uhrf1 mutants possess hypomethylated genomic DNA. Genomic DNA methylation assay in which 750 ng of genomic DNA is digested by a methylation-sensitive enzyme (HpaII), a methylation-insensitive enzyme (MspI), or a mock digestion with no enzyme present. (A) Genomic DNA isolated from Wild-type AB, dnmt1 siblings or dnmt1 mutant embryos demonstrates the efficacy of the assay. Genomic DNA is digested by the methylation-sensitive HpaII to a greater extent in the mutant embryos than in siblings or wild-types. (B) Genomic DNA isolated from Wild-type AB, uhrf1 siblings or uhrf1 mutant embryos; uhrf1 mutant DNA is digested by the methylation sensitive HpaII to a greater extent than sibling or wild-type DNA. (C) SouthWestern assay to quantify 5-methylcytosine levels on genomic DNA. 2 µg of genomic DNA is extracted from the indicated group of embryos, loaded onto a membrane and probed with anti-5-methylcytosine antibody. (D) Quantification of 5-methylcytosine levels (n = 8 trials; *** p < 0.00002). Error bars represent s.e.m. |
