Genomic binding by theDrosophilaMyc, Max, Mad/Mnt transcription factor network

Abstract

The Myc/Max/Mad transcription factor network is critically involved in cell behavior; however, there is relatively little information on its genomic binding sites. We have employed the DamID method to carry out global genomic mapping of theDrosophilaMyc, Max, and Mad/Mnt proteins. Each protein was tethered toEscherichia coliDNA adenine-methyltransferase (Dam) permitting methylation proximal to in vivo binding sites inKccells. Microarray analyses of methylated DNA fragments reveals binding to multiple loci on all majorDrosophilachromosomes. This approach also reveals dynamic interactions among network members as we find that increased levels of dMax influence the extent of dMyc, but not dMnt, binding. Computer analysis using the REDUCE algorithm demonstrates that binding regions correlate with the presence of E-boxes, CG repeats, and other sequence motifs. The surprisingly large number of directly bound loci (∼15% of coding regions) suggests that the network interacts widely with the genome. Furthermore, we employ microarray expression analysis to demonstrate that hundreds of DamID-binding loci correspond to genes whose expression is directly regulated by dMyc in larvae. These results suggest that a fundamental aspect of Max network function involves widespread binding and regulation of gene expression.
