摘要

The dynamic changes and structural patterns of DNA methylation of genes without CpG islands are poorly characterized. The relevance of CpG to the non-CpG methylation equilibrium in transcriptional repression is unknown. In this work, we analyzed the DNA methylation pattern of the 5'-flanking of the myogenin gene, a positive regulator of muscle differentiation with no CpG island and low CpG density, in both C2C12 muscle satellite cells and embryonic muscle. Embryonic brain was studied as a non-expressing tissue. High levels of both CpG and non-CpG methylation were observed in non-expressing experimental conditions. Both CpG and non-CpG methylation rapidly dropped during muscle differentiation and myogenin transcriptional activation, with an active demethylation dynamics. Non-CpG demethylation occurred more rapidly than CpG demethylation. Demethylation spread from initially highly methylated short CpC-rich elements to a virtually unmethylated status. These short elements have a high CpC content and density, share some motifs and largely coincide with putative recognition sequences of some differentiation-related transcription factors. Our findings point to a dynamically controlled equilibrium between CpG and non-CpG active demethylation in the transcriptional control of tissue-specific genes. The short CpC-rich elements are new structural features of the methylation machinery, whose functions may include priming the complete demethylation of a transcriptionally crucial DNA region.
