Summary (written by the submitters)
DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) is essential for mammalian development and is frequently dysregulated in cancer. While its recruitment to hemi-methylated DNA by UHRF1 is well established, its broader chromatin occupancy and regulation remain unclear. We show that DNMT1 is enriched at unmethylated CpG islands of actively transcribed genes largely by its CXXC domain.
Read the full summary ↓
Upon selective catalytic inhibition, DNMT1 redistributes to partially methylated, inaccessible regions in a UHRF1- and RFTS-dependent manner. Despite minimal changes in coding gene expression, sustained DNMT1 inhibition and subsequent global DNA hypomethylation trigger reactivation of a previously uncharacterised class of dsRNA mega-intergenic transcripts (mintRNAs) driving a cell-intrinsic viral mimicry response. We identify RNF4 as a major regulator of DNMT1 catalytic function that, beyond its canonical role in DNA–protein crosslink resolution, controls the levels of SUMOylated DNMT1, establishing SUMOylation as a rheostat that regulates DNMT1 activity to maintain DNA methylation and safeguard against viral mimicry.

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE329512_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

Raw reads on ENA ↗

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1459374 and SRA study SRP696038. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
