Previous studies have shown that c-Myc tends to occupy the promoter regions of protein-coding genes ( Chen et?al., 2008; Fernandez et?al., 2003; Guccione et?al., 2006; Kidder et?al., 2008; Li et?al., 2003; Rahl et?al., 2010; Zeller et?al., 2006), so we focused our initial analysis on the 2 kb regions surrounding the transcription start sites of such genes. The results showed that c-Myc generally occupies the core promoters of actively transcribed genes, as evidenced by co-occupancy with RNA Pol II ( Figure?1E). Furthermore, increased levels of c-Myc led to increased c-Myc signal at the core promoters of these genes, as evidenced by inspection of individual gene tracks [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sclareol Sclareol] and genome-wide analysis ( Figures 1E�C1H). Interestingly, the effect of increasing c-Myc levels by 28-fold in this system had only a small effect on the total number of genes that were bound by c-Myc or the total number that were actively transcribed ( Figure?1I, Table S1). Instead, the predominant effect of increased levels of c-Myc was increased binding to the promoters of the same set of active genes. The DNA binding and transcriptional activities of c-Myc require heterodimerization with Max (Blackwood and Eisenman, 1991; Blackwood et?al., 1992; Prendergast et?al., [http://www.selleckchem.com/products/PLX-4032.html Vemurafenib] 1991), so all sites bound by c-Myc should be bound by Max. Indeed, ChIP-seq analysis revealed that Max co-occupied essentially all c-Myc-bound promoter sites (Figure?S1B). Furthermore, analysis of the c-Myc binding sites at core promoters revealed these sequences are highly enriched for the known c-Myc/Max E-box binding motif (CACGTG) (p value?[http://www.selleckchem.com/products/AZD2281(Olaparib).html check details] increased binding by c-Myc/Max heterodimers at the E-box-containing core promoter sequences of actively transcribed genes. A search for c-Myc binding events outside the core promoter regions of protein-coding genes revealed that enhancers associated with active genes became occupied by c-Myc in cells with elevated levels of the factor (Figure?2). It was also evident that rRNA and tRNA genes became occupied by c-Myc (Figure?2A), as reported previously (Arabi et?al., 2005; Gomez-Roman et?al., 2003; Grandori et?al., 2005). c-Myc was not enriched at transcriptionally silent genes (genes lacking evidence of RNA Pol II) in cells with low or high levels of the factor. Increases in the levels of c-Myc led to substantial increases in its levels at enhancers of active genes (Figures 2B and 2C; Figures S2A and S2B). As expected, the c-Myc heterodimer partner, Max, occupied essentially all the enhancer sites that were bound by c-Myc (Figure?S2C).
