We hypothesized DNA methylation is altered in skeletal muscle in response to either insulin or glucose exposure. We performed a genome-wide DNA methylation analysis in muscle from healthy men before and after insulin exposure. DNA methylation of selected genes was determined in muscle from healthy and type 2 diabetic men before and after a glucose tolerance test. Insulin altered DNA methylation in the 3’UTR of the calcium pump ATP2A3 gene. Insulin increased DNA methylation in the gene body of DAPK3, a gene involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy.

Here we use nucleosomes methylated on DNA and on histone H3 in an affinity assay, in conjunction with a SILAC-based proteomic analysis, to identify “cross-talk” between these two distinct classes of modification. Our analysis reveals proteins whose binding to nucleosomes is regulated by methylation of CpGs, H3K4, H3K9, and H3K27 or a combination thereof. We identify the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC), including LRWD1 as a subunit, to be a methylation-sensitive nucleosome interactor which is recruited cooperatively by DNA and histone methylation. Other interactors, such as the lysine demethylase Fbxl11/KDM2A, recognise nucleosomes methylated on histones but their recruitment is disrupted by DNA methylation. These data establish SILAC nucleosome affinity purifications (SNAP) as a tool for studying the dynamics between different chromatin modifications and provide a modification binding “profile” for proteins regulated by DNA and histone methylation. 2 Introduction Most of the genetic information of eukaryotic cells is stored in the nucleus in the form of a nucleoprotein complex termed chromatin.

Maglathlin ii Acknowledgements “In the discovery of secret things, and in the investigation of hidden causes, stronger reasons are obtained from sure experiments and demonstrated arguments than from probable conjectures and the opinions of philosophical speculators.” -William Gilbert, Loadstone and Magnetic Bodies, and on The Great Magnet of the Earth, translated from the 1600 edition of De Magnete by P. Fleury Mottelay (Bernard Quaritch, London, 1893) I would like to thank my mentor, Jack Taunton, for instilling in me that “good” is never enough and that greatness is just as much a matter of hard work and perseverance as it is a function of intelligence and insight. I would like to thank Jeff Johnson and Tasha Johnson for their work on the mass spectrometry in Chapter 2. I would also like to thank Gonzalo Ureta and Emma McCullagh of Sebastian Bernales’ Lab (Fundacion Ciencia de la Vida, Chile) for their work cited in Chapter 3. I would like to thank the members of the Taunton Lab, past and present, for their insights, expertise, friendship and general all around awesomeness. I would specifically like to thank Ville, Sarah and Andy for their guidance on this project and for their beautiful work cited herein. I would also like to thank Geoff Smith for his contribution of the STAT5 phosphorylation experiment in Chapter 2.
