The mechanisms underlying the generation of genomic methylation patterns are still poorly understood. Using mass spectrometry and a phosphospecific Dnmt3a antibody, we demonstrate that CK2 phosphorylates endogenous Dnmt3a at two key residues located near its PWWP domain, thereby downregulating the ability of Dnmt3a to methylate DNA. Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis shows that CK2 primarily modulates CpG methylation of several repeats, most notably of Alu SINEs. This modulation can be directly attributed to CK2-mediated phosphorylation of Dnmt3a. We also find that CK2-mediated phosphorylation is required for localization of Dnmt3a to heterochromatin. By revealing phosphorylation as a mode of regulation of de novo DNA methyltransferase function and by uncovering a mechanism for the regulation of methylation at repetitive elements, our results shed light on the origin of DNA methylation patterns. cc-by (c) Deplus, Rachel et al., 2014 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Fosforilació Metilació ADN Epigenètica Phosphorylation Methylation DNA Epigenetics Regulation of DNA Methylation Patterns by CK2-Mediated Phosphorylation of Dnmt3a info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion
