Tracks represent sequence tag enrichments for Chd7, H3K27Ac, Olig2, Brg1, H3K4me3 and IgG. Genome scale bars: 5 kb.(i) MEME analysis of the most highly represented de novo motif in the Chd7 cistrome in OLs. Sox10 binding motif was identified as the most significant matching binding site. Letter size indicates nucleotide frequency (presented as ‘bits’) at each position (horizontal axis).(j,k) Co-immunoprecipitation of HA-Sox10 with Chd7 from transiently transfected 293T cells (j) or endogenous Sox10 with Chd7 in differentiating Oli-Neu cells (k).
