CUT&RUN profiling with EHMT2 antibody reveals the expected genomic enrichment pattern in cells. Representative genome browser tracks show CUT&RUN data generated using the CUTANA™ CUT&RUN Kit (EpiCypher 14-1048) with EHMT2 antibody (Abcam ab185050, 0.5 µg). 500,000 HeLa cells were used per reaction. IgG, H3K4me3, and H3K27me3 antibodies were included as controls to assess non-specific background, active promoters, and repressed chromatin, respectively. Libraries were prepared using the CUTANA™ CUT&RUN Library Prep Kit (EpiCypher 14-1001). Sequencing was performed with paired-end 50 bp reads, and data were processed on CUTANA™ Cloud (cloud.epicypher.com) by alignment to the hg38 genome. Images were generated using Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV, Broad Institute).

ChIC/CUT&RUN was performed using a pAG-MNAse at a final concentration of 700 ng/mL. 2.5X10^5 of Human wild-type HeLa cell line (ab255928) or EHMT2 (G9A) knockout HeLa cell line (ab265149) were used along with 5µg of ab185050 [EPR18894]. Assay Quality Control was conducted using 5µg Anti-CTCF (ab188408) on the same cell lines. The resulting DNA was sequenced on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 to a depth of 10 million reads. The negative IgG control ab172730 is also shown. Additional screenshots of mapped reads can be found in the Protocol booklet in the Product Protocol section.

Biological function summary
EHMT2/G9a regulates gene expression by altering chromatin accessibility. It is part of a chromatin remodeling complex interacting with proteins such as ANMTA02. Through its methyltransferase activity it maintains an epigenetic silence state important for embryonic development differentiation and cellular identity. EHMT2/G9a plays a significant role in the repression of transcriptional activity of tumor suppressor genes and developmental genes.
Pathways
G9a functions in epigenetic signaling pathways and influences processes like the cell cycle and DNA damage repair. It interacts with proteins in the Polycomb repressive complex such as EZH2 to regulate gene silencing. Additionally in the DNA damage response pathway G9a can associate with histone deacetylases to stabilize chromatin and prevent unwarranted gene expression.
