Genome-wide mapping of Cbx3/HP1g deposition in wild-type CD8+ effector T cells
We report the application of Illumina Hi-Seq sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of Cbx3/HP1g deposition in mammalian CD8+ effector T cells. By obtaining over four billion bases of sequence from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA, genome-wide chromatin-state maps of mouse wt CD8+ effector T cells were generated. We find that Cbx3/HP1g negatively regulates the germinal center and high-affinity antibody responses in a CD8+ T-cell-dependent manner. CD8-restricted deletion of Cbx3/HP1g confers hightened effector and persistence capacity on CD8+ effector T cells. As a result, Cbx3/HP1g-deficient CD8+ effector T cells can efficiently control solid tumor growth in vairious mouse models (melanoma, ovarian and neuroblstoma).
