Fig 1: Characterization of iPSC-CMs with knockin of CHD gene-associated noncoding DNVs.a. BCOR downregulation in SMAD2 Het and KO iPSC-CMs. Gene expression was measured by RNA-seq. One-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparison test versus WT. n = 3. b. Effect of ncDNVs on binding of transcription factors to CREs near CHD genes. 39 bp duplexes centered on ncDNVs neighboring 4 CHD genes were synthesized. Binding of purified, recombinant proteins to the REF or ALT sequence was measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). SMAD2 and HIC2 bound CREs near BCOR and ACVRL1 more strongly for REF compared to ALT. In contrast, SRF and TBX20 bound CREs near ADAMTS6 and MYOCD more strongly for ALT compared to REF. Note lower free probe in MYOCD-ALT compared to REF. Results are representative of at least three independent experiments. Quantification of TBX20 EMSA: mean ± SD; n = 3; two-sided t-test. Graphs in a and b show mean ± SD.
