DNMT1 cooperates with MBD4 to inhibit the expression of Glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein in human T cells

Glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein (GITR) is constitutively expressed in T regulatory (Treg) cells and regulates their suppressive function. We identified two methylated CpG islands in the Gitr locus. Using a ChIP assay, we demonstrate that both DNMT1 and methyl-CpG-binding domain Protein 4...
