10 Infinium HumanMethylation27 BeadChip The workflow... Bisulfate conversion Whole genome amplification Enzymatic fragmentation Hybridization Scanning

11 Infinium HumanMethylation27 BeadChip Background Bisulfate modification: - unmethylated C converted to U - methylated C protected from conversion Site specific probes - U & M bead type (unmethylated and methylated) - hybridization followed by a single base extension Continuous measurement: β value: 0-1

12 Aim of the Project Determine extent and frequency of methylation in FL Correlate with gene expression Correlate with clinical data Follow anything exciting

33 Summary Aberrant hypermethylation in >700 genes in FL Early pre-programmed methylation of large number of development-related genes Occurs in approximately 8% of CpG islands Genes marked by bivalent domains in ES cells Wide variability in immunohistochemical H3K27Me3 expression in FL Frequent mutation of histone methylase EZH2 in FL

34 Current Plans To test methylation profile as an outcome predictor (choosing high tumour burden biopsies 600 cases). Determine the effects of EZH2 Y641 mutation on clinical outcome. To correlate EZH2/H3K27me3 promoter occupancy with DNA methylation in order to identify methylation dependent and independent PRC2 target genes Determine the effects of EZH2/H3K27m3 and DNA methylation inhibition on primary and FL cell lines. Other mechanisms regulating H3K27me3
