Background: The oligomeric state of the human DNMT3A is functionally important and cancer cells are known to undergo changes in pH (intracellular).Methods: Light scattering, gel filtration, and fluorescence anisotropy. Also, methylation and processivity assays.Conclusions: Physiologically relevant changes in pH result in changes in DNMT3A oligomer composition which have dramatic consequences on DNMT3A function.General significance: The pH changes which occur within cancer cells alter the oligomeric state and function of DNMT3A which could contribute to changes in genomic DNA methylation observed in vivo.
