Mapping of H3K4 and H3K27 trimethylation in zebrafish cells (ChIP-chip)

ABSTRACT: The genomic distribution of post-translationally modified histones in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) genome remain largely unraveled. The objective of this study was to (1) design a microarray covering all zebrafish gene promoters and 5' end of coding regions, and (ii) using these arrrays, map the genome-wide distribution of trimethylated H3K4 and H3K27 in the mbryo derived ZF4 cell line. Specifically, we determined teh enrichment profile of H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and of both (co-enriched) modifications in ZF4 cells. We determined average enrichment profiles through metagene analysis, functional terms enriched among genes marked by either modification, and pathway analysis. ChIP-chip experiments were performed from duplicate cultures

<h4>Background</h4>Uncovering epigenetic states by chromatin immunoprecipitation and microarray hybridization (ChIP-chip) has significantly contributed to the understanding of gene regulation at the genome-scale level. Many studies have been carried out in mice and humans; however limited high-resolution information exists to date for non-mammalian vertebrate species.<h4>Principal findings</h4>We report a 2.1-million feature high-resolution Nimblegen tiling microarray for ChIP-chip interrogation ...[more]

Project description:Epigenetic environment of histone H3.3 on promoters revealed by integration of imaging and genome-scale chromatin and methyl-DNA immunoprecipitation information. Chromatin regions with different transcriptional outputs are distinguished by the deposition of histone variants. Histone H3.3 is incorporated into chromatin in a replication-independent manner; yet the relationship between H3.3 deposition, chromatin environment is incompletely understood. We have integrated imaging and genome-scale chromatin and methyl-DNA immunoprecipitation approaches to investigate the genomic distribution of epitope-tagged H3.3 in relation to histone modifications, DNA methylation and transcription. Results: Imaging shows that H3.3, in contrast to replicative H3.1 or H2B, is enriched in chromatin marked by histone modifications of active genes. A genome-wide survey identifies 1,649 H3.3-enriched promoters, only a subset of which is co-enriched in H3K4me3, H3K9me3 and/or H3K27me3, with a preference for H3K4me3, corroborating imaging data. H3.3-enriched promoters are depleted of H3.3 at the TSS in a transcription-independent manner. H3.3 is found predominantly on CpG-rich unmethylated promoters, creating a condition favourable for transcription. In undifferentiated mesenchymal stem cells, H3.3 target genes are linked to signaling and mesodermal differentiation, suggesting that H3.3 may be a mark of lineage priming. Conclusions: A minor fraction of H3.3 is targeted to promoters, which are predominantly CpG-rich, DNA unmethylated and devoid of detectable trimethylated H3K4, K9 and K27. Among H3.3 target promoters co-marked by methylated H3, H4K4me3 is preferred, with or without H3K27me3, arguing that in mesenchymal stem cells H3.3 marks transcriptionally active or potentially active promoters.
