Project description:G9a/GLP and Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) are two major epigenetic silencing machineries, which in particular methylate histone H3 on lysines 9 and 27 (H3K9 and H3K27), respectively. Although evidence of a crosstalk between H3K9 and H3K27 methylations has started to emerge, their actual interplay remains elusive. Here, we show that PRC2 and G9a/GLP interact physically and functionally. Moreover, combining different genome-wide approaches, we demonstrate that Ezh2 and G9a/GLP share an important number of common genomic targets, encoding developmental and neuronal regulators. Furthermore, we show that G9a enzymatic activity modulates PRC2 genomic recruitment to a subset of its target genes. Taken together, our findings demonstrate an unanticipated interplay between two main histone lysine methylation mechanisms, which cooperate to maintain silencing of a subset of developmental genes. ChIP-seq has been performed for G9a and Ezh2 in wild type TT2 mES cells or in mES cells lacking both G9a and GLP (G9a-/-GLP-/-). As a control, input DNA was saved before immunoprecipitation. Note that the two inputs (Input_TT2_0 and Input_TT2_1) have been combined and used as control for Ezh2 and G9a ChIP-seq.

Project description:The histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9)-specific methyltransferase (KMT) Setdb1 is essential for both stem cell pluripotency and terminal differentiation of different cell types. To shed light on Setdb1 role(s) in these mutually exclusive processes, we used mouse skeletal myoblasts as a model of terminal differentiation. Ex vivo studies on isolated single myofibres showed that Setdb1 is required for muscle adult stem cells expansion following activation and in vitro studies on skeletal myoblasts confirmed that Setdb1 suppresses terminal myoblast differentiation. We used genome-wide analyses to identify Setdb1 direct target genes in myoblasts and observed a release of Setdb1 from the promoter of selected target genes upon myoblast terminal differentiation, concomitant to a nuclear export of Setdb1 to the cytoplasm. We demonstrated that both genomic release and cytoplasmic Setdb1 relocalisation during differentiation were dependent on canonical Wnt signalling. Taken together, our findings uncover a functional link between Setdb1 and canonical Wnt signalling in skeletal muscle cells, which affects the expression of a subset of Setdb1 target genes. We revealed Wnt-dependent subcellular relocalisation of Setdb1 as a novel mechanism regulating Setdb1 functions. ChIP-seq of Setdb1 and H3K9me3 in Myoblast cells (C2C12)

Project description:The genome wide ChIP-on-chip analysis to identify the DNA binding sites for the M.tuberculosis sigma factor Rv3286c (SigF) SigF binding sites were determined by microarray analysis of anti-sigF immunoprecipitated DNA from H37Rv(ΔrsbW/sigF)::pmySigF compared to H37Rv(ΔrsbW/sigF)::pMY769 (both cultured with pristinamycin for 3 days). 4 biological replicates were performed.

Project description:Among the most important regulators of gene expression in bacteria are 'nucleoid-associated proteins'. These proteins alter the topology of the bound DNA by bending, wrapping or bridging it, thus having multiple effects, including transcriptional regulation, on the bacterial cell. Among the best-studied nucleoid proteins are H-NS and Fis, which bind to specific sequences on the DNA. H-NS is a global repressor of gene expression. Fis alters the global conformation of the DNA by introducing branched structures in it; but its effect on gene expression on a genomic scale remains largely unclear.<br><br>Several bacterial transcriptional regulators including H-NS and Fis have been studied using ChIP-chip. However, the higher resolution and dynamic range offered by ChIP-Seq have not been exploited for any bacterial species. By performing ChIP-Seq of these two proteins, we present the first such study in a bacterium. In addition to providing a proof-of-principle for the use of this technology for bacteria, we perform our study at multiple time-points during growth in rich medium, thus generating new insights into how these proteins function under different cellular conditions. Further, by analysing our data in conjunction with newly-generated gene expression and RNA polymerase-chromosome interaction data we provide new interpretation of the genome-scale patterns of the interactions of these proteins to the DNA.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation was combined with high-density tiling array (ChIP-chip) and gene expression microarray to reveal the adaptive responses of Escherichia coli to phosphate starvation. The first sketch of the genome-wide distribution of PhoB binding profile was unveiled and 43 regions were identified as the PhoB binding regions. The presence of a significant common motif in these binding regions allowed us to reconstruct the PhoB binding pattern. By comparing the ChIP-chip and microarray datasets, we were also able to identify genes directly or indirectly affected through PhoB regulation. Nineteen out of the 287 differentially expressed genes in the presence and absence of PhoB activity were considered as the genes directly regulated by PhoB. The adaptive responses affected through PhoB regulation are discussed and these responses involve in several important biological functions including transcriptional regulation, transportation, membrane component arrangement, sigma factor modulation and DNA replication inhibition. Comparison of the E. coli K12 MG1655 wild type and a PhoB-FLAG fusion expressing strain (MG1655_PhoB_FLAG). The anti-FLAG antibody was used to recognize PhoB-FLAG fusion protein. Therefore, ChIPed DNA from the wild type strain was used as the control group. Three biological replicates were performed.

Project description:The HASTER promoter region is a cis-regulatory element that stabilizes the transcription of HNF1A, preventing silencing or overexpression. We have generated a mouse model where the promoter of Haster has been specifically deleted in liver (Haster loxP/loxP; AlbCre). In liver the prevailing consequence is upregulation of HNF1A. We performed HNF1A, H3K4me3 and H3K27ac ChIP-seq to assess the impact of HNF1A upregulation on the chromatin landscape of Haster KO liver.

Project description:We identified genome-wide binding patterns of CIC in several different cell types and find that CIC target genes are enriched for MAPK effector genes involved in cell cycle regulation and proliferation. CIC binding to its target genes is abolished by high MAPK activity, which leads to hyperacetylation and their transcriptional activation. Inhibition of MAPK signaling via MEK inhibition leads to recruitment of CIC to its target genes. Expression data of G144 cells after MEK inhibition and CIC knockout is available under accession E-MTAB-6681
