Project description:Lymphomagenesis in the presence of deregulated MYC expression requires suppression of MYC-driven apoptosis, often through downregulation of the pro-apoptotic BCL2L11 gene (Bim). Transcription factors (EBNAs) encoded by the lymphoma-associated Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) activate MYC and silence BCL2L11. We show that EBNA2 upregulates MYC by reconfiguring the 3 Mb MYC locus to increase upstream and decrease downstream enhancer-promoter interactions. EBNA2 recruits the SWI/SNF ATPase BRG1 to drive MYC enhancer-promoter interactions. MYC-Immunoglobulin translocation breakpoints in EBV-positive endemic Burkitt lymphoma localise to EBNA2-activated upstream MYC regions. This implicates EBV in the genesis and localisation of breakpoints, since active enhancers are targeted by activation-induced cytidine deaminase. We identify a novel haematopoietic BCL2L11 enhancer hub that is inactivated by EBNA3A and EBNA3C through recruitment of the H3K27 methyltransferase EZH2. Reversal of enhancer inactivation using an EZH2 inhibitor upregulates BCL2L11 and induces apoptosis. EBV therefore drives lymphomagenesis by hijacking long-range enhancer hubs and specific cellular co-factors. A study of MYC enhancer-promoter interactions using 4C on induction of MYC by the Epstein-Barr virus transcription factor EBNA2 in a lymphoblastoid cell line.

Project description:Using 4C-Seq experimental procedure we have characterized, in cultured chicken lymphoid and erythroid cells, genome-wide patterns of spatial contacts of several CpG islands scattered along the chromosome 14. A clear tendency for interaction of CpG islands present within the same and different chromosomes has been observed. Accordingly, preferential spatial contacts between Sp1 binding motifs, and other GC-rich genomic elements including DNA sequence motifs capable to form G-quadruplexes were demonstrated. On the other hand, an anchor placed in gene/CpG islands-poor area was found to form spatial contacts with other gene/CpG islands-poor areas within chromosome 14 and other chromosomes. These results corroborate the two compartments model of interphase chromosome spatial organization and suggest that clustering of CpG islands harboring promoters and origins of DNA replication constitutes an important determinant of the 3D organization of eukaryotic genome in the cell nucleus. Using ChIP-Seq experimental procedure we have mapped genome-wide the CTCF deposition sites in chicken lymphoid and erythroid cells subjected to the 4C analysis. A good correlation between the density of these sites and the level of 4C signals was observed for the anchors located in CpG islands. It is thus possible that CTCF contributes to the clustering of CpG islands revealed in our experiments. We applied 4C-seq to map long-range interactions of a CpG island harboring promoter of a housekeeping gene NPRL3 on a genome-wide scale in DT40 and HD3 cell lines in chicken (Gallus gallus). Two replicates per cell line were sequenced in paired-end mode with a depth of 45-64 million reads. We next performed additional 4C experiments on HD3 cells with different 4C anchors. In three experiments anchors were placed on different CpG island on the chromosome 14 that have demonstrated a strong interaction with the NPRL3 anchor (anchors near TSR3, TRAP1, PPL genes). In the forth experiment (anchor GENE-Des) the anchor was placed in a gene-poor area that did not interact with the NPRL3 promoter. The libraries for all anchors were pooled and sequenced in paired-end mode with a total depth of 75 million reads. Anchor NPRL3: two replicates for HD3 and two replicates for DT40 cell lines. Other anchors (TSR3, GENE-Des, TRAP1, PPL): two replicates, pooled library

Project description:The three-dimensional organization of chromatin has a critical impact on the regulation of gene expression. However, little is known about the effect of DNA copy number variants (CNVs) on chromatin organization. We performed an allele-specific chromatin conformation and gene expression analysis of wild-type (WT) mouse chromosome 4 and an engineered 4.3Mb chromosome 4 deletion in mouse embryonic fibroblasts. A newly developed quantitative framework for the analysis of paired-end 4C-seq data revealed a number of significant differentially interacting regions (DIRs) and higher-order chromatin compaction changes present in the deletion chromosome. Selected DIRs were validated by 3D DNA FISH experiments. We discovered a significant enrichment of CTCF and Smc1 binding sites within DIRs, as well as differentially expressed genes determined by RNA-Seq. Together, our findings highlight the complex effects of a 4E2 CNV on chromatin structure and function, both locally in the deletion chromosome and globally in the WT copy.

Project description:Hox genes are essential regulators of embryonic development. They are activated in a temporal sequence following their topological order within their genomic clusters. Subsequently, states of activity are fine-tuned and maintained to translate into domains of progressively overlapping gene products. While the mechanisms underlying such temporal and spatial progressions begin to be understood, many of their aspects remain unclear. We have systematically analyzed the 3D chromatin organization of Hox clusters in vivo, during their activation using high-resolution circular chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq). Initially, Hox clusters are organized as single 3D chromatin compartments decorated with bivalent chromatin marks. Their progressive transcriptional activation is associated with a dynamic bi-modal 3D organization, whereby the genes switch one after the other, from an inactive to an active 3D compartment. These local 3D dynamics occur within a larger constitutive framework of interactions within the surrounding Topological Associated Domains, which confirms previous results that regulation of this process in primarily cluster intrinsic. The local step-wise progression in time can be stopped and memorized at various body levels and hence it may accounts for the various chromatin architectures previously described at different anterior to posterior body levels for the same embryo at a later stage. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C-seq) samples from mouse ES cells and mouse embryonic samples at different stages of development. Data based on 41 biological samples.

Project description:Insulin (INS) synthesis and secretion from pancreatic M-NM-2 cells are tightly regulated; their deregulation causes diabetes. Here we map INS-associated loci in human pancreatic islets by 4C and 3C techniques and show that the INS gene physically interacts with the SYT8 gene, located over 300 kb away. This interaction is elevated by glucose and accompanied by increases in SYT8 expression. Inactivation of the INS promoter by promoter-targeting siRNA reduces SYT8 gene expression. SYT8-INS interaction and SYT8 transcription are attenuated by CTCF depletion. Furthermore, SYT8 knockdown decreases insulin secretion in islets. These results reveal a non-redundant role for SYT8 in insulin secretion and indicate that the INS promoter acts from a distance to stimulate SYT8 transcription. This suggests a function for the INS promoter in coordinating insulin transcription and secretion through long-range regulation of SYT8 expression in human islets. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C)-Seq experiments to profile interactions of INS promoter in human pancreatic islets isolated from two donors: donor 1 and donor 2.
