Project description:In this study we have used ChIP followed by high throughput sequencing to profile the genome-wide recruitment of wildtype and non-oligomerizing Groucho (Gro) at high resolution in single cell types (Kc167 and S2R+) using Drosophila cell culture. Our results reveal that Gro is typically recruited to discrete peaks in active chromatin and that blocking Gro oligomerization does not change the width of the peaks to which it is recruited. We have also investigated acetylated histone H3 and H4 and RNA polymerase II profiles around Gro binding sites, along with gene expression, in wildtype, Gro knockdown, Gro-GFP transfected, and non-oligomerizing Gro-GFP transfected Kc167 cells and found that Gro associates with chromatin containing hypoacetylated histones and frequently overlaps the transcription start sites of expressed genes that exhibit strong RNA polymerase pausing.

Project description:We found that MCF7 and ZR751 Sox2-expressing breast cancer cell lines comprise of cells with heterogeneous Sox2 transcription activity reporter response. A small subset of Sox2 reporter responsive cells are more tumourigenic than the bulk Sox2 reporter unresponsive cells. We questioned whether Sox2 exhibit differential gene promoter occupancies in the two cell subsets to govern differential gene expression patterns. Sox2 ChIP in reporter unresponsive (RU) and reporter responsive (RR) cells (duplicate samples) were compared. IgG ChIP in RU and RR cells served as the negative controls.

Project description:Copy number variants (CNV) influence the expression of genes that map not only within, but also on their flanks. To assess the possible mechanism(s) underlying this “neighboring effect”, we compared intrachromosomal interactions and histone modifications in cell lines of patients affected by genomic disorders and control individuals. We detected alteration of intrachromosomal interactions (chromosomal looping) between the loci of affected genes and the rearranged interval using chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq). These results are consistent with the observed gene expression alterations. We also pinpointed concomitant changes in histone modifications between samples. Modified genes were often looping together, possibly forming an interacting cluster. We conclude that large genomic rearrangements can lead to chromatin conformation changes that extend far away from the structural variant, thus possibly modulating expression globally and modifying the phenotype. For example, we observe that the chromatin conformation, histone marks and relative expression levels of the AUTS2 gene, mutations of which are associated with autism and intellectual disabilities, are modified in Williams-Beuren syndrome patients cell lines.

Project description:We performed Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and microarray hybridization analysis of CspC binding in Salmonella Typhimurium strain SL1344 which has been genetically engineered to express a 3xFLAG tagged CspC protein. Chromatin samples were prepared from SL1344 CspC 3xFLAG grown to exponential phase (OD600nm = 0.2). CspC FLAG ChIP and mock normal mouse IgG ChIP reactions were carried out. The purified ChIP DNA samples were hybridized to SL1344 tiling microarrays.

Project description:The LysR family transcription factor LeuO is believed to antagonize the global repressor H-NS. ChIP-on-chip analysis of LeuO, H-NS and RNAP binding to the Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium chromosome demonstrated a high degree of overlap between LeuO and H-NS regulated genes. Furthermore LeuO binding was associated with RNA polymerase recruitment, indicating a role for LeuO in activating transcription.

Project description:Dynamic changes in histone posttranslational modifications (PTMs) are important regulators of chromatin structure and gene transcription in both normal and disease settings. Herein, we describe a novel signaling mechanism of nitric oxide (â¢NO) by demonstrating its ability to modulate gene expression via alteration of histone PTMs. Having established that â¢NO exposure induced differential expression of approximately 6500 genes, we set out to determine if there was an epigenetic component to their regulation. â¢NO exposure led to alterations in the global levels of acetyl and methyl modifications at numerous lysine residues on core histones H3 and H4. Residues H3K9me2/ac were examined further and determined to have differential distribution at various loci throughout the genome in response to â¢NO. Changes in the enrichment levels of H3K9me2/ac at specific genes correlated with changes in the expression levels of their transcripts. Molecular mechanisms contributing to phenotypic outcomes in â¢NO-associated cancers remain to be well understood since traditional modes of â¢NO-signaling do not explain a large proportion of its impact on tumor cell behavior. Our results reveal that â¢NO drives a significant amount of gene expression changes epigenetically by changing the distribution of numerous histone marks. Cultured cells were treated with 500uM DETA/NO to examine the effects of a physiologically relevant â¢NO concentration on differential distribution of H3K9ac/H3K9me2. A total of two untreated biological replicates and two â¢NO-treated biological replicates were harvested. The untreated samples served as control against which comparisons were made to elucidate â¢NO-mediated changes in the histone landscape.

Project description:Identification and characterization of HP1BP3 (a human histone H1 homologue) as a novel chromatin retention factor essential for the co-transcriptional processing of pri-miRNA. We generated BAC transgenic cells at 80% confluency (~1x107) were cross-linked with 1% formaldehyde for 10 minutes at 37°C, and quenched with 125 mM glycine at room temperature for 5 minutes. The fixed cells were washed twice with cold PBS, scraped, and transferred into 1 ml PBS containing protease inhibitors (Roche). After centrifugation at 700 g for 4 minutes at 4°C, the cell pellets were resuspended in 100 μl ChIP lysis buffer (1% SDS, 10 mM EDTA, 50 mM Tris-HCl [pH 8.1] with protease inhibitors) and sonicated at 4°C with a Bioruptor (Diagenode) (30 seconds ON and 30 seconds OFF at highest power for 15 minutes). The sheared chromatin with a fragment length of ~200 â 600 bp) was centrifuged at 20,000 g for 15 minutes at 4°C). 100 μl of the supernatant was used for ChIP or as input. A 1:10 dilution of the solubilized chromatin in ChIP dilution buffer (0.01% SDS, 1.1% Triton X-100, 1.2 mM EDTA, 167 mM NaCl 16.7 mM Tris-HCl [pH 8.1]) was incubated at 4°C overnight with 6 μg/ml of a goat anti-GFP (raised against His-tagged full-length eGFP and affinity-purified with GST-tagged full-length eGFP). Immunoprecipitation was carried out by incubating with 40 μl pre-cleared Protein G Sepharose beads (Amersham Bioscience) for 1 hour at 4°C, followed by five washes for 10 minutes with 1ml of the following buffers: Buffer I: 0.1% SDS, 1% Triton X-100, 2 mM EDTA, 20 mM Tris-HCl [pH 8.1], 150 mM NaCl; Buffer II: 0.1% SDS, 1% Triton X-100, 2 mM EDTA, 20 mM Tris-HCl [pH 8.1], 500 mM NaCl; Buffer III: 0.25 M LiCl, 1% NP-40, 1% deoxycholate, 1 mM EDTA, 10 mM Tris-HCl [pH 8.1]; twice with TE buffer [pH 8.0]. Elution from the beads was performed twice with 100 μl ChIP elution buffer (1% SDS, 0.1 M NaHCO3) at room temperature (RT) for 15 minutes. Protein-DNA complexes were de-crosslinked by heating at 65°C in 192 mM NaCl for 16 hours. DNA fragments were purified using QiaQuick PCR Purification kit (QIAGEN) and eluted into 30 μl H2O according to the manufacturerâs protocol after treatment with RNase A and Proteinase K.

Project description:Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) and its metazoan Trithorax orthologs have been linked with the epigenetic maintenance of transcriptional activity. To identify mechanisms by which MLL perpetuates active transcription in dividing cells, we investigated its role during M-phase of the cell cycle. Unlike other chromatin modifying enzymes examined, we found that MLL associates with gene promoters packaged within condensed mitotic chromosomes. Genome-wide location analysis identified a globally rearranged pattern of MLL occupancy during mitosis in a manner favoring genes that were highly transcribed during interphase. Knockdown experiments revealed that MLL retention at gene promoters during mitosis accelerates transcription reactivation following mitotic exit. MLL tethers Menin, RbBP5, and ASH2L to its occupied sites during mitosis, but is dispensable for preserving histone H3K4 methylation. These findings implicate mitotic bookmarking as a component of Trithorax-based gene regulation which may facilitate inheritance of active gene expression states during cell division. anti-MLL ChIP (antibody 456) and anti-pol2 chip (sc-899) in chromatin prepared from interphase and mitotic HeLa cells
