High-resolution genome-wide dissection of transcriptional regulatory activity and function in human cells

ABSTRACT: Genome-wide profiling of epigenomic marks allows rapid prediction of transcriptional regulatory regions, including promoters and enhancers. However, experimental validation of predicted regions’ effect on gene expression, and high-resolution dissection of driver sequence elements within them, have remained infeasible on a high throughput scale. Here, we describe HiDRA (High-Definition Reporter Assay), a high-throughput episomal assay for the high-resolution dissection of promoter and enhancer activity genome-wide. We applied HiDRA on millions of DNA fragments preferentially extracted from open chromatin. We applied HiDRA to the GM12878 lymphoblastoid cell line, generating a 6.83 million fragment library preferentially extracted from open chromatin, and revealed tens of thousands of genomic regions that significantly drive reporter gene transcription. These regions are enriched for H3K9ac, H3K27ac, other active histone marks, known regulatory motifs, and regions bound by immune regulators. We developed a new algorithm, SHARPR2, to deconvolve fragment-level activity measurements from regulatory regions tiled by dozens to hundreds of offset fragments to enable high-resolution maps of activity patterns, pinpointing individual driver regulatory motifs and predicting driver genetic variants underlying immune diseases. Our results indicate that HiDRA provides a general and scalable high-throughput and high-resolution strategy for experimental dissection of regulatory regions and nucleotides in the context of human biology and disease.

in situ HiPore-C reveals higher-order 3D genome folding principles

Project description:Eukaryotic genomes are folded into three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical architectures consisting of multi-way chromatin contacts that are involved in complex gene regulation. High-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C), chromatin interaction analysis by paired-end tag sequencing (ChIA-PET) , and methods similar to these two rely on pairwise ligation of fragments in proximity in a population of cells, thus fail to reveal multi-way chromatin interactions in single allele at single fragment resolution. To explore higher-order chromatin interaction genome-widely, a straightforward strategy is integrating multi-fragment ligates preparation with third-generation sequencing technology. To achieve this purpose, we developed a protocol of in situ high throughput multi-way contact long read Pore-C sequencing (in situ HiPore-C) We performed genome-wide multi-way contact profiling analysis using data obtained from in situ HiPore-C sequencing of GM12878 and K562 cell lines.

Intrinsic Coupling of Lagging Strand Synthesis to Chromatin Assembly

Project description:We show that ligation-competent Okazaki fragments in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are sized according to the chromatin repeat. Using deep sequencing, we demonstrate that ligation junctions preferentially occur around nucleosome midpoints rather than in internucleosomal linker regions. Disrupting chromatin assembly or lagging strand polymerase processivity impacts both the size and the distribution of Okazaki fragments, suggesting a role for nascent chromatin, assembled immediately after the passage of the replication fork, in the termination of lagging strand synthesis. Our studies represent the first high-resolution analysis of eukaryotic Okazaki fragments in vivo, and establish a mechanistic link between the fundamental processes of DNA replication and chromatin assembly. 4 samples: replicate samples of wild-type and pol32 knockout

Comprehensive, high resolution analysis of cis-acting regulatory networks at the alpha globin locus (HTS)

Project description:We have combined the 4C chromosome conformation capture protocol with high throughput, genome-wide sequence analysis to characterise in full a cis-acting regulatory network at a single locus. In contrast to methods which identify large interacting regions (10-1000kb), the 4C approach provides a comprehensive, high resolution analysis of a specific locus with the aim of defining, in detail, all cis- regulatory elements controlling a single gene or gene cluster. Using the human M-NM-1-globin locus as a model we detected all known local and long-range interactions with this gene cluster. In addition we identified two interactions with genes located 300 kb (NME4) and 625 kb (FAM173a) from the M-NM-1-globin cluster. Using paired-end sequencing it was possible for the first time to identify interactions between specific subsets of cis-regulatory elements in populations of cells and within individual cells.

The Transcriptional Landscape of the Yeast Genome Defined by RNA Sequencing

Project description:The identification of untranslated regions (UTRs), introns, and coding regions within an organism remains challenging. We developed a quantitative sequencing-based method called RNA-Seq in which cDNA fragments are subjected to high throughput sequencing. We applied RNA-Seq to generate a high-resolution transcriptome map of the yeast genomeand demonstrated that most (74.5%) of the nonrepetitive sequence of the yeast genome is transcribed. We confirmed many known and predicted introns and demonstrated that others are not actively used. Alternative initiation codons and upstream open reading frames were also identified for many yeast genes. We also found unexpected 3' end heterogeneity and the presence of many overlapping genes. These results indicate that the yeast transcriptome is more complex than previously appreciated. Keywords: RNA-Seq, mRNA expression profiling, Illumina high-throughput sequencing

Massively parallel quantification of the regulatory effects of non-coding genetic variation [STARR-seq]

Project description:We report a novel high-throughput method to empirically quantify individual-specific regulatory element activity at the population scale. The approach combines targeted DNA capture with a high-throughput reporter-gene expression assay. As demonstration, we have measured the activity of more than 100 putative regulatory elements from 95 individuals in a single experiment. We found that, in agreement with previous reports, most genetic variants have weak effects on distal regulatory element activity. Because haplotypes are typically maintained within but not between assayed regulatory elements, the approach can be used to identify likely causal regulatory haplotypes that contribute to human phenotypes. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of the method to functionally fine map causal regulatory variants in regions of high linkage disequilibrium identified by expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses. 104 candidate regulatory elements from 95 individuals were resequenced using Illumina custom amplicon sequencing. We then cloned the resulting DNA fragments into a massively parallel reporter assay to quantify allele-specific regulatory activity from that population.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of chromatin interaction of lncRNA Gm4665 with regulatory region of target genes in male germ cells.

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to examine the possibility that Gm4665 binds to regulatory region of target genes loci in male germ cells. Methods: we performed the Chromatin Isolation by RNA Purification (ChIRP) assay to examine the possibility that Gm4665 binds to regulatory region of target genes. Germ cell isolated from the testis of wild-type mouse were cross-linked, lysed and sonicated, and then incubated with probesets of Gm4665. Following hybridization of biotinylated probesets to Gm4665 transcript, Gm4665-bound chromatin was retrieved. The purified DNA fragments were sequenced using high throughput next generation sequencing (Illumina HiseqXten-PE150) Results: Analysis of the retrieved chromatin fragments by deep sequencing (ChIRP-seq) revealed Gm4665 occupancy sites were genome wide, specifically abundant enrich in intronic regions. Additionally, nearly 30% of chromatin fragments were enriched in the promoter regions of gene loci

Defining the fine structure of promoter activity on a genome-wide scale with CISSECTOR

Project description:Classic promoter mutagenesis strategies can be used to study how proximal promoter regions regulate the expression of particular genes of interest. This is a laborious process, in which the smallest sub-region of the promoter still capable of recapitulating expression in an ectopic setting is first identified, followed by targeted mutation of putative transcription factor binding sites. Massively parallel reporter assays such as Survey of Regulatory Elements (SuRE) provide an alternative way to study millions of promoter fragments in parallel. Here we show how a generalized linear model (GLM) can be used to transform genome-scale SuRE data into a high-resolution genomic track that quantifies the contribution of local sequence to promoter activity. This coefficient track helps identify regulatory elements and can be used to predict promoter activity of any sub-region in the genome. It thus allows in silico dissection of any promoter in the human genome to be performed. We developed a web application, available at cissector.nki.nl, that lets researchers easily perform this analysis as a starting point for their research into any promoter of interest.
