NET-CAGE Characterizes the Dynamics and Topology of Human Transcribed Cis-regulatory Elements

ABSTRACT: Promoters and enhancers are key cis-regulatory elements, but how they operate to generate cell-type-specific transcriptomes is not fully understood. We developed a simple and robust approach to sensitively detect 5’-ends of nascent RNAs (NET-CAGE) in diverse cells and tissues, including unstable transcripts such as enhancer-derived RNAs. We studied RNA synthesis and degradation at the transcription start site (TSS) level, characterizing the impact of differential promoter usage on transcript stability. We quantified transcription from cis-regulatory elements without the influence of RNA turnover, and show that enhancer-promoter pairs are generally activated simultaneously upon stimulation. By integrating NET-CAGE data with chromatin interaction maps, we show that cis-regulatory elements are topologically connected according to their cell-type specificity. We identified new enhancers with high sensitivity, and delineated primary locations of transcription within super-enhancers. Our NET-CAGE dataset derived from human and mouse cells expands the FANTOM5 catalogue of transcribed enhancers, with broad applicability to biomedical research.

Coordination of widespread transcription at enhancers and target genes through BRD4 (His-NET-Seq)

Project description:Gene transcription by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is under the control of promoters and distal regulatory elements known as enhancers. Enhancers are themselves transcribed by Pol II which correlates with their activity. How enhancer transcription is regulated and coordinated with transcription at target genes has remained unclear. Here, we developed a high-sensitive native elongating transcript sequencing approach, called HiS-NET-seq, to provide an extended high-resolution view on transcription, especially at lowly transcribed regions such as enhancers. HiS-NET-seq uncovers new transcriptional enhancers in human cells. An integrated multi-omics analysis shows that transcription at most enhancers depends on the BET protein BRD4. We provide evidence for a direct BRD4-mediated coupling of Pol II transcription at enhancers and target genes. Specifically, BRD4 links elongation activation at enhancers and genes by maintaining their proximity. These studies reveal that transcription at enhancers and target genes is coordinated at the level of elongation.

Integrating Enhancer RNA Signatures with Diverse Omics Data identifies characteristics of transcription initiation in pancreatic islets

Project description:Identifying active regulatory elements and their characteristics is critical to understand gene regulatory mechanisms and subsequently better delineating biological mechanisms of complex diseases and traits. Studies have shown that active enhancers can be transcribed into enhancer RNA (eRNA). We identified actively transcribed elements in human pancreatic islets by performing cap analysis of gene expression (CAGE) across 70 islet samples. We used the self-transcribing active regulatory region sequencing (STARR-seq) assay in a rat pancreatic islet beta cell line to experimentally validate the regulatory activity of the CAGE-identified transcribed elements.

Dissection of thousands of cell type-specific enhancers identifies dinucleotide repeat motifs as general enhancer features

Project description:Gene expression is determined by genomic elements called enhancers, which contain short motifs bound by different transcription factors (TFs). However, how enhancer sequences and TF motifs relate to enhancer activity is unknown and general sequence requirements for enhancers or comprehensive sets of important enhancer sequence elements have remained elusive. Here, we computationally dissect thousands of functional enhancer sequences from three different Drosophila cell lines. We find that the enhancers display distinct cis-regulatory sequence signatures, which are predictive of the enhancersM-bM-^@M-^Y cell type-specific or broad activities. These signatures contain transcription factor motifs and a novel class of enhancer sequence elements, dinucleotide repeat motifs (DRMs). DRMs are highly enriched in enhancers, particularly in enhancers that are broadly active across different cell types. We experimentally validate the importance of the identified TF motifs and DRMs for enhancer function and show that they can be sufficient to create an active enhancer de novo from non-functional sequence. The function of DRMs as a novel class of general enhancer features that are also enriched in human regulatory regions might explain their implication in several diseases and provides important insights into gene regulation. STARR-seq was performed in BG3 cells with paired-end sequencing in two replicates and respective inputs.

NET-prism enables RNA polymerase-dedicated transcriptional interrogation at nucleotide resolution

Project description:The advent of quantitative approaches that enable interrogation of transcription at single nucleotide resolution has allowed a novel understanding of transcriptional regulation previously undefined. To better map transcription genome-wide at base pair resolution and with transcription/elongation factor dependency we developed an adapted NET-seq protocol called NET-prism (Native Elongating Transcription by Polymerase-Regulated Immunoprecipitants in the Mammalian genome). NET-prism introduces an immunoprecipitation to capture RNA Pol II – associated proteins, which reveals the interaction of these proteins with active RNA Pol II. Application of NET-prism on different Pol II variants (Pol II S2ph, Pol II S5ph), elongation factors (Spt6, Ssrp1), splicing factors (Sf1), and components of the pre-initiation complex (PIC) (TFIID, and Mediator) reveals diverse Pol II signals, at a single nucleotide resolution, with regards to directionality and intensity over promoters, splice sites, and enhancers/super-enhancers. NET-prism will be broadly applicable as it exposes transcription factor/Pol II dependent topographic specificity and thus, a new degree of regulatory complexity.
