Project description:Chromatin accessibility and modification is a hallmark of regulatory DNA, which has led to the discovery of cis-regulatory elements (CREs). Here, we characterize chromatin accessibility, histone modifications and sequence conservation in 13 plant species. We identified thousands of putative CREs and revealed that distal CREs are prevalent in plants especially in species with large and complex genomes. The majority of distal CREs have been moved away from their target genes by transposable element (TE) proliferation, but a significant number of distal CREs also appear to be created by TEs. Finally, plant distal CREs are associated with three major types of chromatin signatures that are distinct from metazoans. Taken together, these results suggest that CREs are prevalent in plants, highly dynamic during evolution, and function with distinct chromatin pathways to regulate gene expression.

Project description:Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) fine-tune gene transcription during normal growth and development and environmental stress responses in eukaryotes. CREs with sequence variations play vital roles in driving plant or crop domestication. However, how global genomic sequence and structural variations causative for multi-level changes between Indica and Japonica are still less studied. To answer this question, we here conducted MH-seq (MNase hypersensitive sequencing) for global profiling of open chromatin (MNase hypersensitive sites, MHSs) between two typical Oryza sativa cultivars, Nipponbare (NIP) and 93-11. We found that differential MHSs exhibited some distinct intrinsic genomic sequence features between NIP and 93-11. Moreover, MHSs can coordinate with DNA sequence or genomic structural variations in the regulation of differential gene expression between NIP and 93-11. Importantly, by applying MHS-GWAS association analyses, we found that CREs with sequence variations may act as the key determinant for controlling expression of genes responsible for some biological relevance in NIP and 93-11. Therefore, this study provides new insights into how sequence and genomic structural variations function in differential biological relevance and key crop agronomic traits between Indica and Japonica. It also provides some promising genomic editing targets for molecular breeding to improve favorable agronomic trait.

Project description:Many intergenic long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) loci regulate the expression of adjacent protein coding genes. Less clear is whether intergenic lncRNAs commonly regulate transcription by modulating chromatin at genomically distant loci. Here, we report both genomically local and distal RNA-dependent roles of Dali, a conserved central nervous system expressed intergenic lncRNA. Dali is transcribed downstream of the Pou3f3 transcription factor gene and its depletion disrupts the differentiation of neuroblastoma cells. Locally, Dali transcript regulates transcription of the Pou3f3 locus. Distally, it preferentially targets active promoters and regulates expression of neural differentiation genes, in part through physical association with the POU3F3 protein. Dali interacts with the DNMT1 DNA methyltransferase in mouse and human and regulates DNA methylation status of CpG island-associated promoters in trans. These results demonstrate, for the first time, that a single intergenic lncRNA controls the activity and methylation of genomically distal regulatory elements to modulate large-scale transcriptional programmes. N2A cells transfected with a non-targeting control vector were compared to N2A cells transfected with a Dali knockdown construct. Three biological replicates of each condition were analysed on Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.

Proliferating and retinoic acid (RA-) differentiated N2A cells stably transfected with a non-targeting (scrambled) control vector were compared to proliferating and RA-differentiated N2A cells stably transfected with a Dali knockdown construct. Three biological replicates of each cell type and condition were analysed on Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.

These results demonstrate, for the first time, that a single intergenic lncRNA controls the activity and methylation of genomically distal regulatory elements to modulate large-scale transcriptional programmes. The genome-wide binding profile of Dali was determined using Capture Hybridisation Analysis of RNA Targets (CHART)-Seq technique (Simon et al, Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 108: 20497-20502, 2011) in N2A cells. Following the CHART-seq protocol, we used RNase H elution to recover genomic DNA associated with endogenous Dali transcripts. We identified Dali binding sites in comparison both to an input DNA sample from N2A cells and to DNA recovered using the control E.coli LacZ oligonucleotide. Please note that n2a_input, n2a_LacZ data was published previously [GSE52571]
