Functional evaluation of transposable elements as transcriptional enhancers in mouse embryonic and trophoblast stem cells [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Transposable elements (TEs) appear to have contributed to the evolution of tissue-specific gene regulatory networks in contexts such as early development, pregnancy and innate immunity, amongst others. In mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), TE families such as RLTR13D6 bind key pluripotency-associated transcription factors and are enriched for histone marks that are characteristic of distal enhancers. However, it remains unclear to what extent such lineage-specific TEs are important for maintaining gene expression programmes during preimplantation development. Here we have tested the gene regulatory function of RLTR13D6 elements in ESCs using epigenetic editing approaches. Whilst we identify some elements that are important to drive gene expression, these constitute a minority of all the putative TE-derived enhancers identified through epigenomic analyses, highlighting the importance of functional tests when assessing the contribution of TEs to gene regulatory networks.

Tranposable elements modulate human mRNAs and lncRNAs via specific RNA-protein interactions.

Project description:Transposable elements (TEs) have significantly influenced the evolution of transcriptional regulatory networks in the human genome. Post-transcriptional regulation of human genes by TE-derived sequences has been observed in specific contexts, but has yet to be systematically and comprehensively investigated. Here, studied a collection of CLIP-Seq (CrossLinked ImmunoPrecipitation) experiments mapping the RNA binding sites for a diverse set of 46 human proteins across 68 experiments to explore the role of TEs in post-transcriptional regulation genome-wide via RNA-protein interactions. We detected widespread interactions between RNA binding proteins (RBPs) and various families of TE-derived sequence in the CLIP-Seq data. Alignment coverage clustered on specific positions of the TE consensus sequences, illuminating a diversity of TE-specific motifs for many RBPs. Evidence of binding and conservation of these motifs in the nonrepetitive transcriptome suggest that TEs have appropriated existing sequence preferences of the RBP. Upon depletion of the RBPs, transcripts possessing TE-derived binding sites were similarly regulated as those bound in nonrepetitive sequence. However, in a few cases the effect of RBP binding depended on the specific TE family boundM-bM-^@M-^Te.g., the ubiquitously expressed RBP HuR conferred opposite effects on stability to transcripts when bound to Alu elements versus other families. Our meta-analysis suggests a widespread role for TEs in shaping RNA-protein regulatory networks in the human genome. HuR formaldehyde RIP-Seq in K562 cells, with RIP and input sequenced in triplicate.

Transposable elements as lineage-specific enhancers in endodermal-lineage cancers (ATAC-Seq)

Project description:Transposable elements (TE) are repetitive genomic elements that harbor binding sites for human transcription factors (TF). A regulatory role for TEs has been suggested in embryonal development and diseases such as cancer but systematic investigation of their functions has been limited by their widespread silencing in the genome. Here, we have utilized unbiased massively parallel reporter assay data using whole human genome library to identify TEs with functional enhancer activity in two human cancer types of endodermal lineage, colorectal and liver cancers. We show that the identified TE enhancers are characterized by genomic features associated with active enhancers, such as epigenetic marks and TF binding. Importantly, we identified distinct TE subfamilies that function as tissue-specific enhancers, namely MER11- and LTR12-elements in colon and liver cancers, respectively. These elements are bound by distinct TFs in each cell type, and they have predicted associations to differentially expressed genes. In conclusion, these data demonstrate how different cancer types can utilize distinct TEs as tissue-specific enhancers.

Hominid-specific transposable elements and KRAB-ZFPs facilitate human embryonic genome activation and transcription in naïve hESCs [RNA-seq]

Project description:Transposable elements (TEs) are key to the evolutionary turnover of regulatory sequences. How they can play such an essential role in spite of their genotoxic potential is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that KRABcontaining zinc finger proteins control the timely and pleiotropic engagement of TE-derived cis-regulators of transcription. We first observed that evolutionary recent TEs of the SVA, HERVK and HERVH subgroups are major contributors to chromatin opening during human embryonic genome activation and act as KLF-stimulated enhancers in naïve embryonic stem cells. We then found that KZFPs of corresponding evolutionary ages are simultaneously induced and repress the transcriptional activity of these TEs. We finally determined that the same KZFP-controlled TE-based enhancers later serve as developmental and tissue-specific regulators of gene expression. Thus, by taming the transcriptional impact of TEs during early embryogenesis, KZFPs allow for their genome-wide incorporation into transcriptional networks, thereby contributing to the species-specificity of human genome regulation.
