NextPBM - A platform to study cell-specific transcription factor binding and cooperativity [array]

ABSTRACT: High-throughput (HT) in vitro methods for measuring protein-DNA binding have become invaluable for characterizing transcription factor (TF) complexes and modeling gene regulation. However, current methods do not utilize endogenous proteins and, therefore, do not quantify the impact of cell-specific post-translational modifications (PTMs) and cooperative cofactors. We introduce the HT nextPBM (nuclear extract protein-binding microarray) approach to study DNA binding of native cellular TFs that accounts for PTMs and cell-specific cofactors. We integrate immune-depletion and phosphatase-treatment steps into our nextPBM pipeline to characterize the impact of cofactors and phosphorylation on TF binding. We analyze binding of PU.1/SPI1 and IRF8 from human monocytes, delineate DNA-sequence determinants for their cooperativity, and show how PU.1 affinity correlates with enhancer status and the presence of cooperative and collaborative cofactors. We describe how nextPBMs, and our accompanying computational framework, can be used to discover cell-specific cofactors, screen for synthetic cooperative DNA elements, and characterize TF cooperativity at single-nucleotide resolution.

Cooperative Binding between distant Transcription Factors is a Hallmark of Active Enhancers

Project description:Enhancers harbor binding motifs that recruit transcription factors (TFs) for gene activation. While cooperative binding of TFs at enhancers is known to be critical for transcriptional activation of a handful of developmental enhancers, the extent TF cooperativity genome-wide is unknown. Here, we couple high-resolution nuclease footprinting with single-molecule methylation profiling to characterize TF cooperativity at active enhancers in the Drosophila genome. Enrichment of short MNase-protected DNA segments indicates that the majority of enhancers harbor two or more TF binding sites, and we uncover protected fragments that correspond to co-bound sites in thousands of enhancers. We integrate MNase-seq, methylation accessibility profiling, and CUT&RUN chromatin profiling as a comprehensive strategy to characterize co-binding of the Trithorax-like (TRL) DNA binding protein and multiple other TFs. We identify states where an enhancer is bound by no TF, by either single factor, by multiple factors, or where binding sites are occluded by nucleosomes. From the analysis of co-binding, we find that cooperativity dominates TF binding in vivo at a majority of active enhancers. Factor cooperativity occurs predominantly between sites spaced 50 bp apart in active enhancers, indicating that most TF cooperativity in cells occurs without apparent protein-protein interactions. Our findings suggest a mechanism for nucleosomes to promote cooperativity by requiring co-binding to effectively clear nucleosomes and promote enhancer function.

High-throughput data and modeling reveal insights into the mechanisms of cooperative DNA-binding by transcription factor proteins (ETS1 and RUNX1)

Project description:Cooperative DNA-binding by transcription factor (TF) proteins is critical for gene expression regulation in eukaryotes. In the human genome, many regulatory regions contain TF binding sites in close proximity to each other, which can facilitate cooperative interactions. However, binding site proximity does not necessarily imply cooperative binding, as two TFs could also bind independently to each of their neighboring target sites. Currently, the rules that drive cooperative versus independent binding of TFs to neighboring sites are not well understood. In addition, it is oftentimes difficult to infer direct cooperativity between TFs from existing DNA-binding data. Here, we show that in vitro binding assays using DNA libraries of a few thousand genomic sequences with putative cooperative TF binding events can be used to develop accurate models of cooperativity and to gain insights into cooperative binding mechanisms. Using human factors ETS1 and RUNX1 as our case study, we show that the distance and orientation between ETS1 sites are critical determinants of cooperative ETS1-ETS1 binding, while cooperative ETS1- RUNX1 interactions show more flexibility in distance and orientation and can be accurately predicted based on binding affinity and the sequence/shape features of the binding sites. The approach described here, combining custom experimental design with machine learning modeling, can be easily applied to study the cooperative DNA-binding patterns of any TFs.

Coop-seq: quantitative measurement of cooperative binding between transcription factors to hundreds of variants simultaneously

Project description:Cooperative binding of transcription factors is known to be important in the regulation of many promoters and enhancers, but current methods to measure cooperativity parameters have been laborious and therefore limited to studying only a few sequence variants at a time. Coop-seq (cooperativity by sequencing) is capable of efficiently and accurately determining the cooperativity parameters for hundreds of different DNA sequences in a single experiment, which we demonstrate using members of the Sox and POU families of transcription factors. Spec-seq directly measures specificity by sequencing. We run an EMSA experiment on TF of interest with a library of DNA targets. Then we extract and sequence the bound and unbound portion of the DNA separately. Finally we count the occurences of each variant in the library and calculate the ratio and the relative binding energy.

DNA-guided transcription factor cooperativity shapes face and limb mesenchyme [RNA-seq]

Project description:Transcription factors (TFs) can define distinct cellular identities despite nearly identical DNA-binding specificities. One mechanism for achieving regulatory specificity is DNA-guided TF cooperativity. Although in vitro studies suggest it may be common, examples of such cooperativity remain scarce in cellular contexts. Here, we demonstrate how ‘Coordinator’, a long DNA motif comprised of common motifs bound by many basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) and homeodomain (HD) TFs, uniquely defines regulatory regions of embryonic face and limb mesenchyme. Coordinator guides cooperative and selective binding between the bHLH family mesenchymal regulator TWIST1 and a collective of HD factors associated with regional identities in the face and limb. TWIST1 is required for HD binding and open chromatin at Coordinator sites, while HD factors stabilize TWIST1 occupancy at Coordinator and titrate it away from HD-independent sites. This cooperativity results in shared regulation of genes involved in cell-type and positional identities, and ultimately shapes facial morphology and evolution.

Transcription factor binding on designed libraries measured by CCRAs

Project description:We measured transcription factor binding and expression of designed syththetic promoter libraries using Calling Cards Reporter Arrays (CCRAs). In this study, we showed that CCRAs is able to make quantatitive measurements for many TFs in yeast. We then demonstrate the quantitative analysis of cooperative interactions by measuring Cbf1p binding at synthetic promoters with multiple sites. Finally, we characterize the binding and expression of a group of TFs, Tye7p, Gcr1p, and Gcr2p, that act together as a “TF collective”, an important but poorly characterized model of TF cooperativity. We demonstrate that Tye7p often binds promoters without its recognition site because it is recruited by other collective members, whereas these other members require their recognition sites, suggesting a hierarchy where these factors recruit Tye7p but not vice versa. Our experiments establish CCRA as a useful tool for quantitative investigations into TF binding and function.
