Gene Specific Activation Driven by Small Molecules

ABSTRACT: Differing levels of chromatin compaction throughout the genome contribute to cell specificity and function. The importance of studying this complex processes is highlighted by the frequency of chromatin dysregulation in human diseases, which has led to the development of chromatin-based therapies in the clinic. To study this pathway, we designed a novel chemical-based system to redirect specific chromatin modifying machinery in a targeted and reversible manner. We synthesized a new class of bi-functional compounds, Chemical Epigenetic Modifiers (CEM)s, with one warhead arm that engages endogenous chromatin regulators, while the other targeting arm tethers the captured epigenetic regulatory machinery to the gene of interest. By redirecting endogenous chromatin regulatory machinery, we are able to control expression in a gene-specific manner.

Bioorthogonal Chemical Epigenetic Modifiers Enable Dose-dependent CRISPR Targeted Gene Activation

Project description:CRISPR-Cas9 systems have been developed to regulate gene expression by using either fusions to epigenetic regulators or, more recently, through the use of chemically mediated strategies. These approaches have armed researchers with new tools to examine the function of proteins by intricately controlling expression levels of specific genes. Here, we present a CRISPR based chemical approach that uses a new Chemical Epigenetic Modifier (CEM) to hone to a gene targeted with a catalytically inactive Cas9 (dCas9) bridged to an FK506-binding protein (FKBP). One arm of the bifunctional CEM recruits BRD4 to the target site and the other arm is composed of a bumped ligand that binds to a mutant FKBP with a compensatory hole at F36V. This bump-and-hole strategy allows for activation of target genes in a dose dependent and reversible fashion with increased specificity and high efficacy.

The SPOC proteins DIDO3 and PHF3 co-regulate gene expression and neuronal differentiation - 3' RNA-seq

Project description:Transcription is regulated by a multitude of activators and repressors, which bind to the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) machinery and modulate its progression. Death-inducer obliterator (DIDO) and PHD finger protein 3 (PHF3) are paralogue proteins that regulate transcription elongation by docking onto phosphorylated serine-2 in the C-terminal domain (CTD) of Pol II through their SPOC domains. Here we show that DIDO3 and PHF3 form a complex that bridges the Pol II elongation machinery with chromatin and RNA processing factors, and tethers Pol II in a phase-separated microenvironment. Their SPOC domains and C-terminal intrinsically disordered regions are critical for transcription regulation. The dataset contains 3' Sequencing of WT, PHF3 KO, and PHF3 dSPOC mutant HEK293 cell line. Cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions were profiled separately.

The dataset contains RNAseq of HEK293 cells with various perturbations of PHF3 and DIDO1 genes.

The MOM1 complex recruits the RdDM machinery via MORC6 to establish de novo DNA methylation.

Project description:MOM1 is an Arabidopsis factor previously shown to mediate transcriptional silencing independent of major DNA methylation changes. Here we found that MOM1 localizes with sites of RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). Tethering MOM1 with artificial zinc finger to unmethylated FWA promoter led to establishment of DNA methylation and FWA silencing. This process was blocked by mutations in components of the Pol V arm of the RdDM machinery, as well as by mutation of MORC6. We found that at some endogenous RdDM sites, MOM1 is required to maintain DNA methylation and a closed chromatin state. In addition, efficient silencing of newly introduced FWA transgenes was impaired by mutation of MOM1 or mutation of genes encoding the MOM1 interacting PIAL1/2 proteins. In addition to RdDM sites, we identified a group of MOM1 peaks at active chromatin near genes that colocalized with MORC6. These findings demonstrate a multifaceted role of MOM1 in genome regulation.

Transcription factors involved in drug resistance in acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Project description:The efficacy of glucocorticoid receptor modulation is well established in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia(ALL) but the response remains heterogeneous and limited by emergence of drug resistance. Here we use, two clonally-derived cell lines (CEM-C1 and CEM-C7) from a 3-year-old T-cell ALL patient, as a model system to understand the mechanisms of drug resistance in these cell lines; the clone CEM-C1 is resistant to dexamethasone-induced apoptosis and CEM-C7 is sensitive. We performed ATACseq and RNAseq to query for TF binding motifs present in the open regions of the chromatin and expression levels of TFs that could recognize the identified motifs. We are experimentally validating our hypothesis that depletion of the TFs identified, either singly or in combination, in CEM-C7 cells will cause dexamethasone resistance in CEM-C7 cells.

Effector and regulatory T cells roll at high shear stress by inducible tether and sling formation

Project description:The adaptive immune response involves T cell differentiation and migration to sites of inflammation. T cell trafficking is initiated by tethering and rolling on inflamed endothelium. Tethers and slings, discovered in neutrophils, facilitate cell rolling at high shear stress. Here we demonstrate that PSGL-1 binding to P- or E-selectins and the ability to form tethers and slings during rolling are highly inducible in T-helper-1 (Th1), Th17 and regulatory (Treg), but less in Th2 cells. In vivo, endogenous Tregs rolled stably in cremaster venules at physiological shear stress. Quantitative dynamic footprinting nanoscopy of Th1, Th17 and Tregs uncovered the formation of multiple tethers. Importantly, human Th1 cells also showed tethers and slings. RNA-Seq revealed that sling-forming cells induced genetic pathways related to cell motility. We conclude that differentiated CD4 T cells stabilize rolling by inducible tether and sling formation. These phenotypic changes approximate the adhesion phenotype of neutrophils and support CD4 T cell access to sites of inflammation in non-lymphoid tissues.

SMC progressively aligns chromosomal arms in Caulobacter crescentus but is antagonized by convergent transcription

Project description:The Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complex plays an important role in chromosome organization and segregation in most living organisms. In Caulobacter crescentus, SMC is required to align the left and the right arms of the chromosome that run in parallel down the long axis of the cell. However, the mechanism of SMC-mediated alignment of chromosomal arms remains elusive. Here, using genome-wide methods and microscopy of single cells, we show that Caulobacter SMC is recruited to the centromeric parS site and that SMC-mediated arm alignment depends on the chromosome partitioning protein ParB. We provide evidence that SMC likely tethers the parS-proximal regions of the chromosomal arms together, promoting arm alignment. Furthermore, we show that highly-transcribed genes near parS that are oriented against SMC translocation disrupt arm alignment, suggesting that head-on transcription interferes with SMC translocation. Our results demonstrate a tight interdependence of bacterial chromosome organization and global patterns of transcription.

Human chromatin platforms for the study of transcription and RNA regulation

Project description:Here we describe tools to study the step-wise assembly of protein complexes on chromatin in a highly-controlled manner using reconstituted chromatin platforms and quantitative proteomic profiling. We profile the early steps in transcriptional activation and highlight the potential for understanding the multiple ways chromatin can influence transcriptional regulation. We also describe modifications of this approach to study the activity of a long noncoding RNA to act as a dynamic scaffold for proteins to be recruited to chromatin. The reconstituted nature of the chromatin substrate offers a tune-able system, able to be trapped at specific sub-steps, to understand how chromatin interfaces with genome regulation machinery.
