Compartment-dependent chromatin interaction dynamics revealed by liquid chromatin Hi-C

ABSTRACT: Chromosomes are folded so that active and inactive chromatin domains are spatially segregated to form a variety of sub-nuclear neighborhoods. Compartmentalization is thought to occur through polymer phase/microphase separation mediated by interactions between loci of similar type. The nature and dynamics of these interactions are not known. We developed liquid chromatin Hi-C to map the stability of associations between loci genome-wide. Before fixation and Hi-C, chromosomes are fragmented removing the strong polymeric constraint to enable detection of intrinsic locus-locus interaction stabilities. We find that chromosome compartmentalization is dependent on the length of chromatin fragments. Compartmentalization is stable when fragments are over 10-25 kb. Fragmenting chromatin into pieces smaller than 6 kb leads to gradual loss of spatial genome organization. In addition to fragmentation level dissolution kinetics of chromatin interactions vary for different chromatin domains. Lamin associated domains are most stable, and speckle-associated loci are more dynamic. The polycomb-enriched B1 sub-compartment also displays highly unstable interactions. Cohesin-mediated loops dissolve after fragmentation, possibly because cohesin rings slide off nearby DNA ends. Liquid chromatin Hi-C provides a genome-wide view of chromosome interaction dynamics, revealing a range of conformational stabilities at different sub-nuclear structures.

Architectural protein subclasses shape 3-D organization of genomes during lineage commitment

Project description:Understanding the topological configurations of chromatin can reveal valuable insights into how the genome and epigenome act in concert to control cell fate during development. Here we generate high-resolution architecture maps across seven genomic loci in embryonic stem cells and neural progenitor cells. We observe a hierarchy of 3-D interactions that undergo marked reorganization at the sub-Mb scale during differentiation. Distinct combinations of CTCF, Mediator, and cohesin show widespread enrichment in architecture at different length scales. CTCF/cohesin anchor long-range constitutive interactions that might form the topological basis for invariant sub-domains. Conversely, Mediator/cohesin together with pioneer factors bridge short-range enhancer-promoter interactions within and between larger sub-domains. Knockdown of Smc1 or Med12 in ES cells results in disruption of spatial architecture and down-regulation of genes found in cohesin-mediated interactions. We conclude that cell type-specific chromatin organization occurs at the sub-Mb scale and that architectural proteins shape the genome in hierarchical length scales. Analysis of higher-order chromatin chromatin architecture in mouse ES cells and ES-derived NPCs. Analysis of CTCF and Smc1 occupied sites in ES-derived NPCs.

SCC1 interaction proteomics in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:FACT mediates cohesin function on chromatin Cohesin is a key regulator of genome architecture with roles in sister chromatid cohesion and the organisation of higher-order structures during interphase and mitosis. The recruitment and mobility of cohesin complexes on DNA are restricted by nucleosomes. Here we show that cohesin role in chromosome organization requires the histone chaperone FACT. Depletion of FACT in metaphase cells affects cohesin stability on chromatin reducing its accumulation at pericentric regions and binding on chromosome arms. Using Hi-C, we show that cohesin-dependent TAD (Topological Associated Domains)-like structures in G1 and metaphase chromosomes are disrupted in the absence of FACT. Surprisingly, sister chromatid cohesion is intact in FACT-depleted cells, although chromosome segregation failure is observed. Our results uncover a role for FACT in genome organisation by facilitating cohesin dependent compartmentalization of chromosomes into loop domains.

Cohesin is a key determinant of interphase chromosome domain architecture (HiC)

Project description:To ensure proper gene regulation within constrained nuclear space, chromosomes facilitate access to transcribed regions, while compactly packaging all other information. Recent studies revealed that chromosomes are organized into megabase-scale domains that demarcate active and inactive genetic elements, suggesting that compartmentalization is important for genome function. Here we show that very specific long-range interactions are anchored by cohesin/CTCF sites, but not cohesin-only or CTCF-only sites, to form a hierarchy of chromosomal loops. These loops demarcate topological domains and form intricate internal structures within them. Post-mitotic nuclei deficient for functional cohesin exhibit global architectural changes associated with loss of cohesin/CTCF contacts and relaxation of topological domains. Transcriptional analysis shows that this cohesin-dependent perturbation of domain organization leads to widespread gene deregulation of both cohesin-bound and non-bound genes. Our data thereby support a role for cohesin in the global organization of domain structure and suggest that domains function to stabilize the transcriptional programs within them. Hi-C, ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq experiments were conducted in mouse neural stem cells and mouse astrocytes

Distinct 3D Genome Organization in the Two Nuclei of Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:Somatic macronucleus (MAC) and germline micronucleus (MIC) of Tetrahymena thermophila are different in chromosome numbers, sizes, functions and cohesin complex locations. Loss of cohesin complex resulted in genome-wide disappearance of topologically associating domains (TADs) and chromatin loops in mammalian cells. However, the higher-level chromatin organization in Tetrahymena thermophila which contains both cohesin free MAC and cohesin located MIC are largely unknown. Here, using the Hi-C and HiChIP methods, we reveal that, these two nuclei possess distinct three-dimensional genome structures. In the MAC, each chromosome occupies its own territory and there are no chromatin compartmentalization or chromatin domains. The chromatin loops in MAC are mainly related to chromatin structures rather than transcriptional regulation. The MIC also without chromatin compartmentalization, but with chromatin domains and the domain boundaries are consistent with chromatin breakage sites (CBSs) which indicates that each MIC chromatin domain developed to one MAC chromosome during conjugation. Besides, we found the MIC exhibits unique intra-arm and inter-chromosome interactions at the crescent stage of conjugation, when the MIC undergoes meiotic recombination.

Cohesin and CTCF Differentially Affect the Chromatin Architecture and Gene Expression in Human Cells

Project description:Recent studies of genome-wide chromatin interactions have revealed that the human genome is partitioned into many self-associating topological domains. The boundary sequences are enriched for binding sites of CTCF and the cohesin complex, implicating these two factors in the establishment or maintenance of topological domains. To determine the role of cohesin and CTCF in higher order chromatin architecture in human cells, we proteolytically cleaved the cohesin complex from interphase chromatin and examined changes in chromosomal organization as well as transcriptome. We observed a general loss of local chromosomal interactions upon disruption of cohesin complex, but the topological domains remain intact. However, we found that depletion of CTCF by RNA interference in these cells not only reduced intra-domain interactions but also increased inter-domain interactions. Further more, distinct groups of genes become mis-regulated upon depletion of cohesin and CTCF. Taken together, these observations suggest that CTCF and cohesin contribute in different ways to chromatin organization and gene regulation. Hi-C and mRNA-seq experiments in Cohesin and CTCF depleted HEK293 cells

Cause and consequence of tethering a sub-TAD to different nuclear compartments

Project description:Detailed genomic contact maps have revealed that chromosomes are composed of developmentally stable topologically associated domains (TADs) and more flexible sub-TADs. These domains reside in active and inactive nuclear compartments, but cause and consequence of compartmentalization are largely unknown. Here, we combined lacO/lacR binding platforms with allele-specific 4C technologies to track their precise position in the three-dimensional genome upon recruitment of NANOG, SUV39H1 or EZH2. We observed locked genomic loci resistant to spatial repositioning and unlocked loci that could be repositioned to different nuclear sub-compartments with distinct chromatin signatures. Focal protein recruitment caused the entire sub- TAD, but not surrounding regions, to engage in new genomic contacts. Compartment switching was uncoupled from gene expression changes and enzymatically modifying histones per se was insufficient for repositioning. Collectively this suggests that transassociated factors determine three-dimensional compartmentalization independent of their cis-effect on local chromatin composition and activity. 4C-seq was performed on a range of viewpoints in 129/Sv;C57BL/6 embryonic stem cells carying a lacO array in chromosome 8 and 11.

Rad21 is the core subunit of cohesin complex in directing genome organization

Project description:In eukaryotes, the nuclear chromatin in the interphase is a hierarchical organization. Previous studies have suggested that cohesin-DNA interactions play important architectural functions for chromatin structure in the interphase. In this study, we applied super-resolution imaging, single-molecule imaging to measure the distribution of cohesin subunits. Hi-C and RNA-seq were used to reveal the 3D genome structures alterations and the relationship with breast cancer upon Rad21 up-regulation. Hi-C experiment showed that the contact frequency of short distance was increased while that of long distance was decreased in the absence of Rad21 up-regulation. Chromatin interactions between A and B compartments increased and compartmentalization strength was reduced significantly upon Rad21 up-regulation. Correspondingly, accumulated contacts were shown at TAD corners and inter-TAD interactions increased. These observations support cohesin loop extrusion model and lead us to propose the unique role of Rad21-loader interaction in cohesin loading and further cohesin extrusion. Moreover, we combined transcriptome changes and chromatin structure alterations upon Rad21 up-regulation and revealed the correlation between Rad21 and breast cancer by affecting chromatin architecture.
