ChipSeq of Twist1 and YY1 in PLC-PRF-5 cells


ABSTRACT: Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important mechanism of metastasis and malignant progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the transcriptional regulation mechanism of EMT remains poorly understood. Some transcriptional co-activators can form phase-separated condensates at super-enhancers that compartmentalize and concentrate the transcription apparatus to drive robust gene expression. Here, we demonstrate that Twist1 and YY1, interact with p300 and form phase-separated local high-concentration interaction hubs at super-enhancers of miRNA-9 and activate its expression to induce EMT and promote the malignant evolution of HCC. Phase separation disrupted by metformin perturbs Twist–YY1 condensates, thereby inhibiting EMT. To explore how the Twist1 complex regulates miR-9 expression by binding SE region, we performed Twist1 ChIP-seq combined with H3K4me3, H3K4me1, H3K27ac, DNAse, p300, and YY1 ChIP-seq data to detect the SEs of miR-9. After metformin treatment, the peak of Twist1/YY1 on miR-9 SE decreased. Metformin specifically affects the binding of Twist1/YY1 to the miR-9 SE region. 1,6-hexanediol, as an aliphatic alcohol, can weaken hydrophobic interactions and inhibit liquid–liquid phase separation by disrupting hydrophobic interactions. In order to prove Twist1/YY1 interaction at these sites requires phase separation, we detect the accessibility of miR-9 SE regions in 1,6-hexanediol-treated cells. The result showed a general decrease in the accessibility of miR-9 super-enhancer regions in 1,6-hexanediol-treated cells and Twist1 / YY1 combines the SE region of miR-9 in the form of phase separation.
