Identification and Characterization of Enhancers Controlling the Inflammatory Gene Expression Program in Macrophages

ABSTRACT: Enhancers determine tissue-specific gene expression programs. Enhancers are marked by high histone H3 lysine 4 mono-methylation (H3K4me1) and by the acetyl-transferase p300, which has allowed genome-wide enhancer identification. However, the regulatory principles by which subsets of enhancers become active in specific developmental and/or environmental contexts are unknown. We exploited inducible p300 binding to chromatin to identify, and then mechanistically dissect, enhancers controlling endotoxin-stimulated gene expression in macrophages. In these enhancers, binding sites for the lineage-restricted and constitutive Ets protein PU.1 coexisted with those for ubiquitous stress-inducible transcription factors such as NF-kappaB, IRF, and AP-1. PU.1 was required for maintaining H3K4me1 at macrophage-specific enhancers. Reciprocally, ectopic expression of PU.1 reactivated these enhancers in fibroblasts. Thus, the combinatorial assembly of tissue- and signal-specific transcription factors determines the activity of a distinct group of enhancers. We suggest that this may represent a general paradigm in tissue-restricted and stimulus-responsive gene regulation.

We suggest that this may represent a general paradigm in tissue-restricted and stimulus-responsive gene regulation. Chromatin immuno-precipitations of p300, PU.1 and mono-methylated H3 lysine 4 followed by multiparallel sequencing were performed in bone marrow-derived macrophages. Experiments for p300 and PU.1 were also carried out in cells treated for 2hrs with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In case of p300, reads obtained from two different biological replicates were merged.

Identification of H3 Lysine 4 Monomethylation Associated Proteins at Mammalian Enhancers

Project description:Enhancers act to regulate cell type specific gene expression by facilitating the transcription of target genes. In mammalian cells active or primed enhancers are commonly marked by monomethylation of Histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me1) in a cell-type specific manner. Whether and how this histone modification regulates enhancer-dependent transcription programs in mammals has been unclear. In the present study, we conducted SILAC Mass-spec experiments with mono-nucleosomes and identified multiple H3K4me1 associated proteins, including proteins involved in chromatin remodeling. We demonstrate that H3K4me1 augments the association of the chromatin remodeling complex BAF to enhancers in vivo. Furthermore we show that in vitro, H3K4me1 nucleosomes are more efficiently remodeled by the BAF complex. Crystal structures of a BAF component BAF45c further reveal that monomethylation, but not trimethylation, is accommodated in this protein’s H3K4 binding site. Our results suggest that H3K4me1 plays an active role at enhancers by facilitating the binding of the BAF complex and possibly other chromatin regulators.

Genome-wide analysis of chromatin landscape in murine bone marrow derived eosinophils

Project description:We applied a global approach using broad-range, next-generation sequecing to identify a repertoire of eosinophil-specific enhancers. H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac and PU.1 ChIPseq data was paired with ATAC and gene expression data from bmEos. Transcription factor motif analysis revealed enrichment for PU.1 in eosinophil enhancers, and ChIP-seq confirmed PU.1 binding in enhancer of genes highly expressed in eosinophils. Comparison of identified PU.1-bound enhancers with 3 publically available myeloid datasets (neutrophils, bone marrow derived macrophages and immature granulocytes) revealed 25% of PU.1-bound enhancers were unique to eosinophils - an eosinophil-specific PU.1 regulome. GO analysis of eosinophil-specific PU.1-bound enhancers revealed enrichmend for genes involved in migration, proliferation, degranulation and survival. Collectively, our data identify eosinophil-specific enhancers regulating key eosinophil genes through epigenetic mechanisms and TF binding. These findings are supportive of a dynamic, epigenetic eosinophil regulome underlying eosinophil function and diversity.

Foxd3 binding at enhancers controls developmental timing of gene expression by regulation of histone acetylation [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Transcription factor/enhancer interactions determine cell specific gene expression. Here, we followed enhancers during differentiations of embryonic stem (ESCs) to epiblast like cells (EpiLCs). There were highly dynamic changes in histone lysine 27 acetylation at enhancer sites throughout the genome. These sites were enriched for a Foxd3 binding motif, a forkhead transcription factor essential in early embryonic development. Surprisingly, Foxd3 occupied largely mutually exclusive sites in the ESCs versus EpiLCs. Foxd3 bound to nucleosome occupied regions, simultaneously evicting the histones while inhibiting full gene expression through the recruitment of histone deacetylases. Knockout of Foxd3 resulted in hyperacetylation and transcriptional upregulation of neighboring genes, many of which were further upregulated at later stages of differentiation. These data show that Foxd3 primes enhancer sites during pregastrulation by removing nucleosomes, yet suppresses neighboring histone hyperacetylation. Such a mechanism may be common to many transcription factors that prepare enhancers for later gene activation during development. ChIP-seq of H3K4me1, H3K27ac, H3K27me3, p300, H3K4me3, RNA Pol2 and Oct4 in four pluripotent states: embryonic stem cells (ESCs) day 1 ESC differentiation, Epi-like stem cells (EpiLCs), and epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs); ChIP-seq of 3XFlag tagged Foxd3 in ESCs and EpiLCs; ChIP-seq of H3K4me1, H3K27ac, H3K27me3, p300 and H3K4me3 in Foxd3 conditional knockout cells (tamoxifen-inducible) -/+ 36h Tamoxifen treatemnt.

Identification and Characterization of Hoxa9 Binding Sites in Hematopoietic Cells

Project description:The clustered homeobox proteins play crucial roles in development, hematopoiesis and leukemia yet the targets they regulate and their mechanisms of action are poorly understood. Here, we identified the binding sites for Hoxa9 and the Hox cofactor Meis1 on a genome-wide level and profiled their associated epigenetic modifications and transcriptional targets. Hoxa9 and the Hox cofactor Meis1 co-bind at hundreds of highly evolutionarily-conserved sites, most of which are distant from transcription start sites. These sites show high levels of histone H3K4 monomethylation and CBP/P300 binding characteristic of enhancers. Furthermore, a subset of these sites shows enhancer activity in transient transfection assays. Many Hoxa9 and Meis1 binding sites are also bound by PU.1 and other lineage-restricted transcription factors previously implicated in establishment of myeloid enhancers. Conditional Hoxa9 activation is associated with CBP/P300 recruitment, histone acetylation and transcriptional activation of a network of proto-oncogenes including Erg, Flt3, Lmo2, Myb and Sox4. Collectively this work suggests that Hoxa9 regulates transcription by interacting with enhancers of genes important for hematopoiesis and leukemia. To identify the genome-wide binding sites for Hoxa9 and the Hox cofactor Meis1

A UTX–MLL4–p300 Transcriptional Regulatory Network Coordinately Shapes Active Enhancer Landscapes for Eliciting Transcription (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Enhancer activation is a critical step for gene activation. Here we report a novel epigenetic crosstalk at enhancers between the UTX (H3K27 demethylase)-MLL4 (H3K4 methyltransferase) complex and the histone acetyltransferase p300. We demonstrate that UTX, in a demethylase activity-independent manner, facilitates conversion of naïve (unmarked) enhancers in embryonic stem cells to an active (H3K4me1+/H3K27ac+) state by recruiting and coupling the enzymatic functions of MLL4 and p300. Loss of UTX leads to attenuated enhancer activity, characterized by reduced levels of H3K4me1 and H3K27ac as well as impaired transcription. The UTX-MLL4 complex enhances p300-dependent H3K27 acetylation through UTX-dependent stimulation of p300 recruitment while MLL4-mediated H3K4 monomethylation, reciprocally, requires p300 function. Importantly, MLL4-generated H3K4me1 further enhances p300-dependent transcription. This work reveals a previously unrecognized cooperativity among enhancer-associated chromatin modulators, including a unique function for UTX, in establishing an “active enhancer landscape” and defines a mechanism for the joint deposition of H3K4me1 and H3K27ac.
