Enhancer formation during cell reprogramming is edited by the chromatin remodeling factor CHD4 [ChIP-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Transcription factors induce dynamic chromatin reorganization during cell fate transition. Pioneer transcription factors are defined as their capability to engage chromatin by binding to nucleosomal DNA in closed chromatin and inducing chromatin opening. However, it has been also shown that these activities are context dependent. Only a subset of pioneer factors’ binding sites become open and the rest of binding sites remain closed. The molecular mechanisms of this context dependent action are still largely unknown. Here, we explore dynamic chromatin rearrangement during GATA3 dependent mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET) in breast cancer cells. We found site-specific kinetic differences in chromatin binding, nucleosome remodeling and chromatin opening by the pioneer factor GATA3. We also identified that a chromatin remodeling enzyme, CHD4, negatively regulates the GATA3-mediated chromatin opening. The silencing of CHD4 induces abnormal chromatin opening leading to unnecessary gene expression for MET. Our study suggests the active regulation of chromatin potential by the chromatin remodeling enzyme for successful cellular reprogramming.

GATA3-mediated chromatin reprogramming in breast cancer cells

Project description:Pioneer transcription factors bind to silent chromatin, and initiate cell fate conversion. One potential pioneer factor, GATA3, is a critical component for multiple cellular programs. GATA3 is of particular interest as it regulates gene expression in breast cancers, and low expression correlates with poor prognosis. Here we demonstrate the pioneering activity of GATA3 utilizing a cellular reprogramming system (the mesenchymal-epithelial transition) in breast cancer cells. During the epithelial transition, GATA3 catalyzes chromatin reprogramming by inducing chromatin opening, active enhancer modifications, and nucleosome remodelling. We determined that the transactivation domain is required for this chromatin reprogramming. Importantly, a mutant lacking the transactivation domain possessed the chromatin binding ability but failed to create open chromatin, suggesting binding alone is not sufficient to induce open chromatin. These data illustrate a fundamental mechanism of GATA3-mediated gene regulation, and provide evidence for a pre-engagement state of closed chromatin bound by a pioneer factor.

Pioneer and nonpioneer factor cooperation drives lineage specific chromatin opening [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Pioneer transcription factors are coined as having the unique property of “opening closed chromatin sites” for implementation of cell fates. We previously showed that the pioneer Pax7 specifies melanotrope cells through deployment of an enhancer repertoire: this allows binding of Tpit, a nonpioneer factor that determines the related lineages of melanotropes and corticotropes. Here, we investigated the relation between these two factors in the pioneer mechanism. Cell-specific gene expression and chromatin landscapes were defined by scRNAseq and chromatin accessibility profiling. We found that in vivo deployment of the melanotrope enhancer repertoire and chromatin opening requires both Pax7 and Tpit. In cells, binding of heterochromatin targets by Pax7 is independent of Tpit but Pax7-dependent chromatin opening requires Tpit. The present work shows that pioneer core properties are limited to the ability to recognize heterochromatin targets and facilitate nonpioneer binding. Chromatin opening per se may be provided through cooperation with nonpioneer factors.

Protein-intrinsic properties and context-dependent effects regulate pioneer-factor binding and function [RNA-Seq]

Project description:While chromatin presents a barrier to the binding of many transcription factors, pioneer factors access nucleosomal targets and promote chromatin opening. Despite binding to target motifs in closed chromatin, many pioneer factors display cell-type specific binding and activity. The mechanisms governing pioneer-factor occupancy and the relationship between chromatin occupancy and opening remain unclear. We studied three Drosophila transcription factors with distinct DNA-binding domains and biological functions: Zelda, Grainy head, and Twist. We demonstrated that the level of chromatin occupancy is a key determinant of activity. Multiple factors regulate occupancy, including motif content, local chromatin, and protein concentration. Regions outside the DNA-binding domain are required for binding and chromatin opening. Our results show that pioneering activity is not a binary feature intrinsic to a protein but occurs on a spectrum and is regulated by a variety of protein-intrinsic and cell-type-specific features.
