Project description:STAT5 and IL-7 signaling are thought to control B-lymphopoiesis by regulating key transcription factor genes and activating VH gene segments at the Igh locus. Using conditional mutagenesis, we demonstrate that transgenic Bcl2 expression rescued the development of Stat5-deleted pro-B cells by compensating for the loss of Mcl-1. Ebf1 and Pax5 expression as well as VH recombination were normal in Bcl2-rescued pro-B cells lacking STAT5 or IL-7Ra. In agreement with this finding, STAT5-expressing pro-B cells contained little or no active chromatin at most VH genes. In contrast, Igk rearrangements were increased in STAT5- or IL-7Ra-deficient pro-B cells, consistent with direct binding of STAT5 to the intronic iEk enhancer in wild-type pro-B cells. Hence, STAT5 and IL-7 signaling control cell survival and suppress premature Igk recombination in early B-lymphopoiesis. comparison of wt vs Rag2-/- pro-B cells

Project description:The immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) locus undergoes large-scale contraction in pro-B cells, which facilitates VH-DJH recombination by juxtaposing distal VH genes next to the DJH- rearranged gene segment in the proximal Igh domain. By high-resolution mapping of long-range interactions, we now demonstrate that an array of local interaction domains establishes the three- dimensional structure of the extended Igh locus in lymphoid progenitors and thymocytes. In pro- B cells, these local domains engage in long-range interactions across the entire Igh locus, which depend on the transcription factors Pax5, YY1 and CTCF. The large VH gene cluster thereby undergoes flexible long-range interactions with the more rigidly structured 3M-bM-^@M-^Y proximal domain, which ensures that all VH genes can participate with similar probability in VH-DJH recombination to generate a diverse antibody repertoire. Notably, these long-range interactions appear to be an intrinsic feature of the VH gene cluster, as they are still generated upon mutation of the EM-NM-< enhancer, IGCR1 insulator or 3M-bM-^@M-^Y regulatory region present in the 3M-bM-^@M-^Y proximal Igh domain. 4C sequencing from mutliple celltypes with multiple viewpoints; uneven number of replicates ChIP-Seq

Project description:There has been no study to date that has examined genomic DNA (gDNA) and RNA Igkappa repertoires directly from the same set of cells. In this study we performed deep sequencing on Igkappa repertoire library preparations from both gDNA and RNA from the same sorted cells. This was done for both pre-B cells, where most Igkappa rearrangement takes places as well as pro-B cells where some B cells undergo early Igkappa rearrangement. In addition, we perfored gDNA repertoire analysis on iEkappa-/- pre-B cells. We find that some Vk genes display skewed DNA or RNA representiation relative to the other. We also find that pro-B cell Igkappa rearrangement is skewed to Jkappa-distal Vkappa genes. Lastly, we find that iEkappa-/- pre-B cells are not capable of rearranging to the most proximal Vkappa family genes.

Project description:VH-DJH recombination of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) locus is temporally and spatially controlled during early B-cell development, and yet no regulatory elements other than the VH gene promoters have been identified throughout the entire 2.5-Mb VH gene cluster. Here we discovered novel regulatory sequences that are interspersed in the distal VH gene region. These conserved repeat elements were characterized by the presence of Pax5-dependent active chromatin, the binding of Pax5, E2A, CTCF and Rad21 as well as by Pax5-dependent antisense transcription in pro-B cells. The Pax5-activated intergenic repeat (PAIR) elements were no longer bound by Pax5 in pre-B and B cells consistent with the loss of antisense transcription, whereas E2A and CTCF interacted with PAIR elements throughout early B-cell development. The pro-B-cell-specific and Pax5-dependent activity of the PAIR elements suggests that they are involved in the regulation of distal VH-DJH recombination at the Igh locus. Analysis of chromatin and TF binding in rag2-/- and wt pro-B, DP T and Mature B cells. Chip-Seq of CTCF and Rad21. The provided data is in mm8 coordinates.

Project description:While extended loop extrusion across the entire Igh locus controls VH-DJH recombination, local regulatory sequences, such as the PAIR elements, may also activate VH gene recombination in pro-B-cells. Here we show that PAIR-associated VH8 genes contain a conserved putative regulatory element (V8E) in their downstream sequences. To investigate the function of PAIR4 and its V8.7E, we deleted all 14 PAIRs in the Igh 5’-region, which reduced distal VH gene recombination over a 100-kb distance on either side of the 890-kb deletion. Reconstitution by insertion of PAIR4-V8.7E strongly activated distal VH gene recombination. PAIR4 alone resulted in lower induction of recombination, indicating that PAIR4 and V8.7E function as one regulatory unit. The pro-B-cell-specific activity of PAIR4 depends on CTCF, as mutation of its CTCF-binding site led to sustained PAIR4 activity in pre-B and immature B-cells and in PAIR4 activation in T-cells. Notably, insertion of V8.8E was sufficient to activate VH gene recombination. Hence, enhancers of the PAIR4-V8.7E module and V8.8E element activate distal VH gene recombination and thus contribute to the diversification of the BCR repertoire in addition to loop extrusion.

Project description:For high-throughput sequencing and quantification of immunoglobulin repertoires, most methodologies utilise RNA. However, output varies enormously between recombined genes due to different promoter strengths and differential activation of lymphocyte subsets, precluding quantitation of recombinants on a per cell basis. To date, DNA-based approaches have used V gene primer cocktails, with substantial inherent biases. Here we describe VDJ-seq, which accurately quantitates immunoglobulin diversity at the DNA level in an unbiased manner. This is accomplished with a single primer extension step using biotinylated J gene primers. By addition of unique molecular identifiers (UMI) before primer extension, we reliably remove duplicate sequences and correct for sequencing and PCR errors. Furthermore, VDJ-seq captures productive and non-productive VDJ and DJ recombination events on a per cell basis. Library preparation takes 3 days, with 2 days of sequencing, and 1 day of data processing and analysis.

Project description:Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is the catalytic component of NCoR/SMRT corepressor complexes that mediate the actions of transcription factors implicated in the regulation of B cell development and function. We crossed Hdac3 conditional knockout mice with Mb1-Cre knockin animals to delete Hdac3 in early progenitor B cells. The spleens of Hdac3F/-Mb1-Cre+/- mice were virtually devoid of mature B cells, and B220+CD43+ B cell progenitors accumulated within the bone marrow. Quantitative deep sequencing of the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus from B220+CD43+ populations identified a defect in VHDJH recombination with a severe reduction in productive rearrangements, which directly corresponded to the loss of pre-B cells from Hdac3D/- bone marrow. For Hdac3D/- B cells that did show productive VDJ rearrangement, there was significant skewing toward the incorporation of proximal VH gene segments and a corresponding reduction in distal VH gene segment usage. While transcriptional effects within these loci were modest, Hdac3D/- progenitor cells displayed global changes in chromatin structure that likely hindered effective distal V-DJ recombination. Re-introduction of wild type Hdac3 restored normal B cell development, whereas an Hdac3 point mutant lacking deacetylase activity failed to complement this defect. Thus, the deacetylase activity of Hdac3 is required for the generation of mature B cells.
