Project description:Background: Identification of locus-locus contacts at the chromatin level provides a valuable foundation for understanding of nuclear architecture and function and a valuable tool for inferring long-range linkage relationships. As one approach to this, chromatin conformation capture-based techniques allow creation of genome spatial organization maps. While such approaches have been available for some time, methodological advances will be of considerable use in minimizing both time and input material required for successful application. Results: Here we report a modified tethered conformation capture protocol that utilizes a series of rapid and efficient molecular manipulations. We applied the method to Caenorhabditis elegans, obtaining chromatin interaction maps that provide a sequence-anchored delineation of salient aspects of Caenorhabditis elegans chromosome structure, demonstrating a high level of consistency in overall chromosome organization between biological samples collected under different conditions. In addition to the application of the method to defining nuclear architecture, we found the resulting chromatin interaction maps to be of sufficient resolution and sensitivity to enable detection of large-scale structural variants such as inversions or translocations. Conclusion: Our streamlined protocol provides an accelerated, robust, and broadly applicable means of generating chromatin spatial organization maps and detecting genome rearrangements without a need for cellular or chromatin fractionation. Application of modified version of TCC protocl using different C. elegans strains (N2 and glp-1) in L1, and adult life stages.

Project description:Heterozygous point mutations or genomic deletions of NR0B1 in Xp21.2 result in congenital adrenal hypoplasia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, whereas the NR0B1 locus duplications in XY individuals lead to gonadal dysgenesis and a male-to-female dosage-sensitive sex reversal. We previously reported an ~ 257 kb deletion mapping 11 kb upstream to NR0B1 in a XY female with primary amenorrhea, small immature uterus, and gonadal dysgenesis pointing to an alteration of its regulatory region. To identify the potential regulatory elements of NR0B1, we have analyzed its 2 Mb flanking regions using chromosome conformation capture-on-chip (4C) in Sertoli cells and lymphoblasts. We confirm the involvement of the previously proposed regulatory region in the control of NR0B1 expression and describe several novel potential chromatin interactions within the NR0B1 locus that may be involved in sex differentiation.

Project description:Chromosome conformation capture (3C)-based assays are used to map chromatin interactions genome-wide. Quantitative analyses of chromatin interaction maps can lead to insights into the spatial organization of chromosomes and the mechanisms by which they fold. A number of protocols such as in situ Hi-C and Micro-C are now widely used and these differ in key experimental parameters including cross-linking chemistry and chromatin fragmentation strategy. To understand how the choice of experimental protocol determines the ability to detect and quantify aspects of chromosome folding we have performed a systematic evaluation of experimental parameters of 3C-based protocols. We find that different protocols capture different 3D genome features with different efficiencies. First, the use of crosslinkers such as DSG in addition to formaldehyde improves signal-to-noise allowing detection of thousands of additional loops and strengthening compartment signal. Second, fragmenting chromatin to the level of nucleosomes using MNase allows detection of more loops. On the other hand, protocols that generate larger multi-kb fragments produce stronger compartmentalization signals. We confirmed our results in multiple cell states such as pluripotent and differentiated cells as well as cell cycle stages; Mitosis and G1. Based on these insights we developed Hi-C 3.0, a single protocol that can be used to both efficiently detect chromatin loops and to quantify compartmentalization. Finally, this study produced ultra-deeply sequenced reference interaction maps using in situ Hi-C, Micro-C and Hi-C 3.0 for commonly cell lines in the 4D Nucleome Project.
