ChIP-exo data for Cbp1 and CreN7 in Saccharolobus solfataricus P2

ABSTRACT: Chromatin proteins competes with the transcription machinery for access to genomic DNA and suppress cryptic promoters. CRISPR arrays form the physical memory of CRISPR adaptive immune systems. The incorporation of virus-derived AT-rich DNA into CRISPR arrays renders them prone to harbouring cryptic promoters. Sulfolobales feature extremely long CRISPR arrays spanning several kilobases as well as a CRISPR-specific chromatin protein termed Cbp1. Altered Cbp1 expression affects transcription from CRISPR arrays in multiple ways, but the mechanistic basis remains to be understood. Here, we show that Cbp1 recruits the general chromatin protein Cren7 to form a heteromeric chromatin complex at CRISPR arrays. Cbp1-CreN7 chromatinisation plays a dual role in the transcription of CRISPR array. It suppresses spurious transcription from cryptic CRISPR array-internal promoters via steric occlusion of the transcription machinery while enhancing transcription from promoters in the CRISPR leaders. Our results show that Cbp1-CreN7 chromatinization drives the coordinated transcription of long CRISPR arrays. Additional binding sites of Cbp1 associated with transposases and the leaders of alternative CRISPR arrays hint on a wider regulatory function of Cbp1 linking defense systems and mobile genetic elements.

Cbp1-Cren7 chromatinization of CRISPR arrays favours transcription from CRISPR leaders over cryptic promoters.

Project description:CRISPR arrays form the physical memory of CRISPR adaptive immune systems by incorporating foreign DNA as spacers that are often AT-rich and derived from viruses. As promoter elements such as the TATA-box are AT-rich, CRISPR arrays are prone to harbouring cryptic promoters. Sulfolobales harbor extremely long CRISPR arrays spanning several kilobases, a feature that is accompanied by the CRISPR-specific transcription factor Cbp1. Aberrant Cbp1 expression modulates CRISPR array transcription, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this regulation are unknown. Here, we characterise the genome-wide Cbp1 binding at nucleotide resolution and characterise the binding motifs on distinct CRISPR arrays, as well as on unexpected non-canonical binding sites associated with transposasons. Cbp1 recruits Cren7 forming together ‘chimeric’ chromatin-like structures at CRISPR arrays. We dissect Cbp1 function in vitro and in vivo and show that the third HTH domain is responsible for Cren7 recruitment, and that Cbp1-Cren7 chromatinization plays a dual role in the transcription of CRISPR arrays. It suppresses spurious transcription from cryptic promoters within CRISPR arrays but enhances CRISPR RNA transcription directed from their cognate promoters in their leader region. Our results show that Cbp1-Cren7 chromatinization drives the productive expression of long CRISPR arrays.

Identification of non-coding transcripts regulated by the transcription factor Rap1 by RNA-Seq analysis

Project description:Many active eukaryotic gene promoters exhibit divergent noncoding transcription, but the mechanisms restricting expression of these transcripts are not well understood. Here we demonstrate how a sequence-specific transcription factor represses divergent noncoding transcription at highly expressed genes in yeast. We find that depletion of the transcription factor Rap1 induces noncoding transcription in a large fraction of Rap1 regulated gene promoters. Specifically, Rap1 prevents transcription initiation at cryptic promoters near its binding sites, which is uncoupled from transcription regulation in the protein-coding direction. We further provide evidence that Rap1 acts independently of chromatin-based mechanisms to repress cryptic or divergent transcription. Finally, we show that divergent transcription in the absence of Rap1 is elicited by the RSC chromatin remodeller. We propose that a sequence-specific transcription factor limits access of basal transcription machinery to regulatory elements and adjacent sequences that act as divergent cryptic promoters, thereby providing directionality towards productive transcription.

Nanoscale Chromatin Profiling of Gastric Adenocarcinoma

Project description:To identify chromatin alterations in primary gastric adenocarcionomas, we performed nano-scale chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (Nano-CHiPseq) of histone modifications in 5 gastric cancers and matched normal tissues, We identified hundreds of somatically-altered promoters (marked by H3K4me3) and enhancers (H3K4me1). The majority of cancer-associated promoters localized to genomic sites lacking previously-annotated transcription start sites (“cryptic promoters”), driving high expression of nearby genes implicated in gastrointestinal cancers, embryonic development, and tissue specification. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of performing chromatin profiling on solid tumors where tissue is limiting, to identify in non-coding regions regulatory elements, transcriptional patterns and genetic variants associated with cancer. We propose a pervasive role for cryptic promoters in the reactivation of early developmental programs in gastric cancer, and the potential utility of cryptic promoters as biomarkers of malignancy. Five gastric cancer tumor normal pairs are profiling in multiple number of chromatin marks

Age-associated cryptic transcription in mammalian stem cells is linked to permissive chromatin at cryptic promoters [WGBS]

Project description:Suppressing spurious cryptic transcription by a repressive intragenic chromatin state featuring trimethylated lysine 36 on histone H3 (H3K36me3) and DNA methylation is critical for maintaining self-renewal capacity in mouse embryonic stem cells. In yeast and nematodes, such cryptic transcription is elevated with age, and reducing the levels of age-associated cryptic transcription extends yeast lifespan. Whether cryptic transcription is also increased during mammalian aging is unknown. We show for the first time an age-associated elevation in cryptic transcription in several stem cell populations, including murine hematopoietic stem cells (mHSCs) and neuronal stem cells (NSCs) and human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Using DECAP-seq, we mapped and quantified age-associated cryptic transcription in hMSCs aged in vitro. Regions with significant age-associated cryptic transcription have a unique chromatin signature: decreased H3K36me3 and increased H3K4me1, H3K4me3, and H3K27ac with age. Furthermore, genomic regions undergoing such age-dependent chromatin changes resemble known promoter sequences and are bound by the promoter-associated protein TBP even in young cells. Hence, the more permissive chromatin state at intragenic cryptic promoters likely underlies the increase of cryptic transcription in aged mammalian stem cells.
