Non-disruptive 3D Profiling of Combinations of Epigenetic Marks in Single Cells

ABSTRACT: Recent advancements in single-cell sequencing and spatial omics technologies have enhanced our understanding of diverse cellular identities, compositions, and functions. However, the single-cell three-dimensional (3D) organization of the epigenome is still not well understood, due to an absence of spatial single-cell methods that allow high-resolution, locus-specific detection of combinations of epigenetic marks while maintaining the 3D organization of the genome. Here, we develop Epigenetic Proximity Hybridization Reaction (Epi-PHR), an image-based single-cell spatial epigenetic profiling technique. Epi-PHR enables high-sensitivity and high-resolution in situ detection of combinations of epigenetic marks at hundreds of single gene targets within the same individual cells, while retaining the 3D organization of the genome, a clear advantage over previous technologies. Phased Epi-PHR combined with chromatin tracing simultaneously detects allele-specific epigenetic states and chromatin conformations of an imprinting gene cluster in single cells, revealing associations between specific epigenetic mark enrichment and chromatin folding features for the distinct alleles from different parental origins. We expect Epi-PHR to be broadly applicable in research requiring single-cell spatial epigenetic information, and to help understand the combinatorial code of epigenetic marks and its relationship with chromatin folding in diverse biological and medical contexts.

The Dynamic Architecture of Hox Gene Clusters

Project description:The spatial and temporal control of Hox gene transcription is essential for patterning the vertebrate body axis. Although this process involves changes in histone posttranslational modifications, the existence of particular three-dimensional (3D) architectures remained to be assessed in vivo. Using high-resolution chromatin conformation capture methodology, we examined the spatial configuration of Hox clusters in embryonic mouse tissues where different Hox genes are active. When the cluster is transcriptionally inactive, Hox genes associate into a single 3D structure delimited from flanking regions. Once transcription starts, Hox clusters switch to a bimodal 3D organization where newly activated genes progressively cluster into a transcriptionally active compartment. This transition in spatial configurations coincides with the dynamics of chromatin marks, which label the progression of the gene clusters from a negative to a positive transcription status. This spatial compartmentalization may be key to process the collinear activation of these compact gene clusters. Examination of gene expression in 3 cell types. Examination of 2 different histone modifications in 2 cell types.

4C-seq: Temporal dynamics and developmental memory of 3D chromatin architecture at Hox gene loci

Project description:Hox genes are essential regulators of embryonic development. They are activated in a temporal sequence following their topological order within their genomic clusters. Subsequently, states of activity are fine-tuned and maintained to translate into domains of progressively overlapping gene products. While the mechanisms underlying such temporal and spatial progressions begin to be understood, many of their aspects remain unclear. We have systematically analyzed the 3D chromatin organization of Hox clusters in vivo, during their activation using high-resolution circular chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq). Initially, Hox clusters are organized as single 3D chromatin compartments decorated with bivalent chromatin marks. Their progressive transcriptional activation is associated with a dynamic bi-modal 3D organization, whereby the genes switch one after the other, from an inactive to an active 3D compartment. These local 3D dynamics occur within a larger constitutive framework of interactions within the surrounding Topological Associated Domains, which confirms previous results that regulation of this process in primarily cluster intrinsic. The local step-wise progression in time can be stopped and memorized at various body levels and hence it may accounts for the various chromatin architectures previously described at different anterior to posterior body levels for the same embryo at a later stage. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C-seq) samples from mouse ES cells and mouse embryonic samples at different stages of development. Data based on 41 biological samples.

CTCF-Mediated Human 3D Genome Architecture Reveals Chromatin Topology for Transcription

Project description:Spatial genome organization and its effect on transcription remains a fundamental biological question. We applied an advanced ChIA-PET strategy to comprehensively map higher-order chromosome folding and chromatin interactions mediated by CTCF and RNAPII with haplotype specificity and nucleotide resolution in different human cell lineages. We find that CTCF-mediated interaction anchors serve as structural foci for spatial organization of constitutive genes concordant with CTCF-motif orientation, whereas RNAPII interacts within these structures by selectively drawing cell-type-specific genes towards CTCF-foci and forming RNAPII foci for coordinated transcription. Furthermore, allelic-variants linked to disease susceptibility are found to impact chromatin topology and transcriptional regulation. Importantly, 3D-genome simulation suggested a model of chromatin folding around chromosomal axes, where CTCF involves in defining the interface between condensed and open compartments for structural regulation. Our new 3D-genome strategy thus provides novel insights to explore the topological mechanism of human variations and diseases.

Chromosomal Architecture of Arabidopsis and its Implication in Transposon Intergration

Project description:Efficient storing and readout of genetic information is not only dependent on tight epigenetic regulation but also on the spatial organization and folding of chromosomes. Although the epigenome of the model plant Arabidopsis has been extensively studied, its interplay with chromosomal architecture is less well understood. We show that chromosomal architecture is tightly linked to the epigenetic state and furthermore how physical constraints such as nuclear size influence folding principles of chromatin. In addition to global principles of chromatin organisation, we describe a novel nuclear structure, termed KNOT, in which genomic regions of all five Arabidopsis chromosomes highly interact. These regions are characterized as heterochromatic islands within the euchromatin and likely represent preferred landing sites for transposons, suggesting a novel transposon defence mechanism in the Arabidopsis nucleus. HiC experiments were performed on Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 wildtype, homozygous crwn1-1, and homozygous crwn4-1 14-day-old seedlings

Selective Disruption of Core Regulatory Transcription [AQuA-HiChIP]

Project description:With emerging methods recently developed to capture protein-anchored 3D epigenome folding we herein report an experimental advance yielding a fundamental and systematic improvement in understanding the 3D genome: integrated normalization of orthologous chromatin for measurement of absolute changes in the landscape. With Absolute Quantification of chromatin Architecture (AQuA-HiChIP) global and local changes in the 3D epigenome can be measured, and the absolute differences in protein-anchored folding can be determined. These changes can be defined in a way that couples the relative occupancy of chromatin regulatory factors or histone marks to absolute quantification of 3D chromatin structure. While our method has intrinsic limitations, including restriction by the scope of available ChIP-grade antibodies with mouse/human cross-reactivity, the approach to measuring absolute components of chromatin folding will enable new insights into the topological determinants of transcriptional control and tissue-specific epigenetic memory.

H3K9 methylation fine-tunes coordination of transcription by regulating the conformational plasticity of chromosomal folding [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Despite that stochastic gene expression variations underlie lineage specification and adaptive responses, little is known about the plasticity of 3D chromatin folding and its effects on cell-to-cell transcriptional variability. Employing the Chromatin In Situ Proximity (ChrISP) technique we visualize here developmentally acquired chromosome 11-specific chromatin hubs rich in the repressive H3K9me2 mark that project towards the lamina in single cells. Inhibition of the H3Kme2 methyl-transferase G9a/Glp not only antagonizedperipheral chromatin compaction, but strikingly also induced the emergence of dense chromatin clusters in the nuclear interior. Changes in chromatin organization were accompanied by the spatial re-organization of transcriptional coordination without affecting the overall level of transcription. LOCKs thus topologically insulate active genes at the nuclear periphery, while allowing transcriptional coordination in the rest of the chromosome. We conclude that G9a/Glp controls not only the plasticity of chromatin conformations, but also spatial coordination of transcription to affect cellular gene expression variability.

Spatially resolved epigenomic profiling of single cells in complex tissues

Project description:The recent development of spatial omics enables single-cell profiling of the transcriptome and the 3D organization of the genome in a spatially resolved manner. A spatial epigenomics method would expand the repertoire of spatial omics tools and accelerate our understanding of the spatial regulation of cellular processes and tissue functions. Here, we developed an imaging approach for spatially resolved profiling of epigenetic modifications in single cells
