Analysis of chromatin structure of the BCL11A locus in HUDEP-2 cells by Capture-Pore-C (CPC)

ABSTRACT: CRISPR editing of an intronic enhancer within the BCL11A gene reactivates fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in adult erythroid cells, serving as a gene-based therapy for hemoglobinopathies. However, the mechanisms underlying the remarkable efficacy of CRISPR-mediated enhancer ablation remain poorly understood. We describe an evolutionarily conserved, enhancer-dependent chromatin architecture, the enhancer-CTCF rosette, essential for chromatin insulation and the developmental expression of BCL11A in hematopoiesis. CRISPR-mediated disruption of lineage-specific BCL11A enhancers impairs enhancer RNA transcription and NIPBL-cohesin loading, leading to destabilized chromatin configuration, impaired chromatin insulation, and epigenetic silencing of BCL11A. Antisense oligonucleotide-mediated depletion of enhancer RNA silences BCL11A by disrupting chromatin insulation in adult erythroid cells.

Analysis of nascent transcription by PRO-cap in HUDEP-2 cells

Project description:CRISPR editing of an intronic enhancer within the BCL11A gene reactivates fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in adult erythroid cells, offering a potential gene-based therapy for hemoglobinopathies. However, the mechanisms underlying the remarkable efficacy of CRISPR-mediated enhancer ablation remain poorly understood. Enhancer RNAs, transcribed from enhancers, play a role in gene regulation. We apply PRO-cap to map the location of active polymerases and transcription start sites.

Temporal resolution of gene derepression and proteome changes upon PROTAC-mediated degradation of BCL11A protein in erythroid cells

Project description:Reactivation of fetal hemoglobin expression by down-regulation of BCL11A is a promising treatment of -hemoglobinopathies. A detailed understanding of BCL11A-mediated repression of -globin gene (HBG1/2) transcription is lacking, as studies to date used perturbations by shRNA or CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. We leveraged the dTAG PROTAC platform to acutely deplete BCL11A protein in erythroid cells and examined consequences by PRO-seq, proteomics, chromatin accessibility, and histone profiling. Among ≤ 31 genes repressed by BCL11A, HBG1/2 and HBZ show the most abundant and progressive changes in transcription and chromatin accessibility upon BCL11A loss. Transcriptional changes at HBG1/2 were detected in < 2h. Robust HBG1/2 reactivation upon acute BCL11A-depletion occurred without loss of promoter 5methylcytosine (5mC). Using targeted protein degradation, we establish a hierarchy of gene reactivation at BCL11A targets, in which nascent transcription is followed by increased chromatin accessibility, and both are uncoupled from promoter DNA methylation at the HBG1/2 loci.

Transcriptome of erythroid cells derived from human CD34+ cells edited at the BCL11A erythroid enahncer or at the HBG1 and HBG2 promoters using CRISPR-Cas9

Project description:BCL11A represses gamma globin expression by binding to the gamma globin gene (HBG1 and HBG2) promoters. Genome editing of the BCL11A erythroid enhancer in the intron 2 of BCL11A gene or the BCL11A binding site at the HBG1/2 promoters disrupts this pathway and leads to gamma globin induction. Transcriptomic profiling of erythroid cells derived from human CD34+ cells edited at either target site using CRISPR-Cas9 revealed broader transcriptome perturbation when edited at the BCL11A erythroid enhancer.

BCL11A is required for normal erythropoiesis [RNA-seq_Sorted]

Project description:Genetic depletion of the transcriptional repressor BCL11A in red blood cell precursors alleviates b-hemoglobinopathies by inducing the fetal g-globin genes. However, several additional erythroid genes are regulated by BCL11A and the effects of its deficiency on erythropoiesis are insufficiently described. We discovered that Cas9 disruption of the BCL11A intron 2 erythroid enhancer in CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) according to a clinically approved strategy caused impaired expansion and increased apoptosis of erythroid precursors in vitro and in vivo. Mutant colony-forming unit erythroid (CFU-e), proerythroblasts, and basophilic erythroblasts exhibited dysregulation of 94 genes (> 2-fold change, FDR < 0.05). 25 of which are likely direct targets of BCL11A. Differentially expressed genes were associated with numerous biological pathways that impact cell expansion and survival. Our findings show that BCL11A regulates additional aspects of erythropoiesis beyond g-globin gene repression.
