Positional Interpretation of Cis-Regulatory Code and Nucleosome Organization with Deep Learning Models

ABSTRACT: Sequence-to-function neural networks learn cis-regulatory sequence rules driving many types of genomic data. Interpreting these models to relate the sequence rules to underlying biological processes remains challenging, especially for complex genomic readouts such as MNase-seq, which maps nucleosome occupancy but is confounded by experimental bias. We introduce pairwise influence by sequence attribution (PISA), an interpretation tool that combinatorially decodes which bases contributed to the readout at a specific genomic coordinate. PISA visualizes the effects of transcription factor motifs, detects undiscovered motifs with complex contribution patterns, and reveals experimental biases. By learning the bias for MNase-seq, PISA enables unprecedented nucleosome prediction models, allowing the \emph{de novo} discovery of nucleosome-positioning motifs and their long-range chromatin effects, as well as the design of sequences with altered nucleosome configurations. These results show that PISA is a versatile tool that expands our ability to train and interpret sequence-to-function neural networks on genomics data and understand the underlying cis-regulatory code.

Regulation of nucleosome positioning by a CHD Type III chromatin remodeller and its relationship to developmental gene expression in Dictyostelium [MNase-seq]

Project description:We utilized MNase-seq to profile nucleosome positions in wild type (Ax2) and ChdC null cells both in growing cells and a partially developed state (loose-mound) to study changes in nucleosome positioning and occupancy during development and the impact the deletion of ChdC an ATP-dependent chromatin remodeller has on nucleosome positioning and occupancy. As a control for MNase sequence bias we also digested naked DNA with MNase.

Subtracting the sequence bias from partially digested MNase-seq data reveals a general contribution of TFIIS to nucleosome dynamics

Project description:Understanding chromatin dynamics is a key to other related processes, including DNA replication, transcription and recombination. As a first step, recently, an increasing amount of effort has been devoted to precisely define nucleosome positioning in different organisms. The most popular method to do so is digestion by Micrococcal nuclease (MNase), nowadays followed by ultrasequencing of the generated fragments. Although the sequence bias of MNase has been known for a long time, a data-based way of correcting this bias for sequencing experiments is still missing. Here we provide such a method, based on the digestion of naked DNA and the use of the bioinformatic tool DANPOS. Using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model, we demonstrate that the overall quality of the data is better after the correction proposed here. The characteristics of the method make it perfectly applicable to any other organism. Moreover, we find that the correction affects more to TATA containing genes than to TATA-like genes. Importantly, the correction uncovers a new role for TFIIS in chromatin dynamics. The absence of TFIIS caused a general increase in nucleosome fuzziness, and a higher peak of the -1 nucleosome at some promoters

Two Distinct Promoter Nucleosome Architectures at Protein-Coding Genes in Yeast

Project description:Previous studies indicate that eukaryotic promoters display a stereotypical chromatin landscape characterized by a well-positioned +1 nucleosome near the transcription start site and an upstream -1 nucleosome that together demarcate a nucleosome-free (or depleted) region. Here we present evidence that there are two distinct types of promoters distinguished by the resistance of the -1 nucleosome to micrococcal nuclease digestion. These different architectures are characterized by two sequence motifs that are broadly deployed at one set of promoters where a nuclease-sensitive ("fragile") nucleosome forms, but concentrated in a more narrow, nucleosome-free region at all other promoters. The RSC nucleosome remodeler acts through the motifs to establish stable +1 and -1 nucleosome positions, while binding of a small set of general regulatory (pioneer) factors at fragile nucleosome promoters plays a key role in their destabilization. We propose that the fragile nucleosome promoter architecture is adapted for regulation of highly expressed, growth-related genes. MNase-seq profiles obtained with various MNase concentrations from wild-type cells and cells depleted of different factors. ChIP-seq using anti-RNA polymerase II antibody, anti-histone H2A antibody, and anti-histone H3 antibody.

Hypersensitive Nucleosomes in Chromatin Are Intrinsic to the Structure of Active, Tissue-Specific Enhancers [MNase-Seq]

Project description:In higher eukaryotes, enhancers and promoters share many properties, including binding of transcription factors, existing in open chromatin, and bidirectional transcription. Yet the structural features that distinguish enhancers and promoters are unclear. Genome-wide micrococcal nuclease (MNase) studies previously interpreted MNase hypersensitivity to indicate that active enhancers and promoters are nucleosome-free, yet other studies found histone variants and post-translational modifications at active enhancers. We find that prior MNase genomic studies have an overdigestion bias and that low-level MNase digestion, coupled with mapping core histones, reveals two classes of MNase-hypersensitive sites: at active promoters, which are nucleosome depleted, and at tissue-specific enhancers, which retain core histones and co-bound transcription factors substantially more than promoters. Hypersensitivity of active enhancer nucleosomes may reflect their preferential exposure in chromatin and can be maintained by pioneer transcription factors such as FoxA. These findings unveil fundamental differences in the chromatin structure of active enhancers and promoters.

High-throughput sequencing reveals a simple model of nucleosome energetics

Project description:We use nucleosome maps obtained by high-throughput sequencing to study sequence specificity of intrinsic histone-DNA interactions. In contrast with previous approaches, we employ an analogy between a classical one-dimensional fluid of finite-size particles in an arbitrary external potential and arrays of DNA-bound histone octamers. We derive an analytical solution to infer free energies of nucleosome formation directly from nucleosome occupancies measured in high-throughput experiments. The sequence-specific part of free energies is then captured by fitting them to a sum of energies assigned to individual nucleotide motifs. We have developed hierarchical models of increasing complexity and spatial resolution, establishing that nucleosome occupancies can be explained by systematic differences in mono- and dinucleotide content between nucleosomal and linker DNA sequences, with periodic dinucleotide distributions and longer sequence motifs playing a secondary role. Furthermore, similar sequence signatures are exhibited by control experiments in which genomic DNA is either sonicated or digested with micrococcal nuclease in the absence of nucleosomes, making it possible that current predictions based on highthroughput nucleosome positioning maps are biased by experimental artifacts. Included are raw (eland) and mapped (wig) reads. The mapped reads are provided in eland and wiggle formats, and the raw reads are included in the eland file. This series includes only Mnase control data. The sonicated control is part of this already published accession, as is a in vitro nucleosome map: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE15188 We also studied data (in vitro and in vivo maps as well as a model) from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE13622 and from: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/?term=SRA001023

High-resolution analysis of chromatin structure by Mnase-SSP

Project description:Proof-of-concept for Mnase-SSP: a variant of Mnase-seq. Mnase-SSP dramatically increases the representation of short fragments of nucleolytically-digested DNA, enabling simultaneous analysis of transcription factor binding and nucleosome occupancy using the same assay. We used MNase-SSP to demarcate chromatin architecture at murine promoters and at transcription factor binding sites in murine embryonic stem cells. Are results reveal heterogeneity in the binding mode of C2H2 zinc fingers like Ctcf and Rest, demonstrating that Mnase-SSP, and SSP in general, as a flexible platform for profiling nucleolytically digested DNA for MNase-seq, MNase-ChIP, or CUT&RUN with reduced bias.

Quantitative MNase-seq accurately maps nucleosome occupancy levels

Project description:Chromatin mapping using micrococcal nuclease (MNase) has been the standard tool for mapping nucleosomes for >40 years. When coupled with DNA sequencing, MNase-seq can provide base-pair-resolution nucleosome maps. However, determining nucleosome occupancy using MNase-seq has been hampered by its aggressive endo-/exo-nuclease activities, whereby cleavages within linker regions produce oligo- and mono-nucleosomes whereas cleavages within nucleosomes destroy them. Here we introduce a theoretical framework for predicting nucleosome occupancies and an experimental protocol with appropriate spike-in normalization that confirms our theory and provides accurate occupancy levels over an MNase digestion time-course. As expected, DNaseI hypersensitive sites and transcription units are digested by MNase at elevated rates, and the apparent deficiency of nucleosomes at 3’ ends of Drosophila genes is an artifact of MNase preference for AT-rich DNA. Surprisingly, we observed no overall differences between Drosophila euchromatin and heterochromatin, which implies that heterochromatin compaction does not render nucleosomal DNA less accessible than euchromatin.
