Single-molecule, single-cell profiling of linked chromatin states [Bulk_CUT&Tag]

ABSTRACT: Genomic methods for profiling multiple chromatin features face tradeoffs between specificity, sensitivity, and the ability to measure chromatin co-occupancy. As a result, context-dependent interactions between chromatin proteins remain difficult to resolve in rare cell types and primary tissues. Here, we present CoCUT&Tag, which uses synthetic antigen-peptide repeats paired with nanobodies to amplify Tn5 transposase targeting and directly measure co-occupancy of two chromatin features in single cells. We applied CoCUT&Tag to test the model that bivalent chromatin, marked by the coexistence of H3K27me3 and H3K4 methylation, preserves stem-cell multipotency by keeping developmental genes poised for future activation. Instead, we find that during human hematopoiesis, stem cells are defined by a more active chromatin landscape, whereas lineage-restricted populations contain more bivalent genes. Bivalent and unmarked genes are activated with similar timing, but bivalent genes achieve higher expression, are associated with more numerous and stronger enhancers, and are preferentially derepressed following BMI1 loss. Our study shows that bivalent chromatin increases enhancer demand to enable high-amplitude gene activation, demonstrating that CoCUT&Tag can resolve longstanding questions about combinatorial chromatin regulation.

Composite PRC1/dBRD4/MOZ/MORF protein complexes in Drosophila

Project description:In this project, we provide strong proteomic evidence for PcG interaction with classic co-activators, BRD4 and MOZ/MORF, captured on chromatin during embryogenesis in Drosophila, leading to a model in which developmental regulatory elements are universally ‘poised’ early in development via occupancy of composite protein complexes of PcG silencing proteins and classical co-activators. These bivalent protein interactions may resolve into full activation or repression, depending on the cell type-specific expression, binding, and function of transcription factors.

Lineage selective cardiac GATA4 chromatin occupancy [embryo]

Project description:We used cre-directed biotinylation of a GATA4 knockin allele with an AviTag epitope tag to measure GATA4 chromatin occupancy in endocardial and cardiomyocyte lineages in the E12.5 heart. These data are complemented by lineage selective measurement of gene expression and chromatin accessibility. Cardiomyocyte accessibility and gene expression data were reported in GSE124008.

Tracking bivalency through early mouse differentiation

Project description:Nucleosomes, composed of DNA and histone proteins, represent the fundamental repeating unit of the eukaryotic genome; posttranslational modifications of these histone proteins influence the activity of the associated genomic regions to regulate cell identity. Traditionally, trimethylation of histone H3K4 (H3K4me3) is associated with transcriptional initiation, whereas trimethylation of H3K27 (H3K27me3) is transcriptionally repressive. The apparent juxtaposition of these opposing marks, termed “bivalent domains”, was proposed to specifically demarcate of small set transcriptionally-poised lineage-commitment genes that resolve to one constituent modification through differentiation, thereby determining transcriptional status. Since then, many thousands of studies have canonized the bivalency model as a chromatin hallmark of development in many cell types. However, these conclusions are largely based on chromatin immunoprecipitations (ChIP) with significant methodological problems hampering their interpretation. Absent direct quantitative measurements, it has been difficult to evaluate the strength of the bivalency model. Here, we present reICeChIP, a calibrated sequential ChIP method to quantitatively measure H3K4me3/H3K27me3 bivalency genome-wide, addressing the limitations of prior measurements. With reICeChIP, we profile bivalency through the differentiation paradigm that first established this model: from naïve mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) into neuronal progenitor cells (NPCs). Our results cast doubt on every aspect of the bivalency model; in this context, we find that bivalency is widespread, does not resolve with differentiation, and is neither sensitive nor specific for identifying poised developmental genes or gene expression status more broadly. Our findings caution against interpreting bivalent domains as specific markers of developmentally poised genes.

Incoming poxvirus dsDNA genomes differentially activate AIM2 or NLRP3 inflammasomes in human cells

Project description:The innate immune system recognizes cytosolic DNA as evidence of infection, although detailed analysis is mostly limited to mice and cell lines. To investigate inflammasome responses in human primary cells, we used the inflammasome reporter caspase-1CARD-EGFP (C1C-EGFP) encoded in engineered viruses. We found that released genomes of the model poxvirus vaccinia virus (VACV) and monkeypox virus (MPXV) trigger robust inflammasome assembly in human primary cells. To determine the involved inflammasome sensors, we generated nanobodies against AIM2. Three of them inhibit AIM2 inflammasome assembly by blocking the polymerization of the AIM2 PYD, most potently as bivalent nanobodies. Utilizing VACV expressing bivalent AIM2 nanobodies, we show that inflammasomes in primary human macrophages and keratinocytes are nucleated by AIM2, while CD14+ monocytes assemble NLRP3 inflammasomes. This resolves the discrepancy between the previously reported activation of AIM2 inflammasomes in mice and NLRP3 inflammasomes in humans and provides the first evidence of cell-type-specific regulation of DNA-triggered inflammasome activation. The newly developed AIM2-specific nanobodies offer a precise tool to dissect and potentially target AIM2 inflammasome assembly in other disease contexts.

Hyperosmotic stress induces a large-scale rewiring of 3D chromatin interactions [mAID2 Hi-C]

Project description:Cells rapidly adapt to hyperosmotic stress through coordinated molecular responses. To determine how three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure contributes to this process, we profiled chromatin interactions, architectural protein occupancy, and transcriptional dynamics in human cells exposed to sorbitol-induced hyperosmotic stress. We performed time-resolved Hi-C to measure stress-induced remodeling of chromatin loops and domains, CUT&Tag to quantify CTCF, RAD21, YAP1, and H3K27ac occupancy at loop anchors, and RNA-seq to capture stress-responsive transcriptional programs. These data reveal global loss of pre-existing chromatin contacts and concurrent formation of de novo, transient loops enriched for retained CTCF and cohesin, as well as transcriptional responses that are temporally layered and largely decoupled from loop remodeling. This dataset provides a resource for investigating how nuclear architecture and transcriptional regulation respond to hyperosmotic stress.
