Hyperosmotic stress induces a large-scale rewiring of 3D chromatin interactions

ABSTRACT: Cells rapidly adapt to hyperosmotic stress through coordinated molecular responses. To determine how three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure and chromatin accessibility contribute to this process, we profiled chromatin interactions, architectural protein occupancy, open chromatin regions, 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, ATAC-seq to map changes in chromatin accessibility before and after sorbitol treatment, 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, alongside widespread changes in chromatin accessibility and transcriptional responses that are temporally layered and largely decoupled from loop remodeling. This dataset provides a resource for investigating how nuclear architecture, chromatin accessibility, and transcriptional regulation respond to hyperosmotic stress.

Acute depletion of CTCF rewires genome-wide chromatin accessibility

Project description:The transcription factor CTCF appears indispensable in defining topologically associated domain boundaries and maintaining chromatin loop structures within these domains, supported by numerous functional studies. However, acute depletion of CTCF globally reduces chromatin interactions but does not significantly alter transcription. Here we systematically integrated multi-omics data including ATAC-seq, RNA-seq, WGBS, Hi-C, Cut&Run, CRISPR-Cas9 survival dropout screening, time-solved deep proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses in cells carrying auxin-induced degron at endogenous CTCF locus. Acute CTCF protein degradation markedly rewired genome-wide chromatin accessibility. Increased accessible chromatin regions were largely located adjacent to CTCF-binding sites at promoter regions and insulator sites and were associated with enhanced transcription of nearby genes. In addition, we used CTCF-associated multi-omics data to establish a combinatorial data analysis pipeline to discover CTCF co-regulatory partners in regulating downstream gene expression. We successfully identified 40 candidates, including multiple established partners (i.e., MYC) supported by all layers of evidence. Interestingly, many CTCF co-regulators (e.g., YY1, ZBTB7A) that have evident alterations of respective downstream gene expression do not show changes at their expression levels across the multi-omics measurements upon acute CTCF loss, highlighting the strength of our system to discover hidden co-regulatory partners associated with CTCF-mediated transcription. This study highlights CTCF loss rewires genome-wide chromatin accessibility, which plays a critical role in transcriptional regulation

Systematic assessment of ISWI subunits reveals that NURF creates local accessibility for proper CTCF function

Project description:Catalytic activity of the ISWI family of remodelers is critical for nucleosomal organization and transcription factor binding, including the insulator protein CTCF. To define which subcomplex mediates these diverse functions we phenotyped a panel of isogenic mouse stem cell lines each lacking one of six ISWI accessory subunits. Individual deletions of either CERF, RSF1, ACF, WICH or NoRC subcomplexes only moderately affect the chromatin landscape, while removal of the NURF-specific subunit BPTF leads to drastic reduction in chromatin accessibility and Snf2h ATPase localization around CTCF sites. While this reduces distances to the adjacent nucleosomes it only modestly impacts CTCF binding itself. In absence of accessibility, the insulator function of CTCF is nevertheless impaired resulting in lower occupancy of cohesin and cohesin-loading factors, and reduced insulation at these sites, highlighting the need of NURF-mediated remodeling for open chromatin and proper CTCF function. Our comprehensive analysis reveals a specific role for NURF in mediating Snf2h localization and chromatin opening at bound CTCF sites showing that local accessibility is critical for cohesin binding and insulator function.

Acute depletion of CTCF rewires genome-wide chromatin accessibility

Project description:Accumulated data suggest that transcription factor CTCF is indispensable to define topologically associated domain (TAD) boundaries and to maintain intra-TAD chromatin loop structures. However, upon genome-wide acute depletion of CTCF, the discrepancy between global reduction of chromatin interactions and minimal alteration of transcription has been evidently observed. To understand CTCF’s direct role in chromatin accessibility and global transcriptional regulation, we have systematically integrated data collected from ATAC-seq, RNA-seq, whole genome bisulfite-seq, Cut&Run and HiC in a previously established CTCF-miniAID knock-in cell lines. Acute degradation of CTCF markedly rewires genome-wide chromatin accessibility but not DNA methylation. Differentially altered ATAC-seq peaks are highly associated with adjacent CTCF binding sites, supporting the direct link between CTCF occupancy and its surrounding chromatin accessibility. Increased ATAC-seq peaks upon CTCF loss are notably associated with enhanced transcription at promoter regions and insulator sites, while decreased ATAC-seq peaks are significantly enriched at DNA loops. Furthermore, using CTCF associated multi-Omics data we have established a combinatorial data analysis pipeline to discover novel CTCF mediated insulators in the genome, by which we have successfully identified 67 novel insulators at non-coding regions distal to promoters. Functional CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) unconstrained the repressive transcriptional regulation of target genes. In sum, using CTCF acute depletion cell model and multi-Omics analysis, we concluded that CTCF loss rewires genome-wide chromatin accessibility, which plays a critical role for transcriptional regulation.

Proximity labeling identifies a repertoire of site-specific R-loop modulators

Project description:R-loops are three stranded nucleic acid structures that accumulate on chromatin in neurological diseases and cancers and that contribute to genome instability. Using a proximity-dependent labeling system, we identified distinct classes of proteins that regulate R-loops in vivo through different mechanisms. We show that ATRX suppresses R-loops by interacting with RNAs and preventing R-loop formation. Our proteomics screen also discovered an unexpected enrichment for proteins containing zinc fingers and homeodomains at R-loops. One of the most consistently enriched proteins at R-loops was activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP), which is frequently mutated in ASD and causal in ADNP syndrome. We find that ADNP is necessary to suppress R-loops in vivo at its genomic targets and that it resolves R-loops in vitro. Furthermore, deletion of the homeodomain severely diminishes R-loop resolution activity in vitro, results in R-loop accumulation at ADNP targets and compromises neuronal differentiation. Notably, patient derived human induced pluripotent stem cells that contain an ADNP syndrome-causing mutation exhibit R-loop and CTCF accumulation at ADNP targets. Our findings point to a specific role for ADNP-mediated R-loop resolution in physiological and pathological neuronal function and, more broadly, to a previously unappreciated role for zinc finger and homeodomain proteins in R-loop regulation, with important implications for developmental disorders and cancers.

Chromatin loop dynamics during cellular differentiation are associated with changes to both anchor and internal regulatory features [dataset 2]

Project description:3D chromatin structure is thought to play a critical role in regulating gene transcription during cellular transitions. While our understanding of loop formation and maintenance is rapidly improving, much less is known about the mechanisms driving changes in looping and the impact of differential looping on gene transcription. One limitation has been a lack of well powered differential looping data sets. To address this, we conducted a deeply sequenced Hi-C time course of megakaryocyte development comprising 4 biological replicates and 6 billion reads per time point. Statistical analysis revealed 1,503 differential loops. Gained loops were enriched for AP-1 occupancy and correlated with increased expression of genes at their anchors. Lost loops were characterized by increases in expression of genes within the loop boundaries. Linear modeling revealed that changes in histone H3K27 acetylation, chromatin accessibility, and JUN binding in between the loop anchors were often just as predictive of changes in loop strength as changes to CTCF and/or cohesin occupancy at loop anchors. Finally, we built linear models and found that incorporating the dynamics of enhancer acetylation and loop strength increased accuracy of gene expression predictions. Together, our well-powered study has added to our understanding of the mechanisms that regulate looping, and the relationship of looping with gene expression.
