MPE-seq, a New Method for the Genome-wide Analysis of Chromatin Structure

ABSTRACT: In this study we developed MPE-seq, a method for the genome-wide characterization of chromatin that involves the digestion of nuclei with methidiumpropyl-EDTA-Fe(II) [MPE-Fe(II)] followed by massively parallel sequencing. Like micrococcal nuclease (MNase), MPE-Fe(II) preferentially cleaves the linker DNA between nucleosomes. We also performed MNase-seq as a comparison. We further performed ChIP-seq using chromatin samples obtained by MPE-Fe(II) or MNase digestion of nuclei.

We further performed ChIP-seq using chromatin samples obtained by MPE-Fe(II) or MNase digestion of nuclei. Nuclei from J1 mouse embryonic stem cells were treated with MPE-Fe(II) or MNase. The isolated DNA was sequenced by Illumina HiSeq sequencers. Some of the digested chromatin was studied by performing ChIP-seq using antibodies against histone H2B or H3.

MNase-seq analysis in human breast cancer cells

Project description:Nucleosomes are the most basic units of chromatin and are regulators of genome integrity and gene expression. The fundamental mechanism how nucleosomes are dynamically regulated is one of the main questions in chromatin organization; most of the study has, however, focused on its positioning. Here we performed HiLo-MNase-seq, which involves limit and partial digestion of chromatin by micrococcal nuclease (MNase) to identify the positioning of nucleosome array along with the kinetics of MNase digestion. We identified a subset of unique nucleosomes with fast digestion kinetics at the transcription factor binding sites that have been characterized as nucleosome depleted regions (NDRs). By inhibiting RNA polymerase II, we also showed that those nucleosomes changed its sensitivity to MNase in a context-dependent manner. These findings implicated a self-reinforcing regulatory network involving nucleosomes, Pol II, and transcription factors for fine-tuning of gene expression.

Epigenome characterization at single base-pair resolution

Project description:We have combined standard micrococcal (MNase) digestion of nuclei with a modified protocol for construction paired-end DNA sequencing libraries to map both nucleosomes and subnucleosome-sized particles at single base-pair resolution throughout the budding yeast genome. We found that partially unwrapped nucleosomes and subnucleosome-sized particles can occupy the same position within a cell population, suggesting dynamic behavior. By varying the time of MNase digestion, we have been able to observe changes that reflect differential sensitivity of particles, including eviction of nucleosomes. Our protocol and mapping method provide a general strategy for characterizing full epigenomes. We used micrococcal nuclease mapping, chromatin immunoprecipitation and paired-end sequencing to determine the structure of yeast centromeres at single base-pair resolution.

The ISW1 and CHD1 ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers compete to set nucleosome spacing in vivo

Project description:We addressed the roles of three nucleosome spacing enzymes (ISW1, ISW2 and CHD1) in specifying chromatin organization in S. cerevisiae. Comparison of budding yeast nucleosome positions obtained using micrococcal nuclease digestion followed by paired-end sequencing (MNase-seq). We sequenced nucleosomes from isogenic strains with the isw1Î, isw2Î or chd1Î mutations in all combinations. We measured gene activity by ChIP-seq for the Rpb3 subunit of RNA polymerase II for some of these mutants.

Chromatin landscape of Leishmania major

Project description:We sought to identify nuclease-hypersensitive sites and to quantify nucleosome positions in an effort to identify cis-regulatory elements in the protozoan parasite Leishmania major. Using micrococcal nuclease digestion of chromatin (MNAse-seq), we report that few nuclease hypersensitive sites are present within the presumed regions of RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription initiation, and that similar numbers of nuclease hypersensitive sites were found in control datasets. However, utilizing an independent approach (FAIRE), we observe that a heterogeneous population of nuclease hypersensitive sites are present in and around these regions, and that nucleosomes within these regions are susceptible to MNAse overdigestion.

Meiotic recombination initiation hotspots in Arabidopsis genes and transposons (MNase-seq)

Project description:To analyse nucleosome positioning and occupancy we performed micrococcal nuclease digestion of Arabidopsis wild type (Col-0) chromatin and gel purified the resulting ~150 bp mononucleosomal DNA band. This DNA was used to generate a library and paired-end sequencing performed (MNase-seq). To further examine influence of SWR1 chromatin remodelling complex and DNA methylation on nucleosome occupancy, we repeated MNase-seq in Aarabidopsis arp6 and met1 mutant.

Novel nucleosomal particles containing core histones and linker DNA but no histone H1

Project description:The nucleosome plays a central role in genome regulation. Traditional methods for mapping nucleosomes depend on the resistance of the nucleosome core to micrococcal nuclease (MNase). However, the lengths of the protected DNA fragments are heterogeneous, limiting the accuracy of nucleosome position information. To resolve this problem, we removed residual linker DNA by simultaneous digestion of yeast chromatin with MNase and exonuclease III (ExoIII). Paired-end sequencing of mono-nucleosomes revealed not only core particles (145-147 bp), but also intermediate particles in which ~8 bp project from one side (154 bp) or both sides (161 bp) of the nucleosome core. We term these particles "pseudo-chromatosomes" because they are present in yeast lacking linker histone. They are also observed after MNase-ExoIII digestion of chromatin reconstituted using recombinant core histones. We propose that the pseudo-chromatosome provides a DNA framework to facilitate H1 binding. Comparison of budding yeast nucleosome sequences obtained using micrococcal nuclease (MNase-seq) and MNase + exonuclease III (ExoIII) (MNase-ExoIII-seq): wild type cells and hho1-null cells. Nucleosome sequences from native chromatin and H1-depleted chromatin from mouse liver. Nucleosome sequences from a plasmid reconstituted into nucleosomes using recombinant yeast histones or native chicken erythrocyte histones.

Differences in RNA polymerase II complexes and their interactions with surrounding chromatin on human and cytomegalovirus genomes [ChIP-seq]

Project description:To investigate the chromatin structure surrounding human RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription on host and viral genomes, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed following digestion of HCMV infected primary human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) with DNA Fragmentation Factor (DFF). DFF is a human endonuclease responsible for cleaving between nucleosomes during apoptosis. We found that utilizing DFF as the front end for ChIP-Seq in place of sonication or Micrococcal nuclease (MNase) offered new insights into the connections between active transcription and the local chromatin on the host and that these connections were completely absent on the HCMV genome.

MNase and HpaII sensitivity assays in MCF7 breast cancer cells

Project description:DNA are packaged into nucleosomes and chromatin. We performed incomplete MNase digestion of chromatin to identify nucleosome-free regions that may indicate active promoters and regulatory regions. Additionally, HpaII digestion was performed which cleaves CCGG sites when the internal C remains unmodified. The hypomethylation state and nuclease sensitivity of the chromatin are indicators of transcription regulatory regions.
