Genetic and epigenetic variation in the lineage specification of regulatory T cells

ABSTRACT: ChIP-seq of H3K27ac was performed in regulatory T cells (resting and activated) and conventional T cells (naïve, effector, memory) in mouse and human. A small number of regulatory elements were lineage specific in both mouse and human and represented the 'core' lineage specification program. Regulatory element acetylation levels were associated with genetic variation in humans and lineage-specific loci were enriched for autoimmune risk-alleles (especially type 1 diabetes) identified in classic and fine-resolution genome-wide association studies.

ZFP462 safeguards neural lineage specification by targeting G9A/GLP-mediated heterochromatin to silence enhancers

Project description:ZNF462 haploinsufficiency is linked to Weiss-Kruszka Syndrome, a genetic disorder characterized by neurodevelopmental defects including Autism. Though conserved in vertebrates and essential for embryonic development the molecular functions of ZNF462 remain unclear. We identified its murine homolog ZFP462 in a screen for mediators of epigenetic gene silencing. Here, we show that ZFP462 safeguards neural lineage specification of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by targeting the H3K9-specific histone methyltransferase complex G9A/GLP to silence mesoendodermal genes. ZFP462 binds to transposable elements (TEs) that are potential enhancers harboring ESC-specific transcription factor (TF) binding sites. Recruiting G9A/GLP, ZFP462 seeds heterochromatin, restricting TF binding. Loss of ZFP462 in ESCs results in increased chromatin accessibility at target sites and ectopic expression of mesoendodermal genes. Taken together, ZFP462 confers lineage- and locus-specificity to the broadly expressed epigenetic regulator G9A/GLP. Our results suggest that aberrant activation of lineage non-specific genes in the neuronal lineage underlies ZNF462-associated neurodevelopmental pathology.

Single Cell Transcriptome Mapping of Human Thymopoiesis Reveals a Continuum of Cell States During T-Lineage Specification and Commitment

Project description:Single cell studies elucidating the transcriptional continuum underpinning lineage commitment in the human bone marrow (BM) have advanced the understanding of hematopoiesis beyond the classic hierarchical model. However, T-lineage commitment, which occurs in the thymus remains incompletely defined. We mapped single cell transcriptomes spanning post-natal human thymopoiesis including the earliest progenitors. Instead of previously described discrete populations, transcriptional and lineage assay data resolved a continuum of novel cell states within CD34+ thymic progenitor cells. The initial stages of thymopoiesis involve multilineage priming of single cells followed by a gradual transition to T-commitment, a continuum previously undescribed outside the BM. Early progenitors express a hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) like profile but unlike HSC show initiation of T-priming. Species related differences exist in the earliest progenitor cells.

Dynamic epigenomic landscapes during early lineage specification in mouse embryos

Project description:In mammals, all somatic development originates from lineage segregation in early embryos. However, the dynamics of transcriptomes and epigenomes in concert with initial cell fate commitment remains poorly characterized. Here, we report comprehensive investigation of transcriptomes and base-resolution methylomes for early lineages in peri- and postimplantation mouse embryos. We found allele- and lineage-specific de novo methylation at CG and CH sites, leading to differential methylation between embryonic and extraembryonic lineages at promoters of lineage regulators, gene bodies, and DNA methylation valleys. By determining chromatin architecture using Hi-C across the same developmental period, we showed both global demethylation and remethylation in early development correlate with chromatin compartments. Dynamic local methylation is evident during gastrulation, which revealed maps of putative regulatory elements. Finally, we found that de novo methylation patterning does not strictly require implantation. These data unveiled dynamic transcriptomes, DNA methylomes, and 3D chromatin landscapes during the earliest mammalian lineage specification.

Dynamic BRG1 Recruitment During T Helper Differentiation And Activation Reveals Distal Regulatory Elements

Project description:We found binding of the remodeling protein BRG1 was programmed by lineage and activation signals. BRG1 binding was positively correlated with gene activity at protein-coding and miRNA genes. BRG1 binding was found at promoters and distal regions, including known and novel distal regulatory elements. Distal BRG1 binding correlated with expression, and novel distal sites possessed enhancer activity, suggesting a general role for BRG1 in long-distance gene regulation. Together, these findings suggest BRG1 interprets differentiation and activation signals and plays a causal role in gene regulation, chromatin structure, and cell fate. Our findings indicate BRG1 binding is a useful marker for identifying cis-regulatory regions in protein-coding and miRNA genes. Compare BRG1 binding in T helper subsets genome wide; Naïve, resting Th1, resting Th2, Stimulated Th1, Stimulated Th2, Stimulated Th17, compared to input DNA as negative control

Massively parallel quantification of the regulatory effects of non-coding genetic variation

Project description:We report a novel high-throughput method to empirically quantify individual-specific regulatory element activity at the population scale. The approach combines targeted DNA capture with a high-throughput reporter-gene expression assay. As demonstration, we have measured the activity of more than 100 putative regulatory elements from 95 individuals in a single experiment. We found that, in agreement with previous reports, most genetic variants have weak effects on distal regulatory element activity. Because haplotypes are typically maintained within but not between assayed regulatory elements, the approach can be used to identify likely causal regulatory haplotypes that contribute to human phenotypes. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of the method to functionally fine map causal regulatory variants in regions of high linkage disequilibrium identified by expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses.

CTCF coordinates cell fate specification via orchestrating regulatory hubs with pioneer transcription factors

Project description:CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF), a ubiquitously expressed architectural protein, has emerged as a key regulator of cell identity gene transcription. However, the precise molecular mechanism underlying specialized functions of CTCF remains elusive. Here, we investigate the mechanism through integrative analyses of primary hepatocytes, myocytes, and B cells from mouse and human. We demonstrate that CTCF cooperates with lineage-specific pioneer transcription factors (TFs), including MyoD, FOXA, and PU.1, to control cell identity at 1D and 3D levels. At the 1D level, pioneer TFs facilitate lineage-specific CTCF occupancy via opening chromatin. At the 3D level, CTCF and pioneer TFs form regulatory hubs to govern the expression of cell identity genes. This mechanism is validated using MyoD-null mice, CTCF knockout mice, and CRISPR editing during myogenic differentiation. Collectively, these findings uncover a general mechanism whereby CTCF acts as a cell identity cofactor to control cell identity genes via orchestrating regulatory hubs with pioneer TFs.
