Unlinking a lncRNA from its associated cis element [gene expression]

ABSTRACT: Transcriptome analysis of effect of Lockd knockout on cells Many long non-coding (lnc) RNAs are reported to regulate gene expression and protein functions. However, the proportion of lncRNAs with biological activities among the thousands expressed in mammalian cells is controversial. We studied Lockd (Downstream of p27), a 434 bp polyadenylated lncRNA originating 4 kb 3’ to the Cdkn1b gene. Heterozygous and homozygous deletion of the 25 kb Lockd locus reduced Cdkn1b transcription by approximately 35 and 70% respectively in a mouse erythroid cell line. In contrast, homozygous insertion of a polyadenylation cassette 80 bp downstream of the Lockd transcription start site reduced the entire lncRNA transcript level by > 90%, but had no effect on Cdkn1b transcription. The 5’ region of the Lockd gene contains a DNase hypersensitive site, binds numerous transcription factors (TFs), and physically associates with the Cdkn1b promoter in chromosomal conformation capture (NG Capture-C) studies. Thus, the Lockd gene positively regulates Cdkn1b transcription through an enhancer-like cis element and not via the lncRNA transcript. These findings demonstrate that the biological functions of a lncRNA cannot be inferred simply from phenotypes that arise after deleting the corresponding genomic locus.

Unlinking a lncRNA from its associated cis element [Capture-C]

Project description:Capture-C using probes at the Cdkn1b promoter and the Lockd promoter Many long non-coding (lnc) RNAs are reported to regulate gene expression and protein functions. However, the proportion of lncRNAs with biological activities among the thousands expressed in mammalian cells is controversial. We studied Lockd (LncRNA downstream of Cdkn1b), a 434 bp polyadenylated lncRNA originating 4 kb 3â to the Cdkn1b gene. Heterozygous and homozygous deletion of the 25 kb Lockd locus reduced Cdkn1b transcription by approximately 35 and 70% respectively in a mouse erythroid cell line. In contrast, homozygous insertion of a polyadenylation cassette 80 bp downstream of the Lockd transcription start site reduced the entire lncRNA transcript level by > 90%, but had no effect on Cdkn1b transcription. The promoter of the Lockd gene contains a DNase hypersensitive site, binds numerous transcription factors (TFs), and physically associates with the Cdkn1b promoter in chromosomal conformation capture (NG Capture-C) studies. Thus, the Lockd gene positively regulates Cdkn1b transcription through an enhancer-like cis element, while the lncRNA itself is dispensable. These findings demonstrate that the biological activities of a lncRNA cannot be inferred from phenotypes that arise after deleting the corresponding gene. Rather, the model of an inert transcript arising from a functional genomic cis element should be considered while investigating the biology of any lncRNA.

Array data was processed by RMA algorithm.

rs143348853 in vitro DNA pulldown

Project description:Non-coding variants coordinate transcription factor (TF) binding and chromatin mark enrichment changes over regions spanning >100 kb. We named these molecularly coordinated regions “variable chromatin modules” (VCMs), providing a conceptual framework of how regulatory variation might shape complex traits. To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying VCM formation, here, we mechanistically dissect an uncharacterized VCM-modulating non-coding variant that is associated with reduced chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) predisposition and disease progression. This common, germline variant constitutes a 5-bp indel that controls the activity of an AXIN2 gene-linked VCM by creating a MEF2 binding site, which, upon binding, activates a super-enhancer-like regulatory element. This triggers a big change in TF binding activity and chromatin state at an enhancer cluster spanning >150 kb, coinciding with long-range chromatin compaction and AXIN2 up-regulation. Our results support a model in which the indel acts as an AXIN2 VCM-activating TF nucleation event, which modulates CLL pathology.

CRISPR enhancer scan to detect critical elements for the regulation of EVI1 in a translocated enhancer

Project description:To uncover, in an unbiased fashion, which elements of the 18 kb translocated region control EVI1 transcription, we devised a CRISPR/Cas9-based enhancer scanning approach. We considered all possible sgRNA target sites containing a canonical Cas9 PAM site (NGG) on both strands of the minimal 18 kb translocated region. Deep-sequencing libraries were generated by PCR amplification of sgRNA guide strands using primers that tag the product with standard Illumina adapters and a 4 bp sample barcode in a 2 step-PCR protocol.

Genomic locus proteomic screening identifies the NF-kB signaling pathway components NFkB1 and IKBKG as transcriptional regulators of Ripk3 in endothelial cells

Project description:The receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) is a multi-functional protein best known for facilitating cellular necroptosis and inflammation. Recent evidence from our lab indicates that RIPK3 expression must be tightly regulated in endothelial cells to promote angiogenesis and maintain vascular integrity during embryogenesis and to provide protection from postnatal atherosclerosis. RIPK3 activity and stability are regulated by post-translational modifications and caspase-dependent cleavage. However, less is known about the transcriptional regulation of Ripk3. Here we utilized an unbiased CRISPR-based technology called genomic locus proteomics (GLoPro) to screen transcription factors and coregulatory proteins associated with the Ripk3 locus in a murine endothelial cell line. We found that 41 nuclear proteins are specifically enriched at the Ripk3 locus, including the Nuclear Factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB) signaling pathway components NFkB1 and IKBKG. We further verified that NFkB1 and IKBKG directly bind the Ripk3 promoter and prevent TNFa-induced Ripk3 transcription in cultured human primary endothelial cells. Moreover, NFkB1 prevents RIPK3-mediated death of primary endothelial cells. These data provide new insights into NF-kB signaling and Ripk3 transcriptional regulation in endothelial cells.

The long non-coding RNA Paupar regulates the expression of both local and distal genes [CHART-seq]

Project description:Although some long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to regulate gene expression in cis, it remains unclear whether lncRNAs can directly regulate transcription in trans by interacting with chromatin genome-wide independently of their sites of synthesis. Here, we describe the genomically local and more distal functions of Paupar, a vertebrate-conserved and central nervous system-expressed lncRNA transcribed from a locus upstream of the gene encoding the Pax6 transcription factor. Knockdown of Paupar disrupts the normal cell cycle profile of neuroblastoma cells and induces neuronal differentiation. Paupar acts in a transcript-dependent manner both locally, to regulate Pax6, as well as distally by binding and regulating genes on multiple chromosomes, in part through physical association with Pax6 protein. Paupar binding sites are enriched near promoters and can function as transcriptional regulatory elements whose activity is modulated by Paupar transcript levels. Our findings demonstrate that a lncRNA can function in trans at transcriptional regulatory elements distinct from its site of synthesis to control large-scale transcriptional programmes. The genome-wide binding profile of Paupar was determined using Capture Hybridisation Analysis of RNA Targets (CHART)-Seq technique (Simon et al, Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 108: 20497-20502, 2011) in N2A cells. Following the CHART-seq protocol, we used RNase H elution to recover genomic DNA associated with endogenous Paupar transcripts and genomic DNA associated with a control oligonucleotide (corresponding to the E.coli LacZ sequence). We identified Paupar binding sites in comparison both to DNA recovered using the control LacZ oligonucleotide and to an input DNA sample from N2A cells.

p53 activates the long noncoding RNA Pvt1b to inhibit Myc and suppress tumorigenesis

Project description:The tumor suppressor p53 transcriptionally activates target genes to suppress cellular proliferation during stress. p53 has also been implicated in the repression of the proto-oncogene Myc, but the mechanism has remained unclear. Here, we identify Pvt1b, a p53-dependent isoform of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) Pvt1, expressed 50 Kb downstream of Myc, which becomes induced by DNA damage or oncogenic signaling and accumulates near its site of transcription. We show that production of the Pvt1b RNA is necessary and sufficient to suppress Myc transcription in cis without altering the chromatin organization of the locus. Inhibition of Pvt1b increases Myc levels and transcriptional activity and promotes cellular proliferation. Furthermore, Pvt1b loss accelerates tumor growth, but not tumor progression, in an autochthonous mouse model of lung cancer. These findings demonstrate that Pvt1b acts at the intersection of the p53 and Myc transcriptional networks to reinforce the anti-proliferative activities of p53.

A minimal DNA sequence within the ARF promoter represses p16INK4A expression via long-range chromatin interaction [Cut&Run ChiP-seq]

Project description:Loss of function of CDKN2A/B, also known as INK4/ARF [encoding for p16INK4A, p15INK4B, and p14ARF (mouse p19Arf)]), confers susceptibility to cancers, whereas its up-regulation during organismal aging provokes cellular senescence and tissue degenerative disorders. To better understand molecular regulation of the locus, we knocked P2A-mCherry into the C-terminus of p16INK4A, and this construct faithfully recapitulated the endogenous transcription. Using this reporter cell line, we performed a noncoding tiling pooled screening targeting open chromatin regions spanning the approximately 500-kb region in the topological associated domain that includes p16INK4A. In both Cas9- and dCas9-KRAB–mediated screenings, we identified a 42-bp DNA sequence within exon 1β of the ARF gene, as the repressive element controlling p16INK4A expression. Chromatin conformation capture indicated that inactivating this element abolished the physical interaction between p15INK4B and ARF, thereby abolishing p16INK4A repression. This study has revealed a new mechanism of transcriptional regulation of p16INK4A by long-range chromatin interaction.
