Myc regulates chromatin decompaction and nuclear architecture during B cell activation

ABSTRACT: 50 years ago, Vincent Allfrey and colleagues discovered that lymphocyte activation triggers massive acetylation of chromatin. However, the molecular mechanisms driving epigeneticaccessibility are still unknown. We here show that stimulated lymphocytes decondense chromatin by three differentially regulated steps. First, chromatin is repositioned away from the nuclear periphery in response to global acetylation. Second, histone nanodomainclusters decompact into mononucleosome fibers through a mechanism that requires Mycand continual energy input. Single-molecule imaging shows that this step lowers transcription factor residence time and non-specific collisions during sampling for DNA targets. Third, chromatin interactions shift from long range to predominantly short range, and CTCF-mediated loops and contact domains double in numbers. This architectural change facilitates cognate promoter-enhancer contacts and also requires Myc and continual ATPproduction. Our results thus define the nature and transcriptional impact of chromatin decondensation and reveal an unexpected role for Myc in the establishment of nuclear topology in mammalian cells.

Sustained activation of AMPK enhances differentiation of human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes via sirtuin activation

Project description:Lee and colleagues demonstrate that sustained activation of AMPK enhances differentiation of iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes. Sustained AMPK activation decreased histone acetylation at known target sites for nuclear-localized sirtuins, suggesting that AMPK activation enhances sirtuin activity. AMPK-induced sirtuin-mediated deacetylation of histone proteins may regulate chromatin accessibility and enhance cardiomyocyte differentiation.

Downregulation of Myc is essential for terminal erythroid maturation

Project description:Terminal differentiation of mammalian erythroid progenitors involves 4-5 cell divisions and induction of many erythroid important genes, followed by chromatin and nuclear condensation and enucleation. The protein levels of c-myc (Myc) are reduced dramatically during late stage erythroid maturation, coinciding with cell cycle arrest in G1-phase and enucleation, suggesting possible roles for c-myc in either or both of these processes. Here we demonstrate that ectopic Myc expression affects terminal erythroid maturation in a dose-dependent manner. Expression of Myc at physiological levels did not affect erythroid differentiation or cell cycle shutdown, but specifically blocked erythroid nuclear condensation and enucleation. Myc prevented deacetylation of several lysine residues in histones H3 and H4 that are normally deacetylated during erythroid maturation. When over-expressed at levels higher than the physiological range, Myc blocked erythroid differentiation and the cells continued to proliferate in cytokine-free, serum-containing culture medium with an early erythroblast morphology. These studies reveal an important dose-dependent function of Myc in regulating terminal maturation in mammalian erythroid cells. Our findings further support the emerging notion that Myc regulates chromatin structure by regulating global histone acetylation states. Five groups with three biological replicates in each.

Memory CD8+ T cells require stress-levels of acetate for optimal function

Project description:How systemic metabolic alterations during acute infections impact immune-cell function remains poorly understood. Hess and colleagues demonstrate that acetate rapidly increases during infections, which drives acetylation of GAPDH in memory CD8+ T cells and thereby catalyzes the rapid recall response.

Long-range enhancer activity determines Myc sensitivity to Notch inhibitors in T cell leukemia

Project description:Notch is needed for T cell development and is a common oncogenic driver in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Myc is a critical target of Notch in normal and malignant pre-T cells, but how Notch regulates Myc is unknown. Here, we identify a distal enhancer located >1 Mb 3' of human and murine Myc that binds Notch transcription complexes and physically interacts with the Myc proximal promoter. The Notch1 binding element in this region activates reporter genes in a Notch-dependent, cell context-specific fashion that requires a conserved Notch complex binding site. Acute changes in Notch activation produce rapid changes in H3K27 acetylation across the entire enhancer (a region spanning >600 kb) that correlate with Myc expression. This broad Notch-influenced region is comprised of an enhancer region containing multiple domains, recognizable as discrete H3K27 acetylation peaks. Leukemia cells selected for resistance to Notch inhibitors express Myc despite epigenetic silencing of enhancer domains near the Notch transcription complex binding sites. Notch-independent expression of Myc in resistant cells is highly sensitive to inhibitors of Brd4, a change in drug sensitivity that is accompanied by preferential association of the Myc promoter with more 3’ enhancer domains that are strongly dependent on Brd4 for function. These findings indicate that altered long-range enhancer activity can mediate resistance to targeted therapies and provide a mechanistic rationale for combined targeting of Notch and Brd4 in leukemia.

Gene expression profile of human leukemic cell line treated with TLR1/2 agonist.

Project description:Treatment of MV4;11 cells with CU-T12-9 increased ubiquitination of c-Myc compared to control and correspondingly resulted in reduced K148 acetylation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to high-throughput sequencing (Chip-Seq) revealed a significant loss of c-Myc occupancy in the genome following TLR1/2 activation with CU-T12-9. As expected, diminished c-Myc binding resulted in gene downregulation of well-establish c-Myc targets. These findings suggest that TLR-mediated K63-linked ubiquitination of c-Myc at K148 inhibits activation of c-Myc by interfering with its acetylation at the same residue.

Elucidation of differential TF binding and epigenome in response to MYCi975.

Project description:We report the differential ChIP-, RNA- and ATAC-seq results in cultrered cells following MYCi975 treatment. From chromatin immunopercipitated DNA of MYCi975 treated cells we determine MYCi975 selectively alters MYC chromatin binding and target gene expression. In addition, largescale epigenomic changes in MYCi975 treated cells inform of MYC regulated TFs with alterations in expression, chromatin binding and histone H3K27 acetylation.

An H4K16 histone acetyltransferase mediates decondensation of the X chromosome in C. elegans males

Project description:In C. elegans, in order to equalize gene expression between the sexes and balance X and autosomal expression, two steps are believed to be required. First, an unknown mechanism is hypothesized to upregulate the X chromosome in both sexes. This mechanism balances the X to autosomal expression in males, but creates X overexpression in hermaphrodites. Therefore, to restore the balance, hermaphrodites downregulate gene expression twofold on both X chromosomes. While many studies have focused on X chromosome downregulation, the mechanism of X upregulation is not known. To gain more insight into X upregulation, we studied the effects of chromatin condensation and histone acetylation on gene expression levels in male C. elegans. We have found that the H4K16 histone acetyltransferase MYS-1/Tip60 mediates dramatic decondensation of the male X chromosome as measured by FISH. However, RNA-seq analysis revealed that MYS-1 contributes only slightly to upregulation of gene expression on the X chromosome. These results suggest that the level of chromosome decondensation does not necessarily correlate with the degree of gene expression change in vivo. Furthermore, the X chromosome is more sensitive to MYS-1-mediated decondensation than the autosomes, despite similar levels of H4K16ac on all chromosomes, as measured by ChIP-seq. H4K16ac levels weakly correlate with gene expression levels on both the X and the autosomes, but highly expressed genes on the X chromosome do not contain exceptionally high levels of H4K16ac.These results indicate that H4K16ac and chromosome decondensation influence regulation of the male X chromosome; however, they do not fully account for the high levels of gene expression observed on the X chromosomes.

MYC overexpression leads to increased chromatin interactions at superenhancers and MYC binding sites

Project description:The MYC oncogene encodes for the MYC protein and is frequently dysregulated across multiple cancer cell types, making it an attractive target for cancer therapy. MYC overexpression leads to MYC binding at active enhancers, resulting in a global transcriptional amplification of active genes. Since superenhancers are frequently dysregulated in cancer, we hypothesized that MYC preferentially invades into superenhancers and alters the cancer genome organization. To that end, we performed ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, 4C-seq and SIQHiC (Spike-in Quantitative Hi-C) on the U2OS osteosarcoma cell line with tetracycline-inducible MYC. MYC overexpression in U2OS cells modulated histone acetylation and increased MYC binding at superenhancers. SIQHiC analysis revealed increased global chromatin contact frequency, particularly at chromatin interactions connecting MYC binding sites at promoters and enhancers. Immunofluorescence staining showed that MYC molecules formed punctate foci at these transcriptionally active domains after MYC overexpression. These results demonstrate the accumulation of overexpressed MYC at promoter-enhancer hubs and suggest that MYC invades into enhancers through spatial proximity. At the same time, the increased protein-protein interactions may strengthen these chromatin interactions to increase chromatin contact frequency. CTCF siRNA knockdown in MYC overexpressed U2OS cells demonstrated that removal of architectural proteins can disperse MYC and abrogate the increase in chromatin contacts. By elucidating the chromatin landscape of MYC driven cancers, we can potentially target MYC associated chromatin interactions for cancer therapy.
