Genome-wide characterization of histone mark co-occurrence at single molecule resolution


ABSTRACT: Histone modifications play an important role in chromatin organization and transcriptional regulation. Specific combinations of these modifications to the histone tails have been associated with different functional genomic elements: for example, promoters, enhancers and insulators. Despite the enormous amount of genome-wide histone modification data collected in different cells and tissues, little is known about co-occurrence of modifications on the same nucleosome. Here we present a novel, genome-wide quantitative method for combinatorial indexed chromatin immunoprecipitation (Co-ChIP) to characterize the co-occurrence of histone modifications. Using Co-ChIP, we characterize the genome-wide co-occurrence of 15 chromatin marks (70 pairwise combinations), and find unexpected dynamics between the different marks, including co-occurrence of H3K9me1-H3K27ac in super-enhancers. Finally, we apply Co-ChIP to characterize the distribution of the bivalent H3K4me3-H3K27me3 domain in distinct mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) states as well as in four adult tissues. We observe dynamic changes in 5786 regions and discover both loss and de novo gain of bivalency in key tissue-specific regulatory genes, suggesting a crucial role for bivalent domains following development. Taken together, we demonstrate that Co-ChIP enables routine single molecule characterization of histone mark co-occurrence and probes the previously hidden dynamic interactions of histone modifications.
