Project description:In our work we used high-throughput sequencing methods to get insight in the role of CTCF in ER-mediated gene regulation in luminal breast cancer cells. After assessing genome-wide binding of CTCF, ER, FOXA1 and Lamin B in MCF7 cells treated with estrogen for different time points, we could correlate the interaction to the chromatin with estrogen-induced de novo transcription (from GRO-seq data) and loop formation (from ChIA-PET, Fullwood et al., 2009). We observed that CTCF binding correlates with ER-mediated transcription and its depletion can affect ER-ER loop formation and subsequently gene expression.

Project description:CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is a conserved zinc finger transcription factor involved in chromatin looping. Recent evidence has shown a role for CTCF in ER biology. This experiment maps CTCF binding genome-wide in breast cancer cells and shows that CTCF binding does not change with estrogen or tamoxifen treatment. We find a small but reproducible proportion of CTCF binding events that overlap with both the nuclear receptor estrogen receptor and the forkhead protein FoxA1. These overlapping binding events are likely to be functional as they are biased towards estrogen-regulated genes. In addition, we identify cell-line specific CTCF binding events. These cell-line specific CTCF binding events are more likely to be associated with cell-line specific ER vinding events and are also more likely to be adjacent to genes that are expressed in that particular cell line. These data suggest a positive, pro-transcriptional role for CTCF in ER-mediated gene expression in breast cancer cells.

Project description:Polycomb complexes have traditionally been prescribed roles as transcriptional repressors, though increasing evidence demonstrate they can also activate gene expression. However, the mechanisms underlying positive gene regulation mediated by Polycomb proteins are poorly understood. Here, we show that RING1B, a core component of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1, regulates enhancer-promoter interaction of the bona fide estrogen-activated GREB1 gene. Systematic characterization of RNA:DNA hybrid formation (R-loops), nascent transcription, and RNA Pol II activity upon estrogen administration revealed a key role of RING1B in gene activation by regulating R-loop formation and RNA Pol II elongation. We also found that the estrogen receptor (ER) and RNA are both necessary for full RING1B recruitment to estrogen-activated genes. Notably, RING1B recruitment was mostly unaffected upon RNA Pol II depletion by triptolide. Our findings delineate the functional interplay between RING1B, RNA, and ER to safeguard chromatin architecture perturbations required for estrogen-mediated gene regulation, and highlight the crosstalk between steroid hormones and Polycomb proteins to regulate oncogenic programs.

Project description:This data was generated by ENCODE. If you have questions about the data, contact the submitting laboratory directly (Yijun Ruan mailto:ruanyj@gis.a-star.edu.sg). If you have questions about the Genome Browser track associated with this data, contact ENCODE (mailto:genome@soe.ucsc.edu). This track was produced as part of the ENCODE Project. It shows the locations of protein factor mediated chromatin interactions determined by Chromatin Interaction Analysis with Paired-End Tag (ChIA-PET) data (Fullwood et al., 2010) extracted from five different human cancer cell lines (K562 (chronic myeloid leukemia), HCT116 (colorectal cancer), HeLa-S3 (cervical cancer), MCF-7 (breast cancer), and NB4 (promyelocytic)). A chromatin interaction is defined as the association of two regions of the genome that are far apart in terms of genomic distance, but are spatially proximate to each other in the 3-dimensional cellular nucleus. Additionally, ChIA-PET experiments generate transcription factor binding sites. A binding site is defined as a region of the genome that is highly enriched by specific Chromatin ImmunoPrecipitation (ChIP) against a transcription factor, which indicates that the transcription factor binds specifically to this region. The protein factors displayed in the track include estrogen receptor alpha (ERa), RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), and CCCTC binding factor (CTCF). For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf Chromatin interaction analysis with paired-end tag sequencing (ChIA-PET) is a global de novo high-throughput method for characterizing the 3-dimensional structure of chromatin in the nucleus. In the ChIA-PET protocol, samples were cross-linked and fragmented, then subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation. The DNA fragments that were brought together by the chromatin interactions were then proximity-ligated. During this proximity-ligation step, the half-linkers (created by the fragmentation) containing flanking MmeI sites (type IIS restriction enzymes) were first ligated to the DNA fragments and then ligated to each other to form full linkers. Full linkers bridge either two ends of a self-circularized fragment, or two ends of two different chromatin fragments. The material was then reverse cross-linked, purified and digested with MmeI. MmeI cuts 20 base pairs away from its recognition site. Tag-linker-tag (paired-end tag, PET) constructs were sequenced by ultra-high-throughput methods (Illumina or SOLiD paired-end sequencing). ChIA-PET reads were processed with the ChIA-PET Tool (Li et al., 2010) by the following steps: linker filtering, short reads mapping, PET classification, binding site identification, and interaction cluster identification. The high-confidence binding sites and chromatin interaction clusters were reported. Chromatin interactions identified by ChIA-PET have been validated by 3C, ChIP-3C, 4C and DNA-FISH (Fullwood et al., 2009).

Project description:We report that three-stranded R-loop structures facilitate CTCF binding genome-wide through the formation of G-quadruplex (G4) structures. Genome-wide assays of CTCF and R-loop formation under various treatment conditions reveal that R-loop removal and G4 stabilization can both alter CTCF occupancy, and these changes are associated with alterations in gene expression and chromatin organization.

Project description:The functional importance of gene enhancers in regulated gene expression is well established. In addition to widespread transcription of long non-coding RNA (ncRNA) transcripts in mammalian cells, bidirectional ncRNAs referred to as eRNAs are present on enhancers. However, it has remained unclear whether these eRNAs are functional, or merely a reflection of enhancer activation. Here, we report that 17 ?-estradiol (E2)-bound estrogen receptor alpha (ER?) on enhancers causes a global increase in eRNA transcription on enhancers adjacent to E2 upregulated coding genes. These induced eRNAs, as functional transcripts, appear to exert important roles for the observed ligand-dependent induction of target coding genes, causing an increased strength of specific enhancer:promoter looping initiated by ER? binding. Cohesin, present on many ER?-regulated enhancers even prior to ligand treatment, apparently contributes to E2-dependent gene activation by stabilizing E2/ER?/eRNA-induced enhancer:promoter looping. Our data indicate that eRNAs are likely to exert important functions in many regulated programs of gene transcription. The ChIP-seqs in this study measure the binding landscape of master transcription regulator of estrogen signaling - ER?, together with common histone marks including H3K27ac and H3K4me1 in MCF7 cells. These data serve as the basis to understand the enhancer map and subsequent analysis of eRNA expression using GRO-seq. The GRO-seq measures the trancription of nascent RNAs in the genome. From MCF7 cells treated with veichle or estrodial, we could identify estrogen-regulated eRNAs and subsequently could study their functions.

Project description:We apply ChIA-Drop, a single-molecule ligation-free mapping technique, to visualize loop formation over time. Our results demonstrated a cohesin-centric framework that coordinates with CTCF and RNAPII, respectively. At the loading (NIPBL binding) site, cohesin is highly correlated with transcriptional activities and translocates bi-directionally toward CTCF motif sites, where CTCF likely provides the anchoring point for cohesin to actively reel the chromatin template according to the motif forward orientation. Furthermore, cohesin specifically co-localizes with RNAPII and together mediates multiplex chromatin interactions that involve promoters, enhancers and super-enhancers. Intriguingly, single-molecule mapping data revealed that individual constituents of super-enhancers interact with target genes singularly and in cascade through intermediate regulatory elements, suggesting a probability-based mechanism for transcription regulation.

Project description:Complex genomes show intricate organization in three-dimensional (3D) nuclear space. Current models posit that cohesin extrudes loops to form self-interacting domains delimited by the DNA binding protein CTCF. Here, we describe and quantitatively characterize cohesin-propelled, jet-like chromatin contacts as landmarks of loop extrusion in quiescent mammalian lymphocytes. Experimental observations and polymer simulations indicate that narrow origins of loop extrusion favor jet formation. Unless constrained by CTCF, jets propagate symmetrically for 1-2 Mb, providing an estimate for the range of in vivo loop extrusion. Asymmetric CTCF binding deflects the angle of jet propagation as experimental evidence that cohesin-mediated loop extrusion can switch from bi- to unidirectional and is controlled independently in both directions. These data offer new insights into the physiological behavior of in vivo cohesin-mediated loop extrusion and further our understanding of the principles that underlie genome organization.
