Project description:We report the application of single-molecule-based sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of SNF5 binding in human pluripotent embryonic carcinoma NCCIT and SNF5 overexpressed NCCIT cells. We generated genome-wide cSNF5 maps of NCCIT and SNF5 overexpressed NCCIT cells from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA. SNF5 and OCT4 seem not to share their binding in OCT4 centered binding plot in control, while SNF5 overexpression directs SNF5 to OCT4 target genes.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The transcription factor OCT4 is highly expressed in pluripotent embryonic stem cells which are derived from the inner cell mass of mammalian blastocysts. Pluripotency and self renewal are controlled by a transcription regulatory network governed by the transcription factors OCT4, SOX2 and NANOG. Recent studies on reprogramming somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells highlight OCT4 as a key regulator of pluripotency.
RESULTS: We have carried out an integrated analysis of high-throughput data (ChIP-on-chip and RNAi experiments along with promoter sequence analysis of putative target genes) and identified a core OCT4 regulatory network in human embryonic stem cells consisting of 33 target genes. Enrichment analysis with these target genes revealed that this integrative analysis increases the functional information content by factors of 1.3 - 4.7 compared to the individual studies. In order to identify potential regulatory co-factors of OCT4, we performed a de novo motif analysis. In addition to known validated OCT4 motifs we obtained binding sites similar to motifs recognized by further regulators of pluripotency and development; e.g. the heterodimer of the transcription factors C-MYC and MAX, a prerequisite for C-MYC transcriptional activity that leads to cell growth and proliferation.
CONCLUSION: Our analysis shows how heterogeneous functional information can be integrated in order to reconstruct gene regulatory networks. As a test case we identified a core OCT4-regulated network that is important for the analysis of stem cell characteristics and cellular differentiation. Functional information is largely enriched using different experimental results. The de novo motif discovery identified well-known regulators closely connected to the OCT4 network as well as potential new regulators of pluripotency and differentiation. These results provide the basis for further targeted functional studies.

Project description:H2B mono-ubiquitylation is required for multiple methylations of both H3K4 and H3K79 and has been implicated in gene expression from yeast to human. However, molecular crosstalk between H2BUb1 and other modifications, especially H3K4 and H3K79 methylations, remains unclear in vertebrates. To understand the functional role of H2BUb1, genome-wide histone modification patterns were measured in human cells. This study proposes dual roles of H2BUb1 that are both H3 methylation dependent and independent. First, H2BUb1 is a 5'-enriched active transcription mark and is co-occupied with H3K79 methylations in actively transcribed regions. Importantly, this study found a unique role of H2BUb1 in chromatin architecture independent of histone H3 methylations. H2BUb1 is well positioned in exon-intron boundaries of highly expressed exons and is specifically enriched in 5'-biased exons. Furthermore, H2BUb1 demonstrates increased occupancy in skipped exons compared to flanking exons for the human and mouse genome. Our findings suggest that a potentiating mechanism links H2BUb1 to both H3K79 methylations in actively transcribed regions and the exon-intron structure of highly expressed exons through the regulation of nucleosome dynamics during transcription elongation. We generated high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) data for genome-wide occupancy of H2BUb1, nucleosome, H3K4me3, H3K36me3, H379me1/2/3, H3Ac, and mRNA in human embryonic carcinoma cells. We performed ChIP-seq for seven different histone modifications, MNase-seq, mRNA-seq (two replications), and inputDNA-seq in NCCIT cell lines (human embryonic carcinoma cell lines). We also performed mRNA-seq for RNF20-siRNA transfected NCCIT cells, where H2BUb1 signals decreased.

Project description:Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog cooperate to form the transcriptional regulatory circuitry of embyronic stem cells. To gain insight into the genes regulated by the core circuitry of transcription factors, chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with massive parallel sequencing (ChIP-seq) was performed to determine the genome-wide binding targets of Oct4. DNA was enriched by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and analyzed by Solexa sequencing. ChIP was performed using an antibody against IgG as a background control. ChIP was performed using an antibody against Oct4 in two biological replicates. The first replicate was sequenced twice (technical replicate 1 and technical replicate 2).
