Project description:Chromatin accessibility is an important functional genomics phenotype that influences transcription factor binding and gene expression. Genome-scale technologies allow chromatin accessibility to be mapped with high-resolution, facilitating detailed analyses into the genetic architecture and evolution of chromatin structure within and between species. We performed Formaldehyde-Assisted Isolation of Regulatory Elements sequencing (FAIRE-Seq) to map chromatin accessibility in two parental haploid yeast species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces paradoxus and their diploid hybrid. We show that although broad-scale characteristics of the chromatin landscape are well conserved between these species, accessibility is significantly different for 947 regions upstream of genes that are enriched for GO terms such as intracellular transport and protein localization exhibit. We also develop new statistical methods to investigate the genetic architecture of variation in chromatin accessibility between species, and find that cis effects are more common and of greater magnitude than trans effects. Interestingly, we find that cis and trans effects at individual genes are often negatively correlated, suggesting widespread compensatory evolution to stabilize levels of chromatin accessibility. Finally, we demonstrate that the relationship between chromatin accessibility and gene expression levels is complex, and a significant proportion of differences in chromatin accessibility might be functionally benign. There are 20 samples in total. These consist of 10 FAIRE-seq samples, specifically 6 haploid samples, S. cerevisiae strain UWOPS05_217_3 replicates 1 and 2, S. cerevisiae strain DBVPG1373 replicates 1 and 2, and S. paradoxus strain CBS432 replicates 1 and 2. There are also 4 diploid hybrid samples, hybrid between S. cerevisiae strain UWOPS05_217_3 and S. paradoxus strain CBS432 replicates 1 and 2, and the hybrid between S. cerevisiae strain DBVPG1373 and S. paradoxus strain CBS432 replicates 1 and 2. There are also RNA-seq samples for each of these 10 samples.

Project description:DNA methylation is one of the most widely distributed epigenetic marks that has a profound impact on developmental regulation, yet its influence on chromatin accessibility and 3D genome architecture is not well explored in plants. Here, we present genome-wide chromatin accessibility profiles of 18 Arabidopsis mutants that are deficient in CG, CHG or CHH DNA methylation. We find that chromatin inaccessibility at heterochromatin regions are maintained by DNA methylation in all three contexts. Many regions maintain their chromatin inaccessibility when DNA methylation is lost in only one or two contexts but we found the most increase in accessibility at sites that shown DNA methylation reduction in all contexts, suggesting an interplay between CG and non-CG methylation and chromatin accessibility. In addition, we observed that an increase in chromatin accessibility is accompanied with chromatin decompaction of many transposable elements, which leads to heterochromatin decompaction and an enhancement of long-range chromosomal interactions in the 3D genome architecture. Together, these results provide a valuable resource for chromatin compaction analyses and uncover a pivotal role for DNA methylation in the maintenance of heterochromatin inaccessibility in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Here we integrated multi-omics profiles including transcriptomics, DNA accessibility and capture Hi-C data to explore how p63 shapes local chromatin architecture in skin keratinocytes isolated from EEC syndrome patients. Surprisingly, we observed decreased chromatin accessibility in a number of DNA looping nodes which were co-mediated by p63 and CTCF. Our findings not only identified a new aspect of the bookmark function of p63, but also shed light on the disease mechanism underlined p63 dysfunction. Therefore, we propose p63 as a spatial genome organizer by modulating a subset of DNA loops with CTCF and therefore fine-tuning transcription programs required for skin keratinocytes.

Project description:Genomic DNA folds into complex configurations that produce particular local and globalstructures thought to profoundly impact genome function. To understand the dynamic nature ofthis relationship, we investigated the extent of host chromatin structural and functional changesin response to a viral agent. We performed comprehensive assessments of host architecture (Hi-C), accessibility (ATAC-seq), and gene expression (RNA-seq) in a paired manner in response toattenuated vaccinia (smallpox) virus. Over time, infection significantly increased long-rangeintra-chromosomal interactions and decreased chromatin accessibility. Fine-scale accessibilitychanges were independent of broad-scale chromatin compartment exchange, which increased (upto 12% of the genome) over time, underscoring potential independent mechanisms for global andlocal chromatin reorganization. The majority of differentially expressed genes, including thosedownregulated in immune responses, had concurrent alterations in local accessibility and loopdomain restructuring. Increased B compartmentalization, intra-chromosomal interactions, anddecreased inter-chromosomal interactions and chromatin accessibility together indicate thatinfection converts the host genome into a more condensed state with nearly equal bidirectionaldifferential gene expression. These changes in host chromatin features may have implications fordeveloping efficacious anti-viral countermeasures. Overall, our empirical data provides evidenceof orchestrated concurrent alterations in chromatin architecture, accessibility, and geneexpression in response to infection, further reinforcing the notion of coordinated structurefunctiondynamics of the genome.
