Genomic rewiring of Sox2 chromatin interaction network during differentiation of ESCs to postmitotic neurons

ABSTRACT: Cellular differentiation requires cells to undergo dramatic but strictly controlled changes in chromatin organization, transcriptional regulation, and protein production and interaction. To understand the regulatory connections between these processes, we applied a multi-omics approach integrating proteomic, transcriptomic, chromatin accessibility, protein occupancy, and protein-chromatin interaction data acquired during differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into post-mitotic neurons. We found extensive remodeling of the chromatin that was preceding changes on RNA and protein levels. We found the pluripotency factor Sox2 as regulator of neuron-specific genes and, as a potential mechanism, revealed its genomic redistribution from pluripotency enhancers to neuronal promoters and concomitant change of its protein interaction network upon differentiation. We identified Atrx as a major Sox2 partner in neurons, whose co-localisation correlated with an increase in active enhancer marks and increased expression of nearby genes, and where deletion of a Sox2-Atrx co-bound site resulted in reduced expression of the proximal gene. Collectively, these findings provide key insights into the regulatory transformation of Sox2 during neuronal differentiation and highlight the significance of multi-omic approaches in understanding gene regulation in complex systems.

ATRX-mediated chromatin association of histone variant macroH2A1 regulates alpha globin gene expression

Project description:The histone variant macroH2A generally associates with transcriptionally inert chromatin, however the factors that regulate its chromatin incorporation remain elusive. Here, we identify the SWI/SNF helicase, ATRX, as a novel macroH2A interacting protein. Unlike its role in assisting H3.3 chromatin deposition, ATRX acts as a negative regulator of macroH2A’s chromatin association. In human erythroleukemic cells deficient for ATRX, ChIP-sequencing studies reveal that macroH2A accumulates at the HBA gene cluster on the subtelomere of chromosome 16, coinciding with the loss of α globin expression. Collectively, our results implicate deregulation of macroH2A’s distribution as a contributing factor to the α thalassemia phenotype of ATRX syndrome. Mononucleosomes from K562 cells bearing integrated lentiviral shRNA constructs targeting either luciferase (shluc) or ATRX (sh92) were isolated and ChIP'd with mH2A1 antibody. DNA from shluc Input and the two mH2A1 ChIPs were isolated and sequenced on Illumina's Hiseq.

A SNF2 protein targets variable copy number repeats and thereby influences allele-specific expression

Project description:ATRX is an X-linked gene of the SWI/SNF family whose role in vivo is currently unknown. Mutations in ATRX cause syndromal mental retardation. ATRX binds to tandem repeat (TR) sequences both in heterochromatin (e.g. telomeres) and euchromatin. Genes associated with these TRs can be dysregulated when ATRX is mutated and the degree to which their expression changes is determined by the size of the TR, producing skewed allelic expression. This explains the nature of the affected genes, the variable phenotypes seen with identical ATRX mutations and also illustrates a new mechanism underlying variable penetrance. Many of the TRs in ATRX targets are G-rich and predicted to form non-B DNA structures (including G quadruplex) in vivo. We have shown that ATRX binds G quadruplex structures in vitro suggesting a mechanism by which ATRX may play a role in various nuclear processes and how this is perturbed when ATRX is mutated. 4 Human Erythroblast, 1 HEP3B and 1 Fibroblast ChIP-ChIP Sample For ChIP-Seq: one human erythroblasts, one mouse ES, one human erythroblast reference Sample, and one mouse ES input reference Sample.

The chromatin remodeler ATRX binds to atypical chromatin domains at the 3â exons of ZNF genes to preserve H3K9me3 enrichment

Project description:Here, we report that ATRX co-localizes with the H3K9-methyl transferase SETDB1 (also known as ESET), the co-repressor TRIM28 (also known as KAP1), and the transcription factor ZNF274 at 3â exons of Zinc Finger Genes (ZNFs) containing an atypical H3K9me3/H3K36me3 chromatin signature. Disruption of ATRX and ZNF274 leads to a significant reduction of H3K9me3, particularly at the 3â ZNF exons and other atypical chromatin regions, higher percentages of DNA damage, and defects in cell cycle. Taken together, our studies suggest that ATRX binds the 3â exons of ZNFs to maintain genomic stability through the regulation of their H3K9me3 levels XL-MNase ChIP-seq of ATRX was performed in the erythroleukemic cell line K562 and the Neuroblastoma cell line LAN6. Two independent replicates using different ATRX antibodies were performed in K562. Additionally, Native ChIP-seq of H3K9me3 in LAN6, ATRX WT and ATRX KO K562 cells was performed. Input samples were sequenced as control.

Sox2-regulatory networks in embryonic and trophoblast stem cells.

Project description:Sox2 is a pleiotropic transcription factor that regulates self-renewal and differentiation capacity in different types of stem cells, raising the possibility that it regulates similar transcriptional programs controlling common stemness. Embryonic stem (ES) cells and trophoblast stem (TS) cells are two developmentally related types of stem cells, which originate from distinct lineages of peri-implantation embryos. We have found that Sox2 is a critical regulator of self-renewal in both of two stem cells. Genome-wide analysis of Sox2 target genes using Affymetrix Exon Arrays and chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) unraveled that it regulates distinct transcriptional networks in ES and TS cells.

Studying the core circuitry of pluripotency by selective isolation of chromatin-associated proteins

Project description:Here we have developed a method to identify chromatin-bound partners of a protein of interest by selective isolation of chromatin-associated proteins (SICAP) followed by mass spectrometry. We applied SICAP to identify chromatin-binding proteins associated to Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells.

ChIP-MS reveals the local chromatin composition by label-free quantitative proteomics

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) has been a cornerstone for epigenetic analyses over the last decades, but even coupled to sequencing approaches (ChIP-seq), it is ultimately limited to one protein at a time. In a complementary effort, we here combined ChIP with label-free quantitative (LFQ) mass spectrometry (ChIP-MS) to interrogate local chromatin compositions. We demonstrate the versality of our approach at telomeres, with transcription factors, in tissue and by dCas9-driven locus-specific enrichment.

ATRX guards against aberrant differentiation in mesenchymal progenitor cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:Alterations in the tumor suppressor ATRX are recurrently observed in several cancer types including sarcomas, which are mesenchymal neoplasms. ATRX has multiple epigenetic functions including heterochromatin formation and maintenance and regulation of transcription through modulation of chromatin accessibility. Here, we show in murine mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) that Atrx deficiency aberrantly activated mesenchymal differentiation programs. This includes adipogenic pathways where ATRX loss induced expression of adipogenic transcription factors (Pparγ and Cebpα) and enhanced adipogenic differentiation in response to differentiation stimuli. These changes are linked to loss of heterochromatin near mesenchymal lineage genes together with increased chromatin accessibility and gains of active chromatin marks at putative enhancer elements and promoters. Finally, we observed depletion of H3K9me3 at transposable elements, which are derepressed including near mesenchymal genes where they could serve as regulatory elements. Our results demonstrate ATRX functions to buffer against differentiation in mesenchymal progenitor cells, which has implications for understanding ATRX loss of function in sarcomas.
