Project description:We report m6Am-seq, based on selective in vitro demethylation and RNA immunoprecipitation. m6Am-seq directly distinguishes m6Am and 5’-UTR N6-methyladenosine (m6A).
Project description:Identfification of MEF2A target genes using ChIP-exo in skeletla muscle and primary cardiomyocytes. Identfification of MEF2A target genes using ChIP-exo and RNA-seq in skeletal muscle and primary cardiomyocytes. MEF2 plays a profound role in the regulation of transcription in cardiac and skeletal muscle lineages. To define the overlapping and unique MEF2A genomic targets, we utilized ChIP-exo analysis of cardiomyocytes and skeletal myoblasts. Of the 2783 and 1648 MEF2A binding peaks in skeletal myoblasts and cardiomyocytes, respectively, 294 common binding sites were identified. Genomic targets were compared to differentially expressed genes in RNA-seq analysis of MEF2A depleted myogenic cells. MEF2A target genes were identified in 48 hr DM C2C12 myoblasts cells and primary cardiomyocytes using ChIP-exo. Binding profiles on MEF2A in each cell type were compared. Cross sectional-analysis between ChIP-exo identified targets and RNA-seq analysis of MEF2A deplted myoblasts was also done.
Project description:RNA modifications regulate how RNAs metabolize and function to impact development and diseases. N6,2’-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) is one such modification and despite being abundant, m6Am function remains unclear. Here, we identified cleavage and polyadenylation factor, PCF11 as a m6Am-specific binding protein. Direct quantification of mature versus nascent RNAs revealed that m6Am does not regulate mRNA stability but promotes transcription of nascent RNAs. m6Am caused RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) to be more processive when transcribing m6Am-modified RNAs. Rather than PCF11 regulating m6Am-modified RNA, m6Am sequesters PCF11 away from proximal Pol II, suppressing premature dissociation of elongating Pol II and promoting Pol II full-length transcription of m6Am-modified RNAs. This establishes a mechanism through which an RNA modification regulates transcription.
Project description:Erythroid development and differentiation from multiprogenitor cells to red blood cells requires precise transcriptional regulation. Key erythroid transcription factors, GATA1 and TAL1, co-operate, along with other proteins, to regulate many aspects of this process. How GATA1 and TAL1 are positionally organized with respect to each other and their cognate DNA binding site across the mouse genome remains unclear. We applied high resolution ChIP-exo to GATA1 and TAL1 to study their positional organization across the mouse genome during GATA1-dependent maturation. Two complementary methods, MultiGPS and peak-pairing, were used to determine high confidence binding locations by ChIP-exo. We identified ~10,000 GATA1 and ~15,000 TAL1 locations, which were essentially confirmed by ChIP-seq. Of these, ~4,000 locations were bound by both GATA1 and TAL1. About three-quarters of these were tightly linked (<40 bp away) to a partial E-box located 7-8 bp upstream of a WGATAA motif. Both TAL1 and GATA1 generated distinct characteristic ChIP-exo peaks around WGATAA motifs, that reflect on their positional arrangement within a complex. We show that TAL1 and GATA1 form a precisely organized complex at a compound motif consisting of a TG 7-8 bp upstream of a WGATAA motif across thousands of genomic locations.
