Project description:The majority of the eukaryotic genome is transcribed into non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which are important regulators of different biological processes in the cell nucleus as part of the machinery controlling chromatin structure. However, the full extent of ncRNAs function has remained elusive. Here we deciphered the function of the microRNA Mirlet7d as a key regulator of the expression of bi-directionally transcribed genes. We found that nuclear Mirlet7d binds ncRNAs expressed from these genes. The Mirlet7d-ncRNA duplexes are further bound by C1D, which in turn targets the RNA exosome complex and EZH2 to the bi-directionally active loci. The exosome degrades the ncRNAs, whereas EZH2 induces heterochromatin and transcriptional silencing. Moreover, this multicomponent RNA-protein complex, which we called MiCEE, tethers the regulated genes to the perinucleolar region, thereby being required for proper nucleolus organization. Our study demonstrates that the MiCEE complex mediates epigenetic silencing of bi-directionally expressed genes and global genome organization.

Project description:Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) mediates class switching by binding to a small fraction of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) to diversify the antibody repertoire. The precise mechanism for highly selective AID targeting in the genome has remained elusive. Here, we report an RNA-binding protein, ROD1 (also known as PTBP3), that is both required and sufficient to define AID-binding sites genome-wide in activated B cells. ROD1 interacts with AID via an ultraconserved loop, which proves to be critical for the recruitment of AID to ssDNA using bi-directionally transcribed nascent RNAs as stepping stones. Strikingly, AID-specific mutations identified in human patients with hyper-IgM syndrome type 2 (HIGM2) completely disrupt the AID interacting surface with ROD1, thereby abolishing the recruitment of AID to immunoglobulin (Ig) loci. Together, our results suggest that bi-directionally transcribed RNA traps the RNA binding protein ROD1, which serves as a guiding system for AID to load onto specific genomic loci to induce DNA rearrangement during immune responses.

Project description:Genome organization is driven by forces affecting transcriptional state, but the relationship between transcription and genome architecture remains unclear. Here, we identified the Drosophila transcription factor Motif 1 Binding Protein (M1BP) in physical association with the gypsy chromatin insulator core complex, including the universal insulator protein CP190. M1BP is required for enhancer-blocking and barrier activities of the gypsy insulator as well as its proper nuclear localization. Genome-wide, M1BP specifically colocalizes with CP190 at Motif 1-containing promoters, which are enriched at topologically associating domain (TAD) borders. M1BP facilitates CP190 chromatin binding at many shared sites and vice versa. Both factors promote Motif 1-dependent gene expression and transcription near TAD borders genome-wide. Finally, loss of M1BP reduces chromatin accessibility and increases both inter- and intra-TAD local genome compaction. Our results reveal physical and functional interaction between CP190 and M1BP to activate transcription at TAD borders and mediate chromatin insulator-dependent genome organization.

Project description:Chromosomal translocations play pivotal roles in various physiological and pathological processes, such as immunoglobulin production and tumor progression; however, the infrequency of chromosomal translocation events has impeded the exploration of the underlying mechanisms. To tackle this challenge, we devised a strategy to report and enrich cells with translocations in vitro, in conjunction with a novel method termed High Multiplex Translocation Sequencing (HMTS), to capture genome-wide translocations from multiple bait regions simultaneously. Analysis of HMTS data unveiled a preference for translocations to occur at Topologically Associating Domain (TAD) boundaries, and experimental disruption of the TAD boundary indeed led to a reduction in translocation frequency, exemplified by translocations involving ERG. Knockdown of Cohesin or condensin II was observed distinct roles in translocations. Cohesin deficiency promoted long-distance translocations, while condensin II deficiency promoted short distance translocation, inside TAD, and decreased intra-chromatin long-distance translocation, particularly at TAD boundaries. For inter-chromatin, although condensin II deficiency also decreased the translocation at TAD boundaries, and highly transcription regions while paradoxically slightly increased inter-chromatin translocation ratio, suggesting that condensin II physiologically mediated inter-chromatin interaction at TAD boundary regions but simultaneously restricted interaction from other regions, such as centromere. Our new translocation sequencing method revealed the versatile role of condensin II in controlling intra-chromatin short-distance, long-distance, and inter-chromosome translocations.

Project description:Recent advances enabled by Hi-C technique have unraveled principles of chromosomal folding, which were since linked to many genomic processes. In particular, Hi-C revealed that chromosomes of animals are organized into Topologically Associating Domains (TADs), evolutionary conserved compact chromatin domains that influence gene expression. However, mechanisms that underlie partitioning of the genome into TADs remain poorly understood. To explore principals of TAD folding in Drosophila melanogaster, we performed Hi-C and PolyA+ RNA-seq in four cell lines of various origins (S2, Kc167, DmBG3-c2, and OSC). Contrary to previous studies, we find that regions between TADs (i.e. the inter-TADs and TAD boundaries) in Drosophila are only weakly enriched with the insulator protein dCTCF, while another insulator protein Su(Hw) is preferentially present within TADs. However, Drosophila inter-TADs harbor active chromatin and constitutively transcribed (housekeeping) genes. Accordingly, we find that binding of insulator proteins dCTCF and Su(Hw) predict TAD boundaries much worse than the active chromatin marks (in the minimal case, H3K4me3 and total RNA) do. Moreover, inter-TADs correspond to decompacted interbands of polytene chromosomes, whereas TADs mostly correspond to densely packed bands. Collectively, our results suggest that TADs are condensed chromatin domains depleted in active chromatin marks, separated by regions of active chromatin that cannot be organized into compact structures, possibly due to high levels of histone acetylation. Finally, we test this hypothesis by polymer simulations, and find that TAD partitioning can be explained by different modes of inter-nucleosomal interactions for active and inactive chromatin.

Project description:Cohesin complex shapes 3D genome organization by extruding DNA loops, yet the mechanisms underlying its chromatin entry remain poorly understood. Here, we reveal that the cohesin loader NIPBL exhibits highly tissue-specific chromatin binding, in stark contrast to the conserved binding profiles of CTCF and RAD21. We identify pioneer transcription factors (TFs), notably FOXA1, as key mediators of NIPBL recruitment to chromatin. FOXA1 directs NIPBL to intra-TAD regions, enabling symmetric loop extrusion, while factors like ETS1 target NIPBL to TAD boundaries, supporting one-sided extrusion. Rapid depletion of FOXA1 disrupts NIPBL binding and intra-TAD loops, whereas loss of NIPBL impairs both intra-TAD and inter-TAD interactions, highlighting their roles in 3D genome folding. Strikingly, a recurrent FOXA1 mutation (R219S) in prostate cancer redirects NIPBL to TAD boundaries by recognizing a non-canonical motif, fostering a more insulated and tumor-aggressive genome. Evolutionary analysis points to a potential conserved role for TF-NIPBL cooperation in cohesin chromatin entry across species with tissue-specific adaptations. Our findings reveal that pioneer factors orchestrate cohesin loading to shape tissue-specific chromatin accessibility and 3D genome dynamics, a mechanism hijacked in diseases like cancer to rewire gene expression.
