Project description:STAG2, a member of cohesin, is one of the most recurrently mutated genes in human cancer. Here, we investigated STAG2 function in the context of Ewing sarcoma. Using a CRISPR/Cas9 approach, we generated two STAG2 knock-out isogenic clones (A673_SA2m#1 and TC71_SA2m#2) derived from A673 and TC71 STAG2 wild type (WT) Ewing sarcoma cell line. A STAG2 rescue model (A673_SA2r) was generated by correcting the CRISPR mutation in the A673_SA2m#1 model. These STAG1/2 proficient and deficient models were profiled by CTCF HiChIP experiments. STAG2 isogenic models were also profiled by H3K27ac HiChIP experiments. Analyses of HiChIP data allowed to show that STAG2 promotes CTCF-anchored loop extrusion and cis-promoter and -enhancer interactions.

Project description:The cohesin complex shapes chromosomes by DNA loop extrusion, but individual extrusion trajectories were so far unappreciable in vivo. Here, we developed and validated TArgeted Cohesin Loader (TACL), a system enabling the strong activation of anchored loop extrusion from dozens of defined genomic sites in living cells. Studying their individual loop extrusion trajectories revealed that extruding cohesin-STAG2 stops not only at domain boundaries but at all flanking CTCF sites, engaging them in a complex transient looping network that supports intradomain contacts. Cohesin-STAG1 cannot associate with weak CTCF binding sites and fails to similarly support intradomain interactions. NIPBL-MAU2 remains associated with cohesin when stalled at looping CTCF sites, suggesting these factors may also be required for loop stabilization. TACL induces cohesin traffic jams and illegal loops with divergent CTCF sites, demonstrating that stalled cohesin can block extruding cohesin in vivo. Genes exposed to TACL-induced loop extrusion were collectively hindered in transcription and the underlying chromatin altered its accessibility and reduced its H3K27ac marks. Thus, by enabling the study of individual loop extrusion trajectories in vivo, we could assign new functions to players, identify new looping networks and uncover an interplay between loop extrusion, gene transcription and chromatin composition.

Project description:Cohesin folds chromosomes via DNA loop extrusion. Cohesin-mediated chromosome loops regulate transcription by shaping long-range enhancer-promoter interactions, among other mechanisms. Mutations of cohesin subunits and regulators cause human developmental diseases termed cohesinopathy. Vertebrate cohesin consists of SMC1, SMC3, RAD21, and either STAG1 or STAG2. To probe the physiological functions of cohesin, we created conditional knockout (cKO) mice with Stag2 deleted in the nervous system. Stag2 cKO mice exhibit growth retardation, neurological defects, and premature death, in part due to insufficient myelination of nerve fibers. Stag2 cKO oligodendrocytes exhibit delayed maturation and downregulation of myelinationrelated genes. Stag2 loss reduces promoter-anchored loops at downregulated genes in oligodendrocytes. Thus, STAG2-cohesin generates promoter-anchored loops at myelinationpromoting genes to facilitate their transcription. Our study implicates defective myelination as a contributing factor to cohesinopathy and establishes oligodendrocytes as a relevant cell type to explore the mechanisms by which cohesin regulates transcription.
