Project description:Cohesin extrudes genomic DNA into loops that promote chromatin assembly, gene regulation and recombination. Loop extrusion depends on large-scale conformational changes in cohesin, but how these translocate DNA is poorly understood. Here we provide evidence that cohesin negatively supercoils DNA loops during extrusion. Supercoiling requires engagement of cohesin’s ATPase heads, DNA clamping by these heads, and a DNA binding site on cohesin’s hinge, indicating that cohesin twists DNA when constraining it between the hinge and the clamp. A cohesin mutant defective in negative supercoiling forms shorter loops in cells, and a similar, although weaker, phenotype is observed after depletion of topoisomerase I. These results suggest that supercoiling is an integral part of the loop extrusion mechanism and that relaxation of supercoiled DNA is required for cohesin-mediated loop extrusion and genome architecture.

Project description:Most animal genomes are partitioned into Topologically Associating Domains (TADs), created by cohesin-mediated loop extrusion and defined by convergently oriented CTCF sites. The dynamics of loop extrusion and its regulation remains poorly characterized in vivo. Here, we tracked TAD anchors in living human cells to visualize and quantify cohesin-dependent loop extrusion across multiple endogenous genomic regions. We show that TADs are dynamic structures whose anchors are brought in proximity about once per hour and for 6-19 min (~16% of the time). TADs are continuously subjected to extrusion by multiple cohesin complexes, extruding loops at ~0.1 kb/s. Remarkably, despite strong differences of Hi-C patterns between the chromatin regions, their dynamics is consistent with the same density, residence time and speed of cohesin. Our results suggest that TAD dynamics is governed primarily by CTCF site location and affinity, which allows genome-wide predictive models of cohesin-dependent 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.
