Project description:Transcription-factor binding to cis-regulatory regions regulates the gene expression program of a cell, but occupancy is often a poor predictor of the gene response. Here, we show that glucocorticoid stimulation led to the reorganization of transcriptional coregulators MED1 and BRD4 within topologically associating domains (TADs), resulting in active or repressive gene environments. Indeed, we observed a bias toward the activation or repression of a TAD when their activities were defined by the number of regions gaining and losing MED1 and BRD4 following dexamethasone (Dex) stimulation. Variations in Dex-responsive genes at the RNA levels were consistent with the redistribution of MED1 and BRD4 at the associated cis-regulatory regions. Interestingly, Dex-responsive genes without the differential recruitment of MED1 and BRD4 or binding by the glucocorticoid receptor were found within TADs, which gained or lost MED1 and BRD4, suggesting a role of the surrounding environment in gene regulation. However, the amplitude of the response of Dex-regulated genes was higher when the differential recruitment of the glucocorticoid receptor and transcriptional coregulators was observed, reaffirming the role of transcription factor-driven gene regulation and attributing a lesser role to the TAD environment. These results support a model where a signal-induced transcription factor induces a regionalized effect throughout the TAD, redefining the notion of direct and indirect effects of transcription factors on target genes.

Project description:KSHV Topologically Associating Domains in Latent Chromatin and Regulation of Reactivation
| PRJNA687220 | ENA
Project description:Eukaryotic genomes are structurally organized via the formation of multiple loops that create gene expression regulatory units called topologically associating domains (TADs). Here we revealed the KSHV TAD structure at 500 base pair resolution and constructed a 3D KSHV genomic structural model. The latent KSHV genome formed very similar TAD structures among three different naturally infected PEL cell lines. When KSHV reactivation was triggered, genomic loops within TADs were dramatically decreased, while contacts extending outside of TAD borders increased, leading to formation of a larger regulatory unit with a shift from repressive to active compartments (B to A). The 3D structural model proposes that the immediate-early promoter region is localized on the periphery of the 3D viral genome, while highly inducible non-coding RNA regions moved toward the inner space of the structure, resembling the coordination of a "bird cage" during reactivation. Finally, inhibition of the initial burst of lytic gene expression by stop codon insertion in the viral transactivator reduced genomic loops, while supplementing K-Rta expression in trans during establishment of latency attenuated the defect. Our studies suggest that the latent 3D genomic structural information is embedded in the lytic gene transcription program.

Project description:Topologically Associating Domain Boundaries are Required for Normal Genome Function
| PRJNA721977 | ENA
Project description:The spatial proximity between regulatory elements and their target genes has a profound affect on gene expression. X Chromosome Inactivation (XCI) is an epigenetic process by which an entire chromosome is rendered, for the most part, transcriptionally silent. A few genes are known to escape XCI and the mechanism for this escape remains unclear. Here, using mouse trophectodermal stem cells, we address whether specific chromosomal interactions facilitate escape from XCI by bringing escape-specific regulatory elements in close proximity to gene promoters. Our results suggest a model where escape from XCI occurs within topologically associated domains. As such, escaping genes and the regulatory sequences required for their escape are likely located within close linear proximity to each other. The datasets provided include those generated from allele-specific 4C-Seq of genes escaping XCI, genes subject to XCI, and non-genic regions of the X chromosome. FASTQ files, text files containing genomic coordiantes, and BED aligmnets are provided. All sequences were mapped relative to mouse genome build mm9.

Project description:Topologically Associated Domains Delineate Susceptibility to Somatic Hypermutation

Project description:Experiments based on chromosome conformation capture have shown that mammalian genomes are partitioned into topologically associating domains (TADs), within which the chromatin fiber preferentially interacts. TADs may provide three-dimensional scaffolds allowing genes to contact their appropriate distal regulatory DNA sequences (e.g., enhancers) and thus to be properly regulated. Understanding the cell-to-cell and temporal variability of the chromatin fiber within TADs, and what determines them, is thus of great importance to better understand transcriptional regulation. We recently described an equilibrium polymer model that can accurately predict cell-to-cell variation of chromosome conformation within single TADs, from chromosome conformation capture-based data. Here we further analyze the conformational and energetic properties of our model. We show that the chromatin fiber within TADs can easily fluctuate between several conformational states, which are hierarchically organized and are not separated by important free energy barriers, and that this is facilitated by the fact that the chromatin fiber within TADs is close to the onset of the coil-globule transition. We further show that in this dynamic state the properties of the chromatin fiber, and its contact probabilities in particular, are determined in a nontrivial manner not only by site-specific interactions between strongly interacting loci along the fiber, but also by nonlocal correlations between pairs of contacts. Finally, we use live-cell experiments to measure the dynamics of the chromatin fiber in mouse embryonic stem cells, in combination with dynamical simulations, and predict that conformational changes within one TAD are likely to occur on timescales that are much shorter than the duration of one cell cycle. This suggests that genes and their regulatory elements may come together and disassociate several times during a cell cycle. These results have important implications for transcriptional regulation as they support the concept of highly dynamic interactions driven by a complex interplay between site-specific interactions and the intrinsic biophysical properties of the chromatin fiber.

Project description:Mammalian genomes are organized into compartments, topologically-associating domains (TADs) and loops to facilitate gene regulation and other chromosomal functions. Compartments are formed by nucleosomal interactions, but how TADs and loops are generated is unknown. It has been proposed that cohesin forms these structures by extruding loops until it encounters CTCF, but direct evidence for this hypothesis is missing. Here we show that cohesin suppresses compartments but is essential for TADs and loops, that CTCF defines their boundaries, and that WAPL and its PDS5 binding partners control the length of chromatin loops. In the absence of WAPL and PDS5 proteins, cohesin passes CTCF sites with increased frequency, forms extended chromatin loops, accumulates in axial chromosomal positions (vermicelli) and condenses chromosomes to an extent normally only seen in mitosis. These results show that cohesin has an essential genome-wide function in mediating long-range chromatin interactions and support the hypothesis that cohesin creates these by loop extrusion, until it is delayed by CTCF in a manner dependent on PDS5 proteins, or until it is released from DNA by WAPL.

Project description:LC-MS data and DIA-NN search files relating to: PU.1 Eviction at Lymphocyte-Specific Chromatin Domains Mediates Glucocorticoid Response in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Abstract: The epigenetic landscape plays a critical role in the onset and evolution of various malignancies, but its therapeutic utility remains underutilized. Glucocorticoids are an essential part of many multi-agent treatment regimens for lymphoid malignancies. However, the emergence of glucocorticoid resistance is a significant barrier to cure, which is in part due to epigenetic alterations, including aberrant chromatin accessibility and hypermethylation at lymphocyte-specific glucocorticoid-response elements (GREs). To gain a deeper understanding of regulatory mechanisms leading to these epigenetic alterations, we conducted a multi-omics study, including chromosome conformation capture sequencing (HiC), to examine changes in the 3D genome structure following the in vivo treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) with glucocorticoid. We found that glucocorticoid treatment led to distinct patterns of topologically associated domains (TADs) in glucocorticoid sensitive compared to resistant PDXs. Furthermore, we show that these TADs were primed by the development-related pioneer transcription factor PU.1, which extensively interacts with the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) exclusively in glucocorticoid-sensitive ALL PDXs. An integrative analysis of rapid immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry of endogenous protein (RIME) and ChIP-seq revealed that PU.1 binding was associated with lymphocyte-specific activation of GREs and GRE-interacting super-enhancers. The PU.1-associated TADs modulated epigenetic marks, and particularly the eviction of PU.1 promoted GR binding and the expression of signature genes, including BIM, ZBTB16 and RASA1, mediating glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis in ALL. These findings were phenocopied using a PU.1 inhibitor DB2313 to restore glucocorticoid sensitivity in ALL. Taken together, this study identified a new epigenetic pathway integrating PU.1 priming and PU.1-GR interaction which ultimately leads to PU.1 eviction in ALL. This pathway provides the first link between the activity of a lineage-specific transcription factor and epigenetic modulators mediating the response to glucocorticoids and thus offers a new avenue to translate fundamental epigenetic research into the clinic.
