Transcription profiling of mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells expressing tagged versions of BCL11A

ABSTRACT: Differences in the amount of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) that persists into adulthood affect the severity of sickle cell disease and the beta-thalassemia syndromes. Genetic association studies have identified sequence variants in the gene BCL11A that influence HbF levels. Here we examine BCL11A as a potential regulator of HbF expression. The high HbF BCL11A genotype is associated with reduced BCL11A expression. Moreover, abundant expression of full-length forms of BCL11A is developmentally restricted to adult erythroid cells. Down-regulation of BCL11A expression in primary adult erythroid cells leads to robust HbF expression. Consistent with a direct role of BCL11A in globin gene regulation, we find that BCL11A occupies several discrete sites in the beta-globin gene cluster. BCL11A emerges as a therapeutic target for reactivation of HbF in beta-hemoglobin disorders. Expression clone label: FBB (4 different subclones, with 2 arrays each), Control label: MelBirA Experiment Overall Design: Microarray expression analysis from parental control mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells containing the BirA enzyme (MelBirA cells) and cells containing tagged versions (FLAG-Biotag) of BCL11A. Two control datasets and eight datasets from four subclones containing tagged BCL11A are included.

Epigenetic inactivation of ERF reactivates γ-globin expression in β-thalassemia [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The fetal-to-adult hemoglobin switch is regulated in a developmental stage-specific manner and reactivation of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) has therapeutic potential for β-hemoglobinopathies. Although BCL11A and ZBTB7A interact with their coregulators, reportedly mediating most γ-globin transcriptional silencing in erythroid in trans, and in cis, the molecular mechanism underlying the epigenetic dysregulation of the switch remains largely unclear. Here we showed that epigenetic inactivation of an ETS2 repressor factor (ERF) reactivates γ-globin expression during stress erythropoiesis, and ERF depletion elevates γ-globin in erythroid cells and in erythroid progenies from the edited HSPCs engrafted into immunodeficient mice. ERF represses γ-globin by directly binding to two motifs regulating HBG expression, independently of the major HbF repressors BCL11A and ZBTB7A. We further uncovered that an lncRNA, RP11-196G18.23 mediates ERF promoter hypermethylation resulting in reactivation of g-globin. Herein, the epigenetic alterations were identified as novel modulators ameliorating the severity of b-thalassemia, thus providing novel therapeutic targets for β-hemoglobinopathies.

Direct Promoter Repression by BCL11A Controls the Fetal to Adult Hemoglobin Switch

Project description:Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) level is genetically controlled and modifies severity of adult hemoglobin (HbA) disorders. Common genetic variation affects expression of BCL11A, a critical regulator of HbF silencing. Current models suggest that BCL11A acts at a distance from the gamma-globin genes via long-distance chromosomal interactions. Here we use a functional cellular assay and protein-binding microarray to establish a requirement for a zinc-finger cluster of BCL11A for globin repression, and identify a preferred DNA recognition sequence (TGACCA). The motif is present in embryonic and fetal-expressed globin promoters, and duplicated in gamma-globin promoters, yet only the distal motif is mutated in alleles of individuals with hereditary persistence of hemoglobin. Using CUT&RUN to map protein binding sites, we detected BCL11A occupancy preferentially at the distal motif, and validated its absence in HbF-expressing, promoter-edited erythroid cells. Taken together, our findings reveal that direct gamma-globin gene promoter repression by BCL11A underlies hemoglobin switching.

The LRF/ZBTB7A transcription factor is a BCL11A-independent repressor of fetal hemoglobin

Project description:Hemoglobinopathies, including sickle cell disease and _-thalassemia, are global public health concerns. Induction of fetal-type hemoglobin (HbF) is a promising means to treat these disorders; however, precisely how HbF expression is silenced in adult erythroid cells is not fully understood. Here, we show that the LRF/ZBTB7A transcription factor is a potent repressor of HbF production. LRF inactivation derepresses embryonic/fetal _-globin expression in mouse and human adult erythroid cells. We employed genome-wide analysis of the transcriptome, chromatin accessibility and LRF occupancy sites, and demonstrate that LRF occupies the _-globin loci and maintains nucleosome density necessary for _-globin silencing. LRF confers its repressive activity through a unique NuRD repressor complex independent of BCL11A. Strikingly, human erythroid lines lacking both LRF and BCL11A exhibited almost a complete switch in expression from adult- to fetal-type globin, suggesting that these two factors cumulatively represent the near entirety of _-globin repressive activity in adult erythroid cells. RNA-seq, LRF ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq assays were used to investigtae LRF binding, effect of LRF depletion on transcription and chromatin landscape in mouse and human cells.

KLF1 directly activates expression of the novel fetal globin repressor, ZBTB7A/LRF, in erythroid cells

Project description:Genes encoding the human β-like hemoglobin proteins undergo a developmental switch from fetal γ-globin to adult β-globin expression at around the time of birth. β-hemoglobinopathies, such as sickle cell disease and β-thalassemia, result from mutations affecting the adult β-globin gene. The only treatment options currently available carry significant side-effects. Analyses of heritable variations in fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels have provided evidence that reactivation of the silenced fetal γ-globin genes in adult erythroid cells is a promising therapy. The γ-globin repressor BCL11A has become the major focus with several studies investigating its regulation and function as a first step to inhibiting its expression or activity. However, a second repression mechanism has recently been shown to be mediated by the transcription factor ZBTB7A/LRF, suggesting that understanding the regulation of ZBTB7A may also be useful. Here we show that KLF1 directly drives expression of ZBTB7A in erythroid cells by binding to its proximal promoter. We have also uncovered an erythroid-specific regulation mechanism, leading to the upregulation of a novel ZBTB7A transcript in the erythroid compartment. The demonstration that ZBTB7A, like BCL11A, is a KLF1 target gene also fits with the observation that reduced KLF1 expression or activity is associated with HbF derepression.

Potent and uniform fetal hemoglobin induction via base editing [Cut & Run]

Project description:Genetic manipulations to increase fetal hemoglobin (HbF, α2γ2) in postnatal red blood cells (RBCs) can alleviate β-thalassemia and sickle cell disease. We compared five strategies in CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, using either Cas9 nuclease, which creates uncontrolled indel mixtures, or adenine base editors (ABE), which generate more precise nucleotide changes. The most potent modification was ABE generation of γ-globin (HBG1/HBG2) −175 A>G, which creates a promoter binding motif for the transcriptional activator TAL1. In erythroid colonies with >87.5% on-target edits, those with −175 A>G expressed 81 ± 7% HbF, versus 17 ± 11% in unedited controls. In comparison, HbF levels were lower and more variable in erythroid cells modified with either of two Cas9 nuclease strategies with similar editing efficiencies, being 32 ± 19% when a BCL11A repressor binding motif in the γ-globin promoter was targeted and 52 ± 13% when the +58 BCL11A erythroid enhancer was targeted. Contrary to currently accepted models of γ-globin regulation, HbF levels varied significantly with different Cas9 indels that disrupted the γ-globin promoter BCL11A binding motif. The −175 A>G base edit also induced HbF more potently than did the Cas9 nuclease approaches in RBCs generated after transplantation of modified normal or SCD patient CD34+ cells into mice. Our data suggest a strategy for potent, uniform induction of HbF and provide insights into γ-globin gene regulation. More generally, we demonstrate that diverse indels generated by Cas9 nuclease can cause unexpected variations in biological outcomes that can be circumvented by base editing, with important implications for therapeutic gene editing efforts.
