Activity-Induced DNA Breaks Govern the Expression of Neuronal Early-Response Genes

ABSTRACT: Neuronal activity causes the rapid expression of immediate early genes that are crucial for experience driven changes to synapses, learning, and memory. Here, using both molecular and genome-wide next generation sequencing methods, we report that neuronal activity stimulation triggers the formation of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) in the promoters of a subset of early-response genes, including Fos, Npas4, and Egr1. Generation of targeted DNA DSBs within Fos and Npas4 promoters is sufficient to induce their expression even in the absence of an external stimulus. Activity-dependent DSB formation is likely mediated by the type II topoisomerase, Topoisomerase IIb (Topo IIb), and knockdown of Topo IIb attenuates both DSB formation and early response gene expression following neuronal stimulation. Our results suggest that DSB formation is a physiological event that rapidly resolves topological constraints to early-response gene expression in neurons. Generation of sequencing data from ChIP-seq with antibodies against γH2AX and Topo IIβ after neuronal activity stimulation, and RNA-seq after etoposide treatment

Regulation of nucleosome architecture and factor binding revealed by nuclease footprinting of the ESC genome

Project description:Functional interactions between gene regulatory factors and chromatin architecture have been difficult to directly assess. Here, we use micrococcal nuclease (MNase) footprinting to probe the functions of two chromatin remodeling complexes. By simultaneously quantifying alterations in small MNase footprints over the binding sites of 30 regulatory factors in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), we provide evidence that esBAF and Mbd3/NuRD modulate the binding of several regulatory proteins. In addition, we find that nucleosome occupancy is reduced at specific loci in favor of subnucleosomes upon depletion of esBAF, including sites of histone H2A.Z localization. Consistent with these data, we demonstrate that esBAF is required for normal H2A.Z localization in ESCs, suggesting esBAF either stabilizes H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes or promotes subnucleosome to nucleosome conversion by facilitating H2A.Z deposition. Therefore, integrative examination of MNase footprints reveals insights into nucleosome dynamics and functional interactions between chromatin structure and key gene regulatory factors. Examine three read size footprints from MNase-Seq in EGFP KD, Mbd3 KD, and Smarca4 KD mESCs using ChIP-Seq datasets.

Program specificity for Ptf1a in PancreasM-BM- versusM-BM- Neural Tube DevelopmentM-BM- correlates with distinctM-BM- collaborating cofactors and chromatin accessibility

Project description:Ptf1a is a lineage-specific basic-helix-loop-helix transcription factor critical in the development of both the pancreas and nervous system. How one transcription factor controls diverse programs of gene expression is a fundamental question in developmental biology. To uncover molecular strategies for the program-specific functions of Ptf1a, we identified bound genomic regions in vivo during development of both tissues. A majority of regions bound by Ptf1a are tissue-specific, lie near genes needed for proper formation and maturation of each tissue, and reflect regions of open chromatin.M-BM- M-BM- Information for the specificity of Ptf1a binding and function is encoded in the DNA surrounding the Ptf1a-bound sites, since Ptf1a-bound regions are sufficient to direct tissue-restricted reporter expression when tested in transgenic mice. Fox and Sox factors were identified as lineage specific modifiers ofM-BM- Ptf1a binding, sinceM-BM- binding motifs for these factors are enriched in Ptf1a-bound regions in pancreas and neural tube, respectively. Although Ptf1a and Foxa2 co-localize to sites in embryonic pancreas and can act synergistically in cell transfection assays, biochemical experiments detected no physical interaction between the two factors. These findingsM-BM- indicateM-BM- that lineage-specific chromatin landscapes likely constrain the functions of Ptf1a, and identify Fox and Sox gene families as part of this process.

Reprogramming Transcriptional Responses through Functionally-Distinct Classes of Enhancers in Prostate Cancer Cells [ChIP-Seq, Gro-Seq]

Project description:Mammalian genomes are populated with thousands of transcriptional enhancers that orchestrate cell type-specific gene expression programs; however, the potential that there are pre-established enhancers in different functional classes that permit alternative signal-dependent transcriptional responses has remained unexplored. Here we present evidence that cell lineage-specific factors, such as FoxA1, can simultaneously facilitate and restrict key regulated transcription factors, exemplified by the androgen receptor (AR), acting at structurally- and functionally-distinct classes of pre-established enhancers, thus licensing specific signal-activated responses while restricting others. Consequently, FoxA1 down-regulation, an unfavorable prognostic sign in advanced prostate tumors, causes a massive switch in AR binding from one functional class of enhancers to another, with a parallel switch in levels of enhancer-templated non-coding RNAs (eRNAs) revealed by the global run-on assay (GRO-seq), which documents the dramatic reprogramming of the hormonal response. The molecular basis for this switch lies in the release of FoxA1-mediated restriction of AR binding to the new enhancer class with no apparent nucleosome remodeling, which is required for stimulating their eRNA transcription and/or enhancing enhancer:promoter looping and gene activation. Together, these findings reveal a large repository of pre-determined enhancers in the human genome that can be dynamically tuned to induce their transcription and activation of alternative gene expression programs, which may underlie many sequential gene expression events in development or during disease progression. ChIP-Seq, Gro-Seq, and gene expression profiling was performed in LNCaP cells with hormone treatment and siRNA against FoxA1 ChIP-Seq and Gro-Seq data presented here. Supplementary file GroSeq.denovo.transcripts.hg18.bed represents analysis using GSM686948-GSM686950.

Scl specifies hemogenic endothelium and inhibits cardiogenesis via primed enhancers [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Scl/Tal1 confers hemogenic competence and prevents cardiomyogenesis in embryonic endothelium. Here we show that Scl both directly activates a broad gene regulatory network required for hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HS/PC) development, and represses transcriptional regulators required for cardiogenesis. Cardiac repression occurs during a short developmental window through Scl binding to distant cardiac enhancers that harbor H3K4me1 at this stage. Scl binding to hematopoietic regulators extends throughout HS/PC and erythroid development and spreads from distant enhancers to promoters. Surprisingly, Scl complex partners Gata 1 and 2 are dispensable for hematopoietic versus cardiac specification and Scl binding to the majority of its target genes. Nevertheless, Gata factors co-operate with Scl to activate selected transcription factors to facilitate HS/PC emergence from hemogenic endothelium. These results uncover a dual function for Scl in dictating hematopoietic versus cardiac fate choice and suggest a mechanism by which lineage-specific bHLH factors direct the divergence of competing fates.

ChIP-seq and mRNA-seq experiment to find the direct target genes of ATF4 and CHOP

Project description:We report the direct target genes of ATF4 and CHOP in response to endoplasim reticulum stress through next generation sequencing. By obtaining genowide sequence from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA with anti-CHOP and anit-ATF4, we identified direct binding sites of ATF4 and CHOP in promoter regions of their target genes in mouse embrynic fibroblasts (MEFs) in response to ER stress. In addition, we obtained list of genes which are differentially regulated in Atf4 or Chop-deficient MEFs compared to the wild-type MEFs in response to ER stress. We found that genes related with unfolded protein response and protein synthesis were directly regulated by ATF4 and CHOP. Through this observation, we conclude that main role of ATF4 and CHOP as transcription factors is to enhance mRNA translation in respone to ER stress. This sutdy provide new insight of genetic network of ATF4 and CHOP in response to ER stress. For ChIP-seq, Chop+/+ and Chop-/- MEFs were treated with Tunicamycin, N-glycosylation inhibitor, to induce ER stress for 8hr. Atf4+/+ and Atf4-/- MEFs were also treated same condition for ChIP-Seq. For mRNA-seq, wild-type, Atf4-/-, and Chop-/- MEFs were treated with tunicamycin for 8hr for experiments.

Project description:Purpose: To characterize changes in genome-wide H3K27me3 associated with homozygous inactivation the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) lysine methyltransferase Ezh2 in a mouse model of earlt T-cell precursor ALL (ETP-ALL) Methods: We performed Chip-seq for the H3K27me3 Chromatin mark on Ezh2ff and Ezh2ko cells NRASQ61K leukemias. Results: Inactivation of Ezh2 in this model leads to accelerated leukemia development. Resulting gene expression changes are complex and include enrichment of genes associated with immature hematopoietic cells, Ras signaling and Cytokines and their cognate receptors. Genes that lose K27me3 in Ezh2ko vs. Ezh2ff cells (ChIP-Seq) are enriched by GSEA in Ezh2ko vs Ezh2ff cells. Conclusions: Inactivation of Ezh2 in our model leads to accentuated expression of early hematopoietic gene expression programs, to accentuated growth and survival signaling and to transcriptonal enrichment of PRC2 targets. ChIP-Seq for H3K27me3 using Ezh2ff and Ezh2ko NRASQ61K leukemias harvested from leukemic mice and expanded on OP9DL1 cells.
