MPE-seq, a New Method for the Genome-wide Analysis of Chromatin Structure

ABSTRACT: In this study we developed MPE-seq, a method for the genome-wide characterization of chromatin that involves the digestion of nuclei with methidiumpropyl-EDTA-Fe(II) [MPE-Fe(II)] followed by massively parallel sequencing. Like micrococcal nuclease (MNase), MPE-Fe(II) preferentially cleaves the linker DNA between nucleosomes. We also performed MNase-seq as a comparison. We further performed ChIP-seq using chromatin samples obtained by MPE-Fe(II) or MNase digestion of nuclei. Nuclei from J1 mouse embryonic stem cells were treated with MPE-Fe(II) or MNase. The isolated DNA was sequenced by Illumina HiSeq sequencers. Some of the digested chromatin was studied by performing ChIP-seq using antibodies against histone H2B or H3.

Promoter directionality is controlled by U1 snRNP and polyadenylation signals

Project description:Transcription of the mammalian genome is pervasive, but productive transcription outside of protein-coding genes is limited by unknown mechanisms. In particular, although RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) initiates divergently from most active gene promoters, productive elongation occurs primarily in the sense-coding direction. Here we show in mouse embryonic stem cells that asymmetric sequence determinants flanking gene transcription start sites control promoter directionality by regulating promoter-proximal cleavage and polyadenylation. We find that upstream antisense RNAs are cleaved and polyadenylated at poly(A) sites (PASs) shortly after initiation. De novo motif analysis shows PAS signals and U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) recognition sites to be the most depleted and enriched sequences, respectively, in the sense direction relative to the upstream antisense direction. These U1 snRNP sites and PAS sites are progressively gained and lost, respectively, at the 5' end of coding genes during vertebrate evolution. Functional disruption of U1 snRNP activity results in a dramatic increase in promoter-proximal cleavage events in the sense direction with slight increases in the antisense direction. These data suggest that a U1-PAS axis characterized by low U1 snRNP recognition and a high density of PASs in the upstream antisense region reinforces promoter directionality by promoting early termination in upstream antisense regions, whereas proximal sense PAS signals are suppressed by U1 snRNP. We propose that the U1-PAS axis limits pervasive transcription throughout the genome. 3' end sequencing of poly (A) + RNAs in mouse ES cells with and without U1 snRNP inhibition using antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (AMO). Each with two biological replicates.

Transcriptional Architecture and Chromatin Landscape of the Core Circadian Clock in Mammals [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The mammalian circadian clock involves a transcriptional feedback loop in which CLOCK and BMAL1 activate the Period and Cryptochrome genes, which then feedback and repress their own transcription. We have interrogated the transcriptional architecture of the circadian transcriptional regulatory loop on a genome scale in mouse liver and find a stereotyped, time-dependent pattern of transcription factor binding, RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) recruitment, RNA expression and chromatin states. We find that the circadian transcriptional cycle of the clock consists of three distinct phases - a poised state, a coordinated de novo transcriptional activation state, and a repressed state. Interestingly only 22% of mRNA cycling genes are driven by de novo transcription, suggesting that both transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms underlie the mammalian circadian clock. We also find that circadian modulation of RNAPII recruitment and chromatin remodeling occurs on a genome-wide scale far greater than that seen previously by gene expression profiling.

Mapping of variable DNA methylation across multiple cell types defines a dynamic regulatory landscape of the human genome

Project description:DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification involved in many biological processes and diseases. Many studies have mapped DNA methylation changes associated with embryogenesis, cell differentiation and cancer at a genome-wide scale. Our understanding of genome-wide DNA methylation changes in a developmental or disease-related context has been steadily growing. However, the investigation of which CpGs are variably methylated in different normal cell or tissue types is still limited. Here we present an in-depth analysis of 54 single-CpG-resolution DNA methylomes of normal human cell types by integrating high-throughput sequencing-based methylation data. We find that the percentage of unmethylated CpGs is relatively fixed regardless of cell type. However, which CpGs are unmethylated is cell-type specific. We categorize the 26 million human autosomal CpGs based on their methylation levels across multiple cell types to identify variably methylated CpGs. Among all the autosomal CpGs, 22.6% exhibit variable DNA methylation across cell types included in our study. These variably methylated CpGs form 66 thousand variably methylated regions (VMRs), encompassing 11% of the genome. By integrating a multitude of genomic data, we found that VMRs enrich for histone modifications indicative of enhancers, suggesting their role as regulatory elements marking cell type specificity. VMRs enrich for transcription factor binding sites in a tissue-dependent manner. Importantly, they enrich for GWAS variants, suggesting VMRs could potentially be implicated in disease and complex traits. Taken together, our results highlight the link among CpG methylation variation, genetic variation and disease risk in a tissue-specific manner for many human cell types. Processed data includes new Samples and 75 Samples from GSE16368 and 2 Samples from GSE51565.

IkBa associates with histone H2A in human keratinocytes

Project description:Here, we demonstrate that IkBa displays a predominant and unique nuclear localization in normal basal keratinocytes. This nuclear IkBa binds the chromatin through direct interaction of the ankyrin repeats with histone H2A and associates with the promoter and regulatory regions of several developmental-related genes including HOXA10, HOXB2 and HOXB9. Most importantly, IkBa dictates the competence of these HOX genes to be activated upon TNFa stimulation. Examination of IkBalpha location in keratinocyte cells

Hog1 bypasses stress-mediated down-regulation of transcription by PolII redistribution and chromatin remodeling

Project description:Cells are subjected to dramatic changes on gene expression upon environmental changes. Stress causes a general down-regulation of gene expression together with the induction of a set of stress-responsive genes. Genome wide localisation studies showed major changes on Pol II localisation towards stress-responsive genes in contrast to housekeeping genes. Pol II relocalisation requires of the Hog1 SAPK, which also associates at stress-responsive loci. Chromatin structure was not significantly altered upon stress except for those genes that displayed Hog1 association. Together, Hog1 serves to bypass the general down-regulation of gene expression by targeting RNA Pol II machinery and inducing chromatin remodeling at stress-responsive loci. Hog1 and Pol II ChIP-Seq and Mnase-Seq experiments in both strains WT and Hog1 mutant, for 2 conditions: Exposed and not exposed to osmostress

The SNF2-like helicase HELLS mediates E2F3-dependent transcription and cellular transformation

Project description:The activating E2F-transcription factors are best known for their dependence on the Retinoblastoma protein and their role in cellular proliferation. E2F3 is uniquely amplified in specific human tumours where its expression is inversely correlated with the survival of patients. Here, E2F3 interaction partners were identified by mass spectrometric analysis. We show that the SNF2-like HELLS interacts with E2F3 in vivo and cooperates with its oncogenic functions. Depletion of HELLS severely perturbs the induction of E2F-target genes, hinders cell cycle re-entry and growth. Using chromatin immmunoprecipitation coupled to sequencing we identified genome-wide targets of HELLS and E2F3. Our analysis revealed that HELLS binds near promoters of active genes, including the trithorax-related MLL1, and co-regulates E2F3-dependent genes. Our analysis is the first to link HELLS with E2F-controlled processes that are critical to establish a proliferative tumour circuitry. Strikingly, just as E2F3, HELLS is overexpressed in human tumours including prostate cancer, indicating that either factor may contribute to the malignant progression of tumours. Our work reveals that HELLS is important for E2F3 in tumour cell proliferation. Examination of E2F3, Hells, and H3K27me3 in 2 cell types.
