Genome-wide maps of chromatin state during cardiac reprogramming of human fibroblasts by small molecules

ABSTRACT: Cardiomyocyte-like cells can be reprogrammed from somatic fibroblasts by overexpression of cardiac genes, providing a new avenue for cardiac regenerative therapy. Here we report an alternative approach in which functional cardiomyocytes can be rapidly and efficiently generated from human fibroblasts by a specific combination of small molecules. ChIP-seq analysis has been used to understand the dynamic changes in chromatin state during early stage of reprogramming. We analyzed the genome-wide epigenetic changes by ChIP-seq analysis of H3K4me3 and H3K27ac (active chromatin marks) and H3K27me3 (inactive chromatin mark) at reprogramming Day 6 (D6) and day 11 (D11).

Identification of transcription factor Srf binding sites and histone 3 actetylated regions in mouse cardiomyocytes

Project description:We investigated the cardiac transcription network driven by the DNA-binding key factor Srf in combination with epigenetic marks of histone 3 acetylation (H3ac). Srf has been shown to play a key role in cardiac cell growth and muscle gene regulation. However, we still have limited understanding of the global transcription network driven by this factor in a direct or indirect manner. Moreover, we lack knowledge to which extent epigenetic marks such as histone modifications interfere with the regulation of direct targets. To gain insights into the transcriptional regulatory network two independent chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) samples were profiled. DNA fragments bound to Srf or modified with acetylated histone 3 in mouse cardiomyocytes (HL1-cells) were sequenced using ultra-high throughput DNA sequencing.

Sequencing and genome-wide mapping of 146 bp mono-nucleosomal DNA from human and bovine sperm

Project description:The phenomenon of nucleosome retention in mammalian sperm chromatin is still not clarified yet. The goal of our study was to characterize the binding sites of sperm nucleosomes in the human and bovine genomes, and through this, to clarify whether nucleosome retention in sperm underlies rules of great generality and has a biological function. Comparing two mammalian systems we found that nucleosomes remain mainly in centromeres and in non-coding intergenic and intron regions. In contrast, coding DNA, promoter regions and transcription start and end sites, especially in homeobox genes and in the majority of genes with relevance for organ development and morphogenesis, were nucleosome-free. 146 bp mono-nucleosomal DNA was isolated and purified from sperm samples of two fertile bulls (bos taurus), one fertile man and a pool of four fertile donors; each DNA sample was deep sequenced using Illumina GAIIx and genome-wide mapped on respective genome; nucleosome-binding sites were analyzed in a genome-wide comparative manner.

BET Bromodomains Mediate Transcriptional Pause Release in Heart Failure [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Heart failure is driven by the interplay between master regulatory transcription factors and dynamic alterations in chromatin structure. Coordinate activation of developmental, inflammatory, fibrotic and growth regulators underlies the hallmark phenotypes of pathologic cardiac hypertrophy and contractile failure. While transactivation in this context is known to be associated with recruitment of histone acetyl-transferase enzymes and local chromatin hyperacetylation, the role of epigenetic reader proteins in cardiac biology is unknown. We therefore undertook a first study of acetyl-lysine reader proteins, or bromodomains, in heart failure. Using a chemical genetic approach, we establish a central role for BET-family bromodomain proteins in gene control during the evolution of heart failure. BET inhibition suppresses cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in a cell-autonomous manner, confirmed by RNA interference in vitro. Following both pressure overload and neurohormonal stimulation, BET inhibition potently attenuates pathologic cardiac remodeling in vivo. Integrative transcriptional and epigenomic analyses reveal that BET proteins function mechanistically as pause-release factors critical to activation of canonical master regulators and effectors that are central to heart failure pathogenesis. Specifically, BET bromodomain inhibition in mice abrogates pathology-associated pause release and transcriptional elongation, thereby preventing activation of cardiac transcriptional pathways relevant to the gene expression profile of failing human hearts. This study implicates epigenetic readers in cardiac biology and identifies BET co-activator proteins as therapeutic targets in heart failure. ChIP-Seq of mouse heart tissues from mice induced with heart failure and treated with JQ1 BET bromodomain inhibitor

Reciprocal regulation of cardiac chromatin by the chromatin structural proteins HMGB and CTCF

Project description:Transcriptome remodeling in heart disease occurs through the coordinated actions of transcription factors, histone modifications and other chromatin features at pathology-associated genes. It remains unknown the extent to which genome-wide chromatin reorganization also contributes to the pathologic gene expression. We examined the roles of two chromatin structural proteins, CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor) and HMGB2 (high mobility group protein B2), in regulating pathologic transcription and chromatin remodeling. Our data demonstrate a reciprocal relationship between HMGB2 and CTCF in controlling aspects of chromatin structure and gene expression. Both proteins regulate each otherâs expression as well as transcription in cardiac myocytes: however, only HMGB2 does so in a manner that involves global reprogramming of chromatin accessibility. We demonstrate that the actions of HMGB2 on local chromatin accessibility are conserved across genomic loci, whereas the effects on transcription are loci-dependent and emerge in concert with histone modification and other chromatin features. Lastly, while both proteins share gene targets, HMGB2 and CTCF neither bind these genes simultaneously nor do they physically co-localize in myocyte nuclei. Our study uncovers a previously unknown relationship between these two ubiquitous chromatin proteins and provides a mechanistic explanation for how HMGB2 regulates gene expression and cellular phenotype. Furthermore, we demonstrate direct evidence for hierarchical remodeling of chromatin on a genome-wide scale in the setting of cardiac disease. Examination of a chromatin structural protein, HMGB2 in basal and agonist-treated cells.

Essential and unexpected role of YY1 to promote mesodermal cardiac differentiation

Project description:Rationale: Cardiogenesis is regulated by a complex interplay between transcription factors and chromatin-modifying enzymes. However, little is known about how these interactions regulate the transition from mesodermal precursors to cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Objective: To identify novel regulators of mesodermal cardiac lineage commitment. Methods and Results: We performed a bioinformatic-based transcription factor-binding site analysis on upstream promoter regions of genes that are enriched in ES cell-derived CPCs. From 32 candidate transcription factors screened, we found that YY1, a repressor of sarcomeric gene expression, is present in CPCs in vivo. Interestingly, we uncovered the ability of YY1 to transcriptionally activate Nkx2.5, a key marker of early cardiogenic commitment. YY1 regulates Nkx2.5 expression via a 2.1 kb cardiac-specific enhancer as demonstrated by in vitro luciferase-based assays and in vivo chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and genome-wide sequencing analysis. Furthermore, the ability of YY1 to activate Nkx2.5 expression depends on its cooperative interaction with GATA4 at a nearby chromatin. Cardiac mesoderm-specific loss-of-function of YY1 resulted in early embryonic lethality. This was corroborated in vitro by ES cell-based assays where we show that the over-expression of YY1 enhanced the cardiogenic differentiation ES cells into CPCs in a cell autonomous manner. Conclusion: These results demonstrate an essential and unexpected role for YY1 to promote cardiogenesis as a transcriptional activator of Nkx2.5 and other CPC-enriched genes. We report the identification of putative YY1 target genes in cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Two samples of independently FACS-purified eGFP+ CPCs were examined against the input.

Genome-wide ChIP sequencing of NUCKS

Project description:NUCKS has a DNA binding domain at C-terminal region. We found that NUCKS has important roles in regulating glucose homeostasis. To get an unbiased handle on the plausible mechanism(s) of NUCKS action, we performed a genome-wide Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-sequencing for NUCKS in primary hepatocytes. We successfully mapped 25mln reads to the mm9 genome and detected NUCKS binding at 10203 sites, 60% of which were located in the proximity of a Transcription Start Sites (TSS). The peaks of NUCKS occupancy were often broad with some around 1Kb, suggesting that multiple NUCKS molecules could bind cooperatively to the same genomic loci. This study provides information of NUCKS binding sites in Mus musculus genome. Examination of NUCKS binding in mouse primary hepatocytes by Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by deep sequencing.
