Project description:This study aims to investigate the interactions of mutagenic lesions from diethylnitrosamine (DEN) treatment of mouse livers with such processes as replication, transcription, and interaction of DNA with proteins. Liver samples of 15-day old (P15) untreated C3H/HeOuJ mice were isolated and flash-frozen. ATAC-seq was performed to identify the regions of open chromatin and sites likely to be occupied by transcription factors.

Project description:During development histone modifying enzymes are required for cell identity and lineage commitment, however little is known about the regulatory origins of the epigenome during embryonic development. Here we generate a comprehensive set of embryonic epigenome reference maps, which we use to determine the extent to which maternal factors shape chromatin state in Xenopus embryos. Using α-amanitin to inhibit zygotic transcription, we find that the majority of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3-enriched regions form a maternally defined epigenetic regulatory space with an underlying logic of hypomethylated islands. This maternal regulatory space extends to a substantial proportion of neurula stage-activated promoters. In contrast, p300-recruitment to distal regulatory regions requires embryonic transcription at most loci. The results show that H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 are part of a regulatory space that exerts an extended maternal control well into post-gastrulation development, and highlight the combinatorial action of maternal and zygotic factors through proximal and distal regulatory sequences. We have performed ChIP-sequencing of eight histone modifications, RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) and the enhancer protein p300 at five stages of development: blastula (st. 9), gastrula (st. 10.5, 12.5), neurula (st. 16) and tailbud (st. 30). These experiments allow identification of enhancers (H3K4me1, p300), promoters (H3K4me3, H3K9ac), transcribed regions (H3K36me3, RNAPII) and repressed and heterochromatic domains (H3K27me3, H3K9me2, H3K9me3, H4K20me3). In addition we generated pre-MBT (st. 8) maps for three histone modifications (H3K4me3, H3K9ac, H3K27me3) and single-base resolution DNA methylome maps using whole genome bisulfite sequencing of blastula and gastrula (st. 9 and 10.5) embryos. To determine the maternal and zygotic contributions to chromatin state, we used alpha-amanitin to block embryonic transcription. Fertilised eggs were injected with 2.3 nl of 2.67 ng/ul alpha-amanitin and developed until the control embryos reached mid-gastrulation. Alpha-amanitin and control embryos were used for RNA-seq and ChIP-seq of RNAPII, H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and p300. For all ChIP-seq samples of the epigenome reference maps and RNAPII ChIP-seq samples of the α-amanitin experiments three biological replicates of different chromatin isolations of 45 embryos were pooled. Two biological replicates for H3K4me3 (α-amanitin injected: resp. 90 and 56 embryo equivalents (eeq); control: resp. 45 and 67 eeq), H3K27me3 (α-amanitin injected: resp. 90 and 180 eeq; control: resp. 45 and 202 eeq) and p300 (α-amanitin injected: resp. 112 and 56 eeq; control: resp. 112 and 67 eeq) ChIP-seq samples of the α-amanitin experiments were generated. For RNA-seq samples of the α-amanitin experiments RNA from 5 embryos from one biological replicate was isolated and depleted of ribosomal RNA

Project description:Although technological advances now allow increased tumor profiling, a detailed understanding of the mechanisms leading to the development of different cancers remains elusive. Our approach towards understanding the molecular events that lead to cancer is to characterize changes in transcriptional regulatory networks between normal and tumor tissue. Because enhancer activity is thought to be critical in regulating cell fate decisions, we have focused our studies on distal regulatory elements and transcription factors that bind to these elements. Using DNA methylation data, we identified more than 25,000 enhancers that are differentially activated in breast, prostate, and kidney tumor tissues, as compared to normal tissues. We then developed an analytical approach called TENET (Tracing Enhancer Networks using Epigenetic Traits) that correlates DNA methylation levels at enhancers with gene expression to identify more than 800,000 genome-wide links from enhancers to genes and from genes to enhancers. We found more than 1,200 transcription factors to be involved in these tumor-specific enhancer networks. We further characterized several transcription factors linked to a large number of enhancers in each tumor type, including GATA3 in non-basal breast tumors, HOXC6 and DLX1 in prostate tumors, and ZNF395 in kidney tumors. We showed that HOXC6 and DLX1 are associated with different clusters of prostate tumor-specific enhancers and confer distinct transcriptomic changes upon knockdown in C42B prostate cancer cells. We also discovered de novo motifs enriched in enhancers linked to ZNF395 in kidney tumors. Our studies characterized tumor-specific enhancers and revealed key transcription factors involved in enhancer networks for specific tumor types and subgroups. Our findings, which include a large set of identified enhancers and transcription factors linked to those enhancers in breast, prostate, and kidney cancers, will facilitate understanding of enhancer networks and mechanisms leading to the development of these cancers.

Project description:The limited number of in vivo germ cells poses an impediment to genome-wide studies. Here, we applied a small-scale ChIP-Seq method on purified mouse fetal germ cells to generate genome-wide maps of four histone modifications (H3K4me3, H3K27me3, H3K27ac and H2BK20ac), facilitating the identification of active and repressed cis-regulatory elements in germ cells in vivo. Comparison of active chromatin state between somatic, embryonic stem cells (ESC) and germ cells revealed promoters and enhancers needed for stem cell maintenance and germ cell development. The nuclear receptor Nr5a2 motif is enriched at a subset of cis-regulatory regions and we confirm its role in germ cell differentiation. Interestingly, germ cells have comparatively more H3K27me3-marked sites that are absent in ESC and other somatic cell types. These repressed regions are enriched for retrotransposons and MHC genes and this indicates that these loci are specifically silenced in germ cells. Together, our study provides the first genome-wide histone modification maps of in vivo germ cells and revealed the molecular chromatin signatures unique to germ cells. Germ cells were FACS-purified from gonadal single cell suspension based on Pou5f1-GFP expression. ChIP-seq of Histone modification was done for two timepoints in this study: E11.5 (male/female), E13.5 (male). For E13.5 timepoint, two biological replicates were analyzed. In order to validate small scale ChIP-seq method limited number of ES cells were used to check consistency of ChIP-seq data.

Project description:The regulatory elements that direct tissue-specific gene expression in the developing mammalian embryo remain largely unknown. Although chromatin profiling has proven to be a powerful method for mapping regulatory sequences in cultured cells, chromatin states characteristic of active developmental enhancers have not been directly identified in embryonic tissues. Here we use whole transcriptome analysis coupled with genome-wide profiling of H3K27ac and H3K27me3 to map chromatin states and enhancers in mouse embryonic forelimb and hindlimb. We show that gene expression differences between forelimb and hindlimb, and between limb and other embryonic cell types, are correlated with tissue-specific H3K27ac signatures at promoters and distal sites. Using H3K27ac profiles, we identified 28,377 putative enhancers, many of which are likely to be limb-specific based on strong enrichment near genes highly expressed in the limb and comparisons with tissue-specific p300 sites and known enhancers. We describe a chromatin state signature associated with active developmental enhancers, defined by high levels of H3K27ac marking, nucleosome displacement, hypersensitivity to sonication, and strong depletion of H3K27me3. We also find that developmental enhancers exhibit components of this signature, including hypersensitivity, H3K27ac enrichment and H3K27me3 depletion, at lower levels in tissues in which they are not active. Our results establish histone modification profiling as a tool for developmental enhancer discovery, and suggest that enhancers maintain an open chromatin state in multiple embryonic tissues independent of their activity level.
