4C and Capture-C in HCT116, NCM460 cells and colon tissue

ABSTRACT: One of the strongest associated type 2 diabetes (T2D) loci reported to date resides within the TCF7L2 gene. Previous studies point to the T allele of rs7903146 in intron 3 as the causal variant at this locus. To aid in the identification of the actual gene(s) under the influence of this variant, we first generated a CRISPR/Cas9 mediated 1.4kb deletion of the genomic region harboring rs7903146 in the HCT116 cell line followed by global gene expression analysis (see experiment E-MTAB-4839). We then carried out high-throughput chromosome conformation capture assays in the HCT116 and NCM460 cell lines and in colon tissue in order to ascertain which of these perturbed genes promoters made consistent physical contact with the genomic region harboring the variant. To assess consistency and reproducibility we utilized two different techniques: Circularized Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C) and Capture C. In both types of assays, after preparing 3C libraries, our bait of interest was the region harboring rs7903146. Loci interacting with such bait are enriched for by inverse PCR in 4C and by oligonucleotide capture in capture C. 4C assays were carried out in the following samples: two on NCM460 cells (using different primer sets), one on HCT116 cells, one on HCT116 cells with a CRISPR/Cas9 mediated 1.4kb deletion of the genomic region harboring the SNP rs7903146, and one on colon tissue. Capture C assays were carried out in one sample each of the cell lines NCM 460 and HCT116. This experiment, coupled with the associated E-MTAB-4839, revealed just one gene, ACSL5, which resides in the same topologically associating domain as TCF7L2.

Promoter capture-C of primary human T Follicular Helper (TFH) cells and naive CD4-positive helper T cells from tonsils of healthy volunteers

Project description:Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have been successful in yielding >60 loci for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). However, it is known that GWAS just reports genomic signals and not necessarily the precise localization of culprit genes, with eQTL efforts only able to infer causality to a minority of such loci. Thus, we sought to carry out physical and direct ‘variant to gene mapping’ by integrating results from high-throughput chromatin conformation capture and ATAC-seq assays. This experiment refers to the chromatin conformation capture part of our work. Detecting contacts between distant regions of the genome offers a powerful opportunity to understand GWAS signals that principally reside in non-coding regions, and thus likely act as regulatory elements for neighboring genes. To move beyond analyzing one locus at a time and to improve on the low resolution of available Hi-C data, we employed a massively parallel, high resolution Capture-C based method to simultaneously characterize the genome-wide interactions of all human promoters in any cell type. We applied this approach to study the promoter ‘interactome’ of primary human T Follicular Helper (TFH) cells from tonsils of healthy volunteers (3 biological replicates), a model relevant to SLE as TFH operate upstream of the activation of pathogenic autoantibody-producing B cells during the disease. We also analyzed the promoter interactome of naive CD4-positive helper T cells (3 biological replicates). We designed a custom Agilent SureSelect library targeting both ends of DpnII restriction fragments that overlap promoters of protein-coding, noncoding, antisense, snRNA, miRNA, snoRNA and lincRNA transcripts. Each library was sequenced on 8 lanes of an Illumina HiSeq 4000.

Enhancers implicate new genes in QT interval below GWAS detection threshold

Project description:Our goal is to identify high-confidence candidate genes associated with sub-threshold QT interval loci. We predicted enhancer-promoter targets using two different methods. 1) We used the correlation in activity between enhancers and transcribed genes across 59 human cell lines and tissues to identify significantly correlated enhancer-promoter pairs that represent potential regulatory interactions. 2) We used chromosome conformation capture followed by high-throughput sequencing (4C-seq) to probe physical enhancer-promoter interactions.

Chromosome conformation capture-on-chip analysis of long-range cis interactions of the SOX9 promoter

Project description:Transcription factor SOX9 is essential for the differentiation of chondrocytes and the development of testes. Heterozygous point mutations and genomic deletions involving SOX9 lead to campomelic dysplasia (CD) often associated with sex reversal. Chromosomal rearrangements with breakpoints mapping up to 1.3 Mb up- and downstream to SOX9, and likely disrupting its distant cis-regulatory elements, have been described in patients with milder forms of CD. Performing chromosome conformation capture-on-chip (4C) analysis in Sertoli cells and lymphoblasts we identified several novel potentially cis-interacting regions both up- and downstream to SOX9, with some of them overlapping lncRNA genes preferentially expressed in testes. Custom designed 3x720K tiling microarrays covering 4 Mb region (chr17:68,117,161-72,122,560) flanking SOX9 gene of interest

UMI-4C for quantitative and targeted chromosomal contact profiling

Project description:We developed a targeted chromosome conformation capture (4C) approach that uses unique molecular identifiers (UMI) to derive high complexity quantitative chromosome contact profiles with controlled signal to noise ratios. We demonstrate that the method improves the sensitivity and specificity for detection of long-range chromosomal interactions, and that it allows the design of interaction screens with predictable statistical power. UMI-4C robustly quantifies contact intensity changes between cell types and conditions, opening the way toward incorporation of long-range interactions in quantitative models of gene regulation. We constructed UMI-4C profiles of 13 different genomic loci (viewpoints) in five different cell lines, in order to study the 3D chromatin contact maps of these selected loci. The coordinates for these viewpoints are: G1p1 chrX:48646542; baitG1_3_5kb chrX:48641393; bait_50kb chrX:48595987; bait_165kb chrX:48476525; ANK1 chr8:41654693; hbb_3HS chr11:5221346; hbb_HBB chr11:5248714; hbb_HBBP1_G1 chr11:5266532; HBB_HBE chr11:5292159; HBB_HS2 chr11:5301345; HBB_HS3 chr11:5306690; HBB_HS5 chr11:5313539; HBB_HBD chr11:5256597

4C-seq: Temporal dynamics and developmental memory of 3D chromatin architecture at Hox gene loci

Project description:Hox genes are essential regulators of embryonic development. They are activated in a temporal sequence following their topological order within their genomic clusters. Subsequently, states of activity are fine-tuned and maintained to translate into domains of progressively overlapping gene products. While the mechanisms underlying such temporal and spatial progressions begin to be understood, many of their aspects remain unclear. We have systematically analyzed the 3D chromatin organization of Hox clusters in vivo, during their activation using high-resolution circular chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq). Initially, Hox clusters are organized as single 3D chromatin compartments decorated with bivalent chromatin marks. Their progressive transcriptional activation is associated with a dynamic bi-modal 3D organization, whereby the genes switch one after the other, from an inactive to an active 3D compartment. These local 3D dynamics occur within a larger constitutive framework of interactions within the surrounding Topological Associated Domains, which confirms previous results that regulation of this process in primarily cluster intrinsic. The local step-wise progression in time can be stopped and memorized at various body levels and hence it may accounts for the various chromatin architectures previously described at different anterior to posterior body levels for the same embryo at a later stage. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C-seq) samples from mouse ES cells and mouse embryonic samples at different stages of development. Data based on 41 biological samples.

Cause and consequence of tethering a sub-TAD to different nuclear compartments

Project description:Detailed genomic contact maps have revealed that chromosomes are composed of developmentally stable topologically associated domains (TADs) and more flexible sub-TADs. These domains reside in active and inactive nuclear compartments, but cause and consequence of compartmentalization are largely unknown. Here, we combined lacO/lacR binding platforms with allele-specific 4C technologies to track their precise position in the three-dimensional genome upon recruitment of NANOG, SUV39H1 or EZH2. We observed locked genomic loci resistant to spatial repositioning and unlocked loci that could be repositioned to different nuclear sub-compartments with distinct chromatin signatures. Focal protein recruitment caused the entire sub- TAD, but not surrounding regions, to engage in new genomic contacts. Compartment switching was uncoupled from gene expression changes and enzymatically modifying histones per se was insufficient for repositioning. Collectively this suggests that transassociated factors determine three-dimensional compartmentalization independent of their cis-effect on local chromatin composition and activity. 4C-seq was performed on a range of viewpoints in 129/Sv;C57BL/6 embryonic stem cells carying a lacO array in chromosome 8 and 11.

Structural variation-induced changes of chromatin architecture and gene expression

Project description:Copy number variants (CNVs) influence the expression of genes that map not only within the rearrangement, but also to its flanks. To assess the possible mechanism(s) underlying this “neighboring effect”, we compared intrachromosomal interactions and histone modifications in cell lines of patients affected by genomic disorders and control individuals. Using chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq), we observed that a set of genes flanking the Williams-Beuren Syndrome critical region (WBSCR) were often looping together, possibly forming an interacting cluster with each other and the WBSCR. Deletion of the WBSCR disrupts the expression of this group of flanking genes, as well as long-range interactions between them and the rearranged interval. We also pinpointed concomitant changes in histone modifications between samples.We conclude that large genomic rearrangements can lead to chromatin conformation changes that extend far away from the structural variant, thereby possibly modulating expression globally and modifying the phenotype. For example, we determined that the chromatin conformation, histone marks and relative expression levels of the flanking AUTS2 gene, mutations of which are associated with autism and intellectual disabilities, are modified in cell lines from Williams-Beuren syndrome patients. Examination of 4C-seq interaction profile of seven different genes (of which three in duplicate) in 2 different cell lines.
