Genome-wide Interrogation of Protein-DNA Interactions in Mammalian Cells Using ChIPmentation.

ABSTRACT: Mapping the genomic locations of chromatin-associated proteins, such as transcription factors and histone modifications, is key to understanding the mechanisms of transcriptional regulation. ChIPmentation offers a simple and robust way of investigating the genomic binding sites of a protein using relatively low-input material. Here, we present a detailed protocol for the key steps that lead to a successful ChIPmentation experiment, as well as a quick analysis pipeline to examine the data. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Schmidl et al. (2015). For example data produced by this protocol, please refer to Henriksson et al. (2019) and Zhang et al. (2019).

Interrogation of Mammalian Protein Complex Structure, Function, and Membership Using Genome-Scale Fitness Screens.

Project description:Protein complexes are assemblies of subunits that have co-evolved to execute one or many coordinated functions in the cellular environment. Functional annotation of mammalian protein complexes is critical to understanding biological processes, as well as disease mechanisms. Here, we used genetic co-essentiality derived from genome-scale RNAi- and CRISPR-Cas9-based fitness screens performed across hundreds of human cancer cell lines to assign measures of functional similarity. From these measures, we systematically built and characterized functional similarity networks that recapitulate known structural and functional features of well-studied protein complexes and resolve novel functional modules within complexes lacking structural resolution, such as the mammalian SWI/SNF complex. Finally, by integrating functional networks with large protein-protein interaction networks, we discovered novel protein complexes involving recently evolved genes of unknown function. Taken together, these findings demonstrate the utility of genetic perturbation screens alone, and in combination with large-scale biophysical data, to enhance our understanding of mammalian protein complexes in normal and disease states.

Genome-wide interrogation of Mammalian stem cell fate determinants by nested chromosome deletions.

Project description:Understanding the function of important DNA elements in mammalian stem cell genomes would be enhanced by the availability of deletion collections in which segmental haploidies are precisely characterized. Using a modified Cre-loxP-based system, we now report the creation and characterization of a collection of ?1,300 independent embryonic stem cell (ESC) clones enriched for nested chromosomal deletions. Mapping experiments indicate that this collection spans over 25% of the mouse genome with good representative coverage of protein-coding genes, regulatory RNAs, and other non-coding sequences. This collection of clones was screened for in vitro defects in differentiation of ESC into embryoid bodies (EB). Several putative novel haploinsufficient regions, critical for EB development, were identified. Functional characterization of one of these regions, through BAC complementation, identified the ribosomal gene Rps14 as a novel haploinsufficient determinant of embryoid body formation. This new library of chromosomal deletions in ESC (DelES: http://bioinfo.iric.ca/deles) will serve as a unique resource for elucidation of novel protein-coding and non-coding regulators of ESC activity.

An optimized chromatin immunoprecipitation protocol using Staph-seq for analyzing genome-wide protein-DNA interactions.

Project description:Genome-wide mapping of transcription factors (TFs) is critical to understand their functions. In chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-seq assay, it's challenging to study recruitment of low-abundant TFs transiently boud to the genome. Here, we present an optimized protocol using ChIP Next-Gen Seq Sepharose (Staph-seq) to efficiently pull down chromatin complexes. The double size selection promotes sensitive capture of genome-wide protein-DNA associations while eliminating potential Staph A contamination, which is a common problem in protocols using Staph A cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Tao et al. (2020).1.

Genome-wide interrogation of extracellular vesicle biology using barcoded miRNAs.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles mediate transfer of biologically active molecules between neighboring or distant cells, and these vesicles may play important roles in normal physiology and the pathogenesis of multiple disease states including cancer. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of their biogenesis and release remain unknown. We designed artificially barcoded, exosomal microRNAs (bEXOmiRs) to monitor extracellular vesicle release quantitatively using deep sequencing. We then expressed distinct pairs of CRISPR guide RNAs and bEXOmiRs, enabling identification of genes influencing bEXOmiR secretion from Cas9-edited cells. This approach uncovered genes with unrecognized roles in multivesicular endosome exocytosis, including critical roles for Wnt signaling in extracellular vesicle release regulation. Coupling bEXOmiR reporter analysis with CRISPR-Cas9 screening provides a powerful and unbiased means to study extracellular vesicle biology and for the first time, to associate a nucleic acid tag with individual membrane vesicles.

Characterization of filovirus protein-protein interactions in mammalian cells using bimolecular complementation.

Project description:The virion protein 40 (VP40) and nucleoprotein (NP) of Ebola (EBOV) and Marburg viruses (MARV) play key roles during virion assembly and egress. The ability to detect interactions between VP40-VP40, VP40-NP, and NP-NP and follow these complexes as they traffic through mammalian cells would enhance our understanding of the molecular events leading to filovirus assembly and budding, and provide new insights into filovirus replication and pathogenesis. Here, we successfully employed a bimolecular complementation (BiMC) approach to visualize interactions between EBOV and MARV VP40-VP40, NP-NP, and VP40-NP proteins and localize these protein complexes in mammalian cells using confocal microscopy. We demonstrate that VP40-VP40 complexes localized predominantly at the plasma membrane, whereas VP40-NP and NP-NP complexes displayed a more dispersed pattern throughout the cytoplasm. As expected based on previous findings, efficient interactions between EBOV or MARV VP40-VP40 proteins were independent of L-domains PTAPPEY and PPPY, respectively. In contrast, the formation of EBOV or MARV VP40-VP40 complexes was dependent on the previously characterized LPLGVA and LPLGIM motifs of EBOV and MARV VP40 proteins, respectively, indicating that these motifs are important for VP40 oligomerization and subsequent budding. These results highlight the feasibility and usefulness of the BiMC approach as a strategy to further characterize both filovirus protein interactions as well as filovirus-host interactions in real time in the natural environment of the cell.

Comprehensive genome-wide protein-DNA interactions detected at single-nucleotide resolution.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP-chip and ChIP-seq) assays identify where proteins bind throughout a genome. However, DNA contamination and DNA fragmentation heterogeneity produce false positives (erroneous calls) and imprecision in mapping. Consequently, stringent data filtering produces false negatives (missed calls). Here we describe ChIP-exo, where an exonuclease trims ChIP DNA to a precise distance from the crosslinking site. Bound locations are detectable as peak pairs by deep sequencing. Contaminating DNA is degraded or fails to form complementary peak pairs. With the single bp accuracy provided by ChIP-exo, we show an unprecedented view into genome-wide binding of the yeast transcription factors Reb1, Gal4, Phd1, Rap1, and human CTCF. Each of these factors was chosen to address potential limitations of ChIP-exo. We found that binding sites become unambiguous and reveal diverse tendencies governing in vivo DNA-binding specificity that include sequence variants, functionally distinct motifs, motif clustering, secondary interactions, and combinatorial modules within a compound motif.

Genome-wide Mapping of Protein-DNA Interactions with ChEC-seq in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:Genome-wide mapping of protein-DNA interactions is critical for understanding gene regulation, chromatin remodeling, and other chromatin-resident processes. Formaldehyde crosslinking followed by chromatin immunoprecipitation and high-throughput sequencing (X-ChIP-seq) has been used to gain many valuable insights into genome biology. However, X-ChIP-seq has notable limitations linked to crosslinking and sonication. Native ChIP avoids these drawbacks by omitting crosslinking, but often results in poor recovery of chromatin-bound proteins. In addition, all ChIP-based methods are subject to antibody quality considerations. Enzymatic methods for mapping protein-DNA interactions, which involve fusion of a protein of interest to a DNA-modifying enzyme, have also been used to map protein-DNA interactions. We recently combined one such method, chromatin endogenous cleavage (ChEC), with high-throughput sequencing as ChEC-seq. ChEC-seq relies on fusion of a chromatin-associated protein of interest to micrococcal nuclease (MNase) to generate targeted DNA cleavage in the presence of calcium in living cells. ChEC-seq is not based on immunoprecipitation and so circumvents potential concerns with crosslinking, sonication, chromatin solubilization, and antibody quality while providing high resolution mapping with minimal background signal. We envision that ChEC-seq will be a powerful counterpart to ChIP, providing an independent means by which to both validate ChIP-seq findings and discover new insights into genomic regulation.

Genome-Wide Mapping of in Vivo Protein-DNA Interactions

Project description:In vivo protein-DNA interactions connect each transcription factor with its direct targets to form a gene network scaffold. To map these protein-DNA interactions comprehensively across entire mammalian genomes, we developed a large-scale chromatin immunoprecipitation assay (ChIPSeq) based on direct ultrahigh-throughput DNA sequencing. This sequence census method was then used to map in vivo binding of the neuron-restrictive silencer factor (NRSF; also known as REST, for repressor element–1 silencing transcription factor) to 1946 locations in the human genome. The data display sharp resolution of binding position [±50 base pairs (bp)], which facilitated our finding motifs and allowed us to identify noncanonical NRSF-binding motifs. These ChIPSeq data also have high sensitivity and specificity [ROC (receiver operator characteristic) area ≥ 0.96] and statistical confidence (P < 10−4), properties that were important for inferring new candidate interactions. These include key transcription factors in the gene network that regulates pancreatic islet cell development.

Fast and accurate genome-wide predictions and structural modeling of protein-protein interactions using Galaxy.

Project description:BackgroundProtein-protein interactions play a crucial role in almost all cellular processes. Identifying interacting proteins reveals insight into living organisms and yields novel drug targets for disease treatment. Here, we present a publicly available, automated pipeline to predict genome-wide protein-protein interactions and produce high-quality multimeric structural models.ResultsApplication of our method to the Human and Yeast genomes yield protein-protein interaction networks similar in quality to common experimental methods. We identified and modeled Human proteins likely to interact with the papain-like protease of SARS-CoV2's non-structural protein 3. We also produced models of SARS-CoV2's spike protein (S) interacting with myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein receptor and dipeptidyl peptidase-4.ConclusionsThe presented method is capable of confidently identifying interactions while providing high-quality multimeric structural models for experimental validation. The interactome modeling pipeline is available at usegalaxy.org and usegalaxy.eu.

Genome-wide gene-environment interactions on quantitative traits using family data.

Project description:Gene-environment interactions may provide a mechanism for targeting interventions to those individuals who would gain the most benefit from them. Searching for interactions agnostically on a genome-wide scale requires large sample sizes, often achieved through collaboration among multiple studies in a consortium. Family studies can contribute to consortia, but to do so they must account for correlation within families by using specialized analytic methods. In this paper, we investigate the performance of methods that account for within-family correlation, in the context of gene-environment interactions with binary exposures and quantitative outcomes. We simulate both cross-sectional and longitudinal measurements, and analyze the simulated data taking family structure into account, via generalized estimating equations (GEE) and linear mixed-effects models. With sufficient exposure prevalence and correct model specification, all methods perform well. However, when models are misspecified, mixed modeling approaches have seriously inflated type I error rates. GEE methods with robust variance estimates are less sensitive to model misspecification; however, when exposures are infrequent, GEE methods require modifications to preserve type I error rate. We illustrate the practical use of these methods by evaluating gene-drug interactions on fasting glucose levels in data from the Framingham Heart Study, a cohort that includes related individuals.
