Cellular macromolecules-tethered DNA walking indexing to explore nanoenvironments of chromatin modifications.

ABSTRACT: Exploring spatial organization and relationship of diverse biomolecules within cellular nanoenvironments is important to elucidate the fundamental processes of life. However, it remains methodologically challenging. Herein, we report a molecular recognition mechanism cellular macromolecules-tethered DNA walking indexing (Cell-TALKING) to probe the nanoenvironments containing diverse chromatin modifications. As an example, we characterize the nanoenvironments of three DNA modifications around one histone posttranslational modification (PTM). These DNA modifications in fixed cells are labeled with respective DNA barcoding probes, and then the PTM site is tethered with a DNA walking probe. Cell-TALKING can continuously produce cleavage records of any barcoding probes nearby the walking probe. New 3'-OH ends are generated on the cleaved barcoding probes to induce DNA amplification for downstream detections. Combining fluorescence imaging, we identify various combinatorial chromatin modifications and investigate their dynamic changes during cell cycles. We also explore the nanoenvironments in different cancer cell lines and clinical specimens. In principle, using high-throughput sequencing instead of fluorescence imaging may allow the detection of complex cellular nanoenvironments containing tens of biomolecules such as transcription factors.

Profiling single-cell histone modifications using indexing chromatin immunocleavage sequencing.

Project description:Recently, multiple single-cell assays were developed for detecting histone marks at the single-cell level. These techniques are either limited by the low cell throughput or sparse reads which limit their applications. To address these problems, we introduce indexing single-cell immunocleavage sequencing (iscChIC-seq), a multiplex indexing method based on TdT terminal transferase and T4 DNA ligase-mediated barcoding strategy and single-cell ChIC-seq, which is capable of readily analyzing histone modifications across tens of thousands of single cells in one experiment. Application of iscChIC-seq to profiling H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 in human white blood cells (WBCs) enabled successful detection of more than 10,000 single cells for each histone modification with 11 K and 45 K nonredundant reads per cell, respectively. Cluster analysis of these data allowed identification of monocytes, T cells, B cells, and NK cells from WBCs. The cell types annotated from H3K4me3 single-cell data are specifically correlated with the cell types annotated from H3K27me3 single-cell data. Our data indicate that iscChIC-seq is a reliable technique for profiling histone modifications in a large number of single cells, which may find broad applications in studying cellular heterogeneity and differentiation status in complex developmental and disease systems.

Multiplex single cell profiling of chromatin accessibility by combinatorial cellular indexing.

Project description:Technical advances have enabled the collection of genome and transcriptome data sets with single-cell resolution. However, single-cell characterization of the epigenome has remained challenging. Furthermore, because cells must be physically separated before biochemical processing, conventional single-cell preparatory methods scale linearly. We applied combinatorial cellular indexing to measure chromatin accessibility in thousands of single cells per assay, circumventing the need for compartmentalization of individual cells. We report chromatin accessibility profiles from more than 15,000 single cells and use these data to cluster cells on the basis of chromatin accessibility landscapes. We identify modules of coordinately regulated chromatin accessibility at the level of single cells both between and within cell types, with a scalable method that may accelerate progress toward a human cell atlas.

Chromatin-tethered MAPKs.

Project description:Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are a family of protein kinases that are essential nodes in many cellular regulatory circuits including those that take place on DNA. Most members of the four MAPK subgroups that exist in canonical three kinase cascades-extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), ERK5, c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK1-3), and p38 (α, β, γ, and δ) families-have been shown to perform regulatory functions on chromatin. This review offers a brief update on the variety of processes that involve MAPKs and available mechanisms garnered in the last two years.

The DNA demethylase ROS1 targets genomic regions with distinct chromatin modifications.

Project description:The Arabidopsis ROS1/DEMETER family of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) DNA glycosylases are the first genetically characterized DNA demethylases in eukaryotes. However, the features of ROS1-targeted genomic loci are not well understood. In this study, we characterized ROS1 target loci in Arabidopsis Col-0 and C24 ecotypes. We found that ROS1 preferentially targets transposable elements (TEs) and intergenic regions. Compared with most TEs, ROS1-targeted TEs are closer to protein coding genes, suggesting that ROS1 may prevent DNA methylation spreading from TEs to nearby genes. ROS1-targeted TEs are specifically enriched for H3K18Ac and H3K27me3, and depleted of H3K27me and H3K9me2. Importantly, we identified thousands of previously unknown RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) targets following depletion of ROS1, suggesting that ROS1 strongly antagonizes RdDM at these loci. In addition, we show that ROS1 also antagonizes RdDM-independent DNA methylation at some loci. Our results provide important insights into the genome-wide targets of ROS1 and the crosstalk between DNA methylation and ROS1-mediated active DNA demethylation.

LEM-3 is a midbody-tethered DNA nuclease that resolves chromatin bridges during late mitosis.

Project description:Faithful chromosome segregation and genome maintenance requires the removal of all DNA bridges that physically link chromosomes before cells divide. Using C. elegans embryos we show that the LEM-3/Ankle1 nuclease defines a previously undescribed genome integrity mechanism by processing DNA bridges right before cells divide. LEM-3 acts at the midbody, the structure where abscission occurs at the end of cytokinesis. LEM-3 localization depends on factors needed for midbody assembly, and LEM-3 accumulation is increased and prolonged when chromatin bridges are trapped at the cleavage plane. LEM-3 locally processes chromatin bridges that arise from incomplete DNA replication, unresolved recombination intermediates, or the perturbance of chromosome structure. Proper LEM-3 midbody localization and function is regulated by AIR-2/Aurora B kinase. Strikingly, LEM-3 acts cooperatively with the BRC-1/BRCA1 homologous recombination factor to promote genome integrity. These findings provide a molecular basis for the suspected role of the LEM-3 orthologue Ankle1 in human breast cancer.

Molecular indexing of human genomic DNA.

Project description:Molecular indexing sorts DNA fragments into subsets for inter-sample comparisons. Type IIS or interrupted palindrome restriction endonucleases, which result in single-stranded ends not including the original recognition sequence of the enzyme, are used to produce the fragments. The ends can then be any sequence but will always be specific for a given fragment. Fragments with particular ends are selected by ligation to a corresponding indexing adapter. We describe iterative indexing, a new process that after an initial round of indexing uses a Type IIS restriction endonuclease to expose additional sequence for further indexing. New plasmids, pINDnn, were produced for novel use as indexing adapters. Together, the plasmids index all 16 possible dinucleotides. Their large size can be increased by dimerisation in vitro and allows the isolation of indexed material by size separation. Fragments produced from human genomic DNA by Type II restriction endonucleases were sorted using six bases in total to a possible enrichment of 1920-fold. By comparison with the public human sequence databases, fidelity of indexing was shown to be high and was tolerant of repetitive sequences. Genome-wide comparisons on a candidate or non-candidate basis are made possible by this approach.

Ectopically tethered CP190 induces large-scale chromatin decondensation.

Project description:Insulator mediated alteration in higher-order chromatin and/or nucleosome organization is an important aspect of epigenetic gene regulation. Recent studies have suggested a key role for CP190 in such processes. In this study, we analysed the effects of ectopically tethered insulator factors on chromatin structure and found that CP190 induces large-scale decondensation when targeted to a condensed lacO array in mammalian and Drosophila cells. In contrast, dCTCF alone, is unable to cause such a decondensation, however, when CP190 is present, dCTCF recruits it to the lacO array and mediates chromatin unfolding. The CP190 induced opening of chromatin may not be correlated with transcriptional activation, as binding of CP190 does not enhance luciferase activity in reporter assays. We propose that CP190 may mediate histone modification and chromatin remodelling activity to induce an open chromatin state by its direct recruitment or targeting by a DNA binding factor such as dCTCF.
