In situ Chromatin Interaction Analysis Using Paired-End Tag Sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Chromatin Interaction Analysis Using Paired-End Tag Sequencing (ChIA-PET) is an established method to map protein-mediated chromatin interactions. A limitation, however, is that it requires a hundred million cells per experiment, which hampers its broad application in biomedical research, particularly in studies in which it is impractical to obtain a large number of cells from rare samples. To reduce the required input cell number while retaining high data quality, we developed an in situ ChIA-PET protocol, which requires as few as 1 million cells. Here, we describe detailed step-by-step procedures for performing in situ ChIA-PET from cultured cells, including both an experimental protocol for sample preparation and data generation and a computational protocol for data processing and visualization using the ChIA-PIPE pipeline. As the protocol significantly simplifies the experimental procedure, reduces ligation noise, and decreases the required input of cells compared to previous versions of ChIA-PET protocols, it can be applied to generate high-resolution chromatin contact maps mediated by various protein factors for a wide range of human and mouse primary cells. © 2021 The Authors.

Project description:This data was generated by ENCODE. If you have questions about the data, contact the submitting laboratory directly (Yijun Ruan mailto:ruanyj@gis.a-star.edu.sg). If you have questions about the Genome Browser track associated with this data, contact ENCODE (mailto:genome@soe.ucsc.edu). This track was produced as part of the ENCODE Project. It shows the locations of protein factor mediated chromatin interactions determined by Chromatin Interaction Analysis with Paired-End Tag (ChIA-PET) data (Fullwood et al., 2010) extracted from five different human cancer cell lines (K562 (chronic myeloid leukemia), HCT116 (colorectal cancer), HeLa-S3 (cervical cancer), MCF-7 (breast cancer), and NB4 (promyelocytic)). A chromatin interaction is defined as the association of two regions of the genome that are far apart in terms of genomic distance, but are spatially proximate to each other in the 3-dimensional cellular nucleus. Additionally, ChIA-PET experiments generate transcription factor binding sites. A binding site is defined as a region of the genome that is highly enriched by specific Chromatin ImmunoPrecipitation (ChIP) against a transcription factor, which indicates that the transcription factor binds specifically to this region. The protein factors displayed in the track include estrogen receptor alpha (ERa), RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), and CCCTC binding factor (CTCF). For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf Chromatin interaction analysis with paired-end tag sequencing (ChIA-PET) is a global de novo high-throughput method for characterizing the 3-dimensional structure of chromatin in the nucleus. In the ChIA-PET protocol, samples were cross-linked and fragmented, then subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation. The DNA fragments that were brought together by the chromatin interactions were then proximity-ligated. During this proximity-ligation step, the half-linkers (created by the fragmentation) containing flanking MmeI sites (type IIS restriction enzymes) were first ligated to the DNA fragments and then ligated to each other to form full linkers. Full linkers bridge either two ends of a self-circularized fragment, or two ends of two different chromatin fragments. The material was then reverse cross-linked, purified and digested with MmeI. MmeI cuts 20 base pairs away from its recognition site. Tag-linker-tag (paired-end tag, PET) constructs were sequenced by ultra-high-throughput methods (Illumina or SOLiD paired-end sequencing). ChIA-PET reads were processed with the ChIA-PET Tool (Li et al., 2010) by the following steps: linker filtering, short reads mapping, PET classification, binding site identification, and interaction cluster identification. The high-confidence binding sites and chromatin interaction clusters were reported. Chromatin interactions identified by ChIA-PET have been validated by 3C, ChIP-3C, 4C and DNA-FISH (Fullwood et al., 2009).

Project description:BackgroundLongan is a tropical/subtropical fruit tree of great economic importance in Southeast Asia. Progress in understanding molecular mechanisms of longan embryogenesis, which is the primary influence on fruit quality and yield, is slowed by lack of transcriptomic and genomic information. Illumina second generation sequencing, which is suitable for generating enormous numbers of transcript sequences that can be used for functional genomic analysis of longan.ResultsIn this study, a longan embryogenic callus (EC) cDNA library was sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq 2000 system. A total of 64,876,258 clean reads comprising 5.84 Gb of nucleotides were assembled into 68,925 unigenes of 448-bp mean length, with unigenes ≥1000 bp accounting for 8.26% of the total. Using BLASTx, 40,634 unigenes were found to have significant similarity with accessions in Nr and Swiss- Prot databases. Of these, 38,845 unigenes were assigned to 43 GO sub-categories and 17,118 unigenes were classified into 25 COG sub-groups. In addition, 17,306 unigenes mapped to 199 KEGG pathways, with the categories of Metabolic pathways, Plant-pathogen interaction, Biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, and Genetic information processing being well represented. Analyses of unigenes ≥1000 bp revealed 328 embryogenesis-related unigenes as well as numerous unigenes expressed in EC associated with functions of reproductive growth, such as flowering, gametophytogenesis, and fertility, and vegetative growth, such as root and shoot growth. Furthermore, 23 unigenes related to embryogenesis and reproductive and vegetative growth were validated by quantitative real time PCR (qPCR) in samples from different stages of longan somatic embryogenesis (SE); their differentially expressions in the various embryogenic cultures indicated their possible roles in longan SE.ConclusionsThe quantity and variety of expressed EC genes identified in this study is sufficient to serve as a global transcriptome dataset for longan EC and to provide more molecular resources for longan functional genomics.
