BAZ2A safeguards genome architecture of ground-state pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: Chromosomes have an intrinsic tendency to segregate into compartments, forming long-distance contacts between loci of similar chromatin states. How genome compartmentalization is regulated remains elusive. Here, comparison of mouse ground-state embryonic stem cells (ESCs) characterized by open and active chromatin, and advanced serum ESCs with a more closed and repressed genome, reveals distinct regulation of their genome organization due to differential dependency on BAZ2A/TIP5, a component of the chromatin remodeling complex NoRC. On ESC chromatin, BAZ2A interacts with SNF2H, DNA topoisomerase 2A (TOP2A) and cohesin. BAZ2A associates with chromatin subdomains within the active A compartment, which intersect through long-range contacts. We found that ground-state chromatin selectively requires BAZ2A to limit the invasion of active domains into repressive compartments. BAZ2A depletion increases chromatin accessibility at B compartments. Furthermore, BAZ2A regulates H3K27me3 genome occupancy in a TOP2A-dependent manner. Finally, ground-state ESCs require BAZ2A for growth, differentiation, and correct expression of developmental genes. Our results uncover the propensity of open chromatin domains to invade repressive domains, which is counteracted by chromatin remodeling to establish genome partitioning and preserve cell identity.

A phase separated active subnuclear compartment safeguards repressive chromatin domains [TSA-seq]

Project description:The nucleus is composed of membrane-less subnuclear compartments, containing intrinsically disordered proteins and RNAs that phase separate (PS) and contribute to specific nuclear reactions. However, whether and how different subnuclear compartments can intercommunicate remains elusive. Here we identified nuclear bodies with PS features composed of BAZ2A, a factor associating with active chromatin. BAZ2A-bodies depend on active transcription, RNAs, and the non-disordered BAZ2A RNA-binding TAM domain. Although BAZ2A and H3K27me3 occupancies anticorrelate in the linear genome, in the nuclear space BAZ2A-bodies contact H3K27me3-bodies. Disruption of BAZ2A-bodies promotes BAZ2A invasion into H3K27me3-domains, causing H3K27me3-bodies loss, H3K27me3 decrease, and gene upregulation. BAZ2A-bodies formation is negatively regulated by the nuclear-speckles associated lncRNA Malat1 that interacts with BAZ2A and mediates BAZ2A association to chromatin at nuclear speckles, which do not contact BAZ2A-bodies. The results unravel how active compartments protect repressive compartments using PS mechanisms that are promoted or impaired according to the type of RNA interactions with RNA-binding proteins.

An RNA-dependent and phase-separated active subnuclear compartment safeguards repressive chromatin domains

Project description:The nucleus is composed of functionally distinct membraneless compartments that undergo phase separation (PS). However, whether different subnuclear compartments are connected remains elusive. We identified a type of nuclear body with PS features composed of BAZ2A that associates with active chromatin. BAZ2A bodies depend on RNA transcription and BAZ2A non-disordered RNA-binding TAM domain. Although BAZ2A and H3K27me3 occupancies anticorrelate in the linear genome, in the nuclear space, BAZ2A bodies contact H3K27me3 bodies. BAZ2A-body disruption promotes BAZ2A invasion into H3K27me3 domains, causing H3K27me3-body loss and gene upregulation. Weak BAZ2A-RNA interactions, such as with nascent transcripts, promote BAZ2A bodies, whereas the strong binder long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) Malat1 impairs them while mediating BAZ2A association to chromatin at nuclear speckles. In addition to unraveling a direct connection between nuclear active and repressive compartments through PS mechanisms, the results also showed that the strength of RNA-protein interactions regulates this process, contributing to nuclear organization and the regulation of chromatin and gene expression.

BAZ2A-RNA dependent association with TOP2A and KDM1A represses gene expression in prostate cancer

Project description:BAZ2A represses rRNA genes (rDNA) that are transcribed by RNA polymerase I. In prostate cancer (PCa), BAZ2A function goes beyond this role because it represses genes frequently silenced in metastatic disease. However, the mechanisms of this BAZ2A-mediated repression remain elusive. Here, we show that BAZ2A represses genes through its RNA-binding TAM domain using mechanisms differing from rDNA silencing. Although the TAM domain mediates BAZ2A recruitment to rDNA, in PCa, this is not required for BAZ2A association with target genes. Instead, the BAZ2A-TAM domain in association with RNA mediates the interaction with topoisomerase 2A (TOP2A) and histone demethylase KDM1A, whose expression positively correlates with BAZ2A levels in localized and metastatic PCa. TOP2A and KDM1A pharmacological inhibition up-regulate BAZ2A-repressed genes that are regulated by inactive enhancers bound by BAZ2A, whereas rRNA genes are not affected. Our findings showed a novel RNA-based mechanism of gene regulation in PCa. Furthermore, we determined that RNA-mediated interactions between BAZ2A and TOP2A and KDM1A repress genes critical to PCa and may prove to be useful to stratify prostate cancer risk and treatment in patients.

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.

PARP1- and CTCF-mediated interactions between active and repressed chromatin at the lamina promote oscillating transcription

Project description:Transcriptionally active and inactive chromatin domains tend to segregate into separate sub-nuclear compartments to maintain stable expression patterns. However, we have uncovered here an inter-chromosomal network connecting active loci enriched in circadian genes to repressed lamina-associated domains (LADs). The interactome is regulated by PARP1 and its co-factor, CTCF, which not only mediate chromatin fiber interactions, but also promote the recruitment of circadian genes to the lamina. Synchronization of circadian rhythm by serum shock induces oscillations in PARP1-CTCF interactions, which is accompanied by oscillating recruitment of circadian loci to the lamina, followed by the acquisition of repressive H3K9me2 marks and transcriptional attenuation. Furthermore, depletion of H3K9me2/3, inhibition of PARP activity by Olaparib or down-regulation of PARP1 or CTCF expression counteracts both recruitment to the envelope and circadian transcription. PARP1- and CTCF-regulated contacts between circadian loci and the repressive chromatin environment at the lamina thus mediate circadian transcriptional plasticity.

Hi-C contact map of the Jurkat T cell genome

Project description:We performed Hi-C on untreated Jurkat T cells growing in culture. We obtained contact maps with a final resolution of 5 kb where Topologically Associated Domains (TADs) are clearly visible. We identified 3D sub-compartments, characterized by enriched Hi-C contacts within themselves compared to contacts with other compartments. Our results suggest that the A compartment, associated with ongoing transcription, consists of two distinct sub-compartments called A1 and A2; and that the B compartment, associated with lack of transcription, consists of three sub-compartments called B1, B2 and B3. Genes in the A1 and A2 compartments are typically expressed at the same level, but chromatin marks associated with transcription, such as H3K4me2 or H3K27ac, are typically more abundant in A1 than in A2. The B1, B2 and B3 sub-compartments correspond to Polycomb, HP1 and lamina-associated chromatin, which were previously identified types of silent chromatin. Overall, these results suggest that spatial neighborhoods of the Jurkat nucleus correspond to homogeneous chromatin types, and that transcriptionally active regions are in fact two distinct types.
