MyoD induced enhancer RNA interacts with hnRNPL protein via CAAA motif to activate target gene transcription during myogenic differentiation [GRO-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Evidence of widespread transcription at active enhancers became apparent. However, our understanding about the functions of enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) and their mechanistic roles remains incomplete. Here, we study eRNA regulation and function using skeletal myoblast differentiation as a paradigm. We provide a panoramic view of enhancer transcription and uncover reprogramming in enhancer transcription occurring during myogenic differentiation. We demonstrate the critical role of MyoD in activating eRNAs production. Results from in depth dissection of two eRNAs transcribed from super enhancers (seRNA-1 and -2) suggest that seRNAs can promote myogenic differentiation in vitro and in vivo; the induction of the seRNAs is in coordination with the activation of the neighboring genes and seRNA loss largely impairs their expression. Mechanistically, we elucidate these seRNAs specifically bind to heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L (hnRNPL) and modulate hnRNPL binding to the target promoter. A CAAA tract on the seRNA was identified to be essential in mediating the interaction between seRNA-1 and hnRNPL. Disruption of seRNA-hnRNPL interaction attenuates Pol II and H3K36me3 deposition at the target genes, in coincidence with the reduction of their expression. Furthermore, analyses of hnRNPL binding transcriptome-wide reveals its association with eRNAs is a general phenomenon in multiple cells. Collectively, we propose that eRNA-hnRNPL interaction contributes to target mRNA activation.

eRNAs Promote Transcription by Establishing Chromatin Accessibility at Defined Genomic Loci

Project description:Transcription factors and DNA regulatory binding motifs are fundamental components of the gene regulatory network (GRN). Here, by using genome-wide occupancy profiling of master regulators of MyoGenesis (MyoD and MyoGenin), we show their extensive occupancy in the extragenic enhancer regions coinciding with RNA synthesis (i.e. eRNA). In particular, multiple regions coding for eRNAs were observed within regulatory region of MYOD1, including previously characterized Distal Regulatory Regions (DRR) and Core Enhancer (CE). While CERNA enhanced RNA polymerase II (PolII) occupancy and transcription at MYOD1, DRRRNA acted in trans to activate the downstream MyoGenic GRN. The deployment of transcriptional machinery to appropriate loci is contingent on chromatin accessibility, a rate-limiting step preceding PolII assembly. By nuclease sensitivity assay, we show that eRNAs increase genomic access to the transcriptional complex at defined regulatory regions. In conclusion, our data suggest eRNAs establish a cell-type-specific transcriptional circuitry by directing chromatin-remodeling events. Examination of MyoD and MyoG binding events and production of RNA at the enhancer sites during myogenic differentiation. We performed RNAi against enhancer-derived RNA (DRRi) which resulted in reduction of chromatin accessiblity and RNA polymerase II occupancy at defined regulatory elements. In complementary experiments, overexpression of DRR-RNA (pHAN_DRR1.2) resulted in early activation of MyoG. GFPi and GFP overexpression (pHAN_GFP) were used as control in these experiments, respectively.

Rev-Erbs repress macrophage gene expression by inhibiting enhancer-directed transcription

Project description:Rev-Erba and Rev-Erbb are nuclear receptors that regulate the expression of genes involved in the control of circadian rhythm, metabolism, and inflammatory responses. Rev-Erbs function as transcriptional repressors by recruiting NCoR/HDAC3 co-repressor complexes to Rev-Erb response elements in enhancers and promoters of target genes, but the molecular basis for cell-specific programs of repression is not known. Here, we present evidence that in macrophages, Rev-Erbs regulate target gene expression by inhibiting the functions of distal enhancers that are selected by macrophage lineage-determining factors, thereby establishing a macrophage-specific program of repression. Remarkably, the repressive functions of Rev-Erbs are associated with their ability to inhibit the transcription of enhancer-derived RNAs (eRNAs). Furthermore, targeted degradation of eRNAs at two enhancers subject to negative regulation by Rev-Erbs resulted in reduced expression of nearby mRNAs, implying a direct role of these eRNAs in enhancer function. By precisely defining eRNA start sites using a method that quantifies nascent 5' ends (5'-GRO-Seq), we show that transfer of full enhancer activity to a target promoter requires both the sequences mediating transcription factor binding and the specific sequences encoding the eRNA transcript. These studies provide evidence for direct roles of eRNAs in contributing to enhancer functions and suggest that Rev-Erbs act to suppress gene expression at a distance by repressing eRNA transcription. Using ChIPseq, GRO-seq, and 5'GRO-seq to determine mechanism of RevErb in transcriptional regulation in macrophages

Functional Importance of eRNAs for Estrogen-dependent Gene Transcriptional Activation

Project description:The functional importance of gene enhancers in regulated gene expression is well established. In addition to widespread transcription of long non-coding RNA (ncRNA) transcripts in mammalian cells, bidirectional ncRNAs referred to as eRNAs are present on enhancers. However, it has remained unclear whether these eRNAs are functional, or merely a reflection of enhancer activation. Here, we report that 17 ?-estradiol (E2)-bound estrogen receptor alpha (ER?) on enhancers causes a global increase in eRNA transcription on enhancers adjacent to E2 upregulated coding genes. These induced eRNAs, as functional transcripts, appear to exert important roles for the observed ligand-dependent induction of target coding genes, causing an increased strength of specific enhancer:promoter looping initiated by ER? binding. Cohesin, present on many ER?-regulated enhancers even prior to ligand treatment, apparently contributes to E2-dependent gene activation by stabilizing E2/ER?/eRNA-induced enhancer:promoter looping. Our data indicate that eRNAs are likely to exert important functions in many regulated programs of gene transcription. The ChIP-seqs in this study measure the binding landscape of master transcription regulator of estrogen signaling - ER?, together with common histone marks including H3K27ac and H3K4me1 in MCF7 cells. These data serve as the basis to understand the enhancer map and subsequent analysis of eRNA expression using GRO-seq. The GRO-seq measures the trancription of nascent RNAs in the genome. From MCF7 cells treated with veichle or estrodial, we could identify estrogen-regulated eRNAs and subsequently could study their functions.

Dynamic landscape of enhancer-derived RNA during mouse early embryo development

Project description:Enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) play critical roles in diverse biological processes by mediating the activation of their target genes. However, the systematic landscape and potential regulations and functions of eRNAs during mammalian early embryo development remains elusive. Here, we present the comprehensive detection and characterization of eRNAs during mouse early embryo development. We demonstrated the spatiotemporal and allelic landscape of eRNA expression. We found the asymmetric activation of paternal-specific eRNAs during zygotic genome activation (ZGA). We identified TFs and their cooperation in regulating dynamic eRNA expression. eRNA are involved in multiple developmental signaling pathways through putatively regulating their target genes. Interestingly, we observed that the transcriptions of enhancers themselves are also widely modulated by eRNAs during mouse early embryo development. Critically, we de novo identified a novel eRNA transcribed from a super-enhancer region exclusively expressed at 2-cell stage of mouse early embryos and experimentally validated its key functional role in regulating ZGA and early embryo development.

Assessing eRNAs associated with a cytokine-sensing mammary super-enhancer

Project description:Enhancers are transcription factor platforms that also bind RNA polymerase II and generate enhancer RNAs (eRNA). Although eRNAs have been suggested as predictors of enhancer activities and possibly key components facilitating transcription, there is little genetic evidence to support this. We address the biology of eRNAs in vivo and investigate eRNA patterns, expression levels and possible functions within a mammary-specific super-enhancer that is composed of three units with distinct transcriptional capacities. We show that eRNA levels do not correspond with the activities of their respective enhancer units. However, changes in eRNA expression upon deletion of individual enhancer units reflect the change in overall super-enhancer activity. These data provide genetic evidence that eRNA levels are not a reliable readout of individual enhancers, but they predict superenhancer activity in the absence of constituent elements.
