CTCF Functions as an Insulator for Somatic Genes and a Structural Regulator for Pluripotent Genes during Reprogramming [ChIP-seq]


ABSTRACT: CCCTC binding factor (CTCF) has been implicated in mediating chromatin insulation and long-distance interactions between enhancer and promoter. In this study, to study the roles of CTCF in somatic cell reprogramming, we performed RNA-seq, Hi-C, ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq at the specific stage of reprogramming. Through bioinformatics analysis, our data indicated that CTCF promotes enhancer-promoter interactions and chromatin accessibility to regulate the expression of key pluripotency genes; meanwhile, it serves as an insulator to suppress the expression of key somatic genes. Smarca5 loss inhibits CTCF-promoted reprogramming by reversing CTCF insulator activity on MEF-specific genes and leading to incorrect nucleosome positioning adjacent to CTCF binding sites. These findings reveal the dual functions of CTCF as both a structural regulator and insulator in conjunction with a key chromatin remodeler to drive cellular reprogramming towards pluripotency.
