Diverse CGG binding proteins across eukaryotes produced by independent domestications of hAT transposons

ABSTRACT: The human transcription factor (TF) CGGBP1 (“CGG Binding Protein”) is conserved only in amniotes, and is believed to derive from the zf-BED and Hermes transposase DNA-binding domains (DBDs) of a hAT DNA transposon. Here, we examine the DNA binding preferences of a wide variety of metazoan CGGBP1-like TFs with this bipartite domain using PBM experiments. The derived motifs are available at ...

The amniote-conserved DNA-binding domain of CGGBP1 restricts cytosine methylation of transcription factor binding sites in proximal promoters to regulate gene expression (HTS)

Project description:Truncated forms of CGGBP1 with (N-term) or without (C-term) the DNA-binding domain (DBD) have been used to to assay global cytosine methylation. HEK293T cells with endogenous CGGBP1 knocked down were used to over-express truncated forms of CGGBP1 followed by MeDIP-Seq analysis. Genome-wide analyses of cytosine methylation and binding of CGGBP1 DBD show that CGGBP1 restricts cytosine methylation in a manner that depends on its DBD and its DNA-binding. Our findings suggest that CGGBP1 protects transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) from cytosine methylation-associated loss. A superimposition of our results and evolution of CGGBP1 suggests that mitigation of cytosine methylation is majorly achieved by its N-terminal DBD. Our results position CGGBP1 DNA-binding as a major evolutionarily acquired mechanism through which it keeps cytosine methylation under check and regulates TFBS retention.

The amniote-conserved DNA-binding domain of CGGBP1 restricts cytosine methylation of transcription factor binding sites in proximal promoters to regulate gene expression

Project description:Truncated forms of CGGBP1 with (N-term) or without (C-term) the DNA-binding domain (DBD) have been used to to assay global gene expression. HEK293T cells with endogenous CGGBP1 knocked down were used to over-express truncated forms of CGGBP1 followed by RNA extraction and one-coloured global gene expression analysis. The data suggests that while the C-term of CGGBP1 is the major repressor of transcription, just the N-term containing the DBD fails to achieve so. Proximal promoters of CGGBP1-repressed genes, although significantly GC-poor, contain GC-rich transcription factor binding motifs and exhibit base compositions indicative of low C-T transition rates due to targeted prevention of cytosine methylation. Our findings suggest that CGGBP1 protects transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) from cytosine methylation-associated loss and thereby regulates gene expression. By analysing orthologous promoter sequences, we show that protection from cytosine methylation is a function of CGGBP1 progressively acquired during vertebrate evolution.

CGGBP1-dependent CTCF-binding sites restrict ectopic transcription

Project description:CGGBP1-dependent CTCF-binding sites identified in Patel et. al. 2019 [PMID 31547883] serve as barrier elements consistent with asymmetrical levels of H3K9me3 in the flanks and asymmetrical RNA levels at these sites in the genome. In this study we have characterised the function of such CGGBP1-depenedent CTCF binding sites which are usually repeat rich in nature. By cloning one such CTCF-binding site in an episomal system, we have studied the barrier activity of this CGGBP1-dependent CTCF-binding sites in the prsesnce and absence of CGGBP1 in HEK293T cells through various molecular assays and RNA-sequencing. Our results show that these sites act as barrier for the ectopic transcription as the depletion of CGGBP1 lead to starnd-specific bidirectional transcription as a result of loss of barrier activity concomitant with the loss of CTCF-binding. Further, analysing the RNA-seq revealed that weakly transcribed sites are flanked by the CTCF-binding at transcription start and end sites in the presence of CGGBP1. However, CGGBP1 depletion leads to loss of barrier activity maintained by CGGBP1 with dispersed CTCF binding and a loss of transcription restriction. Such CGGBP1-dependent CTCF-binding sites prevents ectopic transcription.

Growth signals employ CGGBP1 to suppress transcription of Alu-SINEs [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Alu SINEs are the most numerous frequently occurring transcription units in our genomes and possess sequence competence for transcription by RNA Pol III. However, through poorly understood mechanisms, the Alu RNA levels are maintained at very low levels in normal somatic cells with obvious benefits of low rates of Alu retrotransposition and energy-economical deployment of RNA Pol III to the tRNA genes which share promoter structure and polymerase requirements with Alu SINEs. Using comparative ChIP sequencing, we unveil that a repeat binding protein, CGGBP1, binds to the transcriptional regulatory regions of Alu SINEs thereby impeding Alu transcription by inhibiting RNA Pol III recruitment. We show that this Alu-silencing depends on growth factor stimulation of cells and subsequent tyrosine phosphorylation of CGGBP1. Importantly, CGGBP1 ensures a sequence-specific discriminative inhibition of RNA Pol III activity at Alu promoters, while sparing the structurally similar tRNA promoters. Our data suggest that CGGBP1 contributes to growth-related transcription by preventing the hijacking of RNA Pol III by Alu SINEs. Examination of one DNA binding protein in two different conditions of treatment.

Diverse Eukaryotic CGG-Binding Proteins Produced by Independent Domestications of hAT Transposons.

Project description:The human transcription factor (TF) CGGBP1 (CGG-binding protein) is conserved only in amniotes and is believed to derive from the zf-BED and Hermes transposase DNA-binding domains (DBDs) of a hAT DNA transposon. Here, we show that sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins with this bipartite domain structure have resulted from dozens of independent hAT domestications in different eukaryotic lineages. CGGBPs display a wide range of sequence specificity, usually including preferences for CGG or CGC trinucleotides, whereas some bind AT-rich motifs. The CGGBPs are almost entirely nonsyntenic, and their protein sequences, DNA-binding motifs, and patterns of presence or absence in genomes are uncharacteristic of ancestry via speciation. At least eight CGGBPs in the coelacanth Latimeria chalumnae bind distinct motifs, and the expression of the corresponding genes varies considerably across tissues, suggesting tissue-restricted function.

CGGBP1 regulates chromatin barrier activity and CTCF occupancy at repeats

Project description:To study the role of CGGBP1 in regulation of CTCF occupancy, we performed CTCF ChIP-seq in HEK293T cells with three different levels of CGGBP1: (i) endogenous levels of CGGBP1 (ii) CGGBP1 knockdown, and (iii) CGGBP1 overexpression. Here, we show that CTCF binds to repeats as well as canonical CTCF-motifs and CGGBP1 determines the CTCF occupancy preference for repeats over canonical CTCF-motif. By combining CTCF ChIP-seq with histone modifications ChIP-seq (for H3K4me3, H3K9me3 and H3K27me3) under conditions of normal or CGGBP1 knockdown, we demonstrate that CTCF binding sites regulated by CGGBP1 correspond to chromatin barrier elements with profound effects on H3K9me3 distribution. In conclusion, these finding shows that CGGBP1 is a regulator of CTCF occupancy and serve as a regulator of barrier functions of CTCF-binding sites.

Pax7 pioneer factor action requires both paired and homeo DNA binding domains [ATAC-seq]

Project description:The pioneer transcription factor Pax7 contains two DNA binding domains (DBD), a paired and a homeo domain. Previous work on Pax7 and the related Pax3 showed that each DBD binds a cognate DNA sequence, thus defining two targets of binding and possibly modalities of action. Genomic targets of Pax7 pioneer action leading to chromatin opening are enriched for composite DNA target sites containing juxtaposed sites for both paired and homeo domains. The present work investigated the implication of the DBDs in pioneer action. We show that the composite sequence is a higher affinity binding site and that efficient binding to this site involves both DBDs of the same Pax7 molecule. This binding is not sensitive to cytosine methylation of the DNA sites consistent with pioneer action within nucleosomal heterochromatin. Introduction of single amino acid mutations in either paired or homeo domain that impair binding to cognate DNA sequences showed that both DBDs must be intact for pioneer action. In contrast, only the paired domain is required for low affinity binding of heterochromatin sites. Thus, Pax7 pioneer action on heterochromatin requires unique protein:DNA interactions that are more complex compared to its simpler DNA binding modalities at accessible enhancer target sites.
