Multiplexed single-cell profiling of chromatin states at genomic loci by expansion microscopy

ABSTRACT: Proper regulation of genome architecture and activity is essential for the development and function of multicellular organisms. Histone modifications, acting in combination, specify these activity states at individual genomic loci. However, the methods used to study these modifications often require either a large number of cells or are limited to targeting one histone mark at a time. Here, we developed a new method called Single Cell Evaluation of Post-TRanslational Epigenetic Encoding (SCEPTRE) that uses Expansion Microscopy (ExM) to visualize and quantify multiple histone modifications at non-repetitive genomic regions in single cells at a spatial resolution of ∼75 nm. Using SCEPTRE, we distinguished multiple histone modifications at a single housekeeping gene, quantified histone modification levels at multiple developmentally-regulated genes in individual cells, and evaluated the relationship between histone modifications and RNA polymerase II loading at individual loci. We find extensive variability in epigenetic states between individual gene loci hidden from current population-averaged measurements. These findings establish SCEPTRE as a new technique for multiplexed detection of combinatorial chromatin states at single genomic loci in single cells.

Characterizing cellular heterogeneity in chromatin state with scCUT&Tag-pro

Project description:New technologies that profile chromatin modifications at single-cell resolution offer enormous promise for functional genomic characterization. However, the sparsity of these measurements and the challenge of integrating multiple binding maps represent significant challenges. Here we introduce scCUT&Tag-pro, a multimodal assay for profiling protein-DNA interactions coupled with the abundance of surface proteins in single cells. In addition, we introduce scChromHMM, which integrates data from multiple experiments to infer and annotate chromatin states based on combinatorial histone modification patterns. We apply these tools to perform an integrated analysis across nine different molecular modalities in circulating human immune cells. We demonstrate how these two approaches can characterize dynamic changes in the function of individual genomic elements across both discrete cell states and continuous developmental trajectories, nominate associated motifs and regulators that establish chromatin states, and identify extensive and cell type-specific regulatory priming. Finally, we demonstrate how our integrated reference can serve as a scaffold to map and improve the interpretation of additional scCUT&Tag datasets.

Combinatorial single-cell profiling of major chromatin types with MAbID

Project description:Gene expression programs result from the collective activity of numerous regulatory factors. Studying their cooperative mode of action is imperative to understand gene regulation, but simultaneously measuring these factors within one sample has been challenging. Here, we introduce MAbID, a method for combinatorial genomic profiling of histone modifications and chromatin-binding proteins. MAbID employs antibody-DNA conjugates to insert genomic barcodes at sites of epitope occupancy, enabling combined incubation of multiple antibodies to reveal the genomic distributions of many epigenetic markers simultaneously. We used MAbID to profile all major chromatin types and multiplexed measurements without loss of individual data quality. Moreover, we obtained joint measurements of six epitopes in single cells of mouse bone marrow and during mouse in vitro differentiation, capturing associated changes in multifactorial chromatin states. Thus, MAbID holds the potential to gain unique insights into the interplay between gene regulatory mechanisms, especially for low-input samples and in single cells.

scChIX-seq infers dynamic relationships between histone modifications in single cells

Project description:Regulation of chromatin states involves the dynamic interplay between different histone modifications to control gene expression. Recent advances have enabled mapping of histone marks in single cells, but most methods are constrained to profile only one histone mark per cell. Here we present an integrated experimental and computational framework, scChIX-seq (single-cell chromatin immunocleavage and unmixing), to map multiple histone marks in single cells. scChIX-seq multiplexes two histone marks together in single cells, then computationally deconvolves the signal using training data from respective histone mark profiles. This framework learns the cell type-specific correlation structure between histone marks, and therefore does not require a priori assumptions of their genomic distributions. Using scChIX-seq, we demonstrate multimodal analysis of histone marks in single cells across a range of mark combinations: two repressive marks, two active marks, and an active plus a repressive mark. In mouse gastrulation, we find that cell type-specific regulation in active chromatin can be accompanied by stable heterochromatin landscapes that are shared across cell types. Applying scChIX-seq to two active marks during macrophage differentiation, we find H3K4me1 dynamics preceding H3K36me3. Modeling these dynamics enables integrated analysis of chromatin velocity during differentiation. Overall, scChIX-seq unlocks systematic interrogation of the interplay between histone modifications in single cells.

Single-nucleosome mapping of histone modifications in S. cerevisiae

Project description:We have used a high-resolution tiled microarray, with single-nucleosome resolution, to investigate the in vivo occurrence of combinations of 12 histone modifications on thousands of nucleosomes in actively growing S. cerevisiae. We found that histone modifications do not occur independently; there are roughly two groups of co-occurring modifications. We find no evidence for a deterministic code of many discrete states, but instead see blended, continuous patterns that distinguish nucleosomes at one location (promoter nucleosomes, for example) from those at another location (over the 3’ ends of coding regions, for example). These results are consistent with the idea of a simple, redundant histone code, in which multiple modifications share the same role. Keywords: ChIP-chip

Nanobody-tethered transposition enables multifactorial chromatin profiling at single-cell resolution

Project description:Chromatin states are functionally defined by a complex combination of histone modifications, transcription factor binding, DNA accessibility, and other factors. However, most current single-cell-resolution methods are unable to measure more than one aspect of chromatin state in a single experiment, limiting our ability to accurately measure chromatin states. Here, we introduce nanobody-tethered transposition followed by sequencing (NTT-seq), a new assay capable of measuring the genome-wide presence of multiple histone modifications and protein-DNA binding sites at single-cell resolution. NTT-seq utilizes recombinant Tn5 transposase fused to a set of secondary nanobodies (nb). Each nb-Tn5 fusion protein specifically binds to different immunoglobulin-G antibodies, enabling a mixture of primary antibodies binding different epitopes to be used in a single experiment. We apply bulk- and single-cell NTT-seq to generate high-resolution multimodal maps of chromatin states in cell culture and cells of the human immune system, demonstrating the high accuracy and sensitivity of the method. We further extend NTT-seq to enable simultaneous profiling of cell-surface protein expression alongside multimodal chromatin states to study cells of the immune system.

H3K4 tri-methylation provides an epigenetic signature of active enhancers

Project description:Combinations of post-translational histone modifications shape the chromatin landscape during cell development in eukaryotes. However, little is known about the modifications exactly delineating functionally engaged regulatory elements. For example, although histone H3 lysine 4 mono-methylation (H3K4me1) indicates the presence of transcriptional gene enhancers, it does not provide clear-cut information about their actual position and stage-specific activity. Histone marks were, therefore, studied here at genomic loci differentially expressed in early stages of T-lymphocyte development. The concomitant presence of the three H3K4 methylation states (H3K4me1/2/3) was found to clearly reflect the activity of bona fide T-cell gene enhancers. Globally, gain or loss of H3K4me2/3 at distal genomic regions correlated with, respectively, the induction or the repression of associated genes during T-cell development. In the Tcrb gene enhancer, the H3K4me3-to-H3K4me1 ratio decreases with the enhancer’s strength. Lastly, enhancer association of RNA-polymerase II (Pol II) correlated with the presence of H3K4me3 and Pol II accumulation resulted in local increase of H3K4me3. Our results suggest the existence of functional links between Pol II occupancy, H3K4me3 enrichment and enhancer activity. ChIP-seq for H3K4me1, H3K4me3 and Pol II was performed from DRag thymocytes or DRag thymocytes from CD3 stimulated mice

Effect of genomic and cellular environments on gene expression noise

Project description:Individual cells from isogenic populations often display large cell-to-cell differences in gene expression. This “noise” in expression derives from several sources, including the genomic and cellular environment in which a gene resides. Large-scale maps of genomic environments have revealed the effects of epigenetic modifications and transcription factor occupancy on mean expression levels, but leveraging such maps to explain expression noise will require new methods to assay how expression noise changes at locations across the genome.To address this gap, we present Single-cell Analysis of Reporter Gene Expression Noise and Transcriptome (SARGENT), a method that simultaneously measures the noisiness of reporter genes integrated throughout the genome and the global mRNA profiles of individual reporter-gene-containing cells. Using SARGENT, we perform the first comprehensive genome-wide survey of how genomic locations impact gene expression noise. We find that the mean and noise of expression correlate with different histone modifications. We quantify the intrinsic and extrinsic components of reporter gene noise and, using the associated mRNA profiles, assign the extrinsic component to differences between the CD24+ “stem-like” sub-state and the more “differentiated” sub-state. SARGENT also reveals the effects of transgene integrations on endogenous gene expression, which will help guide the search for “safe-harbor” loci.

Genetic and Epigenetic Fine Mapping of Complex Trait Associated Loci in the Human Liver

Project description:Deciphering the impact of genetic variation on gene regulation is fundamental to understanding common, complex human diseases. In this study, we obtained genome-wide RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq (for H3K4me3 and H3K27ac histone modifications) data in the human liver. We mapped quantitative trait loci (QTLs) of gene expression levels and histone modification states. We integrated our findings with summary statistics of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and identified candidate genes, gene regulatory regions, and variants in GWAS loci.
