Project description:Mammalian chromosomes are folded into intricate hierarchies of interaction domains, within which topologically associating domains (TADs) and CTCF-associated loops partition the physical interactions between regulatory sequences. Current understanding of chromosome folding largely relies on chromosome conformation capture (3C)-based experiments, where chromosomal interactions are detected as ligation products after crosslinking of chromatin. To measure chromosome structure in vivo, quantitatively and without relying on crosslinking and ligation, we have implemented a modified version of damID named damC. DamC combines DNA-methylation based detection of chromosomal interactions with next-generation sequencing and a biophysical model of methylation kinetics. DamC performed in mouse embryonic stem cells provides the first in vivo validation of the existence of TADs and CTCF loops and confirms 3C-based measurements of the scaling of contact probabilities. Combining damC with transposon-mediated genomic engineering shows that new loops can be formed between ectopically introduced and endogenous CTCF sites, which alters the partitioning of physical interactions within TADs. This orthogonal approach to 3C provides the first crosslinking- and ligation-free validation of the existence of key structural features of mammalian chromosomes and provides novel insights into how chromosome structure within TADs can be manipulated.

Project description:HiCAR (Hi-C on accessible regulatory DNA), which is a genome-wide profiling of chromatin accessibility and open chromatin anchored cis-regulatory element (cRE) interactions, identified 28690 calling loops from zebrafish caudal fins at three different time points (0, 1 and 4 day(s) post amputation (dpa)) including 5022 regeneration-responsive loops (17.5%).

Project description:Nuclear proteins bind chromatin to execute and regulate genome-templated processes. While structural and biochemical studies of individual nucleosome interactions have suggested that an acidic patch on the nucleosome disk surface may be a common site for recruitment to chromatin, the pervasiveness of acidic patch binding and whether other nucleosome surface binding hot-spots exist remains unclear. Here, we use nucleosome affinity proteomics with a library of nucleosomes that collectively disrupts all exposed histone surfaces to establish the universal principles of nucleosome binding. We find that the acidic patch and two adjacent surfaces are the primary hot-spots for nucleosome disk binding and are critical for the majority of nucleosome-protein interactions. In contrast, nearly half of the nucleosome disk surface participates only minimally in protein binding. In addition to establishing the fundamental principles of chromatin binding, our screen defines nucleosome surface requirements of nearly 300 nucleosome interacting proteins implicated in diverse nuclear processes including transcription, DNA damage repair, cell cycle regulation, and nuclear architecture. Building from our screen, we demonstrate that the Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome directly binds the acidic patch and elucidate a redundant charge-based mechanism of acidic patch binding by nuclear pore protein ELYS. Overall, our interactome screen illuminates a highly competitive nucleosome binding hub for chromatin-targeted activities and curates a list of nucleosome interacting proteins that will enable mechanistic exploration of many unexpected chromatin-templated nuclear processes.

Project description:The spatiotemporal control of 3D chromatin structure is fundamental for gene regulation, yet it remains challenging to obtain high-resolution chromatin interacting profiles at cis-regulatory elements (CREs) by chromatin conformation capture (3C)-based methods. Here, we describe the redesigned dCas9-based CAPTURE method for multiplexed, high-throughput and high-resolution analysis of locus-specific chromatin interactions. Using C-terminally biotinylated dCas9, endogenous biotin ligase and pooled sgRNAs, the new system enables quantitative analysis of the spatial configuration of a few to hundreds of enhancers or promoters in a single experiment, enabling systematic comparisons across CREs within and between gene clusters. We reveal the hierarchical structure of super-enhancers (SEs) and distinct modes of SE-gene interactions. Multiplexed capture of temporal dynamics of promoter-centric interactions establishes the instructive function of enhancer-promoter looping in transcriptional regulation during lineage differentiation. These applications illustrate the ability of multiplexed CAPTURE for decoding the organizational principles of genome structure and function.

DamC performed in mouse embryonic stem cells provides the first in vivo validation of the existence of TADs and CTCF loops, confirms 3C-based measurements of the scaling of contact probabilities within TADs, and provides evidence that mammalian chromatin in vivo is essentially rigid below 5 kilobases. Combining damC with transposon-mediated genomic engineering shows that new loops can be formed between ectopically introduced and endogenous CTCF sites, which alters the partitioning of physical interactions within TADs. This establishes damC as a crosslinking- and ligation-free framework to measure and modify chromosome interactions combined with a solid theoretical background for rigorous data interpretation. This orthogonal approach to 3C validates the existence of key structural features of mammalian chromosomes and provides novel insights into how chromosome structure within TADs can be manipulated.
