Interplay between H2A.Z and epigenome in PANC-1

ABSTRACT: The oncogenic process is regulated by a complex network of different regulatory elements in charge of regulate the cancer epigenome. The histone variant H2A.Z is involved in the regulation of different regulatory elements such as promoters and enhancers in different types of cancer, however, the interplay between the H2A.Z and the cancer epigenome is poorly understood. Here, we investigate the functional role of H2A.Z at promoters, enhancers, super enhancers and topologically associating domains in the pancreatic cancer cell line PANC-1. We found an oncogenic role of H2A.Z regulated by acetylation and deacetylation as well as the potential interactions with epigenetic regulators such as EZH2 and CTCF. Specifically, we found that the presence of H2A.Z facilitates the recruitment of RNA polymerase II and other transcription factors such as ZNF384 at promoters, enhancers and super enhancers, allowing the gene expression. On the other hand, the absence of acetylation is associated with an enrichment of EZH2 allowing transcriptional repression of transcription factors associated with cancer development. Also, we identified that H2A.Z is a component of the TAD boundaries in PANC-1, and its enrichment is associated with the presence of transcription factors such as CTCF, ZNF143 and ZNF384. Together, these data show new mechanisms associated with the interplay between H2A.Z and the epigenome in pancreatic cancer.

Mediator complex interaction partners organize the transcriptional network that defines neural stem cells

Project description:Mediator complex regulates transcription by connecting enhancers to promoters. High Mediator binding density defines super enhancers, which regulate cell-identity genes and oncogenes. Protein interactions of Mediator may explain its role in these processes but have not been identified comprehensively. Here we purify Mediator from neural stem cells (NSCs) and identify 75 protein-protein interaction partners. We identify super enhancers in NSCs and show that Mediator-interacting chromatin modifiers colocalise with Mediator at enhancers and super enhancers. Transcription factor families with high affinity for Mediator dominate enhancers and super enhancers and can explain genome-wide Mediator localization. We identify E-box transcription factor Tcf4 as a key regulator of NSCs. Tcf4 interacts with Mediator, colocalises with Mediator at super enhancers and regulates neurogenic transcription factor genes with super enhancers and broad H3K4me3 domains. Our data suggest that high binding-affinity for Mediator is an important organizing feature in the transcriptional network that determines NSC identity.

The histone variant H2A.Z is an important regulator of enhancer activity.

Project description:Gene regulatory programs in different cell types are largely defined through cell-specific enhancers activity. The histone variant H2A.Z has been shown to play important roles in transcription mainly by controlling proximal promoters, but its effect on enhancer functions remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate by genome-wide approaches that H2A.Z is present at a subset of active enhancers bound by the estrogen receptor alpha (ERα). We also determine that H2A.Z does not influence the local nucleosome positioning around ERα-enhancers using ChIP-sequencing at nucleosomal resolution and unsupervised pattern discovery. We further highlight that H2A.Z-enriched enhancers are associated with chromatin accessibility, H3K122ac enrichment and hypomethylated DNA. Moreover, upon estrogen stimulation, the enhancers occupied by H2A.Z produce enhancer RNAs (eRNAs), and recruit RNA polymerase II as well as RAD21, a member of the cohesin complex involved in chromatin interactions between enhancers and promoters. Importantly, their recruitment and eRNAs production are abolished by H2A.Z depletion, thereby revealing a novel functional link between H2A.Z occupancy and enhancer activity. Taken together, our findings suggest that H2A.Z acts as an important player for enhancer functions by establishing and maintaining a chromatin environment required for RNA polymerase II recruitment, eRNAs transcription and enhancer-promoters interactions, all essential attributes of enhancer activity. The MNase ChIP-seqs in this study measure the genome-wide binding landscape of H2A.Z, H3K4me1, H3K27ac and H3K4me3 in MCF-7 cells in the absence or presence of E2. Two biological replicates were done for each ChIP-seq experiment and for each condition, as well as, control input.

H2A.Z landscapes and dual modifications in pluripotent and multipotent stem cells underlie complex genome regulatory functions

Project description:The histone variant H2A.Z has been implicated in nucleosome exchange, transcriptional activation and Polycomb repression. However, the relationships among these seemingly disparate functions remain obscure. We mapped H2A.Z genome-wide in mammalian ES cells and neural progenitors. H2A.Z is deposited promiscuously at promoters and enhancers, and correlates strongly with H3K4 methylation. Accordingly, H2A.Z is present at poised promoters with bivalent chromatin and at active promoters with H3K4 methylation, but is absent from stably repressed promoters that are specifically enriched for H3K27 trimethylation. We also characterized post-translational modification states of H2A.Z, including a novel species dually-modified by ubiquitination and acetylation that is enriched at bivalent chromatin. Our findings associate H2A.Z with functionally distinct genomic elements, and suggest that post-translational modifications may reconcile its contrasting locations and roles.

Epigenetic regulation of FLT3 by ZNF384-fusion protein

Project description:Profiling global gene expression in large ALL cohorts, we identified unique over-expression of FLT3 in ZNF384-rearranged ALL, consistently across cases harboring different fusion partners with ZNF384. Mechanistically, we discovered an intergenic enhancer element at the FLT3 locus that is exclusively activated in ZNF384-rearranged ALL, with the enhancer-promoter looping directly mediated by the fusion protein. There was also a striking global enrichment of active enhancers within ZNF384 binding sites across the genome in ZNF384-rearranged ALL cells.

H2A.Z.1 mono-ubiquitylation antagonizes BRD2 to maintain poised chromatin in ESCs

Project description:Surface LE, Fields PA, Subramanian V, Behmer R, Udeshi N, Peach SE, Jaffe JD, Boyer LA. Cell Reports. 2015. Histone variant H2A.Z occupies the promoters of active and poised, bivalent genes in ESCs to regulate developmental programs, yet how it contributes to these contrasting states is poorly understood. Here, we investigate the function of H2A.Z.1 mono-ubiquitylation (H2A.Z.1ub) by mutation of the PRC1 target residues (H2A.Z.1K3R3). We show that H2A.Z.1K3R3 is properly incorporated at target promoters in murine ESCs (mESCs), however, loss of mono- ubiquitylation leads to de-repression of bivalent genes, loss of Polycomb binding, and to faulty lineage commitment. Using quantitative proteomics, we find that tandem bromodomain proteins, including the BET family member Brd2, are enriched in H2A.Z.1 chromatin. We further show that Brd2 is gained at de-repressed promoters in H2A.Z.1K3R3 mESCs whereas Brd2 inhibition restores gene silencing at these sites. Together, our study reveals an antagonistic relationship between H2A.Z.1ub and Brd2 to regulate the transcriptional balance at bivalent genes to enable proper execution of developmental programs.

Chromatin interactions involving super-enhancers associate with specific expression patterns of target genes

Project description:Super-enhancers may regulate target genes through chromatin looping. We connected super-enhancers in the K562 chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line with chromatin interactions identified from Chromatin Interaction Analysis with Paired-End Tag (ChIA-PET) data. Gene expression at proximal elements that are connected with distal super-enhancers showed significantly higher cell-type specificity than at proximal elements connected with other elements or not involved in interaction. 4C and Episwitch analysis of chromatin interactions showed that certain chromatin interactions are cell-specific, but others are more general. While super-enhancers upstream of c-MYC at the MYC-335 element can be found in other cancers, only super-enhancers downstream of c-MYC can be found in K562. 4C analysis of the c-MYC promoter revealed no chromatin interactions that are directed upstream of c-MYC, but only downstream of c-MYC, in the PVT1 long non-coding RNA gene. Cell-specific usage of super-enhancers could explain why the MYC-335 element that is associated with many solid cancers such as colorectal cancer and breast cancer, but not with leukemia. Surprisingly, we found that a chromatin interaction between c-MYC and a c-MYC super-enhancer is lost in chronic myelogenous leukemia patient blood as compared with blood from individuals without the disease through Oxford Biodynamicsâ?? Episwitch analysis. These results provide evidence for fine-tuning of expression patterns, such as cell-specific regulation of target genes by distal super-enhancers through chromatin interactions and an association between chromatin interactions and disease, and highlight that super-enhancers are more complex than previously described.

Transcriptional super-enhancers connected to cell identity and disease

Project description:Super-enhancers are large clusters of transcriptional enhancers that drive expression of genes that control and define cell identity. Improved understanding of the roles super-enhancers play in biology would be afforded by knowing the constellation of factors that constitute these domains and by identifying super-enhancers across the spectrum of human cell types. We describe here the population of transcription factors, cofactors, chromatin regulators and core transcription apparatus that occupy super-enhancers in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and evidence that super-enhancers are highly transcribed. We then use epigenomic data to produce a catalogue of super-enhancers in a broad range of human cell types. These super-enhancer domains are associated with genes encoding master transcription factors and other components that play important roles in the biology of these cells. Interestingly, sequence variation associated with a broad spectrum of diseases is especially enriched in the super-enhancers of disease-relevant cell types. Furthermore, we find that cancer cells generate super-enhancers at oncogenes and other genes that play important roles in tumor pathogenesis. We discuss these insights and their implications for future study of human health and disease.
