GFI1 tethers the nucleosome-remodeling and histone-deacetylase (NuRD) complex to open and transcriptionally active chromatin in myeloid progenitors

ABSTRACT: Purpose: The goals of this study are to identify sites in genomic DNA that are occupied by GFI1 and the NurD complex, represented by its member the chromodomain helicase CHD4 or by a complex of GFI1 and CHD4 in myeloid precursors cells and to determined the effect on gene expression. Methods: Granulocytic-monocytic precursors (GMPs) as well as pre neutrophils and mature neutrophils were sorted by flow cytometry from murine bone marrow and sujected to RNA-seq and Chromatin-immuno-precipitation and sequencing (ChIP-Seq) and ATAC-seq procedures. Ch-IP seq experiments were done with antibodies against GFI1, CHD4 or different histone H3 modifications as indicated. Results: GFI1 and GFI1/CHD4 complexes occupies both promoter and enhancers of genes that are down or upregulated during the formation of preNeu and matNeu cells from GMPs Conclusions: Myeloid precursors required GFI1 to tether the NuRD complex to a specific set of target genes that are either transcriptionally active or poised to enable their transcriptional regulation during neutrophil differentiation by chromatin remodeling
