The dynamic reprogramming of H3K9me3 at hominoid-specific retrotransposons during early human development

ABSTRACT: Reprogramming of H3K9me3-dependent heterochromatin is required for early development. How H3K9me3 is involved in early human development is, however, largely unclear. Here, we resolve the temporal landscape of H3K9me3 during human preimplantation development and its regulation for diverse hominoid-specific retrotransposons. At the 8-cell stage, H3K9me3 reprogramming at hominoid-specific retrotransposons termed SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA) facilitates interaction between certain promoters and SVA-derived enhancers, facilitating the zygotic genome activation. In trophectoderm, de novo H3K9me3 domains prohibit pluripotent transcription factors from binding on hominoid-specific retrotransposons-derived regulatory elements for inner cell mass (ICM)-specific genes. H3K9me3 re-establishment at SVA elements in ICM is associated with higher transcription of DNA damage repair genes, compared to naïve human pluripotent stem cells. Our data demonstrate that species-specific reorganization of H3K9me3-dependent heterochromatin at hominoid-specific retrotransposons plays important roles during early human development, shedding light on how the epigenetic regulatory network for early development has evolved in mammals.

Mini-heterochromatin domains constrain the cis-regulatory impact of SVA transposons in human brain development and disease

Project description:SVA retrotransposons remain active in humans and contribute to individual genetic variation. Polymorphic SVA alleles harbor gene-regulatory potential and can cause genetic disease. However, how SVA insertions are controlled and functionally impact human disease is unknown. Here, we dissect the epigenetic regulation and influence of SVAs in cellular models of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP), a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an SVA insertion at the TAF1 locus. We demonstrate that the KRAB zinc finger protein ZNF91 establishes H3K9me3 and DNA methylation over SVAs, including polymorphic alleles, in human neural progenitor cells. The resulting mini-heterochromatin domains attenuate the cis-regulatory impact of SVAs. This is critical for XDP pathology; removal of local heterochromatin severely aggravates the XDP molecular phenotype, resulting in increased TAF1 intron retention and reduced expression. Our results provide unique mechanistic insights into how human polymorphic transposon insertions are recognized, and their regulatory impact constrained by an innate epigenetic defense system.

SMARCAD1 and TOPBP1 contribute to heterochromatin maintenance at the transition from the 2C-like to the pluripotent state

Project description:Chromocenters are established after the 2-cell (2C) stage during mouse embryonic development, but the factors that mediate chromocenter formation remain largely unknown. To identify regulators of 2C heterochromatin establishment, we generated an inducible system to convert embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to 2C-like cells. This conversion is marked by a global reorganization and dispersion of H3K9me3-heterochromatin foci, which are then reversibly formed upon re-entry into pluripotency. Profiling the chromatin-bound proteome (chromatome) by genome capture of ESCs transitioning to 2C-like cells, we uncover chromatin regulators involved in de novo heterochromatin formation. We identified TOPBP1 and investigated its binding partner SMARCAD1. SMARCAD1 and TOPBP1 associate with H3K9me3-heterochromatin in ESCs. Interestingly, the nuclear localization of SMARCAD1 is lost in 2C-like cells. SMARCAD1 or TOPBP1 depletion in mouse embryos lead to developmental arrest, reduction of H3K9me3 and remodeling of heterochromatin foci. Collectively, our findings contribute to comprehending the maintenance of chromocenters during early development.

The HUSH complex cooperates with TRIM28 to repress young retrotransposons and new genes

Project description:Retrotransposons encompass half of the human genome and contribute to the formation of heterochromatin, which provides nuclear structure and regulates gene expression. Here, we asked if the human silencing hub (HUSH) complex is necessary to silence retrotransposons and whether it collaborates with TRIM28 and the chromatin remodeler ATRX at specific genomic loci. We show that the HUSH complex contributes to de novo repression and DNA methylation of a SVA retrotransposon reporter. By using naïve vs. primed mouse pluripotent stem cells, we reveal a critical role for the HUSH complex in naïve cells, implicating it in programming epigenetic marks in development. While the HUSH component TASOR binds to endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) and L1s, it is mainly required to repress evolutionarily young L1s. TRIM28, in contrast, is necessary to repress both ERVs and young L1s. Genes co-repressed by TRIM28 and TASOR are evolutionarily young, or exhibit tissue-specific expression, are enriched in young L1s and display evidence for regulation through LTR promoters. Finally, we demonstrate that the HUSH complex is also required to repress L1 elements in human cells. Overall, these data indicate that the HUSH complex and TRIM28 co-repress young retrotransposons and new genes rewired by retrotransposon non-coding DNA.

G-quadruplexes within the SVA retrotransposon modulate TAF1 gene expression in X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism [RNA-Seq]

Project description:X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is an inherited neurodegenerative disease characterized by the antisense insertion of an SVA retrotransposon into the TAF1 gene, encoding for the largest subunit of the basal transcription factor TFIID, which is essential for RNA polymerase II activity. This SVA insertion has been associated with altered TAF1 expression levels, but the cause of this outcome and its link to the development of XDP remain unknown. Unique to the XDP SVA compared to other SVA retrotransposons in the human genome is the amplification of the (GGGAGA)n repeat domain, creating a unique G4-prone region, whose length correlates with age at onset and disease severity. By ChIP-seq and ChIP-qPCR with the anti-G4 antibody BG4, we assessed that G4s are present in the folded state in the XDP SVA of these cells. Using available G4 ligands, we demonstrated that stabilization of the XDP SVA G4s reduces TAF1 transcripts in the exons around and downstream of the SVA, while increasing the transcription of the upstream exons, possibly through a positive feedback loop.

Chromatin dynamics and genome-wide profiling of repetitive elements during early mammalian embryogenesis.

Project description:We have used repetitive elements, including retrotransposons, as model loci to address how and when heterochromatin forms during development. High throughput RNA-sequencing using a Nano-CAGE protocol throughout early embryogenesis revealed that the expression of repetitive elements is abundant in embryonic cells, highly dynamic and stage-specific, with most repetitive elements becoming repressed before implantation. Furthermore, we show that Line L1 elements and IAP retrotransposons become reactivated from both parental genomes in mouse embryos after fertilisation, indicating an open chromatin configuration at the beginning of development. Our data show that the reprogramming process that follows fertilisation is accompanied by a robust transcriptional activation of retrotransposons and suggests that expression of repetitive elements is initially regulated through an RNA-dependent mechanism in mammals.

Loss of H3K9me3 heterochromatin at protein coding genes enables developmental lineage specification (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:Domains of transcriptionally repressed heterochromatin, decorated by histone 3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3), are reduced in embryonic stem cells compared to fully differentiated cells. However, the establishment and dynamics of closed regions of chromatin at protein coding genes, in natural embryologic development, has not been described. We developed a novel, antibody-independent method to isolate and map compacted heterochromatin from low cell number samples. Unexpectedly, we uncovered extensive high levels of H3K9me3-decorated, compacted heterochromatin at protein coding genes in early, uncommitted cells in the three germ layers, undergoing profound rearrangements and reduction upon differentiation, concomitant with cell type-specific gene expression. Perturbation of the three H3K9me3-related methyltransferases revealed that H3K9me3 heterochromatin is required to maintain cell lineage fidelity. We propose a key role for chromatin-based restriction of gene activity via H3K9me3 during embryologic development
