Project description:X chromosome reactivation (XCR) represents a paradigm to study epigenetic regulation and the reversal of chromatin silencing, although how it is linked to the pluripotency gene regulatory network, pluripotency transcription factors (TFs) and chromatin remodelling processes remains largely unexplained. Several pluripotency TFs have been linked to XCR through binding to the long non-coding RNA gene Xist, but whether other regulatory elements are involved is unclear. Here, we show that reprogramming to iPSCs induces gradual acquisition of chromatin accessibility at specific sites on the inactive X chromosome (Xi) which is subsequently propagated to other regulatory elements including enhancers and promoters. Regions that are genomically closer to day 0 accessible regions become biallelically accessible earlier, than the more distant ones. For distinct categories of chromatin regions that become biallelically accessible at different times, different sets of transcription factor (TF) motifs are enriched, including the pluripotency TFs KLF4 and cMYC. In addition, regions that become bialleliacally accessible earlier also show increased TF pluripotency binding, supporting the link between pluripotency TFs in XCR. To further explore the relationship between pluripotency TFs and XCR, we construct the active Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) during iPSC reprogramming using scRNA-seq and computational analyses. We reveal gene targets of 311 TFs expressed across reprogramming to iPSCs. Using this single-cell regulatory atlas, we show that X-linked genes are preferentially targeted by several pluripotency TFs. Our results suggest a new model where XCR may be coordinated by direct targeting of regulatory elements on the X chromosome by pluripotency TFs, concomitant with step-wise acquisition of chromatin accessibility. Altogether, our results demonstrate how gradual acquisition of a new GRN during reprogramming of cellular identity is linked with dynamic induction of chromatin accessibility and overcomes stable chromatin silencing on the Xi.

Project description:We applied a combinatorial indexing assay, sci-ATAC-seq, to profile genome-wide chromatin accessibility in ~100,000 single cells from 13 adult mouse tissues. We identify 85 distinct patterns of chromatin accessibility, most of which can be assigned to cell types, and ~400,000 differentially accessible elements. We use these data to link regulatory elements to their target genes, to define the transcription factor grammar specifying each cell type, and to discover in vivo correlates of heterogeneity in accessibility within cell types. We develop a technique for mapping single cell gene expression data to single-cell chromatin accessibility data, facilitating the comparison of atlases. By intersecting mouse chromatin accessibility with human genome-wide association summary statistics, we identify cell-type-specific enrichments of the heritability signal for hundreds of complex traits. These data define the in vivo landscape of the regulatory genome for common mammalian cell types at single-cell resolution.

Project description:Transcriptional coregulators and transcription factors (TFs) contain intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) that are critical for their partitioning and function in gene regulation. Canonically, IDRs drive coregulator-TF association by directly promoting multivalent protein-protein interactions. Using a chemical genetic approach, we report an unexpected mechanism by which the IDR of the corepressor LSD1 excludes TF association, acting as a dynamic conformational switch that tunes repression of active cis-regulatory elements. Hydrogen-deuterium exchange shows that the LSD1 IDR interconverts between transient open and closed conformational states, the latter of which inhibits partitioning of the proteins structured domains with TF hubs. This autoinhibitory switch controls leukemic differentiation by modulating repression of active cis-regulatory elements bound by LSD1 and master hematopoietic TFs. Together, these studies unveil that the dynamic crosstalk between opposing structured and unstructured regions is an alternative paradigm by which disordered regions can shape coregulator-transcription factor interactions to control cis-regulatory landscapes and cell fate.

Project description:Estrogen Receptor (ESR1) drives growth in the majority of human breast cancers by binding to regulatory elements and inducing transcription events that promote tumor growth. Differences in enhancer occupancy by ESR1, contribute to the diverse expression profiles and clinical outcome observed in breast cancer patients. GATA3 is an ESR1 co-operating transcription factor mutated in breast tumors, however its genomic properties are not fully defined. In order to investigate the composition of enhancers involved in estrogen-induced transcription and the potential role of GATA3, we performed extensive ChIP-sequencing in unstimulated breast cancer cells and following estrogen treatment. We find that GATA3 is pivotal in mediating enhancer accessibility at regulatory regions involved in ESR1-mediated transcription. GATA3 silencing resulted in a global redistribution of co-factors and active histone marks prior to estrogen stimulation. These global genomic changes altered the ESR1 binding profile that subsequently occurred following estrogen, with events exhibiting both loss and gain in binding affinity, implying a GATA3 mediated re-distribution of ESR1 binding. The GATA3-mediated re-distributed ESR1 profile correlated with changes in gene expression, suggestive of its functionality. Chromatin loops at the TFF locus involving ESR1 bound enhancers occurred independently of ESR1 when GATA3 was silenced, indicating that GATA3, when present on the chromatin, may serve as a licensing factor for estrogen- ESR1 mediated interactions between cis-regulatory elements. Together these experiments suggest that GATA3 directly impacts ESR1 enhancer accessibility and may potentially explain the contribution of mutant-GATA3 in the heterogeneity of ESR1+ breast cancer. GATA and ER binding studied by chromatin immunoprecipitation in breast cancer cell lines, with and without estrogen stimulation and by knocking down GATA

Project description:Chromatin accessibility is a hallmark of active transcription and requires ATP-dependent nucleosome remodeling by Brahma-Associated Factor (BAF). However, the mechanistic link between transcription, nucleosome remodeling, and chromatin accessibility is unclear. Here, we used a chemical-genetic approach to dissect the interplay between RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII), BAF, and DNA-sequence-specific transcription factors (TFs) in mouse embryonic stem cells. By time-resolved chromatin profiling with acute transcription block at distinct stages, we show that RNAPII promoter-proximal pausing stabilizes BAF chromatin occupancy and enhances nucleosome eviction by BAF. We find that RNAPII and BAF probe both transcriptionally active and Polycomb-repressed genomic regions and provide evidence that TFs capture transient site exposure due to nucleosome unwrapping by BAF to confer locus specificity for persistent chromatin remodeling. Our study reveals the mechanistic basis of cell-type-specific chromatin accessibility. We propose a new paradigm for how functional synergy between dynamically acting chromatin factors regulates nucleosome organization.

Project description:Dormancy is an essential biological process for the propagation of many life forms through generations and stressful conditions. Early embryos of many mammals are preservable for weeks to months within the uterus under dormancy, which can be induced in vitro through mTOR inhibition. Dormancy features silencing of the genome and abundant heterochromatin formation, which conflicts with the permissive and uncommitted genomic profile of pluripotent cells. Cellular strategies to maintain pluripotency in the fate of this conflict are not known. Here we probed chromatin regulation during embryonic stem cells’ (ESC) entry into dormancy to identify mechanisms that ensure faithful propagation of cellular identity through dormancy. We show a global increase in DNA methylation and loss of chromatin accessibility in dormant ESCs and find that TET DNA demethylases are essential to counteract this trend at key pluripotency regulatory elements, particularly at young LINE1 repeats and active enhancers. Demethylation of these targets by TETs is essential for transcription factor (TF) recruitment and transient chromatin decondensation before hypercompaction. We propose that key regulatory elements are bookmarked coordinately by TETs and TFs in dormancy for maintenance of cellular identity. Perturbation of TET activity compromises embryo survival through dormancy; whereas its enhancement improves survival rates. Our results reveal the first essential chromatin regulator in establishing mammalian embryonic dormancy and pave the way to building its temporal regulatory code in embryonic and adult tissues.

Project description:To identify chromatin mechanisms of neuronal differentiation, we characterized the relationship between chromatin accessibility and gene expression in cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs) of the developing mouse. We used DNase-seq to globally map accessibility of cis-regulatory elements and RNA-seq to profile transcript abundance at key points in postnatal neuronal differentiation in vivo and in culture. We observed thousands of chromatin accessibility changes as CGNs differentiated and determined that many of these regions function as stage-specific neuronal enhancers. Motif discovery within differentially accessible chromatin regions suggested a novel role for the Zic family of transcription factors in CGN maturation, and we confirmed the association of Zic with these elements by ChIP-seq. Knockdown of Zic1 and Zic2 indicated Zic transcription factors are required to coordinate mature neuronal gene expression patterns. These data reveal chromatin dynamics at thousands of gene regulatory elements that facilitate gene expression patterns necessary for neuronal differentiation and function. Biological triplicate DNase-seq and RNA-seq samples from 3 in vivo cerebellum developmental stages (P7, P14, P60) and 3 cultured CGN stages (isolated granule neuron precursors, +3DIV, and +7DIV) obtained. Zic1 and Zic2 were separately knocked down by lentiviral shRNA in cultured CGNs followed by RNA-seq (2 biological replicates per KD and 2 controls). Zic1/2 ChIP-seq was performed with in vivo cerebellum at two developmental stages (P7 and P60) in duplicate with matching input and IgG controls.
