Low affinity CTCF binding drives transcriptional regulation whereas high affinity binding encompasses architectural functions.

ABSTRACT: This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. CTCF is a DNA-binding protein which plays critical roles in chromatin structure organization and transcriptional regulation; however, little is known about the functional determinants of different CTCF binding sites (CBS). Using a conditional mouse model, we have identified one set of CBSs that are lost upon CTCF depletion (lost CBSs) and another set that persists (retained CBSs). Retained CBSs are more similar to the consensus CTCF binding sequence and usually span tandem CTCF peaks. Lost CBSs are enriched at enhancers and promoters and associate with active chromatin marks and higher transcriptional activity. In contrast, retained CBSs are enriched at TAD and loop boundaries. Integration of ChIP-seq and RNA-seq data has revealed that retained CBSs are located at the boundaries between distinct chromatin states, acting as chromatin barriers. Our results provide evidence that transient, lost CBSs are involved in transcriptional regulation, whereas retained CBSs are critical for establishing higher-order chromatin architecture.

CTCF/cohesin-binding sites are frequently mutated in cancer

Project description:Cohesin is present in almost all active enhancer regions, where it is associated with transcription factors. Cohesin frequently colocalizes with CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor), affecting genomic stability, expression and epigenetic homeostasis. Cohesin subunits are mutated in cancer, but CTCF/cohesin-binding sites (CBSs) in DNA have not been examined for mutations. Here we report frequent mutations at CBSs in cancers displaying a mutational signature where mutations in A•T base pairs predominate. Integration of whole-genome sequencing data from 213 colorectal cancer (CRC) samples and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-exo) data identified frequent point mutations at CBSs. In contrast, CRCs showing an ultramutator phenotype caused by defects in the exonuclease domain of DNA polymerase ɛ (POLE) displayed significantly fewer mutations at and adjacent to CBSs. Analysis of public data showed that multiple cancer types accumulate CBS mutations. CBSs are a major mutational hotspot in the noncoding cancer genome.

Genetic Evidence for Asymmetric Blocking of Higher-Order Chromatin Structure by CTCF/Cohesin

Project description:The architectural protein CTCF binds to mammalian insulators genome wide with directionality and recruits cohesin to mediate oriented long-distance chromatin loops. In many cases, CTCF-binding sites (CBSs) are associated with distal enhancers and target promoters. It is generally thought that CTCF binding results in spatial contacts between distal enhancers and target promoters leading to activation of specific promoters. However, how CTCF orchestrates higher-order chromatin organization to regulate gene expression is not fully understood. Here we used CRISPR DNA-fragment editing to investigate the roles of CTCF in chromatin organization of the clustered protocadherin (Pcdh) genes, which is an ideal model system with repertoires of CBSs in variable promoters and super-enhancers. We found that the CBSs at chromatin domain boundary and even single CBSs could determine the orientation of long-distance chromatin looping. In addition, deletion or inversion of large regions containing tandem CBS arrays in mice demonstrated asymmetric influences on chromatin looping between super-enhancers and target promoters. These genetic data have important implications on the assembly mechanisms of higher-order chromatin structures.

CTCF binding polarity determines chromatin looping [4C]

Project description:CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is an architectural protein involved in the three-dimensional organization of chromatin. In this study, we systematically assayed the 3D genomic contact profiles of hundreds of CTCF binding sites in multiple tissues with high-resolution 4C-seq. We find both developmentally stable and dynamic chromatin loops. As recently reported, our data also suggest that chromatin loops preferentially form between CTCF binding sites oriented in a convergent manner. To directly test this, we used CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing to delete core CTCF binding sites in three loci, including the CTCF site in the Sox2 super-enhancer. In all instances, CTCF and cohesin recruitment were lost, and chromatin loops with distal CTCF sites were disrupted or destabilized. Re-insertion of oppositely oriented CTCF recognition sequences restored CTCF and cohesin recruitment, but did not re-establish chromatin loops. We conclude that CTCF binding polarity plays a functional role in the formation of higher order chromatin structure. 4C-seq was performed on a large number of viewpoints in E14 embryonic stem cells, neural precursor cells and primary fetal liver cells

Molecular Mechanism of Directional CTCF Recognition of a Diverse Range of Genomic Sites

Project description:CTCF, a conserved 3D genome architecture protein, determines proper genome-wide chromatin looping interactions through directional binding to specific sequence elements of four modules within numerous CTCF-binding sites (CBSs) by its 11 zinc fingers (ZFs). Here, we report the crystal structures of four human CTCF-CBS complexes of the protocadherin (Pcdh) clusters, and show that directional CTCF binding to cognate CBSs of the Pcdh enhancers and promoters is achieved through inserting its ZF3, ZFs 4-7, and ZFs 9-11 into the major groove along CBSs, resulting in a sequence-specific recognition of module 4, modules 2-3, and module 1, respectively, with ZF8 as a spacer element for variable distances between modules 1 and 2. In addition, the base-contact with the asymmetric “A” in the central position of modules 2-3, is essential for directional recognition of the CBSs with symmetric core sequences and lack of module 1. Furthermore, CTCF tolerates base changes at specific positions within the degenerated CBS sequences, permitting genome-wide CTCF binding to a diverse range of CBSs. Together, these complex structures provide important insights into the molecular mechanisms for the directionality, diversity, flexibility, dynamics, and conservation of multivalent CTCF binding to its cognate sites across the entire human genome

HOTTIP reinforces CTCF-defined TAD boundaries by forming R-loops to drive Wnt/b-catenin target gene expression in AML leukemogenesis

Project description:HOTTIP lncRNA is highly expressed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients carrying MLL rearrangement and NPM1c+ mutations, and positively correlates with poor patient survival by facilitating formation of leukemic-specific topologically associated domains (TADs) to drive leukemic transcription program. However, the direct mechanism through which HOTTIP accesses and regulates leukemic genome topology remains unknown. Here, we showed that HOTTIP directly interacts and regulates a fraction of CTCF binding sites (CBSs) including key WNT/b-catenin target loci in the AML genome by forming R-loop structure that reinforces the CTCF boundary, WNT/b-catenin TADs and gene transcription. Importantly, either deleting CBSs or targeting RNaseH to eliminate R-loop structure in boundaries of the Wnt/b-catenin TADs resulted in inhibited Wnt target promoter interactomes and Wnt target expression, and mitigation of leukemogenesis of PDX mouse models with aberrant HOTTIP expression. Thus, HOTTIP reinforces CTCF-defined TAD boundaries by forming R-loops to drive Wnt/b-catenin aberration and pathogenesis of MLL-rearranged/NPM1c+ AML.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation dependent changes in CTCF-chromatin binding and gene expression in breast cells

Project description:CTCF is an evolutionary conserved and ubiquitously expressed architectural protein, which regulates a plethora of cellular functions using different molecular mechanisms. The main form of CTCF with an apparent molecular mass of 130 kDa (CTCF130) has been extensively studied, however the properties of CTCF180, highly modified by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) are not well understood. In this study we performed ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analyses in breast cells 226LDM, proliferating (with CTCF130 as the most abundant CTCF form) and arrested in the cell cycle (with only CTCF180). A dramatic reorganization of CTCF binding was observed during this transition, whereby CTCF was evacuated from many sites ("lost" group), although some sites retained modified CTCF ("common") and others acquired CTCF180 ("gained"). The classic CTCF binding motifs were identified for the former two groups, whereas the latter had no CTCF binding motif. Changes in CTCF occupancies in lost/common (but not gained) sites were associated with increased chromatin densities and altered expression from the neighboring genes. We propose a model integrating CTCF130/180 transition with CTCF-DNA binding and gene expression patterns, and functional outcomes. This study issues an important cautionary note concerning design and interpretation of any experiments using cells and tissues where CTCF180 may be present.

Acute depletion of CTCF rewires genome-wide chromatin accessibility

Project description:The transcription factor CTCF appears indispensable in defining topologically associated domain boundaries and maintaining chromatin loop structures within these domains, supported by numerous functional studies. However, acute depletion of CTCF globally reduces chromatin interactions but does not significantly alter transcription. Here we systematically integrated multi-omics data including ATAC-seq, RNA-seq, WGBS, Hi-C, Cut&Run, CRISPR-Cas9 survival dropout screening, time-solved deep proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses in cells carrying auxin-induced degron at endogenous CTCF locus. Acute CTCF protein degradation markedly rewired genome-wide chromatin accessibility. Increased accessible chromatin regions were largely located adjacent to CTCF-binding sites at promoter regions and insulator sites and were associated with enhanced transcription of nearby genes. In addition, we used CTCF-associated multi-omics data to establish a combinatorial data analysis pipeline to discover CTCF co-regulatory partners in regulating downstream gene expression. We successfully identified 40 candidates, including multiple established partners (i.e., MYC) supported by all layers of evidence. Interestingly, many CTCF co-regulators (e.g., YY1, ZBTB7A) that have evident alterations of respective downstream gene expression do not show changes at their expression levels across the multi-omics measurements upon acute CTCF loss, highlighting the strength of our system to discover hidden co-regulatory partners associated with CTCF-mediated transcription. This study highlights CTCF loss rewires genome-wide chromatin accessibility, which plays a critical role in transcriptional regulation

Mechanisms of PU.1 binding site selection in-vivo

Project description:The majority of sequence-specific transcription factors bind genomic DNA only at a fraction of their potential binding sites and the ‘rules’ for binding or not-binding are only partially understood. Here, we studied the binding properties of the myeloid and B-cell specific transcription factor PU.1 in-vivo and in-vitro to unveil basic features of occupied vs. non-occupied consensus sites. In addition to published PU.1 ChIP-seq data we mapped CTCF binding sites in monocytes and macrophages to determine chromatin domain boundaries and performed MCIp-seq in monocytes to reveal DNA methylation patterns across the genome. ChIP-seq of CTCF in human monocytes and human monocyte-derived macrophages as well as MCIp-seq in human monocytes
