Project description:DNA selection by the master transcription factor PU.1
| PRJNA870593 | ENA
Project description:PU.1 is a prototype master transcription factor (TF) of hematopoietic cell differentiation with diverse roles in different lineages. Analysis of its genome-wide binding pattern across PU.1 expressing cell types revealed manifold cell type-specific binding patterns. They are not consistent with the epigenetic and chromatin constraints to PU.1 binding observed in vitro, suggesting that PU.1 requires auxiliary factors to access DNA in vivo. Using a model of transient mRNA expression we show that PU.1 induction leads to the extensive remodeling of chromatin, redistribution of partner transcription factors and rapid initiation of a myeloid gene expression program in heterologous cell types. By probing PU.1 mutants for defects in chromatin access and screening for PU.1 proximal proteins in vivo, we found that its N-terminal acidic domain was required for the recruitment of SWI/SNF remodeling complexes, de novo chromatin access and stable binding as well as the redistribution of partner TFs.

Project description:This study aims to investigate the effects of PU.1 binding-site inhibitors/redistributors (DB2115, DB2373, DB2750, DB2826) upon the genomic occupancy of PU.1 and to understand DB2115-binding site preference amongst the PU.1 cistrome.

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.

Project description:The transcription factor PU.1 is crucial for the development of many hematopoietic lineages and its binding patterns significantly change during differentiation processes. However, the 'rules' for binding or not-binding of potential binding sites are only partially understood. To unveil basic characteristics of PU.1 binding site selection in different cell types, we studied the binding properties of PU.1 during human macrophage differentiation. Using in vivo and in vitro binding assays, as well as computational prediction, we show that PU.1 selects its binding sites primarily based on sequence affinity, which results in the frequent autonomous binding of high affinity sites in DNase I inaccessible regions (25-45% of all occupied sites). Increasing PU.1 concentrations and the availability of cooperative transcription factor interactions during lineage differentiation both decrease affinity thresholds for in vivo binding and fine-tune cell type-specific PU.1 binding, which seems to be largely independent of DNA methylation. Occupied sites were predominantly detected in active chromatin domains, which are characterized by higher densities of PU.1 recognition sites and neighboring motifs for cooperative transcription factors. Our study supports a model of PU.1 binding control that involves motif-binding affinity, PU.1 concentration, cooperativeness with neighboring transcription factor sites and chromatin domain accessibility, which likely applies to all PU.1 expressing cells.

Project description:Master transcription factors are the gatekeepers of lineage identity. As such, they have been a major focus of efforts to manipulate cell fate for therapeutic purposes. The ETS transcription factor PU.1 has a potent ability to confer macrophage phenotypes on cells already committed to a different lineage, but how it overcomes the presence of other master regulators is not known. The nuclear receptor PPARγ is the master regulator of the adipose lineage, and its genomic binding pattern is well characterized in adipocytes. Here, we show that when expressed at macrophage levels in mature adipocytes, PU.1 bound a large fraction of its macrophage sites, where it induced chromatin opening and the expression of macrophage target genes. Strikingly, PU.1 markedly reduced the genomic binding of PPARγ without changing its abundance. PU.1 expression repressed genes with nearby adipocyte-specific PPARγ binding sites, while a common macrophage-adipocyte gene expression program was retained. Together, these data reveal unexpected lability within the adipocyte PPARγ cistrome and show that even in terminally differentiated cells, PU.1 can remodel the cistrome of another master regulator. Microarray expression profiling was performed on 3T3-L1 adipocytes from two treatment groups: (1) adipocytes transduced with a control adenovirus expressing beta-galactosidase (LACZ-Ads) and (2) adipocytes transduced with an adenovirus expressing full-length murine PU.1 cDNA (PU.1-Ads). Each sample group consists of four biological replicates which are here defined as separate differentiations of mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes and adenoviral infections. Each replicate was hybridized to an individual array for a total of eight arrays.

The ETS transcription factor PU.1 has a potent ability to confer macrophage phenotypes on cells already committed to a different lineage, but how it overcomes the presence of other master regulators is not known. The nuclear receptor PPARM-NM-3 is the master regulator of the adipose lineage, and its genomic binding pattern is well characterized in adipocytes.

Nuclear lysates from each group were used for PPARg ChIP. For PU.1-Ads, PU.1 ChIP was also performed. To generate chromatin for ChIP-seq, DNA from three immunoprecipitations per condition was pooled. This process was repreated from a second set of L1 adipocytes to generate two biological replicates for sequencing. Genomic input DNA was sequenced from the first biological replicate only.
