Project description:Interactions of chromatin with the nuclear lamina via lamina-associated domains (LADs) confers structural stability to the genome. The dynamics of positioning of LADs during differentiation, and how LADs impinge on developmental gene expression, remains elusive, however. We examined changes in the association of lamin B1 with the genome in the first 72 hours of differentiation of adipose stem cells into adipocytes. We demonstrate a repositioning of entire stand-alone LADs and of LAD edges as a prominent nuclear structural feature of early adipogenesis. Whereas adipogenic genes are released from LADs, LADs sequester downregulated or repressed genes irrelevant for the adipose lineage. However, LAD repositioning only partly concurs with gene expression changes. Differentially expressed genes in LADs, including LADs conserved throughout differentiation, reside in local euchromatic and lamin-depleted sub-domains. In these sub-domains, pre-differentiation histone modification profiles correlate with the LAD versus inter-LAD outcome of these genes during adipogenic commitment. In addition, differentially expressed genes in LADs are linked to short-range enhancers which overall co-partition with these genes in LADs versus inter-LADs during differentiation. We conclude that LADs are predictable structural features of adipose nuclear architecture that restrain non-adipogenic genes in a repressive environment.

Project description:Purpose: Many mammalian genes exhibit circadian expression patterns concordant with periodic binding of transcription factors, chromatin modifications and chromosomal interactions. We determined whether lamina-associated domains (LADs) display oscillatory circadian patterns of interaction with nuclear lamin B1 during hte circadian cycle, and identified any relationship to changes in gene expression patterns in oscillatory LADs or in their vinicity. Methods: To this end, we mapped LADs by chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) of lamin B1 (LMNB1) (antibody ab16048, Abcam) from mouse livers colected every 6 h, for 30 h, after entrainment of the circadian clock by 24-h fasting and refeeding. Gene expression profiles were also analyzed by RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) at the same time points. Results and Conclusions: We report periodic interactions of chromatin domains with nuclear lamin B1, suggesting rhythmic associations of fractions of the genome with the nuclear lamina. Entrainment of the circadian clock by fasting and refeeding is accompanied in mouse liver by a gain of lamin-chromatin interactions followed by oscillations in these interactions at hundreds of lamina-associated domains (LADs). A subset of these oscillations exhibit periodicity and affect one or both LAD borders or entire stand-alone LADs. Periodic LADs are however not a dominant feature of these variable LADs, as most LADs are conserved during the circadian cycle. LAD oscillations are for the most part asynchronous between the 5’ and 3’ ends of LADs. Periodic LADs also uncoupled from gene expression patterns, periodic or not, within or in vicinity of these LADs. Accordingly, periodic genes, including central clock-control genes, are located megabases away from LADs, suggesting their residence in a transcriptionally permissive environment throughout the circadian cycle. Our data suggest autonomous oscillatory associations of fractions of the genome with the nuclear lamina, providing new evidence for rhythmic spatial configurations of chromatin. However, our data also argue that periodic LADs constitute a minor fraction of variable LADs, and reflect stochasticity in variable lamin-chromatin interactions during the circadian cycle.

Project description:The nuclear lamina is a proteinaceous network of filaments that provide both structural and gene regulatory functions by tethering proteins and large domains of DNA, so-called lamin associated domains (LADs), to the periphery of the nucleus. LADs are a large fraction of the mammalian genome that are repressed, in part, by their association to the nuclear periphery. The genesis and maintenance of LADs is poorly understood as are the proteins that participate in these functions. In an effort to identify proteins that reside at the nuclear periphery and potentially interact with LADs, we have taken a two-pronged approach. First, we have undertaken an interactome analysis of the inner nuclear membrane bound LAP2β to further characterize the nuclear lamina proteome. To accomplish this, we have leveraged the BioID system, which previously has been successfully used to characterize the nuclear lamina proteome. Second, we have established a system to identify proteins that bind to LADs by developing a chromatin directed BioID system. We combined the BioID system with the m6A-tracer system which binds to LADs in live cells to identify LAD proximal and nuclear lamina proteins. In combining these datasets, we have further characterized the protein network at the nuclear lamina as well as identified putative LAD proximal proteins. Our analysis identifies many heterochromatin related proteins related to H3K9 methylation processes as well as many proteins related to cell cycle regulation identifying important proteins essential for LAD function.

Project description:Dynamic interactions of nuclear lamins with chromatin through so-called lamin-associated domains (LADs) contribute to spatial arrangements of the genome. Here, we provide evidence for pre-patterning of differentiation-driven formation of lamin A/C LADs by domains of histone H2B modified by the nutrient sensor O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (H2BGlcNAc), which we term GADs. We demonstrate a two-step process of lamin A/C LAD formation during in vitro adipogenesis, involving (i) a spreading of lamin A/C-chromatin interactions during the transition from progenitor cell proliferation to cell cycle arrest, and (ii) a genome-scale redistribution these interactions through a process of LAD ‘exchange’ within hours of adipogenic induction. Chromatin state modeling reveals that lamin A/C LADs can be found both in active and repressive chromatin contexts which can be influenced by cell differentiation status. De novo formation of adipogenic lamin A/C LADs occurs non-randomly on GADs, consisting of megabase-size intergenic and repressive chromatin domains. Accordingly, while pre-differentiation lamin A/C LADs are gene-rich, post-differentiation LADs harbor repressive features reminiscent of lamin B1 LADs. Moreover, release of lamin A/C from genes directly involved in glycolysis concurs with their transcriptional upregulation after adipogenic induction, and with concordant downstream elevations in H2BGlcNAc levels and O-GlcNAc cycling. Our results unveil an epigenetic pre-patterning of adipogenic LADs by GADs, suggesting a coupling of developmentally regulated lamin A/C-genome interactions to a metabolically sensitive chromatin modification.

Project description:Specific interactions of the genome with the nuclear lamina (NL) are thought to assist chromosome folding inside the nucleus and to contribute to the regulation of gene expression. High-resolution mapping has recently identified hundreds of large, sharply defined lamina-associated domains (LADs) in the human genome, and suggested that the insulator protein CTCF may help to demarcate these domains. Here, we report the detailed structure of LADs in Drosophila cells, and investigate the putative roles of five insulator proteins in LAD organization. We found that of these five proteins, only SU(HW) binds preferentially at LAD borders and at specific positions inside LADs, while GAF, CTCF, BEAF-32 and DWG are mostly absent from these regions. By knockdown and overexpression studies we demonstrate that SU(HW) weakens LAD – NL interactions by a local antagonistic effect. Our results provide insights into the evolution of LAD organization and reveal a role for SU(HW) in the regulation of genome – NL interactions. DamID experiments for Lamin, CTCF, SU(HW), GAF, DWG, and BEAF-32, and for Lamin after overexpression and after knockdown of SU(HW), were performed in Drosophila cell cultures. Samples were hybridized to 380k NimbleGen arrays with 300 bp probe spacing. Every experiment was done in duplicate in the reverse dye orientation. The supplementary file 'GSE20311_DamID_norm_mean.txt' contains the mean log2(Dam-fusion/Dam-only) values of two replicates.

Project description:Autophagy is a catabolic membrane trafficking process involved in degradation of cellular constituents through lysosomes, which maintains cell and tissue homeostasis. While much attention has been focused on autophagic turnover of cytoplasmic materials, little is known regarding the role of autophagy in degrading nuclear components. Here we report that autophagy machinery mediates degradation of nuclear lamina in mammalian cells, a process we term laminophagy. The autophagy protein LC3 is present in the nucleus and directly interacts with the nuclear lamina protein Lamin B1, and associates with lamin-associated domains (LADs) on chromatin. This interaction does not downregulate Lamin B1 during starvation, but mediates nuclear lamina degradation upon tumorigenic insults, such as by oncogenic Ras. Laminophagy is achieved by nucleus-to-cytosol transport that delivers Lamin B1 to lysosome for degradation. Inhibiting autophagy or LC3-Lamin B1 interaction prevents oncogenic Ras-induced Lamin B1 loss and delays oncogene-induced cell cycle arrest. Our study unveils a role of autophagy in degrading nuclear materials, and suggests laminophagy as a guarding mechanism protecting cells from tumorigenesis.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is highly prevalent in type 2 diabetes mellitus and the elderly, impacting 40% of individuals over 70. Regulation of heterochromatin at the nuclear lamina has been associated with aging and age-dependent metabolic changes. We have shown that changes at the lamina in aged hepatocytes and laminopathy models lead to redistribution of lamina-associated domains (LADs), opening of repressed chromatin, and upregulation of genes regulating lipid synthesis and storage, culminating in fatty liver. Here we test the hypothesis that change in expression of lamina-associated proteins and nuclear shape leads to redistribution of LADs, followed by altered binding of pioneer factor FOXA2, uprregulation of lipid synthesis and storage, and culminating in steatosis in younger NAFLD patients (aged 21-51). Changes in nuclear morphology alter LAD partitioning and reduced lamin B1 signal correlates with increased FOXA2 binding prior to severe steatosis in young mice placed on Western det. Nuclear shape is also changed in younger NAFLD patients. LADs are redistrubted and Lamin B1 signal decreases similarly in mild and severe steatosis. In contrast, FOXA2 binding is similar in normal and NAFLD patients with moderate steatosis and is repositioned only in NAFLD patients with more severe lipid accumulation. Hence, changes at the nuclear lamina reshape FOXA2 binding with progression of the disease. Our results suggest a role for nuclear lamina in etiology of NAFLD, irrespective of aging, with potential for improved stratification of patients and novel treatments aimed at restoring nuclear lamina function.

Project description:Lamins are components of the peripheral nuclear lamina and interact with heterochromatic genomic regions, termed lamina-associated domains (LADs). In contrast to lamin B1, lamin A/C also localizes throughout the nucleus, where it associates with the chromatin-binding protein lamina-associated polypeptide (LAP) 2alpha. Here we show lamin A/C also interacts with euchromatin, as determined by chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses of eu- and heterochromatin-enriched samples. By way of contrast, lamin B1 was only found associated with heterochromatin. Euchromatic regions occupied by lamin A/C overlap with those bound by LAP2alpha, the depletion of which shifts binding of lamin A/C towards more heterochromatic regions. These alterations in lamin A/C chromatin interaction affect epigenetic histone marks in euchromatin without significantly affecting gene expression, while loss of lamin A/C in heterochromatic regions increased gene expression. Our data show a novel role of nucleoplasmic lamin A/C and LAP2alpha in regulating euchromatin.
