Biochemical properties of chromatin domains define their compartmentalization [I]

ABSTRACT: Chromatin three-dimensional (3D) organization inside the cell nucleus determines the separation of euchromatin and heterochromatin domains. Their segregation results in the definition of active and inactive chromatin compartments, whereby the local concentration of associated proteins, RNA and DNA results in the formation of distinct subnuclear structures. Thus, chromatin domains spatially confined in a specific 3D nuclear compartment are expected to share similar epigenetic features and biochemical properties, in terms of accessibility and solubility. Based on this rationale, we developed the 4f-SAMMY-seq to map euchromatin and heterochromatin based on their accessibility and solubility, starting from as little as 10,000 cells. Adopting a tailored bioinformatic data analysis approach we reconstruct also their 3D segregation in active and inactive chromatin compartments and sub-compartments, thus recapitulating the characteristic properties of distinct chromatin states. A key novelty of the new method is the capability to map both the linear segmentation of open and closed chromatin domains, as well as their 3D compartmentalization in one single experiment.

Chromatin organization in 3D distinguishes the influences of dMes-4/NSD and Hypb/dSet2 in protecting genes from H3K27me3 silencing [Hi-C]

Project description:Maintenance of gene expression programs requires cell-type specific barcoding of genomes through euchromatin interspaced with facultative heterochromatin domains where PRC1/2 hinder chromatin accessibility thereby repressing genes inside such domains. At heterochromatin-euchromatin borders, regulation of heterochromatin spreading may depend on transcriptional activity, histone modifiers, and chromatin barrier insulators or the borders of topological associated domain (TADs). Here we show that depletion of H3K36 di- or tri-methyl histone methyl transferases dMes-4/NSD or Hypb/dSet2 induces H3K27me3 spreading at H3K27me3 borders, accounting for the repression of hundreds of genes upon depletion of these enzymes. dMes-4/NSD influences genes within active chromatin hubs and flanked by H3K27me3 borders demarcated by a TAD border, unlike dHypb/dSet2 that protects genes near H3K27me3 borders in absence of a TAD border. Insulator mutants that disrupt 3D chromatin hubs recapitulate only the H3K27me3 spreading observed upon depletion of dMes-4/NSD, and not of Hypb/dSet2. Hi-C data demonstrate how dMes-4/NSD directly block the propagation of the long-range interactions marking the inactive TADs, onto neighbor active regions, unlike Hypb/dSet2. Our data thus show a division of labor between dMes-4/NSD and Hypb/dSet2 to protect genes against H3K27me3 silencing, highlighting a direct influence of H3K36me marks on the demarcation of H3K27me3 domains within repressive TADs.

The FUN30 Chromatin Remodeler Fft3 Protects Centromeric and Subtelomeric Domains from Euchromatin Formation

Project description:The chromosomes of eukaryotes are organized into structurally and functionally discrete domains. This implies the presence of insulator elements that separate adjacent domains, allowing them to maintain different chromatin structures. We show that the Fun30 chromatin remodeler, Fft3, is essential for maintaining a proper chromatin structure at centromeres and subtelomeres. Fft3 is localized to insulator elements and inhibits euchromatin assembly in silent chromatin domains. In its absence, euchromatic histone modifications and histone variants invade centromeres and subtelomeres, causing a mis-regulation of gene expression and severe chromosome segregation defects. Our data strongly suggest that Fft3 controls the identity of chromatin domains by protecting these regions from euchromatin assembly.

Small chromosomal regions position themselves autonomously according to their chromatin class

Project description:The spatial arrangement of chromatin is linked to the regulation of nuclear processes. One striking aspect of nuclear organization is the spatial segregation of heterochromatin and euchromatin domains. The mechanisms of this chromatin segregation are still poorly understood. In this work we investigated the link between the primary genomic sequence and chromatin domains. We analyzed the spatial intranuclear arrangement of a human artificial chromosome (HAC) in a xenospecific mouse background and compared it to an orthologous region in the context of its native mouse chromosome. The two orthologous regions include segments that can be assigned to three major chromatin classes according to their gene abundance and repeat repertoire: (i) gene-rich and SINE-rich euchromatin, (ii) gene-poor and LINE/LTR-rich heterochromatin and (iii) gene-depleted and satellite DNA-containing constitutive heterochromatin. We show using FISH and 4C-seq technologies that chromatin segments ranging from 0.6 to 3 Mb cluster with segments of the same chromatin class. As a consequence, the chromatin segments acquire corresponding positions in the nucleus irrespectively of their chromosomal context, thus rendering this a chromosome segment autonomous property. Interactions with the nuclear lamina are also partially retained in the HAC but demonstrate less autonomy. Taken together, our results show that genomic segments autonomously fold and position themselves relative to other genomic parts, suggesting that the three major classes of chromatin constitute a blueprint for the overall nuclear architecture.

4C-seq: Temporal dynamics and developmental memory of 3D chromatin architecture at Hox gene loci

Project description:Hox genes are essential regulators of embryonic development. They are activated in a temporal sequence following their topological order within their genomic clusters. Subsequently, states of activity are fine-tuned and maintained to translate into domains of progressively overlapping gene products. While the mechanisms underlying such temporal and spatial progressions begin to be understood, many of their aspects remain unclear. We have systematically analyzed the 3D chromatin organization of Hox clusters in vivo, during their activation using high-resolution circular chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq). Initially, Hox clusters are organized as single 3D chromatin compartments decorated with bivalent chromatin marks. Their progressive transcriptional activation is associated with a dynamic bi-modal 3D organization, whereby the genes switch one after the other, from an inactive to an active 3D compartment. These local 3D dynamics occur within a larger constitutive framework of interactions within the surrounding Topological Associated Domains, which confirms previous results that regulation of this process in primarily cluster intrinsic. The local step-wise progression in time can be stopped and memorized at various body levels and hence it may accounts for the various chromatin architectures previously described at different anterior to posterior body levels for the same embryo at a later stage. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C-seq) samples from mouse ES cells and mouse embryonic samples at different stages of development. Data based on 41 biological samples.
