Analyses of ZNF143 reveal single-nucleotide architectural principles of the Pcdh HS5-1 enhancer

ABSTRACT: DNA looping and TAD formations are critical for multiple basic physiological activities of cells. The ZNF143 protein contains 7 zinc fingers, and is involved in 3D genome construction. Here, we show that ZNF143 regulates the chromosome folding through two kinds of mechanisms. First, ZNF143 interacts with CTCF at CTCF binding sites (CBS) and stabilizes the interaction between CTCF and cohesin. The CTCF or cohesin depletion disrupts the binding of ZNF143 on CBS, and ZNF143 knockout narrows the space between CTCF and cohesin, and decreases the chromosome interaction. Second, ZNF143 could directly bind DNA, which is enriched at the boundaries of TADs. Removing them slightly decreases the interactions of TADs and loops, but significantly causes A/B compartment transformation, perhaps due to the changes of the gene expressions after removing ZNF143. In summary, ZNF143 is recruited by CTCF to regulate loops and TADs, while ZNF143 itself also influences TAD formations and higher-order compartment segregation.

SRF is a new player in 3D genome organization and stem cell pluripotency

Project description:Serum response factor (SRF) is a transcription factor essential for cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration, and is required for primitive streak and mesoderm formation in the embryo. The canonical roles of SRF are mediated by a diverse set of context-dependent cofactors. Here we show that SRF physically interacts with CTCF and cohesin subunits at TAD boundaries and loop anchors. SRF reinforces the insulation of TADs and promotes the formation of long-range chromatin loops. In ES cells, SRF associates with Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog and contributes to the formation of 3D pluripotency hubs. Our findings reveal new roles of SRF in higher-order chromatin organization.

Computational prediction of CTCF/cohesin-based intra-TAD (sbTAD) loops that insulate chromatin contacts and gene expression in mouse liver

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below, and presents the high throuput sequencing datasets that were generated as part of a larger study that investigates the role of CTCF and cohesin as key drivers of 3D-nuclear organization, anchoring the megabase-scale Topologically Associating Domains (TADs) that segment the genome. This study presents and validates a computational method to predict cohesin-and-CTCF binding sites that form intra-TAD DNA loops. The intra-TAD loop anchors identified are structurally indistinguishable from TAD anchors regarding binding partners, sequence conservation, and resistance to cohesin knockdown; further, the intra-TAD loops retain key functional features of TADs, including chromatin contact insulation, blockage of repressive histone mark spread, and ubiquity across tissues. The intra-TAD loops are proposed to be formed by the same loop extrusion mechanism as the larger TAD loops; their shorter length enables finer regulatory control in restricting enhancer-promoter interactions, which enables selective, high-level expression of gene targets of super-enhancers and genes located within repressive nuclear compartments. These findings elucidate the role of intra-TAD cohesin-and-CTCF binding in nuclear organization associated with widespread insulation of distal enhancer activity.

MCM complexes are barriers that restrict cohesin-mediated loop extrusion [snHi-C]

Project description:Eukaryotic genomes are compacted into loops and topologically associating domains (TADs), which contribute to transcription, recombination and genomic stability. Cohesin extrudes DNA into loops that are thought to lengthen until CTCF boundaries are encountered. Little is known about whether loop extrusion is impeded by DNA-bound macromolecular machines. We demonstrate that the replicative helicase MCM is a barrier that restricts loop extrusion in G1 phase. Single-nucleus Hi-C of one-cell embryos revealed that MCM loading reduces CTCF-anchored loops and decreases TAD boundary insulation, suggesting loop extrusion is impeded before reaching CTCF. Single-molecule imaging shows that MCMs are physical barriers that constrain cohesin translocation in vitro. Simulations are consistent with MCMs as abundant, random barriers. We conclude that distinct loop extrusion barriers contribute to shaping 3D genomes.

ZNF143 deletion alters enhancer/promoter looping and CTCF/cohesin geometry [HiChIP]

Project description:The transcription factor ZNF143 contains seven tandem zinc fingers and is involved in 3D genome construction; however, the mechanism by which ZNF143 functions in chromatin looping remains unclear. Here, we show that ZNF143 directionally recognizes diverse genomic sites and is required for chromatin looping between these sites. In addition, ZNF143 is located between CTCF and cohesin at numerous CTCF sites and ZNF143 removal narrows the space between CTCF and cohesin. Moreover, genetic deletion of ZNF143, in conjunction with acute CTCF depletion, revealed that ZNF143 and CTCF collaborate to regulate higher-order genome organization. Thus, ZNF143 is recruited by CTCF to the CTCF sites to regulate TAD formation and genome compartmentalization whereas directional recognition of DNA motifs directly by ZNF143 itself regulates promoter activity via chromatin looping.
