3D Landscape of Regulatory Elements and Transcription Factors for Transcriptional Regulation in Arabidopsis [ChIA-PET]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Analyses of the regulatory repertoire showed that distal active cis-regulatory elements (CREs) are linked to their target genes through long-range chromatin interactions with increased expression, and poised CREs are linked to their target genes through long-range chromatin interactions with depressed expression. Furthermore, we demonstrated that transcription factor MYC2 is critical for chromatin spatial organization, and proposed that MYC2 occupancy and MYC2-mediated chromatin interactions coordinately facilitate transcription within the framework of 3D chromatin architecture. An analysis of functionally related gene-defined chromatin connectivity networks revealed that genes implicated in flowering-time control are functionally compartmentalized into separate subdomains via their spatial activity in the leaf or shoot apical meristem, linking active mark- or H3K27me3-associated chromatin conformation to coordinated gene expression. The results showed that the guiding principle for modulating gene transcription in Arabidopsis includes not only the linear juxtaposition, but also the long-range chromatin interactions.
