Histone H3K27ac separates active from poised enhancers and predicts developmental state (gene expression data)

ABSTRACT: Developmental programs are controlled by transcription factors and chromatin regulators, which maintain specific gene expression programs through epigenetic modification of the genome. These regulatory events at enhancers contribute to the specific gene expression programs that determine cell state and the potential for differentiation into new cell types. While enhancer elements are known to be associated with certain histone modifications, and transcription factors, the relationship of these modifications to gene expression and developmental state has not been clearly defined. Here we interrogate the epigenetic landscape of enhancer elements in embryonic stem cells and several adult tissues in the mouse. We find that histone H3K27ac distinguishes active enhancers from inactive/poised enhancer elements, thus providing clues to current cell state and further developmental potential.

Enhancer-core promoter specificity separates developmental and housekeeping regulation

Project description:Gene transcription in animals involves the assembly of the RNA polymerase II complex at core promoters and its cell type-specific activation by genomic enhancers that can be located more distally. However, how ubiquitous expression of housekeeping genes is achieved has remained less clear. In particular, it is unknown whether ubiquitously active enhancers exist and how developmental and housekeeping gene regulation is separated. An attractive hypothesis is that different types of core promoters might exhibit an intrinsic specificity towards certain types of enhancers. Here, we show that thousands of enhancers in D. melanogaster S2 cells and ovarian somatic cells (OSCs) exhibit a marked specificity towards one of two core promoters M-bM-^@M-^S one derived from a ubiquitously expressed ribosomal protein gene and another from a developmentally regulated transcription factor. Enhancers that activate the housekeeping core promoter are functional across the two different cell types, while developmental enhancers exhibit strong cell type specificity. Both enhancer classes differ in their overall genomic distribution, the functions of neighbouring genes,these genesM-bM-^@M-^Y core promoter elements, as well as the associated factors. Our results provide evidence for a sequence-encoded enhancer-core promoter specificity that separates developmental and housekeeping gene regulatory programs for thousands of enhancers and their target genes across the entire genome. STARR-seq was performed in S2 and OSC cells using two core promoters each representing housekeeping and developmental transcription programs. Data for housekeeping promoters (hkCP) are presented in this series; Data for developmental core promoters (dCP) samples are presented in GSE40739.

Comparative profiling of chromatin state maps and transcription factor occupancy during human fetal and adult erythropoiesis

Project description:We report the comparative investigation of genome-wide chromatin state maps, transcription factor (TF) occupancy, and gene expression profiles from developing red cell precursors at two developmental stages. Contrasting the similarities and differences between fetal and adult erythropoiesis provides important insights into the erythroid gene expression programs and gene regulatory networks. Specifically, comparative analyses of human erythropoiesis identify developmental stage-specific enhancers as primary determinants of stage-specific gene expression programs. We find that master regulators, such as GATA1 and TAL1, cooperatively act within active enhancers but have little predictive value for stage-specific enhancer activity. Instead, a set of stage-specific co-regulators collaborates with master regulators and contributes to differential gene expression. We further identify and validate IRF2, IRF6, and MYB as effectors of adult-stage expression program. Thus, the combinatorial assembly of master regulators and transcriptional co-regulators at developmental stage-specific enhancers controls gene expression programs and temporal regulation of transcriptional networks in a mammalian genome. Examination of various histone modifications and transcription factor occupancy by ChIP-seq in fetal and adult proerythroblasts.

Genome-wide histone modification and accessibility maps of mESCs, in the pluripotent state and after induced differentiation

Project description:Gene expression networks are tightly regulated by transcription factors (TF) and their targeted regulatory genomic elements (enhancers), which are known to correlate with specific histone modifications and chromatin accessibility. The identification of enhancers on a genome wide level is an important prerequisite for many functional studies, however the prediction of enhancer elements, especially with in response to changing conditions, remains challenging. Here we report the generation of a genome-wide mESC enhancer prediction map, comparing the pluripotent state and induced differentiation, by the integration of data on transcription, chromatin accessibility and multiple histone modifications.

Chromatin state signatures associated with tissue-specific gene expression and enhancer activity in the embryonic limb.

Project description:The regulatory elements that direct tissue-specific gene expression in the developing mammalian embryo remain largely unknown. Although chromatin profiling has proven to be a powerful method for mapping regulatory sequences in cultured cells, chromatin states characteristic of active developmental enhancers have not been directly identified in embryonic tissues. Here we use whole transcriptome analysis coupled with genome-wide profiling of H3K27ac and H3K27me3 to map chromatin states and enhancers in mouse embryonic forelimb and hindlimb. We show that gene expression differences between forelimb and hindlimb, and between limb and other embryonic cell types, are correlated with tissue-specific H3K27ac signatures at promoters and distal sites. Using H3K27ac profiles, we identified 28,377 putative enhancers, many of which are likely to be limb-specific based on strong enrichment near genes highly expressed in the limb and comparisons with tissue-specific p300 sites and known enhancers. We describe a chromatin state signature associated with active developmental enhancers, defined by high levels of H3K27ac marking, nucleosome displacement, hypersensitivity to sonication, and strong depletion of H3K27me3. We also find that developmental enhancers exhibit components of this signature, including hypersensitivity, H3K27ac enrichment and H3K27me3 depletion, at lower levels in tissues in which they are not active. Our results establish histone modification profiling as a tool for developmental enhancer discovery, and suggest that enhancers maintain an open chromatin state in multiple embryonic tissues independent of their activity level. Examination of genome wide H3K27ac and H3K27me3 histone modifications and gene expression in early mouse embryonic limb tissue.

Chromatin proteomics reveals novel combinatorial histone modification signatures that mark distinct subpopulations of macrophage enhancers

Project description:The integrated activity of cis-regulatory elements fine-tunes transcriptional programs of mammalian cells by recruiting cell type–specific as well as ubiquitous transcription factors (TFs). Despite their key role in modulating transcription, enhancers are still poorly characterized at the molecular level, and their limited DNA sequence conservation in evolution and variable distance from target genes make their unbiased identification challenging. The coexistence of high mono-methylation and low tri-methylation levels of lysine 4 of histone H3 is considered a signature of enhancers, but a comprehensive view of histone modifications associated to enhancers is still lacking. By combining chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) with mass spectrometry, we investigated cis-regulatory regions in macrophages to comprehensively identify histone marks specifically associated with enhancers, and to profile their dynamics after transcriptional activation elicited by an inflammatory stimulation. The intersection of the proteomics data with ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analyses revealed the existence of novel subpopulations of enhancers, marked by specific histone modification signatures: specifically, H3K36me2/K4me1 marks transcribed enhancers, while H3K36me3/K4me1 and H3K79me2/K4me1 combinations mark distinct classes of intronic enhancers. Thus, our MS analysis of functionally distinct genomic regions revealed the combinatorial code of histone modifications, highlighting the potential of proteomics in addressing fundamental questions in epigenetics.

ChIP-Seq of chromatin marks at distal enhancers in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells and adult tissues.

Project description:Enhancers are enriched by histone H3 lysine 4 mono methylation (H3K4me1). To gain insight into the relation between enhancers and developmental state, chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with massive parallel sequencing (ChIP-seq) was performed in several cell types to determine the genome-wide binding targets of H3K4me1 and several other possible enhancer associated modifications. DNA was enriched by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and analyzed by Solexa sequencing. A chromatin IP against histone H3 or whole cell extract was sequenced and used as the background to determine enrichment. ChIP was performed mainly using antibodies against the chromatin marks H3K4me1 and H3K27ac.
