Global mapping of RNA-chromatin contacts reveals a proximity-dominated connectivity model for ncRNA-gene interactions

ABSTRACT: Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are transcribed throughout the genome and provide regulatory inputs to gene expression through their interaction with chromatin. Yet, the genomic targets and functions of most ncRNAs are unknown. Here we use chromatin-associated RNA sequencing (ChAR-seq) to map the global network of ncRNA interactions with chromatin in human embryonic stem cells, and the dynamic changes in interactions during differentiation into definitive endoderm. We uncover general principles governing the organization of the RNA-chromatin interactome, demonstrating that nearly all ncRNAs exclusively interact with genes in close three-dimensional proximity to their locus, and provide a model predicting the interactome. We uncover RNAs that interact with many loci across the genome, and unveil thousands of unannotated RNAs that dynamically interact with chromatin. By relating the dynamics of the interactome to changes in gene expression, we demonstrate that activation or repression of individual genes is unlikely to be controlled by a single ncRNA.

RNA-Chromatin Interactome Reveals ncRNA Functions for Transcription Regulation in 3D Genome Organization

Project description:Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are an emerging class of regulatory molecules with a broad range of regulatory functions believed to be mediated by ncRNA-chromatin interactions. Genome-wide understanding of ncRNA functions requires precise mapping of all ncRNAs and their target loci. Current methods for studying chromatin-associated ncRNA lack specificity or are limited to singly assessing RNAs. We devised an unbiased strategy to identify all RNA Interactions with Chromatin by Paired-End-Taging (RICh-PET) and applied this approach to characterize the Drosophila RNA-chromatin interactome. We discovered that ncRNAs primarily target promoters and enhancers in open chromatin regions in colocalization with RNAPII and other TFs, suggesting combinatorial regulatory instructions for each locus. Enzymatic nuclear digestion followed by examination of specific chromatin loci indicated that ncRNAs collectively promote chromatin accessability, RNAPII-mediated interactions and overall 3D-genome organization. Our study demonstrates that RICh-PET and related methods represent a powerful suite of tools to interrogate the genome biology of ncRNAs.

Studying RNA-DNA interactome by Red-C identifies noncoding RNAs associated with various chromatin types and reveals transcription dynamics

Project description:Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) participate in various biological processes, including regulation of transcription and sustaining genome 3D organization. Here, we present a method called Red-C, which exploits proximity ligation to identify contacts with the genome for all RNA molecules present in the nucleus. Using Red-C, we uncover RNA-DNA interactome of human K562 cells and identify hundreds of ncRNAs enriched in active or repressed chromatin. We found two miRNAs, MIR3648 and MIR3867 transcribed from rRNA locus, that are associated with inactive chromatin genome-wide. These miRNAs favor bulk heterochromatin over Polycomb repressed one and interact preferentially with late-replicating genomic regions. Analysis of RNA-DNA interactome also allowed us to trace the kinetics of mRNA production. Our data support the model of co-transcriptional intron splicing, however, surprisingly, contradict the hypothesis of circularization of actively transcribed genes.

RDD reveals the landscape of RNA-associated chromatin DNA-DNA interactome and gene regulation

Project description:Although non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been proposed to play important roles in nuclear organization with three-dimensional (3D) conformation and gene transcription regulation, exploring the targeting and diffusion patterns of ncRNAs on chromatin has been challenging because it requires a technique that can simultaneously detect high-affinity sites and their higher-order contacts in 3D structures. Here we developed a new method, RNA-associated chromatin DNA-DNA interactions (RDD) in solution, which enables genome-wide detection of genomic binding sites and high-resolution chromatin interactions for a specific ncRNA. Using RDD to investigate the well-known ncRNA roX2 that involved in Drosophila dosage compensation, we not only recapitulate roX2 targeting chromatin sites but also reveal the landscape of chromatin DNA-DNA contacts at various resolutions from loops, domains to territories. We further show that roX2 anchors at the target gene TES and spreads around as a 'boot-like' structure for maintaining gene activity, where tethered daisy-chain chromatin loops, bridging to TSS to dock RNAPII-related contact hubs to achieve a precise twofold expression of male X-linked genes, further crossing active domains to form distinct hubs to exhibit the condensed properties of roX2 in high-throughput sequencing. These results provide a genome-wide 3D model for explaining the mechanism of ncRNA roX2 involved dosage compensation in Drosophila. Together, we demonstrate the high specificity and robustness of the RDD method to capture RNA-associated chromatin DNA-DNA interactome, which provides topological insights into the mechanism of gene transcription regulation by ncRNAs.

Unexpected diversity of chloroplast non-coding RNAs as revealed by deep sequencing of the Arabidopsis transcriptome

Project description:Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are widely expressed in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Eukaryotic ncRNAs are commonly small (18-25 nt) micro- and small interfering RNAs involved in post-transcriptional gene silencing, while prokaryotic ncRNAs vary in size and are involved in various aspects of gene regulation. Given the prokaryotic origin of organelles, the presence of ncRNAs might be expected, however, the full spectrum of organellar ncRNAs has not been determined systematically. Here, strand-specific RNA-Seq analysis was used to identify 107 candidate ncRNAs from Arabidopsis thaliana chloroplasts, primarily encoded opposite protein- coding and tRNA genes. Forty-eight ncRNAs were shown to accumulate by RNA gel blot as discrete transcripts in wild-type (WT) plants and/or the pnp1-1 mutant, which lacks the chloroplast ribonuclease polynucleotide phosphorylase (cpPNPase). Ninety-eight percent of the ncRNAs detected by RNA gel blot had different transcript patterns between WT and pnp1-1, suggesting cpPNPase has a significant role in chloroplast ncRNA biogenesis and accumulation. Analysis of materials deficient for other major chloroplast ribonucleases, RNase R, RNase E and RNase J, showed differential effects on ncRNA accumulation and/or form, suggesting specificity in RNase-ncRNA interactions. 5' end mapping showed that some ncRNAs are transcribed from dedicated promoters, while others result from transcriptional read-through. Finally, correlations between accumulation of some ncRNAs and the symmetrically-transcribed sense RNA are consistent with a role in RNA stability. Overall, our data suggest that this extensive population of ncRNAs has the potential to underpin a previously underappreciated regulatory mode in the chloroplast.

Genome-wide identification of RNA-chromatin interactions in Arabidopsis [GRO-seq]

Project description:It is increasingly evident that various RNA molecules can bind chromatin to regulate gene expression and genome organization. Here we adapted a sequencing-based technique to profile RNA-chromatin interactions at a genome-wide scale in Arabidopsis seedlings. We identified more than ten thousand RNA-chromatin interactions mediated by protein-coding RNAs, long non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and small ncRNAs in Arabidopsis. These RNAs preferentially target genic regions, especially exonic regions. Protein-coding RNAs primarily engage in local and cis-chromosomal interactions, whereas long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and small ncRNAs preferentially engage in trans-chromosomal interactions. RNA-chromatin interactions tend to positively correlate with DNA-DNA interactions, suggesting a role of DNA-DNA interactions in confining RNA-chromatin interactions and/or a role of RNA-chromatin interactions in shaping genome organization at a global level. We further show that some RNA-chromatin interactions undergo alterations in response to biotic and abiotic stresses. Our study provides a global view of RNA-chromatin interactions in Arabidopsis and a rich resource for future investigation of the regulatory roles of RNAs in gene expression and genome organization.

A strand-specific switch in noncoding transcription switches the function of a Polycomb/Trithorax response element

Project description:Polycomb/Trithorax response elements (PRE/TREs) can switch their function reversibly between silencing and activation, by mechanisms that are poorly understood. Here we show that a switch in forward and reverse noncoding transcription from the Drosophila vestigial (vg) PRE/TRE switches the status of the element between silencing (induced by the forward strand) and activation (induced by the reverse strand). In vitro, both ncRNAs inhibit PRC2 histone methyltransferase activity, but in vivo only the reverse strand binds PRC2. Overexpression of the reverse strand evicts PRC2 from chromatin and inhibits its enzymatic activity. We propose that interactions of RNAs with PRC2 are differentially regulated in vivo, allowing regulated inhibition of local PRC2 activity. Genome-wide analysis shows that strand switching of ncRNAs occurs at several hundred PcG binding sites in fly and vertebrate genomes. This work identifies a novel and potentially widespread class of PRE/TREs that switch function by switching the direction of ncRNA transcription. E(Z) and H3K27me3 profile in Drosophila embryos of two transgenic lines (pKC27.vg.fwd' and pKC27.vg.rev') that were crossed to daGAL4 in order to overexpress the forward or the reverse vg PRE/TRE ncRNA from an ectopic site ('site 1' in this study).

Functional and transcriptional profiling of non-coding RNAs in yeast reveal context-dependent phenotypes and in trans effects on the protein regulatory network

Project description:Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including the more recently identified Stable Unannotated Transcripts (SUTs) and Cryptic Unstable Transcripts (CUTs), are increasingly being shown to play pivotal roles in the transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of genes in eukaryotes. Here, we carried out a large-scale screening of ncRNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and provide evidence for SUT and CUT function. Phenotypic data on 372 ncRNA deletion strains in 23 different growth conditions were collected, identifying ncRNAs responsible for significant cellular fitness changes. Transcriptome profiles were assembled for 18 haploid ncRNA deletion mutants and 2 essential ncRNA heterozygous deletants. Guided by the resulting RNA-seq data we analysed the genome-wide dysregulation of protein coding genes and non-coding transcripts.
