Epigenomic analysis of Alzheimer's disease brains reveals diminished CTCF binding on genes involved in synaptic organization

ABSTRACT: Epigenetic aberrations are suggested to play an important role in transcriptional alterations in Alzheimer's disease (AD). One of the key mechanisms of epigenetic regulation of gene expression is through the dynamic organization of chromatin structure via the master genome architecture protein, CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF). By forming chromatin loops, CTCF can influence gene transcription in a complex manner. To find out whether genome-wide DNA binding sites for CTCF are altered in AD, we compared CTCF chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) data from frontal cortex of human AD patients and normal controls (n=9 pairs, all females). We have revealed that CTCF-binding affinity on many genes is significantly reduced in AD patients, and these genes are enriched in synaptic organization, cell adhesion, and actin cytoskeleton, including synaptic scaffolding molecules and receptors, such as SHANK2, HOMER1, NRXN1, CNTNAP2 and GRIN2A, and protocadherin (PCDH) and cadherin (CDH) family members. By comparing transcriptomic data from AD patients, we have discovered that many of the synaptic and adhesion genes with reduced CTCF binding in AD are significantly reduced in their mRNA expression. Moreover, a significant overlap of genes with the diminished CTCF binding and the reduced H3K27ac is identified in AD, with the common genes enriched in synaptic organization. These data suggest that the CTCF-controlled 3D chromatin organization is perturbed in AD, which may be linked to the diminished expression of target genes, probably through changes in histone modification.

Systematic assessment of ISWI subunits reveals that NURF creates local accessibility for proper CTCF function

Project description:Catalytic activity of the ISWI family of remodelers is critical for nucleosomal organization and transcription factor binding, including the insulator protein CTCF. To define which subcomplex mediates these diverse functions we phenotyped a panel of isogenic mouse stem cell lines each lacking one of six ISWI accessory subunits. Individual deletions of either CERF, RSF1, ACF, WICH or NoRC subcomplexes only moderately affect the chromatin landscape, while removal of the NURF-specific subunit BPTF leads to drastic reduction in chromatin accessibility and Snf2h ATPase localization around CTCF sites. While this reduces distances to the adjacent nucleosomes it only modestly impacts CTCF binding itself. In absence of accessibility, the insulator function of CTCF is nevertheless impaired resulting in lower occupancy of cohesin and cohesin-loading factors, and reduced insulation at these sites, highlighting the need of NURF-mediated remodeling for open chromatin and proper CTCF function. Our comprehensive analysis reveals a specific role for NURF in mediating Snf2h localization and chromatin opening at bound CTCF sites showing that local accessibility is critical for cohesin binding and insulator function.

Cohesin and CTCF Differentially Affect the Chromatin Architecture and Gene Expression in Human Cells

Project description:Recent studies of genome-wide chromatin interactions have revealed that the human genome is partitioned into many self-associating topological domains. The boundary sequences are enriched for binding sites of CTCF and the cohesin complex, implicating these two factors in the establishment or maintenance of topological domains. To determine the role of cohesin and CTCF in higher order chromatin architecture in human cells, we proteolytically cleaved the cohesin complex from interphase chromatin and examined changes in chromosomal organization as well as transcriptome. We observed a general loss of local chromosomal interactions upon disruption of cohesin complex, but the topological domains remain intact. However, we found that depletion of CTCF by RNA interference in these cells not only reduced intra-domain interactions but also increased inter-domain interactions. Further more, distinct groups of genes become mis-regulated upon depletion of cohesin and CTCF. Taken together, these observations suggest that CTCF and cohesin contribute in different ways to chromatin organization and gene regulation.

LATS kinase-mediated selective disruption of CTCF genomic binding

Project description:We identified CTCF as a substrate of the LATS kinases. Under cellular stress conditions that activated LATS, CTCF was phosphorylated in a LATS-dependent manner and lost DNA-binding activity. LATS signaling target genes resided in CTCF-mediated insulated neighborhoods and depended on such chromatin organization to sustain their expression. Genome-wide CTCF DNA-binding profiling revealed that metabolic stress reduced CTCF occupancy specifically at a small subset of CTCF-binding sites that encompassed many LATS target genes and were most significantly associated with LATS signaling. Dissociation of CTCF from LATS target genes disrupted corresponding CTCF-mediated chromatin domains and downregulated LATS target gene expression.

Exploring the interaction between the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex and the zinc finger factor CTCF

Project description:The transcription factor CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) modulates pleiotropic functions mostly related to gene expression regulation. The role of CTCF in large scale genome organization is also well established. A unifying model to explain relationships between many CTCF-mediated activities involve direct or indirect interactions with numerous protein cofactors recruited to specific binding sites. The co-association of CTCF with other architectural proteins such as cohesin, chromodomain helicases and BRG1 further support the interplay between master regulators of mammalian genome folding. Here we report a comprehensive LC-MS/MS mapping of the components of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex co-associated with CTCF including subunits belonging to the core, signature and ATPase modules. We further show that the localization patterns of representative SWI/SNF members significantly overlap with CTCF sites on transcriptionally active chromatin regions. Moreover, we provide evidence of a direct binding of the BRK-BRG1 domain to the zinc finger motifs 4-8 of CTCF, thus suggesting that these domains mediate the interaction of CTCF with the SWI/SNF complex. These findings provide an updated view of the cooperative nature between CTCF and the SWI/SNF ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes, an important step for understanding how these architectural proteins collaborate to shape the genome.

Promoter-proximal CTCF binding promotes distal enhancer-dependent gene activation IV

Project description:The CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is widely regarded as a key player in chromosome organization in mammalian cells, yet direct assessment of its role in genome architecture and gene regulation has been difficult. Here, we use auxin-inducible degron techniques to acutely deplete CTCF to determine how loss of CTCF affect chromatin organization and gene expression. In mouse embryonic stem cells, depletion of CTCF results in rapid loss of chromatin loops anchored at CTCF-binding sites without major disruption to chromatin compartments and topological domains. In the absence of CTCF, many lineage-specific genes fail to express properly during differentiation to neural precursor cells, but transcriptional regulation of most genes is unaffected. Genes dependent on CTCF for induction are generally bound by the factor at promoters, which are connected to distal enhancers via CTCF-dependent chromatin loops. By contrast, CTCF-independent genes generally lack CTCF binding at the promoter and are generally closer to enhancers. These results refine our understanding of CTCF function in chromatin organization and gene regulation.

CTCF binding polarity determines chromatin looping [4C]

Project description:CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is an architectural protein involved in the three-dimensional organization of chromatin. In this study, we systematically assayed the 3D genomic contact profiles of hundreds of CTCF binding sites in multiple tissues with high-resolution 4C-seq. We find both developmentally stable and dynamic chromatin loops. As recently reported, our data also suggest that chromatin loops preferentially form between CTCF binding sites oriented in a convergent manner. To directly test this, we used CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing to delete core CTCF binding sites in three loci, including the CTCF site in the Sox2 super-enhancer. In all instances, CTCF and cohesin recruitment were lost, and chromatin loops with distal CTCF sites were disrupted or destabilized. Re-insertion of oppositely oriented CTCF recognition sequences restored CTCF and cohesin recruitment, but did not re-establish chromatin loops. We conclude that CTCF binding polarity plays a functional role in the formation of higher order chromatin structure. 4C-seq was performed on a large number of viewpoints in E14 embryonic stem cells, neural precursor cells and primary fetal liver cells

SATB1 Regulates 3D Genome Architecture in T cells by Constraining Chromatin Interactions surrounding CTCF-binding sites [RNA-seq]

Project description:Spatial genome organization is critical for precise gene regulation during development. Special AT-rich sequence binding protein 1 (SATB1) has long been proposed to act as a global chromatin loop organizer in T cells. However, the exact functions of SATB1 in genome organization remain elusive. Here we show that the depletion of SATB1 in human and murine T cells led to transcriptional dysregulation for genes involved in T cell activation, as well as alterations of 3D genome architecture at multiple scales, including the A/B compartment, topologically associating domains (TADs), and loops. Importantly, SATB1 extensively colocalizes with CTCF throughout the genome. Depletion of SATB1 led to increased chromatin contacts among and across the SATB1/CTCF co-occupied sites, thereby affecting the transcription of critical genes involved in T cell activation. The loss of SATB1 did not affect the genome-wide occupancy of CTCF, but significantly reduced the retention of CTCF in the nuclear matrix. Collectively, our data reveal that SATB1 constrains chromatin topology surrounding CTCF-binding sites by tethering CTCF to the nuclear matrix, and suggest that the functional interplay between SATB1 and CTCF contributes to 3D genome organization.
