THE EPIGENOME PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE IN TOMATO 3D CHROMATIN ORGANIZATION [Hi-C]

ABSTRACT: Understanding the 3D genome organization in the nucleus is becoming increasingly crucial given its involvement in many processes from transcription to the integrity of the nucleus itself, which play a role in every stage of an organism's life. Beyond the linear genome defined by its nucleotide sequence, this organization is also governed by its epigenome, but how the latter controls the 3D architecture of the nucleus is poorly understood. To decipher the epigenome influence on the formation of all levels of the nuclear organization, we studied tomato mutants defective for DDM1, a chromatin remodeler determining for the constitutive heterochromatin establishment. We observed that the ddm1 mutant exhibited weakened compartmentalization with lower insulation, more inter-compartment contacts and an increase in long-range contacts. This disorganization is accompanied by a reconfiguration of the epigenome, ultimately resulting in a reprogramming of its transcriptome. By integrating all our data, we have shown that this redistribution of the epigenome is linked to the global disorganization of the nucleus notably via new interactions mediated by H3K27me3, and is also related to new interactions between genes and/or TEs which display the same epigenetic characteristics. Altogether, our results strongly suggest that epigenetic features drive the formation of distinct compartments by playing a segregating role between active and inactive chromatin, becoming an essential characteristic for the identity of genes and TEs in terms of genome organization.

Predicting modulaters of TE-driven chromatin 3D structure (RNA-seq)

Project description:DNA is tightly packaged in the human nucleus and is wrapped in complex three-dimensional (3D) structures that have been implicated in regulatory processes However, no comprehensive model describes the formation of the 3D genome. At least 40% of the human genome consists of fossilized inactive transposable element (TE) sequences. A role for TEs in 3D genome structure has been suggested by several studies that illustrate how TEs are involved in 3D genome formation. However mechanisms that mediate the formation of TE-mediated 3D contacts is lacking. As TEs are rich in TF binding sites it seems likely that TFs bound to TEs are responsible for forming the 3D genome structure. We used the comprehensive TF binding data available in human and mouse pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), coupled with HiC data to explore the role of TFs bound to TEs in 3D genome organization. Based on these computational predictions we divide TFs into three main classes, those that utilize TEs to drive 3D genome formation, those that are neutral, and a third class that breaks 3D contacts at specific TEs. We then experimentally validate four proteins, and show that SMARCA5 and MAFK are involved in promoting chromatin contacts at TEs, whilst E2F6 and KDM1A are disruptive.

Epigenetic reprogramming and small RNA silencing of transposable elements in pollen.

Project description:The mutagenic activity of transposable elements (TEs) is suppressed by epigenetic silencing and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), especially in gametes that would transmit transposed elements to the next generation. In pollen from the model plant Arabidopsis, we show that TEs are unexpectedly reactivated and transpose, but only in the pollen vegetative nucleus, which accompanies the sperm cells but does not provide DNA to the fertilized zygote. TE expression coincides with down-regulation of the heterochromatin remodeler DECREASE IN DNA METHYLATION 1 and of most TE siRNAs. However, 21 nucleotide siRNA from Athila retrotransposons is generated in pollen and accumulates in sperm, indicating that siRNA from TEs activated in the vegetative nucleus can target silencing in gametes. We propose a conserved role for reprogramming in germline companion cells, such as nurse cells in insects and vegetative nuclei in plants, to reveal intact TEs in the genome and regulate their activity in gametes. Mature pollen was collected from Columbia reference strain plants by vacuum filtration (Johnson-Brousseau and McCormick, 2004). DNA and RNA were isolated from a ddm1-2 plant in the Columbia reference background. Small RNAs of 19–28 nt were size selected by denaturing 15% PAGE, and cloned as in Brennecke et al. (2007). Additional details regarding the cloning of small RNAs are found in the Supplemental Data. The small RNA libraries were sequenced on Illumina 1G sequencer. The total number of sequences perfectly matching the Arabidopsis genome were as follows: WT inflorescence, 4,158,848 (2,286,133 unique); WT pollen, 1,034,665 (437,984 unique); ddm1 inflorescence, 4,098,772 (1,637,771 unique); and WT sperm, 760,651 (429,972 unique).

Fine-scale chromatin interaction maps reveal the cis-regulatory landscape of lincRNA genes in human cells

Project description:Characterizing the relationship between genome form and function requires methods both for zooming out, to globally survey the genomic architectural landscape, and for zooming in, to investigate regions of interest at high resolution. High throughput methods based on chromosome conformation capture (3C) have greatly advanced our understanding of the three-dimensional (3D) organization of genomes, but are limited in resolution by their reliance on restriction enzymes. Here we describe a method for comprehensively mapping global chromatin contacts that uses DNaseI for chromatin fragmentation, leading to greatly improved efficiency and resolution. Coupling this method with DNA capture technology provides a high-throughput approach for targeted mapping of fine-scale chromatin architecture. We applied targeted DNase Hi-C to characterize the 3D organization of 1,030 lincRNA promoters in two human cell lines, and identified thousands of high-confidence lincRNA promoter-associated chromatin contacts at 1 kilobase pair (kbp) resolution. Detailed analysis of these contacts reveals that expression of lincRNAs is tightly controlled by complex mechanisms involving both super-enhancers and the polycomb repressive complex. Our results provide the first glimpse of the cell-type-specific 3D organization of lincRNA genes. DNase Hi-C assay (x1 replicate) in H1 and K562 cells, respectively. Targeted DNase Hi-C assays of the 220kb promoter-enhancer library (x1 replicate) and the 5Mb lincRNA promoter library (x2 replicate), in H1 and K562 cells, respectively.

Widespread rearrangement of 3D chromatin organization underlies Polycomb-mediated stress-induced silencing [Hi-C]

Project description:Chromosomes of metazoan organisms are partitioned in the interphase nucleus into discrete topologically associating domains (TADs). Borders between TADs are preferentially formed in regions containing high density of active genes and clusters of architectural protein binding sites. Transcription of most genes is turned off during the heat shock response in Drosophila. Here we show that temperature stress induces relocalization of architectural proteins from TAD borders to inside TADs, and this is accompanied by a dramatic rearrangement in the 3D organization of the nucleus. TAD border strength declines, allowing for an increase in long-distance inter-TAD interactions. Similar but quantitatively weaker effects are observed upon inhibition of transcription or depletion of individual architectural proteins. New heat shock-induced inter-TAD interactions result in increased contacts among enhancers and promoters of silenced genes, which recruit Pc and form Pc bodies at the nucleolus. These results suggest that the TAD organization of metazoan genomes is plastic and can be quickly reconfigured to allow new interactions between distant sequences. Analysis of 3D chromatin organization using Hi-C in Drosophila Kc167 cells. Cells were grown at 25 C and heat shocked for 20 min at 36.5 C. Cells were also treated with flavopiridol or triptolide to inhibit transcription elongation or initiation, respectively. Cells were depeleted of Cap-H2 or Rad21 using RNAi. Finally, cells depleted of RAd21 were subjected to heat shock at 36.5 C for 20 min.

Full-length autonomous transposable elements are preferentially targeted by expression-dependent forms of RNA-directed DNA methylation

Project description:The diversity of small RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) mechanisms have been underestimated due to the nearly complete transcriptional silencing of transposable elements (TEs) in the wild-type reference strains of Arabidopsis thaliana. In plants mutant for the SWI/SNF histone remodeler DDM1, TEs are globally activated due to loss of genome wide heterochromatin condensation. Transcriptionally activated TEs go through additional non-canonical forms of RdDM that are dependent on RNA Polymerase II expression. However, the global targets of the non-canonical RdDM pathway have not been explored. In an attempt to identify and contrast the targets of canonical and expression-dependent non-canonical RdDM, we performed MethylC-seq of genome-wide DNA methylation patterns from several RdDM mutants in either the TE-silent or the TE-active (ddm1) contexts. Arabidopsis wildtype and twenty RdDM pathway mutants

Comparing the targets of distinct RNA Directed DNA Methylation mechanisms in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:The diversity of small RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) mechanisms have been underestimated due to the nearly complete transcriptional silencing of transposable elements (TEs) in the wt Col ecotype of Arabidopsis thaliana. In plants mutant for the SWI/SNF2 histone remodeler DDM1, TEs are globally activated due to loss of genome wide heterochromatin condensation. Activated TEs go through additional non-canonical forms of RdDM. However, the global targets of the non-canonical RdDM pathway are unidentified. In an attempt to identify and contrast the targets of canonical and non-canonical RdDM, we sequenced small RNAs from several RdDM mutants in either the TE-silent or the TE-active (ddm1) contexts. Examination of unopened flower bud small RNAs from wild type and various single or double mutant combinations, many of which have biological replicates. Small RNA sequences from wt Col, controls and other mutants shown in the study are available at GSE41755 and GSE57191.

Clustering of CpG islands constitutes an important determinant of the interphase chromosome 3D organization [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Using 4C-Seq experimental procedure we have characterized, in cultured chicken lymphoid and erythroid cells, genome-wide patterns of spatial contacts of several CpG islands scattered along the chromosome 14. A clear tendency for interaction of CpG islands present within the same and different chromosomes has been observed. Accordingly, preferential spatial contacts between Sp1 binding motifs, and other GC-rich genomic elements including DNA sequence motifs capable to form G-quadruplexes were demonstrated. On the other hand, an anchor placed in gene/CpG islands-poor area was found to form spatial contacts with other gene/CpG islands-poor areas within chromosome 14 and other chromosomes. These results corroborate the two compartments model of interphase chromosome spatial organization and suggest that clustering of CpG islands harboring promoters and origins of DNA replication constitutes an important determinant of the 3D organization of eukaryotic genome in the cell nucleus. Using ChIP-Seq experimental procedure we have mapped genome-wide the CTCF deposition sites in chicken lymphoid and erythroid cells subjected to the 4C analysis. A good correlation between the density of these sites and the level of 4C signals was observed for the anchors located in CpG islands. It is thus possible that CTCF contributes to the clustering of CpG islands revealed in our experiments. Using ChIP-Seq experimental procedure we have mapped genome-wide the CTCF deposition sites in chicken lymphoid and erythroid cells subjected to the 4C analysis. CTCF deposition sites in chicken lymphoid and erythroid (induced and non-induced) cells.
