Chromatin priming elements direct tissue-specific gene activity prior to hematopoietic specification

ABSTRACT: Tissue-specific gene regulation during development involves the interplay between transcription factors and epigenetic regulators binding to enhancer and promoter elements. The pattern of active enhancers defines the cellular differentiation state. However, developmental gene activation involves a previous step called chromatin priming which is not fully understood. We recently developed a genome-wide functional assay that allowed us to functionally identify enhancer elements integrated in chromatin regulating each of five stages spanning the in vitro differentiation of embryonic stem cells to blood. We also measured global chromatin accessibility, histone modifications and transcription factor binding. The integration of these data identified and characterised cis-regulatory elements which become activated prior to the onset of gene expression, some of which are primed in a signalling-dependent fashion. Deletion of such a priming element leads to a delay in the upregulation of its associated gene in development. Our work uncovers the details of a complex network of regulatory interactions with the dynamics of early chromatin opening being at the heart of dynamic tissue-specific gene expression control.

Synergistic Activation of Inflammatory Cytokine Genes by Priming of Regulatory DNA Elements for Increased Transcription in Response to TLR Signaling

Project description:Synergistic activation of inflammatory cytokine genes by IFN-gamma and TLR signaling is important for innate immunity and inflammatory disease pathogenesis, but underlying mechanisms are not known. By obtaining over three billion bases of sequence from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA, we generated genome-wide chromatin-state maps of human primary monocytes under IFN-gamma-priming and TLR stimulation. We found that IFN-gamma induced genome-wide sustained occupancy of STAT1, IRF-1 and associated histone acetylation at TSS-proximal and distal regulatory elements and provided a synergy mechanism whereby IFN-gamma creates a primed chromatin environment to augment TLR-induced gene transcription, which suggest therapeutic approaches that selectively target priming mechanisms. Examination and comparison of the changes in TF binding and histone modification in human primary monocytes under different conditions.

3D genome organization during TGFB-induced transcription requires nuclear microRNA and G-quadruplexes

Project description:Studying the dynamics of three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure is essential to the understanding of biological processes in the nucleus. Integrative analysis of multi-omics data in recent publications have provided comprehensive and multilevel insight into 3D genome organization emphasizing its role for transcriptional regulation. While enhancers are regulatory elements that play a central role in the spatiotemporal control of gene expression, chromatin looping has been broadly accepted as a means for enhancer-promoter interactions yieldingcell-type-specific gene expression signatures. On the other hand, G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical DNA secondary structures that are enriched at promoters and related to increased gene expression, both. A role for G4s in promoter-distal regulatory elements, such as super-enhancers (SE), as well as in 3D genome organization and chromatin looping mediating long-range enhancer-promoter interactions has, however, remained elusive. Here we show that mature microRNA 9 (miR-9) is enriched at promoters and SE of genes that are inducible by tissue growth factor beta 1 (TGFB1) signaling. Further, we find that nuclear miR-9 is required for chromatin features related to increased transcriptional activity, such as broad domains of the euchromatin histone mark H3K4me3 (histone 3 tri-methylated lysine 4) and G4s. Moreover, we show that nuclear miR-9 is required for promoter-super-enhancer looping. Our study places a nuclear microRNA in the same structural and functional context with G4s and promoter-enhancer interactions during 3D genome organization and transcriptional activation induced by TGFB1 signaling, a critical regulator of proliferation programs in cancer and fibrosis.

Extensive epigenetic priming in multipotent progenitors precedes lineage specification in B-lymphocyte development.

Project description:B-lymphocyte development is dependent on the interplay between the chromatin landscape and lineage specific transcription factors. It has been suggested that B-lineage commitment is associated with major changes in the nuclear chromatin environment proposing a critical role for lineage specific transcription factors in the formation of the epigenetic landscape. In this report we have used chromosome conformation capture in combination with ATAC-seq analysis to enable highly efficient annotation of both proximal and distal transcriptional control elements to genes activated in B-lineage specification. A large majority of these genes were annotated to at least one regulatory element with an accessible chromatin configuration in multipotent progenitors. Furthermore, the majority of binding sites for the key regulators of B-lineage specification, EBF1 and PAX5, occurred in already accessible regions. EBF1 did, however, cause a dynamic change in ATAC-accessibility and was critical for an increase in distal promoter-enhancer interactions as well as high deposition of chromatin modulating co-factors associated with the establishment of the B-lineage program. Our data unravel an unappreciated level of epigenetic priming at regulatory elements annotated to lineage restricted genes and provide insight into the mechanisms by which lineage specific transcription factors act via already accessible elements in lineage specification.

Distinct roles for CDK-Mediator in controlling Polycomb-dependent chromosomal interactions and priming genes for induction (CaptureC)

Project description:Precise control of gene expression is essential for normal development. This is thought to rely on mechanisms that enable communication between gene promoters and other regulatory elements. In embryonic stem cells (ESCs) the CDK-Mediator (CDK-MED) complex has been reported to topologically link gene regulatory elements to enable gene expression and also prime genes for induction during differentiation. Here we discover that CDK-MED contributes little to overall genome organisation in ESCs, but interestingly has a specific and essential role in controlling interactions between inactive gene regulatory elements bound by the Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs). These interactions are facilitated by CDK-MED but rely on canonical PRC1. However, through separation of function experiments, we reveal that the collaboration between CDK-MED and cPRC1 in creating long-range interactions does not function to prime genes for induction during differentiation. Instead, we discover that priming relies on a topology-independent mechanism whereby the CDK module supports core Mediator engagement with gene promoters to support gene activation.
