Human genomic DNA is widely interspersed with i-motif structures

ABSTRACT: DNA i-motif structures are formed in the nuclei of human cells and are believed to provide critical genomic regulation. While the existence of i-motif structures in human cells has been demonstrated by immunofluorescent staining and by the characterisation of select model genes, the abundance and distribution of such structures in the human genome have remained unclear. Here we utilise high affinity i-motif immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing to map i-motifs in the genomic DNA of human MCF7, U2OS and HEK293T cells. Validated by biolayer interferometry and circular dichroism spectroscopy, our approach identified i-motif structures that are widely distributed throughout the human genome and are common in genes upregulated in G0/G1 cell cycle phases.

Enhancers display sequence flexibility constrained by transcription factor motif syntax [Drosophila motif pasting STARR-seq]

Project description:The information about when and where each gene is to be expressed is mainly encoded in the DNA sequence of enhancers, sequence elements that comprise binding sites (motifs) for different transcription factors (TFs). Most of the research on enhancer sequences has been focused on TF motif presence, while the enhancer syntax, i.e. the flexibility of important motif positions and how the sequence context modulates the activity of TF motifs, remain poorly understood. Here, we explore the rules of enhancer syntax by a two-pronged approach in Drosophila melanogaster S2 cells: we (1) replace important motifs by an exhaustive set of all possible 65,536 eight-nucleotide-long random sequences and (2) paste eight important TF motif types into 763 motif positions within 496 enhancers. These complementary strategies reveal that enhancers display constrained sequence flexibility and the context-specific modulation of motif function. Important motifs can be functionally replaced by hundreds of sequences constituting several distinct motif types, but only a fraction of all possible sequences and motif types restore enhancer activity. Moreover, TF motifs contribute with different intrinsic strengths that are strongly modulated by the enhancer sequence context (the flanking sequence, presence and diversity of other motif types, and distance between motifs), such that not all motif types can work in all positions. Constrained sequence flexibility and the context-specific modulation of motif function are also hallmarks of human enhancers and TF motifs, as we demonstrate experimentally. Overall, these two general principles of enhancer sequences are important to understand and predict enhancer function during development, evolution and in disease.
