Dynamic Chromatin Boundaries of TCR Loci Coincide V(D)J recombination During T Cell Development

ABSTRACT: Topologically Associating Domains (TADs) partition the genome into self-interacting regions through boundaries. Chromatin configuration plays a crucial role in TCR gene rearrangements, thereby affecting repertoire diversity. To assess the dynamics of chromatin boundaries within TCR genes, we conducted Hi-C assays on double-negative (DN) and double-positive (DP) cells from RAG-deficient mice. A chromatin boundary at the 3' end of the Tcrb locus observed in DN cells dissipated in DP cells, thereby altering interactions between the main Vβ cluster and the recombination center. Additionally, the INTs boundary in the Tcra-Tcrd locus disappeared in DP cells, leading to enhanced interactions between the proximal Vα region and recombination center at the Jα segments. Subsequent analysis revealed that the disappearance of boundaries was not attributable to diminished CTCF binding but rather heightened activity within these regions. This study illuminates the developmental dynamics of TAD boundaries in TCR genes, enriching our understanding of their evolving nature.

Gene expression analysis of thymocyte subsets

Project description:Mouse thymocytes can be classified into four major subsets based on expression of CD4 and CD8 co-receptors. CD4-CD8- (double negative, DN) cells become CD4+CD8+ (double positive, DP) cells following productive T cell receptor (TCR) beta chain rearrangement. A small proportion of DP cells are selected through interaction of clonal TCRalpha/beta and MHC self peptide complex expressed on thymic stromal cells. DP cell expressing MHC class I-restricted TCR become CD4-CD8+ cells, which will finally differentiate into cytotoxic T cells, while MHC class II restricted selection generates CD4+CD8- helper lineage T cells. We used microarrays to identify genes important for thymocyte differentiation and lineage determination by profiling gene expression in different thymocyte subsets. Mouse thymocytes were divided into four subsets based on CD4, CD8a, and TCRb expression and purified by flw cytometry. FACS purified DN (CD4-CD8a-TCRb-), DP (CD4+CD8a+), CD4SP (CD4+CD8a-TCRbhi) and CD8SP (CD4-CD8a+TCRbhi) populations were lysed in Trizol, and provided to the Genomics Core Facility of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) for quality control, quantification, reverse transcription, labeling and hybridization to MOE430A 2.0 microarray chips (Affymetrix). Arrays were scanned per the manufacturer’s specifications for the Affymetrix MOE430v2 chip.

A double negative thymocyte specific enhancer augments Notch1 signaling to direct early T cell progenitor expansion, lineage restriction and b-selection.

Project description:T-cell differentiation requires Notch1 signaling. Here we show that an enhancer upstream of Notch1 active in double-negative (DN) thymocytes is responsible for raising Notch1 signaling intra-thymically. This enhancer is required to expand multipotent progenitors intra-thymically while delaying early differentiation until lineage restrictions are established. Early thymic progenitors lacking the enhancer show accelerated differentiation through the DN stages and increased frequency of B-, ILC-, and NK-cell differentiation. Transcription regulators for T-cell lineage restriction and commitment are expressed normally, but ILC- and NK-cell gene expression persists after T-lineage commitment and TCR V-DJ recombination, Cd3 expression and -selection are impaired. This Notch1 enhancer is inactive in double-positive (DP) thymocytes. Its aberrant reactivation at this stage in Ikaros mutants is required for leukemogenesis. Thus, the DN-specific Notch1 enhancer harnesses the regulatory architecture of DN and DP thymocytes to achieve carefully orchestrated changes in Notch1 signaling required for early lineage restrictions and normal T-cell differentiation.

A discrete chromatin loop in the murine Tcra/Tcrd locus shapes the TCRδ and TCRα repertoires

Project description:The Tcra/Tcrd locus undergoes V(D)J recombination in CD4−CD8− double-negative (DN) thymocytes and CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP) thymocytes to generate diverse TCRδ and TCRα repertoires, respectively. Here we reveal a Tcra/Tcrd locus chromatin interaction network in DN thymocytes that is formed by interactions between CTCF-binding elements (CBEs). Disruption of a discrete chromatin loop encompassing the Dδ, Jδ and Cδ gene segments allows a single Vδ segment to frequently contact and rearrange to Dδ and Jδ segments and dominate the adult TCRδ repertoire. Disruption of this loop also narrows the TCRα repertoire, which, we believe, follows as a consequence of the restricted TCRδ repertoire. Hence, a single CTCF-mediated chromatin loop directly regulates TCRδ diversity and indirectly regulates TCRα diversity.

ROR t directs upregulation of RAG gene expression in DP thymocytes and serves as a multi-faceted regulator of the Tcra repertoire.

Project description:Naik et al. show that RAG gene upregulation in DP Thymocytes is controlled by DPASE, a DP-specific open chromatin region in RAG locus. Reduced RAG expression in DPASE KO mice result delayed and incomplete Tcra recombination. Transcription factor RORyt binds to DPASE and Tcra enhancer to regulate Tcra recombination in DP thymocytes.

Tcrd rearrangement redirects a processive Tcra recombination program to expand the Tcra repertoire

Project description:The Tcra-Tcrd locus undergoes Tcrd rearrangement in DN thymocytes followed by primary and secondary Tcra rearrangements in DP thymocytes. Here we reveal the mechanisms underpinning combinatorial diversity in the Tcra repertoire. We show that V-alpha and J-alpha segments on individual Tcra alleles are used in stepwise and coordinated proximal-to-distal progressions during primary and secondary rearrangements, substantially constraining combinatorial diversity. Notably, Tcrd recombination in DN thymocytes diversifies the Tcra repertoire by truncating the V-alpha array to permit otherwise disfavored V-J combinations. Such diversification is important, because Trav1-Traj33+ mucosa-associated invariant T cells are depleted when Tcrd rearrangement is impaired. Our results reveal an important biological advantage conferred by the nested organization of Tcrd and Tcra gene segments.

T-cell development

Project description:T cells develop from progenitors that migrate from the bone marrow into the thymus. Thymocytes are subdivided roughly as being double negative (DN), double positive (DP), or single positive (SP), based on the expression of the CD4 and CD8 coreceptors. The DN stage is heterogeneous and can be subdivided into four distinct subsets in mice based on the expression of CD44 and CD25. In human, three distinct DN stages can be recognized: a CD34+CD38−CD1a− stage that represents the most immature thymic subset and the consecutive CD34+CD38+CD1a− and CD34+CD38+CD1a+ stages. Human DN thymocytes mature via an immature single positive (ISP CD4+) and a DP stage into CD4+ or CD8+ SP T cells that express functional T cell receptors (TCR) and that exit the thymus. In this study, gene expression was measured in each of these nine stages.
