High-resolution 3D genome structures via single-cell Micro-C uncovers cohesin-mediated enhancer-promoter loops [1000U]

ABSTRACT: In the metazoan genome, regulatory DNA elements called enhancers govern the precise spatiotemporal patterns of gene expression in specific cell types. However, how enhancers are spatially organized to regulate target genes remains poorly understood. Here, by improving the spatial resolution of single-cell 3D genome mapping to 5 kb with micrococcal nuclease in our new single-cell Micro-C method, we report a specialized 3D structure of enhancers termed “promoter stripes,” which start at the transcription start site (TSS) and extend in the direction of transcription on the contact map, linking the promoter to multiple downstream enhancers. Promoter stripes are formed by cohesin-mediated loop extrusion, which potentially brings multiple enhancers to the promoter. Furthermore, with high-resolution single-cell chromatin structures, we observed the prevalence of multi-enhancer hubs on genes with promoter stripes, wherein multiple enhancers form spatial cluster associating its promoter. Such observation was only made possible by single-cell 3D genome with the improved resolution.

Resolving the 3D landscape of transcription-linked mammalian chromatin folding

Project description:Whereas folding of mammalian genomes at the large scale of epigenomic compartments and topologically associating domains (TADs) is now relatively well-understood, how chromatin is folded below this scale remains largely unexplored in mammals. Here, we overcome this limitation using a high-resolution 3C-based method, Micro-C, and probe the links between 3D-genome organization and transcriptional regulation in mouse stem cells. Combinatorial binding of transcription factors, cofactors, and chromatin modifiers spatially segregate TAD regions into various finer-scale structures with distinct regulatory features (i.e. stripes, dots, and domains linking promoter-promoter (P-P) or enhancer-promoter (E-P), and bundle contacts between Polycomb regions). E-P stripes extending from the edge of domains predominantly link co-expressed loci, often independently of CTCF and cohesin occupancy. Acute inhibition of transcription disrupts the gene-related folding features without altering higher-order chromatin structures. Analysis of ligation events sheds light on both the putative loop extrusion model and the “two-start” zig-zag 30-nanometer model of the chromatin fiber. Our work uncovers the finer-scale genome organization that establishes novel functional links between chromatin folding and gene regulation.

The Dynamic Architecture of Hox Gene Clusters

Project description:The spatial and temporal control of Hox gene transcription is essential for patterning the vertebrate body axis. Although this process involves changes in histone posttranslational modifications, the existence of particular three-dimensional (3D) architectures remained to be assessed in vivo. Using high-resolution chromatin conformation capture methodology, we examined the spatial configuration of Hox clusters in embryonic mouse tissues where different Hox genes are active. When the cluster is transcriptionally inactive, Hox genes associate into a single 3D structure delimited from flanking regions. Once transcription starts, Hox clusters switch to a bimodal 3D organization where newly activated genes progressively cluster into a transcriptionally active compartment. This transition in spatial configurations coincides with the dynamics of chromatin marks, which label the progression of the gene clusters from a negative to a positive transcription status. This spatial compartmentalization may be key to process the collinear activation of these compact gene clusters. Examination of gene expression in 3 cell types. Examination of 2 different histone modifications in 2 cell types.

Construction of Danio rerio Asymmetrical Maps (DreAM)

Project description:Purpose: Construction of 3D zebrafish spatial transcriptomics data for studying the establishment of AP axis. Methods: We performed serial bulk RNA-seq data of zebrafish embryo at three development points. Using the published spatial transcriptomics data as references, we implemented Palette to infer spatial gene expression from bulk RNA-seq data and constructed 3D embryonic spatial transcriptomics. The constructed 3D transcriptomics data was then projected on zebrafish embryo images with 3D coordinates, establishing a spatial gene expression atlas named Danio rerio Asymmetrical Maps (DreAM). Results: DreAM provides a powerful platform for visualizing gene expression patterns on zebrafish morphology and investigating spatial cell-cell interactions. Conclusions: Our work used DreAM to explore the establishment of anteroposterior (AP) axis, and identified multiple morphogen gradients that played essential roles in determining cell AP positions. Finally, we difined a hox score, and comprehensively demonstrated the spatial collinearity of Hox genes at single-cell resolution during development.

Polymer-mediated oligo delivery enables construction of spatially encoded 3D cultures for analysis by single-cell RNA sequencing

Project description:Spatial transcriptomics has been widely used to capture gene expression profiles, which are realised as a two-dimensional (2D) projection of RNA captured from tissue sections. Three-dimensional (3D) cultures such as spheroids and organoids are highly promising alternatives to overly simplistic and homogeneous 2D cell culture models, but existing spatial transcriptomic platforms do not have sufficient resolution and RNA capture efficiency for robust analysis of 3D cultures. We present a transfection-based method for fluorescent DNA barcoding of cell populations, and the subsequent construction of spheroidal cellular architectures using barcoded cells in a layer-by-layer approach. For the first time, changes in gene expression throughout this 3D culture architecture are interrogated using multiplex single-cell RNA sequencing in which DNA barcodes encode the spatial positioning of cells. We show that transfection with fluorophore-conjugated barcode oligonucleotides enables both imaging and sequencing at single-cell resolution, providing spatial maps of gene expression and drug response. Additionally, we show that fluorescently-tagged DNA barcodes support correlative imaging studies such as quantitative microelastography (QME) to capture information about mechanical heterogeneity in 3D cultures, also with spatial resolution. The ability to create customised, spatially encoded cellular assemblies is a general approach that can resolve spatial differences in gene expression in 3D cell culture models.
