Project description:A large fraction of the mammalian genome is organized into inactive chromosomal domains associated with the nuclear lamina. Using genomic repositioning assays we show that Lamina associated domains (LADs), spanning the developmentally regulated IgH and Cyp3a loci, contain transportable DNA regions that associate chromatin with the nuclear lamina and repress gene activity in fibroblasts. We characterized DNA regions within LADs that are functionally capable of positioning chromatin domains at the inner nuclear membrane (INM) lamina. We mapped and characterized the IgH and other LADs in murine fibroblasts. We show that these murine LADs have a unique chromatin structure with discrete boundaries. We demonstrate DNA regions within LADs that are capable of directing the association of chromatin domains with the INM-lamina as well as the silencing of a co-integrated reporter gene.

Project description:The nuclear lamina is a proteinaceous network of filaments that provide both structural and gene regulatory functions by tethering proteins and large domains of DNA, so-called lamin associated domains (LADs), to the periphery of the nucleus. LADs are a large fraction of the mammalian genome that are repressed, in part, by their association to the nuclear periphery. The genesis and maintenance of LADs is poorly understood as are the proteins that participate in these functions. In an effort to identify proteins that reside at the nuclear periphery and potentially interact with LADs, we have taken a two-pronged approach. First, we have undertaken an interactome analysis of the inner nuclear membrane bound LAP2β to further characterize the nuclear lamina proteome. To accomplish this, we have leveraged the BioID system, which previously has been successfully used to characterize the nuclear lamina proteome. Second, we have established a system to identify proteins that bind to LADs by developing a chromatin directed BioID system. We combined the BioID system with the m6A-tracer system which binds to LADs in live cells to identify LAD proximal and nuclear lamina proteins. In combining these datasets, we have further characterized the protein network at the nuclear lamina as well as identified putative LAD proximal proteins. Our analysis identifies many heterochromatin related proteins related to H3K9 methylation processes as well as many proteins related to cell cycle regulation identifying important proteins essential for LAD function.

Project description:Interactions of chromatin with the nuclear lamina via lamina-associated domains (LADs) confers structural stability to the genome. The dynamics of positioning of LADs during differentiation, and how LADs impinge on developmental gene expression, remains elusive, however. We examined changes in the association of lamin B1 with the genome in the first 72 hours of differentiation of adipose stem cells into adipocytes. We demonstrate a repositioning of entire stand-alone LADs and of LAD edges as a prominent nuclear structural feature of early adipogenesis. Whereas adipogenic genes are released from LADs, LADs sequester downregulated or repressed genes irrelevant for the adipose lineage. However, LAD repositioning only partly concurs with gene expression changes. Differentially expressed genes in LADs, including LADs conserved throughout differentiation, reside in local euchromatic and lamin-depleted sub-domains. In these sub-domains, pre-differentiation histone modification profiles correlate with the LAD versus inter-LAD outcome of these genes during adipogenic commitment. In addition, differentially expressed genes in LADs are linked to short-range enhancers which overall co-partition with these genes in LADs versus inter-LADs during differentiation. We conclude that LADs are predictable structural features of adipose nuclear architecture that restrain non-adipogenic genes in a repressive environment.

Project description:The nuclear lamina provides a repressive chromatin environment at the nuclear periphery. However, whereas most genes in lamina-associated domains (LADs) are repressed, approximately ten percent reside in local euchromatic contexts and are expressed. How these genes are regulated and whether they are able to contact regulatory elements in LADs or outside LADs remains unclear. Here, we integrate transcriptomic, chromatin states, microscopy and publicly available enhancer-capture Hi-C data to show that expressed genes in LADs are able to connect to enhancers in LADs and inter-LADs. Our data favor a model where the spatial topology of chromatin at the nuclear lamina is compatible with transcriptional regulation in this dynamic nuclear compartment.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is highly prevalent in type 2 diabetes mellitus and the elderly, impacting 40% of individuals over 70. Regulation of heterochromatin at the nuclear lamina has been associated with aging and age-dependent metabolic changes. We have shown that changes at the lamina in aged hepatocytes and laminopathy models lead to redistribution of lamina-associated domains (LADs), opening of repressed chromatin, and upregulation of genes regulating lipid synthesis and storage, culminating in fatty liver. Here we test the hypothesis that change in expression of lamina-associated proteins and nuclear shape leads to redistribution of LADs, followed by altered binding of pioneer factor FOXA2, uprregulation of lipid synthesis and storage, and culminating in steatosis in younger NAFLD patients (aged 21-51). Changes in nuclear morphology alter LAD partitioning and reduced lamin B1 signal correlates with increased FOXA2 binding prior to severe steatosis in young mice placed on Western det. Nuclear shape is also changed in younger NAFLD patients. LADs are redistrubted and Lamin B1 signal decreases similarly in mild and severe steatosis. In contrast, FOXA2 binding is similar in normal and NAFLD patients with moderate steatosis and is repositioned only in NAFLD patients with more severe lipid accumulation. Hence, changes at the nuclear lamina reshape FOXA2 binding with progression of the disease. Our results suggest a role for nuclear lamina in etiology of NAFLD, irrespective of aging, with potential for improved stratification of patients and novel treatments aimed at restoring nuclear lamina function.

Project description:How the earliest events in embryogenesis, including zygotic genome activation (ZGA) during maternal-to-zygotic transition influence chromatin remodelling remains unknown. Here, we have investigated the establishment of nuclear architecture, focusing on the remodelling of Lamina Associated Domains (LADs) during this transition. We report that LADs reorganize gradually in 2-cell embryos and that blocking ZGA leads to major changes in nuclear organisation.

Project description:Three-dimensional (3D) genome organization is thought to be important for regulation of gene expression. Chromosome conformation capture-based studies have uncovered ensemble organizational principles such as active (A) and inactive (B) compartmentalization. In addition, large inactive regions of the genome associate with the nuclear lamina, the Lamina Associated Domains (LADs). Here we investigate the dynamic relationship between A/B-compartment organization and the 3D organization of LADs. Using refined algorithms to identify active (A) and inactive (B) compartments from Hi-C data and to define LADs from DamID, we confirm that the LADs correspond to the B-compartment. Using specialized chromosome conformation paints, we show that LAD and A/B-compartment organization are dependent upon chromatin state and A-type lamins. By integrating single-cell Hi-C data with live cell imaging and chromosome conformation paints, we demonstrate that self-organization of the B-compartment within a chromosome is an early event post-mitosis and occurs prior to organization of these domains to the nuclear lamina.

Project description:Purpose: Many mammalian genes exhibit circadian expression patterns concordant with periodic binding of transcription factors, chromatin modifications and chromosomal interactions. We determined whether lamina-associated domains (LADs) display oscillatory circadian patterns of interaction with nuclear lamin B1 during hte circadian cycle, and identified any relationship to changes in gene expression patterns in oscillatory LADs or in their vinicity. Methods: To this end, we mapped LADs by chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) of lamin B1 (LMNB1) (antibody ab16048, Abcam) from mouse livers colected every 6 h, for 30 h, after entrainment of the circadian clock by 24-h fasting and refeeding. Gene expression profiles were also analyzed by RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) at the same time points. Results and Conclusions: We report periodic interactions of chromatin domains with nuclear lamin B1, suggesting rhythmic associations of fractions of the genome with the nuclear lamina. Entrainment of the circadian clock by fasting and refeeding is accompanied in mouse liver by a gain of lamin-chromatin interactions followed by oscillations in these interactions at hundreds of lamina-associated domains (LADs). A subset of these oscillations exhibit periodicity and affect one or both LAD borders or entire stand-alone LADs. Periodic LADs are however not a dominant feature of these variable LADs, as most LADs are conserved during the circadian cycle. LAD oscillations are for the most part asynchronous between the 5’ and 3’ ends of LADs. Periodic LADs also uncoupled from gene expression patterns, periodic or not, within or in vicinity of these LADs. Accordingly, periodic genes, including central clock-control genes, are located megabases away from LADs, suggesting their residence in a transcriptionally permissive environment throughout the circadian cycle. Our data suggest autonomous oscillatory associations of fractions of the genome with the nuclear lamina, providing new evidence for rhythmic spatial configurations of chromatin. However, our data also argue that periodic LADs constitute a minor fraction of variable LADs, and reflect stochasticity in variable lamin-chromatin interactions during the circadian cycle.
