Foxp3 exploits a pre-existent enhancer landscape for regulatory T cell lineage specification.

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells, whose identity and function are defined by the transcription factor Foxp3, are indispensable for immune homeostasis. It is unclear whether Foxp3 exerts its Treg lineage specification function through active modification of the chromatin landscape and establishment of new enhancers or by exploiting a pre-existing enhancer landscape. Analysis of the chromatin accessibility of Foxp3-bound enhancers in Treg and Foxp3-negative T cells showed that Foxp3 was bound overwhelmingly to preaccessible enhancers occupied by its cofactors in precursor cells or a structurally related predecessor. Furthermore, the bulk of Foxp3-bound Treg cell enhancers lacking in Foxp3(-) CD4(+) cells became accessible upon T cell receptor activation prior to Foxp3 expression, and only a small subset associated with several functionally important genes were exclusively Treg cell specific. Thus, in a late cellular differentiation process, Foxp3 defines Treg cell functionality in an "opportunistic" manner by largely exploiting the preformed enhancer network instead of establishing a new enhancer landscape.

Array expression. Three cell types with 3-5 replicates each.

Four transcription factors (Foxp3, Ets1, Elf1, and Cbfb) were immunoprecipated while crosslinked to chromatin. These experiments were then combined with DNase-seq data (being uploaded separately as part of ENCODE project) to find that Foxp3 binds exclusively to open chromatin. Data was also leveraged from GSE40657 and GSE33653.
