Project description:During limb development, Hoxd genes are transcribed in two waves: Early on, when the arm and forearm are specified and subsequently, when digits form. While the latter phase is controlled by enhancers centromeric to the HoxD cluster, we show here that the early phase requires enhancers located in the opposite telomeric gene desert. The transition between the two types of regulations involves a functional switch between two distinct topological domains, as reflected by a subset of genes mapping centrally into the cluster, which initially interact with the telomeric domain and subsequently shift to establish new contacts on the opposite side. This transition between two regulatory landscapes generates an intermediate area of low Hox dose developing into the wrist, the transition between our arms and our hands. This intriguing correspondence between genomic and morphological boundaries illustrates the mechanism underlying collinear Hox gene regulation in our developing appendages.

Project description:The transcriptional activation of HoxD genes during mammalian limb development involves dynamic interactions with two topologically associating domains (TADs) flanking the HoxD cluster. In particular, the activation of the most posterior HoxD genes in developing digits is controlled by regulatory elements located in the centromeric TAD (C-DOM) through long-range contacts.To assess the structure-function relationships underlying such interactions, we measured compaction levels and TAD discreteness using a combination of chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq) and DNA FISH. We assessed the robustness of the TAD architecture by using a series of genomic deletions and inversions that impact the integrity of this chromatin domain and that remodel long-range contacts. We report multi-partite associations between HoxD genes and up to three enhancers. We find that the loss of native chromatin topology leads to the remodeling of TAD structure following distinct parameters.Our results reveal that the recomposition of TAD architectures after large genomic re-arrangements is dependent on a boundary-selection mechanism in which CTCF mediates the gating of long-range contacts in combination with genomic distance and sequence specificity. Accordingly, the building of a recomposed TAD at this locus depends on distinct functional and constitutive parameters.
