Project description:From the cell-based investigation, RBPJ is one of the few proteins retained on chromatin during cell division. ChIP-seq experiments were performed to understand the binding pattern of RBPJ between interphase and mitosis and to identify the genes requiring RBPJ binding for the maintenance of transcriptional memory. Our results indicate that ~60% of RBPJ occupancy in interphase is retained on mitotic chromatin, and that accounts for 80% of RBPJ in mitosis. The gene ontology analysis reveals that the genes involved in stem cell maintenance, development and differentiation-related pathways correlated with sites of RBPJ occupancy. GO analysis also suggests that RBPJ plays a role in the metabolism and processing of non-coding RNAs. Motif analysis of RBPJ binding sites reveals that not only RBPJ motif but also CTCF motif are enriched around RBPJ binding sites. From these results, we propose that RBPJ can function as a mitotic bookmark, marking genes for efficient transcriptional activation or repression upon exit from mitosis, and may play a role in higher order chromatin structure by collaborating with CTCF. To compare the genomic RBPJ localization in mitotic and interphase cells, mouse F9 cells were harvested and labeled as cycling cells (containing 95% interphase and 5% mitosis cells); nocodazole treated F9 cells were harvested and labeled as mitotic cells. Cell samples were proceeded to ChIP-seq experiments, and each of the experiment contains a set of ChIP DNA product: input as the background control and IP as the RBPJ binding product. Background noise was substracted and the obtained signal was used for the comparison of interphase and mitosis by statistical analysis. Please note that processed data (*bed) was generated from *rep1 sample (i.e. no processed-data for rep2 sample).

Project description:In mitosis, most transcription factors detach from chromatin, but some are retained and bookmark genomic sites. Mitotic bookmarking has been implicated in lineage inheritance, pluripotency and reprogramming. However, the biological significance of this mechanism in vivo remains unclear. Here, we address mitotic retention of the hemogenic factors GATA2, GFI1B and FOS during haematopoietic specification. We show that GATA2 remains bound to chromatin throughout mitosis, in contrast to GFI1B and FOS, via C-terminal zinc finger-mediated DNA binding. GATA2 bookmarks a subset of its interphase targets that are co-enriched for RUNX1 and other regulators of definitive haematopoiesis. Remarkably, homozygous mice harbouring the cyclin B1 mitosis degradation domain upstream Gata2 partially phenocopy knockout mice. Degradation of GATA2 at mitotic exit abolishes definitive haematopoiesis at aorta-gonad-mesonephros, placenta and foetal liver, but does not impair yolk sac haematopoiesis. Our findings implicate GATA2-mediated mitotic bookmarking as critical for definitive haematopoiesis and highlight a dependency on bookmarkers for lineage commitment.

Project description:During mitosis, RNA polymerase and most transcription factors are excluded from the chromosomes and transcription ceases. The transcriptional re-activation of the genome, following mitosis, requires the re-setting of cell-type specific programs that were initially established during development. However, only about one-fifth of transcription factors are retained on chromosomes throughout mitosis and a subset of these have been shown to facilitate target gene reactivation during mitotic exit. How such M-bM-^@M-^\bookmarkingM-bM-^@M-^] factors bind to chromatin in mitosis and re-activate transcription is central to the stability of transcriptional programs across multiple cell cycles. We compared a diverse set of transcription factors involved in liver differentiation and found different modes of mitotic chromosome binding. The pioneer transcription factor FoxA1, which is among the first to bind liver genes in development, exhibits virtually complete mitotic chromosome binding, whereas other liver factors bind with a range of efficiencies. Yet genome-wide analysis shows that only about 15% of the FoxA1 interphase target sites are bound in mitosis; the latter include sites at genes for maintaining cell differentiation. FoxA1 mutants that perturb specific and nonspecific DNA binding reveal a significant contribution of nonspecific binding events in mitotic chromatin. Such nonspecific binding appears to spread from interphase FoxA1 targets and may serve as storage sites. The hierarchy of specific binding, nonspecific binding, partial chromatin binding, and failure to bind mitotic chromosomes reflects the temporal sequence of the factorsM-bM-^@M-^Y developmental roles in gene activation. Three replicate chIP-seq data sets each are included for mitotic and asynchronously cycling cells; a single input lane from each condition is also included.

Project description:Epigenetic regulation of gene expression, including by Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins, may depend on heritable chromatin states but how these states can be propagated through mitosis is unclear. Using immunofluorescence and biochemical fractionation, we find PcG proteins associated with mitotic chromosomes in Drosophila S2 cells. Genome-wide sequencing of chromatin immunoprecipitations (ChIP-SEQ) from mitotic cells indicates that Posterior Sex Combs (PSC) and Polyhomeotic (PH) are not present at well-characterized PcG targets including Hox genes in mitosis, but do remain at 11% of their interphase sites. 26% of interphase PSC sites overlap with recently described chromatin domain borders (Sexton et al., 2012), which are genomic regions characterized by low levels of long range contacts. PSC and PH are preferentially retained at these sites in mitosis, including borders flanking both Hox gene clusters. We hypothesize that disruption of long range chromatin contacts in mitosis contributes to PcG protein release from most sites, while persistent binding at sites with minimal long range contacts may nucleate re-establishment of PcG binding and chromosome organization after mitosis.

Gene expression was assessed in asynchronously cycling cells in order to determine whether FoxA1 is disposed to bind to high- or low-expressed genes during mitosis. Heatmap analysis shows that FoxA1's mitotic targets are among the highest-expressed genes in asynchronous cells. Total RNA was collected from three different plates with asynchronous HUH7 cells using the RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen Valencia CA). Expression microarrays were performed with a Human Gene 1.OST array (Affymetrix) at the UPenn Microarray Core Facility and assessed using Partek.

Drosophila S2 cells were colchicine-treated and stained with anti-H3S10p antibody and FACS sorted to give mitotic samples. In parallel asynchronous Drosophila S2 cell cultures were stained for anti-H3 antibody and FACS sorted to give control samples. Chromatin from each of these sorted populations was immunoprecipitated using biotinylated antibodies against PSC. Two replicates of these samples are included. A stable Drosophila S2 cell line expressing biotin-tagged PH was also FACS sorted as above to give mitotic and control samples, and streptavidin-coated beads were used to pulldown biotinlyated PH. Inputs are included for each sample.

Project description:CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF), a conserved and essential regulator of genome architecture bearing a unique complement of 11 zinc fingers (ZFs), has been reported to remain associated with chromatin throughout mitosis and has thus been proposed to act as a bookmark to ensure rapid reestablishment of chromatin structure after cell division. However, little is known about how CTCF is regulated during mitosis. Using a phospho-specific antibody, we found that phosphorylation of CTCF threonine 431, contained within an atypical ZF linker unique to vertebrate CTCF, is highly enriched in mitotic cells and that this phosphorylated form of CTCF is preferentially localized to mitotic chromosomes. We show that T431 mutations abolish the association of CTCF with mitotic chromatin, arguing that T431 phosphorylation is necessary for CTCF mitotic retention. Furthermore, mutation of the CTCF paralog BORIS to accommodate phosphorylation at the residue corresponding to CTCF T431 induces mitotic retention of BORIS. Our data support previous work demonstrating mitotic retention of CTCF and provide new insight into how CTCF remains associated with chromatin during mitosis. Furthermore, our results indicate that phosphorylation of ZF linkers is not exclusively associated with dissociation of ZF-containing proteins from DNA during mitosis.
