Allele-specific regulation of gene expression through enhancer function and transcriptional elongation control at imprinted loci

ABSTRACT: Genomic imprinting is a critical developmental process characteristic of parent-of-origin- specific gene expression. Here, we have identified the AFF family protein, Aff3, as a factor that functionally interacts with imprinted loci. Indeed, our genome-wide studies demonstrate that Aff3 specifically binds both imprinting control regions (ICRs) and enhancers within imprinted loci in an allele-specific manner. We have identified the molecular regulators involved in the recruitment of Aff3 to ICRs to impede transcription through the ICR, and provide a mechanism requiring Aff3 within the Super Elongation Complex-like 3 (SEC-L3) in the expression of an imprinted polycistronic transcript spanning the Dlk1-Dio3 locus. Our study also shows that DNA methylation at the ICR reinforces silencing of its related enhancers by controlling the binding and activity of Aff3 in an allele-specific manner. This study provides molecular details about the regulation of dosage-critical imprinted gene expression through Aff3’s function in transcriptional elongation control.

Biallelic non-productive enhancer-promoter interaction precedes imprinted expression of KcnK9 during mouse neural commitment [RNA-seq]

Project description:How constitutive allelic methylation at imprinting control regions (ICRs) interacts with other levels of regulation to drive timely parental allele-specific expression along large imprinted domains remains partially understood at most imprinted loci. To gain insight into the regulation of the Peg13-KcnK9 domain, an imprinted domain with important brain functions, during neural commitment, we performed a detailed integrative analysis of the epigenetic, transcriptomic and cis-spatial organisation in an allele-specific manner in a mouse stem cell-based model of corticogenesis that recapitulates the control of imprinted gene expression in the embryonic brain. We have evidence that despite an allelic higher order chromatin structure associated with the paternally CTCF-bound Peg13 ICR, enhancer-Kcnk9 promoter contacts can occur on both alleles, although they are only productive on the maternal allele. This observation challenges the canonical model in which CTCF binding isolates the enhancer and its target gene on either side, and suggests a more nuanced role for allelic CTCF binding at the ICR of this locus.

A permissive chromatin state regulated by ZFP281-AFF3 in controlling the imprinted Meg3 polycistron

Project description:Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic regulation which leads to gene expression in a parent-of-origin specific manner. Previously we have demonstrated that AFF3, the central component of Super Elongation Complex-like 3 (SEC-L3), can specifically bind both the intergenic differentially methylated region (IG-DMR) and the enhancer within the imprinted Dlk1-Dio3 locus to regulate the expression of the Meg3 polycistron. However, the mechanism underlying how AFF3 can interact with distinct chromatin regulatory elements remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that AFF3 is associated with the Krüppel-like zinc finger protein ZFP281. ZFP281 is required for the recruitment of AFF3 to the enhancer and regulates the allele-specific expression of the Meg3 polycistron in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells at the transcriptional elongation level. Our genome-wide analyses further identify ZFP281 as a critical factor generally associating with AFF3 at enhancers and functioning together with AFF3 in regulating the expression of a subset of gene. Our study suggests that different zinc finger proteins can function as molecular switchers to regulate the context-dependent function of AFF3 and set a balanced chromatin state for maintaining the allele specific expression pattern of the imprinted Dlk1-Dio3 locus.

Role of N-α-acetyltransferase 10 Protein in DNA Methylation and Genomic Imprinting

Project description:Genomic imprinting is an allelic gene expression phenomenon primarily controlled by allele-specific DNA methylation at the imprinting control region (ICR), of which the underlying mechanism remains largely unclear. Mammalian N-α-acetyltransferase 10 protein (Naa10p) catalyzes N-α-acetylation of nascent proteins. Mutation of human Naa10p is linked to severe developmental delays. Here we report that Naa10-null mice display partial embryonic lethality, growth retardation, brain disorder and maternaleffect lethality, phenotypes commonly observed in defective genomic imprinting. Genome-wide analyses further revealed global DNA hypomethylation and enriched dysregulation of imprinted genes in Naa10p-knockout embryos and ES cells. Mechanistically, Naa10p facilitates the binding of DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) to DNA substrates and recruits Dnmt1 to ICRs of the imprinted allele during S phase. Moreover, the clinical lethal Ogden syndrome-associated mutation of Naa10p disrupts its binding to H19-ICR and Dnmt1 recruitment. Our study thus links Naa10p mutationassociated human disease to defective DNA methylation and genomic imprinting.

ZFP57 maintains the parent-of-origin-specific expression of the imprinted genes and differentially affects non-imprinted targets in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:ZFP57 is necessary for maintaining repressive epigenetic modifications at Imprinting control regions (ICRs). In mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), ZFP57 binds ICRs (ICRBS) and many other loci (non-ICRBS). To address the role of ZFP57 on all its target sites, we performed high-throughput and multi-locus analyses of inbred and hybrid mouse ESC lines carrying different gene knockouts. By using an allele-specific RNA-seq approach, we demonstrate that ZFP57 loss results in derepression of the imprinted allele of multiple genes in the imprinted clusters. We also find marked epigenetic differences between ICRBS and non-ICRBS suggesting that different cis-acting regulatory functions are repressed by ZFP57 at these two classes of target loci. Overall, these data demonstrate that ZFP57 is pivotal to maintain the allele-specific epigenetic modifications of ICRs that in turn are necessary for maintaining the imprinted expression over long distances. At non-ICRBS, ZFP57 inactivation results in acquisition of epigenetic features that are characteristic of poised enhancers, suggesting that another function of ZFP57 in early embryogenesis is to repress cis-acting regulatory elements whose activity is not yet required.
