MNase-seq analysis in human breast cancer cells

ABSTRACT: Nucleosomes are the most basic units of chromatin and are regulators of genome integrity and gene expression. The fundamental mechanism how nucleosomes are dynamically regulated is one of the main questions in chromatin organization; most of the study has, however, focused on its positioning. Here we performed HiLo-MNase-seq, which involves limit and partial digestion of chromatin by micrococcal nuclease (MNase) to identify the positioning of nucleosome array along with the kinetics of MNase digestion. We identified a subset of unique nucleosomes with fast digestion kinetics at the transcription factor binding sites that have been characterized as nucleosome depleted regions (NDRs). By inhibiting RNA polymerase II, we also showed that those nucleosomes changed its sensitivity to MNase in a context-dependent manner. These findings implicated a self-reinforcing regulatory network involving nucleosomes, Pol II, and transcription factors for fine-tuning of gene expression.

Chromatin architectures at fission yeast transcriptional promoters and replication origins

Project description:We have used micrococcal nuclease (MNase) digestion followed by deep sequencing in order to obtain a higher-resolution map than previously available of nucleosome positions in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Our data confirm an unusually short average nucleosome repeat length, ~152 bp, in fission yeast and that transcriptional start sites (TSSs) are associated with nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs), ordered nucleosome arrays downstream and less regularly spaced upstream nucleosomes. In addition, we found enrichments for associated function in four of eight groups of genes clustered according to chromatin configurations near TSSs. At replication origins, our data revealed asymmetric localization of Pre-Replication Complex (pre-RC) proteins within large NDRsM-bM-^@M-^Ta feature that is conserved in fission and budding yeast and is therefore likely to be conserved in other eukaryotic organisms.

Novel nucleosomal particles containing core histones and linker DNA but no histone H1

Project description:The nucleosome plays a central role in genome regulation. Traditional methods for mapping nucleosomes depend on the resistance of the nucleosome core to micrococcal nuclease (MNase). However, the lengths of the protected DNA fragments are heterogeneous, limiting the accuracy of nucleosome position information. To resolve this problem, we removed residual linker DNA by simultaneous digestion of yeast chromatin with MNase and exonuclease III (ExoIII). Paired-end sequencing of mono-nucleosomes revealed not only core particles (145-147 bp), but also intermediate particles in which ~8 bp project from one side (154 bp) or both sides (161 bp) of the nucleosome core. We term these particles "pseudo-chromatosomes" because they are present in yeast lacking linker histone. They are also observed after MNase-ExoIII digestion of chromatin reconstituted using recombinant core histones. We propose that the pseudo-chromatosome provides a DNA framework to facilitate H1 binding. Comparison of budding yeast nucleosome sequences obtained using micrococcal nuclease (MNase-seq) and MNase + exonuclease III (ExoIII) (MNase-ExoIII-seq): wild type cells and hho1-null cells. Nucleosome sequences from native chromatin and H1-depleted chromatin from mouse liver. Nucleosome sequences from a plasmid reconstituted into nucleosomes using recombinant yeast histones or native chicken erythrocyte histones.

MNase digestion-sensitive nucleosomes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:The structural complexity of nucleosomes underlies their functional versatility. Here we report a new type of complexity – nucleosome fragility, manifested as high sensitivity to micrococcal nuclease, in contrast to the common presumption that nucleosomes are similar in resistance to MNase digestion. Using differential MNase digestion of chromatin and high-throughput sequencing, we have identified a special group of nucleosomes termed fragile nucleosomes throughout the yeast genome, nearly one thousand of which are at previously determined “nucleosome free” loci. Nucleosome fragility is broadly implicated in multiple chromatin processes, including transcription, translocation and replication, in correspondence to specific physiological states of cells. In the environmental-stress-response genes, the presence of fragile nucleosomes prior to the occurrence of environmental changes suggests that nucleosome fragility poises genes for swift up-regulation in response to the environmental changes. We propose that nucleosome fragility underscores distinct functional statuses of the chromatin and provides a new dimension for portraying the landscape of genome organization. Comparing nucleosome occupancy under different MNase digestion levels and growth conditions.

The ISW1 and CHD1 ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers compete to set nucleosome spacing in vivo

Project description:We addressed the roles of three nucleosome spacing enzymes (ISW1, ISW2 and CHD1) in specifying chromatin organization in S. cerevisiae. Comparison of budding yeast nucleosome positions obtained using micrococcal nuclease digestion followed by paired-end sequencing (MNase-seq). We sequenced nucleosomes from isogenic strains with the isw1Î, isw2Î or chd1Î mutations in all combinations. We measured gene activity by ChIP-seq for the Rpb3 subunit of RNA polymerase II for some of these mutants.

MNase titration reveals differences between nucleosome occupancy and chromatin accessibility

Project description:Chromatin accessibility plays a fundamental role in gene regulation. One mechanism to regulate accessibility is nucleosome placement, which is often measured by quantifying protection of DNA from enzymatic digestion. We introduce a metric that uses micrococcal nuclease (MNase) digestion in a novel manner to measure chromatin accessibility by combining information from several digests of increasing depths. This metric, MACC, quantifies the inherent heterogeneity of nucleosome accessibility in which some nucleosomes are seen preferentially at high MNase and some at low MNase. MACC interrogates each genomic locus, measuring both location of nucleosomes and accessibility to MNase in the same assay. MACC can be performed either with or without a histone immunoprecipitation step, and thereby compares behavior of nucleosomes to that of non-histone proteins. We find that enhancers, promoters and other regulatory regions have changes in accessibility that do not correlate with changes in nucleosome occupancy. Moreover, we show that high nucleosome occupancy does not necessarily preclude high accessibility, revealing novel principles of chromatin regulation.

Meiotic recombination initiation hotspots in Arabidopsis genes and transposons (MNase-seq)

Project description:To analyse nucleosome positioning and occupancy we performed micrococcal nuclease digestion of Arabidopsis wild type (Col-0) chromatin and gel purified the resulting ~150 bp mononucleosomal DNA band. This DNA was used to generate a library and paired-end sequencing performed (MNase-seq). To further examine influence of SWR1 chromatin remodelling complex and DNA methylation on nucleosome occupancy, we repeated MNase-seq in Aarabidopsis arp6 and met1 mutant.

MPE-seq, a New Method for the Genome-wide Analysis of Chromatin Structure

Project description:In this study we developed MPE-seq, a method for the genome-wide characterization of chromatin that involves the digestion of nuclei with methidiumpropyl-EDTA-Fe(II) [MPE-Fe(II)] followed by massively parallel sequencing. Like micrococcal nuclease (MNase), MPE-Fe(II) preferentially cleaves the linker DNA between nucleosomes. We also performed MNase-seq as a comparison. We further performed ChIP-seq using chromatin samples obtained by MPE-Fe(II) or MNase digestion of nuclei. Nuclei from J1 mouse embryonic stem cells were treated with MPE-Fe(II) or MNase. The isolated DNA was sequenced by Illumina HiSeq sequencers. Some of the digested chromatin was studied by performing ChIP-seq using antibodies against histone H2B or H3.
