Genome-wide characterization of mammalian promoters with distal enhancer functions

ABSTRACT: Gene expression in mammals is precisely regulated by combination of promoters and gene-distal regulatory regions, known as enhancers. Several studies have suggested that some promoters might play enhancer functions. However, the extent of this type of promoters and whether they actually function to regulate the expression of distal genes have remained elusive. Here, by exploiting a high-throughput enhancer reporter assay, we unravel a set of mammalian promoters displaying enhancer activity. These promoters have distinct genomic and epigenomic features and frequently interact with other gene-promoters. Extensive CRISPR/Cas9 genomic manipulation demonstrated their involvement in cis-regulation of distal gene expression in their natural loci. Our results have important implications for the understanding of complex gene regulation in normal development and disease.

Multi-omic analysis of gametogenesis reveals a novel signature at the promoters and distal enhancers of active genes

Project description:Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is tightly controlled by the dynamic modification of histones by chemical groups, the diversity of which has largely expanded over the past decade with the discovery of lysine acylations, catalyzed from acyl-coenzymes A. Here, we investigated the dynamics of lysine acetylation and crotonylation on histones H3 and H4 during mouse spermatogenesis. Lysine crotonylation appeared to be of significant abundance compared to acetylation, particularly on Lys27 of histone H3 (H3K27cr) that accumulates in sperm in a cleaved form of H3. We identified the genomic localization of H3K27cr and studied its effects on transcription compared to the classical active mark H3K27ac at promoters and distal enhancers. The presence of both marks was strongly associated with highest gene expression. Assessment of their co-localization with transcription regulators (SLY, SOX30) and chromatin-binding proteins (BRD4, BORIS and CTCF) indicated systematic highest binding when both active marks were present and different selective binding when present alone at chromatin. H3K27cr and H3K27ac finally mark the building of some sperm super-enhancers. This integrated analysis of omics data provides an unprecedented level of understanding of gene expression regulation by H3K27cr in comparison to H3K27ac, and reveals both synergistic and specific actions of each histone modification.

Exploring Six2 distal enhancer interactome in developing mouse kidney

Project description:The Six2 distal enhancer regulates expression of the 60 kb-downstream gene Six2, but does not regulate the Six3 gene which is 70 kb further downstream. CTCF ChIP-Seq and Hi-C data points to a chromatin domain boundary between Six2 and Six3 which may intervene interaction between Six2-DE and Six3. The irradiation-induced Brachyrrhine (Br) mutant allele was found to carry a 320 kb genomic inversion that includes Six2 and Six3, but not Six2DE. This repositioned Six2 under Six3 enhancer control and Six3 under Six2 distal enhancer control. Consistent with this, Six3 is ectopically expressed in Br/+ kidneys and Six2 expression is reduced. To test whether there is a change of interaction between Six2 distal enhancer and Six2 or Six3 promoters, we performed 4C-Seq in E16.5 wildtyp or Br/+ mice nephron-genic zone cells.

MYC enhancer invasion promotes prognostic cancer type-specific gene programs through an epigenetic switch

Project description:The transcription factor MYC is overexpressed in most cancers, where it drives multiple hallmarks of cancer progression. MYC is known to promote oncogenic transcription by binding to active promoters. In addition, MYC has also been shown to invade distal enhancers when expressed at oncogenic levels, but this enhancer binding has been proposed to have low gene-regulatory potential. Here, we demonstrate that MYC enhancer binding directly promotes cancer type-specific gene programs predictive of poor patient prognosis. MYC induces transcription of enhancer RNA through recruitment of RNAPII, rather than regulating RNAPII pause-release as is the case at promoters. This is mediated by MYC-induced H3K9 demethylation by KDM3A and acetylation by GCN5, leading to enhancer-specific BRD4 recruitment through its bromodomains, which facilitates RNAPII recruitment. Thus, we propose that MYC drives prognostic cancer type-specific gene programs by promoting RNAPII recruitment to enhancers through induction of an epigenetic switch.

Dynamic BRG1 Recruitment During T Helper Differentiation And Activation Reveals Distal Regulatory Elements

Project description:We found binding of the remodeling protein BRG1 was programmed by lineage and activation signals. BRG1 binding was positively correlated with gene activity at protein-coding and miRNA genes. BRG1 binding was found at promoters and distal regions, including known and novel distal regulatory elements. Distal BRG1 binding correlated with expression, and novel distal sites possessed enhancer activity, suggesting a general role for BRG1 in long-distance gene regulation. Together, these findings suggest BRG1 interprets differentiation and activation signals and plays a causal role in gene regulation, chromatin structure, and cell fate. Our findings indicate BRG1 binding is a useful marker for identifying cis-regulatory regions in protein-coding and miRNA genes. Compare BRG1 binding in T helper subsets genome wide; Naïve, resting Th1, resting Th2, Stimulated Th1, Stimulated Th2, Stimulated Th17, compared to input DNA as negative control

A distal enhancer maintaining Hoxa1 expression orchestrates retinoic acid-induced early ESCs differentiation

Project description:Retinoic acid (RA) induces rapid differentiation of ESCs, partly by activating expression of the transcription factor Hoxa1, which regulates downstream target genes that promote ESCs differentiation. However, mechanisms of RA-induced Hoxa1 expression and ESCs early differentiation remain largely unknown. Here, we identify a distal enhancer interacting with the Hoxa1 locus through a long-range chromatin loop. Enhancer deletion significantly inhibited expression of RA-induced Hoxa1 and endoderm master control genes such as Gata4 and Gata6. Transcriptome analysis revealed that RA-induced early ESCs differentiation was blocked in Hoxa1 enhancer knockout cells, suggesting a requirement for the enhancer. Restoration of Hoxa1 expression partly rescued expression levels of ~40% of genes whose expression changed following enhancer deletion, and ~18% of promoters of those rescued genes were directly bound by Hoxa1. Our data show that a distal enhancer maintains Hoxa1 expression through long-range chromatin loop and that Hoxa1 directly regulates downstream target gene expression and then orchestrates RA-induced early differentiation of ESCs.

High-throughput functional comparison of promoter and enhancer activities

Project description:Promoters initiate RNA synthesis, and enhancers stimulate promoter activity. Whether promoter and enhancer activities are encoded distinctly in DNA sequences is unknown. We measured the enhancer and promoter activities of thousands of DNA fragments transduced into mouse neurons. We focused on genomic loci bound by the neuronal activity-regulated co-activator CREBBP, and we measured enhancer and promoter activities both before and after neuronal activation. We find that the same sequences typically encode both enhancer and promoter activities. However, gene promoters generate more promoter activity than distal enhancers, despite generating similar enhancer activity. Surprisingly, the greater promoter activity of gene promoters is not due to conventional core promoter elements or splicing signals. Instead, we find that particular transcription factor binding motifs are intrinsically biased toward the generation of promoter activity, while others are not. While the specific biases we observe may be dependent on experimental or cellular context, our results suggest that gene promoters are distinguished from distal enhancers by specific complements of transcriptional activators.

Activation domains and Coactivator direct genomic localization of fused DNA binding domains, defining the subset of activated promoters [RNA-seq]

Project description:Activation domains (ADs) within transcription factors (TFs) induce gene expression by recruiting coactivators to specific regulatory regions. Within the prevailing model, TF-coactivator recruitment is independent of DNA binding, which is consistent with direct AD-coactivator interactions seen outside cells. However, this independence was not yet tested within the genomic context. Here, we targeted two Med15-interacting ADs to hundreds of budding yeast promoters through fusions with multiple DNA binding domains (DBDs), gradually controlling their abundances using libraries of synthetic promoters. Genomic profiling revealed that AD identity influences DNA binding locations and that transcription induction and Med15 recruitment are restricted to a subset of DBD-bound promoters displaying flexible expression, multiple-TFs binding, and fuzzy nucleosome architecture. Further, when fused to a DBD, Med15 redirected binding towards promoters of fuzzy nucleosomes, overcoming DBD-based preferences. Our results demonstrate that ADs and their recruited coactivators posses an inherent preference for genomic localization and, therefore, define the subset of induced promoters.
