Evolutionary Principles Predict 3D Chromatin Organization

ABSTRACT: TADs, CTCF loop domains, and A/B compartments have been identified as important structural and functional components of 3D chromatin organization, yet the relationship between these features is not well understood. Using high-resolution Hi-C and HiChIP we show that Drosophila chromatin is organized into domains we term compartmental domains that correspond precisely with A/B compartments at high resolution. We find that transcriptional state is a major predictor of Hi-C contact maps in several eukaryotes tested, including C. elegans and A. thaliana. Architectural proteins insulate compartmental domains by reducing interaction frequencies between neighboring regions in Drosophila, but CTCF loops do not play a distinct role in this organism. In mammals, compartmental domains exist alongside CTCF loop domains to form topological domains. The results suggest that compartmental domains are responsible for domain structure in all eukaryotes, with CTCF playing an important role in domain formation in mammals.

A three-dimensional map of the human genome at kilobase resolution reveals prinicples of chromatin looping

Project description:We use in situ Hi-C to probe the three-dimensional architecture of genomes, constructing haploid and diploid maps of nine cell types. The densest, in human lymphoblastoid cells, contains 4.9 billion contacts, achieving 1-kilobase resolution. We find that genomes are partitioned into local domains, which are associated with distinct patterns of histone marks and segregate into six subcompartments. We identify ~10,000 loops. These loops frequently link promoters and enhancers, correlate with gene activation, and show conservation across cell types and species. Loop anchors typically occur at domain boundaries and bind CTCF. CTCF sites at loop anchors occur predominantly (>90%) in a convergent orientation, with the asymmetric motifs ‘facing’ one another. The inactive X-chromosome splits into two massive domains and contains large loops anchored at CTCF-binding repeats. in situ Hi-C and dilution Hi-C were used to probe the three-dimensional structure of the genome in eight diverse human cell types and one mouse cell type

Essential role of Cp190 in physical and regulatory boundary formation in Drosophila

Project description:Animal genomes fold into contact domains defined by enhanced internal contact frequencies with debated functions in establishing independent gene regulatory domains. A large fraction of contact domains in mammals are formed by stalling of chromosomal loop-extruding cohesin by CTCF at domain boundaries. 90% of domain boundaries in Drosophila form CTCF-independently, and other proteins were proposed to form chromosomal loops with dual functions of segregating promoters from inappropriate regulatory elements and connecting distal regulatory elements to their correct targets. Here, we genetically ablate the ubiquitous boundary-associated factor Cp190 and assess impacts on genome folding and transcriptional regulation in embryos. Our results reveal that Cp190 is a major factor required for contact domain boundary formation and gene insulation in Drosophila.

Chromatin extrusion explains key features of loop and domain formation in wild-type and engineered genomes

Project description:We recently used in situ Hi-C to create kilobase-resolution 3D maps of mammalian genomes. Here, we combine these with new Hi-C, microscopy, and genome-editing experiments to study the physical structure of chromatin fibers, domains, and loops. We find that the observed contact domains are inconsistent with the equilibrium state for an ordinary condensed polymer. Combining Hi-C data and novel mathematical theorems, we show that contact domains are also not consistent with a fractal globule. Instead, we use physical simulations to study two models of genome folding. In one, intermonomer attraction during polymer condensation leads to formation of an anisotropic "tension globule." In the other, CTCF and cohesin act together to extrude loops during interphase. Both models are consistent with the observed contact domains and with the observation that contact domains tend to form inside loops. However, the extrusion model explains a far wider array of observations, such as why loops tend not to overlap and why the CTCF-binding motifs at pairs of loop anchors lie in the convergent orientation. Finally, we perform 13 genome-editing experiments examining the effect of altering CTCF-binding sites on chromatin folding. The convergent rule correctly predicts the affected loop in every case. Moreover, the extrusion model accurately predicts in silico the 3D maps resulting from each experiment using only the location of CTCF-binding sites in the WT. Thus, we show that it is possible to disrupt, restore, and move loops and domains using targeted mutations as small as a single base pair. in situ Hi-C and HYbrid Capture Hi-C (Hi-C2) were used to probe the three-dimensional structure of the genome in two different human cell types before and after genome editing.

Condensin II Counters Cohesin and RNA Polymerase II in 3D Chromatin Organization

Project description:CTCF is present at the anchors of thousands of loops likely formed via cohesin-mediated loop extrusion in mammalian cells. Interaction domains present in D. melanogaster chromosomes form via the segregation of active and inactive chromatin in the absence of CTCF looping, but the role of transcription versus other architectural proteins in chromatin organization is unclear. Here we find that positioning of RNAPII via transcription elongation is essential in the formation of gene loops, which in turn interact to form compartmental domains. Inhibition of transcription elongation or depletion of cohesin decreases gene looping and formation of active compartmental domains. In contrast, depletion of condensin II, which also localizes to active chromatin, results in increased gene looping, formation of compartmental domains, and stronger intra-chromosomal compartmental interactions. Condensin II has a similar role in maintaining inter-chromosomal interactions responsible for pairing between homologous chromosomes, whereas inhibition of transcription elongation or cohesin depletion has little effect on homolog pairing. The results suggest distinct roles for cohesin and condensin II in the establishment of 3D nuclear organization in Drosophila.

The length and strength of compartmental interactions are modulated by condensin II activity [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Condensin II plays a crucial role in shaping chromosome structure throughout the cell cycle, but its specific functions during interphase have remained unclear. In this study, we utilized Oligopaints and Hi-C techniques to investigate how changes in condensin II levels affect chromosome organization across various length scales. Our findings reveal that condensin II has a significant impact on long-range interactions within chromosomes, which are essential for the organization of intrachromosomal compartments. Importantly, these effects occur independently of the chromatin state. Furthermore, overexpression of condensin II during interphase leads to the formation of "peri-centric super stripes" observed through Hi-C analysis, indicating a disruption of the boundary between heterochromatin and euchromatin on Drosophila chromosomes. Collectively, our results challenge the existing belief that compartments form without the involvement of a loop extruder and suggest that condensin II activity is a prerequisite for driving proximity between distal compartmental domains within chromosomes.

High resolution Hi-C analysis in S. pombe reveals fundamental elements of genome architecture [Expression Array]

Project description:Eukaryotic genomes are folded into three-dimensional structures that govern diverse hromosomal procsses. Studeis in Drosophila and mammals have revealed large self-associating tomological domains whose borders are enriched in cohesin/CTCF factors that are required for long-range intrations. However, mechanisms governing higher-order folding of chromatin fivbers and the exact function of cohesin in this process remain poor understood. Here we perform Hi-C to explore the organization of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe genome at high-resolution, which despite its small size comprises fundamental features found in higher eukaryotes. Our analyses reveal that in addition to determinants of Rabl-like chromosome architecture, smaller locally interacting regions of chromatin, referred to as globules, are a distinctive features of S. pombe chromosome organization. This feature of chromatin architecture requires a function of cohesin distinct from its role in sister chromatid cohesion. Cohesin is enriched at globule boundaries and its loss causes disruption of local globule structure and global chromosome territories. Heterochromatin, which selectively loads cohesin at specific loci including pericentromric and subtelomeric domains, is dispensable for globule formation but uniquely impacts genome organization through chromatin compaction by enforcing Rabl configuration. Agilent 60mer oligonucleotide custom array containing probes spanning large portion of chromosome 2 at 50bp resolution was used to profile expression levels in mutant cells and to compare them to levels in wild type cells.

Regulation of mammalian 3D genome organization and histone H3K9 dimethylation by H3K9 methyltransferases

Project description:Histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) is a highly conserved silencing epigenetic mark. Chromatin marked with H3K9me2 forms large domains in mammalian cells and overlaps well with lamina-associated domains and the B compartment defined by Hi-C. However, the role of H3K9me2 in 3-dimensional (3D) genome organization remains unclear. We investigated genome-wide H3K9me2 distribution, transcriptome, and 3D genome organization in mouse embryonic stem cells following the inhibition or depletion of five H3K9 methyltransferases (MTases): G9a, GLP, SETDB1, SUV39H1, and SUV39H2. H3K9me2 was regulated by all five MTases; however, H3K9me2 and transcription in the A and B compartments were regulated by different MTases. H3K9me2 in A compartments was primarily regulated by G9a/GLP and SETDB1, while H3K9me2 in the B compartments was regulated by all five MTases. Furthermore, decreased H3K9me2 correlated with changes to the more active compartmental state that accompanied transcriptional activation.
