Project description:Super-enhancers (SEs) are cis-regulatory elements enriching lineage specific key transcription factors (TFs) to form hotspots. A paucity of identification and functional dissection promoted us to investigate SEs during myoblast differentiation. ChIP-seq analysis of histone marks leads to the uncovering of SEs which remodel progressively during the course of differentiation. Further analyses of TF ChIP-seq enable the definition of SE hotspots co-bound by the master TF, MyoD and other TFs, among which we perform in-depth dissection for MyoD/FoxO3 interaction in driving the hotspots formation and SE activation.

Project description:Temporal regulation of super enhancer (SE) driven lineage specific transcription factors (TFs), underlies normal developmental programs. Neuroblastoma (NB) arises from an inability of sympathoadrenal progenitors to exit a self-renewal program and terminally differentiate. To identify critical SEs driving TF regulators of NB, we utilized NB cells in which retinoid (RA) induces growth arrest and differentiation. H3K27ac ChIP-seq paired with RNA-seq over a time course of RA treatment revealed that SEs moving in a coordinated manner with four distinct temporal patterns (clusters). SEs that decreased with RA linked to 24 TFs involved in stem cell differentiation (MYCN, GATA3, SOX11). Three other TF SE clusters had sequential waves of activation at 2, 4 and 8 days of RA treatment and involved TFs regulating neural development (GATA2 and SOX4). Our study has identified candidate oncogenic lineage drivers of NB self-renewal and TFs critical for implementing a differentiation program.

Project description:Activation of identity determining transcription factors (TFs), or core regulatory TFs, is governed by cell-type specific enhancers, an important subset of these being super enhancers (SEs). This mechanism is distinct from constitutive expression of housekeeping genes. The characterization of drug-like small molecules to selectively inhibit core regulatory circuitry is of high interest for treatment of cancers, which are addicted to core regulatory TF function at SEs. Surprisingly, we find histone deacetylases (HDAC) to be an indispensable component of SE-driven transcription. While histone acetylation is a marker for active genes, over accumulation of acetylation selectively halts core regulatory transcription. We show this conundrum may in part be explained by a SE-specific need for resetting histones to maintain SE boundaries, to facilitate enhancer-promoter looping and high levels of transcription.

Project description:To identify transcription factor (TF) genes exhibiting preferential expression during SE, expression profiles of 1,880 TFs were compared in two genotypes with largely different capacities for SE induction in IZE culture on auxin medium, namely the highly embryonic Col-0 accession and the tanmei mutant unable to form somatic embryos. Our study revealed 729 TFs whose expression changes during the 10-day incubation period of SE; 141 TFs displayed distinct differences in expression patterns in embryogenic versus non-embryogenic cultures. This study provides comprehensive data focused on the expression of TF genes during SE and provides guidelines for further research on functional genomics of SE. The experiment was designed to monitor the expression of 1,880 TF genes at three distinctive stages of IZE-derived embryogenic culture, which refer to: (i) freshly isolated explants competent to undergo embryogenic transition (0 d), (ii) explant tissue subjected to SE induction (5 d), and (iii) the advanced phase of embryogenesis related to somatic embryo formation (10 d).

Project description:HAND2, MEIS2 and TCF4 are master transcription factors (TFs) in neuroblastoma and create an interconnected core regulatory circuitry (CRC) by directly occupying each other's and their own super-enhancers (SEs), which leads to high levels of each TF expression inside the CRC. Additionally, CRC TFs cooperatively co-occupy the same SE components, which promotes the expression of genes involved in cell identity and cell-type-specific activities. Super-enhancer-mediated CRC enriched at key oncogenes in neuroblastoma. In the present study, CUT&Tag (Cleavage Under Targets and Tagmentation) analysis was performed to explore the target of HAND2, MEIS2 and TCF4 in NB cells.

Project description:Super-enhancers (SEs) are key transcriptional drivers of cellular, developmental and disease states in mammals, yet the conservational and regulatory features of these enhancer elements in non-mammalian vertebrates are unknown. To define SEs in zebrafish and enable sequence and functional comparisons to mouse and human SEs, we used genome-wide histone H3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) occupancy as a primary SE delineator. Our study determined the set of SEs in pluripotent state cells and adult zebrafish tissues and revealed both similarities and differences between zebrafish and mammalian SEs. Although the total number of SEs was proportional to the genome size, the genomic distribution of zebrafish SEs differed from that of the mammalian SEs. Despite the evolutionary distance separating zebrafish and mammals and the low overall SE sequence conservation, ~42% of zebrafish SEs from all cells and tissues analyzed were associated with orthologs that also were associated with SEs in mouse and human. Compared to their non-associated counterparts, higher sequence conservation was revealed for those SEs that have maintained orthologous vertebrate gene associations. Functional dissection of two of these SEs identified conserved sequence elements and tissue-specific expression patterns, while chromatin accessibility analyses predicted transcription factors governing the function of pluripotent state zebrafish SEs. Our zebrafish enhancer characterizations and comparative studies show the extent of SE usage and their conservation across vertebrates, permitting future gene regulatory studies in several tissues.

Project description:Meiotic recombination is initiated by developmentally programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). In S. cerevisiae, the vast majority of DSBs occur in the nucleosome-depleted regions at gene promoters, where transcription factors (TFs) bind. It has been proposed that TF binding can stimulate DSB formation nearby by modulating local chromatin structure. However, a prior study in TF bas1 mutant suggested that the role of TF binding in determining break formation is complex. Here, we examined fine-scale DSB distributions in TF mutant (bas1Δ and ino4Δ) strains. In bas1Δ mutants, 239 out of the 2468 hotspots showed reduced DSB activity, whereas 87 hotspots showed increased DSB activity. Similarly, in ino4Δ mutant, 415 out of the 2468 hotspots showed reduced DSB activity, whereas 322 hotspots showed increased DSB activity. We also mapped Bas1 and Ino4 binding sites in meiosis and found that only a small portion of the affected hotspots contained TF binding sites. This indicates that TF can influence DSB distribution both directly and indirectly. Surprisingly, these DSB changes in TF mutants did not correlate with change in chromatin structure and histone H3K4me3 modification, suggesting that the role of TF on DSB distribution cannot be simply explained by affecting local chromatin status. Nine samples total: two wild type, four bas1 mutant and three ino4 mutant (each an independent culture)
