Project description:Our goal is to identify high-confidence candidate genes associated with sub-threshold QT interval loci. We predicted enhancer-promoter targets using two different methods. 1) We used the correlation in activity between enhancers and transcribed genes across 59 human cell lines and tissues to identify significantly correlated enhancer-promoter pairs that represent potential regulatory interactions. 2) We used chromosome conformation capture followed by high-throughput sequencing (4C-seq) to probe physical enhancer-promoter interactions.

Project description:MULTIPLE SCN5A ENHANCERS MODULATE CARDIAC GENE EXPRESSION AND QT INTERVAL VARIATION
| PRJNA431786 | ENA
Project description:Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have suggested that sequence variation in cis-regulatory elements (CREs) modulate common disease risk and trait variation. However, identification of the majority of these causal variants and their mechanism of action have remained significant challenges. We used reporter assays for all common variants at the QT interval associated SCN5A GWAS locus with the goal of identifying causal variants for the association. A target region of ~500kb containing SCN5A was defined based on recombination hotspots (rate>10cM/Mb; estimated from HapMap) flanking the 5 independent QT interval GWAS hits. Within this region, all common variants (minor allele frequency >5%), from the 1000 Genomes European ancestry populations, in moderate linkage disequilibrium (LD; r2>0.3) with any of the 5 sentinel hits, were selected for analyses. Of a total 121 variants selected, 112 variants in 104 amplicons passed primer design (amplicon size 256-617bp; median 397bp), with both alleles of 106 variants successfully cloned along with flanking sequences into 98 amplicons upstream of a minimal promoter-driven firefly luciferase gene in pGL4.23. Cardiomyocyte cells, AC16 (human) and HL1 (mouse), were transfected with test constructs and Renilla luciferase vector (for transfection normalization) in triplicate; luciferase assays were performed 24h later. All cloning and reporter assays were performed in 96- and 24-well plates. In reporter assays across the two cell lines, compared to empty vector, 37 amplicons showed enhancer activity (z-score>99 %tile), with a concordance rate of ~70%. Of these 37 enhancer CREs, 9 overlapped open chromatin regions (DNase-seq peaks) observed in adult human heart tissue, largest among all human tissues evaluated by the RoadMap Epigenomics project. Of these 37 enhancer CREs, 12 showed allelic difference in reporter activity (P<0.05), thus identifying at least one enhancer CRE variant in high-to-moderate LD with each of the 5 sentinel hits. Using GTEx heart left ventricle (n=190) gene expression data, we showed correlation between SCN5A expression and the number of QT interval prolonging alleles across the 5 index SNPs. We are currently assessing the binding of cardiac nuclear factors at the 12 enhancer CRE variants by gel-shift assays and the effect of CRISPR-Cas9 mediated CRE deletion on SCN5A expression in AC16 and HL1 cells, an analyses helped by evaluation of AC16 and HL1 cells by RNA-seq, ATAC-seq and karyotyping. Thus, independent of the publicly available epigenomic data, which are of limited cell-type relevance, an unbiased in vitro reporter screen for CREs overlapping all common variants associated with QT interval at the SCN5A GWAS locus identified 12 common cis-regulatory variants that map to cardiac open chromatin regions and correlate with SCN5A cardiac expression.

Project description:Prolonged electrocardiographic indices reflecting myocardial impulse conduction and repolarization are risk factors for sudden cardiac death and drug-induced arrhythmia. The PR-interval, QRS-duration and QT-interval are heritable traits influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors. The genetic underpinnings of these traits are still largely unknown. In this study, we leveraged the variability in cardiac gene expression and the variation in PR-, QRS- and QT-intervals among F2 mice harboring the cardiac sodium ion-channel mutation Scn5a-1798insD/+ derived from the 129P2-Scn5a1798insD/+ and FVB/NJ-Scn5a1798insD/+ cross, to isolate novel genes and biological pathways impacting on cardiac conduction and repolarization.

Project description:Chromatin-based functional genomic analyses and genomewide association studies (GWASs) together implicate enhancers as critical elements influencing gene expression and risk for common diseases. Here, we performed systematic chromatin and transcriptome profiling in human pancreatic islets. Integrated analysis of islet data with those generated by the ENCODE project in nine cell types identified specific and significant enrichment of type 2 diabetes and related quantitative trait GWAS variants in islet enhancers. Our integrated chromatin maps reveal that most enhancers are short (median = 0.8 kb). Each cell type also contains a substantial number of more extended (?3 kb) enhancers. Interestingly, these stretch enhancers are often tissue-specific and overlap locus control regions, suggesting that they are important chromatin regulatory beacons. Indeed, we show that (i) tissue specificity of enhancers and nearby gene expression increase with enhancer length; (ii) neighborhoods containing stretch enhancers are enriched for important cell type-specific genes; and (iii) GWAS variants associated with traits relevant to a particular cell type are more enriched in stretch enhancers compared with short enhancers. Reporter constructs containing stretch enhancer sequences exhibited tissue-specific activity in cell culture experiments and in transgenic mice. These results suggest that stretch enhancers are critical chromatin elements for coordinating cell type-specific regulatory programs and that sequence variation in stretch enhancers affects risk of major common human diseases.
