Project description:The eukaryotic genome is tightly packed inside the nucleus, where it is organized in 3D at different scales. This structure is driven and maintained by different chromatin states and by architectural factors that bind DNA, such as the multi-zinc finger protein CTCF. Zygotic genome structure is established de novo after fertilization, but the impact of such structure on genome function during the first stages of mammalian development is still unclear. Here, we show that deletion of the Ctcf gene in mouse embryos impairs the correct establishment of chromatin structure, but initial lineage decisions take place and embryos are viable until the late blastocyst stage. Furthermore, we observe that maternal CTCF is not necessary for development. Transcriptomic analyses of mutant embryos show that the changes in metabolic and protein homeostasis programs that occur during the progression from the morula to the blastocyst depend on CTCF. Yet, these changes in gene expression do not correlate with disruption of chromatin structure, but mainly with proximal binding of CTCF to the promoter region of genes downregulated in mutants. Our results show that CTCF regulates both 3D genome organization and transcription during mouse preimplantation development, but mostly as independent processes.

Project description:CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is an architectural protein involved in the three-dimensional organization of chromatin. In this study, we systematically assayed the 3D genomic contact profiles of hundreds of CTCF binding sites in multiple tissues with high-resolution 4C-seq. We find both developmentally stable and dynamic chromatin loops. As recently reported, our data also suggest that chromatin loops preferentially form between CTCF binding sites oriented in a convergent manner. To directly test this, we used CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing to delete core CTCF binding sites in three loci, including the CTCF site in the Sox2 super-enhancer. In all instances, CTCF and cohesin recruitment were lost, and chromatin loops with distal CTCF sites were disrupted or destabilized. Re-insertion of oppositely oriented CTCF recognition sequences restored CTCF and cohesin recruitment, but did not re-establish chromatin loops. We conclude that CTCF binding polarity plays a functional role in the formation of higher order chromatin structure. 4C-seq was performed on a large number of viewpoints in E14 embryonic stem cells, neural precursor cells and primary fetal liver cells

Project description:Higher order chromatin structure establishes domains that organize the genome and coordinate gene expression. However, the molecular mechanisms controlling transcription of individual loci within a topological domain (TAD) are not fully understood. The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene provides a paradigm for investigating these mechanisms. CFTR occupies a TAD bordered by CTCF/cohesin binding sites within which are cell-type-selective cis-regulatory elements for the locus. We showed previously that intronic and extragenic enhancers, when occupied by specific transcription factors, are recruited to the CFTR promoter by a looping mechanism to drive gene expression. Here we use a combination of CRISPR/Cas9 editing of cis-regulatory elements and siRNA-mediated depletion of architectural proteins to determine the relative contribution of structural elements and enhancers to the higher order structure and expression of the CFTR locus. We found the boundaries of the CFTR TAD are conserved among diverse cell types and are dependent on CTCF and cohesin complex. Removal of an upstream CTCF-binding insulator alters the interaction profile, but has little effect on CFTR expression. Within the TAD, intronic enhancers recruit cell-type selective transcription factors and deletion of a pivotal enhancer element dramatically decreases CFTR expression, but has minor effect on its 3D structure.
