Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells, whose identity and function are defined by the transcription factor Foxp3, are indispensable for immune homeostasis. It is unclear whether Foxp3 exerts its Treg lineage specification function through active modification of the chromatin landscape and establishment of new enhancers or by exploiting a pre-existing enhancer landscape. Analysis of the chromatin accessibility of Foxp3-bound enhancers in Treg and Foxp3-negative T cells showed that Foxp3 was bound overwhelmingly to pre-accessible enhancers occupied by its cofactors in precursor cells or a structurally related predecessor. Furthermore, the bulk of Foxp3-bound Treg cell enhancers lacking in Foxp3- CD4+ cells became accessible upon T cell receptor activation prior to Foxp3 expression with only a small subset associated with several functionally important genes being exclusively Treg cell-specific. Thus, in a late cellular differentiation process Foxp3 defines Treg cell functionality in an “opportunistic” manner by largely exploiting the preformed enhancer network instead of establishing a new enhancer landscape. Four transcription factors (Foxp3, Ets1, Elf1, and Cbfb) were immunoprecipated while crosslinked to chromatin. These experiments were then combined with DNase-seq data (being uploaded separately as part of ENCODE project) to find that Foxp3 binds exclusively to open chromatin. Data was also leveraged from GSE40657 and GSE33653.

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells play crucial roles in suppressing deleterious immune response. Here, we investigate how mechanistically Treg cells are induced and stabilized via transcriptional regulation of Treg lineage–specifying factor Foxp3. Acetylation of histone tails in the Foxp3 locus is induced during Treg cell development and required in cis for the initiation of Foxp3 transcription. Upon induction, histone acetylation signal largely acts in trans to sustain Foxp3 transcription via multiple factors. Subsequently, Tet-mediated DNA demethylation of Foxp3 cis-regulatory elements particularly enhancer CNS2 increases chromatin accessibility and protein binding, drastically stabilizing Foxp3 transcription, although histone acetylation still regulates global gene expression. These processes transform stochastic Treg cell induction into a stable cell fate, with the former sensitive and latter resistant to genetic and environmental perturbations. Thus, our study reveals distinct roles of histone acetylation in Foxp3 induction and maintenance, reflecting sequential mechanical switches governing Treg cell lineage specification.
