Project description:Tumor suppressors are mostly defined by inactivating somatic mutations in tumors, yet little is known about their epigenetic features in normal cells. Here, through integrative analysis of 1,134 genome-wide epigenetic profiles and mutations from >8,200 tumor-normal pairs, we discovered broad H3K4me3 (wider than 4 kb) as the first epigenetic signature for tumor suppressors in normal cells. Broad H3K4me3 is associated with increased transcription elongation and enhancer activity together leading to exceptionally high gene expression, and is distinct from other broad epigenetic features, such as super enhancers. Broad H3K4me3 conserved across normal cells represents core tumor suppressors, such as P53 and PTEN, whereas cell-type-specific broad H3K4me3 may indicate cell-identity genes and cell-type-specific tumor suppressors. Furthermore, widespread shortening of broad H3K4me3 in cancers is strongly associated with repression of tumor suppressors. Together, the broad H3K4me3 epigenetic signature we reported here may provide a new direction for the discovery and characterization of novel tumor suppressors. H3K4me3 ChIP-Seq was conducted in 1) liver tumor and matched tissue, 2) lung tumor and matched tissue, 3) cell line A549 grown under normal and flavopiridol treatment conditions.

Project description:Aberrant enhancer activation is a key mechanism driving oncogene expression in many cancers. While much is known about the regulation of larger chromosome domains in eukaryotes, the details of enhancer-promoter interactions remain poorly understood. Recent work suggests co-activators like BRD4 and Mediator have little impact on enhancer-promoter interactions. In leukemias controlled by the MLL-AF4 fusion protein, we use the ultra-high resolution technique Micro-Capture-C (MCC) to show that MLL-AF4 binding promotes broad, high-density regions of enhancer-promoter interactions at a subset of key targets. These enhancers are enriched for transcription elongation factors like PAF1C and FACT and loss of these factors abolishes enhancer-promoter contact. This work not only provides a new model for how MLL-AF4 is able to drive high levels of transcription at key genes in leukemia, but also suggests a more general model linking enhancer-promoter crosstalk and transcription elongation.

Project description:Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) is associated with transcriptional start sites and proposed to regulate transcription initiation. However, redundant functions of the H3K4 SET1/COMPASS methyltransferase complexes complicate elucidation of the specific role of H3K4me3 in transcriptional regulation. Here, by using mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) as a model system, we show that acute ablation of shared subunits of the SET1/COMPASS complexes leads to complete loss of all H3K4 methylation. H3K4me3 turnover occurs more rapidly than H3K4me1 and H3K4me2 and is dependent on KDM5 demethylases. Surprisingly, acute loss of H3K4me3 does not have detectable effects on transcriptional initiation but leads to a widespread decrease in transcriptional output, an increase in RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) pausing and slower elongation. Notably, we show that H3K4me3 is required for the recruitment of the Integrator Complex Subunit 11 (INTS11), which is essential for the eviction of paused RNAPII and transcriptional elongation. Thus, our study demonstrates a distinct role for H3K4me3 in transcriptional pause-release and elongation rather than transcriptional initiation.

Project description:Clusters of enhancers called super-enhancers are associated with gene activation. Broad trimethyl histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) often defines actively transcribed tumor suppressor genes. However, how these epigenetic signatures are regulated for tumor suppression is poorly understood. Here, we show that brain-specific knockout of the H3K4 methyltransferase MLL4 (aka KMT2D) in mice spontaneously induces cerebellar tumors in brain while indirectly increasing expression of oncogenic programs, such as Ras activators and Notch pathway components. Mll4 loss caused widespread impairment of super-enhancers and broad H3K4me3. Notably, Mll4 loss reduced super-enhancer and broad H3K4me3 signals in tumor suppressor genes co-marked by both signatures, including Dnmt3a and Bcl6. MLL4 upregulates DNMT3A-mediated DNA methylation to downregulate expression of Ras activators and increases Bcl6 expression to suppress the Notch pathway. These findings suggest an unanticipated epigenetic tumor-suppressive mechanism in which MLL4 is required for establishing super-enhancers and broad H3K4me3 for anti-tumor programs in normal cells.

Project description:Signal-dependent RNA Polymerase II (Pol2) productive elongation is an integral component of gene transcription, including those of immediate early genes (IEGs) induced by neuronal activity. However, it remains unclear how productively elongating Pol2 overcome nucleosomal barriers. Using RNAi, three degraders, and several small molecule inhibitors, we show that the mammalian SWI/SNF complex of neurons (neuronal BAF, or nBAF) is required for activity-induced transcription of neuronal IEGs, including Arc. The nBAF complex facilitates promoter-proximal Pol2 pausing, signal-dependent Pol2 recruitment (loading), and importantly, mediates productive elongation in the gene body via interaction with the elongation complex and elongation-competent Pol2. Mechanistically, Pol2 elongation is mediated by activity-induced nBAF assembly (especially, ARID1A recruitment) and its ATPase activity. Together, our data demonstrate that the nBAF complex regulates several aspects of Pol2 transcription and reveal mechanisms underlying activity-induced Pol2 elongation. These findings may offer insights into human maladies etiologically associated with mutational interdiction of BAF functions.

Project description:Genomic enhancers are important regulators of gene expression, but their identification is a challenge and methods depend on indirect measures of activity. We developed a method termed STARR-seq to directly and quantitatively assess enhancer activity for millions of candidates from arbitrary sources of DNA, enabling screens across entire genomes. When applied to the Drosophila genome, STARR-seq identifies thousands of cell type-specific enhancers across a broad continuum of strengths, linking differential gene expression to differences in enhancer activity and creating a genome-wide quantitative enhancer map. This map reveals the highly complex regulation of transcription, with several independent enhancers for both developmental regulators and ubiquitously expressed genes. STARR-seq can be used to identify and quantitate enhancer activity in other eukaryotes, including human. STARR-seq was performed in S2 and OSC cells with paired-end sequencing in two replicates and respective inputs. DHS-seq was done with single-end sequencing in two replicates for S2 and OSC cells. RNA-seq was performed with a strand-specific protocol using single-end sequencing in two replicates within S2 and OSC cells. STARR-seq was also performed in HeLa cells with single-end sequencing with a respective input.
