Project description:Trimethylated histone H3-lysine 4 is primarily distributed in the form of sharp peaks, extending in neuronal chromatin on average only across 500-1500 base pairs mostly in close proximity to annotated transcription start sites. To explore whether H3K4me3 peaks could also extend across much broader domains, we undertook a detailed analysis of broadest domain cell-type specific H3K4me3 peaks in ChIP-seq datasets from sorted neuronal and non-neuronal nuclei in human, non-human primate and mouse prefrontal cortex (PFC), and blood for comparison. We collected separately cortical gray (GM) and subcortical white matter (WM) from 6 adult human subjects without neurological disease and extracted total RNA processed by the RNA-Seq approach.

In this GEO submission, we list six newly generated ChIP-seq data sets. FACS sorted Neuronal (NeuN+) nuclei and non-neuronal (NeuN-) nuclei collected from prefrontal cortex (PFC) and processed by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-Seq). In addition we collected nucleated blood cells from 3 control subjects. These are additional subjects unrelated to brain cohort.

Project description:Broad domains of H3K4 methylation have been associated with tissue specific, cell identity and tumor suppressor genes. Here, we identified broad H3K4me3 domains (BH4D)-associated genes in human thymic T cell populations and a collection of T-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T-ALL) primary samples and cell lines. We found that BH4D are highly dynamic throughout T cell differentiation, flag key leukemia associated oncogenes and distinguish between normal and neoplastic cells. Leukemic cells loss broad domains at T cell identity genes and gain broad domains at cancer-related genes. Moreover, the expression of genes, both coding and non-coding, associated with BH4D is frequently deregulated in T-ALL. Using an ex-vivo model we demonstrated that the ectopic expression of TLX3 oncogenic factor preferentially impact on the expression of BH4D-associated genes in T cell leukemia. Finally, an H3K4me3 demethylase inhibitor differentially targets T-ALL cell lines depending on the extend of the broad domains. Our results show that regulation of BH4D-associated genes is critical for leukemogenesis and suggest that association with BH4D might be used as epigenetic prioritization of cancer-relevant genes, including long non-coding RNAs

Project description:Regulators of the histone H3-trimethyl lysine-4 (H3K4me3) mark are significantly associated with the genetic risk architecture of common neurodevelopmental disease, including schizophrenia and autism. Typical H3K4me3 is primarily localized in the form of sharp peaks, extending in neuronal chromatin on average only across 500-1500 base pairs mostly in close proximity to annotated transcription start sites. Here, through integrative computational analysis of epigenomic and transcriptomic data based on next-generation sequencing, we investigated H3K4me3 landscapes of sorted neuronal and non-neuronal nuclei in human postmortem, non-human primate and mouse prefrontal cortex (PFC), and blood. To explore whether H3K4me3 peak signals could also extend across much broader domains, we examined broadest domain cell-type-specific H3K4me3 peaks in an unbiased manner with an innovative approach on 41+12 ChIP-seq and RNA-seq data sets. In PFC neurons, broadest H3K4me3 distribution ranged from 3.9 to 12 kb, with extremely broad peaks (~10 kb or broader) related to synaptic function and GABAergic signaling (DLX1, ELFN1, GAD1, IGSF9B and LINC00966). Broadest neuronal peaks showed distinct motif signatures and were centrally positioned in prefrontal gene-regulatory Bayesian networks and sensitive to defective neurodevelopment. Approximately 120 of the broadest H3K4me3 peaks in human PFC neurons, including many genes related to glutamatergic and dopaminergic signaling, were fully conserved in chimpanzee, macaque and mouse cortical neurons. Exploration of spread and breadth of lysine methylation markings could provide novel insights into epigenetic mechanism involved in neuropsychiatric disease and neuronal genome evolution.

Project description:Male germ cells express a complex transcriptome under tight temporal regulation during their development. However, our knowledge of the epigenetic regulation of crucial stages in this process, such as meiotic onset, remains limited. Here, by dissecting a comprehensive map of the dynamic epigenomic landscape in developing mouse male germ cells, we uncover mutually exclusive shifts in the repressive histone marks H3K9me2, H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 during the mitosis-to-meiosis transition and completion of meiotic recombination. These dynamic shifts coincide with temporal changes in global transcriptional output, retrotransposon activity, and the silencing of mitotic/meiotic genes during spermatogenesis. In addition, we identify Setd1b-mediated broad H3K4me3 domains in both mouse and human spermatids. These broad H3K4me3 domains promote Pol II occupancy and transcription, resulting in high gene expression in spermatids. Setd1b ablation leads to a complete loss of broad H3K4me3, and the redistribution of Pol II from broad H3K4me3 promoters to regular H3K4me3 promoters, thereby compromising temporal gene expression and ultimately hampering spermiogenesis. These findings reveal that dynamic epigenetic changes orchestrate stage-specific gene expression in spermatogenesis, with Setd1b-mediated broad H3K4me3 serving as a crucial regulator that controls the timing of stage-specific gene expression in spermatids.

Project description:Chromosomal translocations are important drivers of haematological malignancies whereby proto-oncogenes are activated by juxtaposition with super-enhancers, often called super-enhancer hijacking. We analysed the epigenomic consequences of rearrangements between the enhancers of the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus (IGH) and proto-oncogene CCND1 that are common in B-cell malignancies. By integrating BLUEPRINT epigenomic data with DNA breakpoint detection, we characterised the normal chromatin landscape of the human IGH locus and its dynamics after pathological genomic rearrangement. We detected an H3K4me3 broad domain (BD) within the IGH locus of healthy B-cells that was absent in samples with IGH-CCND1 translocations. The appearance of H3K4me3-BD over CCND1 in the latter was associated with overexpression and extensive chromatin accessibility of this locus. We observed similar cancer-specific H3K4me3-BDs associated with super-enhancer hijacking of other common oncogenes in B-cell (MAF, MYC and FGFR3) and in T-cell malignancies (LMO2, TLX3 and TAL1). Our analysis suggests that H3K4me3-BDs are created by super-enhancers and supports the new concept of epigenomic translocation, where the relocation of H3K4me3-BDs accompanies the translocation of super-enhancers.
