Project description:The relationship between stochastic transcriptional bursts and dynamic 3D chromatin states is not well understood due to poor sensitivity and/or resolution of current chromatin structure-based assays. Consequently, it is not well established if enhancers operate individually and/or in clusters to coordinate gene transcription. In the current study, we introduce Nodewalk, which uniquely combines high sensitivity with high resolution to enable the analysis of chromatin networks in minute input material. The >10,000-fold increase in sensitivity over other many-to-all competing methods uncovered that active chromatin hubs identified in large input material, corresponding to 10 000 cells, flanking the MYC locus are primarily virtual. Thus, the close agreement between chromatin interactomes generated from aliquots corresponding to less than 10 cells with randomly re-sampled interactomes, we find that numerous distal enhancers positioned within flanking topologically associating domains (TADs) converge on MYC in largely mutually exclusive manners. Moreover, when comparing with several enhancer baits, the assignment of the MYC locus as the node with the highest dynamic importance index, indicates that it is MYC targeting its enhancers, rather than vice versa. Dynamic changes in the configuration of the boundary between TADs flanking MYC underlie numerous stochastic encounters with a diverse set of enhancers to depict the plasticity of its transcriptional regulation. Such an arrangement might increase the fitness of the cancer cell by increasing the probability of MYC transcription in response to a wide range of environmental cues encountered by the cell during the neoplastic process.

Project description:Extrachromsomal DNA (ecDNA) are prevalent in human cancers and are associated with high oncogene expression as well as altered chromatin. Here we show that multiple ecDNAs cluster in the nucleus during interphase to form ecDNA hubs, where oncogene transcription preferentially occurs. Single-cell multiomics, single-molecule sequencing, and 3D enhancer connectome reveal MYC ecDNAs are heterogenous in primary sequence and that ecDNA hubs support ectopic and intermolecular enhancer-promoter interactions. Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) extensively occupies ecDNA regulatory elements, and inhibition by JQ1 disperses ecDNA hubs and preferentially reduces ecDNA oncogene transcription. Two amplified oncogenes can intermix in ecDNA hubs, engage in intermolecular enhancer-promoter interactions, and transcription is uniformly sensitive to JQ1. Thus, ecDNA hubs – nuclear bodies of many ecDNAs tethered by proteins – are platforms for cooperative oncogene transcription. The recognition of ecDNA hubs as units of oncogene function and diversification has potentially broad implications for cancer cell evolution and therapy.

Project description:Despite that stochastic gene expression variations underlie lineage specification and adaptive responses, little is known about the plasticity of 3D chromatin folding and its effects on cell-to-cell transcriptional variability. Employing the Chromatin In Situ Proximity (ChrISP) technique we visualize here developmentally acquired chromosome 11-specific chromatin hubs rich in the repressive H3K9me2 mark that project towards the lamina in single cells. Inhibition of the H3Kme2 methyl-transferase G9a/Glp not only antagonizedperipheral chromatin compaction, but strikingly also induced the emergence of dense chromatin clusters in the nuclear interior. Changes in chromatin organization were accompanied by the spatial re-organization of transcriptional coordination without affecting the overall level of transcription. LOCKs thus topologically insulate active genes at the nuclear periphery, while allowing transcriptional coordination in the rest of the chromosome. We conclude that G9a/Glp controls not only the plasticity of chromatin conformations, but also spatial coordination of transcription to affect cellular gene expression variability.
