Project description:We studied genome topology dynamics during reprogramming of different somatic cell types with highly distinct genome conformations. We find large-scale TAD repositioning and alterations of tissue-restricted genomic neighborhoods and chromatin loops, effectively erasing the somatic cell specific genome structures while establishing an embryonic stem cell-like 3D genome. Yet, early passage iPSCs carry topological hallmarks that enable discerning their cell-of-origin. These hallmarks are not remnants of somatic chromosome topologies. Instead, the distinguishing topological features are acquired during reprogramming, as we also find for cell-of-origin dependent gene expression patterns. ChIPseq for CTCF and H3K27ac was performed on early and late iPS cells derived from different founders

Instead, the distinguishing topological features are acquired during reprogramming, as we also find for cell-of-origin dependent gene expression patterns. Transcriptome analysis was performed in somatic cells (NSC, macrophages, MEFs and pre-B cells) and their corresponding early and late induced pluripotent stem cells. In addition, expression analysis was performed in E14 embryonic stem cells
