Project description:Three-dimensional (3D) genome folding, which is highly cell type-specific, plays a crucial role in orchestrating spatiotemporal gene expression. Although factors such as CTCF have been extensively studied in the hierarchical regulation of 3D chromatin organization, the mechanisms driving dynamic genome folding during T cell fate transitions remain incompletely defined. In this study, we reveal that Satb1, a chromatin organizer enriched in the T cell lineage, co-occupies genomic regions with the cohesin complex and Ctcf in double-positive (DP) thymocytes, where chromatin interactions are notably increased. We show that Satb1 physically interacts with the cohesin subunit Smc1a, and its deletion results in aberrant Smc1a binding and reduced chromatin contacts at sites co-occupied by Satb1 and cohesin. In both DP and immature CD4 single-positive (SP) T cells, Satb1 is essential for proper T cell activation and cytokine signaling. At the Cd3 locus, Satb1 and cohesin collaboratively regulate gene expression, with Satb1 loss leading to disrupted Smc1a occupancy and compromised chromatin interactions. Furthermore, Satb1 shows in vitro properties consistent with liquid-liquid phase separation, and disease-associated mutations impair these properties. Together, our findings uncover a molecular mechanism in which Satb1 facilitates chromatin looping through direct interaction with the cohesin complex and its ability to form nuclear condensates, thereby governing transcriptional regulation during T cell development.

Project description:Mechanisms of tissue-specific gene expression regulation, particularly via spatial coordination of gene promoters and their regulatory elements are poorly understood. Here we investigated the 3D genome organization of developing murine T cells. We identified a tissue-specific genome organizer SATB1 as a factor enriched at the anchors of promoter-enhancer chromatin loops. To unravel its functions in T cells, we generated Satb1fl/flCd4-Cre+ (Satb1 cKO) conditional knockout animals. Satb1 cKO animals suffer from severe autoimmunity so we sought to investigate a potential link between the autoimmunity and putatively deregulated nuclear architecture caused by SATB1 depletion. This series of ATAC-Seq experiments is a part of SuperSeries including also RNA-Seq, Hi-C and HiChIP experiments to fully understand the deregulation of Satb1 cKO thymocytes and to unravel the roles of SATB1 in T cell chromatin organization. ATAC-Seq experiments supported the repressive nature of Satb1 cKO nuclear environment and together with the other datasets it showed that SATB1 functions primarily as an activator. SATB1 mediates promoter-enhancer chromatin loops affecting a number of master regulator genes whose deregulation in knockout animals may comprise a cell-intrinsic mechanism of the autoimmunity. Our findings indicate a possible existence of a special class of genome organizers controlling tissue and/or time-specific transcriptional programs via spatial chromatin arrangements that are complementary to the function of conventional and ubiquitously expressed genome organizers.

Project description:SATB1, a nuclear matrix-associated protein, has long been proposed to function as a global chromatin loop organizer in T cells. However, the precise roles of SATB1 in chromatin organization remain elusive. Here we show that the depletion of SATB1 in immortalized T cells led to pronounced changes in gene expression, particularly for genes involved in cell proliferation and T cell activation, as well as 3D genome architecture at multiple scales, including the A/B compartment, topologically associating domains (TADs), and loops. Importantly, SATB1 extensively colocalizes with CTCF throughout the genome. Depletion of SATB1 led to increased association among the SATB1/CTCF co-occupied sites, as well as increased chromatin contacts across these sites, thereby altering the genome-wide chromatin loop landscape. SATB1 does not regulate genome architecture by modulating CTCF occupancy. Rather, the topological effects imposed by SATB1 may be attributed to SATB1-dependent anchoring of CTCF to the salt extraction-resistant nuclear matrix. Together, our findings suggest that the functional interplay between nuclear matrix and CTCF plays a critical role in orchestrating 3D genome organization.

Project description:Special AT-rich binding protein 1 (SATB1) is a global chromatin organizer and a transcription factor induced by interleukin-4 (IL-4) during the early T helper 2 (Th2) cell differentiation. In this study, we investigated the role of SATB1 in T helper cell differentiation by performing ChIP-on-chip analysis of human cord blood CD4+ T cells cultured in Th1 and Th2 conditions. These results were combined with gene expression profiling results from human differentiating Th cells in which expression of SATB1 was downregulated by RNA interference (RNAi).Our results indicate that SATB1 regulates and is bound to sixty genes in primary human CD4+ T cells, including several IL-12 and/or IL-4 regulated factors, suggesting a role in the development or function of Th subtypes. Cross-linked chromatin obtained from human CD4+ T cells isolated from cord blood cultured in Th1 and Th2 conditions for 24 h was immunoprecipitated with anti-SATB1 antibody.

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells are involved in self tolerance, immune homeostasis, prevention of autoimmunity, and suppression of immunity to pathogens or tumours. The forkhead transcription factor FOXP3 is essential for Treg cell development and function as mutations in FOXP3 cause severe autoimmunity in mice and humans. However, the FOXP3-dependent molecular mechanisms leading to this severe phenotype are not well understood. Here we introduce the chromatin remodelling enzyme SATB1 (special AT-rich sequence-binding protein-1) as an important target gene of FOXP3. So far, SATB1 has been associated with normal thymic T-cell development, peripheral T-cell homeostasis, TH1/TH2 polarization, and reprogramming of gene expression. In natural and induced murine and human FOXP3+ Treg cells SATB1 expression is significantly reduced. While there is no differential epigenetic regulation of the SATB1 locus between Treg and Teffector cells, FOXP3 reduces SATB1 expression directly as a transcriptional repressor at the SATB1 locus and indirectly via miR-155 induction, which specifically binds to the 3’UTR of the SATB1 mRNA. Reduced SATB1 expression in FOXP3+ cells achieved either by overexpression or induction of FOXP3 is linked to significant reduction in TH1 and TH2 cytokines, while loss of FOXP3 function either by knock down or genetic mutation leads to significant upregulation of SATB1 and subsequent cytokine production. Alltogether, these findings demonstrate that reduced SATB1 expression in Treg cells is necessary for maintenance of a Treg-cell phenotype in vitro and in vivo and places SATB1-mediated T cell-specific modulation of global chromatin remodelling central during the decision process between effector and regulatory T-cell function. Gene expression profiling of freshly isolated CD4+ T cells, separated into CD25 negative and positive subpopulations, from three different donors. FOXP3 is stably and constitutively expressed at a high level in CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells and at a low level in CD4+CD25- cells.

Project description:Rag1 and Rag2 gene expression in CD4+CD8+ double positive (DP) thymocytes depends on the activity of a distant anti-silencer element (ASE) that counteracts the activity of an intergenic silencer. However, the mechanistic basis for ASE activity is unknown. Here we show that the ASE physically interacts with the distant Rag1 and Rag2 gene promoters in DP thymocytes, bringing the two promoters together to form an active chromatin hub. Moreover, we show that the ASE functions as a classical enhancer that can potently activate these promoters in the absence of the silencer or other locus elements. In thymocytes lacking the chromatin organizer SATB1, we identified a partial defect in Tcra gene rearrangement that was associated with reduced expression of Rag1 and Rag2 at the DP stage. SATB1 binds to the ASE and Rag promoters, facilitating inclusion of Rag2 in the chromatin hub and the loading of RNA polymerase II to both the Rag1 and Rag2 promoters. Our results provide a novel framework for understanding ASE function and demonstrate a novel role for SATB1 as a regulator of Rag locus organization and gene expression in DP thymocytes.
