Project description:Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), a key regulator of metazoan development, induces transcriptional silencing by organizing repressive chromatin structures. To understand PRC2 associated genome topology, we performed chromatin interaction analyses focusing on three core subunits of PRC2 in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Our comprehensive and high-resolution PRC2 interactome reveals connectivity networks manifested by the extensive looping between distal regulatory elements (DREs) and genes controlling differentiation. The deletion of these non-coding DREs in mice results in transcriptional de-repression and embryonic lethality. While functioning as silencers in ESCs, these DREs can transition into active enhancers during development, suggesting their dual regulatory activities. Integrative analysis of the three dimensional genome organization and spatial clusters of PRC2-chromatin hubs reveals the compact, peripheral assembly as the structural basis of the silencing compartments. Our study uncovers the molecular identity of PRC2 silencers, their associated genome architectures, and offers the exciting possibility of targeted re-activation of epigenetically silenced genes.

Project description:We mapped long-range chromatin interactions in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), iPSCs, and fibroblasts, and uncovered an ESC-specific genome organization that is gradually re-established during reprogramming. Confirming previous results, we show that open, accessible and closed chromatin character is the primary determinant of long-range chromatin interaction preferences. Importantly, we find that in ESCs, genomic regions extensively occupied by the pluripotency factors Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog preferentially co-localize. Similarly, regions strongly enriched for Polycomb-proteins and H3K27me3 frequently interact, and loss of the Polycomb-protein Eed diminishes these interactions without dramatically changing overall chromosome-conformation. Consistent with a spatial segregation of transcriptional networks in ESCs, Nanog and Polycomb-proteins occupy distinct nuclear spaces. Together, our data reveal that transcriptional networks that govern ESC identity play a role in genome-organization. 4C-seq was performed using a variety of baits on range of mouse cell lines, namely, ESCs, reprogrammed iPSCs, partially reprogrammed pre-iPSCs, and differentiated MEFs. Additionally, 4C-seq was performed on a partially overlapping set of baits for a Eed mutant mouse ESC line and a sibling wild-type ESC line.

Project description:Silencers active in the Drosophila embryonic mesoderm were identified by reporter assays in dissociated embryonic cells. We find that, despite the presence of ChIP peaks for known transcriptional corepressors and marks of repressed chromatin, the only significantly enriched source of mesodermal silencers is non-mesodermal enhancers. We present evidence that a subset of silencers acts by looping to target promoters.

Project description:In mammals, totipotent pre-implantation embryos are formed by fusion of highly differentiated oocytes and spermatozoa. Acquisition of totipotency concurs with remodeling of chromatin states of parental genomes (M-bM-^@M-^\epigenetic reprogrammingM-bM-^@M-^]), changes in maternally contributed transcriptome and proteome, and zygotic genome activation. Genomes of mature germ cells are more proficient in supporting embryonic development than those of somatic cells. It is currently unknown whether transgenerational inheritance of chromatin states present in mature gametes underlies the efficacy of early embryonic development after natural conception. Here, we show that Ring1 and Rnf2, two core components of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), serve redundant gene regulatory functions during oogenesis that are required to support embryonic development beyond the two-cell stage. Numerous developmental regulatory genes that are established Polycomb targets in various somatic cell types are de-repressed in Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant (dm) fully grown germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes. Translation of tested aberrant maternal transcripts is, however, delayed until after fertilization. Exchange of maternal pro-nuclei between control and Ring1/Rnf2 maternally dm early zygotes demonstrates an essential role for Ring1 and Rnf2 during oogenesis in defining cytoplasmic and nuclear maternal contributions that are both essential for proper initiation of embryonic development. A large number of genes up-regulated in Ring1/Rnf2 dm GV oocytes harbor PRC2-mediated histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in spermatozoa and in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), and are repressed during normal oogenesis and early embryogenesis. These data strongly support the model that Polycomb acts in the female and male germline to silence differentiation inducing genes and to program chromatin states, thereby sustaining developmental potential across generations. Expression profiling of fully grown mouse GV oocytes was performed with the following genotypes: Ring1+/+Rnf2F/F (control), Ring1-/-Rnf2F/F (Ring1 mutant), Ring1+/+Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Rnf2 mutant) and Ring1-/-Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant). 12 samples were analyzed: 3 biological replicates of each of the 4 genotypes (Ring1+/+Rnf2F/F (control), Ring1-/-Rnf2F/F (Ring1 mutant), Ring1+/+Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Rnf2 mutant) and Ring1-/-Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant)). Each sample contains 50 GV oocytes.

These data strongly support the model that Polycomb acts in the female and male germline to silence differentiation inducing genes and to program chromatin states, thereby sustaining developmental potential across generations. Expression profiling of late 2-cell embryos was performed with the following genotypes: maternal Ring1-Rnf+ (control), maternal Ring1-Rnf2- (maternal Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant). These embryos were obtained by crossing Ring1-/-Rnf2F/F control females or Ring1-/-Rnf2F/F Zp3-cre expreimental females, respectively, to Ring1+/+Rnf2F/F control males. To distinguish between maternal transcripts present in the 2-cell embryo and newly (embryonicaly) transcribed transcripts, embryos from both genotypes were either not treated (expression profiling therefore shows all maternal and embryonic transcripts) or alpha-amanitin treated (alpha-amanitin inhibits de novo transcription, therefore expression profiling of treated embryos will only show maternal transcripts). 11 samples were analyzed: 3 biological replicates (except alpha-amanitin treated maternal Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant, where only 2 replicates were analyzed) of each genotype and treatment group were analyzed. Each sample contains 40 late 2-cell embryos.

Project description:To investigate possible smRNAs linked to TMM silencing by single-stranded and double-stranded silencers, we determined sequences of smRNAs by the Illumina high-throughput sequencing platform and compared silencing efficiency of different strategies. We found that single-stranded silencer alone could promote the production of smRNAs. smRNA profiles of 2-week-old wide type seedlings (WT) and different silencers were generated by Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx.
