Project description:During interphase, the eukaryotic genome is organized into chromosome territories that are spatially segregated into compartment domains. The extent to which interacting domains or chromosomes are entangled is not known. We analyze series of co-occurring chromatin interactions using multi-contact 3C (MC-3C) in human cells to provide insights into the topological entanglement of chromatin. Multi-contact interactions represent percolation paths (C-walks) through three-dimensional (3D) chromatin space. We find that the order of interactions within C-walks that occur across interfaces where chromosomes or compartment domains interact is not random. Polymer simulations show that such C-walks are consistent with distal domains being topologically insulated, that is, not catenated. Simulations show that even low levels of random strand passage, for example by topoisomerase II, would result in entanglements, increased mixing at domain interfaces and an order of interactions within C-walks not consistent with experimental MC-3C data. Our results indicate that, during interphase, entanglements between chromosomes and chromosomal domains are rare.

Project description:Background: DNA in the nucleus of a living cell carries out its functions in the context of a complex, three-dimensional chromatin architecture. Several recently developed methods, each an extension of the chromatin conformation capture (3C) assay, have enabled the genome-wide profiling of chromatin contacts between pairs of loci in yeast, fruit fly, human and mouse. Especially in complex eukaryotes, data generated by these methods, coupled with other genome-wide datasets, demonstrated that non-random chromatin folding correlates strongly with cellular processes such as gene expression and DNA replication. Here we describe a novel assay to map genome-wide chromatin contacts, tethered multiple 3C (TM3C), that involves a simple protocol of restriction enzyme digestion and religation of fragments upon agarose gel beads followed by deep DNA paired-end sequencing. In addition to identifying contacts between pairs of loci, TM3C enables identification of contacts among more than two loci simultaneously. Results: We use TM3C to assay the genome architectures of two human cell lines: KBM7, a near-haploid chronic leukemia cell line, and NHEK, a normal diploid human epidermal keratinocyte cell line. We confirm that the contact frequency maps produced by TM3C exhibit features characteristic of existing genome architecture datasets, including the expected scaling of contact probabilities with genomic distance, as well as a low noise-to-signal ratio between inter- and intrachromosomal contacts. We also confirm that TM3C captures several known cell type-specific contacts, ploidy shifts and translocations, such as Ph+ formation in KBM7. Furthermore, we develop a two-phase mapping strategy that separately maps chimeric subsequences within a single read, allowing us to identify contacts involving three or four loci simultaneously, potentially corresponding to combinatorial regulation events. This mapping strategy also greatly increases the number of distinct binary contacts identified and, therefore, the coverage obtained for a fixed number of mapped reads. We confirm a subset of the triplet contacts involving the IGF2-H19 imprinting control region (ICR) using PCR analysis for KBM7 cells. Assaying the genome architecture of a near-haploid cell line allows us to create 3D models of a human cell line without averaging signal from two homologous copies of a chromosome. Our 3D models of KBM7 show clustering of small chromosomes with each other and large chromosomes with each other, consistent with previous studies of the genome architectures of other human cell lines. Conclusion: TM3C is a simple protocol for ascertaining genome architecture and can be used to identify simultaneous contacts among three or four loci. Application of TM3C to a near-haploid human cell line revealed large-scale features of chromosomal organization and complex chromatin loops that may play a role in regulating reciprocal expression of the IGF2 and H19 genes. Analysis of the spatial organization of two human cell lines (KBM7, a near-haploid chronic leukemia cell line, and NHEK, a normal diploid human epidermal keratinocyte cell line) using tethered multiple 3C (TM3C), a novel and simple protocol for ascertaining genome architecture which can be used to identify simultaneous contacts among three or four loci in addition to binary contacts that can be identified using traditional chromosome conformation capture coupled with next generation sequencing (Hi-C).

Project description:The generation of highly diverse antigen receptors in T and B lymphocytes relies on V(D)J recombination. The enhancer Eα has been implicated in regulating the accessibility of Vα and Jα genes through long-range interactions during T cell antigen receptor gene Tcra rearrangements. However, direct evidence for Eα physically mediating the interaction of Vα and Jα genes is still lacking. In this study, we utilized the 3C-HTGTS assay, a chromatin interaction technique based on 3C, to analyze the higher-order chromatin structure of the Tcra locus. Our analysis revealed the presence of sufficient information in the 3C-HTGTS data to detect multi-way contacts. Three-way contact analysis of the Tcra locus demonstrated the co-occurrence of the proximal Jα genes, Vα genes, and Eα in CD4+CD8+ double-positive thymocytes. Notably, the INT2-TEAp loop emerged as a prominent structure likely responsible for bringing the proximal Jα genes and the Vα genes into proximity. Moreover, the enhancer Eα utilizes this loop to establish physical proximity with the proximal Vα gene region. This study provides insights into the higher-order chromatin structure of the Tcra locus, shedding light on the spatial organization of chromatin and its impact on V(D)J recombination.
