Project description:The resolution limit of chromatin conformation capture methodologies (3Cs) has restrained their application in detection of fine-level chromatin structure mediated by cis-regulatory elements (CREs). Here we report two 3C-derived methods, Tri-4C and Tri-HiC, utilizing mult-restriction enzyme digestions capable of achieveing ultrafine genome digestion for targeted and global chromatin interaction mapping, respectively, at a one hundred basepair resolution. Tri-4C identified loops associated with CREs including those involving regulatory elements devoid of typical epigenomic marks, quantifatively revealing alterations in interaction networks underlying dynamic gene control. Tri-HiC successfully uncovers fine-gage enhancer:promoter (E:P) loops at genome-wide level, identifying > 20-fold more CRE loops than in situ HiC. In addition to refined loop detection, Tri-HiC also reveals interaction stripes and contact domain insulation from promoters and enhancers, revealing their loop extrusion behaviors resembling the topologically-associated domain (TAD) boundaries. Tri-4C and Tri-HiC provide robust approaches to achieve the high resolution interactome maps required for characterizing fine-gage regulatory chromatin interactions in analysis of development, homeostasis and disease.

Project description:Background: The packaging of long chromatin fibres in the nucleus poses a major challenge, as it must fulfil both physical and functional requirements. Until recently, insight into the chromosomal architecture of plants was mainly provided by cytogenetic studies. Complementary to these analyses, chromosome conformation technologies promise to refine and improve our view on chromosomal architecture and to provide a more generalised description of nuclear organization. Results: Employing circular chromosome conformation capture (4C), this study describes chromosomal architecture in Arabidopsis nuclei from a genome-wide perspective. Surprisingly, the linear organisation of chromosomes is reflected in the genome-wide interactome. In addition, we studied the interplay of the interactome and epigenetic marks and report that the heterochromatic knob on the short arm of chromosome 4 (hk4s) maintained a pericentromere-like interaction profile and interactome despite its euchromatic surrounding. Conclusion: Despite the extreme condensation that is necessary to pack the chromosomes into the nucleus, the Arabidopsis genome appears to be packed in a predictive manner, according to the following criteria: (i) heterochromatin and euchromatin represent two distinct interactomes, (ii) interactions between chromosomes correlates with the linear position on the chromosome arm, and (iii) distal chromosome regions have a higher potential to interact with other chromosomes. This study includes circular chromosome conformation capture (4C) sequencing information of 13 samples, present in two batches, each present in duplicates (A and B). The individual 4C sequencing information can be retrieved by the 4C primer sequence, given in the 4C primer information file.

Project description:Chromosome conformation capture (3C) provides an adaptable tool through which to study diverse biological questions. Currently, 3C techniques provide either low-resolution interaction profiles across the entire genome, e.g. HiC, or high-resolution interaction profiles at up to several hundred loci, e.g. NG Capture-C and 4C-seq. Generation of high-resolution, genome-wide interaction profiles can feasibly be achieved through efficiency improvements to current high-resolution methods. To this end we systematically tested and removed areas inefficiency in NG Capture-C to develop a new method Nuclear Capture-C, which provides a 300% increase in informative sequencing content. Using Nuclear Capture-C we target 8,026 erythroid promoters in triplicate, showing that this method can achieve high-resolution genome-wide 3C interaction profiles at scale.

Project description:Background: Identification of locus-locus contacts at the chromatin level provides a valuable foundation for understanding of nuclear architecture and function and a valuable tool for inferring long-range linkage relationships. As one approach to this, chromatin conformation capture-based techniques allow creation of genome spatial organization maps. While such approaches have been available for some time, methodological advances will be of considerable use in minimizing both time and input material required for successful application. Results: Here we report a modified tethered conformation capture protocol that utilizes a series of rapid and efficient molecular manipulations. We applied the method to Caenorhabditis elegans, obtaining chromatin interaction maps that provide a sequence-anchored delineation of salient aspects of Caenorhabditis elegans chromosome structure, demonstrating a high level of consistency in overall chromosome organization between biological samples collected under different conditions. In addition to the application of the method to defining nuclear architecture, we found the resulting chromatin interaction maps to be of sufficient resolution and sensitivity to enable detection of large-scale structural variants such as inversions or translocations. Conclusion: Our streamlined protocol provides an accelerated, robust, and broadly applicable means of generating chromatin spatial organization maps and detecting genome rearrangements without a need for cellular or chromatin fractionation. Application of modified version of TCC protocl using different C. elegans strains (N2 and glp-1) in L1, and adult life stages.

Project description:Interactions between cis-regulatory elements such as promoters and enhancers are important for transcription but global identification of these interactions remains a major challenge. Leveraging the chromatin accessiblity of regulatory elements, we developed ARC-C (accessible region chromosome conformation capture), which profiles chromatin regulatory interactions genome-wide at high resolution. Applying ARC-C to C. elegans, we identify ~15,000 significant interactions at 500bp resolution. Regions bound by transcription factors and chromatin regulators such as cohesin and condensin II are enriched for interactions, and we use ARC-C to show that the BLMP-1 transcription factor mediates interactions between its targets. Investigating domain level architecture, we find that C. elegans chromatin domains defined by either active or repressive modifications form topologically associating domains (TADs) and that these domains interact to form A/B (active/inactive) compartment structure. ARC-C is a powerful new tool to interrogate genome architecture and regulatory interactions at high resolution.

Project description:Chromosome conformation capture-based methods such as Hi-C have become mainstream techniques for the study of the 3D organization of genomes. These methods convert chromatin interactions reflecting topological chromatin structures into digital information (counts of pair-wise interactions). Here, we describe an updated protocol for Hi-C (Hi-C 2.0) that integrates recent improvements into a single protocol for efficient and high-resolution capture of chromatin interactions. This protocol combines chromatin digestion and frequently cutting enzymes to obtain kilobase (Kb) resolution. It also includes steps to reduce random ligation and the generation of uninformative molecules, such as unligated ends, to improve the amount of valid intra-chromosomal read pairs. This protocol allows for obtaining information on conformational structures such as compartment and topologically associating domains, as well as high-resolution conformational features such as DNA loops.
