Project description:The relationship between cohesin-mediated chromatin looping and gene expression remains unclear. NIPBL and WAPL are two opposing regulators of cohesin activity; depletion of either is associated with changes in both chromatin folding and transcription across a wide range of cell types. However, a direct comparison of their individual and combined effects on gene expression in the same cell type is lacking. We find that NIPBL or WAPL depletion in human HCT116 cells each alter the expression of ~2,000 genes, with only ~30% of the genes shared between the conditions. We find that clusters of differentially expressed genes within the same topologically associated domain (TAD) show coordinated misexpression, suggesting some genomic domains are especially sensitive to either more or less cohesin. Finally, co-depletion of NIPBL and WAPL restores the majority of gene misexpression as compared to either knockdown alone. A similar set of NIPBL-sensitive genes are rescued following CTCF co-depletion. Together, this indicates that altered transcription due to reduced cohesin activity can be functionally offset by removal of either its negative regulator (WAPL) or the physical barriers (CTCF) that restrict loop-extrusion events.

Project description:Cohesin rings interact with DNA and modulate expression of thousands of genes. NIPBL loads cohesin onto chromosomes and WAPL takes it off. Heterozygous mutations in NIPBL lead to a developmental disorder called Cornelia de Lange syndrome. Nipbl heterozygous mice are a good model for this disease. Mutations in WAPL were not known to cause disease or gene expression changes in mammals. Here we show dysregulation of >1000 genes in Wapl-/+embryonic mouse brains. The patterns of dysregulation are highly similar in Wapl and Nipbl heterozygotes, suggesting that Wapl mutations may cause disease in humans. Since WAPL and NIPBL have opposite effects on cohesin’s association with DNA, we asked whether a heterozygous Wapl mutation could correct phenotypes seen in Nipbl heterozygous mice. In fact, both gene expression and embryonic growth are partially corrected. Our data are consistent with the view that cohesin dynamics play a key role in regulating gene expression.

Project description:Cohesin mediates sister chromatid cohesion and organizes the genome through the formation of chromatin loops. Two versions of the complex carrying either STAG1 or STAG2 show overlapping and specific functions and both are required to fulfill embryonic development. Cohesin-STAG1 displays longer residence time on chromatin that depends on CTCF and ESCO1 and establishes longer, long-lived chromatin loops together with CTCF. Cohesin-STAG2 shows a preferential interaction with WAPL and mediates shorter loops involved in tissue-specific transcription independently of CTCF. Here we show that the two variants respond in opposite ways to knock down of NIPBL, the putative cohesin loader that is also essential for loop extrusion. Cohesin-STAG1 levels increase on chromatin under this condition and the complex accumulates further at CTCF positions while cohesin-STAG2 is diminished genome-wide. Our data support a model in which NIPBL is not required for association of cohesin with chromatin but it is for loop extrusion, which in turn facilitates stabilization of cohesin-STAG2 at CTCF positions after being loaded elsewhere. In contrast, cohesin-STAG1 is preferentially loaded at CTCF sites independently of NIPBL. Nevertheless, loop formation by these chromatin-bound complexes is impaired and gene expression is severely affected, resembling alterations in Cornelia de Lange patients

Project description:Mammalian genomes contain several billion base pairs of DNA which are packaged in chromatin fibers. At selected gene loci, cohesin complexes have been proposed to arrange chromatin fibers into higher-order structures, but it is poorly understood how cohesin performs this task, how important this function is for determining the structure of chromosomes, and how this process is regulated to allow changes in gene expression. Here we show that the cohesin release factor Wapl controls chromatin structure and gene regulation at numerous loci throughout the mouse genome. Conditional deletion of the Wapl gene leads to stable accumulation of cohesin on chromatin, chromatin compaction, altered gene expression, cell cycle delay, chromosome segregation defects and embryonic lethality. In Wapl deficient chromosomes, cohesin accumulates in an axial domain, similar to how condensins form a M-bM-^@M-^\scaffoldM-bM-^@M-^] in mitotic chromosomes. We propose that Wapl controls chromatin structure and gene regulation by determining the residence time with which cohesin binds to DNA. 4 biological replicates for each genotype (Wapl +/F; Wapl -/F) treated with/without 4-OHT =16 samples

In Wapl deficient chromosomes, cohesin accumulates in an axial domain, similar to how condensins form a “scaffold” in mitotic chromosomes. We propose that Wapl controls chromatin structure and gene regulation by determining the residence time with which cohesin binds to DNA. ChIP-Seq using two different antibodies (CTCF, Smc3); one (CTCF) and two (Smc3) replicates; two different genotypes (Wapl +/delta, Wapl -/delta). The control sample is a single-replicate INPUT for each genotype.

Project description:For its association with chromatin, the cohesin complex depends on a heterodimer formed by NIPBL and MAU2. Variants in NIPBL are the main cause of CdLS and result in NIPBL haploinsufficiency. Using CRISPR, we generated cells homozygous for an out-of-frame duplication in NIPBL. Remarkably, alternative translation initiation rescued NIPBL expression in these cells and produced an N-terminally truncated NIPBL that lacks MAU2-interaction domain, causing a dramatic reduction of MAU2 protein levels while a lot of NIPBL functions remain intact.
