(Submitter supplied) In higher eukaryotes, enhancers and promoters share many properties, including binding of transcription factors, existing in open chromatin, and bidirectional transcription. Yet the structural features that distinguish enhancers and promoters are unclear. Genome-wide micrococcal nuclease (MNase) studies previously interpreted MNase hypersensitivity to indicate that active enhancers and promoters are nucleosome-free, yet other studies found histone variants and post-translational modifications at active enhancers. more...

(Submitter supplied) Nuclear DNA is wrapped around core histones to form nucleosomes, which constrains how transcription factors bind to gene regulatory sequences. Pioneer transcription factors have the special ability to bind target DNA on nucleosomes and initiate gene regulatory events, often leading to a local opening of chromatin. Yet the nucleosomal configuration of such open chromatin and the basis for chromatin opening is unclear. more...

(Submitter supplied) Activation of transcription requires alteration of chromatin by complexes that increase the accessibility of nucleosomal DNA. Removing nucleosomes from regulatory sequences has been proposed to play a significant role in activation. We tested whether changes in nucleosome occupancy occurred on the set of genes that are activated by the unfolded protein response (UPR). We observed no decrease in occupancy on most promoters, gene bodies, and enhancers. more...

(Submitter supplied) Eukaryotic chromosomal DNA is assembled into regularly spaced nucleosomes, which play a central role in gene regulation by determining accessibility of control regions. The nucleosome contains ~147 bp of DNA wrapped ~1.7 times around a central core histone octamer. The linker histone, H1, binds both to the nucleosome, sealing the DNA coils, and to the linker DNA between nucleosomes, directing chromatin folding. more...

(Submitter supplied) FoxA transcription factors are critical for liver development through their pioneering activity, which initiates a highly complex network thought to become resistant to the loss of any individual hepatic transcription factor via mutual redundancy. To investigate the dispensability of FoxA factors for this regulatory network, we ablated all FoxA genes in the adult liver. Remarkably, loss of FoxA caused a rapid and massive reduction in the expression of key liver genes back to the low levels of the fetal prehepatic endoderm stage, leading to necrosis and lethality within days. more...

(Submitter supplied) Glucocorticoid hormone plays a major role in metabolism and many related diseases. The hormone-bound glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binds to a specific set of enhancers in different cell types, resulting in unique patterns of gene expression. GR-responsive enhancers have an accessible chromatin structure prior to hormone treatment (“pre-programmed”), whereas unresponsive enhancers specific to other cell types are inaccessible and inactive. more...

(Submitter supplied) Here we map six chromatin modifications -- H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac, H3K36me3, H3K9me3, and H3K27me3 -- genome-wide in male and female mouse liver in order to identify histone modifications that characterize sex-biased genes and sex-biased DNase hypersensitive sites and their regulation by plasma growth hormone (GH) profiles, which are sexually dimorphic. We find distinct mechanisms of regulation in male liver and female liver: sex-dependent K27me3-mediated repression is an important mechanism of repression of female-biased, but not of male-biased, genes, and a sex-dependent K4me1 distribution, suggesting nucleosome repositioning by pioneer factors, is observed at male-biased, but not female-biased, regulatory sites. more...

(Submitter supplied) By analysis of ChIP-exo of FOXA1 in LNCaP, we find that an astonishing genome-wide "well-positioned" configuration prevalently occurs between FOXA1 motif and the dyad of nucleosome. Here we performed ChIP-seq data of eight chromatin remodelers and found a higher occupancy of these remodelers on these well-positioned FOXA1 motif sites. Together, our results support a positional-nucleosome-oriented accessing model, in which FOXA1 can examine each underlying DNA nucleotide and be able to sense all potential motifs regardless if they face inward or outward to histone octamers along the DNA helix axis.

(Submitter supplied) Nucleosomes have structural and regulatory functions in all eukaryotic DNA-templated processes. The position of nucleosomes on DNA and the stability of the underlying histone-DNA interactions affect the access of regulatory proteins to DNA. Both stability and position are regulated through DNA sequence, histone post-translational modifications, histone variants, chromatin remodelers, and transcription factors. more...

(Submitter supplied) Understanding how silent genes can be competent for activation provides insight into development as well as cellular reprogramming and pathogenesis. We performed genomic location analysis of the pioneer transcription factor FoxA in the adult liver and found that about one-third of the FoxA bound sites are near silent genes, including genes without detectable RNA polymerase II. Virtually all of the FoxA-bound silent sites are within extended conserved sequences, suggesting possible function. more...

(Submitter supplied) Genetic variants associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk affect gene regulation in metabolically relevant tissues, such as pancreatic islets. Here, we investigated contributions of regulatory programs active during pancreatic development to T2D risk. Interrogation of chromatin maps from developmental precursors throughout pancreatic differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) identifies enrichment of T2D variants in pancreatic progenitor-specific stretch enhancers that are not active in islets. more...

(Submitter supplied) FOXA pioneer transcription factors (TFs) associate with primed enhancers in endodermal organ precursors. Using a human stem cell model of pancreas differentiation, we here discover that only a subset of pancreatic enhancers is FOXA-primed, whereas the majority is unprimed and engages FOXA upon lineage induction. Primed enhancers are enriched for signal-dependent TF motifs and harbor abundant and strong FOXA motifs. more...

(Submitter supplied) Nucleosomes in active chromatin are dynamic, but whether they have distinct structural conformations is unknown. To identify nucleosomes with alternative structures genome-wide, we used H4S47C-anchored cleavage mapping, which revealed that nucleosomes at 5% of budding yeast nucleosome positions have asymmetric histone-DNA interactions. These asymmetric interactions are enriched at nucleosome positions that flank promoters. more...
