The Paradox of Genomics How does a long, static, one dimensional string of DNA turn into the remarkably complex, dynamic, and three dimensional human body? GTTTGCCATCTTTTG CTGCTCTAGGGAATC CAGCAGCTGTCACCA TGTAAACAAGCCCAG GCTAGACCAGTTACC CTCATCATCTTAGCT GATAGCCAGCCAGCC ACCACAGGCATGAGT QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture. Looks like ‘code’ not enough, must study actual cells & DNA QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture. How DNA is Used by the Cell Promoter Tells Where to Begin Different promoters activate different genes in different parts of the body. A Computer in Soup Idealized promoter for a gene involved in making hair. Proteins that bind to specific DNA sequences in the promoter region together turn a gene on or off. These proteins are themselves regulated by their own promoters leading to a gene regulatory network with many of the same properties as a neural network. Regulation By Txn Factor Binding When I-KB is removed from by phosphorylation, NF-KB complex binds to dna. Note that you would need Both NF-KB p65 and NF-KB p50 Subunits to be expressed in same cell For this transcription activation Pathway to work. Selective, combinatorical expression of txn factors is very important In defining different types of cells. The Decisions of a Cell • When to reproduce? • When to migrate and where? • What to differentiate into? • When to secrete something? • When to make an electrical signal? The more rapid decisions usually are via the cell membrane and 2nd messengers. The longer acting decisions are usually made in the nucleus.

QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture. Turning on a gene: • Getting DNA into the right compartment of the nucleus (may involve very diffuse signals in DNA over very long distances) • Loosening up chromatin structure (this involves enhancers and repressors which can act over relatively long distances) • Attracting RNA Polymerase II to the transcription start site (these involve relatively close factors both upstream and downstream of transcription start). 4 HISTONE MODIFICATIONS Modification Effect H3K4me3 H3K4me2 H3K4me1 H3acK9/14 H4acK5/8/12/16 Slide adapted from Christoph Kock, Sanger Institute Methods for Studying Transcription Traditional • Genetics in model organisms • Promoters/enhancers hooked to reporter genes • Gel shifts and DNAse footprinting. ENCODE/High Throughput • Phylogenic footprinting • Motif searches in clusters of coregulated genes. • Chromatin Immunoprecipitation & CHIP/CHIP • DNAse hypersensitivity Drosophila Genetics QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture. normal antennapedia mutant QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture.

A program sampled 200 evenly spaced bases across 500 bases upstream of transcription, the 5’ UTR, the first coding exon, introns, middle coding exons, introns, the 3’ UTR and 500 bases after polyadenylatoin. There are peaks of conservation at the transition from one region to another. Normalized eScores Conservation Levels of Regulatory Regions in Human/Mouse Alignments Dnase I Hypersensitivity, CHIP/CHIP, transcription data on ENR333 CHromatin ImmunoPrecipitation • Crosslink cells with formaldehyde. • Sonicate to shear DNA • Add antibody to a protein involved in transcription. • Precipitate antibody and and everything attached • Heat to release DNA. • Analyse DNA with PCR or microarrays – CHIP on microarray = CHIP/CHIP CHIP/CHIP in ENCODE • groups: Sanger, Yale, Affy, UCSD, Stanford, GIS (more?) • proteins: RNA Pol II, TAF1, histones in various states of acylation/methylation • cells: various cell lines treated various ways. CHIP/CHIP Groups • Sanger - sequencing center in UK that does a lot of annotation as well. • UCSD/Ludwig Institute - where Bing Ren, a pioneer of CHIP lives • GIS - Genome Institute Singapore - using “paired-end ditag” CHIP. • Stanford, YALE, Affy you all know. CHIP/CHIP Targets • RNA Polymerase II, converts DNA->RNA for protein coding genes. – Antibody targets form in initiation complex (start of gene) • TAF1 - A basal transcription factor. Involved in recruiting Pol II to initiation site • Histones 3&4 - the balls DNA winds around – Antibodies against various acylated and methylated forms, most of which are associated with chromatin opening Cell Types • • • • • HELA - cervical epithelial carcinoma HCT116 - colon epithelial carcinoma IMR90 - lung fibroblast THP1 - blood monocyte leukemia GMO6990 - lymphoblastoid • HL-60 - promyelocytic leukemia cell line • Many others in Stanford promoter track. DNAse hypersensitivity • Very old technique being adapted to high throughput. • DNA cutting enzymes can access open chromatin faster than closed chromatin • Other things may also influence how susceptible a particular piece of DNA is to DNAse cutting. • What is hypersensitive in a particular cell line is quite reproducible. • There are various techniques for seeing where cut is: sequencing cut ends, PCR around cut site, etc. Dnase I Hypersensitivity, CHIP/CHIP, transcription data on ENR333 Dnase I Hypersensitivity, CHIP/CHIP, transcription data on ENR333 Close up of same region The END How is a gene turned on? • “Pioneering” transcription factors bind to DNA and tag it for “chromatin opening” • Histones are acylated/methylated which opens chromatin. • More transcription factors bind newly exposed sites in DNA. • RNA Polymerase II attracted to txn factors • Yet more txn factors phosphorylate tail of Pol II, allowing it to start transcription.
