Status Public on Nov 12, 2015
Title BAF controls genome accessibility
Organism Homo sapiens
Experiment type Genome binding/occupancy profiling by high throughput sequencing
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary Somatic differentiation requires induction of lineage specific genes to fulfill specialized tissue functions yet the genomic control of this process is incompletely understood. Using the epidermis as a model, we show here that the BAF chromatin remodeling complex is essential to maintain a subset of open chromatin regions, which are strikingly enriched for the DNA binding motif of the stratified epithelial lineage-determining transcription factor p63 (p=1X10-1786). These p63 sites are intrinsically inaccessible. BAF is required to displace nucleosomes ~40 base pairs away from p63 motifs to enable p63 binding, to maintain active histone marks, and to recruit RNA polymerase II to promote gene expression. In this process, p63 was itself also essential for full BAF recruitment to p63 binding sites. Intrinsically, p63 binding sequences favor nucleosome occupancy. Our data therefore suggest a model where a lineage-specific transcription factor cooperates with the BAF complex to establish genome accessibility and engage tissue-specific gene expression.
 
Overall design We examined chromatin accessibility controlled by the cooperation between BAF and p63 using ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq. ATAC-seq was performed in differentiating primary human keratinocytes in control and Brg1/Brm knock down conditions, two replicates each. We further compared the ChIP-seq signal of H3K27me3, H3K4me1, PolII, H3K27Ac, and p300 in keratinocytes between Brg1/Brm loss versus control. To test whether p63 recruits BAF to its binding sites, we also performed BAF ChIP-seq in keratinocytes between p63 loss versus control. In addition, we performed RNA-seq in BAF loss, p63 loss, and control conditions.
