Identification of zebrafish GFP-positive active enhancers (zGPAEs) by integrating ATAC-seq and H3K27Ac ChIP-seq.

(A) Transverse section of an 11 hpf (4-somite stage) Tg(krt4:gfp) embryo, showing GFP is confined to the superficial layer of cells, and workflow of ATAC-seq in periderm and non-periderm cells. (B) Density plots of ATAC-seq results. Each line is centered on a nucleosome free region (NFR) with significantly more ATAC-seq reads in GFP-positive or GFP-negative cells; the majority of ATAC-seq peaks were not enriched in either cell type. Density plots also show H3K27Ac ChIP-seq signal in whole embryos at eight hpf and/or at 24 hpf data from Bogdanovic et al. (2012) at each of the GFP-positive NFRs; the latter are sorted in to those that overlap (or are flanked by within 100–1500 bp) peaks of H3K27Ac signal (cluster 1, 4301 elements) and or not (cluster 2, 7952 elements). (C) UCSC Genome browser tracks showing the ATAC-seq peaks in GFP-positive and GFP-negative cells, and H3K27Ac signal from whole embryos at eight hpf and at 24 hpf data from Bogdanovic et al. (2012) at the cldne locus. Boxes, examples of cluster one elements, also known as zebrafish GFP-positive active enhancers (zGPAEs). Elements are cldne+6 kb (zv9 : chr15:2625460–2625890), cldne +3 kb (chr15:2629012–2629544), cldne −8 kb (chr15:2639873–2640379), cldne −11 kb (chr15:2643578–2644160), and cldne TSS (chr15:2631981–2632513). (D) Plot of average density of H3K27Ac ChIP-seq signal (purple) and ATAC-seq signal (green). (E) GO enrichment for term ‘Gastrula:Bud 10–10.33 hr; periderm’ among NFRs enriched in GFP-positive cells with normalized fold change greater than 2 (ATAC(FC >2)) and 4 (ATAC(FC >4)), NFRs enriched in GFP-positive cells flanked or overlapped by 24hpf and 80% epiboly H3K27Ac ChIP-seq peaks (cluster 1) and or not (cluster 2), NFRs enriched in GFP-positve cells flanked or overlapped by 24hpf and 80% epiboly H3K4me1 ChIP-seq peaks (cluster 1) or not(cluster 2), NFRs enriched in GFP-positive cells flanked or overlapped by 24hpf H3K27Ac ChIP-seq peaks (cluster 1) or not (cluster 2), and NFRs enriched in GFP-positive cells flanked or overlapped by 80% epiboly H3K27Ac ChIP-seq peaks (cluster 1) or not (cluster 2). (F), (G) Lateral views of wild-type embryos at 11 hpf injected at the 1-cell stage with GFP reporter constructs built from (F) cldne +6 and (G) cldne transcription start site (TSS) elements. Left panels are stack views of the embryo, and right panels are surface plot for the embryos indicating most GFP signal is from the surface (periderm) of the embryos. Number in parentheses is the ratio of embryos with at least 10 GFP-positive periderm cells over injected embryos surviving at 11 hpf. (H) Volcano plot of RNA seq data, showing the expression of genes associated (by GREAT) with zGPAEs (green dots) or with zGNAEs (pink dots) in GFP-positive cells (beta-value >0) or in GFP-negative cells (beta-value <0). (I) Plot of accessibility scores of elements with differential accessibility (i.e., both zGPAEs and zGNAEs) associated with genes that are differentially expressed in GFP-positive and GFP-negative cells, showing that elements with increased accessibility in GFP-positive cells tend to be associated with genes whose expression is enriched in GFP-positive cells, and vice versa.

Putative regulatory interactions of major periderm-enriched transcription factors governing transcriptomic state in periderm cells at 4-somite stage.

Depending on the expression level in periderm cells (GFP-positive cells) most enriched transcription factors with the relevant motifs are in hexagon while other enriched transcription factors with the relevant motifs are in round. Each TF node is colored according to the normalized expression z-score (related to periderm genes). The thickness of each edge represents the number of motifs located in the all nearby enhancers to each TF (within 100kbp to the transcription start site).

[E05: H1 BMP4 Derived Trophoblast Cultured Cells; E027: Breast Myoepithelial Primary Cells; E028: Breast variant Human Mammary Epithelial Cells; E057, E058: Foreskin Keratinocyte Primary Cells; E079: Esophagus; E091: Placenta; E099: Placenta amnion; E119, Mammary Epithelial Primary Cells (HMEC); E127:NHEK-Epidermal Keratinocyte Primary Cells]. (B) Average density of H3K27Ac ChIP-seq signal in NHEK and GM12878 cells (Visel et al., 2008) at top 0.1% tiles using a zGPAE-trained classifier. (C) Genome browser view focused on IRF6-9.7, also known as IRF6 multispecies conserved sequence 9.7 (MCS9.7) (hg19 chr1:209989050–209989824). A SNP within it, rs642961 (chr1: 209989270), is associated with risk for non-syndromic orofacial cleft. Brazil mutation refers to a rare mutation reported in a patient with Van der Woude syndrome (Fakhouri et al., 2012). This element has peaks of H3K27Ac, IRF6, TP63, and KLF4 ChIP-seq in normal human keratinocytes. Multiz Alignments of 100 vertebrate species shows it is conserved among mammals but not in zebrafishNonetheless it possesses tiles in the top 1.0-1.5% and 0.2% bins using a zGPAE-trained classifier (D) Genome browser view focused on ZNF750-37 (hg19 chr17:80832267–80835105). This element has similar ChIP-seq signature as IRF6-9.7, and like it is not overtly conserved to fish but posseses high-scoring tiles using the zGPAE-trained classifier. (E) GFP expression pattern of Tg(IRF6-9.7:gfp; krt4:Tomato) at five dpf. (F) GFP expression pattern of Tg(ZNF750-37:gfp; krt4:Tomato) at five dpf. Both of these human non-coding elements have periderm enhancer activity in zebrafish embryos.

Lateral views of all wild-type mouse embryos for LacZ reporter assay.

(A) Embryos injected with a reporter construct built from a 701 bp element centered on SNP1, harboring the risk or non-risk allele as indicated. The large majority of embryos with SNP1 constructs, of either allele, were not blue, and no two blue embryos showed the same pattern. R-random integration, see below. No further copy number analysis was carried out. (B) Embryos injected with a reporter construct built from a 700 bp element centered on SNP2, harboring the risk or non-risk allele as indicated. Using the genomic DNA isolated from each embryo, PCR was carried out to determine if the reporter construct was present at all, and whether it was (S - single) present at the safe harbor locus in a single copy, (T - tandem), present at the safe harbor locus in more than one copy, or (R-random) was detectable but absent from the safe harbor locus, suggesting it integrated randomly into the genome (Kvon et al., 2020). One embryo (number 1, boxed) injected with a SNP2 construct (risk-allele) showed reporter activity in the periderm, as predicted. Quantitative PCR indicated this embryo had 8–10 copies of the reporter construct while the other T embryos had 2 copies.

Zebrafish ppl and human PPL enhancer alignments using ClustalO.

(a) Alignments summary for enhancer homology test between ppl-10 and PPL-8.3. (b) Alignments details for enhancer homology test between ppl-10 and PPL-8.3. All alignments were conducted using the CLUSTALW algorithm with default parameters via the Clustal Omega server (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/msa/clustalo/). Alignments were then annotated to highlight identical blocks of length 5 to 6 bp long (cyan) or longer (yellow). See Materials and methods for further details on the choice of enhancer fragments used in these alignments.
