Volume 103, Issue 5, Pages 733-743 (November 2000) Transcription Factor Dosage Affects Changes in Higher Order Chromatin Structure Associated with Activation of a Heterochromatic Gene  Mats Lundgren, Cheok-Man Chow, Pierangela Sabbattini, Andrew Georgiou, Sophie Minaee, Niall Dillon  Cell  Volume 103, Issue 5, Pages 733-743 (November 2000) DOI: 10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00177-X

Figure 1 Experimental Approach (A) The λ5-VpreB1 locus. Vertical arrows indicate the positions of the hypersensitive sites. HS-1 is constitutive while the remaining HS are pre-B cell specific. Binding sites for EBF and the E2A proteins, E47 and E12, are indicated in the λ5 promoter (E47 and E12 are the products of differential splicing of the E2A primary transcript). (B) Strategy for targeting integration of the λ5 gene to centromeric heterochromatin. An 11 kb BamHI fragment containing the λ5 gene and the 3′ HS was flanked on either side by 4 copies of the major 234 bp mouse γ-satellite repeat (see Experimental Procedures for details). The fragment containing the gene and flanking repeats was excised and injected into mouse eggs. Cell 2000 103, 733-743DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00177-X)

Figure 2 Integration into Pericentromeric Heterochromatin Results in Position Effect Variegation (A) Metaphase FISH of centromeric λ5 transgenes. Chromosomes were hybridized with probes for the λ5 transgene (green) and centromeric γ-satellite sequences (red). DNA is counterstained with DAPI (blue). Overlapping signal from red, blue, and green results in a white signal for the transgene at the centromere. (B) RNA FISH analysis of pre-B cells. The cells were probed with λ5 (green) and β-actin (red), and counterstained with DAPI (blue). The upper panel shows the overlayed λ5 and DAPI signals, while the lower panel shows the same cells with overlayed β-actin and DAPI signals. The images are shown as deconvolved single optical sections. The nuclei exhibit the characteristic morphology of pre-B cells with long cytoplasmic inclusions extending deep into the nucleus (Zucker-Franklin et al. 1988). Non-TG cells are from a nontransgenic fetus and the TG cells are from a 25 copy long arm integration of the λ5 BamHI fragment with no flanking γ-satellite sequences (P. S., unpublished data). The fields labeled wt-1 contain cells from a bulk culture from wild-type line wt-1 (see above). The two clones (clones 1.1 and 1.2) were derived from wt-1 pre-B cells (see Experimental Procedures) and expanded to ∼2000 cells. (C) RNase protection analysis of wild-type (wt) and ΔHS-1 transgenics. RNA (10 μg from pre-B cells and fibroblasts) was analyzed using a probe that extended from +65 to + 563 in the λ5 gene (Sabbattini et al. 1999). The probe spans the oligonucleotide inserted at the ATG of the transgene, giving rise to a shorter protected fragment for the endogenous λ5 gene. A probe specific for β-actin transcripts was also included in the reactions. The reduced signal observed for β-actin in pre-B cells is a result of the lower level of expression of the β-actin gene in these cells compared with expression in fibroblasts. Bands were quantitated using a Phosphorimager. Expression per transgene copy is shown as a percentage of the value for the endogenous locus (corrected for the presence of two endogenous λ5 alleles).

Figure 3 Location on the Outside of the Centromere Is Dependent on a Constitutive DNase I Hypersensitive Site (A) Primary pre-B cells and embryonic fibroblasts from wt-1 were hybridized with probes to the λ5 transgene (green) and centromeres (red). Single deconvolved optical sections are shown. The large panels each show a single nucleus while the small panels show individual centromeric complexes. (B) Three-dimensional FISH of ΔHS1 λ5 transgenic interphase pre-B cells and fibroblasts. Primary cells from line ΔHS1–5 were hybridized with probes to the λ5 transgene (green) and centromeres (red). Single deconvolved optical sections are shown. The large panels each show a single nucleus. (C) Expressing and nonexpressing pre-B cell clones 1.1 and 1.2 (see Figure 2B) from wt-1 were hybridized as in (A). Cell 2000 103, 733-743DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00177-X)

Figure 4 Accessibility of the λ5 Transgene (A) Mapping of HS1 in fibroblasts. DNA from DNase I–digested nuclei was digested with BglII and hybridized with probe 1 (left panel) or with DraI and hybridized with probe 2 (right panel). Probe 1 was a 0.6 kb SacI-SphI fragment from exon III of λ5 (Sabbattini et al. 1999). Probe 2 extended from positions 6287 to 6485 downstream from the λ5 poly-A site. (B) Restriction enzyme accessibility analysis of λ5 wild-type and ΔHS1 transgenes in fibroblasts. Nuclei from primary embryonic fibroblasts were digested with PstI as described in Experimental Procedures. Times of digestion are shown above the lanes. The PstI-digested DNA was isolated and digested to completion with EcoRI and BamHI. As a control, isolated nontransgenic DNA was digested with PstI/EcoRI/BamHI. The blot was hybridized to a 446 bp λ5 fragment extending from the PstI site at position −296 to the EcoRI site at the end of the inserted oligonucleotide tag. Bands were quantitated using a Phosphorimager. The values shown are the mean ratios (± standard deviation) of digestion of the endogenous λ5 gene versus the transgene. The means were calculated from three separate experiments (eight measurements in total) for each of the two transgenic lines. The significance of the differences in accessibility between the endogenous genes and the transgenes was assessed using a paired t test (P < 0.00025).

Figure 5 Dosage of EBF Affects Location and Expression of the λ5 Transgene in Pre-B Cells (A) 3-D FISH was performed on pre-B cell cultures from ΔHS1–5 embryos homozygous (left panel) or heterozygous for EBF (right panel). Slides were hybridized with probes to the λ5 transgene (green) and centromeres (red). Single deconvolved optical sections are shown. (B) RNase protection analysis of RNA from ΔHS1-5 embryos homozygous or heterozygous for EBF. To avoid the problem of variation between embryos, cells from three wild-type and three heterozygous fetuses were pooled to give each of the RNA samples analyzed. The values underneath each lane are the amount of expression per transgene copy relative to the λ5 transgene. Cell 2000 103, 733-743DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00177-X)

Figure 6 Schematic Illustration of the Behavior of the λ5 Transgenes The figure shows a summary of the different types of location observed for the λ5 transgene. In fibroblasts, the transgene is located predominantly on the outside of the pericentromeric heterochromatin complex when HS1 is present, but becomes localized within the complex when HS1 is deleted. The presence of binding sites for the E2A proteins (E12 and E47) in HS1 suggests that they are involved in mediating the HS1-dependent effect. In pre-B cells containing two wild-type EBF alleles, the transgene is located mainly on the outside of the complex when HS1 is present or deleted. In cells that have only one functional EBF allele, >50% of the cells have the transgene located within the complex. Cell 2000 103, 733-743DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00177-X)
