Things to do with ChIP chip…
General method for identification of– Target genes of transcription factors– Transcribed genes (Pol II)
– Transcribed miRNAs (Pol II)
– Chromatin states (ABs for modified histones)
– etc. – (any protein (mod AB) that binds DNA)

Kim, Barrera, Ren et al. Nature (2005)A high-resolution map of active promoters
in the human genome
• Found 12,150 bound regions (promoters)– 10,576 belong to 6,763 known genes– 1,196 un-annotated transcriptional units
• Many genes with multiple promoters• Clusters of active promoters• Four classes of promoters• Many novel genes (RNA genes?)
11
Technicalities• Follows similar work on ENCODE
regionsKim et al, Gen. Res. (2005); ENCODE project, Science (2004)
• Chip design: series of DNA microarrays covering 14.5 million (!) 50bp probes, covering all the human genome*
• IP design: Monoclonal AB to TAF1 (TAFII250) of TFIID
Kim et al. Map of active promoters
* Except for genomic repeats
12
Method• Compare IP to control DNA• Identify stretches of 4 bound probes• Re-check using a new array• Computational detection of 12,150
peaks (Mpeak)• Compare to known genes
(DBTSS, RefSeq, GenBank, EnsEMBL)
• 87% matched 5’ ends of known mRNAs (up to 2.5Kb)

Validation of results
• Anti-RNAP AB re-found 97% of bound promoters
• Standard ChIP found 27/28 of randomly selected bound promoters
• Bound promoters are enrichment for known TSS elements
• 97% of promoters had chromatin state of active genes – H3Ac, H3K4Me
Kim et al. Map of active promoters
15
Un-annotated promoters
• 1,597 promoters are ≥ 2.5Kb from 5’ of known genes
• 607 of them match EST• 632 of them are also bound by RNAP and in
the “right” chromatin state– Measure mRNA expression of 567 promoters
(50bp probes at 28Kb around each gene) – 35 new transcription units. Rest unstable?– One located 250bp ups to predicted miRNA

17
Un-annotated promoters
• 1,239 putative promoters correspond to novel transcription units.– Evolutionary conserved– Enriched with core promoter motifs
• 1,196 outside current gene annotation(13% of promoters)
Kim et al. Map of active promoters
18
Clusters of active genes
• 256 clusters of ≥4 active genes(1,668 EnsEMBL genes)
• 1609 genes had multiple promoters– Most have the same gene product– Some have different 1st exon– Some undergo different splicing
• All at a single cell type!

Gene Expression• 14,437 genes• IMR90 human fibroblast cells• Compare PIC occupancy to expression
Kim et al. Map of active promoters

• Classes I and IV are consistent (75% of genes)
• Class II - PIC is bound, no expression– PIC is assembled but not sufficient for TXN
• Contain immediate response genes (stress)
– mRNA transcribes but degraded (miRNA targets?)
• Class III - Expressed with no bound PIC– Test 10 random genes with ChIP (TFIID, RNAP)
– Nearly 60% were weakly bound

Odom, Young et al. Science (2004)Control of pancreas and liver gene
expression by HNF transcription factors
• Diabetes is bad.• Uncover the transcriptional regulatory
network that control insulin secretion.
• Human liver and pancreatic islets• Use ChIP for Pol II and 3 TFs• Measure expression of genes
24
Background
• Transcriptional regulation in the liver– HNF1α (homeodomain)– HNF4α (nuclear receptor)– HNF6 (onecut)
• Same with the pancreatic islets?– All three are require for normal function– Mutations maturity-onset diabetes of the
young (MODY3, MODY1)• Understand normal to explain abnormal
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
25
MODY• maturity-onset diabetes of the young• Genetic disorder of the insulin-secreting
pancreatic β cells• Onset of diabetes mellitus before 25• Autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance
• Not to confuse with type 2 (late-onset) diabetes– early-onset insulin resistance– functional defects in insulin secretion
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
26
Pancreas β cell
27
Hepatocyte
28
Method
• Identify targets of three TFs in two tissues• Identify transcribed genes (using Pol II)• Promoter array (13K genes)• -700bp to +200bp relatively to TSS
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
29
Hepatocyte targets of HNF1α
• 222 genes that represent a substantial section of hepatocyte biochemistry– gluconeogenesis and associated pathways– carbohydrate synthesis and storage– Lipid metabolism
(synthesis of cholesterol and apolipoproteins)
– Detoxification(synthesis of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases)
– Serum proteins(synthesis of albumin and coagulation factors).
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
30
Pancreas targets of HNF1α
• 106 genes, 30% of which bound in liver• Fewer chaperons and enzymes• Receptors and signal transduction genes vary• Many known targets are missing…
– Stringent criteria– Short promoters
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
31
Targets• HNF6 binds 227 (1.3%) and 189 (1.45%),
incl. important cell-cycle regulators• HNF4α 1575 (12%) and 1423 (11%)
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
– Two different ABs– Western blots– Standard ChIP (50)
– Other tissues (17)
– Preimmune ABs bind not– 80% (73%) also bound by PolII.
32
The transcriptome• “It is difficult to determine the transcriptome of these
tissues accurately by profiling transcript levels with DNA microarrays.”
• What is the appropriate reference RNA?• 2,984 (23%) are bound by Pol II in hepatocytes• 2,426 (19%) in islets, 81% of which by both• 80% (73%) of HNF4α are bound by Pol II• Three HNFs cover many of transcribed genes
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
33
Regulatory network
• Some differences between regulation in the two tissues
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
34
Regulatory network motifs
35
Multi-component loop• Capacity for feedback control and produce
bistable systems that can switch between two alternate states [Milo et al, 2002]
• The multi-component loop of HNF1α and HNF4α is responsible for stabilization of the terminal phenotype in pancreatic beta cells [Ferrer 2002]
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
36
Feed-forward loop
• A feedforward loop acts as a switch, sensitive to sustained inputs (rather than transient)
• HNF6 serves as a master regulator for feed-forward motifs in hepatocytes and pancreatic islets
• Involves >80 genes in each tissue
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
37
Regular Chain motifs
• Regulator chain motifs represent the simplest circuit logic for ordering transcriptional events in a temporal sequence
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
38
Summary
• HNF4α binds almost half of active genes in the liver and pancreas islets
• Crucial for development and function of these tissues
• Might explain why mutations can increase type II diabetes
Odom et al. HNF regulation in pancreas and liver
39
Boyer, Young et al. Cell (2005)Core transcriptional regulatory circuitry
in human embryonic stem cells• Embryonic stem cells are important
– Can be propagated in undifferentiated state – Can differentiate into >200 unique cell types– Great promise for regenerative medicine
• Reveal transcriptional regulatory circuitry controlling pluripotency and self-renewal.
• Early development and cell identity is controlled by several homeodomain TFs
40
Background• Early development and cell identity is
controlled by several homeodomain TFs• OCT4, SOX2, NANOG have central roles in
maintaining the pluripotency of stem cells• KO of each results with differentiation• Over-expression of OCT4 ~ NANOG KO• Why? Identify targets of each and see…
Boyer et al. Regulation in embryonic stem cells
41
Method• Human H9 embryonic stem cells• Agilent promoter arrays
– 60-mer probes– Spaced at ~300bp– Covering -8Kb to +2Kb relatively to TSS
• Including 98% of TRANSFAC binding sites (Wow!!)– 17,917 genes
• Replicate set of ChIP assay

Analysis of peaks found:• 623 genes (3%)• 5 miRNAs (3%)
Many known targets:• Mouse ES cells• Expressed in ES
Improved protocol• Better than Odom et al• <1% FPR, 20% FNR

44
Binding in proximity
• Co-binding suggests that OCT4, SOX2 & NANOG function together
Boyer et al. Regulation in embryonic stem cells
45
Function of TFs
• Checked expression these genes in ES cells (published data)
• 1,303/2,260 genes are active, 957 inactive• Of the 353 tri-bound genes, half active• Active include TFs (OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, STAT3, ZIC3),
components of TGF-β and Wnt pathways• Inactive genes include developmental TFs
(important for differentiation)
• Many other homeodomain TFs
