Summary |
We postulated that the primary DNA sequences, particularly abundant repetitive elements embedded in the genome, may instruct genome folding. Short and long interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs and LINEs, respectively) are two predominant sub-families of retrotransposons in most mammals. LINE-1 (LINE1 or L1) constitutes the most abundant type of repeat subclasses, making up to 18.8% and 17% (0.9~1.0 million copies) of the genome in mouse and human, respectively. B1 in mouse and its closely related, primate-specific Alu elements in human are the most abundant subclass of SINEs, constituting 2.7%~10% (0.6~1.4 million copies) of mouse and human genomes. Here, we demonstrate that B1/Alu and L1 repeats demarcate the genome into the A/B compartments and serve as the blueprint for the three-dimensional (3D) organization of mammalian genomes. Our finding explains the robustness and evolutionary conservation of nuclear chromatin organization in mammals.
H3K9me3 ChIP-seq upon L1 AMO treatment; We electrotransfected L1 AMO into mESC to block L1 transcripts for 36 h and a standard control from GenTools was used as control -"SCR". We performed H3K9me3 ChIP-seq in mESCs treated with L1 or SCR AMO for 36 h. We found that L1 AMO did not alter the genome-wide binding of H3K9me3, ruling out the possibility that the loss of organization relates to changes in local heterochromatin marks.
