Title Nucleosomal DNA has topological memory
Organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Experiment type Other
Summary One elusive aspect of the chromosome architecture is how it constrains the DNA topology. Nucleosomes stabilise negative DNA supercoils by restraining a DNA linking number difference (∆Lk) of about -1.26. However, whether this capacity is uniform across the genome is unknown. Here, we calculated the ∆Lk restrained by over 4000 nucleosomes in yeast cells. To achieve this, we placed each nucleosome in a circular minichromosome and performed Topo-seq, a high-throughput procedure to inspect the topology of circular DNA libraries in one gel electrophoresis. We found that nucleosomes inherently restrain distinct ∆Lk values depending on their genomic origin. Nucleosome DNA topologies differ at gene bodies (∆Lk=-1.29), intergenic regions (∆Lk=-1.23), rDNA genes (∆Lk=-1.24) and telomeric regions (∆Lk=-1.07). Nucleosomes near the transcription start and termination sites also exhibit singular DNA topologies. Our findings demonstrate that nucleosome DNA topology is imprinted by its native chromatin context and persists when the nucleosome is relocated.
 
Overall design A library of 4000 nucleosomes (NucLib) hosted in circular minichromosomes was inspected using Topo-seq. Nucleosomal DNAs were eluted from two gel sections (Topo-seq-A, Topo-seq-B) and sequenced to calculate the ∆Lk restrained by each nucleosome.

Each sample (NucLib, Topo-seq-A, Topo-seq-B) has been sequenced twice (replicate 1 & 2) and the number of reads of each sample combined into a unique dataset for the analyses.
