Summary |
Lamins (A/C and B) are type V intermediate filaments and constitute the major cytoskeleton component of nuclei. They are assembled forming a filamentous meshwork that is mainly located between the inner nuclear membrane and the peripheral chromatin in where they form structural and conserved elements called lamin-associated domains (LADs) that cover around 40% of the mammalian genome. However, a small fraction of lamins are also located in the nucleoplasm although is still unclear if represents a fraction that is in transit towards the nuclear membrane, a reservoir for protein turnover or they have specific functions in nuclear organization6. Here we mapped genome-wide the localization of lamin B1 from an enriched euchromatin fraction. Our analysis show for the first time that lamin B1 can be also associated with active euchromatin forming domains of about half a megabase on average in size. These euchromatin lamin B1 domains (eLADs) are constituted by active and accessible euchromatin showed by RNAseq and ATACseq. Importantly, we have analyzed its behavior at the onset of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), a cellular transformation process essential during development and reactivated in cancer cells. Our results suggest that eLADs are dynamic and functional during EMT. Finally, Hi-C data during this cellular transformation showed changes in the frequency of chromatin contacts around the TSS in genes enriched in lamin B1 before the generation of new regulatory elements in the mesenchymal state. Taken together, these results demonstrate that not only heterochromatin but euchromatin is organized into lamin domains as well. Moreover, these eLADs are dynamic, functional and essential for chromatin organization and gene regulation during the EMT.

Overall design |
List of ChIPseq samples (LaminB1 at 0h/8h/24h), ATACseq samples (at 0h/8h/24h), RNAseq samples (control at 0h/8h/24h and control/LaminB1 knock-down at 0h/8h/24h) and HiC samples (EMT transformation at 0h/8h/24h).
