Study: Hybridization led to a rewired pluripotency network in Xenopus laevis [CUT&RUN]
show Abstracthide Abstract
After fertilization, maternally contributed factors to the egg initiate the transition to pluripotency, in large part by activating de novo transcription from the embryonic genome. Diverse mechanisms coordinate this transition across animals, suggesting that widespread evolutionary innovation has shaped the earliest stages of development. Here, we show that homologs of mammalian reprogramming factors OCT4 and SOX2 divergently regulate the two subgenomes of the allotetraploid Xenopus laevis, resulting in asymmetric activation of hundreds of homeologous gene pairs in the early embryo. Chromatin accessibility profiling and CUT&RUN for modified histones and transcription factor binding reveal extensive differences in enhancer architecture between the subgenomes, which likely arose after hybridization of X. laevis's diploid progenitors ~17 million years ago. However, comparison with diploid X. tropicalis shows broad conservation of embryonic gene expression levels when divergent homeolog contributions are combined, implying strong selection to maintain dosage in the pluripotency transcriptional program, amidst genomic instability following hybridization. Overall design: Histone modification and transcription factor CUT&RUN was performed on Stage 8-10.5 embryos. Control samples were handled identically to CUT&RUN samples except without primary antibody addition.

Construction protocol: CUT&RUN procedure was based on Hainer et al Cell 2019 and Skene et. al. Nature Protocols 2019. 12 embryos per sample were collected, devitellinized in 1mg/mL pronase, dissolved in MR/3, and cells were dissociated in 1 mL of NP2.0 buffer (Briggs et al Science 2018) with gentle agitation. Dissociated cells were lysed in NE buffer (20mM HEPES-KOH, pH 7.9, 10mM KCl, 500uM spermidine, 0.1% Triton X-100, 20% glycerol) with gentle pipetting with a clipped P1000, and the lysate was centrifuged at 600xg in 4C for 3 min. The free nuclei were then bound to 300 uL of activated concanavalin A beads at RT for 10mins. Nuclei were blocked for 5 min at RT then incubated in 1:100 dilution of primary antibody for 2 hr at 4C, washed, incubated in a 1:200 dilution of pA/G MNase for 1 hr at 4C, and washed again. The bound MNase was activated with 2 mM CaCl2 and allowed to digest for 30 mins, then stopped using 2x STOP buffer (200 mM NaCl, 20 mM EDTA, 4 mM EGTA, 50 ug/mL RNase A, 40 g/mL glycogen). Nuclei were incubated at 37C for 20 min followed by centrifuging for 5 min at 16,000xg, drawing off the DNA fragments with the supernatant. The extracted fragments were treated with SDS and proteinase K at 70C for 10 min followed by phenol chloroform extraction. Purified DNA was resuspended in 50 uL of water and verified by Qubit dsDNA high sensitivity and Fragment Analyzer. Sequencing libraries were built using the NEB Next Ultra II library build kit (E7645S) and size selected on an agarose gel to 150-600 bp. Libraries were multiplexed and sequenced paired-end at the Health Sciences Sequencing Core at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh.
