Our knowledge of the role of higher-order chromatin structures in transcription of microRNA genes (MIRs) is evolving rapidly. Here we investigate the effect of 3D architecture of chromatin on the transcriptional regulation of MIRs. We demonstrate that MIRs have transcriptional features that are similar to protein-coding genes. RNA polymerase II-associated ChIA-PET data reveal that many groups of MIRs and protein-coding genes are organized into functionally compartmentalized chromatin communities and undergo coordinated expression when their genomic loci are spatially colocated. We observe that MIRs display widespread communication in those transcriptionally active communities. Moreover, miRNA-target interactions are significantly enriched among communities with functional homogeneity while depleted from the same community from which they originated, suggesting MIRs coordinating function-related pathways at posttranscriptional level. Further investigation demonstrates the existence of spatial MIR-MIR chromatin interacting networks. We show that groups of spatially coordinated MIRs are frequently from the same family and involved in the same disease category. The spatial interaction network possesses both common and cell-specific subnetwork modules that result from the spatial organization of chromatin within different cell types. Together, our study unveils an entirely unexplored layer of MIR regulation throughout the human genome that links the spatial coordination of MIRs to their co-expression and function.
Photoperiods integrate with the circadian clock to coordinate gene expression rhythms and thus ensure plant fitness to the environment. Genome-wide characterization and comparison of rhythmic genes under different light conditions revealed delayed phase under constant darkness (DD) and reduced amplitude under constant light (LL) in rice. Interestingly, ChIP-seq and RNA-seq profiling of rhythmic genes exhibit synchronous circadian oscillation in H3K9ac modifications at their loci and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) expression at proximal loci. To investigate how gene expression rhythm is regulated in rice, we profiled the open chromatin regions and transcription factor (TF) footprints by time-series ATAC-seq. Although open chromatin regions did not show circadian change, a significant number of TFs were identified to rhythmically associate with chromatin and drive gene expression in a time-dependent manner. Further transcriptional regulatory networks mapping uncovered significant correlation between core clock genes and transcription factors involved in light/temperature signaling. In situ Hi-C of ZT8-specific expressed genes displayed highly connected chromatin association at the same time, whereas this ZT8 chromatin connection network dissociates at ZT20, suggesting the circadian control of gene expression by dynamic spatial chromatin conformation. These findings together implicate the existence of a synchronization mechanism between circadian H3K9ac modifications, chromatin association of TF and gene expression, and provides insights into circadian dynamics of spatial chromatin conformation that associate with gene expression rhythms.
