    Abstract Cleavage under targets & release using nuclease (CUT&RUN) is a technique for identifying genomic sites where proteins or histone modifications are present in chromatin in permeabilized cells. Here, we present a fluorescence-based protocol to quantitatively titrate CUT&RUN buffer components, for efficient cell permeabilization and retention of target epitopes on chromatin. We describe steps for capturing cells on concanavalin A beads and using a fluorescently labeled secondary antibody to titrate concentrations of digitonin and NaCl in CUT&RUN buffers. We then detail procedures for fluorescence imaging to identify optimal conditions. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Lerner et al.

    Abstract Pioneer transcription factors interact with nucleosomes to scan silent, compact chromatin, enabling cooperative events that modulate gene activity. While at a subset of sites pioneer factors access chromatin by assisted loading with other transcription factors, the nucleosome-binding properties of pioneer factors enable them to initiate zygotic genome activation, embryonic development, and cellular reprogramming. To better understand nucleosome targeting in vivo, we assess whether pioneer factors FoxA1 and Sox2 target stable or unstable nucleosomes and find that they target DNase-resistant, stable nucleosomes, whereas HNF4A, a non-nucleosome binding factor, targets open, DNase-sensitive chromatin. Despite FOXA1 and SOX2 targeting similar proportions of DNase-resistant chromatin, using single-molecule tracking, we find that FOXA1 uses lower nucleoplasmic diffusion and longer residence times while SOX2 uses higher nucleoplasmic diffusion and shorter residence times to scan compact chromatin, while HNF4 scans compact chromatin much less efficiently. Thus, pioneer factors target compact chromatin through distinct processes.

    Abstract Tissue damage elicits cell fate switching through a process called metaplasia, but how the starting cell fate is silenced and the new cell fate is activated has not been investigated in animals. In cell culture, pioneer transcription factors mediate "reprogramming" by opening new chromatin sites for expression that can attract transcription factors from the starting cell's enhancers. Here we report that SOX4 is sufficient to initiate hepatobiliary metaplasia in the adult mouse liver, closely mimicking metaplasia initiated by toxic damage to the liver. In lineage-traced cells, we assessed the timing of SOX4-mediated opening of enhancer chromatin versus enhancer decommissioning. Initially, SOX4 directly binds to and closes hepatocyte regulatory sequences via an overlapping motif with HNF4A, a hepatocyte master regulatory transcription factor. Subsequently, SOX4 exerts pioneer factor activity to open biliary regulatory sequences. The results delineate a hierarchy by which gene networks become reprogrammed under physiological conditions, providing deeper insight into the basis for cell fate transitions in animals.
