Summary (written by the submitters)
The cohesin protein complex extrudes chromatin between CTCF binding sites and organizes it into topologically associated domains (TADs), yet the biological implications of this regulatory mechanism are poorly understood. We show that the cohesin subunit Smc3 is required for the postmitotic differentiation and function of antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DCs).

In particular, Smc3 deletion impaired antigen cross-presentation and IL-12 secretion by type 1 conventional DCs (cDC1s), thereby crippling antimicrobial and antitumor immune responses. The chromatin profile of DCs was shaped by the interplay of cohesin and the cDC1-specifying transcription factor IRF8. Conversely, optimal expression of IRF8 itself required CTCF/cohesin-binding elements demarcating the Irf8 gene. Cohesin-mediated chromatin remodeling facilitated chromatin priming at activation-inducible genes; accordingly, deletion of CTCF/cohesin-binding sites flanking the Il12b gene reduced basal and activation-induced IL-12 production by cDC1s. Our data reveal an essential role for cohesin-mediated chromatin regulation in the differentiation and function of a key immune cell type.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE271283_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1130854 and SRA study SRP517490. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
