Summary |
Interactions between the genome and the nuclear pore complex (NPC) have been implicated in multiple gene regulatory processes, but the underlying logic of these interactions remains poorly defined. Here, we report high-resolution chromatin binding maps of two core components of the NPC, Nup107 and Nup93, which reveal differential binding of these NPC subunits to active genes and Polycomb-covered silent regions, respectively. Comparison to Lamin-associated domains (LADs) revealed that NPC binding sites are often found within LADs, demonstrating a linear binding of the genome along the nuclear envelope. Significantly, we identified a functional role of Nup93 in silencing of Polycomb target genes and in spatial folding of Polycomb domains. Our findings lend to a model where nuclear pores bind different types of chromatin via interactions with specific core sub-complexes of the NPC, and the Nup93 sub-complex functions as a stabilizing scaffold for Polycomb domains.
