摘要:Hi-C技术源于染色体构象捕获 (Chromosome Conformation Capture, 3C) 技术,用于分析染色质三维空间结构的一种测序方法。将三维基因组用甲醛交联固定,用内切酶进行酶切后在DNA末端加生物素标记,使DNA与蛋白、蛋白与蛋白分开,然后,提取DNA并打断成小片段,用磁珠捕获带生物素标记的片段进行建库测序,对测序数据进行分析即可揭示染色体的远程相互作用,阐述染色体的三维构象和可能的基因之间的调控关系。该技术广泛用于分化发育机制、突变机制、疾病的发生发展等研究,也是近年来解析染色体水平的参考基因组的一个关键环节。
以枯叶蛱蝶属蝴蝶为例,利用Hi-C技术获得蝴蝶特定发育时期的基因组序列,结合生物信息分析方法,研究全基因组范围内整个染色质DNA在空间位置上的关系,从而获得高分辨率的染色质三维结构信息,为组装蝴蝶的染色体水平的参考基因组提供重要的数据。

研究背景
Hi-C (High-through chromosome conformation capture) 技术 (Dekker et al., 2002) 源于染色体构象捕获 (conformation capture, 3C) 技术,以整个细胞核为研究对象,利用高通量测序技术,结合生物信息分析方法,研究全基因组范围内整个染色质DNA在空间位置上的关系,通过对染色质内部全部DNA相互作用模式进行捕获,获得高分辨率的染色质三维结构信息。2009年,Job Dekker研究团队 (Lieberman-Aiden et al., 2009) 首次提出了Hi-C测序的概念,并利用该技术得到人类正常淋巴细胞基因组的三维结构图。通过Hi-C技术可以获得全基因组范围内的互作信息,得到染色体三个层级的三维结构,即常染色质/异染色质 (A/B compartment)、拓扑相关结构域 (TAD)、染色质环 (loop);通过Hi-C技术可建立基因组折叠模型,研究染色体之间相互作用;Hi-C技术可应用于基因组组装、单体型构建等,并可以与RNA-seq、ChIP-seq等数据进行联合分析,从基因调控网络和表观遗传网络来阐述生物体性状形成的相关机制。Hi-C技术在蝴蝶中的应用也越来越广泛,例如,中国科学院昆明动物研究所进化基因组学与基因起源研究团队于2019年利用Hi-C技术结合三代长读长测序技术 (Pacbio) 完成了染色体水平的碧凤蝶 (Papilio bianor Cramer, 1777) 基因组组装 (29条常染色体和1条性染色体),这是首个利用Hi-C技术完成的染色体水平的蝴蝶基因组 (Lu et al., 2019);并于2020年利用Hi-C技术结合三代长读长测序技术 (Pacbio) 和核型实验成功解析了枯叶蛱蝶 (Kallima inachus Doyère, 1840) 染色体水平的高质量基因组 (30条常染色体及Z和W两条性染色体),这是首个组装了W染色体的蝴蝶参考基因组,也是至今组装得最完整的蝴蝶参考基因组 (Yang et al., 2020)。
