Abstract

The mouse Igh locus is organized into a developmentally regulated topologically associated domain (TAD) that is divided into subTADs. Here we identify a series of distal VH enhancers (EVHs) that collaborate to configure the locus. EVHs engage in a network of long-range interactions that interconnect the subTADs and the recombination center at the DHJH gene cluster. Deletion of EVH1 reduces V gene rearrangement in its vicinity and alters discrete chromatin loops and higher order locus conformation. Reduction in the rearrangement of the VH11 gene used in anti-PtC responses is a likely cause of the observed reduced splenic B1 B cell compartment. EVH1 appears to block long-range loop extrusion that in turn contributes to locus contraction and determines the proximity of distant VH genes to the recombination center. EVH1 is a critical architectural and regulatory element that coordinates chromatin conformational states that favor V(D)J rearrangement.
