Studying the dynamics of three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure is essential to the understanding of biological processes in the nucleus. Integrative analysis of multi-omics data in recent publications have provided comprehensive and multilevel insight into 3D genome organization emphasizing its role for transcriptional regulation. While enhancers are regulatory elements that play a central role in the spatiotemporal control of gene expression, chromatin looping has been broadly accepted as a means for enhancer-promoter interactions yieldingcell-type-specific gene expression signatures. On the other hand, G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical DNA secondary structures that are enriched at promoters and related to increased gene expression, both. A role for G4s in promoter-distal regulatory elements, such as super-enhancers (SE), as well as in 3D genome organization and chromatin looping mediating long-range enhancer-promoter interactions has, however, remained elusive. Here we show that mature microRNA 9 (miR-9) is enriched at promoters and SE of genes that are inducible by tissue growth factor beta 1 (TGFB1) signaling. Further, we find that nuclear miR-9 is required for chromatin features related to increased transcriptional activity, such as broad domains of the euchromatin histone mark H3K4me3 (histone 3 tri-methylated lysine 4) and G4s. Moreover, we show that nuclear miR-9 is required for promoter-super-enhancer looping. Our study places a nuclear microRNA in the same structural and functional context with G4s and promoter-enhancer interactions during 3D genome organization and transcriptional activation induced by TGFB1 signaling, a critical regulator of proliferation programs in cancer and fibrosis.
