Genome-wide profiling of RNA associated to the MSL-complex in Drosophila melanogaster

ABSTRACT: In Drosophila, the global increase in transcription from the X chromosome in males to compensate for its monosomy is mediated by the male-specific-lethal complex (MSL-C) consisting of five proteins and two non-coding RNAs, roX1 and roX2. After an initial sequence dependent recognition by the MSL-C of 150-300 high affinity sites, the spreading to the majority of the X-linked genes depends on local MSL-C concentration and active transcription. Here we ask whether any additional RNA species are associated to the MSL-C. No additional roX were found but a strong association was found between the msl2 mRNA and the MSL-C. Based on our results we propose a model in which a non-chromatin associated partial or complete MSL-C titrates newly transcribed msl2 mRNA and thus feed-back regulates the amount of available MSL-C. In total 12 samples; 4 Input files (4 different conditions) with the corresponding 8 RIP samples (2 different antibodies, same 4 conditions as Input)

Transcriptome profiling of wild type and Pof mutant Drosophila melanogaster females

Project description:In Drosophila, two chromosome-wide compensatory systems have been characterized; the dosage compensation system acting on the male X-chromosome and the chromosome specific regulation of genes located on the heterochromatic 4th chromosome. Dosage compensation in Drosophila is accomplished by hypertranscription of the single male X-chromosome mediated by the MSL-complex. The mechanism for this compensation is suggested to be an MSL-complex mediated enhanced transcriptional elongation while the mechanism for the compensation mediated by Painting of fourth (POF) on the 4th chromosome has remained elusive. Here we show that POF binds to nascent RNA and this binding is associated with an increase in amount of chromosome 4 transcripts. Furthermore, genes located on the 4th chromosome are enriched in binding of the nucleoplasmic nucleporin component NUP98 and this enrichment correlates to increased POF binding. We also show that genes located in heterochromatic regions have a shorter transition time from site of transcription and to the nuclear envelope. Our current work broadens the understanding about how genes in heterochromatic regions can overcome the repressive influence of their hostile environment. Pof mutant vs. wild type, 3 replicates

HP1a recruitment to promoters is independent of H3K9 methylation in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) proteins are important regulators of heterochromatin mediated gene silencing and chromosome structure and it is well known as the reader of the heterochromatin mark methylation of histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9me). In Drosophila three different histone lysine methyl transferases (HKMTs) are associated with the methylation of H3K9; Su(var)3-9, Setdb1 and G9a. To gain insights on the dependence of HP1a on the three different HKMTs, the division of labor between these methyl transferases and the dependence of HP1a on H3K9me we have studied HP1a binding in relation to H3K9me in mutants of these HKMTs. We show that Su(var)3-9 is responsible for the HP1a H3K9me-dependent binding in pericentromeric regions while Setdb1 controls the HP1a H3K9me-dependent binding to cytological region 2L:31 and together with POF chromosome 4. HP1a binds to the promoters and within gene bodies of active genes in these three regions. More importantly, HP1a bound at promoters of active genes are independent of H3K9me and POF and is associated to heterochromatin protein 2 (HP2) and open chromatin. Our results supports a model where HP1a nucleates with high affinity independent of H3K9me in promoters of active genes and then spreads via H3K9 methylation and transient looping contacts with those H3K9me target sites. In total 44 samples; 2 replicates for each genotype and for each ChIP (HP1a, H3K9me2 and H3K9me3)

ChIP-seq of MOF, MSL and NSL complex members in mouse ES cells and neuronal progenitors

Project description:We assessed the genome-wide binding of the histone acetylase MOF and members of its two associated complexes, the male-specific lethal and the non-specific lethal complex (MSL, NSL). We generated ChIP-seq profiles for MOF, MSL1, MSL2, KANSL3, and MCRS1 from mouse embryonic stem cells and neuronal progenitor cells. By using two replicates per sample and stringent filtering criteria, we identify five basic groups of genome regions where the proteins show either mutual or exclusive binding. We find that the NSL complex members (KANSL3, MCRS1) target the TSSs of broadly expressed genes with housekeeping functions in both cell types. MOF and particularly the MSL complex target a subset of these NSL-complex-targets, too. In addition, we find several thousand TSS-distal binding sites, particularly in ESCs, where KANSL3, MSL2 and MCRS1 show strong enrichments for annotated ESC enhancers. The vast majority of the binding to these ESC distal regulatory elements is lost in NPCs. Finally, we identify mostly intronic and intergenic regions with predominant MSL2 enrichments without the presence of its known interactors. These binding sites do not overlap with ESC marks of active chromatin (e.g. DNase hypersensitivity sites), but the they increase in number upon differentiation and we detect a strong signature of the (CAGA)n motif. Our study provides the first comprehensive analysis of MOF in the context of its two complexes in the mouse and reveals shared as well as distinct and dynamic functions for gene regulation and pluripotency. ChIP-seq of MOF and members of its associated complexes (MSL complex: MSL1, MSL2; NSL complex: KANSL3, MCRS1) in male mouse embryonic stem cells and neuronal progenitor cells derived from them.

RNA-seq of mouse ES cells depleted of MOF, MSL1, MSL2 or KANSL3

Project description:We have studied the regulatory potential of MYST1-(MOF)-containing MSL and NSL complexes in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and neuronal progenitors. We find that both complexes influence transcription by binding to promoters as well as TSS-distal enhancer regions. In contrast to flies, the MSL complex is not enriched on the X chromosome yet it is crucial for mammalian X chromosome regulation as it specifically regulates Tsix ncRNA, the major repressor of Xist lncRNA. MSL depletion leads to severely decreased Tsix expression, reduced REX1 recruitment, and consequently accumulation of Xist RNA in ESCs. The NSL complex provides additional, Tsix-independent repression of Xist by maintaining pluripotency. MSL and NSL complexes therefore act synergistically by using distinct pathways to ensure a fail-safe mechanism for the repression of X inactivation in ESCs. We have performed ChIP-seq of KANSL3, MCRS1, MOF, MSL1 and MSL2 in mouse ESCs, and KANSL3, MOF and MSL2 in NPCs, in duplicate and normalised against their inputs. We have also performed RNA-seq following knockdown of Kansl3, Mof, Msl1 and Msl2 mouse embryonic stem cells in triplicate. NB: Kansl3 and Mof knockdown-RNAseq are analyzed against their own scrambled controls, and Msl1 and Msl2 against another scrambled control triplicate.

MSL2 is required for upregulation of male X chromosome but not for expression of autosomal genes

Project description:Drosophila males double transcription of their single X chromosome to equalize X-linked gene expression with females, which carry two X chromosomes. Increased transcription requires the Male-Specific Lethal (MSL) complex. The MSL2 protein is essential component of the MSL complex. MSL2 is the only protein that is strictly limited to males. MSL2 together with MSL1 forms the core of the MSL complex. The global effect of msl2 mutation on gene expression was measured by microarray analysis. We found that expression of the X chromosome was decreased in msl21 male larvae, supporting the involvement of MSL2 in the up-regulation of X-linked genes. However, there was no change in expression of 4th chromosomal and heterochromatic genes. This finding is broadly comparable to reports of reduced X chromosome expression following msl2 RNAi knockdown in S2 cells. Hence MSL2 is required for up-regulation of male X chromosome where as it is not necessary for normal expression of 4th chromosomal genes and heterochromatic genes in Drosophila melanogaster males.

X chromosome dosage compensation via enhanced transcriptional elongation in Drosophila males (Control & MSL2 RNAi)

Project description:MSL (Male-specific lethal) complex increases transcription on the single X chromosome of Drosophila males in order to equalize expression of X-linked genes between males (XY) and females (XX). The increase in transcript levels correlates with MSL- dependent acetylation of histone H4 at K16 within the bodies of active genes, but identification of the transcriptional step affected has not been possible. In this study, we use global run-on sequencing (GRO-seq) to examine the specific effect of MSL complex on RNA Polymerase II (RNAP II) on a genome-wide level. Results indicate that MSL complex enhances transcription by facilitating the progression of RNAP II across the bodies of active X-linked genes. Improving transcriptional output downstream of typical gene-specific control may explain how dosage compensation can be imposed on the diverse set of genes along an entire chromosome. Global Run-On Sequencing (GRO-Seq) reads, i.e., RNA-Seq of nascent RNA transcripts, from D. Melanogaster SL2 cells. Two biological replicates of cells treated with control GFP RNAi and cells treated with MSL2 RNAi were analyzed.
