Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in NCCIT cells

ABSTRACT: H2B mono-ubiquitylation is required for multiple methylations of both H3K4 and H3K79 and has been implicated in gene expression from yeast to human. However, molecular crosstalk between H2BUb1 and other modifications, especially H3K4 and H3K79 methylations, remains unclear in vertebrates. To understand the functional role of H2BUb1, genome-wide histone modification patterns were measured in human cells. This study proposes dual roles of H2BUb1 that are both H3 methylation dependent and independent. First, H2BUb1 is a 5'-enriched active transcription mark and is co-occupied with H3K79 methylations in actively transcribed regions. Importantly, this study found a unique role of H2BUb1 in chromatin architecture independent of histone H3 methylations. H2BUb1 is well positioned in exon-intron boundaries of highly expressed exons and is specifically enriched in 5'-biased exons. Furthermore, H2BUb1 demonstrates increased occupancy in skipped exons compared to flanking exons for the human and mouse genome. Our findings suggest that a potentiating mechanism links H2BUb1 to both H3K79 methylations in actively transcribed regions and the exon-intron structure of highly expressed exons through the regulation of nucleosome dynamics during transcription elongation. We generated high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) data for genome-wide occupancy of H2BUb1, nucleosome, H3K4me3, H3K36me3, H379me1/2/3, H3Ac, and mRNA in human embryonic carcinoma cells. We performed ChIP-seq for seven different histone modifications, MNase-seq, mRNA-seq (two replications), and inputDNA-seq in NCCIT cell lines (human embryonic carcinoma cell lines). We also performed mRNA-seq for RNF20-siRNA transfected NCCIT cells, where H2BUb1 signals decreased.

Project description:Functional centromeres are essential for proper cell division. Centromeres are established largely by epigenetic processes resulting in incorporation of the histone H3 variant CENP-A. Here, we demonstrate the direct involvement of H2B monoubiquitination, mediated by RNF20 in humans or Brl1 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, in centromeric chromatin maintenance. Monoubiquinated H2B (H2Bub1) is needed for this maintenance, promoting noncoding transcription, centromere integrity and accurate chromosomal segregation. A transient pulse of centromeric H2Bub1 leads to RNA polymerase IIM-bM-^@M-^Smediated transcription of the centromereM-bM-^@M-^Ys central domain, coupled to decreased H3 stability. H2Bub1-deficient cells have centromere cores that, despite their intact centromeric heterochromatin barriers, exhibit characteristics of heterochromatin, such as silencing histone modifications, reduced nucleosome turnover and reduced levels of transcription. In the H2Bub1-deficient cells, centromere functionality is hampered, thus resulting in unequal chromosome segregation. Therefore, centromeric H2Bub1 is essential for maintaining active centromeric chromatin. ChIP: In total 17 samples; 15 ChIP DNA files (7 different conditions) 2 Input files.

Project description:Transcript elongation by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) is accompanied by conserved patterns of histone modification within transcribed regions, but it remains uncertain how these modifications influence, or are influenced by, properties of the elongation complex. Here we establish an intimate link between Cdk9, the kinase component of positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb), and mono-ubiquitylation of histone H2B (H2Bub1), in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Mutations that impair Cdk9 function reduce H2Bub1 levels in vivo. Conversely, mutations that prevent H2Bub1 decrease phosphorylation of elongation factor subunit Spt5, a sensitive and specific indicator of Cdk9 activity. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis suggests this is due to impaired Cdk9 recruitment to H2Bub1-deficient chromatin. P-TEFb and H2Bub1 pathways also interact genetically: mutation of the histone H2B ubiquitin-acceptor residue decreases the requirement for Cdk9 activity in vivo, and multiple cdk9 mutations suppress morphological defects of H2Bub1-deficient strains. Moreover, H2Bub1 loss causes redistribution of transcribing RNAPII on chromatin that is corrected by a hypomorphic cdk9 mutation. Therefore, whereas mutual dependence of Spt5 phosphorylation and H2Bub1 suggests positive feedback between P-TEFb and the ubiquitylation machinery, mutual suppression by cdk9 and H2Bub1-pathway mutations indicates an antagonistic relationship, whereby the activities must be balanced to properly regulate elongation. In order to study the genome-wide localization of H2Bub1 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, H2Bub1, H2B-Flag as well as RNAPII (along with associated DNA sequences) were immunoprecipitated using repectively anti-H2Bub1, anti-Flag and anti-8WG16 antibodies. The ChIPs were performed in duplicate from WT cells as well as in the H2B-K119R mutant. The extracted DNA was hybridized to a DNA microarray containing an average of 4 probes per kilobase across the whole yeast genome. The combined datasets are available in the supplemental files of the related publication.
