Direct Recruitment of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) to Chromatin by Core Binding Transcription Factors (microarray)

ABSTRACT: Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs) play key roles in developmental epigenetic regulation. Yet the mechanisms that target PRCs to specific loci in mammalian cells remain incompletely understood. In this study, we show that Bmi1, a core component of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), binds directly to the Runx1/CBFbeta transcription factor complex. Genome-wide studies in megakaryocytic cells demonstrate considerable chromatin occupancy overlap between the PRC1 core component Ring1b and Runx1/CBFbeta and functional regulation of a significant fraction of commonly bound genes. Bmi1/Ring1b and Runx1/CBFbeta deficiency generate partial phenocopies of one another in vivo. We also show that Ring1b occupies key Runx1 binding sites in primary murine thymocytes and that this occurs via Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) independent mechanisms. Genetic depletion of Runx1 results in reduced Ring1b binding at these sites in vivo. These findings provide evidence for site-specific PRC1 chromatin recruitment by core binding transcription factors in mammalian cells. shRNA mediated knockdown of CBFb, Ring1b and control in biological triplicate

Project description:NguyenLK2011 - Ubiquitination dynamics in Ring1B-Bmi1 system This theoretical model investigates the dynamics of Ring1B/Bmi1 ubiquitination to identify bistable switch-like and oscillatory behaviour in the system. Michaelis-Menten (MM) equations are used to formulate the model. However, the authors show that the dynamics persist even for Mass-Action kinetics. This SBML file is the MM version of the model. This model is described in the article: Switches, excitable responses and oscillations in the Ring1B/Bmi1 ubiquitination system. Nguyen LK, Muñoz-García J, Maccario H, Ciechanover A, Kolch W, Kholodenko BN. PLoS Comput. Biol. 2011 Dec; 7(12): e1002317 Abstract: In an active, self-ubiquitinated state, the Ring1B ligase monoubiquitinates histone H2A playing a critical role in Polycomb-mediated gene silencing. Following ubiquitination by external ligases, Ring1B is targeted for proteosomal degradation. Using biochemical data and computational modeling, we show that the Ring1B ligase can exhibit abrupt switches, overshoot transitions and self-perpetuating oscillations between its distinct ubiquitination and activity states. These different Ring1B states display canonical or multiply branched, atypical polyubiquitin chains and involve association with the Polycomb-group protein Bmi1. Bistable switches and oscillations may lead to all-or-none histone H2A monoubiquitination rates and result in discrete periods of gene (in)activity. Switches, overshoots and oscillations in Ring1B catalytic activity and proteosomal degradation are controlled by the abundances of Bmi1 and Ring1B, and the activities and abundances of external ligases and deubiquitinases, such as E6-AP and USP7.
