Acetylation at the lateral surface of the nucleosome at lysine 64 of H3 regulates chromatin dynamics and defines transcriptionally active chromatin

ABSTRACT: Post-translational modifications of proteins have emerged as a major mechanism for regulating gene expression. Yet our understanding of how histone modifications directly affect chromatin function remains limited. Here, we investigate acetylation of histone H3 at lysine 64 (H3K64ac), a previously uncharacterized acetylation site on the lateral surface of the histone octamer. We show that H3K64ac regulates nucleosome dynamics by (i) destabilizing nucleosomes, and (ii) regulating chromatin remodelling. Both of these functions have the potential to regulate gene expression. In line with this, we show that the p300 co-activator acetylates H3K64 both in vitro and in vivo. H3K64ac is enriched at the transcriptional start sites (TSS) of active genes and defines transcriptionally active chromatin in ES cells. Moreover, we find that H3K64ac is dynamic during developmental reprogramming, and during mammalian spermatogenesis where H3K64 hyperacetylation precedes histone replacement. Consistent with a function in transcriptional activation, H3K64ac opposes its repressive counterpart H3K64me3. Our findings reveal an important role for a histone modification within the nucleosome core as a regulator of chromatin function in vivo and they demonstrate that lateral surface modifications can define functionally opposing chromatin states. In this study, 2 biological replicate samples for H3K64ac ChIP and one sample of H3K9ac ChIP in mouse emryonic stem cells were analyzed using custom designed Nimblegen HD2.1oligonucleotide tiling arrays.

Genomic prevalence of heterochromatic H3K9me2 and transcription do not discriminate pluripotent from terminally differentiated cells (ChIP-chip)

Project description:Cellular differentiation entails reprogramming of the transcriptome from a pluripotent to a unipotent fate. This process was suggested to coincide with a global increase of repressive heterochromatin, which results in a reduction of transcriptional plasticity and potential. Here we report the dynamics of the transcriptome and an abundant heterochromatic histone modification, dimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 9 (H3K9me2), during neuronal differentiation of embryonic stem cells. In contrast to the prevailing model, we find H3K9me2 to occupy over 50% of chromosomal regions already in stem cells. Marked are most genomic regions that are devoid of transcription and a subgroup of histone modifications. Importantly, no global increase occurs during differentiation, but discrete local changes of H3K9me2 particularly at genic regions can be detected. Mirroring the cell fate change many genes show altered expression upon differentiation. Quantitative sequencing of transcripts reveals however that the total number of active genes is equal between stem cells and several tested differentiated cell types. Together, these findings reveal high prevalence of a heterochromatic mark in stem cells and challenge the model of low abundance of epigenetic repression and resulting global transcription in stem cells. Instead cellular differentiation entails local rather than global changes in epigenetic repression and transcriptional activity. Our dataset comprises of 2 ChIP-seq samples using chromatin from embryonic stem (ES) cells and derived terminal neurons (TN) which was immunoprecipitated, using antibodies against H3K27me3 and H3K4me2. For the same cells we generated H3K9me2 ChIP-chip samples in biological replicates. For ES cells, neurons and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) we generated biological replicates of RNA-seq data.

Gene regulation and priming by Topoisomerase IIÎ± in embryonic stem cells [ChIP-chip]

Project description:Topoisomerases are essential for resolving topological problems in the genome, while their function in gene regulation, especially during cellular differentiation, remains elusive/unknown. We reveal that the expression of two Topo II isoforms, Top2Î± and Top2Î², is characteristic of dividing and postmitotic tissues, respectively. In embryonic stem cells, Top2Î± preferentially binds to promoters embedded in an active chromatin environment. Inhibition of Top2Î± activity results in misregulation of target gene expression that accompanies accumulation of double-strand breaks. Common targets of Top2Î± and Top2Î² are housekeeping genes while their unique targets are involved in proliferation/pluripotency and neurogenesis (Can we say this as this might be because we are driving neurons from ES cells), respectively. Moreover, a small subset of Top2Î± targets exhibit bivalent chromatin state that is resolved upon differentiation concomitant with their activation and occupancy by Top2Î², a feature further observed for large lengthlong genes. These findings suggest that Top2Î± not only contributes to stem cell transcriptome regulation but may also prime developmental genes for subsequent activation by Top2Î². Chromatin IP was performed with Top2Î± antibodies in WT ES cells and hybridized to custom designed tiling array.

Investigation upon the state of p53 as well as interaction partners, in so much as can be learned from using the multi-component v5-dTag system.

Project description:Chromatin modifications provide additional context-dependence for DNA sequence-based gene regulation. Binding sites of the transcription factor (TF) and important tumour suppressor p53 are unusually diverse with regards to their chromatin accessibility and histone modifications, suggesting different modes of binding. Here, we show that the ability of p53 to open chromatin and activate its target genes is locally restricted by its cofactor Trim24. The histone-binding domains of Trim24 limits the role of p53 at closed chromatin but not at accessible chromatin where Trim24 is blocked by histone 3 methylation at lysine 4. In turn, p53 regulates gene expression as a function of the naïve chromatin state prior to activation. These findings establish a novel mode of gene regulation by p53 in closed chromatin and illustrate how histone modification sensing cofactors can bridge local chromatin state and TF potency.

Readout of histone methylation by Trim24 locally restricts chromatin opening by p53

Project description:The genomic binding sites of the transcription factor (TF) and tumour suppressor p53 are unusually diverse in regards to their chromatin features, including histone modifications, opening the possibility that chromatin provides context-dependence for p53 regulation. Here, we show that the ability of p53 to open chromatin and activate its target genes is indeed locally restricted by its cofactor Trim24. Trim24 binds to both p53 and unmethylated lysine 4 of histone H3, thereby preferentially locating to those p53 sites that reside in closed chromatin, while it is deterred from accessible chromatin by lysine 4 methylation. The presence of Trim24 increases cell viability upon stress and enables p53 to impact gene expression as a function of the local chromatin state. These findings link histone methylation to p53 function and illustrate how specificity in chromatin can be achieved, not by TF-intrinsic sensitivity to histone modifications, but by employing chromatin-sensitive cofactors which locally modulate TF function.

Genome-wide profiling of Su(H) in Drosophila melanogaster BG3 cell lines

Project description:The conserved Notch pathway functions in diverse developmental and disease-related processes, requiring mechanisms to ensure appropriate target-selection and gene activation in each context. To investigate, we partitioned Drosophila chromatin into different states, based on histone modifications, establishing the preferred chromatin conditions for binding of CSL, the Notch pathway transcription factor. While most histone modifications were unchanged by CSL binding or Notch activation, rapid changes in H3K56 acetylation occurred at Notch regulated-enhancers. This modification extended over large regions, required the histone acetyl-transferase CBP and was independent of transcription. Such rapid changes in H3K56 acetylation are a conserved indicator of enhancer activation, also occurring at mammalian Notch-regulated Hey1 and at Drosophila ecdysone-regulated genes. This core histone modification may therefore underpin the changes in chromatin accessibility needed to promote transcription following signaling activation. Su(H) profile of BG3 cells in control condition and EGTA treated condition. In total 8 samples, 4 replicates of Su(H) ChIP in hbss condition and 4 replicates of Su(H) ChIP in EGTA treated BG3 cells.
