Project description:In S. cerevisiae, replication timing is controlled by epigenetic mechanisms restricting the accessibility of origins to limiting initiation factors. About 30% of these origins are located within repetitive DNA sequences such as the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) array, but their regulation is poorly understood. Here, we have investigated how histone deacetylases (HDACs) control the replication program in budding yeast. This analysis revealed that two HDACs, Rpd3 and Sir2, control replication timing in an opposite manner. Whereas Rpd3 delays initiation at late origins, Sir2 is required for the timely activation of early origins. Moreover, Sir2 represses initiation at rDNA origins whereas Rpd3 counteracts this effect. Remarkably, deletion of SIR2 restored normal replication in rpd3 cells by reactivating rDNA origins. Together, these data indicate that HDACs control the replication timing program in budding yeast by modulating the ability of repeated origins to compete with single-copy origins for limiting initiation factors.

Project description:The cohesin complex holds together newly-replicated chromatids and is involved in diverse pathways that preserve genome integrity. We show that in budding yeast, cohesin is transiently recruited to active replication origins and it spreads along DNA as forks progress. When DNA synthesis is impeded, cohesin accumulates at replication sites and is critical for the recovery of stalled forks. Cohesin enrichment at replication forks does not depend on H2A(X) formation, which differs from its loading requirements at DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). However, cohesin localization is largely reduced in rad50delta mutants and cells lacking both Mec1 and Tel1 checkpoint kinases. Interestingly, cohesin loading at replication sites depends on the structural features of Rad50 that are important for bridging sister chromatids, including the CXXC hook domain and the length of the coiled-coil extensions. Together, these data reveal a novel function for cohesin in the maintenance of genome integrity during S phase.

Project description:Transcriptional networks have been shown to evolve very rapidly, prompting questions as to how such changes arise and are tolerated. Recent comparisons of transcriptional networks across species have implicated variations in the cis-acting DNA sequences near genes as the main cause of divergence. What is less clear is how these changes interact with trans-acting changes occurring elsewhere in the genetic circuit. Here, we report the discovery of a system of compensatory trans and cis mutations in the yeast AP-1 transcriptional network that allows for conserved transcriptional regulation despite continued genetic change. We pinpoint a single species, the fungal pathogen Candida glabrata, in which a trans mutation has occurred very recently in a single AP-1 family member distinguishing it from its Saccharomyces ortholog. Comparison of chromatin immunoprecipitation profiles between Candida and Saccharomyces shows that, despite their different DNA binding domains, the AP-1 orthologs regulate a conserved block of genes. This conservation is enabled by concomitant changes in the cis-regulatory motifs upstream of each gene. Thus, both trans and cis mutations have perturbed the yeast AP-1 regulatory system in such a way as to compensate for one another. This demonstrates an example of “co-evolution” between a DNA-binding transcription factor and its cis-regulatory site, reminiscent of the co-evolution of protein binding partners. 3 Experiments were performed. Three replicates CgAp1-TAP was ChIPped under MMS treatment (GSM397447..GSM397449), two replicates each of ScYap1R79K and ScYap4K252R (GSM594724..GSM594727), were ChIPped under MMS treatment.

Project description:In budding yeast, the selective integration of the Ty1 LTR retrotransposon upstream of RNA polymerase III (Pol III)-transcribed genes requires the interaction between the AC40, a common subunit of Pol III and Pol I, and Ty1 integrase (IN1). The AC40/IN1 interaction involves a short sequence, the targeting domain (TD), present in the C-terminal part of IN1. Chip-seq analysis using WT or mutated Ty1 integrase demonstrated that TD is responsible for the recruitment of IN1 at both Pol I and Pol III-transcribed genes. Moreover, the introduction of the C-terminal residues of Ty1 in the Ty5 retrotransposon, which preferentially integrates in heterochromatin at silent mating loci (HMR and HML) and near telomeres, leads to its retargeting at Pol III-transcribed genes.

Project description:Numerous long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were shown to have functional impact on cellular processes, such as human epidermal homeostasis, but for only a few the mode of action has been elucidated. Here, we report that lncRNA LINC00941 controls keratinocyte differentiation on a global level through association with the MTA2/NuRD complex, one of the major chromatin remodelers in cells. LINC00941 was found to interact with NuRD-associated MTA2, suppressing the expression of the transcription factor EGR3, a regulator of epidermal differentiation. Both LINC00941 and the MTA2/NuRD complex are enriched in non-differentiated keratinocytes and repress the expression of differentiation genes through epigenetic silencing of EGR3, consequentially preventing premature differentiation of human progenitor cells.

Project description:DNA replication of eukaryotic chromosomes initiates at a number of discrete loci, called replication origins. Distribution and regulation of origins are important for complete duplication of the genome. Here, we determined locations of Orc1 and Mcm6, components of pre-replicative complex (pre-RC), on whole genome of Schizosaccharomyces pombe using a high-resolution tiling array. Pre-RC sites were identified in 460 intergenic regions, where Orc1 and Mcm6 colocalized. By mapping of 5-bromo-2â-deoxyuridine (BrdU)-incorporated DNA in the presence of hydroxyurea (HU), 307 pre-RC sites were identified as early-firing origins. In contrast, 153 pre-RC sites without BrdU incorporation were considered to be late and/or inefficient origins. Early and late origins tend to distribute separately in large chromosome regions. Inactivation of replication checkpoint by deletion of Cds1 resulted in BrdU incorporation with HU specifically at the late origins. An origin-exchange experiment showed that replication timing was not intrinsic to origin but dependent on its surrounding region. Interestingly, pericentromeric heterochromatin and the silent mating type locus replicated in the presence of HU, while the inner centromere or subtelomeric heterochromatin did not. Notably, MCM did not bind to inner centromeres where ORC was located. Thus, replication is differentially regulated in chromosome domains.

Project description:Integrated breeding strategies are used to increase both the yield potential and stability of crops. Most of these approaches have a direct genetic basis. The utility of epigenetics in breeding to improve complex traits such as yield and stress tolerance is not clear. A better understanding of the status of the epigenome and its contribution to the agronomic performance would help in developing strategies to incorporate the epigenetic component of complex traits in breeding,Starting from isogenic canola lines, epilines were generated by selecting recursively during three generations for lines with a higher energy use efficiency and drought tolerance. These epilines were more energy use efficient, drought tolerant, high nitrogen use efficient, and higher yielding under suboptimal conditions. Moreover, these characteristics were transgenerational inheritable. Transcriptome comparison with a line selected for energy use efficiency only revealed common differentially expressed genes related to the onset of signaling events regulating stress tolerance. Genes related to salt, osmotic, abscisic acid and drought were specifically differentially expressed in the drought tolerant epilines. The status of the epigenome, scored as differential trimethylation of lysine 4 of histone 3, supports the energy use efficient and drought tolerant phenotype by facilitating transcription of the genes that are found to be differentially expressed.From these results it can be concluded that the epigenome can be shaped by selection to increase yield and stress tolerance. This acquired knowledge will support further development of strategies to incorporate epigenetics in breeding. To investigate the epigenetic effect on histone mark distribution of the EUE/PEG selection we performed ChIP-seq analyses. Native ChIP using an anti-H3K4me3 and no antibody (background control) was done on PEG1 and control plants.

Project description:In this study we have combined nuclei enrichment with quantitative proteomics to study tomato nuclear proteome dynamics during early infection with the devastating broad host-range oomycete pathogen Phytophthora capsici. Using this method we have identified hundreds of host nuclear proteins that show specific changes in abundance during P. capsici infection including proteins implicated in nucleic acid binding, oxidoreductase activity, helicase activity, RNA binding and transcription regulator activity. A number of these proteins have known links to plant immunity or defence signalling. We have confirmed the nuclear localisation of a selection of proteins which show P. capsici infection dependant changes in abundance and have examined the impact of their expression on resistance. As direct proof of biological relevance we demonstrate that in planta overexpression of an AT-hook family protein which decreased in abundance during infection, causes enhanced resistance to P. capsici. We conclude that organelle enrichment combined with quantitative proteomics represents a valuable strategy, suited to interrogate dynamic proteomes during stress, and allows the identification of promising targets to bolster immunity in crops.
