Specificity, propagation and memory of pericentric heterochromatin in mouse fibroblasts


ABSTRACT: We assembled a quantitative map for the abundance and interactions of 16 factors related to PCH in living cells and found that stably bound complexes of the histone methyltransferase Suv39h1/2 demarcate the PCH state. From the experimental data we developed a predictive mathematical model that explains how chromatin-bound Suv39h1/2 complexes act as nucleation sites and propagate a spatially confined PCH domain with elevated histone H3 trimethylation levels via chromatin dynamics. Enrichment of HP1, Suv39h1/h2, H3K9me3 and H3K36me3 was assessed by ChIP-seq in NPCs derived from ESCs showing differential occupation at intergenic major satellite repeats and enrichment of heterochromatin factors.

The cell establishes heritable patterns of active and silenced chromatin via interacting factors that set, remove, and read epigenetic marks. To understand how the underlying networks operate, we have dissected transcriptional silencing in pericentric heterochromatin (PCH) of mouse fibroblasts. We assembled a quantitative map for the abundance and interactions of 16 factors related to PCH in living cells and found that stably bound complexes of the histone methyltransferase SUV39H1/2 demarcate t  ...[more]
