PARP-1 regulates chromatin structure and transcription through a KDM5B-dependent pathway.

ABSTRACT: PARP-1 is an abundant nuclear enzyme that regulates gene expression, although the underlying mechanisms are unclear. We examined the interplay between PARP-1, histone 3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3), and linker histone H1 in the chromatin-dependent control of transcription. We show that PARP-1 is required for a series of molecular outcomes at the promoters of PARP-1-regulated genes, leading to a permissive chromatin environment that allows loading of the RNA Pol II machinery. PARP-1 does so by (1) preventing demethylation of H3K4me3 through the PARylation, inhibition, and exclusion of the histone demethylase KDM5B; and (2) promoting the exclusion of H1 and the opening of promoter chromatin. Upon depletion of PARP-1, these outcomes do not occur efficiently. Interestingly, cellular signaling pathways can use the regulated depletion of PARP-1 to modulate these chromatin-related molecular outcomes. Collectively, our results help to elucidate the roles of PARP-1 in the regulation of chromatin structure and transcription.

Project description:Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum Gaertn.) is a coarse cereal with strongly abiotic resistance. The MYB family plays a regulatory role in plant growth, development, and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the characteristics and regulatory mechanisms of MYB transcription factors in Tartary buckwheat remain unclarified. Here, this study cloned the FtMYB22 gene from Tartary buckwheat, and investigated its involvement in responding to individual water deficit and salt stress in Arabidopsis. Sequence analysis highlighted that the N-termini of FtMYB22 contained two highly conserved SANT domains and one conserved domain from the SG20 subfamily. Nucleus-localized FtMYB22 did not have individual transcriptional activation activity. Water deficiency and salt stress induced the high expression of the GUS gene, which was driven by the promoter of FtMYB22. Yeast stress experiments showed that the overexpression of FtMYB22 significantly reduced the growth activity of transgenic yeast under water deficit or salt stress. Consistently, the overexpression of FtMYB22 reduced the salt and water deficit stress resistance of the transgenic plants. In addition, physiological parameters showed that transgenic plants had lower proline and antioxidant enzyme activity under stress conditions. Compared to the wild-type (WT), transgenic plants accumulated more malondialdehyde (MDA), H2O2, and O2−; they also showed higher ion permeability and water loss rates of detached leaves under stress treatments. Notably, FtMYB22 was involved in plant stress resistance through an ABA-dependent pathway. Under stress conditions, the expression of RD29A, RD29B, PP2CA, KIN1, COR15A, and other genes in response to plant stress in transgenic lines was significantly lower than that in the WT (p < 0.05). Furthermore, yeast two-hybrid assay showed that there was a significant interaction between FtMYB22 and the ABA receptor protein RCAR1/2, which functioned in the ABA signal pathway. Altogether, FtMYB22, as a negative regulator, inhibited a variety of physiological and biochemical reactions, affected gene expression and stomatal closure in transgenic plants through the ABA-dependent pathway, and reduced the tolerance of transgenic Arabidopsis to water deficiency and salt stress. Based on these fundamental verifications, further studies would shed light on the hormone signal response mechanism of FtMYB22.
