FACT activity and histone H3-K56 acetylation promote optimal establishment of chromatin architecture independent of ongoing transcription in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [MNase-Seq]

Project description:FACT is a histone chaperone that can destabilize or assemble nucleosomes. Acetylation of histone H3-K56 weakens a histone:DNA contact that is central to FACT activity, suggesting that this modification could affect FACT functions. We tested this by asking how mutations of H3-K56 and FACT affect nucleosome structure, chromatin integrity, and transcription output. Mimics of unacetylated or permanently acetylated H3-K56 had different effects on FACT in vitro and in vivo as expected, but H3-K56 and FACT mutations caused surprisingly similar changes in transcription of individual genes. Notably, neither the changes in transcript levels nor the effects on nucleosome occupancy resulting from mutations conformed to the model that FACT is needed to overcome nucleosomal barriers during transcription initiation or elongation. Instead, the results suggest that both FACT and H3-K56ac are involved in establishing chromatin architecture prior to transcription and restoring it afterwards. They contribute to a process that optimizes transcription frequency, especially at conditionally expressed genes, and restores chromatin integrity after transcription, especially at the +1 nucleosome to block antisense transcription, but FACT appears to be less involved than expected in directly promoting transcription.

Establishment and Maintenance of Chromatin Architecture Are Promoted Independently of Transcription by the Histone Chaperone FACT and H3-K56 Acetylation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:FACT (FAcilitates Chromatin Transcription/Transactions) is a histone chaperone that can destabilize or assemble nucleosomes. Acetylation of histone H3-K56 weakens a histone-DNA contact that is central to FACT activity, suggesting that this modification could affect FACT functions. We tested this by asking how mutations of H3-K56 and FACT affect nucleosome reorganization activity in vitro, and chromatin integrity and transcript output in vivo Mimics of unacetylated or permanently acetylated H3-K56 had different effects on FACT activity as expected, but the same mutations had surprisingly similar effects on global transcript levels. The results are consistent with emerging models that emphasize FACT's importance in establishing global chromatin architecture prior to transcription, promoting transitions among different states as transcription profiles change, and restoring chromatin integrity after it is disturbed. Optimal FACT activity required the availability of both modified and unmodified states of H3-K56. Perturbing this balance was especially detrimental for maintaining repression of genes with high nucleosome occupancy over their promoters and for blocking antisense transcription at the +1 nucleosome. The results reveal a complex collaboration between H3-K56 modification status and multiple FACT functions, and support roles for nucleosome reorganization by FACT before, during, and after transcription.

Histone H3-K56 acetylation is catalyzed by histone chaperone-dependent complexes.

Project description:Acetylation of histone H3 on lysine 56 occurs during mitotic and meiotic S phase in fungal species. This acetylation blocks a direct electrostatic interaction between histone H3 and nucleosomal DNA, and the absence of this modification is associated with extreme sensitivity to genotoxic agents. We show here that H3-K56 acetylation is catalyzed when Rtt109, a protein that lacks significant homology to known acetyltransferases, forms an active complex with either of two histone binding proteins, Asf1 or Vps75. Rtt109 binds to both these cofactors, but not to histones alone, forming enzyme complexes with kinetic parameters similar to those of known histone acetyltransferase (HAT) enzymes. Therefore, H3-K56 acetylation is catalyzed by a previously unknown mechanism that requires a complex of two proteins: Rtt109 and a histone chaperone. Additionally, these complexes are functionally distinct, with the Rtt109/Asf1 complex, but not the Rtt109/Vps75 complex, being critical for resistance to genotoxic agents.

Histone H3-K56 acetylation is important for genomic stability in mammals.

Project description:Histone H3 lysine 56 acetylation (H3K56Ac) has recently been identified and shown to be important for genomic stability in yeast. However, whether or not H3K56 acetylation occurs in mammals is not clear. Here, we report that H3K56Ac exists in mammals. Mammalian H3K56Ac requires the histone chaperone Asf1 and occurs mainly at the S phase in unstressed cells. Moreover, SIRT1, which is a mammalian member of sirtuin family of NAD(+)-dependent deacetylases, regulates the deacetylation of H3K56. We further showed that proper H3K56 acetylation is critical for genomic stability and DNA damage response. These results establish the existence and functional significance of H3K56Ac in mammals and identify two regulators of this modification.

Histone H3K4 demethylation is negatively regulated by histone H3 acetylation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:Histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) is a hallmark of transcription initiation, but how H3K4me3 is demethylated during gene repression is poorly understood. Jhd2, a JmjC domain protein, was recently identified as the major H3K4me3 histone demethylase (HDM) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although JHD2 is required for removal of methylation upon gene repression, deletion of JHD2 does not result in increased levels of H3K4me3 in bulk histones, indicating that this HDM is unable to demethylate histones during steady-state conditions. In this study, we showed that this was due to the negative regulation of Jhd2 activity by histone H3 lysine 14 acetylation (H3K14ac), which colocalizes with H3K4me3 across the yeast genome. We demonstrated that loss of the histone H3-specific acetyltransferases (HATs) resulted in genome-wide depletion of H3K4me3, and this was not due to a transcription defect. Moreover, H3K4me3 levels were reestablished in HAT mutants following loss of JHD2, which suggested that H3-specific HATs and Jhd2 serve opposing functions in regulating H3K4me3 levels. We revealed the molecular basis for this suppression by demonstrating that H3K14ac negatively regulated Jhd2 demethylase activity on an acetylated peptide in vitro. These results revealed the existence of a general mechanism for removal of H3K4me3 following gene repression.

Two factor authentication: Asf1 mediates crosstalk between H3 K14 and K56 acetylation.

Project description:The ability of histone chaperone Anti-silencing factor 1 (Asf1) to direct acetylation of lysine 56 of histone H3 (H3K56ac) represents an important regulatory step in genome replication and DNA repair. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Asf1 interacts functionally with a second chaperone, Vps75, and the lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) Rtt109. Both Asf1 and Vps75 can increase the specificity of histone acetylation by Rtt109, but neither alter selectivity. However, changes in acetylation selectivity have been observed in histones extracted from cells, which contain a plethora of post-translational modifications. In the present study, we use a series of singly acetylated histones to test the hypothesis that histone pre-acetylation and histone chaperones function together to drive preferential acetylation of H3K56. We show that pre-acetylated H3K14ac/H4 functions with Asf1 to drive specific acetylation of H3K56 by Rtt109-Vps75. Additionally, we identified an exosite containing an acidic patch in Asf1 and show that mutations to this region alter Asf1-mediated crosstalk that changes Rtt109-Vps75 selectivity. Our proposed mechanism suggests that Gcn5 acetylates H3K14, recruiting remodeler complexes, allowing for the Asf1-H3K14ac/H4 complex to be acetylated at H3K56 by Rtt109-Vps75. This mechanism explains the conflicting biochemical data and the genetic links between Rtt109, Vps75, Gcn5 and Asf1 in the acetylation of H3K56.
