Reversible 5-formyluracil DNA-histone crosslinks: formation and biological effects

ABSTRACT: 5-Formyluracil (5fU) is a vital DNA modification that widely presents in cells and organisms. A unique feature of 5fU is the presence of a potentially reactive aldehyde group in its structure, which can realize addition and condensation reactions. However, the biological function details of 5fU are still largely elusive; especially the relationship with protein is still unclear. Herein, we have first showed that 5fU bases have strong affinity with proteins and can yield reversible DNA-protein conjugates with nuclear proteins even under certain spatial space. Besides, 5fU can influence physical properties of nucleosome even chromatin by increasing nucleosome occupancy and stability. What’s more, we firstly confirmed the existence of 5fU-histone crosslinking in thyroid carcinoma tissue by the CHIP of histone H4 combined with LC-MS. These results suggesting the DNA−protein crosslinks (DPC) formation between 5fU and nucleosome core particles may play a potential role in vivo, such as influencing DNA transactions, altering chromatin structure, and stabilizing the nucleosome. In addition, the Schiff base resulted by 5fU may provide us a new direction for capture even quantification of this modification nucleobase based on this condensation reaction with proteins for further epigenetic studies.

DNA- and RNA-seq to study the impact of 5-formylcytosine on nucleosome organization and gene expression in embryonic mouse tissues and stem cells

Project description:We investigated the impact of 5-formylcytosine on nucleosome organization in vitro and in vivo. Our data demonstrated that 5-formylcytosine (5fC) can determine nucleosome positioning in mouse embryonic tissues that was linked to gene expression in mouse embryonic tissues. Redistribution of nucleosomes associated to changes in 5fC sites in thymine DNA glycosylase knockout (TDG KO) was linked to gene expression changes. In mESC TDG KO we showed that genes containing potential Schiff base interaction between histone 3 and 5fC impacted the transcription activity of the RNA polymerase II.

A SUMO-mediated protective response to DNA-protein crosslinks

Project description:DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) are highly cytotoxic lesions that obstruct essential DNA transactions and whose resolution is critical for cell and organismal fitness. However, unlike the repair pathways for most types of DNA damage, the mechanisms by which cells respond to and overcome DPCs remain poorly understood. Recent studies unveiled a dedicated DPC repair pathway in higher eukaryotes involving the SprT-type metalloprotease SPRTN/DVC1, which proteolytically processes DPCs during DNA replication in a ubiquitin-controlled manner. Here, we show that aldehyde-generated DPCs elicit a potent and highly dynamic, cell cycle-independent SUMOylation response impacting numerous chromatin-associated human proteins. We identify an uncharacterized SprT metalloprotease, ACRC, which unlike SPRTN is targeted to DPCs in a SUMO-dependent manner. Moreover, we establish important physiological roles of the C. elegans ACRC orthologue GCNA-1 and SUMO-mediated signaling in promoting organismal survival upon DPC formation. Finally, we demonstrate that like aldehydes, defined enzymatic DNMT1 DPCs trigger a robust SUMO response targeting the crosslinked proteins and associated factors to promote efficient lesion processing and cellular fitness. Collectively, our findings reveal an evolutionarily conserved general role of SUMO-mediated signaling in facilitating responses to DPCs in metazoans.

Phase separation properties of RPA combine high-affinity ssDNA binding with dynamic condensate functions at telomeres

Project description:RPA has been shown to protect single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) intermediates from instability and breakage. RPA binds ssDNA with sub-nanomolar affinity, yet dynamic turnover is required for downstream ssDNA transactions. How ultrahigh-affinity binding and dynamic turnover are achieved simultaneously is not well understood. Here we reveal that RPA has a strong propensity to assemble into dynamic condensates. In solution, purified RPA phase separates into liquid droplets with fusion and surface wetting behavior. Phase separation is stimulated by sub-stoichiometric amounts of ssDNA, but not RNA or double-stranded DNA, and ssDNA gets selectively enriched in RPA condensates. We find the RPA2 subunit required for condensation and multi-site phosphorylation of the RPA2 N-terminal intrinsically disordered region to regulate RPA self-interaction. Functionally, quantitative proximity proteomics links RPA condensation to telomere clustering and integrity in cancer cells. Collectively, our results suggest that RPA-coated ssDNA is contained in dynamic RPA condensates whose properties are important for genome organization and stability.

Identification and analysis of phosphorylation within Xenopus laevis linker histone H1.0

Project description:As a key structural component of the chromatin of higher eukaryotes, linker histones (H1s) are involved in stabilizing the folding of extended nucleosome arrays into higher-order chromatin structures and function as a gene-specific regulators of transcription in vivo. The H1 C-terminal domain (CTD) is essential for high affinity binding of linker histones to chromatin and stabilization of higher-order chromatin structure. Importantly, the H1 CTD is an intrinsically disordered domain that undergoes a drastic condensation upon binding to nucleosomes. Moroever, although phosphorylation is a prevalent posttranslational modification (PTM) within the H1 CTD, exactly where this modification is installed and how phosphorylation influences the structure of the H1 CTD remains unclear for many H1s. Using novel mass spectrometry techniques, we identified six phosphorylation sites within the CTD of the archetypal linker histone Xenopus H1.0. We then analyzed nucleosome-dependent CTD condensation and H1-dependent linker DNA conformation for six full-length H1s in which the phosphorylated serine residues were replaced by glutamic acid residues.

MNase-Seq of isolated mono-nucleosomes from strains W303 (wild-type) and htz1∆.

Project description:Chromatin transactions are typically studied in vivo, or in vitro using artificial chromatin lacking the epigenetic complexity of the natural material. Attempting to bridge the gap between these approaches, we established a system for isolating the yeast genome as a library of mono-nucleosomes harbouring the natural epigenetic signature, suitable for biochemical manipulation. Combined with deep sequencing, this library was used to investigate the stability of individual nucleosomes, and – as proof of principle - the nucleosome preference of the chromatin remodeling complex, RSC. In order to generate a library of native yeast nucleosomes, we developed a three-step purification protocol: first, purified yeast nuclei were incubated with micrococcal nuclease (MNase), which preferentially digests naked DNA to generate short chromatin fragments. The resulting fragments were extracted from the nuclei, then bound to and eluted from DEAE sepharose. This was followed by ultracentrifugation through a sucrose gradient to separate the fragments by length to further remove contaminating proteins and free DNA. We chose a simple disassembly assay, which involves incubating the nucleosome library with ATP and the histone chaperone Nap1, with or without RSC. In this assay, RSC binds to nucleosomes and transfers the histones to Nap1, thereby releasing ‘naked’ DNA. Under certain conditions, reaction intermediates can be observed (tetramers or hexasomes), but for simplicity we chose to compare the input nucleosomes with the final naked DNA product. To separate the RSC-dependent released DNA from the non-remodeled nucleosomes, the reactions were subjected to native agarose gel electrophoresis, and DNA of the four bands isolated by gel-extraction. The upper bands, harboring nucleosomes, were named NUC (no RSC) and NUCR (with RSC), whereas the lower, ‘naked’ DNA bands were named DNA (no RSC) and DNAR (with RSC).

Nucleosome binding by the pioneer transcription factor OCT4

Project description:The nucleosome is a fundamental unit of chromatin in eukaryotes, and generally prevents the binding of transcription factors to genomic DNA. Pioneer transcription factors overcome the nucleosome barrier, and bind their target DNA sequences in chromatin. OCT4 is a representative pioneer transcription factor that plays a role in stem cell pluripotency. In the present study, we biochemically analyzed the nucleosome binding by OCT4. Crosslinking mass spectrometry showed that OCT4 binds the nucleosome.

In vivo Analysis Reveals that ATP-hydrolysis Couples Remodeling to SWI/SNF Release from Chromatin.

Project description:ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers control the accessibility of genomic DNA through nucleosome mobilization. However, the dynamics of genome exploration by remodelers, and the role of ATP hydrolysis in this process remain unclear. We used live-cell imaging of Drosophila polytene nuclei to monitor Brahma (BRM) remodeler interactions with its chromosomal targets. In parallel, we measured local chromatin condensation and its effect on BRM association. Surprisingly, only a small portion of BRM is bound to chromatin at any given time. BRM binds decondensed chromatin but is excluded from condensed chromatin, limiting its genomic search space. BRM-chromatin interactions are highly dynamic, whereas histone-exchange is limited and much slower. Intriguingly, loss of ATP hydrolysis enhanced chromatin retention and clustering of BRM, which was associated with reduced histone turnover. Thus, ATP hydrolysis couples nucleosome remodeling to remodeler release, driving a continuous transient probing of the genome.

(2-Benzimidazolyl)acetonitrile derivative for the highly selective la-beling 5-formyluracil and its application in genome-wide mapping in tissues

Project description:Natural chemical modifications to 5-formyluracil (5fU) has been identified as an important oxidative nucleobase modification, is present in the genomes of many cell types. However, its distribution in genome is poorly understood. Herein, we present a selec-tive labeling and pull-down strategy termed fU-Seq for genome-wide 5fU profiling in mouse hippocampus and human thyroid carcinoma tissues. The mainly essence is using an azido modified (2-benzimidazolyl)acetonitrile derivative that selectively labels 5fU. Surprisingly, 5fU is highly enriched at intergenic and intron, and 5fU-rich regions are positively correlated with H3K27me3 and negatively correlated with H3K27ac, indicating that 5fU is associated with transcription. Collectively, the sequencing of 5fU allow comprehensive analysis of 5fU in genome and provide effective technology for mapping and paves the way for addressing biological and chemical questions regarding this nucleobase modification and for revealing its potential roles in epigenetics.
