PRC2-mediated epigenetic signatures associate with pathogn-induced programmed cell death in Arabidopsis

ABSTRACT: The Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is well-known for its role in controlling developmental transitions by suppressing the premature expression of key developmental regulators. Previous work revealed that PRC2 also controls the onset of senescence, a form of developmental programmed cell death (PCD) in plants. Whether the induction of PCD in response to stress is similarly suppressed by the PRC2 remained largely unknown. In this study, we explored whether PCD triggered in response to immunity- and disease-promoting pathogen effectors is associated with changes in the distribution of the PRC2-mediated H3K27me3 histone modification in Arabidopsis thaliana. We furthermore tested the distribution of the heterochromatic histone mark H3K9me2, which is established, to a large extent, by the H3K9 methyltransferase KRYPTONITE, and occupies chromatin regions generally not targeted by PRC2. We report that effector-induced PCD caused major changes in the distribution of both repressive epigenetic modifications and that both modifications have a regulatory role and impact on the onset of PCD during pathogen infection. Our work highlights that the transition to pathogen-induced PCD is epigenetically controlled, revealing striking similarities to developmental PCD.

Expression data from Ezh2-null erythrocyte/megakaryocyte progenitor (MEP)

Project description:The polycomb group (PcG) proteins function in gene silencing through histone modifications. They form chromatin-associated multiprotein complexes, termed polycomb repressive complex (PRC) 1 and PRC2. These two complexes work in a coordinated manner in the maintenance of cellular memories through transcriptional repression of target genes. EZH2 is a catalytic component of PRC2 and trimethylates histone H3 at lysine 27 to transcriptionally repress the target genes. PcG proteins have been characterized as general regulators of stem cells, but recent works also unveiled their critical roles in cancer.

A TALE homeodomain transcription factors-binding protein recruits Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 to a subset of loci in rice shoot apical meristem [ChIP-seq]

Project description:In this work, we investigated the function of PAP1 (LOC_Os03g01840) in gene expression, H3K27 tri-methylation, and Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) binding by high-throughput approaches. The PAP1 loss-of-function results in defects of meristem development and gene expression similar to those of PRC2 and/or KNOX gene mutants and decreases of H3K27me3 and PRC2 binding at KNOX-binding genes in the meristem. PAP1-meidated PRC2 recruitment may contribute to H3K27me3 shifting from heterochromatin silencing to developmental gene repression during land plant evolution.

Mapping polycomb complexes in human and mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:In embryonic stem (ES) cells, bivalent chromatin domains with overlapping repressive (H3 lysine 27 tri-methylation) and activating (H3 lysine 4 tri-methylation) histone modifications mark the promoters of more than 2000 genes. To gain insight into the structure and function of bivalent domains, we mapped key histone modifications and subunits of Polycomb repressive complexes 1 and 2 (PRC1 and PRC2) genomewide in human and mouse ES cells by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by ultra high-throughput sequencing. We find that bivalent domains can be segregated into two classes: the first occupied by both PRC2 and PRC1 (PRC1-positive) and the second specifically bound by PRC2 (PRC2-only). PRC1-positive bivalent domains appear functionally distinct as they more efficiently retain lysine 27 tri-methylation upon differentiation, show stringent conservation of chromatin state, and associate with an overwhelming number of developmental regulator gene promoters. We also used computational genomics to search for sequence determinants of Polycomb binding. This analysis revealed that the genomewide locations of PRC2 and PRC1 can be largely predicted from the locations, sizes and underlying motif contents of CpG islands. We propose that large CpG islands depleted of activating motifs confer epigenetic memory by recruiting the full repertoire of Polycomb complexes.

Determine the chromatin association change of H3K27me3 and PRC2 in response to CTR9 inducible loss as well as genome-wide mapping of Flag-CTR9 binding sites in MCF7 cells

Project description:CTR9 is the scaffold subunit in PAFc (Polymerase associated factor complex), a multifunctional complex employed in multiple steps of RNA Pol II-mediated transcription. CTR9/PAFc is well known as an evolutionarily conserved elongation factor regulating gene activation via coupling with histone modifications enzymes. However, little is known about its function to restrain repressive histone markers. Using inducible and stable CTR9 knockdown breast cancer cell lines, we discovered that the amount of H3K27me3 is strictly controlled by CTR9. Quantitative profiling on histone modifications revealed a striking increase of H3K27me3 level upon loss of CTR9. Moreover, loss of CTR9 leads to genome-wide expansion of H3K27me3, as well as increased recruitment of PRC2 on chromatin, which can be reversed by CTR9 restoration. Moreover, CTR9 depletion triggers a PRC2 subtype switch from less active PRC2.2 to PRC2.1 with higher methyltransferase activity. As a consequence, CTR9 depletion generates vulnerability that renders breast cancer cells hypersensitive to PRC2 inhibitors. Our findings that CTR9 demarcates PRC2-mediated H3K27me3 levels and genomic distribution provide a unique mechanism of transition from transcriptionally active to repressive chromatin states and shed light on the biological functions of CTR9 in development and cancer.
