Project description:Arabidopsis telomeric repeat binding factors (TRBs) can bind telomeric DNA sequences to protect telomeres from degradation. TRBs can also recruit Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) to deposit tri-methylation of H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) over certain target loci. Here, we demonstrate that TRBs also associate and colocalize with JUMONJI14 (JMJ14) and trigger H3K4me3 demethylation at some loci. The trb1/2/3 triple mutant and the jmj14-1 mutant show an increased level of H3K4me3 over TRB and JMJ14 binding sites, resulting in up-regulation of their target genes. Furthermore, tethering TRBs to the promoter region of genes with an artificial zinc finger (TRB-ZF) successfully triggers target gene silencing, as well as H3K27me3 deposition, and H3K4me3 removal. Interestingly, JMJ14 is predominantly recruited to ZF off-target sites with low levels of H3K4me3, which is accompanied with TRB-ZFs triggered H3K4me3 removal at these loci. These results suggest that TRB proteins coordinate PRC2 and JMJ14 activities to repress target genes via H3K27me3 deposition and H3K4me3 removal.

Project description:The genes whose transcription was significantly altered by metformin were investigated in H1299 cells by RNA-seq. Significantly up- or down-regulated genes were identified by cutoff value of |FC| >= 1.5. Metformin significantly downregulated mRNA levels of 499 genes while upregulating 615. KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) gene enrichment analysis revealed that the highly ranked clusters were cell cycle, apoptosis, cellular senescence and p53 signaling pathways. Multiple cell cycle checkpoint genes such as CCNA, CCNB, CCNE, CDK1, E2F2, E2F6, and E2F8 were downregulated, while certain cell cycle inhibitors such as CDKN2B (p15), CDKN1A (p21), DDIT4, and GADD45 were upregulated.

Project description:To examine the relationship of reduced CG methylation and gene expression in Lsh KO MEFs, we computed mean CG methylation levels at promoter regions of protein-coding genes. About 60% of TSS regions of protein-coding genes display a difference of CG methylation values greater than 0.3 (WT CG methylation minus KO CG methylation) indicating that Lsh deletion has widespread effects at promoter regions. RNA-seq analysis detects similar transcript steady state levels in WT and KO samples. To determine the relationship of Pol II binding and CG methylation reduction in KO MEFs, Pol II Chip-seq was performed. Protein coding genes were ranked according their CG methylation differences between WT MEFs and KO MEFs. The greatest loss of CG methylation is found at promoter with low CG density. Pol II association is inversely related to the number of CpG sites within promoter regions. KO MEFs show less Pol II association at CG rich promoter regions. However, RNA-seq reads are indistinguishable comparing WT and KO samples, suggesting similar transcriptional efficiency in the absence of Lsh. To explore other molecular mechanisms that may preserve low transcription activity or repression at CG hypomethylated promoter regions, we examined H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 modifications by ChIP-seq. Genome wide computation of histone modifications at 5kb tiles shows no increase of H3K27me3 level in KO MEFs. When we ranked 5kb tiles based on CG methylation differences between WT and KO, we observed alterations in H3K27me3 distribution, while H3K4me3 modifications are unremarkable. Regions with moderate CG methylation reduction exhibit concomitant decreases in H3K27me3. mRNA profiles and Genome-wide maps of H3K27me3, H3K4me3 and Pol II in wildtype (WT) and Lsh KO primary MEFs.

Project description:The ability of cells to perceive and translate versatile cues into differential chromatin and transcriptional states is critical for many biological processes1-4. In plants, timely transition to a flowering state is crucial for successful reproduction5-7. EARLY BOLTING IN SHORT DAY (EBS) is a negative transcriptional regulator that prevents premature flowering in Arabidopsis8,9. Here, we revealed that bivalent bromo-adjacent homology (BAH)-plant homeodomain (PHD) reader modules of EBS bind H3K27me3 and H3K4me3, respectively. A subset of EBS-associated genes was co-enriched with H3K4me3, H3K27me3, and the Polycomb repressor complex 2 (PRC2). Interestingly, EBS adopts an auto-inhibition mode to mediate its binding preference switch between H3K27me3 and H3K4me3. This binding balance is critical because disruption of either EBS-H3K27me3 or EBS-H3K4me3 interaction induces EBS-mediated early floral transition. This study identifies a single bivalent chromatin reader capable of recognizing two antagonistic histone marks and reveals a distinct mechanism of interplay between active and repressive chromatin states.The ability of cells to perceive and translate versatile cues into differential chromatin and transcriptional states is critical for many biological processes1-4.

Project description:During early postnatal life, extensive changes in gene expression occur concomitantly in multiple major organs, indicating the existence of a common core developmental genetic program. This program includes hundreds of growth-promoting genes that are downregulated with age in liver, kidney, lung, and heart, and there is evidence that this component of the program drives the widespread decline in cell proliferation that occurs in juvenile life, as organs approach adult sizes. To investigate epigenetic changes that might orchestrate this program, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation-promoter tiling array to assess temporal changes in histone H3K4 and H3K27 trimethylation (me3) at promoter regions throughout the genome in kidney and lung, comparing 1- to 4-wk-old mice. We found extensive genome-wide shifts in H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 occurring with age in both kidney and lung. The number of genes with concordant changes in the two organs was far greater than expected by chance. Temporal changes in H3K4me3 showed a strong, positive association with changes in gene expression, assessed by microarray, whereas changes in H3K27me3 showed a negative association. Gene ontology analysis indicated that shifts in specific histone methylation marks were associated with specific developmental functions. Of particular interest, genes with decreases in H3K4me3 with age in both organs were strongly implicated in cell cycle and cell proliferation functions. Taken together, the findings suggest that the common core developmental program of gene expression which occurs in multiple organs during juvenile life is associated with a common core developmental program of histone methylation. In particular, declining H3K4me3 is strongly associated with gene downregulation and occurs in the promoter regions of many growth-regulating genes, suggesting that this change in histone methylation may contribute to the component of the genetic program that drives juvenile body growth deceleration. Tissues samples were collect from Lung (1 and 4 week old) and Kindey (1 and 4 week old) respectively with four biological replications of mice that were collected, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at -70 °C

Project description:Histone marks H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 are mutual exclusive over plant genome, however, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Arabidopsis telomeric repeat binding factors (TRBs) are required for the deposition of H3K27me3 by recruiting Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs). Here, we demonstrate that TRBs associate and colocalize with JUMONJI 14 (JMJ14) over gene body regions and trigger H3K4me3 demethylation. The trb1/2/3 triple mutant and jmj14-1 mutant show an increased level of H3K4me3 over TRB and JMJ14 binding sites, resulting in up-regulation of their targeting genes. Furthermore, tethering TRBs to the promoter region of genes with an artificial zinc finger successfully triggers target gene silencing. These results suggest that TRB proteins cooperate with PRC2 and JMJ14 complex to repress target gene by H3K4me3 demethylation and H3K27me3 deposition.

Project description:The role of Polycomb group (PcG) was studied on RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) pausing phenomenon. Wild type and Polycomb mutant (esc) embryos were used for ChIP-Seq experiments using Pol II and histone methylation antibodies. Enhanced Pol II occupancy was observed for thousands of genes in esc mutant embryos, including genes not known to be bound by PRC2 or having H3K27me3 associated. Most of these genes exhibit a concomitant reduction in H3K27me3 and increase in H3K4me3 at promoter-proximal regions. Silent genes lacking promoter-associated paused Pol II in wild-type embryos are converted into âpoisedâ genes with paused Pol II in esc mutants. We suggest that this conversion of silent genes into poised genes might render differentiated cell types susceptible to switches in identity in PcG mutants. ChIP-Seq data was generated for antibodies against Pol-II, H3K4me3, H3K27me3 in both wild type and esc mutant Drosophila embryos (0-2hr, 8-12hr, and 18-24hr embryos). In addition GRO-Seq data was generated for 18-24hr esc mutant embryos.

Project description:Poor outcome of AML patients is closely related with therapy failure or relapse after initial response. The underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study we discovered the histone methyltransferase EZH2 as a novel marker for response to chemotherapy and patients` survival. Protein levels of EZH2 and subsequently H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) are reduced in chemoresistant AML cells. To analyze which genomic regions were affected by the loss of EZH2 and reduced H3K27me3 mark we performed Chromatin Immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-Seq). ChIP-Seq for the H3K27me3 repressive mark revealed genome-wide differences between sensitive (MV4-11) and resistant (MV4-11R) cells. Overall, 4699 genomic regions showed a more than 1.5 fold reduction of H3K27me3 around TSS ±5kb in MV4-11R compared to MV4-11cells. Promoter regions of HOX genes, classical targets of PRC2, revealed drastically reduced H3K27me3 enrichment in the MV4-11R cells. The H3K27me3 level at the transcriptional start site (TSS) of the ABCC1 promoter was decreased in resistant compared to sensitive cells (Fig. 6D) with increased levels of H3K4me3 and H3K27ac. As expected, we found H3K27me3 enrichments to be inversely correlated with gene expression whereas histone modifications H3K4me3 and H3K27ac, known as markers for active genes, positively correlated with gene expression in our analysis. Differentially regulated genes were characterized to be involved in protein modification/phosphorylation pathways and signaling and apoptosis.
