Deposition of centromeric histone H3 variant CENP-A/Cse4 into chromatin is facilitated by its C-terminal sumoylation


ABSTRACT: Centromeric localization of CENP-A (Cse4 in S. cerevisiae, CID in flies, CENP-A in humans) is essential for faithful chromosome segregation. Overexpression of CENP-A leads to its mislocalization and contributes to aneuploidy in yeast, flies, humans and is proposed to promote tumorigenesis in human cancers. Hence, defining molecular mechanisms that promote or prevent mislocalization of CENP-A is an area of active investigation. In budding yeast, evolutionarily conserved histone chaperones Scm3 and chromatin assembly factor-1 (CAF-1) promote localization of Cse4 to centromeric and non-centromeric regions, respectively. Ubiquitin ligases such as Psh1 and Slx5 and histone chaperones (HIR complex) regulate proteolysis of overexpressed Cse4 and prevent its mislocalization to non-centromeric regions. In this study, we have identified sumoylation sites lysine (K) 215/216 in the C-terminus of Cse4 and shown that sumoylation of Cse4 K215/216 facilitates its genome-wide deposition into chromatin when overexpressed. Our results showed reduced levels of sumoylation of mutant Cse4 K215/216R/A (K changed to arginine (R) or alanine (A)) and reduced interaction of mutant Cse4 K215/215R/A with Scm3 and CAF-1 when compared to wild type Cse4. Consistent with these results, levels of Cse4 K215/216R/A in the chromatin fraction at centromeric and non-centromeric regions were reduced. Furthermore, in contrast to GAL-CSE4 which exhibits Synthetic Dosage Lethality (SDL) in psh1Æ, slx5Æ, and hir2Æ strains, GAL-cse4 K215/216R does not exhibit SDL in these strains. Taken together, our results identify and define a role for C-terminal sumoylation of Cse4 for its incorporation into chromatin.
