LncRNA SNHG8d impedes chromatin condensation and epithelial differentiation by phase separating histone H1 [ATAC-seq]


ABSTRACT: Linker histone H1, the key chromatin structural protein facilitating higher order chromatin folding, is an important epigenetic mark and regulator for gene expression and cellular differentiation. However, mechanisms thatregulate H1 binding affinity to chromatin remain elusive. In an attempt to screen functionallong non-coding RNAs(lncRNAs), we designed a cell-type specific score (CTSS) algorithm on the basis of RNA-seq data derived fromcell lines of different origins, which leads to the identification of an epithelium-specific lncRNA designated assmall nucleolar RNA host gene 8 (SNHG8). In epithelial cells, loss of SNHG8d, a major transcriptof SNHG8, remodels the genomic expression profiletowards differentiation. Mechanistically, SNHG8d is localized in the nucleus and manifests stronginteraction withallthe histone H1 variants detected.Loss of SNHG8dleads to increasedH1 binding affinity to chromatinand subsequentchromatin condensationwhichdictates the epithelial differentiation-orientedgenomic expression remodeling.Further analysis proposes that SNHG8d regulates H1-chromatin affinityby competing with linker DNA forhistone H1 binding througha phase-separation mechanism. Thus, our study revealed a lncRNA-conducted mechanismthat sequesters histone H1 from chromatin through phase separation to sequentially regulatechromatin structure, gene expressionandepithelialdifferentiation.
