Non-redundant functions of H2A.Z.1 and H2A.Z.2 in chromosome segregation and cell cycle progression

ABSTRACT: H2A.Z is a H2A-type histone variant essential for many aspects of cell biology, ranging from gene expression to genome stability. From deuterostomes, H2A.Z evolved into two paralogues, H2A.Z.1 and H2A.Z.2, that differ by only three amino acids and are encoded by different genes (H2AFZ and H2AFV, respectively). Despite the importance of this histone variant in development and cellular homeostasis, very little is known about the individual functions of each paralogue in mammals. Here, we have investigated the distinct roles of the two paralogues in cell cycle regulation and unveiled non-redundant functions for H2A.Z.1 and H2A.Z.2 in cell division. Our findings show that H2A.Z.1 regulates the expression of cell cycle genes such as Myc and Ki-67 and its depletion leads to a G1 arrest and cellular senescence. On the contrary, H2A.Z.2, in a transcription independent manner, is essential for centromere integrity and sister chromatid cohesion regulation, thus playing a key role in chromosome segregation.

Histone variant H2A.Z.2 mediates proliferation and drug sensitivity of malignant melanoma (expression)

Project description:Here we report a novel role for H2A.Z.2 (H2AFV) as a mediator of cell proliferation and sensitivity to targeted therapies in malignant melanoma. While both H2A.Z.1 and H2A.Z.2 are highly expressed in metastatic melanoma and correlate with decreased patient survival, only H2A.Z.2 deficiency results in impaired cellular proliferation of melanoma cells, which occurs via a G1/S arrest. Integrated gene expression and ChIP-seq analyses revealed that H2A.Z.2 positively regulates E2F target genes, and that such genes acquire a distinct H2A.Z occupancy signature over the promoter and gene body in metastatic melanoma cells. We further identified the BET family member BRD2 as an H2A.Z-interacting protein in melanoma cells, and demonstrate that H2A.Z.2 silencing cooperates with BET inhibition to induce cell death. Total RNA samples from SKmel147 melanoma cell line. Transcript levels were analyzed after control or H2AZ variant RNA interference.

Expression data from H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2 double KO cells

Project description:The histone variant H2A.Z is evolutionarily conserved from yeast to vertebrates. H2A.Z regulates gene expression when localized to promoter region. Recently, we identified two genes encoding H2A.Z, H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2 in vertebrate genome. However, it is not clear that both H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2 were required for the function of H2A.Z in gene regulation. To address this issue, we generated the H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2 double knock out (KO) cells in chicken DT40 cells. The expression pattern of H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2 double KO cells was compared with WT cells to characterize the genes regulated by H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2. We used microarrays to analysis the alternation of gene expression between WT and H2A.Z double KO cells and identify classes of up or down regulated gene by H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2. In H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2 double KO cells, H2A.Z-2 is knocked out constitutively, but H2A.Z-1 conditionally by tetracycline. The expression of H2A.Z-1 transgene is suppressed completely when H2A.Z-1 and H2A.Z-2 double KO cells culture with tetracycline for three days. For this reason, we prepared the total RNA of WT cells and H2A.Z-1and H2A.Z-2 double KO cells treated with tetracycline for three days and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

H2A.Z inheritance during the cell cycle and its impact on promoter organization and dynamics [ChIP-seq]

Project description:While it has been clearly established that well positioned H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes flank the nucleosome depleted region (NDR) at the transcriptional start site (TSS) of active mammalian genes, how this chromatin-based information is transmitted through the cell cycle is unknown. We show here that in trophoblast stem (TS) cells, the level of H2A.Z at promoters decreases during S phase coinciding with homotypic (H2A.Z/H2A.Z) nucleosomes flanking the TSS becoming heterotypic (H2A.Z/H2A). Surprisingly, these nucleosomes remain heterotypic at M phase. At the TSS, we identify an unstable heterotypic H2A.Z-containing nucleosome in G1 which, strikingly, is lost following DNA replication. These dynamic changes in H2A.Z at the TSS mirror a global expansion of the NDR at S and M which, unexpectedly, is unrelated to transcriptional activity. Coincident with the loss of H2A.Z at promoters, it is targeted to the centromere when mitosis begins We performed ChIP-Seq experiments (on mouse Trophoblast Stem cells arrested at G1; S and M stages of thecell cycle) using antibodies against histone variant H2A.Z and sequentional ChIP-re-ChIP-Seq experiments using H2A.Z antibody and H2A antibody in sequence. Combining those data sets with microarray gene expression expression data allowed us to see H2A.Z distribution over promoters of mouse coding genes in cell cycle dependant manner. Interestingly, Input also showed cell-cycle dependent effects, but histone H3 could be used as a cell-cycle independent normalisation factor. We also performed ChIP-seq with a CTCF pull-down to investigate its cell-cycle dependent relationship with heterochromatin.
