Project description:Chip-on-chip experiment with NT2 wildtype cells untreated (0 h) or treated with Retinoic Acid (1h and 3 h) at 0.01 µM. The goal was to determine the genome-wide occupancy of ZRF1 at gene promoters in undifferentiated cells and at the onset of differentiation. Three-condition experiment. Biological replicates: NT2 cells were treated with or without RA on three different days from cycling NT2 cells (0h, 1h and 3h of RA). Chromatin was prepared and a triplicate of IPs was performed with specific ZRF1 antibodies for every condition. A triplicate of control IPs was performed with IgGs.

Project description:We produced a genome-wide map of the distribution of macroH2A1 histone variants in mouse liver chromatin using high-throughput sequencing of DNA from macroH2A1 nucleosomes. Although macroH2A1 nucleosomes are widely distributed across the genome, their local concentration varies over a range of 100-fold or more. The transcribed regions of most active genes are depleted of macroH2A1, with many showing depletion of 3-fold or more. The inactive X chromosome appears to have relatively uniform macroH2A1 enrichment that averages approximately 3.9-fold, but most genes that are known to escape from X inactivation do not show this enrichment. We used macroH2A1 depletion to identify additional genes that escape X inactivation, but overall, our map supports the idea that relatively few genes escape in the mouse. The map also helped identify genes that appear to be direct targets of macroH2A1-mediated repression.

The map also helped identify genes that appear to be direct targets of macroH2A1-mediated repression. MacroH2A1 nucleosomes were purified from female mouse liver chromatin by thiol-affinity chromatography (Mol. Cell Biol. 26, 4410 (2006)) and their distribution was compared to that of the bulk nucleosomes used as the starting material for the purification. Nucleosomal DNA from two independent preparations was pooled and mononucleosomal DNA was prepared from both macroH2A1 and starting material nucleosomes. Each preparation used 8 to 10 livers from 8 to 10 week old female mice. For the relative macroH2A1 content file (see supplementary file), we used tools in the rna-seq workflow of Partek Genomics Suite (version 6.5b, 6.09.0806, Partek Inc.) to calculate the relative macroH2A1 content of individual genes. This program counts and normalizes hits in predefined regions specified in a refFlat file. The gene list was the Mouse build 8 version of refFlat.txt obtained from the UCSC Genome site. All exon information was stripped from the refFlat.txt file, which left only the start and stop sites for the genes. Normalized RPKM (reads per kilobase per million reads) values were compared to calculate fold change and FDR-adjusted p-values for each transcript.

Project description:We report here the distribution of the histone variant macroH2A in murine embryonic fibroblasts derived fom Lsh-/- embryos or Lsh+/+ embryos day 14 gestation using ChIP-seq analysis. We find that macroH2A1 and macroH2A2 deposition are reduced in the absence of Lsh in contrast to H2B deposition. The study identifies Lsh as important regulator of genome wide macroH2A deposition.

Project description:MacroH2As core histone variants have a unique structure that includes C-terminal nonhistone domain. MacroH2As are highly conserved in vertebrates, and are thought to regulate gene expression. However the nature of genes regulated by macroH2As and the biological significance of macroH2As for the organism remain unclear. Here we examine macroH2A function in vivo by knocking out both macroH2A1 and macroH2A2 in the mouse. We used microarrays to examine how the absence of macroH2A.1 and macroH2A.2 histone variants affect gene expression late fetal mouse liver. Wild-type and macroH2A1/2 double knockout pre-implantation embryos were collected, mixed and implanted into wild-type recipient females. Livers were collected from the resultant fetuses at 18.5 days post coitum and snap frozen with liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was extracted from the livers using Trizol.

Project description:Our work and that of others (Zovkic et al 2014 Nature, Maze et al 2015 Neuron) recently established histone variants as novel regulators of memory, whereby enrichment of H2A.Z, a variant of histone H2A, impairs memory formation. However, H2A has several structurally and functionally distinct members whose function in memory has never been studied. macroH2A (mH2A) is of special interest because it has been implicated as a risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Huntington’s (Hu et al 2011 PNAS), but its functional role in the brain is not known. Here, we conducted ChIP sequencing against macroH2A1 (mH2A1) and macroH2A2 (mH2A2) in the mouse hippocampus and showed that both proteins are enriched on transcriptionally silent genes, suggesting that mH2A has a repressive effect on transcription in the brain. However, only mH2A1 binding was dynamically reduced during learning, such that mH2A1 removal was associated with increased gene expression in response to fear conditioning. Additionally, viral vector mediated depletion of mH2A1 protein resulted in extensive dysregulation of gene transcription, whereas mH2A2 depletion had minimal transcriptional consequences. To determine if these differential downstream transcriptomes are functionally relevant, we showed that mH2A1, but not mH2A2 depletion resulted in impaired fear memory. These results suggest that mH2A1 is required for memory and that its dynamic removal during learning promotes training-induced gene expression. In concert with our prior evidence for a suppressive effect of H2A.Z on memory, these data suggest that unique H2A variants have distinct effects on memory formation and as such, implicate altered nucleosome composition as a novel regulator of neuroplasticity.

Project description:MacroH2A1 is a histone variant that is enriched on the inactive X chromosome (Xi) in mammals and is postulated to play an important, but unknown, role in the repression of gene expression. Here we show that although macroH2A1 marks repressed autosomal chromatin, it positively regulates transcription when located in the transcribed regions of many target genes. We used chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with tiling microarrays (ChIP-chip) to determine the genomic localization of macroH2A1 in IMR90 human primary lung fibroblasts and MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The patterns of macroH2A1 deposition are largely similar across the autosomes of both cell lines. Our studies revealed a genomic localization pattern unique among histone variants, namely the occupation by macroH2A1 of large chromatin domains (>500 kb in some cases) that contain repressive chromatin marks (e.g., histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation). The boundaries of macroH2A1-containing domains tend to occur in promoter proximal regions. Not all promoters, however, serve as macroH2A1 boundaries; many macroH2A1-containing chromatin domains invade the transcribed regions of genes whose products play key roles in development and cell-cell signaling. Surprisingly, the expression of many of these genes is positively regulated by macroH2A1. MacroH2A1 also plays a role in augmenting signal-regulated transcription, specifically for genes responsive to serum starvation. Collectively, our results document an unexpected role for macroH2A1 in the escape from heterochromatin-associated silencing and the enhancement of autosomal gene transcription. Two macroH2A1 ChIP-chip biological replicates from IMR90 human embryonic lung fibroblasts are included.
