Expression data from 17 day old testes of wild type and UBR2-/- mice

ABSTRACT: Ubiquitylation of histones provides an important mechanism regulating chromatin remodeling and gene expression. Recent studies have revealed ubiquitin ligases involved in histone ubiquitylation, yet the responsible enzymes and the function of histone ubiquitination in spermatogenesis remain unclear. Here we show that the ubiquitin ligase UBR2, one of the recognition E3 components of the N-end rule proteolytic pathway, localizes to meiotic chromatin regions, including unsynapsed axial elements linked to chromatin inactivation, and mediates, in combination with the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme HR6B, the ubiquitination of histone H2A. UBR2 interacts with HR6B and H2A and promotes the HR6B-H2A interaction and the HR6B-to-H2A transfer of ubiquitin. UBR2 and ubiquitinated H2A (uH2A) spatiotemporally mark meiotic chromatin regions subject to transcriptional silencing, and UBR2-deficient spermatocytes fail to induce the ubiquitination of H2A during meiosis. UBR2-deficient spermatocytes are profoundly impaired in transcriptional silencing of genes linked to unsynapsed axes of the X and Y chromosomes. We propose a model, in which UBR2 on axial elements of the X-Y pair enables HR6B on the linked chromatin domain to repeat histone ubiquitination cycles while scanning a string of nucleosomes. Our results suggest that histone ubiquitination in germ cells may be mediated by E3-E2 pairs distinct from those in somatic cells, providing a new insight into chromatin remodeling and gene expression regulation.

Dzip3 regulates developmental genes in mouse embryonic stem cells by reorganizing 3D chromatin conformation [ChIP-seq]

Project description:In mouse embryonic stem cells (mES cells), ubiquitylation of histone H2A lysine 119 represses a large number of developmental genes and maintains mES cell pluripotency. It has been suggested that a number of H2A ubiquitin ligases as well as deubiquitylases and related peptide fragments contribute to a delicate balance between self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation in mES cells. Here, we tested whether known H2A ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitylases are involved in mES cell regulation and discovered that Dzip3, the E3 ligase of H2AK119, represses differentiation-inducible genes as well as Ring1B. The two sets of target genes partially overlapped but hadãdifferent spectra. We found that Dzip3 represses gene expression by orchestrating changes in 3D organization in addition to regulating ubiquitylation of H2A. Our results shed light on the epigenetic mechanism of transcriptional regulation, which depends on 3D chromatin reorganization to regulate mES cell differentiation. Examination of 3 different histone modifications in 1 cell type.

The ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme HR6B is required for maintenance of X chromosome silencing in mouse spermatocytes and spermatids

Project description:Background: The ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme HR6B is required for spermatogenesis in mouse. Loss of HR6B results in aberrant histone modification patterns on the trancriptionally silenced X and Y chromosomes (XY body) and on centromeric chromatin in meiotic prophase. We studied the relationship between these chromatin modifications and their effects on global gene expression patterns, in spermatocytes and spermatids. Results: HR6B is enriched on the XY body and on centromeric regions in pachytene spermatocytes. Global gene expression analyses revealed that spermatid-specific single- and multicopy X-linked genes are prematurely expressed in Hr6b knockout spermatocytes. Very few other differences in gene expression were observed in these cells, except for upregulation of major satellite repeat transcription. In contrast, in Hr6b knockout spermatids, 7298 genes were differentially expressed; 65% of these genes was downregulated, but we observed a global upregulation of gene transcription from the X chromosome. In wildtype spermatids, approximately 20% of the single-copy X-linked genes reach an average expression level that is similar to the average expression from autosomes. Conclusions: Spermatids maintain an enrichment of repressive chromatin marks on the X chromosome, originating from meiotic prophase, but this does not interfere with transcription of the single-copy X-linked genes that are reactivated or specifically activated in spermatids. HR6B represses major satellite repeat transcription in spermatocytes, and functions in the maintenance of X chromosome silencing in spermatocytes and spermatids. It is discussed that these functions involve modification of chromatin structure, possibly including H2B ubiquitylation. 8 Affymetrix microarrays were generated: 4 from wildtype and HR6B knockout spermatocytes (2 replicates each), and 4 from wildtype and HR6B knockout spermatids (2 replicates each).

dKDM2 couples histone H2A ubiquitylation to histone H3 demethylation during Polycomb group silencing.

Project description:Transcription regulation involves enzyme-mediated changes in chromatin structure. Here, we describe a novel mode of histone crosstalk during gene silencing, in which histone H2A monoubiquitylation is coupled to the removal of histone H3 Lys 36 dimethylation (H3K36me2). This pathway was uncovered through the identification of dRING-associated factors (dRAF), a novel Polycomb group (PcG) silencing complex harboring the histone H2A ubiquitin ligase dRING, PSC and the F-box protein, and demethylase dKDM2. In vivo, dKDM2 shares many transcriptional targets with Polycomb and counteracts the histone methyltransferases TRX and ASH1. Importantly, cellular depletion and in vitro reconstitution assays revealed that dKDM2 not only mediates H3K36me2 demethylation but is also required for efficient H2A ubiquitylation by dRING/PSC. Thus, dRAF removes an active mark from histone H3 and adds a repressive one to H2A. These findings reveal coordinate trans-histone regulation by a PcG complex to mediate gene repression. Microarray analysis of dKDM2, dRING, PC, PH and PSC target genes in Drosophila S2 cells Expression profiles of Drosophila S2 cells RNAi depleted (KD) for dKDM2, dRING, PC, PH or PSC were compared with expression profile of untreated S2 cells (Mock)

TRIM37 is a novel H2A ubiquitin ligase and a Breast Cancer Oncogene

Project description:The TRIM37 gene is mutatedin Mulbery nanism, a rare autosomal recessive disorder, and is in the 17q23 chromosomal region that is amplified in up to ~40% of breast cancers. Trim37 contains a RING finger domain, a hallmark of E3 ubiquitin ligases, but the protein substrate(s) of Trim37 is unknown. Mono-ubiquitination of histone H2A is a chromatin modification associated with transcriptional repression and here we report that Trim37 is an H2A ubiquitin ligase. Genome-wide Chip-CHIP experiments indicate that in human breast cancer cells containing amplified 17q23, Trim37 is bound to the promoters of many tumor suppressor genes. RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated knockdown of Trim37 results in loss of ubiquitinated H2A, dissociation of PRC1 and PRC2, and transcriptional reactivation of silenced genes. Knockdown of Trim37 in human breast cancer cells containing amplified 17q23 substantially decreases tumor growth in mouse xenografts. Collectively, our results reveal Trim37 as a new H2A ubiquitin ligase that is overexpressed in a subset of breast cancers and redirects PRC2 to silence tumor suppressors and other genes resulting in oncogenesis.

BRCA1/BARD1 intrinsically disordered regions facilitate chromatin recruitment and ubiquitylation

Project description:BRCA1/BARD1 is a tumor suppressor E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligase with roles in DNA damage repair and in transcriptional regulation. BRCA1/BARD1 RING domains interact with nucleosomes to facilitate mono-ubiquitylation of distinct residues on the C-terminal tail of histone H2A. These enzymatic domains constitute a small fraction of the heterodimer, raising the possibility of functional chromatin interactions involving other regions such as the BARD1 C-terminal domains that bind nucleosomes containing the DNA damage signal H2A K15-Ub and H4 K20me0, or portions of the expansive intrinsically disordered regions found in both subunits. Herein, we reveal novel interactions that support robust H2A ubiquitylation activity mediated through a high-affinity, intrinsically disordered DNA-binding region of BARD1. These interactions support BRCA1/BARD1 recruitment to chromatin and sites of DNA damage in cells and contribute to their survival. We also reveal distinct BRCA1/BARD1 complexes that depend on the presence of H2A K15-Ub, including a complex where a single BARD1 subunit spans adjacent nucleosome units. Our findings identify an extensive network of multivalent BARD1-nucleosome interactions that serve as a platform for BRCA1/BARD1-associated functions on chromatin.
