SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex coordinates the meiotic gene activation via promoter remodeling and Meiosin activation in female germline

ABSTRACT: In mammals, primordial germ cells (PGCs) enter meiosis and differentiate to primary oocytes in embryonic ovaries. Previously, we demonstrated that SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex is required for induction of the meiotic prophase genes and meiotic initiation in female germline, using conditional knockout (CKO) mice lacking the Smarcb1 (also known as Snf5) gene, which encodes a core subunit of the SWI/SNF complex. Here, we show that the meiotic prophase genes expressed at lower levels in the Snf5 CKO females can be classified into two groups, based on the promoter accessibility. The promoters of 74% of these genes showed lower accessibility in the mutant mice whereas those of remaining genes were opened equivalently in control and the mutant mice. The former genes include the Meiosin that encodes the transcription regulator essential for activation of the meiotic prophase genes. Furthermore, the promoters of the former and the latter genes were largely modified with H3K27me3/bivalent histone marks and H3K4me3, respectively. Collectively, we provide the mechanistic model by which SWI/SNF complex remodels the meiotic prophase genes repressed by polycomb repressive complex (PRC), including the Meiosin, and then MEIOSIN together with STRA8 activates the meiotic prophase genes in female germline.

Loss of Snf5 and the formation of an aberrant SWI/SNF complex

Project description:Aberrant forms of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex are associated with human disease. Loss of the Snf5 subunit of SWI/SNF is a driver mutation in pediatric rhabdoid cancers and forms aberrant sub-complexes that are not well characterized. We determined the effects of loss of Snf5 on the composition, nucleosome binding, recruitment and remodeling activities of yeast SWI/SNF. The Snf5 subunit interacts with the ATPase domain of Snf2 and forms a submodule consisting of Snf5, Swp82 and Taf14 as shown by mapping SWI/SNF subunit interactions by crosslinking-mass spectrometry and subunit deletion followed by immunoaffinity chromatography. Snf5 promoted binding of the Snf2 ATPase domain to nucleosomal DNA, enhanced its catalytic activity and facilitated nucleosome remodeling. Snf5 was required for acidic transcription factors to recruit SWI/SNF to chromatin. RNA-seq analysis suggested that both the recruitment and catalytic functions mediated by Snf5 are required for SWI/SNF regulation of gene expression.

Multiple interactions of the oncoprotein transcription factor MYC with the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeler

Project description:We report that even though SNF5 is the most well-documented SWI/SNF subunit to bind MYC, MYC can use multiple interaction surfaces to interact with SWI/SNF subunits independently of SNF5. In line with this, MYC interacts with the pan-SWI/SNF subunit, BAF155, in multiple SNF5-null malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) cell lines and almost all of MYC co-localizes with SWI/SNF subunits on chromatin in MRT. In the MRT cell line, G401, MYC binds to essential genes, although for a purpose that appears distinct from chromatin remodeling, and loss of MYC leads to widespread gene expression changes. Analysis of specific MYC-SWI/SNF target genes in G401 cells reveals that this group of genes are associated with core biological functions linked to protein synthesis and their transcription is directly activated by MYC. These data provide a solid framework in which to interrogate the influence of SWI/SNF on MYC function in cancers in which SWI/SNF or MYC are altered.

SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex is required for initiation of sex-dependent differentiation in mouse germline

Project description:Sexual reproduction involves the creation of sex-dependent gametes, oocytes and sperm. In mammals, sexually dimorphic differentiation commences in the primordial germ cells (PGCs) in embryonic gonads; PGCs in ovaries and testes differentiate into meiotic primary oocytes and mitotically quiescent prospermatogonia, respectively. Here, we show that the transition from PGCs to　sex-specific germ cells was abrogated in conditional knockout mice carrying a null mutation of Smarcb1 (also known as Snf5) gene, which encodes a core subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex. In female mutant mice, failure to upregulate meiosis-related genes resulted in impaired meiotic entry and progression, including defects in synapsis formation and DNA repair. Mutant male mice exhibited delayed mitotic arrest and DNA hypomethylation in retrotransposons and imprinted genes, resulting from aberrant expression of genes related to growth and de novo DNA methylation. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the SWI/SNF complex is required for transcriptional reprogramming in the initiation of sex-dependent differentiation of germ cells.

NGS analysis of WT and snf2∆ transcriptomes

Project description:Despite its streamlined genome, there are important examples of regulated RNA splicing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. One of the most striking is the regulated splicing of meiotic transcripts, part of the dramatic reprogramming of gene expression upon meiotic onset. Here we show a crucial role for the chromatin remodeler Snf2, part of the Swi/Snf complex in meiotic regulation of splicing. We find that the complex affects meiotic splicing in several ways. First, meiosis-specific expression of the splicing activator Mer1 is Swi/Snf dependent, involves precise timing of acetylation of histone H3K9 at the MER1 locus, and changes in the acetylation state of Snf2. Additionally, Swi/Snf abundance regulates meiosis-specific downregulation of ribosomal protein encoding RNAs, leading to the redistribution of spliceosomes from this abundant class of intron-containing RNAs to meiotic transcripts. This regulation is achieved by rapid downregulation of the Snf2 protein. Taken together these data reveal that the Swi/Snf complex coordinates a cascade of events to direct the regulated splicing of meiotic genes, establishing it as a master regulator of meiotic splicing in S. cerevisiae.

A novel genetic circuitry governing hypoxic metabolic flexibility, commensalism and virulence in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans

Project description:Inside the human host, the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans colonizes predominantly oxygen-poor niches such as the gastrointestinal and vaginal tracts, but also oxygen-rich environments such as cutaneous epithelial cells and oral mucosa. This suppleness requires an effective mechanism to reprogram reversibly the primary metabolism in response to oxygen variation. Here, we have uncovered that Snf5, a subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, is a major transcriptional regulator that links oxygen status to the metabolic capacity of C. albicans. Snf5 and other subunits of SWI/SNF complex were required to activate genes of carbon utilization and other carbohydrates related process specifically under hypoxia. snf5 mutant exhibited an altered metabolome reflecting that SWI/SNF plays an essential role in maintaining metabolic homeostasis and carbon flux in C. albicans under hypoxia. Snf5 was necessary to activate the transcriptional program linked to both commensal and invasive growth. Accordingly, snf5 was unable to maintain its growth in the stomach, the cecum and the colon of mice. snf5 was also avirulent as it was unable to invade Galleria larvae or to cause damage to human enterocytes and murine macrophages. Among candidates of signaling pathways in which Snf5 might operate, phenotypic analysis revealed that mutants of Ras1-cAMP-PKA pathway, as well as mutants of Yak1 and Yck2 kinases exhibited a similar carbon flexibility phenotype as did snf5 under hypoxia. Genetic interaction analysis indicated that the adenylate cyclase Cyr1, a key component of the Ras1-cAMP pathway genetically with Snf5. Our study yielded new insight into the oxygen-sensitive regulatory circuit that control metabolic flexibility, stress, commensalism and virulence in C. albicans.

BRAHMA-containing chromatin remodelling complex prevailing in Arabidopsis vegetative organs is a homolog of mammalian non-canonical SWI/SNF complexes and requires BRD subunits for assembly and stability

Project description:The SWI/SNF family of chromatin remodeling complexes is evolutionarily conserved and present in yeast, animals and plants. While the biological functions of plant SWI/SNF complexes have been studied in detail, their composition is still elusive. To clarify this picture we used protein extracts from Arabidopsis plants in vegetative phase of growth to perform a series of immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry experiments, using GFP-tagged BRM ATPase as a bait. The analysis of MS data showed that the dominant form of SWI/SNF complex present in these extracts has a specific subunit composition including ARP4 and 7, SWI3C, SWP73B and BRIP2, as well as three bromodomain containing subunits, BRD1, 2 and 13. This subunit composition and the lack of the core SWI/SNF subunit BSH (SNF5/INI1) both strongly resemble the characteristics of the specific subclass of mammalian SWI/SNF complexes referred to as non-canonical BAFs, indicating that homologues of these complexes also exist in plants. We next found that depletion of the all three BRDs severely affected the assembly of this form of BRM-associated SWI/SNF complex. However, while BRD1 and BRD2 were found sufficient to allow complex formation, BRD13 was only required under BRD1/2 deficiency. The analyses of IP/MS results using BRM-GFP in different brd mutant backgrounds as well as BRD1-GFP indicate that SWI/SNF assemblies containing only one BRD isoform, BRD1 or BRD2, do exist. Furthermore, our data indicate that BRD1/2 may be necessary for the incorporation of BRIP2 subunit into the complex. Together, our results shed new light on the structural and functional diversification of SWI/SNF complexes in Arabidopsis.

Mouse testis Co-IP LC-MSMS for studying HSF5 function

Project description:The pachynema progression, a crucial meiotic process, contributes to the completion of prophase I. Nevertheless, the regulation of this significant meiotic process remains poorly understood. In this study, we identified a novel testis-specific protein HSF5, which regulates pachynema progression during male meiosis in a chromatin-binding manner. Deficiency of HSF5 results in meiotic arrest and male infertility, characterized as unconventionally accumulated pachynema halting at the mid-to-late stage, with extensive spermatocyte apoptosis. Our scRNA-seq data confirmed consistent expressional alterations of certain driver genes(Sycp1, Msh4, Meiob, etc.) crucial for pachynema progression in Hsf5-/- individuals. Ulteriorly, HSF5 was revealed to primarily bind to promoter regions of such key divers by CUT&Tag analysis. Also, our results demonstrated that HSF5 biologically interacted with the chromatin-remodeling SWI/SNF complex, and it could function as a transcriptional factor for pachynema progression during meiosis. Therefore, our study underscored the importance of the chromatin-associated HSF5 for the differentiation of spermatocytes, improving the protein regulatory network of the pachynema progression.

Eda-activated RelB recruits an SWI/SNF (BAF) chromatin-remodeling complex and initiates gene transcription in skin appendage formation

Project description:Skin-specific Eda signaling promotes skin appendage development through NF-kB mediated gene transcription. We find that Eda triggers the formation of a novel SWI/SNF complex in which RelB is recruited through a linker protein, Tfg, to interact with the BAF45d component in SWI/SNF (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex. BAF component BAF250a is particularly enriched in skin appendages, and epidermal knockout (cKO) of BAF250a impairs skin appendage development, resulting in phenotypes similar to those of Eda-deficient mouse models. We further reveal that Eda signaling is predominantly mediated by the p50/RelB subclass of NF-kB in both human keratinocytes and mouse skin. Consistent with the phenotype of BAF250a cKO mice, downregulation of RelB, Tfg, or BAF45d arrests the growth of Meibomian gland germs in organ cultures. Transcription profiling consistently identifies several target genes regulated by Eda, RelB and SWI/SNF. In particular, we show that both RelB and SWI/SNF are indispensable for transcription of Eda target Ltb. Chromatin remodeling SWI/SNF recruited to specific gene loci by Eda-activated RelB thus provides a mediation model between an initiation signal and gene activation in organogenesis.

Transcription factor Znf2 coordinates with the chromatin remodeling SWI/SNF complex to regulate differentiation in Cryptococcus neoformans

Project description:Cellular differentiation is instructed by development regulators in coordination with chromatin remodeling complexes. Much information about their coordination comes from studies in the model ascomycetous yeasts. It is not clear, however, of the kind of information that can be extrapolated to species of other phyla in Kingdom Fungi. In the basidiomycete Cryptococcus neoformans, the transcription factor Znf2 controls yeast-to-hypha differentiation. Through a forward genetic screen, we identified the basidiomycete-specific factor Brf1 and discovered that it works together with Snf5 in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex in concert with existent Znf2 to execute cellular differentiation. We demonstrated that SWI/SNF assists Znf2 opening up the promoter regions of hyphal specific genes, including the ZNF2 gene itself. In addition, this complex supports Znf2 to fully associate with its target regions. Importantly, our findings revealed key differences in composition and biological function of the SWI/SNF complex in the two major phyla of Kingdom Fungi.
