Transcription and FACT facilitate the restoration of replication-coupled chromatin assembly defects

ABSTRACT: Genome duplication occurs through the coordinated action of DNA replication and nucleosome assembly at replication forks. Defective nucleosome assembly causes DNA lesions by fork breakage that need to be repaired. In addition, it causes a loss of chromatin integrity. These chromatin alterations can be restored, even though the mechanisms are unknown. Here, we show that the process of chromatin restoration can deal with highly severe chromatin defects induced by the absence of the chaperones CAF1 and Rtt106 or a strong reduction in the pool of available histones, and that this process can be followed by analyzing the topoisomer distribution of the 2m plasmid. Using this assay, we demonstrate that chromatin restoration is slow and independent of checkpoint activation, whereas it requires the action of transcription and the FACT complex. Therefore, cells are able to “repair” not only DNA lesions but also chromatin alterations associated with defective nucleosome assembly.

Identification of Elg1 interaction partners and effects on post-replication chromatin re-formation

Project description:Elg1, the major subunit of a Replication Factor C-like complex, is critical to ensure genomic stability during DNA replication, and is implicated in controlling chromatin structure. We investigated the consequences of Elg1 loss for the dynamics of chromatin re-formation following DNA replication. Measurement of Okazaki fragment length and the micrococcal nuclease sensitivity of newly replicated DNA revealed a defect in nucleosome re-assembly in the absence of Elg1. Using a proteomic approach to identify Elg1 binding partners, we discovered that Elg1 interacts with Rtt106, a histone chaperone implicated in replication-coupled nucleosome assembly that also regulates transcription. We find that Rtt106 recruitment to a number of promoters depends on Elg1. A central role for Elg1 is the unloading of PCNA from chromatin following DNA replication, so we examined the relative importance of Rtt106 and PCNA unloading for chromatin reassembly following DNA replication. We find that the major cause of the chromatin assembly defects of an elg1 mutant is PCNA retention on DNA following replication, with Rtt106-Elg1 interaction potentially playing a contributory role.

S.cerevisiae INO80 is required for promoter proximal nucleosome remodeling.

Project description:During transcription, nucleosomes are evicted from regulatory and coding regions yet chromatin structure is stable. Restoration of chromatin structure involves concerted action of chromatin modifying activities. Our analysis demonstrates a genome wide function of the INO80 remodeling complex for stable repositioning of the nucleosome immediately proximal to the transcription initiation site. INO80 dependent remodeling of the promoter proximal nucleosomes has a global repressive role. Recruitment of INO80 to proximal nucleosomes overlaps with the elongating Polymerase II complex assembly. The amount of associated Polymerase II at start sites correlates with INO80 recruitment for inducible and constantly transcribed genes. Furthermore, at highly inducible promoters INO80 is required for repression of bidirectional transcription. Therefore, we suggest a function for INO80 after transcription initiation to achieve Polymerase II dependent reassembly of promoter proximal nucleosomes.

A CHAF1B-dependent molecular switch in hematopoiesis and leukemia pathogenesis

Project description:CHAF1B is the p60 subunit of the chromatin assembly factor (CAF1) complex, which is responsible for assembly of H3.1/H4 heterodimers at the replication fork during S phase. Here we report that CHAF1B is required for normal hematopoiesis while its overexpression promotes leukemia. CHAF1B has a pro-leukemia effect by binding chromatin at discrete sites and interfering with occupancy of transcription factors that promote myeloid differentiation, such as CEBPA. Reducing Chaf1b activity by either heterozygous deletion or overexpression of a CAF1 dominant negative allele was sufficient to suppress leukemogenesis in vivo without impairing normal hematopoiesis.

A role of RPA in replication coupled nucleosome assembly

Project description:Chromatin replication requires tight coordination of nucleosome assembly machinery with DNA replication machinery. While significant progress has been made in characterizing histone chaperones in this process, the mechanism of whereby nucleosome assembly couples with DNA replication remains largely unknown. Here we show that replication protein A (RPA), a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding protein that is essential for DNA replication provides a binding platform for H3-H4 deposition by histone chaperons and is required for nucleosome formation on nascent chromatin. RPA binds free histone H3-H4 but not nucleosomal histones, and a RPA coated ssDNA stimulates assembly of H3-H4 onto double strand DNA in vitro. RPA mutant with reduced H3-H4 binding exhibits synthetic genetic interaction with mutations at key factors involved in replication-coupled (RC) nucleosome assembly, and are defective in assembly of replicating DNA into nucleosomes in cells. These results reveal a novel function for RPA in nucleosome assembly and a mechanism whereby nucleosome assembly is coordinated with DNA replication.

DNA replication-mediated error correction of ectopic CENP-A deposition maintains centromere identity

Project description:Chromatin assembled with histone H3 variant CENP-A is the heritable epigenetic determinant of human centromere identity. Using genome-wide mapping and reference models for 23 human centromeres, CENP-A is shown in early G1 to be assembled into nucleosomes within megabase, repetitive a-satellite DNAs at each centromere and onto 11,390 sites on the chromosome arms. Centromere-bound CENP-A is found to be quantitatively maintained during DNA replication by coordinated action of the MCM2 helicase, CAF1, HJURP, and the CCAN network of constitutive centromere components. CCAN serves to tether CENP-A removed by MCM2, thereby enabling local reassembly onto both daughter centromeres with identical DNA sequence preferences and nucleosome phasing as the loading in G1 and independent of CENP-B. Conversely, without CCAN-mediated tethering, DNA replication removes CENP-A from sites on the chromosome arms. Our data identify an MCM2/CAF1/HJURP- and CCAN-dependent error correction mechanism that acts in S-phase to maintain CENP-A-dependent centromere identity.

Gene expression profiling in neuroblastoma cells upon CHAF1A silencing

Project description:We used an inducible ShRNA system and microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying neuroblastoma differentiation upon CHAF1A silencing . CHAF1A is a subunit of the Chromatin Assembly Factor-1 (CAF1) and regulates H3K9-trimethylation. High expression of CHAF1A strongly correlates with neuroblastoma poor prognosis and loss-of-function drives neuronal differentiation in vitro and in vivo.

Replication-coupled nucleosome assembly and positioning by ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling enzymes

Project description:We have previously shown that Okazaki fragments in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are sized according to the chromatin repeat. Here we demonstrate that nucleosome positioning is rapidly established on newly synthesized DNA. Using deep sequencing, we demonstrate that ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling enzymes, Isw1 and Chd1, collaborate with histone chaperones, such as CAF-1 and Rtt106, to remodel nucleosomes, as they are loaded. Importantly, we find that nucleosome positioning is ultimately specified by select sequence-specific DNA-binding factors, which serve as physical cues for chromatin remodeling. Our results provide a mechanistic understanding of how chromatin structures are replicated in vivo, and show that chromatin structure at gene promoters is rapidly established after DNA replication. Altogether, our data provide evidence for coordinated âloading and remodelingâ of nucleosomes behind the replication fork, in collaboration with packing of nucleosomes against a barrier. 7 samples, including a wild type, are included. All are single-end sequenced via Ion Torrent PGM methodology.

Interdependent roles for histone chaperones and a chromatin boundary regulator in histone gene repression

Project description:A two-colour cell array screen reveals interdependent roles for histone chaperones and a chromatin boundary regulator in histone gene repression. We describe a fluorescent reporter system that exploits the functional genomic tools available in budding yeast to systematically assess consequences of genetic perturbations on gene expression. We used our Reporter-Synthetic Genetic Array (R-SGA) method to screen for regulators of core histone gene expression. We discovered that the histone chaperone Rtt106 functions in a pathway with two other chaperones, Asf1 and the HIR complex, to create a repressive chromatin structure at core histone promoters. We found that activation of histone (HTA1) gene expression involves both relief of Rtt106-mediated repression by the activity of the histone acetyltransferase Rtt109 and restriction of Rtt106 to the promoter region by the bromodomain-containing protein Yta7. We propose that the maintenance of Asf1/HIR/Rtt106-mediated repressive chromatin domains is the primary mechanism of cell cycle regulation of histone promoters. Our data suggest that this pathway may represent a chromatin regulatory mechanism that is broadly used across the genome.

Promoter DNA sequence guides factors that position the +1 nucleosome and facilitate TBP binding [sequencing]

Project description:Here we present evidence that precise positioning of the +1 promoter nucleosome in yeast is critical for efficient TBP binding and pre-initiation complex assembly, and is determined, at least in part, by the action of two key factors, the essential chromatin remodeler RSC and one (or more) of a small set of ubiquitous pioneer transcription factors (PTFs). Despite their widespread co-localization, we show that RSC and PTFs often act independently to generate accessible chromatin. Furthermore, we present evidence that RSC binding, as well as the strength and directionality of its action on nucleosomes, depends upon the arrangement of two specific DNA motifs relative to nearby PTF binding sites. Our results provide insights into how promoter DNA sequence instructs trans-acting factors to precisely control nucleosome architecture and stimulate transcription initiation.
