Specialized replication of heterochromatin domains ensures self-templated chromatin assembly and epigenetic inheritance [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Heterochromatin domains defined by distinct histone methylation patterns are a major feature of mammalian genomes. Epigenetic pathways ensure stable heterochromatin inheritance through cell division to prevent the expression of lineage-inappropriate genes and defects in this process can lead to many diseases including cancer. Previous studies have shown that heterochromatin maintenance requires a critical threshold of methylated histones, but how modified parental histones are transferred to daughter strands during DNA replication is unclear. We find that heterochromatin domains are specialized replication zones enriched in replisome components, which load factors that help retain parental histones. This mechanism is further supported by the boundary elements surrounding the heterochromatin domains. DNA replication is thus coordinated with histone preservation to facilitate epigenetic inheritance of heterochromatin.

A replisome-associated parental histone H3-H4 tetramer chaperone required for faithful epigenetic inheritance

Project description:Faithful transfer of parental histones to newly replicated daughter DNA strands is critical for inheritance of epigenetic states. Although replication proteins that facilitate parental histone transfer have been identified, how intact histone H3-H4 tetramers travel relatively large distances from the front to the back of the replication fork remains unknown. Here, we use AlphaFold-Multimer structural predictions combined with biochemical and genetic approaches to identify the Mrc1/CLASPIN subunit of the replisome as a histone chaperone. Mrc1 contains a conserved histone binding domain that forms a brace around the H3-H4 tetramer mimicking nucleosomal DNA and H2A-H2B histones, is required for heterochromatin inheritance, and promotes parental histone recycling during replication. We further identify binding sites for the FACT histone chaperone in Swi1/TIMELESS and DNA polymerase α that are required for heterochromatin inheritance. We propose that Mrc1, in concert with FACT acting as a mobile co-chaperone, coordinates the distribution of parental histones to newly replicated DNA.

The fork protection complex promotes symmetric histone recycling to maintain heterochromatin [SCAR-seq]

Project description:The inheritance of parental histones across the replication fork is thought to mediate epigenetic memory. Here, we reveal that fission yeast Mrc1 (Claspin in humans) binds H3-H4 tetramers and operates as a central coordinator of symmetric parental histone inheritance. Mrc1 mutants in a key connector domain disrupted segregation of parental histones to the lagging strand comparable to Mcm2 histone-binding mutants. Both mutants showed clonal and asymmetric loss of H3K9me-mediated gene silencing. AlphaFold predicted co-chaperoning of H3-H4 tetramers by Mrc1 and Mcm2, with the Mrc1 connector domain bridging histone and Mcm2 binding. Biochemical and functional analysis validated this model and revealed a duality in Mrc1 function: disabling histone binding in the connector domain disrupted lagging strand recycling while another histone-binding mutation impaired leading strand recycling. We propose Mrc1 toggles histones between the lagging and leading strand recycling pathways, in part by intra-replisome co-chaperoning, to ensure epigenetic transmission to both daughter cells.

The INO80 complex regulates epigenetic inheritance of heterochromatin (RNA-seq)

Project description:One key aspect of epigenetic inheritance is that chromatin structure can be stably inherited through generations even after removal of the initial signal that establishes such structure. In fission yeast, the RNA interference (RNAi) machinery is critical for the targeting of histone methyltransferase Clr4 to repetitive DNA elements to establish a large domain of heterochromatin marked with histone H3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me). Subsequently during DNA replication, the deposition of parental histones containing H3K9me into daughter DNA strands is expected to recruit Clr4 to modify neighboring new histones, resulting in the inheritance of heterochromatin in both daughter cells. However, pericentric heterochromatin cannot be properly inherited in the absence of RNAi, suggesting the existence of mechanisms that counteract chromatin-based inheritance. Here we show that in the absence of certain components of the INO80 chromatin remodeling complex, pericentric heterochromatin can be properly inherited in RNAi mutants. The ability of INO80 to counter heterochromatin inheritance is attributed to one accessory subunit Iec5, which promotes histone turn over at heterochromatin regions, but has little effects on the ability of INO80 in regulating nucleosome positioning at heterochromatin, gene expression, or the DNA damage response. Slow histone turnover preserves parental histones at repeat regions to enhance epigenetic inheritance of heterochromatin not only in RNAi mutants but also in wild type cells. Our analyses identified a separation-of-function mutation of INO80 in regulating histone turnover at heterochromatin and demonstrate the important role of histone turnover in controlling heterochromatin inheritance and maintaining the proper heterochromatin landscape of the genome.

Quantification of histone H3 and H4 modifications by mass spectrometry in wildtype and MCM2-2A mutants of mice ESCs

Project description:During DNA replication modified parental histones H3-H4 are segregated almost symmetrically to the two daughter DNA strands enabling mitotic inheritance of histone PTMs. Whether heritable histone modifications confer epigenetic regulation by maintaining chromatin states and gene expression is unclear. Using MCM2 histone-binding mutant embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and mass spectrometry, we show that asymmetric segregation of parental histones to the leading strand causes imbalanced inheritance of histone H3K27 methylations to daughter cells.
