THE HISTONE CHAPERONE SPN1 PRESERVES SUBNUCLEOSOMAL STRUCTURES AT PROMOTERS AND NUCLEOSOME POSITIONING IN OPEN READING FRAMES

ABSTRACT: Spn1 is a multifunctional histone chaperone essential for life in eukaryotes. While previous work has elucidated regions of the protein important for its many interactions, it is unknown how these domains contribute to the maintenance of chromatin structure. Here, we employ digestion by micrococcal nuclease followed by single-stranded library preparation and sequencing (MNase-SSP) to characterize chromatin structure in yeast expressing wild-type or mutants of Spn1. We mapped nucleosome and subnucleosomal protections genome-wide, and surprisingly, we observed a genome-wide loss of subnucleosomal protection over nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs) in the Spn1-K192N-containing strain, indicating critical functions of Spn1 in maintaining normal chromatin architecture in promoter regions. Additionally, alterations in nucleosome and hexasome positioning were observed in markedly different mutant Spn1 strains, demonstrating that multiple functions of Spn1 are required to maintain proper chromatin structure in open reading frames. Moreover, the impact of these functions correlated with gene expression and length. Taken together, our results reveal a previously unknown role of Spn1 in the maintenance of NDR architecture and deepen our understanding of Spn1-dependent chromatin maintenance over transcribed regions.

Essential histone chaperones collaborate to regulate transcription and chromatin integrity

Project description:Histone chaperones are critical for controlling chromatin integrity during transcription, DNA replication, and DNA repair. We have discovered that the physical interaction between two essential histone chaperones, Spt6 and Spn1/Iws1, is required for transcriptional accuracy and nucleosome organization. To understand this requirement, we have isolated suppressors of an spt6 mutation that disrupts the Spt6-Spn1 interaction. Several suppressors are in a third essential histone chaperone, FACT, while another suppressor is in the transcription elongation factor Spt5/DSIF. The FACT suppressors weaken FACT-nucleosome interactions and bypass the requirement for Spn1, possibly by restoring a necessary balance between Spt6 and FACT on chromatin. In contrast, the Spt5 suppressor modulates Spt6 function in a Spn1-dependent manner. Despite these distinct mechanisms, both suppressors alleviate the nucleosome organization defects caused by disruption of the Spt6-Spn1 interaction. Taken together, we have uncovered a network in which histone chaperones and other elongation factors coordinate transcriptional integrity and chromatin structure.

Nucleosomal and subnucleosomal organization of transcription cis-regulatory elements in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:We report a comprehensive analysis of nucleosomal and subnucleosomal organization at cis-regulatory elements (CREs) in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. We used chromatin fragmented by a moderate dose of micrococcal nuclease (MNase) as input for ChIP-seq with antibodies against histones and transcription factors and high-coverage deep-sequencing. Centrifugation of chromatin through sucrose gradients, followed by ChIP-seq, allowed the characterization of different subclasses of subnucleosomal particles having distribution patterns specific to enhancers, gene promoters and CTCF binding sites. We also provide datasets showing that this particular chromatin organization of CREs is conserved in the human melanoma 501Mel cell line.

The conserved elongation factor Spn1 is required for normal transcription, histone modifications, and splicing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:Spn1/Iws1 is a conserved protein involved in transcription and chromatin dynamics, yet its general in vivo requirement for these functions is unknown. Using a Spn1 depletion system in S. cerevisiae, we demonstrate that Spn1 broadly influences several aspects of gene expression on a genome-wide scale. We show that Spn1 is globally required for normal mRNA levels and for normal splicing of ribosomal protein transcripts. Furthermore, Spn1 maintains the localization of H3K36 and H3K4 methylation across the genome and is required for normal histone levels at highly expressed genes. Finally, we show that the association of Spn1 with the transcription machinery is strongly dependent on its binding partner, Spt6, while the association of Spt6 and Set2 with transcribed regions is partially dependent on Spn1. Taken together, our results show that Spn1 affects multiple aspects of gene expression in vivo and provide additional evidence that it functions as a histone chaperone.

Suppressor mutations that make the essential transcription factor Spn1/Iws1 dispensable in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:Spn1/Iws1 is an essential eukaryotic transcription elongation factor that is conserved from yeast to humans. Several studies have shown that Spn1 functions as a histone chaperone to control transcription, RNA splicing, genome stability, and histone modifications as an integral member of the RNA polymerase II elongation complex. However, the precise role of Spn1 is not understood, and there is little understanding of why it is essential for viability. To address these issues, we have isolated eight suppressor mutations that bypass the essential requirement for Spn1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Unexpectedly, the suppressors identify several functionally distinct complexes and activities, including the histone chaperone FACT, the histone methyltransferase Set2, the Rpd3S histone deacetylase complex, the histone acetyltransferase Rtt109, the nucleosome remodeler Chd1, and a member of the SAGA co-activator complex, Sgf73. The identification of these distinct groups and their analysis suggests that there are multiple mechanisms by which Spn1 bypass can occur, including changes in histone acetylation and alterations of other histone chaperones. Thus, Spn1 may participate in multiple functions during transcription. Our results suggest that bypass of a subset of these functions allows viability in the absence of Spn1.

Genome-wide reductions in active chromatin, paused RNA Polymerase II and nucleosome turnover during heat shock

Project description:Heat shock rapidly induces expression of a small set of genes while globally repressing transcription, making it an attractive system for studying alterations in the chromatin landscape that accompany changes in gene regulation. We have characterized these changes using low-salt extraction of intact micrococcal nuclease (MNase)-treated Drosophila S2 cell nuclei to determine the active nucleosomal and subnucleosomal chromatin landscapes. The low-salt-soluble fraction corresponds to classical "active" chromatin and includes distinct size fractions of MNase-protected particles that can be precisely mapped by paired-end sequencing. After heat shock, the distribution of low-salt-soluble nucleosomes showed an overall reduction over gene bodies, consistent with down-regulation of transcription. No global changes were detected in the subnucleosomal landscape upstream of transcriptional start sites, however, we observed a genome-wide reduction of paused RNA Polymerase II from the active chromatin fraction. Furthermore, nucleosome turnover decreased within gene bodies in a pattern similar to that observed when transcription elongation was artificially inhibited. These observations suggest that reduced Pol II affinity and processivity is the dominant nuclear mechanism for genome-wide repression during heat shock. Our ability to precisely map both nucleosomal and subnucleosomal particles directly from classical active chromatin extracts to assay changes in the chromatin landscape provides a simple general strategy for epigenome characterization. High-throughput sequencing (Illumina HiSeq 2000) We have characterized changes to the active nucleosomal and subnucleosomal landscape during the heat shock response in Drosophila cells by genome-wide profiling of low-salt extracted micrococcal nuclease-treated nuclei, paused RNA Polymerase II and CATCH-IT nucleosome turnover.

Structure of nucleosome-bound human PBAF complex

Project description:BAF and PBAF are mammalian SWI/SNF family chromatin remodeling complexes that possess multiple histone/DNA-binding subunits and create nucleosome-depleted/free regions for transcription activation. Despite previous structural studies and recent advance of SWI/SNF family complexes, it remains incompletely understood how PBAF-nucleosome complex is organized. Here we determined structure of 13-subunit human PBAF in complex with acetylated nucleosome in ADP-BeF3-bound state. Four PBAF-specific subunits work together with nine BAF/PBAF-shared subunits to generate PBAF-specific modular organization, distinct from that of BAF at various regions. PBAF-nucleosome structure reveals six histone-binding domains and four DNA-binding domains/modules, the majority of which directly bind histone/DNA. This multivalent nucleosome-binding pattern, not observed in previous studies, suggests that PBAF may integrate comprehensive chromatin information to target genomic loci for function. Our study reveals molecular organization of subunits and histone/DNA-binding domains/modules in PBAF-nucleosome complex and provides structural insights into PBAF-mediated nucleosome association complimentary to the recently reported PBAF-nucleosome structure.
