SKP1A-mediated degradation of PRC2 triggers activation of Polycomb-silenced genes : Gene expression 1

ABSTRACT: Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are evolutionarily conserved repressors of developmental genes. Paradoxically, the same PcG proteins also play roles in gene activation via mechanisms that are not yet fully understood. Here, we found that S-phase kinase-associated protein 1A (SKP1A), an essential factor of SCF (SKP1A/CULLIN1/F-box) ubiquitin ligases and a subunit of the PCGF1 (Polycomb group RING finger protein 1) component of Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PCGF1-PRC1), mediates the link between PcG-dependent gene regulation and ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation. By using differentiating mouse embryonic stem cells, we found that SKP1A removes EED, a core component of Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) that is bound to PcG target gene promoters, via proteasomal degradation, and it thereby sensitises these genes for subsequent activation. Furthermore, we show that SKP1A removes EED from the Meis2 promoter in the midbrain of developing mouse embryos, leading to Meis2 gene expression. In summary, we reveal here a previously unknown role of SKP1A in activating PcG-target genes via the proteasomal degradation of PRC2. This implies that SKP1A-containing PCGF1-PRC1 may confer reversibility on PcG-mediated gene silencing for robust spatiotemporal regulation of target genes.

Variant PCGF1-PRC1 links PRC2 recruitment with induced transcriptional inactivation at target genes [RNA-seq]

Project description:Polycomb repressive complexes-1 and -2 (PRC1 and 2), silence developmental genes in spatiotemporally regulated manner during metazoan embryogenesis. How PcG proteins contribute to down-regulation of target genes upon differentiation, however, remains elusive. Here, by differentiating embryonic stem cells into embryoid bodies, we reveal a crucial role of a PCGF1 (Polycomb group RING finger protein 1)-containing variant PRC1 complex (PCGF1-PRC1) to facilitate induced down-regulation of a group of genes. Binding of PCGF1-PRC1 results in down-regulation of transcriptional activity, followed by Histone H2AK119 mono-ubiquitination (H2AK119ub1) and subsequent recruitment of PRC2, to initiate PcG-repressive domain formation. Based on these findings, we propose that PCGF1-PRC1 mediates establishment of PcG-repressive domains at target genes during differentiation.

Transcription profiling of mouse embryonic stem cells FROM Eed knockout vs control

Project description:The Polycomb group (PcG) gene products mediate heritable silencing of developmental regulators in metazoans, participating in one of two distinct multimeric protein complexes, the Polycomb repressive complexes-1 (PRC1) and -2 (PRC2). PRC2 catalyses trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27) which in turn is thought to provide a recruitment site for PRC1. Recent studies demonstrate that mono-ubiquitylation of histone H2A at lysine 119 is important in PcG mediated silencing with the core PRC1 component Ring1A/B functioning as the E3 ligase8. PRC2 has been shown to share target genes with the core transcription network to maintain embryonic stem (ES) cells including Oct4 and Nanog. Here we identify an essential role for PRC1 in repressing developmental regulators in ES cells, and thereby in maintaining ES cell pluripotency. A significant proportion of the PRC1 target genes are also repressed by Oct4. We demonstrate that engagement of PRC1 and PRC2 at target genes is Oct4-dependent and moreover that Ring1B interacts with Oct4. Collectively these results show that PcG complexes are instrumental in Oct4-dependent repression required to maintain pluripotency of ES cells. This study provides a first functional link between a core ES cell regulator and global epigenetic regulation of the genome. Experiment Overall Design: Eed is a protein included in PRC2 (Polycomb repressor complex). Experiment Overall Design: We generated constitutive Eed KO mouse ES cells and observed gene expression using Affymetrix MOE430.2 microarray. Experiment Overall Design: These results were compared with other KO cells of PRC1 proteins (Ring1A, Ring1B) and other proteins in our study.

The Central Role of EED in the Orchestration of Polycomb Group Complexes

Project description:Polycomb Repressive Complexes 1 and 2 (PRC1 and 2) play a critical role in the epigenetic regulation of transcription during cellular differentiation, stem cell pluripotency, and neoplastic progression1-3. Here we show that the Polycomb group protein EED, a core component of PRC2, physically interacts with and functions as part of the PRC1 complex. Components of PRC1 and PRC2 compete for EED binding. EED functions to recruit PRC1 to H3K27me3 loci and enhances PRC1 mediated H2A ubiquitin E3 ligase activity. Taken together, we uncover the integral role of EED as an epigenetic exchange factor coordinating the activities of PRC1 and 2.

Two distinct functional axes of positive feedback-enforced PRC2 recruitment in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) plays an essential role in development by catalysing trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3), resulting in gene repression. PRC2 consists of two sub-complexes, PRC2.1 and PRC2.2, in which the PRC2 core associates with distinct ancillary subunits such as MTF2 and JARID2, respectively. Both MTF2, present in PRC2.1, and JARID2, present in PRC2.2, play a role in core PRC2 recruitment to target genes in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). However, it remains unclear how these distinct sub-complexes cooperate to establish H3K27me3 domains. Here, we combine a range of Polycomb mutant mESCs with chemical inhibition of PRC2 catalytic activity, to systematically dissect their relative contributions to PRC2 binding to target loci. We find that PRC2.1 and PRC2.2 mediate two distinct paths for recruitment, with mutually reinforced binding. Part of the cross-talk between PRC2.1 and PRC2.2 occurs via their catalytic product H3K27me3, which is bound by the PRC2 core-subunit EED, thereby mediating a positive feedback. Strikingly, removal of either JARID2 or H3K27me3 only has a minor effect on PRC2 recruitment, whereas their combined ablation largely attenuates PRC2 recruitment. This strongly suggests an unexpected redundancy between JARID2 and EED-H3K27me3-mediated recruitment of PRC2. Furthermore, we demonstrate that all core PRC2 recruitment occurs through the combined action of MTF2-mediated recruitment of PRC2.1 to DNA and PRC1-mediated recruitment of JARID2-containing PRC2.2. Both axes of binding are supported by EED-H3K27me3 positive feedback, but to a different degree. Finally, we provide evidence that PRC1 and PRC2 mutually reinforce reciprocal binding. Together, these data disentangle the interdependent and cooperative interactions between Polycomb complexes that are important to establish Polycomb repression at target sites.
