Genome organization regulates nuclear pore complex formation and promotes differentiation during Drosophila oogenesis [RNA-Seq2]

ABSTRACT: Genome organization can regulate gene expression and promote cell fate transitions. The differentiation of germline stem cells (GSCs) to oocytes in Drosophila involves changes in genome organization mediated by heterochromatin and the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Heterochromatin represses germ-cell genes during differentiation and NPCs anchor these silenced genes to the nuclear periphery, maintaining silencing to allow for oocyte development. Surprisingly, we find that genome organization also contributes to NPC formation, mediated by the transcription factor Stonewall (Stwl). As GSCs differentiate, Stwl accumulates at boundaries between silenced and active gene compartments. Stwl at these boundaries plays a pivotal role in transitioning germ-cell genes into a silenced state and activating a group of oocyte genes and Nucleoporins (Nups). The upregulation of these Nups during differentiation is crucial for NPC formation and further genome organization. Thus, crosstalk between genome architecture and NPCs is essential for successful cell fate transitions.

A feedback loop between heterochromatin and the nucleopore complex controls germ-cell to oocyte transition during Drosophila oogenesis [mRNA-Seq]

Project description:Germ cells differentiate into oocytes that become totipotent upon fertilization. How the highly specialized oocyte acquires this distinct cell fate is poorly understood. During Drosophila oogenesis, H3K9me3 histone methyltransferase SETDB1 translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus of germ cells concurrent with oocyte specification. Here, we discovered that nuclear SETDB1 is required to silence a cohort of differentiation-promoting genes by mediating their heterochromatinization. Intriguingly, SETDB1 is also required for the upregulation of 18 of the ~30 nucleoporins (Nups) that comprise the nucleopore complex (NPC). NPCs in turn anchor SETDB1-dependent heterochromatin at the nuclear periphery to maintain H3K9me3 and gene silencing in the egg chambers. Aberrant gene expression due to loss of SETDB1 or Nups results in loss of oocyte identity, cell death and sterility. Thus, a feedback loop between heterochromatin and NPCs promotes transcriptional reprogramming at the onset of oocyte specification that is critical to establish oocyte identity.

Distinct Basket Nucleoporins roles in Nuclear Pore Function and Gene Expression

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are important for cellular functions beyond nucleocytoplasmic trafficking, including genome organization and gene expression. This multi-faceted nature and the slow turnover of NPC components complicates investigations of how individual nucleoporins act in these diverse processes. To address this question, we used an Auxin-Induced Degron (AID) system to distinguish roles of basket nucleoporins Nup153, Nup50 and Tpr. Here, we provide MS data for the Nuclear Pore-enriched fraction of human DLD-1 cells, expressing CRISPR-engeneered degron, fused with the endogenous locus of corresponding basket NUPs, in the absence or presence of Auxin.

Karyopherin enrichment and compensation fortifies the nuclear pore complex against nucleocytoplasmic leakage

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) discriminate non-specific macromolecules from importin and exportin receptors, collectively termed karyopherins (Kaps), that mediate nucleocytoplasmic transport. This selective barrier function is attributed to the behavior of intrinsically disordered phenylalanine-glycine nucleoporins (FG Nups) that guard the NPC channel. However, NPCs in vivo are typically enriched with different Kaps, and how they impact on the NPC barrier remains unknown. Here, we show that two major Kaps, importinβ1/karyopherinβ1 (Kapβ1) and exportin 1/chromosomal maintenance 1 (CRM1) are required to fortify NPC barrier function in vivo. Their enrichment at the NPC is sustained by promiscuous binding interactions with the FG Nups resulting in a compensatory mechanism that is constrained by their respective cellular abundances and different binding kinetics as evidenced for another Kap, Importin-5. Hence, Kapβ1 and CRM1 engage in a balancing act to reinforce NPC barrier function. Consequently, NPC malfunction and nucleocytoplasmic leakage result from poor Kap enrichment.

A role for the nucleoporin Nup170p in chromatin structure and gene silencing

Project description:Embedded in the nuclear envelope, nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) not only regulate nuclear transport, but also interface with both transcriptionally active euchromatin and largely silenced heterochromatin, as well as the boundaries between these regions. It is unclear what functional role NPCs play in establishing or maintaining these distinct chromatin domains. Here we report that the yeast NPC protein Nup170p interacts with specific regions of the genome containing ribosomal protein and subtelomeric genes. At these locations, Nup170p functions to establish normal nucleosome positioning and as a repressor of transcription. We show that the function of Nup170p in subtelomeric gene silencing is linked to its association with the RSC chromatin-remodeling complex and the silencing factor Sir4p, and that the binding of Nup170p and Sir4p to subtelomeric chromatin is cooperative and necessary for the association of telomeres with the nuclear envelope. Our results establish the NPC as an active participant in the formation of peripheral heterochromatin. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. Refer to individual Series

Transcription profiling of Drosophila ovaries from bam mutant and stwl bam double mutant females

Project description:Abstract: During Drosophila oogenesis, germline stem cell (GSC) identity is maintained largely by preventing the expression of factors that promote differentiation. This is accomplished via the activity of several genes acting either in the GSC or its niche. The translational repressors, Nanos and Pumilio, act in GSCs to prevent differentiation, likely by inhibiting translation of early differentiation factors, while niche signals prevent differentiation by silencing transcription of the differentiation factor Bam. We have found that the DNA-associated protein Stonewall (Stwl) is also required for GSC maintenance. stwl is required cell-autonomously; clones of stwl- germ cells were lost by differentiation, and ectopic Stwl caused an expansion of GSCs. stwl mutants acted as Suppressors of Variegation, indicating stwl normally acts in chromatin-dependent gene repression. In contrast to several previously described GSC maintenance factors, Stwl likely functions epigenetically to prevent GSC differentiation. Stwl-dependent transcriptional repression does not target bam, but rather Stwl represses the expression of many genes, including those that may be targeted by Nanos/Pumilio translational inhibition. Experiment Overall Design: Genetic variation comparison between germ cells of Drosophila ovaries from bam mutant and stwl bam double mutant females. Six total samples were analyzed, with each genotype performed in triplicates.

Selective autophagy degrades nuclear pore complexes

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are giant cylindrical structures embedded into the nuclear envelope and mediate nucleocytoplasmic exchange. NPC longevity has been linked to aging but since they appear to rarely turn over, the underlying mechanisms remain understudied. Here, we show that upon nitrogen starvation and genetic interference with NPC architecture, Nups are rapidly degraded in budding yeast. We demonstrate that NPC turnover involves 25 vacuolar proteases and the core autophagic machinery. Autophagic degradation is mediated by the cytoplasmically exposed Nup159 that serves as intrinsic cargo receptor and directly binds to the autophagic marker protein Atg8. The inducible manner of this mechanism might explain why NPCs are long-lived under specific conditions
