RNA Polymerase II coordinates histone deacetylation at active promoters

ABSTRACT: Nucleosomes at actively transcribed promoters have specific histone post-transcriptional modifications and histone variants. These features are thought to contribute to the formation and maintenance of a permissive chromatin environment. Recent reports have drawn conflicting conclusions about whether these histone modifications depend on transcription. We used triptolide to inhibit transcription initiation and degrade RNA Polymerase II and interrogated the effect on histone modifications. Transcription initiation was dispensable for de novo and steady-state histone acetylation at transcription start sites (TSSs) and enhancers. However, at steady state, blocking transcription initiation increased the levels of histone acetylation and H2AZ incorporation at active TSSs. These results demonstrate that deposition of specific histone modifications at TSSs is not dependent on transcription and that transcription limits the maintenance of these marks.

Histone acetyltransferase 2 links H4 acetylation, H2A.Z deposition and transcription start site-choice in African trypanosomes

Project description:Both, acetylation of histones and of histone variant H2A.Z are conserved features of eukaryotic transcription start sites (TSSs) and both features appear to be critical for correct transcription initiation. However, complex patterns of transcriptional regulation have complicated the establishment of functional links between histone acetylation, H2A.Z deposition and their importance in transcription regulation. To elucidate these links, we took advantage of the unusual genome organization in Trypanosoma brucei, a highly divergent eukaryote. In T. brucei genes are organized in long polycistronic transcription units, drastically reducing the sites of transcription initiation. Employing a highly sensitive and quantitative mass-spectrometry-based approach, we quantified the genome-wide histone acetylation and methylation pattern and identified various acetyl and methyl marks exclusively enriched at TSSs In addition, we show that deletion of histone acetyltransferase 2 results in a loss of H4 acetylation at TSSs, a loss of H2A.Z deposition at TSSs and a shift in the sites of transcription initiation. Combined, our findings demonstrate an evolutionary conserved link between histone H4 acetylation, H2A.Z deposition and RNA transcription initiation.

A unidirectional histone code in bidirectional promoters across cell types

Project description:Recent studies indicate that thousands of genes are expressed from bidirectional promoters (BDPs). Gene regulation at BDPs is poorly understood, in particular how the cell is able to regulate them differently. Here we investigate the effect of histone Modifications in BDP regulation. In this study, we model the gene activity using different gene expression assays, such as RNA-Seq, GRO-cap, and CAGE around the BDP transcription start sites (TSSs) using different histone modifications in various cell types. We develop a new statistical approach that links histone modifications to gene expression at BDPs. It improves over previous methods, because it is able to capture spatial dependencies of histone modifications along a promoter and leads to more interpretable results. We predict a general histone code that is independent of transcript orientation, cell type, and promoter configuration. The histone code at BDPs reveals that promoters are regulated unidirectionally, such that the majority of histone marks associated with gene expression occur downstream of the gene's TSS. By contrasting associations of histone marks with steady-state levels of capped RNAs in CAGE and nascent capped RNAs in GRO-cap, we show which histone marks have a preference for initiating polymerases and actively elongating polymerases. Using single-cell data we show that the bidirectional histone signal of activating marks is often due averaging of a heterogeneous cell population. Our results have implications for other experiments where the relationship between histone modification and gene initiation or gene elongation is investigated on a genome-wide scale.

The interactome of site-specifically acetylated linker histone H1

Project description:Linker histone H1 plays a key role in chromatin organization and maintenance, however, our knowledge of the regulation of H1 functions by its posttranslational modifications (PTMs) is very limited. In this study, we report on the generation of homogeneously and site-specifically mono- and di-acetylated H1 (H1 Ac) using genetic code expansion. We used these modified histones to identify and comprehensively characterize the acetylation-dependent cellular interactome for linker histone H1 and show that site-specific acetylation results in overlapping, but distinct groups of interacting partners. Intriguingly, H1 acetylation-specific interactors comprise translational initiation factors and are involved in transcriptional regulation, suggesting that acetylation of H1 may indeed act as a regulator of the linker histone H1 by modulation of protein-protein interactions.

Analysis of transcription start sites from nascent RNA identifies a unified architecture of initiation at mammalian promoters and enhancers (GRO-seq)

Project description:Despite the conventional distinction between promoters and enhancers, they share many features in mammals, including divergent transcription and similar modes of transcription factor (TF) binding. Here, we examine the architecture of transcription initiation genome-wide through comprehensive mapping of transcription start sites (TSSs) in human lymphoblastoid B-cell (GM12878) and chronic myelogenous leukemic (K562) tier 1, ENCODE cell lines using a nuclear run-on protocol called GRO-cap. This method captures TSSs for both stable and unstable transcripts, thus allowing us to conduct detailed comparisons between thousands of promoters and enhancers in human cells. These analyses reveal a common architecture of initiation at both promoters and enhancers, including tightly spaced (110 bp) divergent initiation that features similar frequencies of core-promoter sequence elements, highly-positioned flanking nucleosomes, and two modes of TF binding. Transcript elongation stability, a feature determined after transcription initiation, provides a more fundamental distinction between promoters and enhancers than the relative abundance of histone modifications and the presence of TFs or coactivators. These results support a unified model of transcription initiation at both promoters and enhancers.

High resolution chromatin dynamics during a yeast stress response

Project description:Covalent histone modifications are highly conserved and play multiple roles in eukaryotic transcription regulation. Because of extensive crosstalk between transcriptional processes and histone modifications, steady state observations are insufficient to fully disentangle histone modification networks. As transient perturbation of feedback mechanisms can reveal network structure, we mapped 26 histone modifications genome-wide over a time course following dramatic transcriptional reprogramming – response to diamide stress in yeast. Interestingly, while we observed limited combinatorial complexity in steady-state histone modification patterns, consistent with previous studies, the combinatorial complexity of histone modification space increased modestly during the stress response, resulting from roughly 3% of nucleosomes transiently populating rare histone modification states. We show that most of these short-lived histone mark combinations result from differences in histone modification dynamics that transiently uncouple highly correlated marks, with slow histone methylation changes often lagging the more rapid changes in acetylation. Together, our results provide the first detailed view of an epigenome in transition.

Control of Foxp3 induction and maintenance by sequential histone acetylation and DNA demethylation [ChIP,CutRun]

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells play crucial roles in suppressing deleterious immune response. Here, we investigate how mechanistically Treg cells are induced and stabilized via transcriptional regulation of Treg lineage–specifying factor Foxp3. Acetylation of histone tails in the Foxp3 locus is induced during Treg cell development and required in cis for the initiation of Foxp3 transcription. Upon induction, histone acetylation signal largely acts in trans to sustain Foxp3 transcription via multiple factors. Subsequently, Tet-mediated DNA demethylation of Foxp3 cis-regulatory elements particularly enhancer CNS2 increases chromatin accessibility and protein binding, drastically stabilizing Foxp3 transcription, although histone acetylation still regulates global gene expression. These processes transform stochastic Treg cell induction into a stable cell fate, with the former sensitive and latter resistant to genetic and environmental perturbations. Thus, our study reveals distinct roles of histone acetylation in Foxp3 induction and maintenance, reflecting sequential mechanical switches governing Treg cell lineage specification.
