Project description:The human silencing hub (HUSH) complex is a transcription-dependent, epigenetic repressor complex that provides a genome-wide immunosurveillance system for the recognition and silencing of newly-integrated retroelements. The core HUSH complex of TASOR, MPP8 and Periphilin, represses these retroelements through SETDB1-mediated H3K9me3 deposition and MORC2-dependent chromatin compaction. HUSH-dependent silencing is RNA-mediated, yet no HUSH components encode any RNA-binding domain. Here we used an unbiased approach to identify which HUSH component was able to bind RNA and determine whether RNA-binding was essential for HUSH function. We identify Periphilin as the major RNA-binding component of the HUSH complex and show that Periphilin’s N-terminal domain is essential for both RNA binding and HUSH function. Periphilin binding to RNA was independent of its interaction with TASOR or MPP8, as its N-terminal domain was sufficient for RNA targeting. The artificial tethering of Periphilin, to a HUSH-insensitive, nascent transcript, enabled the HUSH-dependent silencing of the transcript. This tethering of Periphilin allowed the RNA-binding region of Periphilin to be removed such that only its C-terminal domain was required, for oligomerisation and interaction with TASOR. We therefore show that Periphilin is the predominant RNA-binding protein of the HUSH complex and this RNA-binding is essential for HUSH activity.

Project description:The HUSH complex preserves genome integrity through the epigenetic repression of invasive genetic elements. However, despite our understanding of HUSH as an obligate complex of three subunits, only loss of MPP8 or Periphilin, but not TASOR, triggers interferon signaling following derepression of endogenous retroelements. Here we resolve this paradox by characterising a second HUSH complex which shares MPP8 and Periphilin but assembles around TASOR2, an uncharacterized paralog of TASOR. Whereas HUSH represses LINE-1 retroelements marked by the repressive histone modification H3K9me3, HUSH2 is recruited by the transcription factor IRF2 to repress interferon-stimulated genes. Mechanistically, HUSH-mediated retroelement silencing sequesters the limited pool of the shared subunits MPP8 and Periphilin, preventing TASOR2 from forming HUSH2 complexes and hence relieving the HUSH2-mediated repression of interferon-stimulated genes. Thus, competition between two HUSH complexes intertwines retroelement silencing with the induction of an immune response, coupling epigenetic and immune aspects of genome defense.

Project description:The Human Silencing Hub (HUSH) complex constituted of TASOR, MPP8 and Periphilin is involved in the spreading of H3K9me3 repressive marks across genes and transgenes such as ZNF encoding genes, ribosomal DNAs, retroelements, including LINE-1 elements, or the integrated HIV provirus. The deposit of these repressive marks leads to heterochromatin formation and inhibits gene expression. The precise mechanisms of HUSH-mediated silencing are still poorly understood, but HUSH presents structural homology with the RNA-induced transcriptional silencing (RITS) complex found in fission yeast. During transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II, RITS recruits a TRAMP-like RNA degradation complex composed of CNOT1 partners, MTR4 and the exosome, to ultimately repress gene expression via H3K9me3 deposit. Here, we show that TASOR depletion or HIV-2 Vpx expression, which induces TASOR degradation, increases the accumulation of transcripts derived from the HIV-1 LTR promoter at a post-transcriptional level. Furthermore, using a yeast 2-hybrid screen, we identified new TASOR partners involved in RNA metabolism including the RNA deadenylase CCR4-NOT complex scaffold CNOT1. TASOR and CNOT1 interact in vivo and synergistically repress HIV expression from its LTR. Similar to the RITS complex, we show that TASOR interacts and cooperates with MTR4 and the exosome. We also highlight an interaction between TASOR and RNA Polymerase II, predominantly under its elongating state, and between TASOR and some HUSH-targeted nascent transcripts. Finally, we show that TASOR overexpression facilitates the association of the aforementioned RNA degradation proteins with RNA polymerase II and is detected at transcriptional centers. Altogether, we propose that HUSH operates at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels to repress HIV proviral gene expression.
