REF6 recognizes specific DNA sequence to regulate H3K27me3 demethylation and organ boundary formation

ABSTRACT: RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING 6 (REF6, also known as JMJ12) counteracts Polycomb mediated gene silencing through demethylating histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in Arabidopsis. Genome-wide analysis has demonstrated that REF6 dependent H3K37me3 demethylation occurs on hundreds of genes. However, how these genes are selectively subjected to H3K27me3 demethylation remains elusive. Here we show that a tandem array of four Cys2-His2 zinc finger domains (C2H2-ZF) at REF6 C-terminus are essential for REF6 function. Mechanistically, we find that C2H2-ZF cluster can directly recognize a specific DNA sequence motif, and is essential for binding of REF6 to its targets. In addition, we demonstrate that CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON 1 (CUC1) and CUC3 harbor such sequence motif and are direct targets of REF6; while their close homolog, CUC2, without such binding motif is not bound by REF6. Furthermore, REF6 is essential for proper H3K27me3 level at CUC1 locus, CUC1 activation and cotyledon separation. Collectively, our study reveals not only a novel mechanism of H3K27me3 demethylase genome targeting to counteract Polycomb silencing, but also a new function of H3K27me3 demethylation in organ boundary formation.

All seeds, except for H3K9me2 ChIP-seq, were grown on 1/2MS plate at 23Â°C under long day condition. 12 day after germination (12DAG), whole seedling were harvested for ChIP-seq. anti-HA ChIP-seq were performed with three samples: Col (WT,Negtive control), REF6-HA(REF6p::REF6-HA ref6-1),REF6-ZnF-HA(REF6p::REF6-ZnF-HA ref6-1). anti-H3K27me3 ChIP-seq were performed with four samples: Col (WT), ref6-1 (mutant), REF6-HA(REF6p::REF6-HA ref6-1),REF6-ZnF-HA(REF6p::REF6-ZnF-HA ref6-1).For H3K9me2 ChIP-seq, plants were grown in soil at 23Â°C under long day condition. Aerial part of plants were harvested for ChIP-seq 28d after germination.

Genome-wide profiling of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeler BRAHMA and Histone H3 lysine demethyalse Relative of Early Flowering 6 (REF6) in Arabidopsis [RNA-Seq]

Project description:BRAHMA (BRM) is a conserved SWI/SNF-type chromatin remodeling ATPase implicated in many key nuclear events. Histone H3 Lysine 27 (H3K27) demethylases specifically remove the repressive histone mark, trimethylation of H3K27 (H3K27me3). Both proteins are thought to play active roles in regulating gene activities at the chromatin level, but their genome-wide coordination remains to be determined. In Arabidopsis thaliana, RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING 6 (REF6, also known as JMJ12) is the first identified plant H3K27 demethylase. Here, genome-wide analyses revealed that REF6 targets to thousands of genes across the Arabidopsis genome and co-localizes with BRM at more than 1,000 genes, many of which are genes involved in response to various stimuli, especially plant hormones. Loss of REF6 activity results in decreased BRM occupancy at hundreds of BRM-REF6 co-targets, indicating that REF6 is required for the recruitment of BRM to chromatin. Further, REF6 targets to genomic loci that contains the CTCTGTTT motif in vivo through its C2H2 zinger finger domains. Consistently, the two proteins activate the expression of a set of common genes in plant cells. Thus, this work demonstrates a genome-wide coordination between an H3K27me3 demethylase and a chromatin remodelling protein. Examination of global RNA expression in 14-day-old wt, brm-1, ref6-1 and brm-1 ref6-1 seedlings. Three biological replicates for each one.

Arabidopsis TRB proteins function in H3K4me3 demethylation by recruiting JMJ14

Project description:Arabidopsis telomeric repeat binding factors (TRBs) can bind telomeric DNA sequences to protect telomeres from degradation. TRBs can also recruit Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) to deposit tri-methylation of H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) over certain target loci. Here, we demonstrate that TRBs also associate and colocalize with JUMONJI14 (JMJ14) and trigger H3K4me3 demethylation at some loci. The trb1/2/3 triple mutant and the jmj14-1 mutant show an increased level of H3K4me3 over TRB and JMJ14 binding sites, resulting in up-regulation of their target genes. Furthermore, tethering TRBs to the promoter region of genes with an artificial zinc finger (TRB-ZF) successfully triggers target gene silencing, as well as H3K27me3 deposition, and H3K4me3 removal. Interestingly, JMJ14 is predominantly recruited to ZF off-target sites with low levels of H3K4me3, which is accompanied with TRB-ZFs triggered H3K4me3 removal at these loci. These results suggest that TRB proteins coordinate PRC2 and JMJ14 activities to repress target genes via H3K27me3 deposition and H3K4me3 removal.

A REF6-dependent H3K27me3-depleted state facilitates gene activation during germination in Arabidopsis [RNA-Seq]

Project description:We report transcriptome changes and genome-wide dynamics of H3K27me3 during seed germination in Arabidopdsis, and investigate the impact of REF6-mediated H3K27 demethylation on germination. Compared with transcriptome changes, we discover delayed H3K27me3 reprogramming closely associated with the embryo to vegetative cell fate switch. REF6-mediated H3K27 demethylation promotes germination but does not significantly contribute to H3K27me3 dynamics during germination, but rather stably establishes an H3K27me3-depleted state permissive to transcription. By analyzing REF6 genomic binding, we show that it is absent from mature embryo chromatin and gradually establishes occupancy during the course of germination to counteract increased PRC2 activity.

The C2H2-ZF transcription factor Zfp335 recognizes two consensus motifs using separate zinc finger arrays

Project description:The complexities of DNA recognition by transcription factors with multiple Cys2-His2 zinc fingers (C2H2-ZFs) remain poorly studied. We previously reported a mutation (R1092W) in the C2H2-ZF transcription factor Zfp335 which led to selective loss of binding at a subset of targets, although the basis for this was unclear. We show that Zfp335 binds DNA and drives transcription via recognition of two distinct consensus motifs by separate ZF clusters, and identify the specific motif interaction disrupted by R1092W. Our work presents Zfp335 as a model for understanding how C2H2-ZF TFs may utilize multiple recognition motifs to control gene expression.

DNA methylation prevents REF6 binding in Arabidopsis

Project description:RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING 6 (REF6/JMJ12), a Jumonji C (JmjC)-domain-containing histone demethylase, directly recognizes the CTCTGYTY motif by its zinc-finger domains to demethylate H3K27me3 at specific loci in Arabidopsis genome. Here we show that the recognition of CTCTGYTY motif by REF6 is prevented by DNA methylation. REF6 prefers to bind DNA hypo-methylated regions in vivo. DNA cytosine-methylation decreases REF6 binding affinity in vitro, and the crystal structure of ZnF-clusters showed that REF6 prefers unmethylated DNA sequences. Furthermore, REF6 displayed ectopic binding on multiple new target loci in drm1 drm2 cmt2 cmt3 (ddcc) quadruple mutants, where non-CG methylation was largely diminished. Collectively, this study reveals a novel targeting crosstalk between an H3K27me3 demethylase and DNA methylation.
