A genome wide role for CHD remodeling factors and Nap1 in nucleosome disassembly

ABSTRACT: Chromatin remodeling factors and histone chaperones were previously shown to cooperatively affect nucleosome assembly and disassembly processes in vitro. Here we show that S. pombe CHD remodellers, Hrp1 and Hrp3 physically interact with the histone chaperone Nap1. Genome wide analysis of Hrp1, Hrp3 and Nap1 occupancy, combined with nucleosome density measurements in respective mutants revealed that the CHD factors and Nap1 co-localized in particular to promoter regions where they remove nucleosomes near the transcriptional start site. Hrp1 and Hrp3 also regulate nucleosome density in coding regions where they have redundant roles to stimulate transcription. Previously, DNA replication dependent and independent nucleosome disassembly processes have been described. We found that nucleosome density increased in the hrp1 mutant in the absence of DNA replication. Finally, regions where nucleosome density increased in hrp1, hrp3 and nap1 mutants also showed nucleosome density and histone modification changes in HDAC and HAT mutants. Thus, this study revealed an important in vivo role for CHD remodellers and Nap1 in nucleosome disassembly at promoters and coding regions, which are linked to changes in histone acetylation.

Project description:Proper chromatin organization is essential for defining transcription units and maintaining genomic integrity in eukaryotes. Mutations affecting the chromatin structure can lead to increased cryptic transcription and genomic instability. In this study we found that deletion of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Chd1-type chromatin remodelers, hrp1 and hrp3, causes strong, genome-wide accumulation of antisense transcripts, while the amount of coding mRNA transcripts is mostly unaffected. Nucleosome mapping revealed a specific role for Chd1-remodelers in the positioning of nucleosomes in gene coding regions. While the arrangement of nucleosomes in promoter regions was similar to WT, nucleosome organization within coding regions was remarkably irregular in hrp1M-bM-^HM-^Fhrp3M-bM-^HM-^F strain. We extended our analysis to other mutations associated with enhanced cryptic transcription activity, such as set2M-bM-^HM-^F, alp13M-bM-^HM-^F, and FACT complex subunit pob3M-bM-^HM-^F. While nucleosomes were severely depleted in the pob3M-bM-^HM-^F strain, nucleosome positioning was less affected. In sharp contrast, nucleosome organization in the alp13M-bM-^HM-^F and set2M-bM-^HM-^F strains was indistinguishable from WT. These data indicate multiple mechanisms in the repression of cryptic promoter activity in eukaryotic cells. Genome-wide profiling of H3K9/K14 acetylation Genome-wide expression analysis of either Alp13-, Set2-, Hrp3 or Hrp1 and Hrp3-deficient cells Genome-wide expression analysis of either Hrp1, Hrp3, or Hrp1 and Hrp3-deficient cells Nucleosome mapping experiments ChIP for the detection of the genome-wide acetylation profile of H3K9/K14 was performed for a wildtype strain and the deletion strains of Set2, Alp13 and the double knock-out of Hrp1 and Hrp3. Each experiment was performed twice in biological replicates All experiments were performed twice in biological replicates, except for the expression array of set2M-NM-^T. The replicates of hrp3M-NM-^T and hrp1M-NM-^Thrp3M-NM-^T were performed with a slightly different array design All experiments were performed twice in biological replicates. The replicates of hrp3M-NM-^T and hrp1M-NM-^Thrp3M-NM-^T were performed with a slightly different array design MNase treated sample were comparatively hybridized with genomic DNA of corresponding strain, WT, hrp1d hrp3d, pob3d in biological duplicates, set2d, alp13d, mit1d, hrp1d, hrp3d analysis was performed once
