Project description:To study the epigenetic regulation during neuroectoderm specification process, we generated in-depth maps of nucleosome and histone modifications.We found that the depletion of nucleosome marked with H2A.Z in promoter regions contributes to the activation of key neuroectoderm related genes as providing open chromatin state for Pol II binding. Meanwhile, HMs undergo active remodeling with recruiting key transcription factors.So our study provided a full view on the transcriptional regulation of epigenome during neuroectoderm specification.

Project description:Histone acetylation and deposition of H2A.Z variant are integral aspects of active transcrip-tion. In Drosophila, the single DOMINO chromatin regulator complex is thought to combine both activities via an unknown mechanism. Here we show that alternative isoforms of the DOMINO nucleosome remodeling ATPase, DOM-A and DOM-B, directly specify two distinct multi-subunit complexes. Both complexes are necessary for transcriptional regulation but through different mechanisms. The DOM-B complex incorporates H2A.V (the fly ortholog of H2A.Z) genome-wide in an ATP-dependent manner, like the yeast SWR1 complex. The DOM-A complex, instead, functions as an ATP-independent histone acetyltransferase com-plex similar to the yeast NuA4, targeting lysine 12 of histone H4. Our work provides an in-structive example of how different evolutionary strategies lead to similar functional separation. In yeast and humans, nucleosome remodeling and histone acetyltransferase complexes orig-inate from gene duplication and paralog specification. Drosophila generates the same diversi-ty by alternative splicing of a single gene.

Project description:Heterochromatin plays a key role in gene repression, maintaining genome integrity and chromosome segregation. Fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, utilizes conserved components to direct heterochromatin formation using siRNA generated by RNA interference (RNAi) to guide a histone H3 lysine 9 methyltransferase to cognate chromatin. To identify compounds that inhibit heterochromatin formation, an in vivo phenotypic screen for loss of silencing was performed. A tester strain harbouring a silent dominant selectable kanMX reporter gene within fission yeast centromeric heterochromatin was used to screen a diverse library of chemicals. HMS-I1 and HMS-I2 were identified as compounds that reproducibly increased G418 resistance due to loss of kanMX silencing, and decreased the level of repressive H3K9 methylation on centromeric repeats. The pattern of changes induced by HMS-I1 and HMS-I2 were consistent with inhibition of the histone deacetylases (HDACs) Clr3 and/or Sir2. Chemical-genetic interactions and expression profiling indicated that both HMS-I1 and HMS-I2 affect the activity of the Clr3-containing Snf2/HDAC repressor complex (SHREC). Exposure to HMS-I1 was also found to alleviate silencing of reporter genes in an Arabidopsis transgenic plant line and a mouse cell line. HMS-I2 also disrupted reporter gene silencing in Arabidopsis. In vitro assays indicate that HMS-I1 impairs the activity of human HDAC6 and HDAC10. As HMS-I1 and HMS-I2 bear no resemblance to known inhibitors of chromatin-based activities they represent potentially novel and valuable reagents for experimental and therapeutic purposes. Our findings highlight the use of in vivo chemical screening conducted in fission yeast to identify compounds that disrupt heterochromatin across plant, fungi and animal kingdoms. 16 RNA samples: 2 replicates of WT untreated (vehicle DMSO) (KE1-A, KE2-A), HMS-I1 treated (KE1-B, KE2-B), HMS-I2 treated (KE1-C, KE2-C), and 2 additional replicates of WT (KE05_wt_1, KE10_wt_2), 4 replicates of clr2M-bM-^HM-^F (KE01_2118_1, KE06_2118_2, KE03_0080_1, KE08_0080_2) and mit1M-bM-^HM-^F (KE02_1295_1, KE07_1295_2, KE04_1278_1, KE09_1278_2).

Project description:Functional interactions between gene regulatory factors and chromatin architecture have been difficult to directly assess. Here, we use micrococcal nuclease (MNase) footprinting to probe the functions of two chromatin remodeling complexes. By simultaneously quantifying alterations in small MNase footprints over the binding sites of 30 regulatory factors in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), we provide evidence that esBAF and Mbd3/NuRD modulate the binding of several regulatory proteins. In addition, we find that nucleosome occupancy is reduced at specific loci in favor of subnucleosomes upon depletion of esBAF, including sites of histone H2A.Z localization. Consistent with these data, we demonstrate that esBAF is required for normal H2A.Z localization in ESCs, suggesting esBAF either stabilizes H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes or promotes subnucleosome to nucleosome conversion by facilitating H2A.Z deposition. Therefore, integrative examination of MNase footprints reveals insights into nucleosome dynamics and functional interactions between chromatin structure and key gene regulatory factors. Examine three read size footprints from MNase-Seq in EGFP KD, Mbd3 KD, and Smarca4 KD mESCs using ChIP-Seq datasets.

Project description:We report genome wide mapping of the histone variant H2A.Z during G0/G1 and mitosis in T24 bladder cancer cells. The results show that the broad enrichment pattern of H2A.Z near transcription start sites of active genes is maintained during mitosis. Furthermore, using H2A.Z localization to visualize nucleosome positioning near the start site, we see that the +1 nucleosome of active genes shifts upstream to occupy the transcription start sites during mitosis and the nucleosome depleted region is shortened. H2A.Z is also maintained on the -2 nucleosome which also shifts towrds the transcription start site during mitosis, further contributing to the shorteneing of the nucleosome depleted region.

Project description:The site-specific chromatin incorporation of eukaryotic histone variant H2A.Z is driven by the multi-component chromatin remodeling complex SWR1/SRCAP/ p400. The budding yeast SWR1 complex replaces the H2A-H2B dimer in the canonical nucleosome with the H2A.Z-H2B dimer, but the mechanism governing the directionality of H2A-to-H2A.Z exchange remains elusive. Here, we use single-molecule force spectroscopy to dissect the disassembly/ reassembly of H2A-nucleosome and H2A.Z-nucleosome. We find that the N-terminal 1-135 residues of yeast SWR1-complex-protein-2 (previously termed Swc2-Z) facilitate the disassembly of nucleosomes containing H2A but not H2A.Z. The Swc2-mediated nucleosome disassembly/reassembly requires the inherently unstable H2A-nucleosome, whose instability is conferred by three H2A α2-helix residues Gly47, Pro49 and Ile63 as they selectively weaken the structural rigidity of H2A-H2B dimer. It also requires Swc2-ZN (residues 1-37) that directly anchors to H2A-nucleosome and functions in the SWR1-catalyzed H2A.Z replacement in vitro and yeast H2A.Z deposition in vivo. Our findings providecrucial insights into how SWR1 complex discriminates between the H2A-nucleosome and H2A.Z-nucleosome, establishing a simple paradigm for the governace of unidirectional H2A.Z exchange.

Project description:Genome-wide chromatin state underlies gene expression potential and cellular function. Epigenetic features and nucleosome positioning are major factors in determining chromatin accessibility. Our study investigates how genomic localization of the histone variant H2A.Z regulates chromatin state in mouse fibroblasts. We define H2A.Z as a universal chromatin accessibility factor, and demonstrate that ANP32E antagonizes H2A.Z accumulation to restrict chromatin accessibility genome-wide. In the absence of ANP32E, H2A.Z accumulates in a hierarchical manner at promoters. H2A.Z initially localizes at the +1 nucleosome, and then if H2A.Z is already present at the +1 nucleosome position in WT, additional H2A.Z accumulates at the -1 nucleosome position. This hierarchical H2A.Z accumulation coincides with improved nucleosome positioning, heightened transcription factor footprint protection, and increased expression for neighboring genes. Thus, ANP32E dramatically influences genome-wide chromatin accessibility through refinement of H2A.Z patterns, providing a means to reprogram chromatin state and to hone gene expression levels.

Project description:The histone variant H2A.Z plays key roles in gene expression, DNA repair, and centromere function. H2A.Z deposition is controlled by SWR-C chromatin remodeling enzymes that catalyze the nucleosomal exchange of canonical H2A with H2A.Z. Here we report that acetylation of histone H3 lysine 56 (H3-K56Ac) alters the substrate specificity of SWR-C, leading to promiscuous dimer exchange where either H2A.Z or H2A can be exchanged from nucleosomes. This result is confirmed in vivo, where genome-wide analysis demonstrates widespread decreases in H2A.Z levels in yeast mutants with hyperacetylated H3K56. Our work also suggests that a conserved SWR-C subunit may function as a M-bM-^@M-^\lockM-bM-^@M-^] that prevents removal of H2A.Z from nucleosomes. Our study identifies a histone modification that regulates a chromatin remodeling reaction and provides insights into how histone variants and nucleosome turnover can be controlled by chromatin regulators.
