A cancer-associated mutation in H2A.Z decreases nucleosome stability and impairs mitotic progression

ABSTRACT: The histone variant H2A.Z is one of the most evolutionally conserved histone variants. Here, we identified a cancer-associated mutation in H2A.Z and evaluate the mutation. Structural and biochemical in vitro analyses showed that the H2A.Z mutation destabilizes nucleosome containing it. Then we applied the genetic complementation analysis to analyze cellular functions of the H2A.Z mutant. Although the H2A.Z mutant is deposited into nucleosome and rescues the lethality of H2A.Z DKO cells, the mutant does not complement mitotic defects of H2A.Z DKO cells, suggesting that stability of H2A.Z nucleosome is required for proper mitotic progression. Importantly, the H2A.Z mutant led to mitotic defects even in the presence of a larger pool of wild-type H2A.Z. Thus, it is implicated that the cancer-associated mutation appeared in an allele of the H2A.Z isoform genes would be involved in carcinogenesis through causing mitotic defects.

Genetic complementation analysis revealed distinct contributions of the N-terminal tail of H2A.Z to epigenetic regulations

Project description:The histone variant H2A.Z is one of the most evolutionally conserved histone variants. In vertebrates, two isoforms, H2A.Z.1 and H2A.Z.2, are identified and are involved in multiple epigenetic regulations. However, the role of H2A.Z in epigenetic regulations largely remains unknown especially in vertebrate. Previously, we derived tetracycline-inducible H2A.Z isofmrs double knockout (DKO) cells by using DT40 cells. With this cell, we showed that H2A.Z DKO leads to defects in mitotic progression and gene expression. To elucidate the function of H2A.Z further, we established genetic complementation system and confirmed that introducing exogenous H2A.Z complemented phenotypes of H2A.Z DKO cells. Given that acetylation of the N-terminal tail of H2A.Z reportedly contributes to significant roles in H2A.Z functions, we introduced two types of H2A.Z mutants, non-acetylable H2A.Z (5KR-H2A.Z) and chimeric H2A.Z in which its N-terminal tail is replaced with that of canonical H2A (H2A-H2A.Z), into H2A.Z DKO cells. These H2A.Z mutants complemented defects in mitotic progression. However, significant transcriptional dysregulation was observed in H2A.Z DKO cells stably expressing 5KR-H2A.Z and H2A-H2A.Z. These results suggest that the core domain and the N-terminal tail of the vertebrate H2A.Z contribute individually to mitotic progression and transcription regulation, respectively.

Multivalent binding of PWWP2A to H2A.Z-marked transcriptional active chromatin regulates mitosis and organ development [RNA-seq]

Project description:The essential histone variant H2A.Z affects various DNA-based biological processes by so far not well understood mechanisms. Using a comprehensive label-free quantitative mass spectrometry-based approach we identified the human H2A.Z nucleosome interactome providing further insights into H2A.Z’s regulatory functions. Besides histone modification writer, eraser and reader complexes we identified PWWP2A as a novel H2A.Z-nucleosome binder. PWWP2A binds unprecedented strong to chromatin through a concerted multivalent binding mode. Two internal protein regions separately allow H2A.Z-specificity and nucleosome interaction, whereas the PWWP domain mediates direct DNA binding. PWWP2A is found at euchromatic regions where it preferable binds to the H2A.Z-nucleosome-containing transcriptional start sites of transcribed genes. Cellular depletion of PWWP2A results in impaired proliferation caused by a mitotic delay likely due to deregulation of involved target genes. According with the strong cellular phenotype, knockdown of frog PWWP2A leads to severe developmental cranial facial defects arising from neural crest cell differentiation and migration problems. Together, this study identifies PWWP2A as an H2A.Z-specific multivalent chromatin binder and provides a novel link between H2A.Z, chromosome segregation and organ development.

Structural insights into histone exchange by human SRCAP complex

Project description:Histone variant H2A.Z is found at promoters and regulates transcription. The ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler SRCAP complex (SRCAP-C) promotes the replacement of canonical histone H2A-H2B dimer with H2A.Z-H2B dimer. Here, we determined structures of human SRCAP-C bound to H2A-containing nucleosome at near-atomic resolution. The SRCAP subunit integrates a 6-subunit actin-related protein (ARP) module and an ATPase-containing motor module. The ATPase-associated ARP module encircles half of the nucleosome along the DNA and may restrain net DNA translocation, a unique feature of SRCAP-C. The motor module adopts distinct nucleosome-binding modes in the apo (nucleotide-free), ADP-bound, and ADP-BeFx-bound states, suggesting that ATPase-driven movement destabilizes H2A-H2B by unwrapping the entry DNA and pulls H2A-H2B out of nucleosome through the ZNHIT1 subunit. Structure-guided chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) sequencing analysis confirmed the requirement of H2A-contacting ZNHIT1 in maintaining H2A.Z occupancy on the genome. Our study provides structural insights into the mechanism of H2A-H2A.Z exchange mediated by SRCAP-C.

Potential Roles of H2A.Z Ubiquitination

Project description:Nucleosome is a highly dynamic macromolecular complex that is assembled and remodeled by the replacement of major histone variant H2A.Z, thereby affecting nucleosome structure and stability.Here we established two cell lines stably overexpressing wild-type H2A.Z and mutant H2A.Z with ubiquitination deficiency to explore the potential effects caused by H2A.Z ubiquitination. Intriguingly, H2A.Z ubiquitination was first revealed to enhance the stability of H2A-H2A.Z heterotypic nucleosomes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled with high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-Seq) further revealed that H2A.Z ubiquitination played a crucial role in the transcriptional regulation.

The histone variant H2A.Z and chromatin remodeler BRAHMA act coordinately and antagonistically to regulate transcription and nucleosome dynamics in Arabidopsis

Project description:Plants adapt to changes in their environment by regulating transcription and chromatin organization. The histone H2A variant H2A.Z and the SWI2/SNF2 ATPase BRAHMA have overlapping roles in positively and negatively regulating environmentally responsive genes in Arabidopsis, but the extent of this overlap was uncharacterized. Both have been associated with various changes in nucleosome positioning and stability in different contexts, but their specific roles in transcriptional regulation and chromatin organization need further characterization. We show that H2A.Z and BRM act both cooperatively and antagonistically to contribute directly to transcriptional repression and activation of genes involved in development and response to environmental stimuli. We identified 8 classes of genes that show distinct relationships between H2A.Z and BRM and their roles in transcription. We found that H2A.Z contributes to a range of different nucleosome properties, while BRM stabilizes nucleosomes where it binds and destabilizes and/or repositions flanking nucleosomes. H2A.Z and BRM contribute to +1 nucleosome destabilization, especially where they coordinately regulate transcription. While profiling nucleosomes in arp6 mutants, we discovered that large deletions had accumulated in the arp6 genome. We also found that at genes regulated by both BRM and H2A.Z, both factors overlap with the binding sites of light-regulated transcription factors PIF4, PIF5, and FRS9, and that some of the FRS9 binding sites are dependent on H2A.Z and BRM for accessibility. Collectively, we comprehensively characterized the antagonistic and cooperative contributions of H2A.Z and BRM to transcriptional regulation, and illuminated their interrelated roles in chromatin organization. The variability observed in their individual functions implies that both BRM and H2A.Z have more context-specific roles within diverse chromatin environments than previously assumed.

Chromatin Remodeler Ino80C acts independently of H2A.Z to evict promoter nucleosomes and stimulate transcription of highly expressed genes in yeast

Project description:The chromatin remodelers (CRs) SWI/SNF and RSC function in evicting promoter nucleosomes at highly expressed yeast genes, particularly those activated by transcription factor Gcn4. Ino80 remodeling complex (Ino80C) can establish nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs) in reconstituted chromatin, and was implicated in removing histone variant H2A.Z from the -1 and +1 nucleosomes flanking NDRs; however, Ino80C’s function in transcriptional activation in vivo is not well understood. Analyzing the cohort of Gcn4-induced genes in ino80Δ mutants has uncovered a role for Ino80C on par with SWI/SNF in evicting promoter nucleosomes and transcriptional activation. Compared to SWI/SNF, Ino80C generally functions over a wider region, spanning the -1 and +1 nucleosomes, NDR, and proximal genic nucleosomes, at genes highly dependent on its function. Defects in nucleosome eviction in ino80Δ cells are frequently accompanied by reduced promoter occupancies of TBP, and diminished transcription; and Ino80 is enriched at genes requiring its remodeler activity. Importantly, nuclear depletion of Ino80 impairs promoter nucleosome eviction even in a mutant lacking H2A.Z. Thus, Ino80C acts widely in the yeast genome together with RSC and SWI/SNF in evicting promoter nucleosomes and enhancing transcription, all in a manner at least partly independent of H2A.Z editing.

Replacement of Arabidopsis H2A.Z with human H2A.Z orthologs reveals extensive functional conservation and limited importance of the N-terminal tail sequence for Arabidopsis development (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:To investigate the functional conservation of H2A.Z histones during eukaryotic evolution we transformed h2a.z deficient plants with three human H2A.Z proteins to assess their ability to rescue the mutant defects. We discovered that human H2A.Z.1 and H2A.Z.2.1 fully complement the phenotypic abnormalities of h2a.z plants even though Arabidopsis and human H2A.Z N-terminal tail sequences are divergent, while the brain-specific splice variant H2A.Z.2.2 has a dominant-negative effect in wild-type plants. Furthermore, H2A.Z.1 almost completely re-establishes normal H2A.Z chromatin occupancy in h2a.z plants and restores the expression of more than 84 % of misexpressed genes. Finally, our hypothesis that the N-terminal tail of Arabidopsis H2A.Z is not crucial for its overall function was supported by the ability of N-terminal end truncations of Arabidopsis HTA11 to largely rescue the defects of h2a.z mutants.
