Project description:ATRX is a chromatin remodelling protein of the SWI/SNF family, mutations in which cause alpha thalassemia X-linked (ATRX) intellectual disability syndrome and are highly associated with a number of cancers characterized by alternative lengthening of telomeres. ATRX functions with the histone chaperone DAXX to facilitate deposition of the histone variant H3.3 at heterochromatic regions such as telomere and pericentric repeats, resulting in a unique form of heterochromatin characterized by both trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 9 (H3K9me3) and H3.3. How ATRX is recruited to these regions remain unclear.To better understand it, we therefore used immunoprecipitation-coupled to mass spectrometry (IP-MS) to identify potential factors that interact with ATRX and may promote its localization and function. Based on our proteomics results, we identified known ATRX-interacting proteins, DAXX and MRE11. We also identified a number of proteins that have been genetically linked to G-quadruplex structures. Interestingly, we identified members of DNA replcation machinery MCM complex (e.g. MCM2, MCM4, MCM6, and MCM7) and the faciliates chromatin transcription (FACT) comeplex as novel ATRX-interacting proteins. We then verified the interaction of ATRX to MCM proteins and FACT subunits by co-immunoprecipition/immunoblot and proximity ligation assay.

Project description:The histone variant H3.3 is incorporated in a replication-independent manner at heterochromatic regions by the ATRX-DAXX histone chaperone complex. Here, we present a high-resolution x-ray crystal structure of an interaction surface between ATRX and DAXX. We used single amino acid substitutions in DAXX that abrogate formation of the complex to explore ATRX-dependent and -independent functions of DAXX. We found that the repression of specific murine endogenous retroviruses is dependent on DAXX, but not on ATRX. In support, we reveal the existence of two biochemically distinct DAXX-containing complexes: The ATRX-DAXX complex involved in gene repression and telomere chromatin structure, and a DAXX-SETDB1-KAP1-HDAC1 complex that represses endogenous retroviruses independently of ATRX and H3.3 incorporation into chromatin. We found that histone H3.3 stabilizes DAXX protein levels and affects DAXX-regulated genes independently of its incorporation into nucleosomes. Our findings represent the first description of a nucleosome-independent function for the H3.3 histone variant.

Project description:DAXX and ATRX are tumor suppressor proteins that form a complex with histone H3.3 chaperone and are frequently mutated in cancers with the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT), such as pediatric glioblastoma. Rapid loss of function of either DAXX or ATRX are not by themselves sufficient to induce the ALT phenotype. However, cells lacking DAXX or ATRX can be readily selected for ALT-like features. Here, we show that a key feature of ALT selected DAXX and ATRX null glioblastoma cells is the attenuation of p53 function. RNA-seq analysis of DAXX or ATRX null U87 glioblastoma cells with ALT-like features revealed that p53 pathway is among perturbed. ALT-selected DAXX and ATRX-null cells had aberrant response to DNA damaging agent etoposide. Both DAXX and ATRX-null ALT cells showed a loss of p53 binding at a subset of response elements. Complementation of DAXX null cells with wt DAXX rescued p53 binding and transcription, while the tumor associated mutation L130R, that disrupts ATRX binding, was incapable of rescuing p53 chromatin binding. We show that histone H3.3 binding is reduced in DAXX-null cells especially at subtelomeric p53 binding sites and telomere repeats. These findings indicate that DAXX and ATRX function to enable p53 chromatin binding through modulation of histone H3.3 binding, especially at sub-telomeric sites.

Project description:The histone variant macroH2A generally associates with transcriptionally inert chromatin, however the factors that regulate its chromatin incorporation remain elusive. Here, we identify the SWI/SNF helicase, ATRX, as a novel macroH2A interacting protein. Unlike its role in assisting H3.3 chromatin deposition, ATRX acts as a negative regulator of macroH2A’s chromatin association. In human erythroleukemic cells deficient for ATRX, ChIP-sequencing studies reveal that macroH2A accumulates at the HBA gene cluster on the subtelomere of chromosome 16, coinciding with the loss of α globin expression. Collectively, our results implicate deregulation of macroH2A’s distribution as a contributing factor to the α thalassemia phenotype of ATRX syndrome. Mononucleosomes from K562 cells bearing integrated lentiviral shRNA constructs targeting either luciferase (shluc) or ATRX (sh92) were isolated and ChIP'd with mH2A1 antibody. DNA from shluc Input and the two mH2A1 ChIPs were isolated and sequenced on Illumina's Hiseq.

Project description:Maintenance of chromatin homeostasis involves proper delivery of histone variants to the genome. The interplay between different chaperones regulating the supply of histone variants to distinct chromatin domains remains largely undeciphered. We report a role of promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein in the routing of histone variant H3.3 to chromatin and in the organization of megabase-size heterochromatic PML-associated domains that we call PADs. Loss of PML alters the heterochromatic state of PADs by shifting the histone H3 methylation balance from K9me3 to K27me3. Loss of PML impairs deposition of H3.3 by ATRX and DAXX in PADs but preserves the H3.3 loading function of HIRA in these regions. Our results unveil an unappreciated role of PML in the large-scale organization of chromatin and demonstrate a PML-dependent role of ATRX/DAXX in the deposition of H3.3 in PADs. Our data suggest that H3.3 loading by HIRA and ATRX-dependent H3K27 trimethylation constitute mechanisms ensuring maintenance of heterochromatin when the integrity of these domains is compromised.

Project description:Heterochromatin Protein 1 (HP1) is a major regulator of chromatin structure and function. In animals, the network of proteins interacting with HP1 is mainly associated with constitutive heterochromatin marked by H3K9me3. HP1 physically interacts with the putative orthologue of the SNF2 chromatin remodeler ATRX, which controls deposition of the histone variant H3.3 in mammals. In Arabidopsis thaliana, we show that the orthologue of ATRX participates in H3.3 deposition and characterize the function of conserved domains of plant ATRX. We show that the plant Like HP1 (LHP1) interacts with ATRX through domains that evolved specifically in land plants ancestors. Interaction between ATRX and LHP1 affects the expression of a limited subset of genes controlled by the POLYCOMB REPRESSIVE COMPLEX 2 (PRC2), including the flowering time regulator FLC. In the context of flowering time, ATRX function requires the novel LHP1-interacting domain and the ATPase of the ATRX SNF2 helicase. We conclude that distinct evolutionary pathways led to interaction between ATRX and HP1 in mammals or its counterpart LHP1 in plants, resulting in distinct modes of transcriptional regulation.
