Project description:The incorporation of histone H3 variants has been implicated in the epigenetic memory of cellular state. Using genome editing with zinc finger nucleases to tag endogenous H3.3, we report genome-wide profiles of H3 variants in mammalian embryonic stem (ES) cells and neuronal precursor cells. Genome-wide patterns of H3.3 are dependent on amino acid sequence, and change with cellular differentiation at developmentally regulated loci. The H3.3 chaperone Hira is required for H3.3 enrichment at active and repressed genes. Strikingly, Hira is not essential for localization of H3.3 at telomeres and many transcription factor binding sites. Immunoaffinity purification and mass spectrometry reveal that the proteins Atrx and Daxx associate with H3.3 in a Hira-independent manner. Atrx is required for Hira-independent localization of H3.3 at telomeres, and for the repression of telomeric RNA. Our data demonstrate that multiple and distinct factors are responsible for H3.3 localization at specific genomic locations in mammalian cells. Crosslinking ChIP-seq: Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.3), 2 histone modifications, and Serine-5 phosphorylated RNA polymerase in 2 different cell types (H3.3-HA ES samples 1-4, and H3.3-HA NPC samples 7-10). Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.2), and one histone modification (H3K36me3) in 2 different cell types (H3.2-HA ES samples 5-6, and H3.2-HA NPC samples 11-12). Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.3), input control, and one histone modification (H3K36me3) in one cell type (H3.3-HA hybrid ES, samples 13-15). Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.1S31), input control, and one histone modification (H3K36me3) in one cell type (H3.1S31-HA hybrid ES, samples 16-18). Native ChIP-seq: Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.3), input control, and one histone modification (H3K4me3) in one cell type (H3.3-HA ES, samples 19-21). Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.2), input control, and two histone modifications (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3) in one cell type (H3.2-HA ES, samples 22-25). Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.3), input control, and two histone modifications (H3K4me1 and H3K36me3) in one cell type (H3.3-EYFP ES, samples 26-29). Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.3), input control, and two histone modifications (H3K4me1 and H3K36me3) in one cell type (Hira -/- H3.3-EYFP ES, samples 30-33). Examination of 1 histone variant (H3.3) and input control in one cell type (Atrxflox H3.3-EYFP ES, samples 34-37). Examination of HA antibody background in one cell type (wild-type ES, sample 38).

Project description:Recognition of modified histones by “reader” proteins plays a critical role in the regulation of transcription1. H3K36 trimethylation (H3K36me3) is deposited onto the nucleosomes in the transcribed regions following RNA polymerase II (Pol II) elongation. In yeast, this mark in turn recruits epigenetic regulators to reset the chromatin at an appropriate state to suppress cryptic transcription2,3. However, much less is known about the role of H3K36me3 in transcription regulation in mammals. This is further complicated by the transcription-coupled incorporation of the histone variant H3.3 in gene bodies4. Here we show that the candidate tumor suppressor ZMYND11 specifically recognizes H3K36me3 on H3.3 (H3.3K36me3) and regulates Pol II elongation. Structural studies reveal that in addition to the trimethyl-lysine binding by an aromatic cage within the PWWP domain, the H3.3-dependent recognition is mediated by the encapsulation of the H3.3-specific “Ser31” residue in a composite pocket formed by the tandem bromo-PWWP domains of ZMYND11. ChIP-sequencing analysis reveal a genome-wide colocalization of ZMYND11 with H3K36me3 and H3.3 in gene bodies, and its occupancy requires the pre-deposition of H3.3K36me3. Although ZMYND11 is associated with highly expressed genes, it functions as an unconventional transcription corepressor via modulating the transition of the promoter-proximal paused Pol II to elongation. ZMYND11 is critical for the repression of a transcriptional program that is essential for tumor cell growth; higher expression of ZMYND11 is observed in triple-negative breast cancer patients with better prognosis. Consistently, overexpression of ZMYND11 suppresses cancer cell growth and tumor formation in mice. Together, this study identifies ZMYND11 as an H3.3-specific reader of H3K36me3 that links the histone variant-mediated transcription elongation control to tumor suppression. ChIP-seq analysis of ZMYND11, H3K36me3 in U2OS cells and ZMYND11 knockdown cells; ChIP-seq of H3.3 in Flag-H3.3 stable U2OS cells; RNA-seq of ZNYMD11 depleted U2OS cells.
