Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze genome-wide patterns of histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) and nucleosome distribution during the sporophyte and gametophyte generations of the life cycle of the brown alga Ectocarpus. Analysis of the results of this experiment along with those generated by a second experiment “Genome-wide analysis of chromatin states of Ectocarpus sporophytes and gametophytes, experiment 1” indicated that the histone PTMs H3K4me2, H3K4me3, H3K9ac, H3K14ac and H3K27ac are associated with the transcriptional start sites (TSSs) of actively expressed genes, H3K36me3 preferentially marks gene bodies and is associated with gene activation, H4K20me3 marks transposons and is associated with gene repression, probably through the silencing of transposons in introns. H3K79me2 occurs in zones corresponding to about a third of the genome. These zones often span several genes and genes within H3K79me2 zones exhibit lower levels of transcript abundance.

Project description:Background: Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) constitute a branch of epigenetic mechanisms that can control the expression of eukaryotic genes in a heritable manner. Recent studies have identified several PTM-binding proteins containing diverse specialized domains whose recognition of specific PTM sites leads to gene activation or repression. Here, we present a high-throughput proteogenomic platform designed to characterize the nucleosomal make-up of chromatin enriched with a set of histone PTM-binding proteins known as histone PTM readers. We support our findings with gene expression data correlating to PTM distribution. Results: We isolated human mononucleosomes bound by the bromodomain-containing proteins Brd2, Brd3 and Brd4, and by the chromodomain-containing heterochromatin proteins HP1alpha and HP1beta. Histone PTMs were quantified by mass spectrometry (ChIP-qMS), and their associated DNAs were mapped using deep sequencing. Our results reveal that Brd- and HP1-bound nucleosomes are enriched in histone PTMs consistent with actively transcribed euchromatin and silent heterochromatin, respectively. Data collected using RNA-Seq (GSM301568) show that Brd-bound sites correlate with highly expressed genes. In particular, Brd3 and Brd4 are most enriched on nucleosomes located within HOX gene clusters, whose expression is reduced upon Brd4 depletion by shRNA. Conclusions: Proteogenomic mapping of histone PTM readers, alongside the characterization of their local chromatin environments and transcriptional information, should prove useful for determining how histone PTMs are bound by these readers and how they contribute to distinct transcriptional states.

Project description:By performing metabolic incorporation of heavy labeled amino acids in cell culture, we estimated the turnover rates of histones decorated with different PTMs, and correlated this information with how “active” chromatin is where these PTMs reside.

Project description:Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins play critical roles in regulating many cellular events. Antibodies targeting site-specific PTMs are essential tools for detecting and enriching PTMs at sites of interest. However, fundamental difficulties in molecular recognition of both PTM and surrounding peptide sequence have hindered the efficient generation of highly specific anti-PTM antibodies. Furthermore, the widespread use of potentially inconsistent, non-renewable and molecularly undefined antibodies presents experimental challenges thought to contribute to the reproducibility crisis in biomedical research. In this study, we describe the structure-guided development of a platform that efficiently generates potent and selective recombinant antibodies to PTMs that are molecularly-defined and infinitely renewable. Our platform is built on our previous discovery of an unconventional binding mode of anti-PTM antibodies, antigen clasping, where two antigen binding sites cooperatively clasp a single antigen, creating extensive interactions with the antigen and leading to high selectivity and potency. We designed the platform that generates clasping antibodies with two distinct binding units, resulting in efficient generation of antibodies to a set of trimethylated histone H3 with high levels of specificity and affinity. Performance comparison in chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), a common application in epigenomics, revealed that an anti-H3K27me3 clasping antibody exhibited superior specificity to a widely-used conventional antibody and captured symmetric and asymmetric nucleosomes in a less biased manner. We further generated clasping antibodies to phosphotyrosine antigens by using the same principle. These results suggest the broad applicability of our platform to generating high-performance clasping antibodies to diverse PTMs.

Project description:Both genetic and environmental factors are implicated in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Since environmental factors can trigger epigenetic changes, we hypothesized that variations in histone posttranslational modifications (PTMs) at the promoter/enhancer regions of T1D susceptible genes may be associated with T1D. We therefore evaluated histone PTM variations at known T1D susceptible genes in blood cells from T1D patients versus healthy non-diabetic controls, and explored their connections to T1D. We used the chromatin-immunoprecipitation-linked-to-microarray approach to profile key histone PTMs, including H3-lysine-4 trimethylation (H3K4me3), H3K27me3, H3K9me3, H3K9 acetylation (H3K9Ac) and H4K16Ac at genes within the T1D susceptible loci in lymphocytes, and H3K4me3, H3K9me2, H3K9Ac and H4K16Ac at the IDDM1 region in monocytes of T1D patients and healthy controls separately. We screened for potential variations in histone PTMs using computational methods to compare datasets from T1D and controls. Interestingly, we observed marked variations in H3K9Ac levels at the upstream regions of HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DQB1 within the IDDM1 locus in T1D monocytes relative to controls. Additional experiments with THP-1 monocytes demonstrated increased expression of HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DQB1 in response to interferon- and TNF-treatment that were accompanied by changes in H3K9Ac at the same promoter regions as that seen in the patient monocytes. These results suggest that the H3K9Ac status of HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DQB1, two genes highly associated with T1D, may be relevant to their regulation and transcriptional response towards external stimuli. Thus, the promoter/enhancer architecture and chromatin status of key susceptible loci could be important determinants in their functional association to T1D susceptibility. We used ChIP-chip to profile key histone PTMs, including H3K4me3, H3K9me2, H3K9Ac and H4K16Ac, at the IDDM1 region in monocytes of T1D patients and healthy controls.
