Project description:Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) regulate chromatin states and epigenetic inheritance. Here we show that the lincRNA HOTAIR serves as a scaffold for at least two distinct histone modification complexes. A 5’ domain of HOTAIR binds Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) while a 3’ domain of HOTAIR binds the LSD1/CoREST/REST complex. The ability to tether two distinct complexes enables RNA-mediated assembly of PRC2 and LSD1, and coordinates targeting of PRC2 and LSD1 to chromatin for coupled histone H3 lysine 27 methylation and lysine 4 demethylation. Our results suggest that lincRNAs may serve as scaffolds by providing binding surfaces to assemble select histone modification enzymes, and thereby specify the pattern of histone modifications on target genes. Coordinate loss of SUZ12 and LSD1 occupancy caused by HOTAIR knockdown were concentrated in proximal promoters of HOXD genes. These regions correspondingly lost H3K27me3 and gained H3K4me2, the respective histone methylation products of PRC2 and LSD1 complexes. Comparison occupancy of LSD1 and SUZ12 of siGFP and siHOTAIR foreskin fibroblasts on HOX tiling array. Human foreskin fibroblasts were transfected with siGFP or siHOTAIR. The cells were harvested and ChIP analysis with anti-H3K4me2, anti-LSD1 and anti-SUZ12 antibodies was performed.

Project description:We recently showed that the mammalian genome encodes more than a thousand large intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) that are clearly conserved across mammals and thus functional. Gene expression patterns have implicated these lincRNAs in diverse biological processes including cell cycle regulation, immune surveillance, and embryonic stem cell pluripotency. However, the mechanism by which these lincRNAs function is unknown. Here, we expand the catalog of human lincRNAs to ~3300 by analyzing chromatin-state maps of various human cell types. Inspired by the observation that the well-characterized lincRNA HOTAIR bind the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), we tested whether many lincRNAs are physically associated with PRC2. Remarkably, we observe that ~20% of lincRNAs expressed in various cell types are bound by PRC2, and that additional lincRNAs are bound by other chromatin-modifying complexes. Moreover, we show that siRNA-mediated depletion of certain lincRNAs associated with PRC2 leads to changes in gene expression and that the upregulated genes are enriched for those normally silenced by PRC2. We propose a model in which some lincRNAs guide chromatin–modifying complexes to specific genomic loci to regulate gene expression. siRNA-mediated lincRNA knockdown siRNAs targeting specific lincRNAs were transected into human fibroblasts. Non-targeting siRNAs were used as controls. Both of these experiment types were hybridized to Affymetrix gene expression arrays.
