Project description:The data provide information of Gcn5 enrichment, H3K18 and H4K16 acetylation level and Histone H3 density for 5 different physioloigcal conditions during stress adpatation and stress recovery (normal growth, during stress adaptation, after stress adaptation, under stress recovery, after stress recovery) in yeast. The purpose of the study is to understand how histone acetyltransferase HATs (Gcn5) apply it is function in gene regulation by changing global or local histone acetylation level under different physiological conditions. Gcn5 enrichment, H3K18 and H4K16 acetylation level and Histone H3 density are mearured and compared to input signal for 5 different physioloigcal conditions (normal growth, during stress adaptation, after stress adaptation, under stress recovery, after stress recovery). Replicates are used.

Project description:Background Gcn5 belongs to a family of histone acetyltransferases (HATs) that regulate protein function by acetylation. Gcn5 plays several different roles in gene transcription throughout the genome but their characterisation by classical mutation approaches is hampered by the high degree of apparent functional redundancy between HAT proteins. Results Here we utilise the reduced redundancy associated with the transiently high levels of genomic reprogramming during stress adaptation as a complementary approach to understand the functions of redundant protein families like HATs. We show genome-wide evidence for two functionally distinct roles of Gcn5. First, Gcn5 transiently re-localises to the ORFs of long genes during stress adaptation. Taken together with earlier mechanistic studies, our data suggests that Gcn5 plays a genome- wide role in specifically increasing the transcriptional elongation of long genes, thus increasing the production efficiency of complete long transcripts. Second, we suggest that Gcn5 transiently interacts with histones close to the transcription start site of the many genes that it activates during stress adaptation by acetylation of histone H3K18, leading to histone depletion, probably as a result of nucleosome loss as has been described previously. Conclusions We show that stress adaptation can be used to elucidate the functions of otherwise redundant proteins, like Gcn5, in gene transcription. Further, we show that normalization of chromatin-associated protein levels in ChIP experiments in relation to the histone levels may provide a useful complement to standard approaches. In the present study analysis of data in this way provides an alternative explanation for previously indicated repressive role of Gcn5 in gene transcription.

Project description:Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) GCN5/PCAF and CBP/p300 are transcription coactivators. However, how these HATs regulate ligand-induced nuclear receptor target gene expression remains unclear. Here we show in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), deletion of GCN5/PCAF specifically eliminates acetylation on H3K9 (H3K9Ac) while deletion of CBP/p300 selectively reduces acetylation on H3K18 and H3K27 (H3K18/27Ac). Treating MEFs with a specific ligand for nuclear receptor PPARdelta induces sequential increases of H3K18/27Ac and H3K9Ac on the promoter of PPARdelta target gene Angptl4, which correlates with a robust ligand-induced Angptl4 expression. Inhibiting transcription elongation blocks ligand-induced H3K9Ac but not H3K18/27Ac on Angptl4 promoter. Finally, we show CBP/p300 and their HAT activities are required, while GCN5/PCAF and H3K9Ac are dispensable, for ligand-induced PPARdelta target gene expression in MEFs. These results highlight the substrate and site specificities of HATs in cells, and suggest that GCN5/PCAF- and CBP/p300-mediated histone acetylations play distinct roles in regulating ligand-induced nuclear receptor target gene expression. PCAF and GCN5 have some redundant function. To identify PCAF/GCN5-regulated genes, immortalized MEFs with PCAF knockout and GCN5 conditional knockout were infected with retroviruses expressing either Cre recombinase or vector alone. We prepared duplicated RNAs from either vector or Cre infected cells (PCAF-/-;GCN5+/- or PCAF-/-;GCN5+/-) and RNAs from either Vector or Cre infected the other independently immortalized cells for 6 affymetrix microarray.

Project description:Histone acetylation and deacetylation is important for gene regulation. The histone acetyltransferase, Gcn5, is a known activator of transcriptional initiation that is recruited to gene promoters. Here we map genome-wide levels of Gcn5 occupancy and histone H3K14ac at high resolution. Gcn5 is predominantly localized to coding regions of highly transcribed genes where it antagonistically collaborates with the class II histone deacetylase, Clr3, to regulate histone H3K14ac levels. Regulation of histone H3k14ac levels is critical for regulation of many genes during stress adaptation. Our findings suggest a novel role for Gcn5 during transcriptional elongation in addition to its known role in transcriptional initiation. The related data for this are GSE13790 and GSE5227 Data showed expression pattern of gcn5- vs gcn5-clr3- and clr3- vs wild type under KCl stress in S. pombe. Two biological replicates are used with dye-swap labeling.
