Project description:We report that acetylation of H4K16 is a new marker of active enhancers and that some enhancers are marked by H3K4me1, MOF and H4K16ac but not by acetylated H3K27 or p300, suggesting that they are novel p300-independent regulatory elements.

Project description:Enhancers are fundamental to gene regulation. Post-translational modifications by the small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMO) modify chromatin regulation enzymes, including histone acetylases and deacetylases. However, it remains unclear whether SUMOylation regulates enhancer marks, acetylation at the 27th lysine residue of the histone H3 protein (H3K27Ac). We hypothesize that SUMOylation regulates H3K27Ac. To test this hypothesis, we performed genome-wide ChIP-seq analyses. We discovered that knockdown (KD) of the SUMO activating enzyme catalytic subunit UBA2 reduced H3K27Ac at most enhancers. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that TFAP2C-binding sites are enriched in enhancers whose H3K27Ac was reduced by UBA2 KD. ChIP-seq analysis in combination with molecular biological methods showed that TFAP2C binding to enhancers increased upon UBA2 KD or inhibition of SUMOylation by a small molecule SUMOylation inhibitor. However, this is not due to the SUMOylation of TFAP2C itself. Proteomics analysis of TFAP2C interactome on the chromatin identified histone deacetylation (HDAC) machinery. TFAP2C KD reduced HDAC binding to chromatin and increased H3K27Ac marks at enhancer regions, suggesting that TFAP2C is involved in recruiting HDAC. Taken together, our findings provide important insights into regulation of enhancer marks by SUMOylation.

Project description:We report the acetylation of lysine residues in the globular domain of H3 (H3K64ac and H3K122ac) marks active gene promoters and also a subset of active enhancers in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), human erythroleukemic cell line (K562). Moreover, we find a novel class of active functional enhancers in ESCs that are marked by H3K122ac but which lack H3K27ac. This work suggests that a more complex analysis of histone acetylation is required to identify enhancers than was previously considered.
