Project description:We report that the Drosophila Non-Specific Lethal (NSL) complex is necessary to maintain this stereotypical nucleosomal organization at promoters. Upon NSL1 depletion, nucleosomes invade the NDRs at TSSs of NSL-bound genes. NSL complex member NSL3 binds to TATA-less promoters in a sequence-dependent manner. We showed that the NSL complex is necessary and sufficient to recruit NURF chromatin remodeling complex to target promoters. The NSL complex is not only essential for transcription but is required for accurate TSS selection for genes with multiple TSSs. Further, loss of NSL complex leads to an increase in transcriptional noise. Thus, the NSL complex establishes a canonical nucleosomal organization that enables transcription and determines TSS fidelity.

Project description:Nucleosomal organization at gene promoters is critical for transcription, with a nucleosome-depleted region (NDR) at transcription start sites (TSSs) being required for transcription initiation. How NDRs and the precise positioning of the +1 nucleosomes are maintained on active genes remains unclear. Here, we report that the Drosophila nonspecific lethal (NSL) complex is necessary to maintain this stereotypical nucleosomal organization at promoters. Upon NSL1 depletion, nucleosomes invade the NDRs at TSSs of NSL-bound genes. NSL complex member NSL3 binds to TATA-less promoters in a sequence-dependent manner. The NSL complex interacts with the NURF chromatin remodeling complex and is necessary and sufficient to recruit NURF to target promoters. Not only is the NSL complex essential for transcription, but it is required for accurate TSS selection for genes with multiple TSSs. Furthermore, loss of the NSL complex leads to an increase in transcriptional noise. Thus, the NSL complex establishes a canonical nucleosomal organization that enables transcription and determines TSS fidelity.

Project description:Cells rely on a diverse repertoire of genes for maintaining homeostasis, but the transcriptional networks underlying their expression remain poorly understood. The MOF acetyltransferase-containing Non-Specific Lethal (NSL) complex is a broad transcription regulator. It is essential in Drosophila and haploinsufficiency of the human KANSL1 subunit results in the Koolen-de Vries syndrome. Here, we perform a genome-wide RNAi screen and identify the BET protein BRD4 as evolutionary conserved co-factor of the NSL complex. Using Drosophila and mouse embryonic stem cells, we characterise a recruitment hierarchy, where NSL-deposited histone acetylation induces BRD4 recruitment for transcription of constitutively active genes. Transcriptome analyses in Koolen-de Vries patient-derived fibroblasts reveals perturbations with a cellular homeostasis signature that are evoked by the NSL complex/BRD4-axis. We propose that BRD4 represents a conserved bridge between the NSL complex and transcription activation and provide a new perspective in the understanding of their functions in healthy and diseased states.

Project description:The methyl lysine readers PHF (plant homeodomain finger) 20 (PHF20) and its homolog PHF20 Like 1 (PHF20L1) are known components of the NSL (non-specific lethal) complex that regulates gene expression through its histone acetyltransferase activity. In the current model, both PHF homologs coexist in the same NSL complex although this was not formally tested; nor have the functions of PHF20 and PHF20L1 regarding NSL complex integrity and transcriptional regulation been investigated. By performing an in-depth biochemical and functional characterization, we define the association and contributions of the two methyl lysine reader homologs PHF20 and PHF20L1 to the NSL complex.

Here we perform an in-depth biochemical and functional characterization of PHF20 and PHF20L1 in the context of the NSL complex. We identify the existence of two distinct NSL complexes that exclusively contain either PHF20 or PHF20L1; the two PHF homologs do not complex together in the same NSL species. Our data show that the C-terminal domains are essential for PHF20 and PHF20L1 to complex with NSL and the Tudor 2 domains of PHF20 and PHF20L1 are required for chromatin binding. The genome-wide landscape of PHF20/PHF20L1 binding to chromatin shows that they bind mostly to the same genomic regions, at promoters of highly expressed/housekeeping genes. Yet, deletion of PHF20 and PHF20L1 does not abrogate gene expression of the identified targets or impact the recruitment of NSL to the promoters of those genes, suggesting the existence of an alternative mechanism that compensates for the transcription of genes whose sustained expression is important for critical cellular functions.
