Project description:To identify the roles of silencers in generating and maintaining epigenetic states, we utilized FACS to sort cells that exhibited different epigenetic states, and ChIP to survey the chromatin architecture of a locus in these cells. Additional experiments involve modulation of silencing factors and phenotypic measurements such as transcription of the locus of interest and ChIP of silencing factors at that locus.

Project description:Heritable heterochromatin domain formation is initiated by dynamic changes in the proteome on specialized loci, leading to chromatin modifier recruitment, heterochromatin assembly and propagation. Here we characterize the proteomes associated with a defined heterochromatin nucleation region in three distinct chromatin states: before de novo H3K9 methylation nucleation, following heterochromatin assembly and upon heterochromatin disassembly. Our analyses separate sequence-dependent from sequence-independent processes, providing a systematic examination of the template-driven nucleation and epigenetic wiring underlying heterochromatin transmission. We identify functional interactions that reveal an integral role for the conserved nucleolytic Grc3 complex, and its associated network, as pioneer factors in heterochromatin assembly. More broadly, we demonstrate the power of quantitative proteomics-based strategies for the unbiased scrutiny of the single regions assembled in distinct chromatin states.

Project description:Pluripotent states of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) with distinct transcription profile affect their differentiation capacity and therapeutic potential. By single cell analysis of high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) genome structure, we show that remodeling genome structure is highly associated with pluripotent states of human ESCs (hESCs). Naive pluripotent state is featured with specialized 3D genome structures and clear chromatin compartmentation distinct from primed state. Naive pluripotent state may be achieved by remodeled active euchromatin compartment and less chromatin interaction in the nuclear center. This unique genome organization is linked to elevated chromatin accessibility on enhancers and thus high expression levels of naive pluripotent genes localized in this region. On the contrary, primed state exhibits intermingled genome organization. Moreover, active euchromatin and primed pluripotent genes are distributed in the nuclear periphery and yet repressive heterochromatin densely concentrated in the nuclear center, reducing chromatin accessibility and transcription of naive genes. Thus, inversion or relocation of heterochromatin to euchromatin compartmentation is related to regulating chromatin accessibility and thus define pluripotent states and cell identity.

Project description:Histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) methylation is a central epigenetic modification that defines heterochromatin from unicellular to multicellular organisms. In mammalian cells, H3K9 methylation can be catalyzed by at least six distinct SET domain enzymes: Suv39h1/Suv39h2, Eset1/Eset2 and G9a/Glp. We used mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) with a conditional mutation for Eset1 and introduced progressive deletions for the other SET domain genes by CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Compound mutant MEFs for all 6 SET domain methyltransferase (KMT) genes lack all H3K9 methylation states, derepress nearly all families of repeat elements and display genomic instabilities. Strikingly, the 6KO H3K9 KMT MEFs no longer maintain heterochromatin organization and have lost electron-dense heterochromatin. This is the first analysis of H3K9 methylation deficient mammalian chromatin and reveals a crucial function for H3K9 methylation in protecting heterochromatin organization and genome integrity.

Project description:Under continuous, glucose-limited conditions, budding yeast exhibit robust metabolic cycles associated with major oscillations of gene expression and metabolic state. However, how such fluctuations might be coordinately linked to changes in chromatin status is less well understood. Here, we examine the correlated genome-wide transcription and chromatin states across the yeast metabolic cycle (YMC) at unprecedented temporal resolution, revealing a "just in time supply chain" by which specific cellular processes such as ribosome biogenesis are coordinated in time with remarkable precision. We identify distinct chromatin and splicing patterns associated with different gene categories and determine the relative timing of chromatin modifications to maximal transcription. Additionally, we interrogate chromatin modifier occupancy and observe subtly distinct spatial and temporal patterns compared to the modifications themselves. Furthermore, we identify multiple lysine mutants in H3 or H4 tails that disrupt metabolic cycling, supporting a potentially cooperative role of histone modifications in the YMC. 16 time points RNA-seq and ChIP-seq of 8 histone marks over one metabolic cycle, 14 time points ChIP-seq of 3 chromatin modifiers over one metabolic cycle

Project description:Epigenetic inheritance of heterochromatin requires DNA sequence-independent propagation mechanisms, coupling to RNAi, or input from DNA sequence, but how DNA contributes to inheritance is not understood. Here, we identify a DNA element (termed “maintainer”) that is sufficient for epigenetic inheritance of preexisting histone H3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me) and heterochromatin in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, but cannot establish de novo gene silencing in wild-type cells. This maintainer is a composite DNA element with binding sites for the Atf1/Pcr1 and Deb1 transcription factors and the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC), located within a 130-base pair region, and can be converted to a silencer in cells with lower rates of H3K9me turnover, suggesting that it participates in recruiting the H3K9 methyltransferase Clr4/Suv39h. These results suggest that, in the absence of RNAi, histone H3K9me is only heritable when it can collaborate with maintainer-associated DNA-binding proteins that help recruit the enzyme responsible for its epigenetic deposition.

Project description:Key protein adapters couple translation to mRNA decay on specific classes of problematic mRNAs in eukaryotes. Slow decoding on nonoptimal codons leads to codon-optimality-mediated decay (COMD) and prolonged arrest at stall sites leads to no-go decay (NGD). The identities of the decay factors underlying these processes and the mechanisms by which they respond to translational distress remain open areas of investigation. We use carefully-designed reporter mRNAs to perform genetic screens and functional assays in S. cerevisiae. We characterize the roles of Hel2 and Syh1 in coordinating translational repression and mRNA decay on NGD reporter mRNAs, finding that Syh1 acts as the primary link to mRNA decay in NGD. Importantly we, observe that these NGD factors are not involved in the degradation of mRNAs enriched in nonoptimal codons. Further, we establish that key factors previously implicated in COMD, Not5 and Dhh1 , contribute modestly to the degradation of an NGD-targeted mRNA. Finally, we use ribosome profiling to reveal distinct ribosomal states associated with each reporter mRNA that readily rationalize the contributions of NGD and COMD factors to degradation of these reporters. Taken together, these results provide new mechanistic insight into the role of Syh1 in NGD and define the molecular triggers that determine how distinct pathways target mRNAs for degradation in yeast.
