Project description:In the budding yeast, HMR, HML, telomere and rDNA domain are known as a silencing region. Sir2 need to make it at rDNA and, HMR, HML and the telomere need to Sir2, Sir3, Sir4 complex to control internal gene repression. In this report, we found a newly Sir3 binding domain, CN domain (Chromosome New region) 1~14, by the ChIP on chip analysis on S.cerevisiae chromosome. In addition, we also performed ChIP on chip analysis with anti-Sir3 antibody using G1 phase synchronized cell to find Sir3 distribution difference of stage of cell cycle and we found CN15~CN25 which was G1 phase specific Sir3 binding region. Furthermore, we analyzed difference of gene expression at CN region in sir3 strain, and some regions did not change level of gene expression. In the conventional report, Sir3 had recruited by Sir2 and Sir4 on chromosome, but recruit of Sir3 was independent on Sir2 and Sir4 at some CN regions. These data suggested that we found a newly Sir3 function and Sir3 recruited system on chromosome.

Project description:O-acetyl-ADP-ribose (AAR) is a small metabolic molecule that is generated during NAD-dependent deacetylation by Sir2. Sir2 regulates gene expression, DNA repair, and genome stability. chromatin affinity-precipitation (ChAP) method was used to detect the chromatin fragments at which small molecules interact with binding partners. Chromatin immunoprecipitation of Sir3 and of Sir2, respectively, applied with tilling array chip (ChIP on chip of Sir3 and of Sir2, respectively) and Chromatin affinity-precipitation of AAR applied with tilling array chip (ChAP on chip of AAR ) analysis demonstrated that an extended spreading of Sir3 and of AAR, but not Sir2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ysa1 deleted cells compared with those in wild type cells Comparison the distributions of Sir3, of Sir2 and of AAR on silent heterochromatin of Ysa1 deletion cells vs those of wild type cells

Project description:Analysis of gene expression changes following deletion of SIR genes at subtelomeric region. A total of 4 samples were analyzed : Wild type (BY4742) strain, SIR2 deletion strain, SIR3 deletion strain, SIR4 deletion strain.
Project description:As part of a study of establishment of silencing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we performed ChIP-seq on myc-tagged Sir4 in several conditions. Included in those conditions are wild-type cycling cells, cycling sir3∆ cells, and various experiments during which silencing establishment was controlled using the inducible SIR3-EBD allele. Silencing establishment experiments were performed in both wild-type and dot1∆ cells.
Project description:The formation of heterochromatin at HML, HMR, and telomeres in Saccharomyces cerevisiae involves two main steps: Recruitment of Sir proteins to silencers and their spread throughout the silenced domain. For the following datasets, we created a fusion protein between the heterochromatin protein Sir3 and the non-site-specific bacterial adenine methyltransferase M.EcoGII, with or without a 3xV5 epitope at the C-terminus. We performed ChIP-seq experiments (immunoprecipitated Sir3-M.EcoGII-3xV5) and MeDIP-seq experiments (immunoprecipitated m6A methylated DNA). We also used a temperature-sensitive allele of SIR3 (sir3-8) fused to M.ECOGII to induce m6A methylation for MeDIP-seq.
Project description:We have performed a comprehensive analysis of the involvement of histone H3 and H4 residues in the regulation of chronological lifespan in yeast. Residues where substitution resulted in the most pronounced lifespan extension are all on the exposed face of the nucleosome, with the exception of H3E50, which is present on the lateral surface, between two DNA gyres. Other residues that had a more modest effect on lifespan extension were concentrated at the extremities of the H3-H4 dimer, suggesting a role in stabilizing the dimer in its nucleosome frame. Residues implicated in a reduced lifespan were buried in the histone handshake motif, suggesting that these mutations destabilize the octamer structure. All residues exposed on the disk and that caused lifespan extension are known to interact with Sir3. We find that substitution of H4K16 and H4H18 cause Sir3 to redistribute from telomeres and silent mating loci to secondary positions, often enriched for Rap1 or Abf1 binding sites, whereas H3E50 does not. The redistributed Sir3 cause transcriptional repression at most of the new loci, including of genes where null mutants were previously shown to extend chronological lifespan. The transcriptomic profiles of H4K16 and H4H18 mutant strains are very similar, and compatible with a DNA replication stress response. This is distinct from the transcriptomic profile of H3E50, which matches strong induction of oxidative phosphorylation. We propose that different clusters of H3 and H4 residues are involved in either binding to non-histone proteins, or in destabilizing the association of the nucleosome DNA, or disrupting binding of a H3-H4 dimer in the nucleosome, or disturbing the structural stability of the octamer, each category impacting on chronological lifespan through a different path.
