Project description:Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) regulates gene repression, cell-fate determination and differentiation. We report that a conserved Bromo-Adjacent Homology (BAH) module of BAHCC1 (BAHCC1BAH) ‘recognizes’ H3K27me3 specifically and enforces silencing of H3K27me3-demarcated genes in mammalian cells. Biochemical, structural and ChIP-seq-based analyses demonstrate that direct readout of H3K27me3 by BAHCC1 is achieved through a hydrophobic trimethyl-lysine-binding ‘cage’ formed by BAHCC1BAH, mediating co-localization of BAHCC1 and H3K27me3-marked genes. BAHCC1 is overexpressed in human acute leukemias and interacts with transcriptional co-repressors. In leukemia, depletion of BAHCC1, or disruption of the BAHCC1BAH:H3K27me3 interaction, causes de-repression of H3K27me3-targeted genes that are involved in tumor suppression and cell differentiation, leading to suppression of oncogenesis. In mice, introduction of a germ-line mutation at Bahcc1 to disrupt its H3K27me3 engagement causes partial postnatal lethality, supporting a role in development. This study unveils a novel H3K27me3-directed transduction pathway in mammals that relies on a conserved BAH ‘reader’.

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen 2 (EBNA2) is a transactivator of viral and cellular gene expression, which plays a critical role in the Epstein-Barr virus-associated diseases. It was reported that EBNA2 regulates gene expression by manipulating epigenetics, but the details are unclear. Recent studies showed that liquid-liquid phase separation plays an essential role in epigenetic and transcriptional regulation. Through the recently developed ATAC-see technology, we observed that EBNA2 reorganized chromatin topology to form accessible chromatin domains (ACDs) of the host genome by phase separation. The N-terminal region of EBNA2, which is necessary for phase separation, is sufficient to induce ACDs. The C-terminal domain of EBNA2 promotes the acetylation of accessible chromatin regions by recruiting histone acetylase p300 to ACDs. According to these observations, we proposed a model of EBNA2 reorganizing chromatin topology for its acetylation through phase separation to explain the mechanism of EBNA2 hijacking the host genome by controlling its epigenetics. Our findings help to understand the molecular mechanism of the EBV-associated diseases and develop therapeutics for these diseases.

Project description:Components of the transcription machinery can undergo liquid-liquid phase separation, but the functional importance of phase-separated condensates in transcriptional control is not well understood. Here we report that disease-causing mutations in several transcription factors (TFs) alter the phase separation capacity of those TFs. We first demonstrate that the Hoxd13 TF, and its intrinsically disordered N-terminus form phase-separated condensates. Expansions of a polyalanine repeat, which cause hereditary synpolydactyly in humans, facilitate phase separation of Hoxd13, and alter the transcriptional program of several cell types in a cell-specific manner in vivo. Disease-associated expansions of aminoacid repeats in intrinsically disordered regions of other TFs were similarly found to alter phase separation. These results suggest that aberrant phase separation of transcriptional regulators may underlie a spectrum of human pathologies. The paper is available at https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2020.04.018

Project description:CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα) regulates myeloid differentiation, and its dysregulation contributes to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) progress. Clarifying its functional implementation mechanism is of great significance for its further clinical application. Here, we show that C/EBPα regulates AML cell differentiation through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), which can be disrupted by C/EBPα-p30. Considering that C/EBPα-p30 inhibits the functions of C/EBPα through the LZ region, a small peptide TAT-LZ that could instantaneously interfere with the homodimerization of C/EBPα-p42 was constructed, and dynamic inhibition of C/EBPα phase separation was observed, demonstrating the importance of C/EBPα-p42 homodimers for its LLPS. Mechanistically, homodimerization of C/EBPα-p42 mediated its phosphorylation at the novel phosphorylation site S16, which promoted LLPS and subsequent AML cell differentiation. Finally, decreasing the endogenous C/EBPα-p30/C/EBPα-p42 ratio rescued the phase separation of C/EBPα in AML cells, which provided a new insight for the treatment of the AML.

Project description:LIN28 is an RNA binding protein with important roles in early embryo development by interaction with let-7 microRNA precursors or mRNAs in cytoplasm. Here, we showed novel roles of LIN28 within the nucleolus in cultured pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). We found Lin28 deficiency led to activation of the 2-cell (2C)-like transcriptional program and repression of the ES cell program. Mechanistically, LIN28 maintains a peri-nucleolar heterochromatin-residing complex to repress 2C activator Dux via association with NCL and TRIM28. Meanwhile, it promotes liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of nucleolar proteins FBL and NCL to support nucleolar function through its RNA binding domains and intrinsic disordered regions. These findings elucidate novel roles for nucleolar LIN28 in coordinately regulating the ES/2C state homeostasis, and shed light on RNA binding protein-mediated nucleolar phase separation mechanisms in PSCs and early embryo development.

Project description:Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important mechanism of metastasis and malignant progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the transcriptional regulation mechanism of EMT remains poorly understood. Some transcriptional co-activators can form phase-separated condensates at super-enhancers that compartmentalize and concentrate the transcription apparatus to drive robust gene expression. Here, we demonstrate that Twist1 and YY1, interact with p300 and form phase-separated local high-concentration interaction hubs at super-enhancers of miRNA-9 and activate its expression to induce EMT and promote the malignant evolution of HCC. Phase separation disrupted by metformin perturbs Twist–YY1 condensates, thereby inhibiting EMT. To explore how the Twist1 complex regulates miR-9 expression by binding SE region, we performed Twist1 ChIP-seq combined with H3K4me3, H3K4me1, H3K27ac, DNAse, p300, and YY1 ChIP-seq data to detect the SEs of miR-9. After metformin treatment, the peak of Twist1/YY1 on miR-9 SE decreased. Metformin specifically affects the binding of Twist1/YY1 to the miR-9 SE region. 1,6-hexanediol, as an aliphatic alcohol, can weaken hydrophobic interactions and inhibit liquid–liquid phase separation by disrupting hydrophobic interactions. In order to prove Twist1/YY1 interaction at these sites requires phase separation, we detect the accessibility of miR-9 SE regions in 1,6-hexanediol-treated cells. The result showed a general decrease in the accessibility of miR-9 super-enhancer regions in 1,6-hexanediol-treated cells and Twist1 / YY1 combines the SE region of miR-9 in the form of phase separation.

Project description:Trimethylated histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) is a repressive histone marker that regulates a variety of developmental processes, including those that determine flowering time. However, relatively little is known about the mechanism of how H3K27me3 is recognized to regulate transcription. We identified BAH domain-containing transcriptional regulator 1 (BDT1) as an H3K27me3 reader. BDT1 is responsible for preventing flowering by suppressing the expression of flowering genes. Mutation of the H3K27me3 recognition sites in the BAH domain disrupted the binding of BDT1 to H3K27me3, leading to de-repression of H3K27me3-enriched flowering genes and an early-flowering phenotype.
