The Upstream Sequence Transcription Complex Dictates Nucleosome Positioning and Promoter Accessibility at piRNA Genes in the C. elegans germ line [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:The piRNA pathway is a conserved germline-specific small RNA pathway that ensures genomic integrity and continued fertility. In C. elegans and other nematodes, Type-I piRNA precursor transcripts are expressed from >10,000 small, independently regulated genes clustered within two discrete domains of 1.5 and 3.5 MB on Chromosome IV. These large domains likely play a significant role in promoting germline-specific expression of piRNAs, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. By examining the chromatin environment specifically in isolated germ nuclei, we demonstrate that piRNA clusters are located in closed chromatin, and confirm the enrichment for the inactive histone modification H3K27me3. The piRNA biogenesis factor USTC (Upstream Sequence Transcription Complex) plays two roles – it promotes a strong association of nucleosomes throughout the domain, and it organizes the local nucleosome environment to direct the exposure of individual piRNA genes. Overall, this work reveals new insight into how chromatin state coordinates transcriptional regulation over large genomic domains, which has implications for understanding global genome organization in the germ line.

The Upstream Sequence Transcription Complex Dictates Nucleosome Positioning and Promoter Accessibility at piRNA Genes in the <i>C. elegans</i> Germ Line.

Project description:The piRNA pathway is a conserved germline-specific small RNA pathway that ensures genomic integrity and continued fertility. In C. elegans and other nematodes, Type-I piRNA precursor transcripts are expressed from over 10,000 small, independently regulated genes clustered within two discrete domains of 1.5 and 3.5 MB on Chromosome IV. These large clusters likely play a significant role in promoting germline-specific expression of piRNAs, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. By examining the chromatin environment specifically in isolated germ nuclei, we demonstrate that piRNA clusters are located in closed chromatin, and confirm the enrichment for the inactive histone modification H3K27me3. We further show that the piRNA biogenesis factor USTC (Upstream Sequence Transcription Complex) plays two roles - it promotes a strong association of nucleosomes throughout the piRNA clusters, and it organizes the local nucleosome environment to direct the exposure of individual piRNA genes. Overall, this work reveals new insight into how chromatin state coordinates transcriptional regulation over large genomic domains, which has implications for understanding global genome organization in the germ line.

Functional proteomics identified an upstream trancription complex promoting piRNA biogenesis

Project description:Here we used functional proteomics approaches to identify an upstream transcription complex (USTC) that is required for piRNA biogenesis. The complex contains PRDE-1, SNPC-4, TOFU-4, and TOFU-5, all of which are enriched on the two piRNA clusters on chromosome IV and form distinct piRNA foci in the nucleus.
