Project description:Proteins of the XPF-ERCC1 complex family play roles in DNA repair. Known members (four in mammals, two in budding yeast) recognize branched DNA structures and most bear nuclease activity. Here, we identified a new XPF-ERCC1-like complex important for meiotic crossovers production. Through a proteomic screen, we found that Zip2 and Spo16, two proteins important for CO formation in budding yeast, form a complex and share structural similarities with XPF-ERCC1. Zip2 XPF domain is important for CO formation and, in complex with Spo16, preferentially binds branched DNA molecules. However, Zip2-Spo16 lacks endonucleolytic activity. This suggests that Zip2-Spo16 works as a structural module that recognizes and stabilizes joint molecules to ensure CO formation. Moreover, Zip2-Spo16 forms a complex (called ZZS) with Zip4, another protein important for CO formation, which directly interacts with components of the chromosome axis, providing a link between recombination intermediates and the underlying chromosome structure.

Project description:The aim of this study was to uncover cell cycle dependent chromatin binding of H2A.Z and its histone chaperones. U2OS cells were stably transfected with Twin-Strep-tagged H2A.Z, ANP32e, or YL1 constructs, and WT cells were used as a negative/background control. U2OS cells were synchronised in G1 or G2-M phase using hydroxyurea or nocodazole, respectively, and protein-DNA complexes were isolated by affinity purification.

Project description:Turnover and exchange of nucleosomal histones and their variants, a process long believed to be static in post-replicative cells, remains largely unexplored in brain. Here, we describe a novel mechanistic role for HIRA (histone cell cycle regulator) and proteasomal degradation associated histone dynamics in the regulation of activity-dependent transcription, synaptic connectivity and behavior. We uncover a dramatic developmental profile of nucleosome occupancy across the lifespan of both rodents and humans, with the histone variant H3.3 accumulating to near saturating levels throughout the neuronal genome by mid-adolescence. Despite such accumulation, H3.3 containing nucleosomes remain highly dynamic–in a modification independent manner–to control neuronal- and glial- specific gene expression patterns throughout life. Manipulating H3.3 dynamics in both embryonic and adult neurons confirmed its essential role in neuronal plasticity and cognition. Our findings establish histone turnover as a critical, and previously undocumented, regulator of cell-type specific transcription and plasticity in mammalian brain. All ChIP-seq samples were generated to test the impact of neuronal activity/adult physiological plasticity on histone turnover in the central nervous system. This was tested in cultured neurons and astrocytes, FACS purified neurons or FACS purified Glia.

Project description:Expression levels of proteins and phosphoproteins, covering major cancer signaling pathways with a special focus on breast cancer biology, were obtained for a series of 109 breast cancer tumor specimens with positive estrogen receptor status. Tumor specimens from patients diagnosed with primary invasive breast carcinoma were collected at the time of surgery between 2008 and 2010 at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics / National Center for Tumor Diseases Heidelberg. None of the patients had received neoadjuvant therapy. Institutional Review Board approval was received as ethics vote no. S039/2008 and informed consent was obtained from all patients. Tumor specimens were processed within 20 min after surgery. Samples were stored snap frozen at -80M-BM-0C until further use. Only tumor samples with > 70% tumour cells and positive estrogen receptor status (immunoreactive score M-bM-^IM-% 3) as assessed by routine immunohistochemistry were selected for this study (n = 109). Tumor lysates were printed on a series of nitrocellulose coated glass slides and probed with 128 different primary antibodies directed against proteins and phosphoproteins of interest. Primary antibodies were selected to recognize proteins involved in major cancer signaling pathways with a special focus on breast cancer biology.

Project description:A small number of transcription factors, including Oct-3/4 and Sox2, constitute the transcriptional network that maintains pluripotency in embryonic stem (ES) cells. Previous reports suggested that some of these factors form a complex that binds the Oct-Sox element, a composite sequence consisting of closely juxtaposed Oct-3/4-binding and Sox2-binding sites. However, little is known regarding the components of the complex. In this study, we show that Sall4, a member of the Spalt-like family of proteins, directly interacts with Sox2 and Oct-3/4. Sall4 in combination with Sox2 or Oct-3/4 simultaneously occupies the Oct-Sox elements in mouse ES cells. Sall4 knockdown led to differentiation of ES cells. Overexpression of Sall4 in ES cells increased reporter activities in a luciferase assay when the Pou5f1- or Nanog-derived Oct-Sox element was included in the reporter. Microarray analyses revealed that Sall4 and Sox2 bound to the same genes in ES cells significantly more frequently than expected from random coincidence. These factors appeared to bind the promoter regions of a subset of the Sall4- and Sox2-double-positive genes in precisely similar distribution patterns along the promoter regions, suggesting that Sall4 and Sox2 associate with such Sall4/Sox2-overlapping genes as a complex. Importantly, gene ontology analyses indicated that the Sall4/Sox2-overlapping gene set is enriched for genes involved in maintaining pluripotency. Sall4/Sox2/Oct-3/4-triple-positive genes identified by referring to a previous study identifying Oct-3/4-bound genes in ES cells were further enriched for pluripotency genes than Sall4/Sox2-double-positive genes. These results demonstrate that Sall4 contributes to the transcriptional network operating in pluripotent cells, together with Oct-3/4 and Sox2. ChIP-on-chip experiments using anti-Sall4 or anti-Sox2 antibody were performed.

Project description:Spermiogenesis is marked by an almost genome-wide histone-to-protamine transition. Protamines are sperm-specific, small and highly positively charged proteins mainly responsible for genome compaction at this step. According to previous investigations from our lab and other groups, it is known that just before their removal, histones become hyperacetylated, which creates binding sites for the first bromodomain of a testis-specific member of the BET double bromodomain protein family, Brdt. Brdt’s first bromodomain is necessary for transition proteins (TPs) and PRMs incorporation and subsequent histone removal. Histone hyperacetylation, specifically on H4 lysine residues 5 and 8 which are recognized by Brdt, is controlled by a post-meiotic enhancer of CBP/p300 acetyltransferase activity, known as Nut. The process of TP assembly itself is dependent on a prior incorporation of a histone variant known as H2A.L.2, expressed in the same cells and at the same time as TPs. To characterize the proteins associating with TP2, we performed a mass spectrometry-based proteomics analysis of TP2 co-immunoprecipitations elutes from condensing spermatids extract. The immunoprecipitation was performed using extract from stages 12-16 spermatids from wild-type and H2A.L.2-KO mice. In parallel, immunopurifications were performed using a non-specific antibody (pre-immune goat serum) to allow the identification of proteins specifically purified with TP2 as opposed to proteins non-specifically precipitated.

Project description:Histone H3K4 methylation is a feature of meiotic recombination hotspots shared by many organisms including plants and mammals. Meiotic recombination is initiated by programmed double strand break (DSB) formation that in budding yeast is directed in gene promoters by histone H3K4 di/trimethylation. This histone modification is indeed recognized by Spp1, a PHD-finger containing protein that belongs to the conserved histone H3K4 methyltransferase Set1 complex. During meiosis, Spp1 binds H3K4me and recruits a DSB protein, Mer2, to promote DSB formation close to gene promoters. How Set1C and Mer2 related functions of Spp1 are connected is not clear.
