ABSTRACT: Analysis of histone acetyl transferases (HATs) from the MYST and GNAT families in S. pombe to identify functional differences or overlap with regard to gene expression. Mutations were made to Elp3 and Gcn5 (GNAT family), and to Mst2 (MYST family). Mutants showed distinct phenotypes which were repressed or enhanced by mutant combinations. Experiment Overall Design: Mutations were made to Elp3 and Gcn5 (GNAT family), and to Mst2 (MYST family) in S. pombe. RNA was extracted from the various mutants and hybridized on Affymetrix arrays.

Mutations were made to Gcn5 (GNAT family), and to Mst2 (MYST family) in S. pombe. A treatment of 1M KCl was applied for 60min to some samples. RNA was extracted from the various mutants and hybridized on Eurogentec arrays.

Project description:Evidence suggests that the TAF1 subunit of TFIID is a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that is functionally redundant with the Gcn5 HAT of the SAGA and ADA complexes. Here we test a number of predictions of this hypothesis by examining the in vivo histone acetylation targets of TAF1 and Gcn5, and re-examining the basis for the reported genome-wide functional redundancy between TAF1 and Gcn5. Our findings do not support a number of basic tenets of the hypothesis, thus bringing into question the physiological presence of any TAF1 HAT function in yeast. We have also conducted genome-wide expression profiles of numerous other HATs (Elp3, Hat1, Hpa2, Sas3) in an effort identify potential functional redundancy between TAF1 and other HATs, and find none. Further investigation of TAF1 and the Esa1 HAT re-affirm a link between histone H4 acetylation by Esa1, and TFIID binding via interactions with acetylated histone H4-binding protein Bdf1. Keywords: ChIP-chip, genetic modification

Project description:NUP98 fusion oncoproteins (FOs) are a hallmark of childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and drive leukemogenesis through liquid-liquid phase separation-mediated nuclear condensate formation. However, the composition and consequences of NUP98 FO-associated condensates are incompletely understood. Here we show that MYST family histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex proteins including MOZ/KAT6A, HBO1/KAT7, and the common MOZ/HBO1 complex subunit BRPF1 associate with NUP98 FOs on chromatin and within condensates. MYST HATs are molecular dependencies in NUP98-rearranged (NUP98-r) leukemia, and genetic inactivation or pharmacologic inhibition of Moz and Hbo1 impairs NUP98-r cell fitness. MOZ/HBO1 inhibition decreased global H3K23ac levels, displaced NUP98::HOXA9 from chromatin at the Meis1 locus, and led to myeloid cell differentiation. Additionally, MOZ/HBO1 inhibition decreased leukemic burden in multiple NUP98-r leukemia xenograft mouse models, synergized with Menin inhibitor treatment, and was efficacious in Menin inhibitor-resistant cells. In summary, we show that MYST family HATs are therapeutically actionable dependencies in NUP98-r AML.

Project description:In a previous study, we found that wound-induced transcriptional expression is strongly correlated with an increase of the level of acetylation of the N-tails of histone 3. To investigate if the increase in histone acetylation is a prerequisite for the induction of wound-induced gene expression, we performed transcriptional profiling of wounded roots with and without treatment with γ-butyrolactone (MB3), a chemical inhibitor of GNAT-MYST family of histone acetyltransferase .
