ChIP-seq for RNAPII before and after transcription inhibition

ABSTRACT: The FACT (FAcilitates Chromatin Transactions) complex is a conserved complex that maintains chromatin structure on transcriptionally active genes. Consistent with this, FACT is enriched on highly expressed genes, but how it is targeted to these regions is unknown. In vitro, FACT binds destabilized nucleosomes, supporting the hypothesis that FACT is targeted to transcribed chromatin through recognition of RNA polymerase-disrupted nucleosomes. In this study, we used high resolution analysis of FACT occupancy in S. cerevisiae to test this hypothesis. We demonstrate that FACT interacts with nucleosomes in vivo and its interaction with chromatin is dependent on transcription by any of the three RNA polymerases. Deep sequencing of micrococcal nuclease (MNase)-resistant fragments shows that FACT-bound nucleosomes exhibit differing nuclease sensitivity compared to bulk chromatin, consistent with a modified nucleosome structure being the preferred ligand for this complex. Interestingly, a subset of FACT-bound nucleosomes may be “overlapping di-nucleosomes”, in which one histone octamer invades the ~147 bp territory normally occupied by the adjacent nucleosome. While the differing nuclease sensitivity of FACT-bound nucleosomes could also be explained by the demonstrated ability of FACT to alter nucleosome structure, transcription inhibition restores nuclease resistance suggesting that it is not due to FACT interaction alone. Collectively these results are consistent with a model in which FACT is targeted to transcribed genes through preferential interaction with RNA polymerase-disrupted nucleosomes.

Nucleosome recognition and DNA distortion by the Chd1 remodeler revealed at 2.6 Å resolution

Project description:Chromatin remodelers are ATP-dependent enzymes that reorganize nucleosomes within all eukaryotic genomes. The Chd1 remodeler specializes in shifting nucleosomes into evenly spaced arrays, a defining characteristic of chromatin in gene bodies that blocks spurious transcription initiation. Linked to some forms of autism and commonly mutated in prostate cancer, Chd1 is essential for maintaining pluripotency in stem cells. Here we report a complex of yeast Chd1 bound to a nucleosome in a nucleotide-free state, determined by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to 2.6 Å resolution. The structure shows a bulge of the DNA tracking strand where the ATPase motor engages the nucleosome, consistent with an initial stage in DNA translocation. Unlike other remodeler-nucleosome complexes, nucleosomal DNA compensates for the remodeler-induced bulge with a bulge of the complementary DNA strand one helical turn downstream from the ATPase motor. Unexpectedly, the structure also reveals an N-terminal binding motif, called ChEx, which binds on the exit-side acidic patch of the nucleosome. The ChEx motif can displace a LANA-based peptide from the acidic patch, which suggests a means by which Chd1 remodelers may block competing chromatin remodelers from acting on the opposite side of the nucleosome.

Asymmetric nucleosomes flank promoters in the budding yeast genome

Project description:Nucleosomes in active chromatin are dynamic, but whether they have distinct structural conformations is unknown. To identify nucleosomes with alternative structures genome-wide, we used H4S47C-anchored cleavage mapping, which revealed that nucleosomes at 5% of budding yeast nucleosome positions have asymmetric histone-DNA interactions. These asymmetric interactions are enriched at nucleosome positions that flank promoters. Micrococcal nuclease (MNase) sequence-based profiles of asymmetric nucleosome positions revealed a corresponding asymmetry in MNase protection near the dyad axis, suggesting that the loss of DNA contacts around H4S47 is accompanied by protection of the DNA from MNase. Chromatin immunoprecipitation mapping of selected nucleosome remodelers indicated that asymmetric nucleosomes are bound by the RSC chromatin remodeling complex, which is required for maintaining nucleosomes at asymmetric positions. These results imply that the asymmetric nucleosome-RSC complex is a metastable intermediate representing partial unwrapping and protection of nucleosomal DNA on one side of the dyad axis during chromatin remodeling. We have analyzed the chromatin landscape of the yeast genome using paired-end MNase-seq and the chromatin binding of yeast remodelers Swr1, Ino80 and RSC at base-pair resolution using native chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (N-ChIP-seq).

Insights into promoter chromatin remodeling from the structure of ISW1a complex bound to the dinucleosome

Project description:Nucleosomes, the basic repeating units of chromatin, form evenly spaced arrays inside the cell. Chromatin remodelers alter the positions of nucleosomes, and are vital in regulating chromatin organization and gene expression. Here we report the cryoEM structure of the chromatin remodeler ISW1a complex bound to the dinucleosome. Both subunits of the complex recognize one nucleosome. The motor subunit binds at the canonical position of the nucleosome, with two arginine anchors recognizing the acidic patch. The DNA-binding module interacts with the entry linker DNA at the nucleosome edge, consistent with the protein ruler model in nucleosome spacing. The Ioc3 subunit recognizes the disk face of the adjacent nucleosome, being important for the spacing activity in vitro, and for chromatin organization in vivo. Together, our findings illustrate a new mode of chromatin remodeling in the context of higher-order chromatin

Nucleosomes stabilize ssRNA-dsDNA triple helices in human cells

Project description:The molecular mechanism for ssRNA+dsDNA triple helix structure formation on chromatin are unclear. We analyzed the triplex-nucleosomes complex fomration in vitro and in vivo, and show that triplexes are stabilized by the nucleosomes. We developed a method to monitor nucleosome bound RNA triplexes in vivo, revealing that RNA binding maintained the nucleosomes on an accessible structure supporting a gene activating role of nucleosome-triplex complexes in cells.

Dynamics of chromatin maturation after genome replication

Project description:Replication of the eukaryotic genome occurs in the context of chromatin, a nucleoprotein packaging state consisting of repeating nucleosomes. Chromatin is commonly thought to carry epigenetic information from one generation to the next, although it is unclear how such information survives the disruptions of nucleosomal architecture that occur during genomic replication. Here, we sought to directly measure a key aspect of chromatin structure dynamics during replication â how rapidly nucleosome positions are established on the newly-replicated daughter genomes. By isolating newly-synthesized DNA marked with the nucleotide analogue EdU, we characterize nucleosome positions on both daughter genomes of budding yeast during a time course of chromatin maturation. We find that nucleosomes rapidly adopt their mid log positions at highly-transcribed genes, and that this process was impaired upon treatment with the transcription inhibitor thiolutin, consistent with a role for transcription in positioning nucleosomes in vivo. Additionally, experiments in the Hir1Î background reveal a role for HIR in nucleosome spacing. Using strand-specific EdU libraries, we characterize nucleosome positions on the leading and lagging strand daughter genomes, uncovering differences in chromatin maturation dynamics between the two daughter genomes at hundreds of genes. Our data define the maturation dynamics of newly-replicated chromatin, and support a role for transcription in sculpting the chromatin template. We have mapped changes in nucleosome positions on newly replicated DNA in a timecourse after genome replication. We have used Micrococcal Nuclease footprinting of cross linked chromatin to determine nucleosome positions and EdU (ethylene deoxy uridine) to mark nascent DNA strands. EdU incorporated into nascent DNA strands was biotinylated with Click chemistry and nascent DNA strand fragments were subsequently isolated using Streptavidin coated magnetic beads.

Regulation of nucleosome architecture and factor binding revealed by nuclease footprinting of the ESC genome

Project description:Functional interactions between gene regulatory factors and chromatin architecture have been difficult to directly assess. Here, we use micrococcal nuclease (MNase) footprinting to probe the functions of two chromatin remodeling complexes. By simultaneously quantifying alterations in small MNase footprints over the binding sites of 30 regulatory factors in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), we provide evidence that esBAF and Mbd3/NuRD modulate the binding of several regulatory proteins. In addition, we find that nucleosome occupancy is reduced at specific loci in favor of subnucleosomes upon depletion of esBAF, including sites of histone H2A.Z localization. Consistent with these data, we demonstrate that esBAF is required for normal H2A.Z localization in ESCs, suggesting esBAF either stabilizes H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes or promotes subnucleosome to nucleosome conversion by facilitating H2A.Z deposition. Therefore, integrative examination of MNase footprints reveals insights into nucleosome dynamics and functional interactions between chromatin structure and key gene regulatory factors. Examine three read size footprints from MNase-Seq in EGFP KD, Mbd3 KD, and Smarca4 KD mESCs using ChIP-Seq datasets.

MNase-seq analysis of Col-0 and chr11-1 chr17-1

Project description:Chromatin has a highly organized structure with the repeating nucleosome subunits. The position of nucleosomes on the chromatin is dynamically regulated by ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factors (remodelers), therefore providing specific epigenetic information. However, the in vivo nucleosome distribution pattern in plants and how plant remodelers control the pattern formation are not yet clear. Here we use the Micrococcal Nuclease digestion followed by deep sequencing (MNase-seq) assay to show the genome-wide nucleosome pattern in plants and the role of the Arabidopsis thaliana Imitation Switch (AtISWI) subfamily remodelers in the pattern formation. Our data revealed three patterns in wild-type plants: 1) Promoters have a relative low nucleosome density compared with gene bodies; 2) Nucleosome density is negatively associated with gene expression levels; 3) The evenly and periodically spaced nucleosomes in gene bodies are positively associated with gene expression levels. Double mutations in the AtISWI genes CHROMATIN REMODELING 11 (CHR11) and CHR17 resulted in loss of the evenly-spaced-nucleosome pattern in gene bodies, but did not affect nucleosome density, suggesting that the primary role of AtISWI is to slide nucleosomes in gene bodies for promotion of transcription. The overall design of the experiment: (1) Nuclear extraction from Col-0 and chr11-1 chr17-1. (2) MNase treatment. (3) DNA purification. (4) Library construction. (5) Deep sequencing. (6) Data analysis.
