The Pdx1 bound Swi/Snf chromatin remodeling complex regulates pancreatic progenitor cell proliferation and mature islet β cell function

ABSTRACT: Transcription factors positively and/or negatively impact gene expression by recruiting coregulatory factors, which interact through protein-protein binding. Here we demonstrate that mouse pancreas size and islet β cell function are controlled by the ATP-dependent Swi/Snf chromatin-remodeling coregulatory complex that physically associates with Pdx1, a diabetes-linked transcription factor essential to pancreatic morphogenesis and adult islet-cell function and maintenance. Early embryonic deletion of just the Swi/Snf Brg1 ATPase subunit reduced multipotent pancreatic progenitor cell proliferation and resulted in pancreas hypoplasia. In contrast, removal of both Swi/Snf ATPase subunits, Brg1 and Brm, were required to compromise adult islet β cell activity, which included whole animal glucose intolerance, hyperglycemia and impaired insulin secretion. Notably, lineage-tracing analysis revealed that these Swi/Snf deficient β cells lost the ability to produce insulin and other key metabolic genes, yet the expression levels of many essential islet-enriched transcription factors were unaffected. Swi/Snf was necessary for Pdx1 binding to the insulin enhancer, demonstrating the importance of this association in mediating chromatin accessibility. These results illustrate how fundamental the Pdx1:Swi/Snf coregulator complex is in the pancreas and we discuss how disrupting their association could influence Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes susceptibility.

Protein-protein interactions of BRG1 or BRG1-HSA in SW13 cells

Project description:The SWI/SNF complex remodels chromatin in an ATP-dependent manner through the ATPase subunits BRG1 and BRM. Chromatin remodeling alters nucleosome structure to change gene expression, however aberrant remodeling and gene expression can result in cancer. The function and localization on chromatin of the SWI/SNF complex depends on the protein makeup of the complex. Here we report the protein-protein interactions of wild-type BRG1 or mutant BRG1 in which the HSA domain has been deleted (BRG1-HSA). We demonstrate the interaction of BRG1 with most SWI/SNF complex members and a failure of a number of these members to interact with BRG1-HSA. These results demonstrate that the HSA domain of BRG1 is a critical interaction platform for the correct formation of SWI/SNF remodeling complexes.

Pancreas-specific Sirt1-deficiency in mice compromises beta-cell function without development of hyperglycemia

Project description:Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) has been reported to be a critical positive regulator of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells. The effects on islet cells and blood glucose levels when Sirt1 is deleted specifically in the pancreas are still unclear.This study examined islet glucose responsiveness, blood glucose levels, pancreatic islet histology and gene expression in Pdx1-Cre;Sirt1(ex4F/F) mice that have loss of function and loss of expression of Sirt1 specifically in the pancreas. We found that in the Pdx1-Cre;Sirt1(ex4F/F) mice, the relative insulin positive area and the islet size distribution were unchanged. However, beta-cells were functionally impaired, presenting with lower glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. This defect was not due to a reduced expression of insulin but was associated with a decreased expression of the glucose transporter Slc2A2/Glut2 and of the Glucagon like peptide-1 receptor (Glp1r) as well as with a marked down regulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperones that participate in the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) pathway. Counter intuitively, the Sirt1-deficient mice did not develop hyperglycemia. Pancreatic polypeptide (PP) cells were the only other islet cells affected, with reduced numbers in the Sirt1-deficient pancreas. This study provides new mechanistic insights showing that beta-cell function in Sirt1-deficient pancreas is affected due to altered glucose sensing and deregulation of the UPR pathway. Interestingly, we uncover a context in which impaired beta-cell function is not accompanied by increased glycemia. This points to a unique compensatory mechanism. Given the reduction in PP, investigation of its role in the control of blood glucose is warranted. To uncover other Sirt1-regulated mechanisms, we performed a gene expression microarray analysis comparing pancreata from the 6 month old Sirt1âdeficient mice to their controls (n=3 per group).

The SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex helps resolve R-loop-mediated transcription-replication conflicts

Project description:ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers are commonly mutated in human cancer. Mammalian SWI/SNF complexes comprise three conserved multi-subunit chromatin remodelers (cBAF, ncBAF and PBAF) that share the BRG1 (also known as SMARCA4) subunit responsible for the main ATPase activity. BRG1 is the most frequently mutated Snf2-like ATPase in cancer. Here we have investigated the role of SWI/SNF in genome instability, a hallmark of cancer cells, given its role in transcription, DNA replication and DNA damage repair. We show that depletion of BRG1 increases R-loops and R-loop-dependent DNA breaks, as well as transcription-replication conflicts. BRG1 colocalizes with R-loops and replication fork blocks, as determined by FANCD2 foci, with BRG1 depletion being epistatic to FANCD2 silencing. Our study, extended to other components of SWI/SNF, uncovers a key role of the SWI/SNF complex, in particular cBAF, in helping resolve R-loop-mediated transcription-replication conflicts; thus, unveiling a novel mechanism by which chromatin remodeling protects genome integrity.

Role of SWI/SNF in acute leukemia maintenance and enhancer-mediated Myc regulation [array]

Project description:Cancer cells frequently depend on chromatin regulatory activities to maintain a malignant phenotype. Here, we show that leukemia cells require the mammalian SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex for their survival and aberrant self-renewal potential. While Brg1, an ATPase subunit of SWI/SNF, is known to suppress tumor formation in several cancer types, we found that leukemia cells instead rely on Brg1 to support their oncogenic transcriptional program, which includes Myc as one of its key targets. To account for this context-specific function, we identify a cluster of lineage-specific enhancers located 1.7 megabases downstream of Myc that are occupied by SWI/SNF, as well as the BET protein Brd4. Brg1 is required at these distal elements to maintain transcription factor occupancy and for long-range chromatin looping interactions with the Myc promoter. Notably, these distal Myc enhancers coincide with a region that is focally amplified in 3% of acute myeloid leukemia. Together, these findings define a leukemia maintenance function for SWI/SNF that is linked to enhancer-mediated gene regulation, providing general insights into how cancer cells exploit transcriptional coactivators to maintain oncogenic gene expression programs In order to understanding the transcription regulation network downstream of Brg1 in murine AML, we performed microarray in murine MLL-AF9/NrasG12D cell line under the condition that Brg1 was suppressed by three independent shRNAs for 96h.

To define the rapid downregulated genes in response to JQ1, BET bromodomian inhibitor, in RN2 cell, we performed RNA-seq in RN2 exposing to 250nM JQ1 for 48h time course.

Xist RNA antagonizes the chromatin remodeler, BRG1, from the inactive X chromosome

Project description:The noncoding Xist RNA recruits silencing factors to the inactive X (Xi) and facilitates re-organization of Xi structure. Here, we examine the epigenomic landscape of the Xi and assess how Xist alters chromatin accessibility. Interestingly, Xist deletion propels selective chromatin re-accessibility on the Xi, affecting various Xi regions differentially. Re-accessibility is regulated by BRG1, an ATPase subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex. In vitro, RNA binding inhibits the nucleosome remodeling and ATPase activities of BRG1. In vivo, Xist directly interacts with BRG1 and expels BRG1 from the Xi. Xist ablation leads to a selective return of BRG1 in cis, emanating from pre-existing BRG1 sites that are Xist-free. BRG1's return correlates with cohesin re-binding and restoration of topologically associated domains (TADs), and results in formation of de novo Xi "superloops." Thus, Xist RNA binding inhibits BRG1's nucleosome remodeling activity and results in expulsion of the SWI/SNF complex from the Xi.

In order to study chromosome conformation of Myc locus and potential distal enhancer E1-E5 region in murine AML cells, we utilize the high resolution 4C-seq and analysis pipeline to search cis elements that physical interact with Myc and E1-E5 region through setting up two individual viewpoints in these two regions.
