Histone H2AK119 Mono-Ubiquitination is Essential for Polycomb-Mediated Transcriptional Repression

ABSTRACT: The major function of Polycomb group proteins (PcG) is to maintain transcriptional repression to preserve cellular identity. This is exerted by two distinct repressive complexes, PRC1 and PRC2, that modify histones by depositing H2AK119ub1 and H3K27me3, respectively. Both complexes are essential for development and are deregulated in several types of human tumors. PRC1 and PRC2 exist in different variants and show a complex regulatory cross-talk. However, the contribution that H2AK119ub1 plays in mediating PcG repressive functions remains largely controversial. Coupling an inducible system with the expression of a fully catalytic inactive RING1B mutant, we demonstrated that H2AK119ub1 deposition is essential to maintain PcG-target genes repressed in ESC. Loss of H2AK119ub1 induced a rapid displacement of PRC2 activity and a loss of H3K27me3 deposition. This affected both PRC2.1 and PRC2.2 variants and further correlated with a strong displacement and destabilization of canonical PRC1. Finally, we find that variant PRC1 forms can sense H2AK119ub1 deposition, which contributes to their stabilization specifically at sites where this modification is highly enriched. Overall our data place H2AK119ub1 deposition as central hub that mount PcG repressive machineries to preserve cell transcriptional identit

BAP1 activity regulates Polycomb occupancy and global chromatin condensation counteracting diffuse PCGF3/5-dependent H2AK119ub1 deposition

Project description:BAP1 is recurrently mutated or deleted in a large number of diverse cancer types, including mesothelioma, uveal melanoma and hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma. BAP1 is the catalytic subunit of the Polycomb Repressive De-Ubiquitination complex (PR-DUB) which removes PRC1 mediated H2AK119ub1. We and others have shown that H2AK119ub1 is essential for maintaining transcriptional repression and contributes to PRC2 chromatin recruitment. However, the precise relationship between BAP1 and PRC1 remains mechanistically elusive. Using embryonic stem cells, we show that a major function of BAP1 is to restrict H2AK119ub1 deposition to target sites. This increases the stability of PcG complexes with their targets and prevents diffuse accumulation of H2AK119ub1 and H3K27me3 modifications. Loss of BAP1 results in a broad increase in H2AK119ub1 levels that are primarily dependent on PCGF3/5-PRC1 complexes with a mechanism that is reminiscent of X-chromosome inactivation. Increased genome-wide H2AK119ub1 levels titrates away PRC2 from its targets and stimulates diffuse H3K27me3 accumulation across the genome. This decreases the activity of PcG repressive machineries at physiological targets and induces a general compaction of the entire chromatin. Our findings provide evidences for a unifying model that resolves the apparent contradiction between BAP1 catalytic activity and its role in vivo, uncovering molecular vulnerabilities that could be useful for BAP1-related pathologies.

Deletion of RING1A/B and loss of H2AK119ub1 affects PRC2 occupancy and H3K27me3 genome-wide

Project description:The chromatin modifying activities inherent to polycomb repressive complexes PRC1 and PRC2 play an essential role in gene regulation, cellular differentiation, and development. However, the mechanisms by which these complexes recognize their target sites and function together to form repressive chromatin domains remain poorly understood. Recruitment of PRC1 to target sites has been proposed to occur through a hierarchical process, dependent on the prior nucleation of PRC2 and placement of H3K27me3. Here, using a de novo targeting assay in mouse embryonic stem cells we unexpectedly discover that PRC1-dependent H2AK119ub1 leads to the recruitment of PRC2 and H3K27me3 to effectively initiate a polycomb domain. Genetic ablation of catalytic subunit of the PRC1 complex (RINGA/B) and ChIP-seq analysis of PRC1 and PRC2 components confirmed genome-wide decreases in PRC2 occupancy and H3K27me3 levels at PRC target sites. This activity is restricted to variant PRC1 complexes and genetic ablation experiments reveal that targeting of the variant PCGF1/PRC1 complex by KDM2B to CpG islands is required for polycomb domain formation and normal development. Together these observations provide a surprising new PRC1-dependent logic for PRC2 occupancy and polycomb domain formation. RING1A-/-;RING1Bfl/fl ES cells were treated with 800M-BM-5M tamoxifen for 48hours and compared to untreated control cells by ChIP-seq for RING1B, SUZ12, EZH2 and H3K27me3.

Variant PCGF1-PRC1 links PRC2 recruitment with induced transcriptional inactivation at target genes [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Polycomb repressive complexes-1 and -2 (PRC1 and 2), silence developmental genes in spatiotemporally regulated manner during metazoan embryogenesis. How PcG proteins contribute to down-regulation of target genes upon differentiation, however, remains elusive. Here, by differentiating embryonic stem cells into embryoid bodies, we reveal a crucial role of a PCGF1 (Polycomb group RING finger protein 1)-containing variant PRC1 complex (PCGF1-PRC1) to facilitate induced down-regulation of a group of genes. Binding of PCGF1-PRC1 results in down-regulation of transcriptional activity, followed by Histone H2AK119 mono-ubiquitination (H2AK119ub1) and subsequent recruitment of PRC2, to initiate PcG-repressive domain formation. Based on these findings, we propose that PCGF1-PRC1 mediates establishment of PcG-repressive domains at target genes during differentiation.

Polycomb complexes in skin epithelium development I

Project description:Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are essential epigenetic transcriptional regulators. Traditionally, PcG proteins function as two multi-subunit complexes, Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) and PRC2, which largely overlap in their genomic binding and cooperate to establish repressive chromatin domains demarcated by H2AK119ub and H3K27me3. Here, using the developing skin epidermis as a paradigm, we uncovered a functional redundancy between Polycomb complexes in the repression of unwanted non-lineage genes.

Multi-omics characterization of the USP7 regulatory circuitry reveals control of H2AK119ub1 dosage uncoupled from H3K27me3 .

Project description:Ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7) has been implicated in multiple cellular and developmental pathways. However, its molecular network remains poorly defined. We combined quantitative proteomics, transcriptomics and epigenomics to define the core USP7 regulome. We found that USP7 forms a regulatory hub, linking processes involved in the packaging, maintenance and expression of the genome. Further analysis revealed that USP7 regulates non-canonical Polycomb repressive complexes 1 (ncPRC1s) but affects neither canonical PRC1s nor PRC2s. By stabilizing key subunits of PRC1.6 and to a lesser extend PRC1.1, USP7 acts as a rheostat that modulates the global level of H2AK119ub11. Unexpectedly, changes in the genomic deposition of H2AK119ub11 are uncoupled from H3K27me3, challenging prevalent models for Polycomb repression. Indeed, a complete loss of PRC1 and H2AK119ub1 has only a highly restricted effect on H3K27me3. Besides defining the organizational principles of the USP7 regulome, our results reveal selective control of H2AK119ub1 dosage that is disconnected from H3K27me3.
