Active and repressed chromatin domains exhibit distinct nucleosome segregation during DNA replication

ABSTRACT: Chromatin domains and their associated structures must be faithfully inherited through cellular division to maintain cellular identity. Yet, accessing the localized strategies preserving chromatin domain inheritance, specifically the transfer of parental, pre-existing nucleosomes with their associated post-translational modifications (PTMs) during DNA replication is challenging in living cells. We devised an inducible, proximity-dependent labeling system to irreversibly mark replication-dependent H3.1 and H3.2 histone-containing nucleosomes at single desired loci in mouse embryonic stem cells such that their fate after DNA replication could be followed. Strikingly, repressed chromatin domains are preserved through the local re-deposition of parental nucleosomes. In contrast, nucleosomes decorating active chromatin domains do not exhibit such preservation. Notably, altering cell fate leads to an adjustment in the positional inheritance of parental nucleosomes that reflects the corresponding changes in chromatin structure. These findings point to important mechanisms that contribute to parental nucleosome segregation to preserve cellular identity.

Inheritance of Repressed Chromatin Domains during S-phase Requires the Histone Chaperone NPM1

Project description:The epigenetic process safeguards cell identity during cell division through the inheritance of appropriate gene expression profiles. We demonstrated previously that parental nucleosomes are inherited by the same chromatin domains during DNA replication only in the case of repressed chromatin. We now show that this specificity is conveyed by NPM1, a histone H3/H4 chaperone. Proteomic analyses of late S-phase chromatin revealed NPM1 in association with both H3K27me3, an integral component of facultative heterochromatin and MCM2, an integral component of the DNA replication machinery; moreover NPM1 interacts directly with PRC2 and with MCM2. Given that NPM1 is essential, the inheritance of repressed chromatin domains was examined anew using mESCs expressing an auxin-degradable version of endogenous NPM1. Upon NPM1 degradation, cells accumulated in S-phase of the cell-cycle and parental nucleosome inheritance from repressed chromatin domains was markedly compromised. Appropriate inheritance required the NPM1 acidic patches that function in chaperone activity, pointing to NPM1 being integral to the epigenetic process.

Stable inheritance of H3.3-containing nucleosomes during mitotic cell divisions

Project description:It is known that newly synthesized H3.1/H3.2 and H3.3 histones, differing by four or five amino acids, are assembled into nucleosomes via replication-coupled and replication-independent pathways, respectively. However, it is not clear how parental H3.3 is transferred following DNA replication, especially when compared to H3.1. Here, we show that parental H3.3, like H3.1, are stably transferred into daughter cells. Moreover, Mcm2, Pole3 and Pole4, proteins known to engage in parental histone transfer based upon analysis of parental histone modifications, participate in the transfer of H3.3 following DNA replication. Lastly, we found that Mcm2, Pole3 and Pole4 mutants defective in parental histone transfer show defects in chromosome segregations. We propose that parental H3.3 is also stably transferred into daughter cells, contributing to the epigenetic memory of gene expression and the maintenance of genome stability.

Quantification of histone H3 and H4 modifications by mass spectrometry in wildtype and MCM2-2A mutants of mice ESCs

Project description:During DNA replication modified parental histones H3-H4 are segregated almost symmetrically to the two daughter DNA strands enabling mitotic inheritance of histone PTMs. Whether heritable histone modifications confer epigenetic regulation by maintaining chromatin states and gene expression is unclear. Using MCM2 histone-binding mutant embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and mass spectrometry, we show that asymmetric segregation of parental histones to the leading strand causes imbalanced inheritance of histone H3K27 methylations to daughter cells.

Recycling of parental histones preserves the epigenetic landscape during embryonic development (STRIPE-seq)

Project description:Epigenetic inheritance during DNA replication requires an orchestrated assembly of nucleosomes from parental and newly synthesized histones. We analyzed Drosophila HisC mutant embryos harboring a deletion of all canonical histone genes, in which nucleosome assembly relies on parental histones from cell cycle 14 onwards. Lack of new histone synthesis and parental histone recycling leads to more accessible chromatin and reduced nucleosome occupancy. This leads to upregulated and spurious transcription, whereas the control of the developmental transcriptional program is partially maintained. Importantly, the genomic positions of modified parental H2A, H2B, and H3 are restored during DNA replication. Therefore, the results suggest that parental histones with active or repressive marks are recycled to preserve the epigenetic landscape during DNA replication in vivo.

Specialized replication of heterochromatin domains ensures self-templated chromatin assembly and epigenetic inheritance [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Heterochromatin domains defined by distinct histone methylation patterns are a major feature of mammalian genomes. Epigenetic pathways ensure stable heterochromatin inheritance through cell division to prevent the expression of lineage-inappropriate genes and defects in this process can lead to many diseases including cancer. Previous studies have shown that heterochromatin maintenance requires a critical threshold of methylated histones, but how modified parental histones are transferred to daughter strands during DNA replication is unclear. We find that heterochromatin domains are specialized replication zones enriched in replisome components, which load factors that help retain parental histones. This mechanism is further supported by the boundary elements surrounding the heterochromatin domains. DNA replication is thus coordinated with histone preservation to facilitate epigenetic inheritance of heterochromatin.

Density and methylation state of CpG dinucleotides define histone variant specific retention of nucleosomes in mouse spermatozoa

Project description:Nucleosomes are the principal packaging units of chromatin and critical for gene regulation and genome stability. In mammals, a subset of nucleosomes fail to be replaced by protamines during spermatogenesis and are retained in mature spermatozoa providing opportunities for paternal epigenetic transmission. In humans, the remaining 10% localize at regulatory elements of genes. To assess evolutionary conservation and to dissect the molecular logic underlying nucleosome retention, we determined the genome wide nucleosome occupancy in mouse spermatozoa that only contain 1% residual histones. In striking contrast to mammalian somatic cells and haploid round spermatids, we observe high enrichment of nucleosomes at CpG-rich sequences throughout the genome, at conserved regulatory sequences as well as at intra- and intergenic regions and repetitive DNA. This preferred occupancy occurs mutually exclusive with DNA methylation both in mouse and human sperm. At unmethylated CpG-rich sequences, residing nucleosomes are largely composed of the H3.3 histone variant, and trimethylated at lysine 4 (H3K4me3). Both canonical H3.1/H3.2 and H3.3 variant histones are present at promoters marked by Polycomb-mediated H3K27me3, which is strongly predictive for gene repression in pre-implantation embryos. Our data indicate important roles of DNA sequence composition, DNA methylation, variant H3.3 and canonical H3.1/H3.2 histones and associated modifications in nucleosome retention versus eviction during the histone-to-protamine remodeling process in elongating spermatids and potentially in epigenetic inheritance by nucleosomes between generations.
