Ubiquitylated H2A.Z nucleosomes are associated with nuclear architectural proteins and global transcriptional silencing

ABSTRACT: H2A.Z mono-ubiquitylation has been linked to transcriptional repression, but the mechanisms involved are not well understood. To address this, we developed a biotinylation-based approach to purify ubiquitylated H2A.Z (H2A.Zub) mononucleosomes for biochemical and genomics analyses. We observe that H2A.Zub nucleosomes are enriched for the repressive histone post-translational modification H3K27me3, but depleted of H3K4 methylation and other modifications associated with active transcription. ChIP-Seq analyses reveal that H2A.Zub-nucleosomes are enriched over non-expressed genes, and suggest that it is the relative ratio of ubiquitylated to non-ubiquitylated H2A.Z, rather than absolute presence or absence of H2A.Z ubiquitylation, that correlates with gene silencing. Finally, we observe that H2A.Zub-eniched mononucleosomes preferentially co-purify with transcriptional silencing factors as well as proteins involved in higher order chromatin organization such as CTCF and cohesin. Collectively, these results suggest an important role for H2A.Z ubiquitylation in mediating transcriptional regulation through its recruitment of transcriptional silencing factors and nuclear architectural proteins.

H2A.Z.1 mono-ubiquitylation antagonizes BRD2 to maintain poised chromatin in ESCs [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Histone variant H2A.Z occupies the promoters of active and poised, bivalent genes in ESCs to regulate developmental programs, yet how it contributes to these contrasting states is poorly understood. Here, we investigate the function of H2A.Z.1 mono-ubiquitylation (H2A.Z.1ub) by mutation of the PRC1 target residues (H2A.Z.1K3R3). We show that H2A.Z.1K3R3 is properly incorporated at target promoters in murine ESCs (mESCs), however, loss of mono-ubiquitylation leads to de-repression of bivalent genes, loss of Polycomb binding, and to faulty lineage commitment. Using quantitative proteomics, we find that tandem bromodomain proteins, including the BET family member Brd2, are enriched in H2A.Z.1 chromatin. We further show that Brd2 is gained at de-repressed promoters in H2A.Z.1K3R3 mESCs whereas Brd2 inhibition restores gene silencing at these sites. Together, our study reveals an antagonistic relationship between H2A.Z.1ub and Brd2 to regulate the transcriptional balance at bivalent genes to enable proper execution of developmental programs. ChIP-Seq analysis on mouse embryonic stem cells harboring H2A.Z or H2A.Z.K3R3 (3 C-terminal lysines mutated to arginines) tagged with YFP, in the presence of a knockdown hairpin targeting the endogenous H2A.Z transcript.

Integrative proteomics reveals increased non-degradative ubiquitylation during CD4+ T cell activation

Project description:In spite of gathering evidence that ubiquitylation can direct non-degradative outcomes, most investigations of ubiquitylation in T cells remain focused on degradation. Here we integrated proteomic and transcriptomic datasets to establish a framework for predicting degradative or non-degradative outcomes of ubiquitylation in primary CD4+ T cells. Di-glycine remnant proteomics revealed ubiquitylated proteins, while whole cell proteomic and transcriptomic data were used to predict whether ubiquitylated proteins showed evidence of degradation. Applying this analysis to ubiquitylated proteins with functions in TCR signaling led us to the prediction that early T cell activation promotes increased non-degradative ubiquitylation. Supporting this, we observed an increase in non-proteasome targeted K29, K33 and K63 polyubiquitin chains during T cell activation, while K48 chains appeared unchanged. This study reveals over 1,200 proteins that are ubiquitylated in primary CD4+ T cells and supports the relevance of non-proteasomally targeted ubiquitin chains in T cell signaling.

Genomic maps of homotypic H2Av, heterotypic H2Av, input and 80mM salt soluble chromatin from Drosophila S2 cells

Project description:Nucleosomes that contain the histone variant H2A.Z are enriched around transcriptional start sites in many organisms. A single octameric nucleosome can contain two H2A.Z histones (homotypic) or one H2A.Z and one canonical H2A (heterotype). We generated high-resolution maps of homotypic and heterotypic Drosophila H2A.Z (H2Av) nucleosomes. Although homotypic and heterotypic H2Av nucleosomes map throughout most of the genome, homotypic nucleosomes are enriched and heterotypic nucleosomes are depleted downstream of active promoters and intron/exon boundaries. The distribution of homotypic H2A.Z nucleosomes resembles that of salt-soluble nucleosomes and shows evidence of displacement during transcriptional elongation. Homotypic nucleosomes are also depleted downstream of paused polymerases, where salt-soluble nucleosomes are conspicuously depleted. Our results suggest a model whereby H2A.Z enrichment patterns result from different structural interactions within the core of heterotypic and homotypic nucleosomes following disruption during transcriptional elongation. We analyzed two replicates for input, heterotypic and homotypic purifications. We sequenced one library for each of the single H2Av pulldown and 80mM salt soluble samples.
