The ISW1a ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler acts specifically on dinucleosomes to regulate early transcription [MNase-Seq]


ABSTRACT: The large family of ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers that regulate chromatin organization and composition are thought to act only on individual mononucleosomes. We discovered however that the yeast ISW1a remodeler has a much higher affinity for dinucleosomes and only efficiently converts ATP hydrolysis into nucleosome movement when bound to dinucleosomes, not mononucleosomes. The Ioc3 accessory subunit and its HLB DNA binding domain confer dinucleosome specificity onto the Isw1 catalytic subunit. Perturbation of ISW1a dinucleosome specificity by mutating Ioc3 interferes with its localization immediately downstream of the early transcription complex. ISW1a and NuA4, a histone acetyl transferase, and SWR1, a histone exchanger, are required together to slow early passage of RNA polymerase II. These findings provide new insights into the unusual specificity of a chromatin remodeler regulating the transition from transcription initiation to elongation and its functional interplay with other chromatin modifiers.
