Dissecting regulatory pathways for transcription recovery following DNA damage reveals a non-canonical function of the histone chaperone HIRA

ABSTRACT: Transcription restart after a genotoxic challenge is a fundamental yet poorly understood process. Here, we dissect the interplay between transcription and chromatin restoration after DNA damage by focusing on the human histone chaperone complex HIRA, which is required for transcription recovery post UV. We demonstrate that HIRA is recruited to UV-damaged chromatin via the ubiquitin-dependent segregase VCP to deposit new H3.3 histones. However, this local activity of HIRA is dispensable for transcription recovery. Instead, we reveal a genome-wide function of HIRA in transcription restart that is independent of new H3.3 and not restricted to UV-damaged loci. HIRA coordinates with ASF1B to control transcription restart by two independent pathways: by stabilizing the associated subunit UBN2 and by reducing the expression of the transcription repressor ATF3. Thus, HIRA primes UV-damaged chromatin for transcription restart at least in part by relieving transcription inhibition rather than by depositing new H3.3 as an activating bookmark

The interactomes of Ubn1 and Ubn2 in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:Ubn1 and Ubn2 are essential subunits of the Histone Regulator A (HiRA) complex, the H3.3 histone variant chaperone for euchromatin. We pulled-down Ubn1 and Ubn2 with a C-terminal AVI-tag in mouse embryonic stem cells and identified, besides all known components of the complex, transcription factors that may play a role in the recruitment of HiRA to chromatin.

UBN1/2 of HIRA complex is responsible for recognition and deposition of H3.3 at cis-regulatory elements of genes in mouse ES cells [ChIP-seq]

Project description:In this study, we demonstrate that the UBN1 or UBN2 subunit is mainly responsible for specific recognition and direct binding of H3.3 by the HIRA complex, while the HIRA subunit can enhance the binding affinity of UBN1 toward H3.3, but Cabin1 subunit cannot. We also demonstrate that both Ala87 and Gly90 residues of H3.3 are required and sufficient for the specific recognition and binding by UBN1. ChIP-seq studies reveal that two independent HIRA complexes (UBN1-HIRA and UBN2-HIRA) can cooperatively deposit H3.3 to cis-regulatory regions, including active promoters and active enhancers in mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells. Importantly, disruption of histone chaperone activities of UBN1 and UBN2 by FID/AAA mutation results in the defect of H3.3 deposition at promoters of developmental genes involved in neural differentiation, and subsequently causes the failure of activation of these genes during neural differentiation of mES cells. Together, our results provide novel insights into the mechanism by which the HIRA complex specifically recognizes and deposits H3.3 at promoters and enhancers of developmental genes, which plays a critical role in neural differentiation of mES cells

RNA-seq analysis about Hira/Ubn1/Ubn2 knocked down samples

Project description:Histone chaperones are responsible for the deposition and removal of histones in chromatin and critical to prevent the abnormal activation of retrotransposable elements, which can be harmful to genome stability. One of the important histone chaperones is HIRA complex, which consists of Hira, Ubn1/Ubn2, and Cabin1 and mediates the installment of H3.3-H4 to nucleosome. We studied the function of members of HIRA complex in suppressing ERVs and found that histone H3.3 are enriched on all three classes of ERVs. Different HIRA members act distinctly in silencing ERVs. Ubn2 represses Class III ERVs including MERVL and Hira mainly silences Class I and Class II ERVs. Hira is enriched on Class I and II ERVs whereas its depletion affects the recruitment of H3.3. In contrast, Ubn2 is enriched on Class III ERVs, while its depletion influences H3.3 deposition and H3K9 methylation. This study extends our understandings of the mechanism by novel factors regulates ERVs.

RPA interacts with HIRA and regulates H3.3 deposition at gene regulatory elements in mammalian cells

Project description:The incorporation of histone variant H3.3 has been implicated in the formation and maintenance of specialized chromatin structure in metazoan cells. H3.3 is enriched in promoters, regulatory elements and genebody, and HIRA is required for H3.3 enrichment in these regions. But the mechanism of regulating H3.3 deposition by HIRA remains elusive. By screening a custom library of small hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) targeting known chromatin regulators, we identify single-stranded DNA binding protein RPA as being critically required for deposition of newly synthesized H3.3. RPA interacts with HIRA and H3.3 and co-localizes with HIRA at gene promoters and some regulatory elements across genome wide. Deletion of RPA dramatically reduces the enrichment of HIRA and newly synthesized H3.3 at these regions and reduced nascent anti-sense transcription. Taken together, our data demonstrate that RPA functions as new regulator of H3.3 deposition in promoter and some regulatory elements by recruiting HIRA and reveal a novel mechanism for RPA in chromatin and gene regulation.

Genome wide enrichment of H3.3 in WT and Hira-null embryonic stem cells and day 15 differentiated cardiac progenitor

Project description:HIRA is a histone chaperone that modulates gene expression through the deposition of H3.3. Conditional knockout of Hira in embryonic mouse hearts leads to cardiac septal defects. However, the effects of HIRA on the gene expression profile at earlier stages of cardiogenic mesoderm differentiation has not yet been studied. Differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) towards cardiomyocytes mimics some of these events and is an accepted model of these early stages. We performed RNA-Seq and H3.3-HA ChIP-seq on both WT and Hira-null mESCs and early cardiomyocyte progenitors of both genotypes. Analysis of our RNA-seq data showed differential down regulation of cardiovascular development-related genes in Hira-null cardiomyocytes compared to WT cardiomyocytes. Correlating these data with H3.3 enrichment showed that HIRA is required for the expression of the transcription factors (TFs) Gata6, Meis1 and Tbx2. These TFs displayed diminished HIRA-dependent H3.3 enrichment in their gene bodies or at their transcription start site in the absence of HIRA. Our results reveal new transcription factors through which HIRA influences cardiogenesis in vitro and potentially in vivo.

Factors influencing in vivo deposition of histone variants H3.1 and H3.3

Project description:Establishment of a proper chromatin landscape is central to genome function. Here, we explain H3 variant distribution by specific targeting and dynamics of deposition involving the CAF-1 and HIRA histone chaperones. Impairing replicative H3.1 incorporation via CAF-1 enables an alternative H3.3 deposition at replication sites via HIRA. Conversely, the H3.3 incorporation throughout the cell cycle via HIRA cannot be replaced by H3.1. ChIP-seq analyses reveal correlation between HIRA-dependent H3.3 accumulation and RNA pol II at transcription sites and specific regulatory elements, further supported by their biochemical association. Remarkably, the HIRA complex shows unique DNA binding properties and depleting HIRA increases DNA sensitivity to nucleases. We propose that protective gap-filling of naked DNA by HIRA leads to a broad distribution of H3.3, and HIRA association with Pol II ensures local H3.3 enrichment at specific sites.

Genome-wide maps of chromatin state for H3.3 tagged cells

Project description:The HIRA chaperone complex, comprised of HIRA, UBN1 and CABIN1, collaborates with histone-binding protein ASF1a to incorporate histone variant H3.3 into chromatin in a DNA replication-independent manner. To better understand its function and mechanism, we integrated HIRA, UBN1, ASF1a and histone H3.3 ChIP-seq and gene expression analyses. Most HIRA-binding sites co-localize with UBN1, ASF1a and H3.3 at active promoters and active and weak/poised enhancers. At promoters, binding of HIRA/UBN1/ASF1a correlates with the level of gene expression. HIRA is required for deposition of histone H3.3 at its binding sites. There are marked differences in nucleosome and co-regulator composition at different classes of HIRA-bound regulatory site. Underscoring this, we report novel physical interactions between the HIRA complex and transcription factors, a chromatin insulator and an ATP-dependent chromatin-remodelling complex. Our results map the distribution of the HIRA chaperone across the chromatin landscape and point to different interacting partners at functionally distinct regulatory sites.
