The SNF2 ATPase-independent function of the INO80 chromatin remodeler [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: In the multi-subunit INO80 chromatin-remodeling complex, all the auxiliary subunits assemble on three distinct domains of the catalytic chromatin remodeler INO80, which are N-terminal domain, HSA domain, and ATPase domain. While the ATPase and HSA domains and the auxiliary subunits assembling on the domains are known to be responsible for ATP hydrolysis and chromatin remodeling, it is largely unknown how the auxiliary subunits assembling on the INO80 N-terminal domain regulate the chromatin status. We identify both conserved and non-conserved auxiliary subunits of the INO80 complex in Arabidopsis thaliana. All the auxiliary subunits assemble on the conserved N-terminal domain, HSA domain, and ATPase domain of INO80 in Arabidopsis. While the auxiliary subunits assembling on the INO80 ATPase domain are required for the ATPase-dependent function, the INO80 N-terminal domain and the auxiliary subunits assembling on the domain can regulate gene expression and development even when the ATPase domain is absent, suggesting that INO80 has an ATPase-independent role. Furthermore, we find that a subclass of the COMPASS histone H3K4 methyltransferase complexes assemble on the INO80 N-terminal domain in the INO80 complex and function together with the other auxiliary subunits assembling on the INO80 N-terminal domain, thereby facilitating the ATPase-independent function. This study suggests that the conserved chromatin remodeler INO80 has an ATPase-independent role and demonstrates that the auxiliary subunits assembling on the INO80 N-terminal domain are required for the ATPase-independent role.

Project description:TFIID and SAGA complexes play a critical role in RNA Polymerase II dependent activated transcription. Although the two regulatory complexes are recruited to promoters by activation domain-interactions, the contribution of the different subunits or the different domains of the individual subunits is not completely understood. Taf9 is a shared subunit in TFIID and SAGA and has an N-terminal H3-like histone fold domain and a highly conserved C-terminal domain, Taf9-CTD. In this study, we have uncovered an essential role for the Taf9-CTD in transcriptional activation. The Taf9-CTD was not essential for the histone-fold mediated interaction with Taf6, SAGA and TFIID integrity or Gcn4 interaction with SAGA. Transcriptome profiling performed under Gcn4 activating conditions showed that the Taf9-CTD is required for expression of ~17% of the yeast genome and provides a coactivator function to recruit TFIID and SAGA complexes to the promoters in vivo during transcriptional activation. Integrated genome-wide data analysis showed that the Taf9-CTD is required for activation of promoters bound by several transcription factors indicating a broad role for Taf9-CTD in promoter occupancy of TFIID or SAGA complexes. Interestingly, only a subset of the promoters seemed to be dependent on the Taf9-CTD for assembly of the pre-initiation complex indicating redundancy in activator targets to assemble PIC in vivo. Together these results indicate that evolutionarily conserved domains in shared subunits of TFIID and SAGA have a pervasive role in genome-wide transcription. This GEO series consists of 14 microarray hybridizations using the Agilent two-color experiment with the Agilent Custom Saccharomyces cerevisiae 8x15k gene expression array. Four biological replicates each for the wild-type (TAF9), the mutant taf9-tCRD2 strain treated or untreated with SM, and the wild-type (TAF9) versus mutant taf9-tCRD2 treated with SM hybridized as dye-swapped replicates. Two biological replicates for wild-type (SPT20) vs spt20D strains treated with SM, and hybridized as dye-swapped replicates to identify the fraction of SAGA dependent genes under amino-acid starvation conditions. The overall aim was to identify genes dependent on the conserved C-terminal region domain of TAF9 and determine their dependence on the SAGA subunit Spt20 for expression.
