Project description:PA1 has been identified as a component of a MLL3/4-containing histone methyltransferase complex. PA1 directly interacts with PTIP but not with other complex components. Since biological functions of PA1 are unknown, we used microarrays to determine which genes are regulated by PA1. To identify PA1-regulated genes, immortalized PA1 conditional knockout PA1loxP/loxP MEFs were infected with retroviruses expressing either Cre recombinase or vector alone. We prepared duplicated RNAs from either vector or Cre infected cells (PA1+/+ or PA1-/-) for 4 affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Class-switch recombination (CSR) diversifies antibodies for productive immune responses while maintaining stability of the B cell genome. Transcription at the immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) locus targets CSRassociated DNA damage and is promoted by the BRCT domain-containing PTIP protein. Although PTIP is a unique component of the MLL3/MLL4 chromatin-modifying complex, the mechanisms for how PTIP promotes transcription remain unclear. Here we dissect the minimal structural requirements of PTIP and its different protein complexes using quantitative proteomics in primary lymphocytes. We find that PTIP functions in transcription and CSR separately from its association with the MLL3/MLL4 complex and from its localization to sites of DNA damage. We identify a tandem BRCT domain of PTIP that is sufficient for CSR and identify PA1 as its main functional protein partner. Collectively, we provide genetic and biochemical evidence that a PTIP-PA1 subcomplex functions independently from the MLL3/MLL4 complex to mediate transcription during CSR. These results further our understanding of how multi-functional chromatin-modifying complexes are organized by subcomplexes that harbor unique and distinct activities.

Project description:Programmed genetic rearrangements in lymphocytes require transcription at antigen receptor genes to promote accessibility for initiating double-strand break (DSB) formation critical for DNA recombination and repair. Here we show that activated B cells deficient in the PTIP component of the MLL3 (mixed-lineage leukemia 3) /MLL4 complex display impaired histone methylation (H3K4me3) and transcription initiation of downstream switch regions at the immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) locus leading to defective immunoglobulin class-switching. We also show that PTIP accumulation at DSBs contributes to class-switch recombination (CSR) and genome stability independently from Igh switch transcription. These results demonstrate that PTIP promotes specific chromatin changes that control the accessibility of the Igh locus to CSR, and suggest a non-redundant role for the MLL3/MLL4 complex in altering antibody effector function.

Project description:Blood-testis barrier (BTB) is essential to the microenvironment of spermatogenesis, and Sertoli cells provide the cellular basis for BTB construction. Numerous nuclear transcription factors have been identified to be vital for the proper functions of Sertoli cells. PA1 has been reported to play important roles during diverse biological processes, while its potential function in male reproduction is still unknown. Here, we show that PA1 was highly expressed in human and mouse testis and predominantly localized in the nuclei of Sertoli cells. Sertoli cell-specific Pa1 knockout resulted in azoospermia-like phenotype in mice. The knockout of this gene lead to multiple defects in spermatogenesis, such as the disorganization of cytoskeleton at basal and apical ectoplasmic specialization and the disruption of the BTB. Further transcriptomic analysis together with Cut-Tag results of PA1 in Sertoli cells revealed that PA1 could affect the expression of a subset of genes which are essential for the normal functions of Sertoli cells including those genes associated with actin organization and cellular junction such as Connexin43 (Cx43). We further demonstrated that the expression of Cx43 depended on the interaction between JUN, one of the AP-1 complex transcription factors, and PA1. Overall, our findings firstly revealed that PA1 is essential to the maintaining of BTB integrity in Sertoli cells, it regulates BTB construction-related gene expression via interacting a transcription factor, thus providing a potential diagnostic or even therapeutic target for some azoospermia patients.
