Mcm2 promotes stem cell differentiation via its ability to bind H3-H4 (ChIP-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Mcm2, a subunit of the Mcm2-7 helicase best known for its role in DNA replication, contains a histone binding motif that facilitates the transfer of parental histone following DNA replication. Here we show that Mcm2 is important for the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. Mcm2-2A mutation defective in histone binding impairs differentiation and programmatic changes in gene expression and histone modifications during differentiation. Mcm2 localizes at the transcription starting sites and the binding of Mcm2 at gene promoters is disrupted in both Mcm2-2A ES cells and neuro-precursor cells (NPCs). Reduced Mcm2 binding in Mcm2-2A ES cells correlates with decreased chromatin accessibility at bivalent chromatin domains containing repressive H3K27me3 and active H3K4me3 modifications in NPCs. Together, our studies reveal a novel function of Mcm2 in ES differentiation, likely through manipulating chromatin landscape at bivalent chromatin domains.

Proper parental histone allocation is required for mouse embryonic stem cell differentiation and histone post-transcription modification inheritance

Project description:To understand whether parental histone PTM landscape plays roles in cell differentiation, we perturbed parental histone PTM allocation by mutating histone chaperone MCM2 on its histone binding domain (MCM2-2A mutation), disrupted only the histone transferring of MCM2 protein in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Combining single-cell transcriptomics and epigenomics with lineage barcoding, we found that MCM2-2A mutant ESCs cannot be fully differentiated to neuronal precursor cells (NPCs), causing by the redistribution of H3K27me3, and subsequently NPC related gene expression. Here, we show that the parental histone allocation plays an important role in the establishment of chromatin landscapes, altering ESC differentiational potential, shaping expression programs and cell heterogeneity.

Symmetric inheritance of parental histones governs epigenome maintenance and stem cell identity

Project description:Modified parental histones are segregated symmetrically to daughter DNA strands during replication and inherited through mitosis. How this may sustain the epigenome and cell identity remains unknown. Here, we show that transmission of histone-based information during replication maintains epigenome fidelity and embryonic stem cell plasticity. Asymmetric segregation of parental histones H3-H4 in MCM2-2A mutants compromised mitotic inheritance of histone modifications and globally altered the epigenome. This included widespread spurious deposition of repressive modifications, suggesting elevated epigenetic noise. Moreover, H3K9me3 loss at repeats caused de-repression and H3K27me3 redistribution across bivalent promoters correlated with misexpression of developmental genes. MCM2-2A mutation challenged dynamic transitions in cellular states across the cell cycle, enhancing naïve pluripotency and reducing lineage priming in G1. Further, developmental competence was diminished, correlating with impaired exit from pluripotency. Collectively, this argues that epigenetic inheritance of histone modifications maintains a correctly balanced and dynamic chromatin landscape able to support mammalian differentiation.

The histone demethylase Jmjd3 sequentially associates with the transcription factors Tbx3 and Eomes to drive endoderm differentiation

Project description:Here we show that T-box proteins team up with chromatin modifying enzymes to drive the expression of the key lineage regulator, Eomes during endodermal differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. The Eomes locus is maintained in a transcriptionally poised configuration in ES cells. During early differentiation steps, the ES cell factor Tbx3 associates with the histone demethylase Jmjd3 at the enhancer element of the Eomes locus to allow enhancer-promoter interactions. This spatial reorganization of the chromatin primes the cells to respond to Activin signaling, which promotes the binding of Jmjd3 and Eomes to its own bivalent promoter region to further stimulate Eomes expression in a positive feedback loop.

Quantification of parental and new histones H3, H4 and H2A by mass spectrometry: analysis of their dynamics along cell cycle progression in WT and MCM2-2A mutant mouse ESCs

Project description:During DNA replication parental, nucleosomic histones are segregated almost symmetrically to the two daughter DNA strands enabling mitotic inheritance of histones and their PTMs. In MCM2 histone-binding mutant ESCs (MCM2-2A), histones are recycled asymmetrically to the leading strand. To evaluate if loss of parental histones contributes to the asymmetry, we tracked new and old histones quantitatively by pulse-Triple-SILAC-MS. The quantification showed no change in dilution and incorporation dynamics in MCM2-2A cells, demonstrating that parental histones are not lost at replication forks but re-routed from the lagging to the leading strand.

Asf1a resolves bivalent chromatin domains for the induction of lineage-specific genes during mouse embryonic stem cell differentiation

Project description:Bivalent chromatin domains containing both repressive H3K27me3 and active H3K4me3 modifications are barriers for the expression of lineage-specific genes in embryonic stem (ES) cells and must be resolved for the transcription induction of these genes during differentiation, a process that remains largely unknown. Here, we show that Asf1a, a histone chaperone involved in both nucleosome assembly and disassembly, regulates the resolution of bivalent domains and activation of lineage-specific genes during mouse ES cell differentiation. Deletion of Asf1a does not affect the silencing of pluripotent genes, but compromises the expression of lineage-specific genes during ES cell differentiation. Mechanistically, the Asf1a-histone interaction, but not the role of Asf1a in nucleosome assembly is required for gene transcription. Asf1a is recruited to several bivalent promoters, partially through association with transcription factors, and mediates nucleosome disassembly during differentiation. We suggest that Asf1a-mediated nucleosome disassembly provides a means for resolution of bivalent domain barriers for induction of lineage-specific genes during differentiation.
