H2A monoubiquitination targeting by cohesin subunits in Arabidopsis

ABSTRACT: Histone H2A monoubiquitination (H2Aub1) function as a conserved post-translational modification in eukaryotes to maintain gene repression and ensure cellular identity. Arabidopsis H2Aub1 is catalyzed by polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) contributed by AtRING1s and AtBMI1s. Because PRC1 components lack known DNA binding domains, how H2Aub1 is established at the specific genomic sites remains a topic of debate. Here we show that the cohesin subunits AtSYN4 and AtSCC3 interact with each other and AtSCC3 binds to AtBMI1s. We find that H2Aub1 levels are significantly reduced in the atsyn4 mutant or AtSCC3 RNAi knockdown plants. ChIP-seq analysis indicated that AtSYN4 and AtSCC3 tend to associate with H2Aub1 in the genome regions of transcription activation independent on H3K27me3. Finally, we show that AtSYN4 binds directly to the G-box element and targets H2Aub1to these sites. Our study thus revealed a mechanism for cohesin-mediated recruitment of AtBMI1s to specific loci to mediate H2Aub1.

Fbxl10 regulates PRC1 recruitment to CpG islands and H2A ubiquitination

Project description:Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) catalyzes H2A monoubiquitination (uH2A) and regulates pluripotency in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However the mechanisms controlling PRC1 recruitment and activity are largely unknown. Here we show that Fbxl10 interacts with Ring1B and Nspc1, forming a non-canonical PRC1. We demonstrate that Fbxl10-PRC1 is essential for H2A ubiquitination in mouse ESCs. Genome-wide analyses reveal that Fbxl10 preferentially binds to CpG islands and co-localizes with Ring1B on Polycomb target genes. Notably, Fbxl10 depletion causes modest dissociation of Ring1B but a major loss of uH2A on target genes. Furthermore rescue experiments for Fbxl10 reveal that its DNA binding capability and integration into PRC1 are required for proper H2A ubiquitination. ES cells lacking Fbxl10, like previously characterized Polycomb mutants, show a severely compromised capacity for successful differentiation. Our results shed light on a novel mechanism how CpG islands regulate chromatin function by affecting polycomb recruitment and activity. All ChIP-seq reactions were performed in either untransfected cells, cells expressing scrambled shRNA or Fbxl10 shRNA, Ring1b-/- or Suz12-/- mouse ES cells

H2A monoubiquitination in Arabidopsis is generally independent of LHP1 and PRC2 activity [ChIP-seq]

Project description:BACKGROUND: Polycomb group complexes PRC1 and PRC2 repress gene expression at the chromatin level in eukaryotes. The classic recruitment model of Polycomb group complexes in which PRC2-mediated H3K27 trimethylation recruits PRC1 for H2A monoubiquitination was recently challenged by data showing that PRC1 activity can also recruit PRC2. However, the prevalence of these two mechanisms is unknown, especially in plants as H2AK121ub marks were examined at only a handful of Polycomb group targets. RESULTS: By using genome-wide analyses, we show that H2AK121ub marks are surprisingly widespread in Arabidopsis thaliana, often co-localizing with H3K27me3 but also occupying a set of transcriptionally active genes devoid of H3K27me3. Furthermore, by profiling H2AK121ub and H3K27me3 marks in atbmi1a/b/c, clf/swn, and lhp1 mutants we found that PRC2 activity is not required for H2AK121ub marking at most genes. In contrast, loss of AtBMI1 function impacts the incorporation of H3K27me3 marks at most Polycomb group targets. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings show the relationship between H2AK121ub and H3K27me3 marks across the A. thaliana genome and unveil that ubiquitination by PRC1 is largely independent of PRC2 activity in plants, while the inverse is true for H3K27 trimethylation.

PR-DUB preserves Polycomb repression by preventing excessive accumulation of H2Aub1, an antagonist of nucleosome stacking (RNA-Seq)

Project description:The Polycomb repression machinery in Drosophila comprises PRC1 that monoubiquitinates histone H2A at lysine 118 (H2Aub1) and PR-DUB, a major H2Aub1 deubiquitinase, but how H2Aub1 levels must be balanced for Polycomb repression remains enigmatic. We show that H2Aub1 is enriched at Polycomb target genes in early embryos but depleted from these genes during developmental stages when PRC1 represses their transcription. Accordingly, Polycomb targets remain repressed in H2Aub1-deficient animals. In PR-DUB catalytic mutants, high-level H2Aub1 accumulation at Polycomb targets increases chromatin accessibility, consistent with disruption of chromatin fiber folding by H2Aub1 in vitro. Consequently, PR-DUB mutants show defective Polycomb repression, while general transcription is largely unperturbed by the genome-wide, low-level H2Aub1 increase. Changes in H2Aub1 levels alter H3K27 methylation-kinetics but PRC2 nevertheless generates canonical H3K27me3 domains in PRC1 or PR-DUB catalytic mutants. PR-DUB therefore acts as a rheostat that removes excessive H2Aub1 that, though deposited by PRC1, antagonizes PRC1-mediated chromatin compaction.

Removal of H2Aub1 by ubiquitin-specific proteases 12 and 13 is required for stable Polycomb-mediated gene repression in Arabidopsis

Project description:Background: Stable gene repression is essential for normal growth and development. Polycomb Repressive Complexes 1 and 2 (PRC1 & PRC2) are involved in this process by establishing monoubiquitinated histone 2A (H2Aub1) and subsequent trimethylation of lysine 27 of histone 3 (H3K27me3). Previous work proposed that H2Aub1 removal by the ubiquitin-specific proteases 12 and 13 (UBP12 & UBP13) is part of the repressive PRC1&2 system, but its functional role remains elusive. Results: We show that UBP12 and UBP13 work together with PRC1, PRC2, and EMF1 to repress genes involved in stimulus response. We found that H2Aub1 is associated with responsiveness, and that it’s only indirectly repressive via PRC2 recruitment. Our analyses also revealed that PR2 targets that do not require PRC1 are pre-repressed. Lastly, we have found that removal of H2Aub1 by UBP12/13 prevents loss of H3K27me3, consistent with our finding that the H3K27me3 demethylase REF6 is enriched at H2Aub1 marked genes. Conclusions: Our data allow us to propose a model in which deposition of H2Aub1 permits recruitment of PRC2 and provides a state that allows for a rapid switch between gene activation and repression. Removal of H2Aub1 by UBP12/13 is required to achieve stable repression.
