Histone exchange sensors reveal variant specific dynamics in mouse embryonic stem cells

ABSTRACT: Eviction of histones from nucleosomes and their exchange with newly synthesized or alternative variants is a central mechanism shaping the epigenome. Here, we implemented a recently established sensor system that enables measuring genome-wide incorporation and exchange of canonical and non-canonical histone variants in mouse embryonic stem cells. While exchange of all measured variants scales with transcription, variant-specific patterns are associated with transcription elongation and Polycomb binding. We found considerable exchange rates of canonical H3.1 and H2B in heterochromatin and repeat elements where non-canonical H3.3 is stably incorporated but not exchanged. This unexpected association between H3.3 incorporation and the exchange of H3.1 and H2B is also evident in active promoters and enhancers, which we validated using HIRA knockout cells harboring the sensor system. The sensor system provides a powerful experimental framework with quantitative readout, facilitating functional studies of histone dynamics and epigenetic gene regulation in vivo.

Genome-wide analysis of histone H3.1 and H3.3 variants in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:Nucleosomes package eukaryotic DNA and are composed of four different histone proteins, H3, H4, H2A and H2B. Histone H3 has two main variants, H3.1 and H3.3, which show different genomic localization patterns in animals. We profiled H3.1 and H3.3 variants in the genome of the plant Arabidopsis thaliana and show that the localization of these variants shows broad similarity in plants and animals, in addition to some unique features. H3.1 was enriched in silent areas of the genome including regions containing the repressive chromatin modifications H3 lysine 27 methylation, H3 lysine 9 methylation, and DNA methylation. In contrast, H3.3 was enriched in actively transcribed genes, especially peaking at the 3’ end of genes, and correlated with histone modifications associated with gene activation such as histone H3 lysine 4 methylation, and H2B ubiquitylation, as well as by RNA Pol II occupancy. Surprisingly, both H3.1 and H3.3 were enriched on defined origins of replication, as was overall nucleosome density, suggesting a novel characteristic of plant origins. Our results are broadly consistent with the hypothesis that H3.1 acts as the canonical histone that is incorporated during DNA replication, whereas H3.3 acts as the replacement histone that can be incorporated outside of S-phase during chromatin disrupting processes like transcription.

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.

Reprogramming of the histone H3.3 landscape in the early mouse embryo

Project description:Epigenetic reprogramming of the zygote involves dynamic incorporation of the histone variant, H3.3. However, the genome-wide distribution and dynamics of H3.3 during early development remain unknown. Here, we delineate the H3.3 landscapes in mouse oocytes and early embryos. We unexpectedly identify a non-canonical H3.3 pattern in mature oocytes and zygotes, in which local enrichment of H3.3 at active chromatin is suppressed and H3.3 is relatively evenly distributed across the genome. Interestingly, while the non-canonical H3.3 pattern forms gradually during oogenesis, it quickly switches to a canonical pattern at the 2-cell stage in a transcription-independent and replication-dependent manner. We find that incorporation of H3.1/H3.2 mediated by CAF-1 is a key process for the de novo establishment of the canonical pattern. Our data suggest that the presence of the non-canonical pattern and its timely transition toward a canonical pattern support the developmental program of early embryos.

Dynamic Deposition of the Histone H3.3 Variant Accompanies Developmental Remodeling of Arabidopsis Transcriptome (mRNA-Seq)

Project description:In animals, replication coupled histone H3.1 can be distinguished from replication independent histone H3.3. H3.3 variants are enriched at active genes and their promoters. Furthermore, H3.3 is specifically incorporated upon gene activation. Histone H3 variants evolved independently in plants and animals and it is unclear whether different replication independent H3.3 variants developed similar properties in both phyla. We studied Arabidopsis H3 variants in order to find core properties of this class of histones. Here we present genome-wide maps of H3.3 and H3.1 enrichment and the dynamic changes of their profiles upon cell division arrest. We find H3.3 enrichment to positively correlate with gene expression and to be biased towards the transcription termination site. While heterochromatic regions are mostly depleted of H3.3, H3.1 shows a more even distribution along the genome. We report that in planta, dynamic changes in H3.3 profiles are associated with the extensive remodeling of the transcriptome that occurs during cell differentiation. We propose that H3.3 dynamics are linked to transcription and are involved in resetting covalent histone marks at a genomic scale during plant development. Similarities between plant and animal H3.3 deposition profiles indicate that H3 variants likely result from functionally convergent evolution. Analysis of 2 different histone H3 variants and transcriptome in 2 conditions.

De novo deposition of the histone H3 variants H3.1 and H3.3 during DNA replication

Project description:We developed a new sequencing assay to track the de novo deposition of the histone H3 variants H3.1 and H3.3 during S phase. We use cells stably expressing H3.1-SNAP or H3.3-SNAP, and synchronize them in G1/S by double-thymidine block. The SNAP-tag enables to discriminate newly synthesized histones from preexisting ones, via a quench-chase-capture strategy. We applied this strategy to isolate new H3.1 and H3.3 after releasing cells into S phase, and probed their distribution by MNase digestion and sequencing. We could thus characterize H3.1 and H3.3 dynamics from early to mid S phase at genome-wide resolution. We further applied our method to investigate the consequences of perturbations upon deletion of the H3.3 chaperone HIRA. We used HIRA knockout and control cells, and compared H3.1 and H3.3 distribution to early replication patterns by EdU labeling and sequencing of nascent DNA.

Multilevel interrogation of H3.3 dynamics reveals a primordial role in transcription regulation in Tetrahymena [RNA-seq]

Project description:Through epigenetic modifications and selective incorporation of histone variants into chromatin, eukaryotic cells can adjust their transcriptional profile in response to molecular needs. We used the nuclear dimorphic ciliate protozoan, Tetrahymena thermophila, as a model system to investigate the dynamics of H3 variant function. H3.3 is the ancestral H3 variant with key roles in regulating chromatin states and transcription. Functional proteomics and immunofluorescence analyses of H3.1 and H3.3 revealed a conserved role for Nrp1 and Asf1 histone chaperones in nuclear influx of histones. Cac2 and Hir1 have distinct localization patterns during different stages of the Tetrahymena life cycle and suggests that both Cac2 and Hir1 might be dispensable for the replication-dependent and -independent deposition of H3.1 and H3.3, respectively. ChIP-seq experiments in growing Tetrahymena show H3.3 enrichment over promoters, genes bodies, and transcription termination sites of highly transcribed genes. H3.3 knockout followed by RNA-seq reveals large-scale transcriptional alterations in functionally important genes. Our results provide an evolutionary perspective on H3.3’s conserved role in maintaining the transcriptional landscape of cells and on the emergence of specialized chromatin assembly pathways.

Arsenic-induced polyadenylation of canonical histone H3.1 mRNA displaces histone variant H3.3 from critical gene regulatory regions

Project description:The replication-dependent canonical histone genes are the only genes found in multicellular organisms whose messenger RNA (mRNA) does not terminate with a poly(A) tail at the 3’ end. We previously demonstrated that arsenic exposure induces polyadenylation of canonical histone H3.1 mRNA in tissue culture system. We report that arsenic is capable of inducing high levels of H3.1 mRNA polyadenylation and marked loss of the Stem-loop binding protein (SLBP) in vivo, which is critical for canonical histone pre-mRNA processing. Ectopic expression of polyadenylated H3.1 mRNA enhances anchorage-independent cell growth and tumor formation in nude mice. Moreover, polyadenylation of H3.1 mRNA causes transcriptional deregulation, G2/M arrest, chromosome aneuploidy and aberration. Importantly, overexpression of H3.3 attenuates arsenic-induced cell transformation. Through ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq, we try to decipher if polyadenylated H3.1 mRNA could result in depletion of histone variant H3.3 at critical gene regulatory regions. Our study uncovers polyadenylation of H3.1 and resulting displacement of variant H3.3 as a potential new mechanism for arsenic-induced carcinogenesis.
