Project description:Histone H3 trimethylation of lysine 9 (H3K9me3) and heterochromatin proteins 1 (HP1) are hallmarks of heterochromatin, a state of compacted DNA essential for genome stability and long-term transcriptional silencing. The mechanisms by which H3K9me3 and HP1 contribute to chromatin compaction have been speculative and controversial. We demonstrate that mammalian HP1β is a prototypic HP1 protein exemplifying most basal chromatin binding and effects. These are caused by dimeric and dynamic interaction with highly enriched H3K9me3 and are modulated by various electrostatic interfaces. Via internucleosomal bridging HP1β specifically interacts with condensed chromatin, which we postulate stabilizes the compacted state. In agreement, HP1β genome-wide localization follows enrichment of H3K9me3 and bridging of chromatin fibers in a cellular context is sufficient for maintaining heterochromatic conformation. Overall, our findings define a fundamental mechanism for chromatin higher order structural changes caused by HP1 proteins, which may contribute to the plastic nature of condensed chromatin.

Project description:Lysine methylation is part of the posttranscriptional histone code employed to recruit modification specific readers to chromatin. Unbiased, quantitative mass spectrometry approaches combined with peptide pull-downs have been used to study histone methylation-dependent binders in mammalian cells. Here, we extend the study to birds by investigating the interaction partners for H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K27me3 and H3K36me3 in chicken (gallus gallus) and zebra finch (taeniopygia guttata) using label free quantitative proteomics. In general, we find very strong overlap in interaction partners for the trimethyl marks in birds compared to mammals, underscoring the known conserved function of these modifications. In agreement with their epigenetic role, we find binding of PHF2 and members of the TFIID, SAGA, SET1 and NURF complex to the activation mark H3K4me3. Our data furthermore supports the existence of a LID complex in vertebrates recruited to the H3K4me3. The repressive marks are bound by the HP1 proteins and the EED subunit of the PRC2 complex as well as by WIZ. Like the screens in mammals, we found ZNF462, ZNF828 and POGZ enriched at H3K9me3. However, we noted some unexpected differences. First, we did not observe the enrichment of CDYL and CDYL2 at the repressive marks. Second N-PAC (also known as GLYR1), an H3K36me3 interactor in mammals, is not binding to this modification in our screen. This suggests that despite strong conservation of the histone tail sequence, species-specific differences in epigenetic readers may have evolved.

Project description:We assembled a quantitative map for the abundance and interactions of 16 factors related to PCH in living cells and found that stably bound complexes of the histone methyltransferase Suv39h1/2 demarcate the PCH state. From the experimental data we developed a predictive mathematical model that explains how chromatin-bound Suv39h1/2 complexes act as nucleation sites and propagate a spatially confined PCH domain with elevated histone H3 trimethylation levels via chromatin dynamics. Enrichment of HP1, Suv39h1/h2, H3K9me3 and H3K36me3 was assessed by ChIP-seq in NPCs derived from ESCs showing differential occupation at intergenic major satellite repeats and enrichment of heterochromatin factors.

Project description:Methylated lysine 27 on histone H3 (H3K27me) marks repressed "facultative heterochromatin", including developmentally regulated genes in plants and animals. The mechanisms responsible for localization of H3K27me are largely unknown, perhaps in part because of the complexity of epigenetic regulatory networks. We used a relatively simple model organism bearing both facultative and constitutive heterochromatin, Neurospora crassa, to explore possible interactions between elements of heterochromatin. In higher eukaryotes, reductions of H3K9me3 and DNA methylation in constitutive heterochromatin have been variously reported to cause redistribution of H3K27me3. In Neurospora, we found that elimination of any member of the DCDC H3K9 methylation complex (DIM-5, DIM-7, CUL4, DDB1/DIM-8 or DIM-9) caused massive changes in the distribution of H3K27me; regions of facultative heterochromatin lost H3K27me3 while regions that are normally marked by H3K9me3 became methylated at H3K27. Elimination of DNA methylation by deletion of the DNA methyltransferase gene, dim-2, had no obvious effect on the distribution of H3K27me. Elimination of HP1, which "reads" H3K9me3, also caused major changes in the distribution of H3K27me, indicating that HP1 is important for normal localization of facultative heterochromatin. Because loss of HP1 caused redistribution of H3K27me2/3 but not H3K9me3, these normally non-overlapping marks became superimposed. Indeed, mass spectrometry revealed substantial cohabitation of H3K9me3 and H3K27me2 on H3 molecules from an hpo strain. Loss of H3K27me machinery (e.g. the methyltransferase SET-7) did not impact constitutive heterochromatin, but partially rescued the slow growth of the DCDC mutants, suggesting that the poor growth of these mutants is partly attributable to ectopic H3K27me. Altogether, our findings with Neurospora clarify interactions of facultative and constitutive heterochromatin in eukaryotes. Overall design: ChIP-seq was performed on 27 samples (H3K27me2me3 ChIP: 16 samples, H3K9me3 ChIP: 7 samples, GFP ChIP: 4 samples). Each type of histone modification and GFP ChIP-seq includes a wild-type sample. For H3K27me2me3 ChIP-seq, biological replicates are included for the dim-5 and dim-8 deletion strains. H3K27me2me3 ChIP-seq also includes samples from 2 independent dim-2 strains.

Project description:In yeast and other eukaryotes, the histone methyltransferase Set1 mediates methylation of lysine 4 on histone H3 (H3K4me). This modification marks the 5' end of transcribed genes in a 5' to 3' tri- to di- to monomethyl gradient, and promotes association of chromatin remodeling enzymes that regulate transcription. In a screen to identify factors that control the distinct H3K4 methylation states, we identified Ctk1, the serine 2 C-terminal domain (CTD) kinase for RNA polymerase II (RNAP II). We found that CTK1 deletion nearly abolished H3K4 monomethylation, yet caused a significant increase in H3K4 di- and trimethylation. Both on individual genes and genome-wide, the loss of CTK1 disrupted the H3K4 methylation patterns normally observed. H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 spread 3' into the body of genes, while H3K4 monomethylation was diminished. These effects were dependent on the catalytic activity of Ctk1, but are independent of Set2-mediated H3K36 methylation. Furthermore, these effects are not due to spurious transcription initiation in the body of genes, changes in RNAP II occupancy, changes in serine 5 CTD phosphorylation patterns, or to ‘transcriptional stress’. These data show that Ctk1 acts to restrict the spread of H3K4 methylation through a mechanism that is independent of a general transcription defect. The evidence presented indicates that Ctk1 controls the maintenance of suppressive chromatin in the coding regions of genes by both promoting H3K36 methylation, which leads to histone hypoacetylation, and by preventing the 3' spread of H3K4 trimethylation, a mark associated with chromatin remodeling at the 5' end of genes.

Project description:Both RNAi-dependent and -independent mechanisms have been implicated in the establishment of heterochromatin domains, which may be stabilized by feedback loops involving chromatin proteins and modifications of histones and DNA. Neurospora crassa sports features of heterochromatin found in higher eukaryotes, namely cytosine methylation (5mC), methylation of histone H3 lysine9 (H3K9me) and HETEROCHROMATIN PROTEIN-1 (HP1), and provides a model to investigate heterochromatin establishment and maintenance. We mapped the distribution of HP1, 5mC, H3K9me3 and H3K4me2 at 100bp-resolution and explored their interplay. HP1, H3K9me3 and DNA methylation were extensively colocalized and defined 44 heterochromatic domains on linkage group VII, all relics of repeat-induced point mutation (RIP). Interestingly, the centromere was found in a striking ~350kb heterochromatic domain with no detectable H3K4me2. 5mC was not found in genes, in contrast to the situation in plants and animals. H3K9me3 is required for HP1 localization and DNA methylation. Here, we show that localization of H3K9me3 is independent of 5mC or HP1 at virtually all heterochromatin regions. In addition, we observed complete restoration of DNA methylation patterns after depletion and reintroduction of the H3K9 methylation machinery, indicating that the signals for de novo heterochromatin formation lie upstream of H3K9 methylation. These data show that A:T rich RIP’d DNA efficently directs methylation of H3K9, which in turn, directs methylation of associated cytosines. Overall design: Immunoprecipitation experiments using antibodies to 5mC, H3K9me3, epitope-tagged HP1, and H3K4me2 were performed. The immunoprecipitate fraction was labeled with Cy5 and the total input was labeled with Cy3. Samples were hybridized to a N. crassa LGVII tiling path microarray.

Project description:Mammalian genetic recombination is concentrated at hotspots, specialized 1-2 Kb sites separated by long stretches of DNA lacking recombination. Mammalian hotspot locations depend on PRDM9, a zinc finger protein that binds at hotspots and uses its SET domain to locally trimethylate histone H3K4. Here we find that PRDM9 also locally trimethylates H3K36 at hotspots. Using ChIP-seq and immunoprecipitation data for H3K36me3 in murine spermatocytes, we show that H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 coincide only at hotspots in germ cells, and that this H3K4me3/H3K36me3-double-positive signature is almost entirely dependent on PRDM9. We performed ChIP-seq with an antibody against H3K36me3, using chromatin extracted from murine spermatocytes, and compared it to previously generated ChIP-seq data for H3K4me3 in the same cell type. ---------------------------------- This dataset represents the H3K36 component only
