Chromatin distribution alterations of histone modifacations and PRC2 complex caused by Rack7 deletion in primary astrocyte [ChIP-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Dysregulation of epigenetic mechanisms play crucial roles in brain development and disease. Emerging evidence suggests that RACK7, an epigenetic reader protein, may play a role in brain development, but in vivo exploration of RACK7 in neural development and the underlying mechanisms are still lacking. Here, we established a conditional knock-out Rack7 mouse model and show that Rack7-deficient mice exhibit overt developmental defects. Multicomplex immunofluorescence staining (mIF) of cell-type specific markers indicates that the developmental defects are associated with compromised astrocyte development. Mechanistically, we surprisingly found RACK7 interacts with PRC2 complex, which acts as the histone H3K27 methyltransferase. Our results suggest RACK7 binding with PRC2 complex helps to establish the proper genomic location of histone H3K27me3 modification. Deletion of Rack7 in astrocyte leads to a remarkable decrease of H3K27me3 chromatin enrichment. genome-wide?. Functionally, we found RACK7 works together with H3K27me3 to prevent overactivation of Wnt signaling pathway and other astrocyte differentiation genes. Collectively, our study provides new insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying brain development regulated by RACK7.

RACK7 ChIP-seq in pediatric glioblastomas cell lines.

Project description:We identified that RACK7 recognizes the histone H3.3G34R mutaion in vitro. In order to determine the interaction between RACK7 and H3.3G34R mutaion in cells, we used three pediatric glioblastoma (pGBM) cell lines. SJ-HGGx6c(R6) and SJ-HGGx42c(R42) have heterozygous G34R mutation, while SJ-HGGx39c(WT39) has wildtype H3F3A, which encodes H3.3, and we also corrected H3.3G34R in R6 and R42 cells to wildtype H3.3 by CRISPR/Cas9 mediated knock-in. Finally, we performed RACK7 ChIP-seq in these cell lines to explore the function of RACK7 and H3.3G34R mutation.

Specific cPRC1 complexes are co-opted to mediate oncogenic gene repression in diffuse midline glioma

Project description:Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is a fatal childhood brain tumour characterised primarily by mutant histone H3 (H3K27M). H3K27M causes a global reduction in Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2)-mediated H3K27me3 by inhibiting PRC2 enzymatic activity. Paradoxically, PRC2 is essential in DMG tumour cells where residual complex activity is required for oncogenic gene repression, although the molecular mechanisms acting downstream of PRC2 in this context are poorly understood. Here, we’ve discovered this oncogenic gene repression is mediated by specific canonical PRC1 (cPRC1) formations. By combining CRISPR screening, biochemical and chromatin mapping approaches with functional perturbations we show that cPRC1 complexes containing CBX4 and PCGF4 drive oncogenic gene repression downstream of H3K27me3 in DMG cells. Remarkably, the altered H3K27me3 modification landscape characteristic of these tumours rewires the distribution of cPRC1 complexes on chromatin. CBX4 and PCGF4 containing cPRC1 accumulate at sites of H3K27me3 while other cPRC1 formations are displaced. Despite accounting for <5% of cPRC1 complexes in DMG, CBX4/PCGF4-containing complexes predominate as gene repressors. Our findings link the altered distribution of H3K27me3 with imbalanced cPRC1 function, promoting oncogenic gene repression in DMG cells, revealing new disease mechanisms and highlighting potential therapeutic opportunities in this incurable childhood brain tumour.

Two distinct functional axes of positive feedback-enforced PRC2 recruitment in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) plays an essential role in development by catalysing trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3), resulting in gene repression. PRC2 consists of two sub-complexes, PRC2.1 and PRC2.2, in which the PRC2 core associates with distinct ancillary subunits such as MTF2 and JARID2, respectively. Both MTF2, present in PRC2.1, and JARID2, present in PRC2.2, play a role in core PRC2 recruitment to target genes in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). However, it remains unclear how these distinct sub-complexes cooperate to establish H3K27me3 domains. Here, we combine a range of Polycomb mutant mESCs with chemical inhibition of PRC2 catalytic activity, to systematically dissect their relative contributions to PRC2 binding to target loci. We find that PRC2.1 and PRC2.2 mediate two distinct paths for recruitment, with mutually reinforced binding. Part of the cross-talk between PRC2.1 and PRC2.2 occurs via their catalytic product H3K27me3, which is bound by the PRC2 core-subunit EED, thereby mediating a positive feedback. Strikingly, removal of either JARID2 or H3K27me3 only has a minor effect on PRC2 recruitment, whereas their combined ablation largely attenuates PRC2 recruitment. This strongly suggests an unexpected redundancy between JARID2 and EED-H3K27me3-mediated recruitment of PRC2. Furthermore, we demonstrate that all core PRC2 recruitment occurs through the combined action of MTF2-mediated recruitment of PRC2.1 to DNA and PRC1-mediated recruitment of JARID2-containing PRC2.2. Both axes of binding are supported by EED-H3K27me3 positive feedback, but to a different degree. Finally, we provide evidence that PRC1 and PRC2 mutually reinforce reciprocal binding. Together, these data disentangle the interdependent and cooperative interactions between Polycomb complexes that are important to establish Polycomb repression at target sites.

A Surveillance System of Active Enhancers by a RACK7-histone Demethylase Complex (ChIP-Seq I)

Project description:Primed enhancers are marked by histone H3K4 mono-methylation (H3K4me1), and the conversion to active enhancers involves acetylation of histone H3K27 (H3K27Ac). However, whether active enhancers are regulated remains unclear. Here we report a biochemical complex consisting of a potential chromatin reader (RACK7) and a histone demethylase (KDM5C) that occupies many active enhancers in a breast cancer cell line. Loss of RACK7 or KDM5C results in hyperactive enhancers marked by H3K4me3 and H3K27Ac, and characterized by an increased eRNA transcription and elevated expression of nearby genes. Loss of RACK7 or KDM5C also leads to increased cell invasion and migration, and enhanced tumor growth. We propose that RACK7/KDM5C functions as an enhancer âbrakeâ to ensure appropriate enhancer activities in the cell. Our findings provide important insight into histone H3K4 methylation dynamics at enhancers and reveal a molecular mechanism that controls the activities of active enhancers, which when compromised, can contribute to tumorigenesis. ChIP-seq data of RACK7, KDM5C and histone modifications in parental and RACK7-KO ZR-75-30 cells.
