Differential oligomerization regulates PHF13 chromatin function and affinity [ATAC-seq]

ABSTRACT: PHF13 is a H3K4me3 epigenetic reader, that modulates key chromatin processes including transcription, DNA damage response and chromatin architecture. PHF13 is found aberrantly regulated in different cancers and its misexpression alters the epigenetic landscape of key transcription factors that regulate Epithelial to Mesenchymal transition. In this study we sought to understand how PHF13’s chromatin affinity and diverse chromatin functions are intrinsically regulated. Our results show that PHF13 can oligomerize via conserved ordered regions in its N- and C- terminus increasing its chromatin valence and avidity. Impressively, a 4-fold over expression of PHF13 was sufficient to globally compact chromatin, dependent on its ordered dimerizing regions and oligomerization potential. Unexpectedly, we discovered that PHF13 can self-associate independent of its ordered domains via intrinsically disordered regions, which conversely reduced PHF13’s chromatin affinity. Our findings support that there is an intrinsic balance between PHF13’s ordered and disordered regions that regulates PHF13 chromatin affinity, and suggest that PHF13 can phase transition between polymer-polymer and liquid-liquid phase separation states to impact chromatin structure and function.

Analyzing Intrinsically Ordered and Disordered Regions of the DDD Complex

Project description:We used HDX-MS to analyze which regions of the DDD complex are intrinsically ordered and disordered. Deuterium incorporation after 3 seconds at zero degrees celsius was compared to deuterium incoporation in a fully deuterated sample. We were able to determine which componants of the DDD complex have the most stable and unstable secondary structure.

BRCA1/BARD1 intrinsically disordered regions facilitate chromatin recruitment and ubiquitylation

Project description:BRCA1/BARD1 is a tumor suppressor E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligase with roles in DNA damage repair and in transcriptional regulation. BRCA1/BARD1 RING domains interact with nucleosomes to facilitate mono-ubiquitylation of distinct residues on the C-terminal tail of histone H2A. These enzymatic domains constitute a small fraction of the heterodimer, raising the possibility of functional chromatin interactions involving other regions such as the BARD1 C-terminal domains that bind nucleosomes containing the DNA damage signal H2A K15-Ub and H4 K20me0, or portions of the expansive intrinsically disordered regions found in both subunits. Herein, we reveal novel interactions that support robust H2A ubiquitylation activity mediated through a high-affinity, intrinsically disordered DNA-binding region of BARD1. These interactions support BRCA1/BARD1 recruitment to chromatin and sites of DNA damage in cells and contribute to their survival. We also reveal distinct BRCA1/BARD1 complexes that depend on the presence of H2A K15-Ub, including a complex where a single BARD1 subunit spans adjacent nucleosome units. Our findings identify an extensive network of multivalent BARD1-nucleosome interactions that serve as a platform for BRCA1/BARD1-associated functions on chromatin.

Phase-separated CCER1 coordinates histone-to-protamine transition and fertility

Project description:Idiopathic fertility disorders are associated with mutations in various genes. Here, we report that coiled-coil glutamate-rich protein 1 (CCER1), a germline-specific and intrinsically disordered protein (IDP), mediates post-meiotic sperm differentiation, while CCER1 deficiency results in defective sperm chromatin compaction and infertility in mice. CCER1 increases transition protein (Tnp1/2) and protamine (Prm1/2) transcription and serves as a multifaceted mediator for multiple epigenetic modification events of histones during the histone to protamine transition (HTP). Immiscible with heterochromatin in the nucleus, CCER1 self-assembles into polymer droplet and acts as a liquid-liquid phase separated condensate in the nucleus. Notably, we identified the loss-of function variants of human CCER1 (hCCER1) in five patients with non-obstuctive azoospermia (NOA) while absent in 2,713 fertile controls. The mutants led to premature termination or frameshift of CCER1 translation and disrupted condensates in vitro. In conclusion, we propose that nuclear CCER1 is a novel phase-separated condensate that links histone epigenetic modifications, sperm HTP transitions, chromatin condensation, and male fertility.

Aberrant phase separation of transcription factors in human developmental disorders

Project description:Components of the transcription machinery can undergo liquid-liquid phase separation, but the functional importance of phase-separated condensates in transcriptional control is not well understood. Here we report that disease-causing mutations in several transcription factors (TFs) alter the phase separation capacity of those TFs. We first demonstrate that the Hoxd13 TF, and its intrinsically disordered N-terminus form phase-separated condensates. Expansions of a polyalanine repeat, which cause hereditary synpolydactyly in humans, facilitate phase separation of Hoxd13, and alter the transcriptional program of several cell types in a cell-specific manner in vivo. Disease-associated expansions of aminoacid repeats in intrinsically disordered regions of other TFs were similarly found to alter phase separation. These results suggest that aberrant phase separation of transcriptional regulators may underlie a spectrum of human pathologies. The paper is available at https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2020.04.018

Characterization of the heat-stable proteome during seed germination in Arabidopsis with special focus on LEA proteins

Project description:During seed germination, desiccation tolerance is lost in the radicle with progressing radicle protrusion and seedling establishment. This process is accompanied by comprehensive changes of the metabolome and proteome. Germination of Arabidopsis seeds was investigated over 72 h with special focus on the heat-stable proteome including late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins together with changes of primary metabolites. Six metabolites in dry seeds known to be important for seed longevity decreased during germination and seedling establishment, while all other metabolites increased simultaneously with activation of growth and development. Thermo-stable proteins were associated with a multitude of biological processes. In the heat-stable proteome a relatively similar proportion of fully ordered and fully intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) was discovered. Highly disordered proteins were found to be associated with functional categories development, protein, RNA and stress. As expected, the majority of LEA proteins decreased during germination and seedling establishment. However, four germination-specific dehydrins were identified, not present in dry seeds. A network analysis of proteins, metabolites and amino acids generated during the course of germination revealed a highly connected LEA protein network.
