ZNF512B associates with mitotic spindles, regulates metaphase exit and is crucial for stem cell differentiation

ABSTRACT: Zinc finger proteins are a large family of DNA-binding factors that play key roles in diverse cellular processes including gene regulation, RNA metabolism and cell cycle control. The zinc finger protein ZNF512B has recently been implicated in chromatin organization and transcriptional repression through its direct interaction with the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) complex, its DNA-binding ability, and its association with the histone variant H2A.Z. Here, we uncover a previously unrecognized role for ZNF512B that is independent of both its zinc finger domains and NuRD association. We identify ZNF512B as a spindle-associated factor that regulates progression through mitosis, specifically controlling metaphase exit. ZNF512B’s N-terminal internal region, which contains 25 repeats of a six-residue motif predicted to form a β-helix structure, is required and sufficient for its spindle interaction. Elevated ZNF512B levels result in a profound metaphase arrest that is ultimately lethal, a phenotype arising from the combined activity of its spindle-binding and chromatin-tethering functions. Conversely, ZNF512B depletion accelerates stem cell proliferation, impairs differentiation, and upregulates genes linked to cell cycle progression. Our findings position ZNF512B as a multifunctional protein that acts as a transcriptional repressor, a chromatin aggregator and a novel mitotic exit regulator through spindle fiber binding.

ZNF512B binds RBBP4 via an adapted NuRD interaction motif and aggregates chromatin in an NuRD complex-independent manner

Project description:The evolutionary conserved histone variant H2A.Z plays a crucial role in various DNA-based processes but the underlying mechanisms are not completely understood. Recently, we identified the zinc finger (ZNF) protein ZNF512B as an H2A.Z-, HMG20A- and PWWP2A-associated protein. Here, we report ZNF512B as a novel nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) complex binding protein. We discovered a conserved amino acid sequence within ZNF512B that resembles a NuRD-interaction domain (NIM) previously identified in FOG-1. By solving the crystal structure of this domain directly bound to the NuRD component RBBP4 and by applying several biochemical assays we demonstrate that this novel internal NIM sequence is both necessary and sufficient for high-affinity NuRD binding. Transcriptome analyses and reporter assays identify ZNF512B as regulator (repressor) of gene expression, in both NuRD-dependent and -independent modes. Surprisingly, high levels of ZNF512B expression lead to concomitant nuclear protein and chromatin aggregation foci that form independent of the interaction with the NuRD complex but depend on ZNF512B’s zinc fingers. Our study has implications for diseases in which ZNF512B’s expression is deregulated, such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases and reveal the existence of more proteins as potential NuRD interactors.

Metaphase-Chromosome-Organization

Project description:Mitotic chromosomes are among the most recognizable structures in the cell, yet for over a century their internal organization remains largely unsolved. We applied chromosome conformation capture methods, 5C and Hi-C, across the cell cycle and revealed two alternative three-dimensional folding states of the human genome. We show that the highly compartmentalized and cell-type-specific organization described previously for non-synchronous cells is restricted to interphase. In metaphase, we identify a homogenous folding state, which is locus-independent, common to all chromosomes, and consistent among cell types, suggesting a general principle of metaphase chromosome organization. Using polymer simulations, we find that metaphase Hi-C data is inconsistent with classic hierarchical models, and is instead best described by a linearly-organized longitudinally compressed array of consecutive chromatin loops.

NuRD complex recruitment to Thpok mediates CD4+ T cell lineage differentiation

Project description:Although BTB-zinc finger (BTB-ZF) transcription factors control the differentiation of multiple hematopoietic and immune lineages, how they function is poorly understood. The BTB-ZF factor Thpok controls intrathymic CD4+ T cell development and expression of most CD4+- and CD8+-lineage genes. Here, we identify the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) complex as a novel Thpok cofactor. We locate three amino-acid residues within the Thpok BTB domain that are required for both NuRD binding and Thpok functions, and show that NuRD recruitment recapitulates the functions of the Thpok BTB domain. NuRD mediates Thpok repression of CD8+-lineage genes, including the transcription factor Runx3, but is dispensable for Cd4 expression. We show that these functions cannot be performed by the BTB domain of the Thpok-related factor Bcl6, which fails to bind NuRD. Thus, cofactor binding critically contributes to the functional specificity of BTB-zinc finger factors, which control the differentiation of most hematopoietic subsets.

¬¬ZMYND8 co-localizes with NuRD on target genes and regulates poly-ADP-ribose dependent recruitment of GATAD2A/NuRD to sites of DNA damage

Project description:The NuRD complex is generally thought to repress transcription at both hyper- and hypomethylated regions in the genome. In addition, the complex is involved in the DNA damage response. Here, we show that ZMYND8 bridges NuRD to a number of putative DNA-binding zinc finger proteins. The ZMYND8 MYND domain directly interacts with PPPLΦ motifs in the NuRD subunit GATAD2A. Furthermore, GATAD2A and GATAD2B exclusively form homodimers and they thus define mutually exclusive NuRD subcomplexes. ZMYND8 and MBD3 share a large number of genome-wide binding sites, mostly active promoters and enhancers. Depletion of ZMYND8 does not affect NuRD occupancy genome-wide and expression of NuRD/ZMYND8 target genes in steady-state asynchronous cells. However, ZMYND8 facilitates immediate recruitment of GATAD2A/NuRD to induced sites of DNA damage in a PAR-dependent manner. These results thus show that a specific substoichiometric interaction with a NuRD subunit paralogue provides unique functionality to a distinct NuRD subcomplex.

Zic2, an enhancer-binding factor required for embryonic stem cell specification

Project description:The Zinc finger protein of the cerebellum 2 (Zic2) is one of the vertebrate homologs of the Drosophila pair-rule gene odd-paired (opa). Our molecular and biochemical studies have demonstrated that Zic2 to preferentially bind to transcriptional enhancers and functions as a cofactor that interacts with the NuRD complex in ES cells. Detailed genome-wide studies demonstrate that Zic2 function with Mbd3/NuRD in regulating the chromatin state and transcriptional output of genes linked to differentiation. Zic2 is dispensable for the selfrenewal of ES cells but is required for proper differentiation, similar to what has been previously reported for Mbd3/NuRD. Our study identifies Zic2 as a key factor in the execution of the pluripotency program with Mbd3/NuRD in ES cells. ChIP-seq of Zic2, Chd4, Mbd3 and Zic3 in mES cells. ChIP-seq of H3K27me3, H3K27ac, H3K4me3, H3K4me1 and PolII in mES cells after Zic2 shRNA and non-targeting shRNA. RNA-seq of mES cells after Zic2, Zic3, Mbd3 and Mta2 shRNA and non-targeting shRNA.
