Project description:To identify candidate enhancer elements we analyzed the distribution of two histone modifications associated with enhancers - H3K4me1 and H3K27ac - and one histone modification associated with active transcription - H4 acetylation. ChIP-seq for H3K4me1, H3K27ac and H4ac, and input DNA controls, from 2 cell types (DCs & fibroblasts) under 2 conditions (unstimulated & stimulated)

Project description:Changes in acetylation of histone H4 are a common hallmark of cancer cells. In leukemia cells, histone H4 is characterized by loss of K16 mono-acetylation. Bromodomain proteins specifically recognize acetylated lysines and have been used as a target for anti cancer drug, JQ1 and iBET. Although acetylation and de-acetylation of histone H4 have been shown to have big impact in cancer cells, little attention has been focused on histone H4-acetylation at a genome level. To uncover potential epigenetic role of hyper-acetylated histone H4 at a genome-wide level in cancer cell, we generated a novel monoclonal antibody specifically recognizing histone H4 with at least two acetylated lysine residues (H4K5ac+K8ac). At the genome-wide level, hyper-acetylated histone H4 is associated with promoter and regulatory element (active enhancer, eRNA and super enhancer). We show that diacetylation at K5 and K8 of histone H4 co-localizes H3K27ac and BRD2 in the majority of active enhancer and promoters. However BRD2 has a stronger association with H4K5acK8ac. Furthermore we identified two specific chromatin states, which separately contain either H3K27ac or acetylated histone H4. Although JQ1 led to global reduction of BRD2 binding on the chromatin, only local changes of histone H4 multi-acetylation were observed upon BET inhibition by JQ1

Project description:Newly discovered histone lysine acylations increase the functional diversity of nucleosomes well beyond acetylation. Here, we focus on histone butyrylation in the context of sperm cell differentiation. Specifically, we investigate the butyrylation of histone H4 lysine 5 and 8 at gene promoters, where acetylation guides the binding of Brdt, a bromodomain-and-extra-terminal protein, thereby mediating stage-specific gene expression programs. Genome-wide mapping data show that highly active Brdt-bound gene promoters systematically harbour competing histone acetylation and butyrylation marks at H4 K5 and K8. Histone butyrylation, despite acting as a direct stimulator of transcription, competes with acetylation, especially at H4 K5, to prevent Brdt binding. The observed in vivo H4 K5K8 acetylation butyrylation state at active promoters is reproduced in vitro where p300 indistinctly acetylates and butyrylates H4 K5 and K8. Altogether, highly active gene promoter regions are characterized by alternating H4 acetylation and butyrylation sustaining direct gene activation and a dynamic bromodomain binding.

Project description:The energetic costs of duplicating chromatin are large and therefore likely depend on nutrient sensing checkpoints and metabolic inputs. By studying chromatin modifiers regulated by epithelial growth factor, we identified histone acetyltransferase 1 (HAT1) as an induced gene that enhances proliferation through coordinating histone production, acetylation and glucose metabolism. In addition to its canonical role as a cytoplasmic histone H4 acetyltransferase, we isolated a HAT1-containing complex bound specifically at promoters of H4 genes. HAT1-dependent transcription of H4 genes required an acetate-sensitive promoter element. HAT1 expression was critical for S-phase progression and maintenance of H3 lysine 9 acetylation at proliferation-associated genes, including histone genes. Therefore, these data describe a feed-forward circuit whereby HAT1 captures acetyl-groups on nascent histones and drives H4 production by chromatin binding to support chromatin replication and acetylation. These findings have important implications for human disease, since high HAT1 levels associate with poor outcomes across multiple cancer types.

Project description:Despite correlations between histone methyltransferase (HMT) activity and gene regulation, direct evidence that HMT activity is responsible for gene activation is sparse. We address the role of the HMT activity for MLL1, a histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferase critical for maintaining hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here we show that the SET domain and thus HMT activity of MLL1 is dispensable for maintaining HSCs and for supporting leukemogenesis driven by the MLL-AF9 fusion oncoprotein. Upon Mll1 deletion, histone H4 lysine 16 (H4K16) acetylation was selectively depleted at MLL1 target genes in conjunction with reduced transcription. Surprisingly, inhibition of SIRT1 was sufficient to prevent the loss of H4K16 acetylation and the reduction in MLL1 target gene expression. Thus, recruited MOF activity, and not the intrinsic HMT activity of MLL1, is central for the maintenance of HSC target genes. In addition, this work reveals a role for SIRT1 in opposing MLL1 function. 11 Samples, 5 controls and 5 KOs with antibodies H3K4me1, H3K4me3, and H3K27Ac. One input Sample.

Project description:The MYST HAT Sas2 is part of the SAS-I complex. The target for acetylation by Sas2 is Lys16 of histone H4 (H4 K16Ac). This acetylation site marks euchromatic regions and opposes the spreading of heterochromatin at telomere-proximal regions. Changes of SAS-I-mediated H4 K16Ac on a genome-wide scale comparing wt and sas2M-bM-^HM-^F cells were investigated in this study. We found a pronounced, genome-wide loss of H4 K16 acetylation in the body of transcribed genes in the absence of Sas2. Furthermore, the influence of Sas2 on gene expression was investigated in RNA expression arrays. H4 K16Ac and H4 in wt and sas2M-bM-^HM-^F was ChIPed. ChIP experiments were performed three times with independent chromatin preparations.

Project description:The histone acetyltransferase Sas2 is part of the SAS-I complex and acetylates lysine 16 of histone H4 (H4 K16Ac) in the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Sas2-mediated H4 K16Ac is strongest over the coding region of genes with low expression. However, it is unclear how Sas2-mediated acetylation is incorporated into chromatin. Our previous work has shown physical interactions of SAS with the histone chaperones CAF-I and Asf1, suggesting a link between SAS-I mediated acetylation and chromatin assembly. Here, we find that Sas2-dependent H4 K16Ac in bulk histones requires passage of the cells through the S-phase of the cell cycle, and the rate of increase in H4 K16Ac depends on both CAF-I and Asf1, whereas steady-state levels and genome-wide distribution of H4 K16Ac shows only mild changes in their absence. Furthermore, H4 K16Ac is deposited in chromatin at genes upon repression, and this deposition requires the histone chaperone Spt6, but not CAF-I, Asf1, HIR or Rtt106. Altogether, our data indicate that Spt6 controls H4 K16Ac levels by incorporating K16-unacetylated H4 in strongly transcribed genes. Upon repression, Spt6 association is decreased, resulting in less deposition of K16-unacetylated and therefore in a concomitant increase of H4 K16Ac that is recycled during transcription.

Project description:Histone acetylation is important for the activation of gene transcription but little is known about its direct ‘read/write’ mechanisms. Here, we report cryo-electron microscopy structures in which a p300/CBP multidomain monomer recognizes histone H4 N-terminal tail (NT) acetylation (ac) in a nucleosome and acetylates non-H4 histone NTs within the same nucleosome. p300/CBP not only recognized H4NTac via the bromodomain pocket responsible for ‘reading’, but also interacted with the DNA minor grooves via the outside of that pocket. This directed the catalytic center of p300/CBP to one of the non-H4 histone NTs. The primary target that p300 ‘writes’ by ‘reading’ H4NTac was H2BNT, and H2BNTac promoted H2A-H2B dissociation from the nucleosome. We propose a model in which p300/CBP ‘replicates’ histone NT acetylation within the H3-H4 tetramer to inherit epigenetic storage, and ‘transcribes’ it from the H3-H4 tetramer to the H2B-H2A dimers to activate context-dependent gene transcription through local nucleosome destabilization.

Project description:ChIP-Seq analysis revealed that suberoylanilidehydroxamic acid (SAHA) increases genome-wide H4 acetylation in differentially regulated genes, except for the 500 bp upstream of transcription start sites (TSS). Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) with massively parallel high throughput sequencing (Seq) was used to map genome-wide histone H4 acetylation (K4/7/11/15) in the presence or absence of SAHA in differentiating MC3T3 sc4 osteoblasts.
