Project description:The N-terminal tail of histone H2A shows evolutionary changes that parallel genome size and aid chromatin compaction. As genome size increases, so does the number of arginines. In contrast, serines corellate with small genomes. Examples for such changes are arginine in position 11 and serine in position 15. To test if these residues affect mRNA levels, we analysed gene expression profiles of S.cerevisiae strains containing either WT or mutant H2A. Yeast strains have endogenous histone H2A genes deleted and express plasmid born WT or mutant H2A. PolyA RNA of these strains was analyzed by single channel microarray hybridization. Three WT biological replicates provide the control. Two biological replicates of each of the mutants containing either R11, K11, carrying a deletion in S15 and the double mutant carrying both the deletion of S15 and an insertion of R11 are analysed.

Project description:Examined gene expression changes in a histone H2A R78A mutant in Saccharomyces cerevisiae relative to wild-type cells. THe overall goal of this study was to determine the functions of histone 'sprocket' arginine residues, which insert into the DNA minor groove in the nucleosome. We examined the roles of sprocket arginine mutants in gene expression, histone incorporation, and DNA repair. Three wild-type control replicate samples and three experimental (H2A R78A) replicates

Project description:Nucleosomes are decorated with numerous post-translational modifications capable of influencing many DNA processes. Here, we describe a new class of modification, methylation of glutamine, occurring on yeast histone H2A at position 105 (Q105) and human H2A at Q104. We identify Nop1 as the methyltransferase in yeast and we demonstrate that Fibrillarin is the equivalent enzyme in human cells. Glutamine methylation of H2A is restricted to the nucleolus. Global analysis in yeast, using a H2AQ105me specific antibody, show that this modification is exclusively enriched over the 35S rDNA transcriptional unit. We show that the Q105 residue is part of the binding site for the histone chaperone FACT (Facilitator of Transcription) complex. Methylation of Q105 or its substitution to alanine disrupts binding to FACT in vitro. A yeast strain mutated at Q105 exhibits a defect in histone incorporation and shows increased transcription at rDNA genes. This defect is phenocopied by mutations in FACT that decrease its activity. Together these data identify glutamine methylation of H2A as the first histone epigenetic mark dedicated to a specific RNA polymerase and define its function as a regulator of FACT interaction with nucleosomes.

Project description:Histone ubiquitination has been suggested to serve as a “tag” for nucleosome removal during histone-to-protamine exchange that is essential for chromatin packaging in round spermatids. Here, we screen for putative E3 ligase and identify that the PHF7, containing both RING finger and PHD domains, is critical for H2A ubiquitination and histone removal. Mechanistically, its PHD domain as a histone code reader can specifically bind H3K4me3/me2 and its RING domain as a histone writer can ubiquinate H2A. So we want to use ChIP-seq to see whether all PHF7-binding peaks overlapped with those of H3K4me3. We report the application of ChIP-seq for high-throughput profiling of histone modifications in spermatids. By obtaining over 240M of sequences from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA, we generated genome-wide chromatin-state maps and PHF7 binding position of late spermatids. We find binding peaks of PHF7, H3K4me3 and ub-H2A were mainly enriched at gene-regulatory elements (-5kb to +5kb from transcriptional start site), including promoter and enhancers, indicative of important roles in gene regulations. More than 96% (n=15419) of all PHF7-binding peaks overlapped with those of H3K4me3, supporting a specific binding of PHF7 to H3k4me3. Moreover, the common binding sites between PHF7 and H3K4me3 were associated with ub-H2A. Taken together, these results demonstrate that PHF7 ubiquitinate H2A through binding with H3K4me3.

Project description:Processing of 3’ untranslated region (3’-UTR) of precursor messenger RNAs (pre-mRNA) is a fundamental step in mRNA maturation, where the mRNA transcript is cleaved at a specific site, located downstream the open reading frame of the encoded gene. The position of the cleavage site is determined by cis-acting RNA sequence elements, which are recognized with high specificity by large 3’ end processing multiprotein complexes. Two main categories of metazoan 3’ pre-mRNA processing have been identified so far, describing elaboration of either canonical mRNAs – occurring during all phases of the cell cycle and containing a characteristic Poly-Adenylation Signal (PAS) element – or histone mRNAs – prevalently occurring during the S phase and containing a Histone Downstream Element (HDE). In this work, we isolate both human endogenous canonical and histone 3’ pre-mRNA processing complexes from human nuclear extracts by using a pre-mRNA containing the 3’UTR sequence of replication-dependent histone H2A.2. This H2A.2 pre-mRNA (H2A_4m), containing both an HDE sequence and a PAS element in a native overlaid position, was modified with a 5’ photocleavable biotin tag, and with modification of few bases to allow complex assembly and purification by affinity chromatography on streptavidin-agarose beads, elution by UV irradiation and subsequent mass spectrometric identification of bound 3’ mRNA processing factors.
