Project description:We use ChIP-Seq technology to profile the occupancy of histone H2A.Z and its chaperone in HeLa cells genome wide to check if they are co-colocalized. H2A.Z is ChIPed by antibody and its chaperone is tagged by Flag and ChIPed by M2 beads against Flag. ChIPed fragments are sequenced by Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform.

Project description:We report a genome wide enrichment, redistribution and accumulation of H2A.Z at specific chromatin control regions, in particular at enhancers and insulators, in mouse embryonic fibroblasts depleted for Anp32e (MEFs Anp32e-/-).

Project description:Rapid removal of the histone variant H2A.Z from neural chromatin is a key step in learning-induced gene expression and memory formation, but the molecular mechanisms underlying learning-induced H2A.Z removal are unknown. Anp32e was recently identified an H2A.Z-specific histone chaperone that removes H2A.Z from nucleosomes in dividing cells, but whether it plays a similar role in non-dividing neurons is unknown. Moreover, prior studies only investigated effects of Anp32e on H2A.Z binding under steady state-conditions, such that its effect on H2A.Z removal under stimulus-induced conditions is unknown. Here, we show that Anp32e regulates H2A.Z binding in neurons under steady-state conditions, but that stimulus-induced H2A.Z removal is largely independent of Anp32e. In assessing the functional consequences of Anp32e, we showed that its depletion leads to H2A.Z-dependent impairment in dendritic arborization in cultured hippocampal neurons, as well as impaired recall of contextual fear memory and transcriptional regulation. Together, these data indicate the Anp32E regulates behavioral and morphological outcomes by preventing H2A.Z accumulation in chromatin rather than by regulating activity-mediated H2A.Z dynamics.

Project description:In most eukaryotes, the centromere is epigenetically defined by nucleosomes that contain the histone H3 variant centromere protein A (CENP-A). Specific targeting of the CENP-A-loading chaperone to the centromere is vital for stable centromere propagation; however, the existence of ectopic centromeres (neocentromeres) indicates that this chaperone can function in different chromatin environments. The mechanism responsible for accommodating the CENP-A chaperone at novel chromatin regions is poorly understood. Here, we report the identification of transient, immature neocentromeres in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, which show reduced association with the CENP-A chaperone Scm3 attributable to persistence of the histone H2A variant H2A.Z. Following acquisition of adjacent heterochromatin or relocation of the immature neocentromeres to subtelomeric regions, H2A.Z was depleted and Scm3 was replenished, leading to subsequent stabilization of the neocentromeres. These findings provide novel insights into histone variant-mediated epigenetic control of neocentromere establishment.

Project description:In eukaryotes, DNA wraps around histones to form nucleosomes, which are compacted into chromatin. DNA-templated processes, including transcription, require chromatin disassembly and reassembly mediated by histone chaperones. Additionally, distinct histone variants can replace core histones to regulate chromatin structure and function. Although replacement of H2A with the evolutionarily conserved H2A.Z via the SWR1 histone chaperone complex has been extensively studied, in plants little is known about how a reduction of H2A.Z levels can be achieved in plants. Here, we show that NRP proteins cause a decrease of H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes in Arabidopsis under standard growing conditions. nrp1-1 nrp2-2 double mutants show an over-accumulation of H2A.Z genome-wide, especially at heterochromatic regions normally H2A.Z-depleted in wild-type plants. Our work suggests that NRP proteins regulate gene expression by counteracting SWR1, thereby preventing excessive accumulation of H2A.Z.

Project description:Here we report a novel role for H2A.Z.2 (H2AFV) as a mediator of cell proliferation and sensitivity to targeted therapies in malignant melanoma. While both H2A.Z.1 and H2A.Z.2 are highly expressed in metastatic melanoma and correlate with decreased patient survival, only H2A.Z.2 deficiency results in impaired cellular proliferation of melanoma cells, which occurs via a G1/S arrest. Integrated gene expression and ChIP-seq analyses revealed that H2A.Z.2 positively regulates E2F target genes, and that such genes acquire a distinct H2A.Z occupancy signature over the promoter and gene body in metastatic melanoma cells. We further identified the BET family member BRD2 as an H2A.Z-interacting protein in melanoma cells, and demonstrate that H2A.Z.2 silencing cooperates with BET inhibition to induce cell death. Total RNA samples from SKmel147 melanoma cell line. Transcript levels were analyzed after control or H2AZ variant RNA interference.
