A Novel Role of Polycomb in Positive Transcription Regulation by Modulating H4K20me1

ABSTRACT: Polycomb group (PcG) proteins were originally shown to play central roles in maintaining heritable gene suppression during the normal development of higher eukaryotes. However, recent studies in Drosophila and mammals imply a potential positive role of PcG proteins in gene transcription with unknown mechanism. Here, for the first time we report Pc-mediated, E(z)/H3K27me3-dependent positive transcription regulation of Ci and Sens, two key transcription factors involved in body plan during normal development. Further mechanistic studies showed that Pc regulates Sens expression by regulating H4K20me1 at Sens locus. More importantly, this mechanism applies to other genes involved in the developmental process. In summary, we report a novel and general transcription regulation mechanism, that is, Pc-mediated, E(z)/H3K27me3-dependent positive transcription regulation by modulating H4K20me1 during development.

ChIPseq on H4K20me1 on TX1072 cell line at different times of Xist induction through Doxycycline.

Project description:During X chromosome inactivation (XCI), in female mammals, gene silencing is initiated by a long-noncoding RNA, called Xist. Xist RNA accumulation also allows for the deposition of specific chromatin marks. Among others, PRC2-dependent H3K27me3 and PrSet7-dependent H4K20me1 become enriched at the inactive X chromosome. However, the dynamics of this process in relation to Xist RNA accumulation remains unknown as is the molecular mechanism allowing for H4K20me1 enrichment. To follow XCI dynamics in living cells, we developed a genetically encoded, H3K27me3-specific intracellular antibody, or H3K27me3-mintbody. By combining it with live-imaging of H4K20me1, the X chromosome and Xist RNA we uncover striking similarities in the accumulation dynamics of H3K27me3 and H4K20me1. Further ChIP-seq analysis confirmed concurrent accumulation of H4K20me1 and H3K27me3 during XCI albeit with distinct genomic distributions. Xist B and C repeat mutant, which can silence the X but does not allow for H3K27me3 enrichment, also showed lack of H4K20me1 deposition. Thus, both H3K27me3 and H4K20me1 are deposited at the inactive X through a common molecular mechanism but are dispensable for the initiation of gene silencing.

Mapping of H3K27me3 enrichment in Drosophila larval brain tissue using ChIP-chip

Project description:We made Polycomb (PC) and histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) chromatin binding maps in central brain tissue from 3rd instar larvae, allowing us to make a direct comparison to our 4C data (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE23166). Our results demonstrate that our PC and H3K27me3 maps are highly similar, and fit with previously identified hallmarks of PcG-bound chromatin, namely: PC and H3K27me3 co-occur in the genome as large contiguous domains that largely repress transcription of the underlying genes, which encode important regulators of development. Keywords: Genome binding/occupancy profiling by genome tiling array ChIP-chip experiments for H3K27me3 were performed in Drosophila larval brain tissue. Samples were hybridized to 380k NimbleGen arrays with 300 bp probe spacing.

Cut & Run mapping the alteration of H4K20me1 and transcription activity in cultured MuSC upon Suv420h1 depletion.

Project description:H4K20me1/2/3 is dynamically regulated during cell cycle to maintain the genomic stability. Here, we found that depletion of H4K20 di-methyltransferase Suv420h1 in mouse adult MuSCs leads to strong accumulation of H4K20me1 specifically in S phase. In response to it, the transcription activity is increased upon Suv420h1 depletion. To investigate which genomic regions and how the transcription are regulated by Suv420h1 in MuSC, we performed Cut&Run of H4K20me1 and RNA polymerase II Ser2P in control and Suv420h1 inactivated MuSCs.

VAL1 acts as an assembly platform co-ordinating co-transcriptional repression and chromatin 2 regulation at Arabidopsis FLC

Project description:• Polycomb (PcG) regulation is crucial for development across eukaryotes, but how PcG targets are specified is still incompletely understood. The slow timescale of cold-induced Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 silencing during vernalization at Arabidopsis thaliana FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) provides an excellent system to elucidate the sequence of events. Association of the DNA binding protein VAL1 to an FLC intronic RY motif within the PcG nucleation region is an important step. VAL1 is associated in vivo with APOPTOSIS AND SPLICING ASSOCIATED PROTEIN (ASAP) complex and Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1). Here, we show that ASAP and PRC1 functions are necessary for co-transcriptional repression and chromatin regulation during FLC silencing. ASAP mutants affect FLC transcription in warm conditions, but the rate of FLC silencing in the cold is unaffected. PRC1-mediated H2Aub accumulation increases at the nucleation region upon exposure to cold, but unlike the PRC2-delivered H3K27me3 does not spread across the locus. H2Aub is thus involved in the transition to epigenetic silencing at FLC facilitating H3K27me3 accumulation, which in turn is necessary for long-term epigenetic memory. Overall, our work highlights the importance of the DNA sequence-specific binding protein VAL1 as an assembly platform coordinating the co-transcriptional repression and chromatin regulation necessary for the epigenetic silencing of FLC.

Identification of new regulators of the three dimensional Polycomb organization by a microscopy-based genome-wide RNAi screen

Project description:Polycomb group (PcG) proteins dynamically define cellular identities through epigenetic repression of key developmental genes. PcG target gene repression can be stabilized through the interaction in the nucleus at PcG foci. Here, we report the results of a high-resolution microscopy genome-wide RNAi screen that identifies 129 genes that regulate the nuclear organization of Pc foci. Candidate genes include PcG components and chromatin factors, as well as many novel protein-modifying enzymes, including components of the SUMOylation pathway. In the absence of SUMO Pc foci coagulate into larger aggregates. Conversely, loss of function of the SUMO peptidase velo disperses Pc foci. Moreover, SUMO and velo colocalize with PcG proteins at PREs and Pc SUMOylation affects its chromatin targeting, suggesting that the dynamic regulation of Pc SUMOylation regulates PcG-mediated silencing by modulating the kinetics of Pc binding to chromatin as well as its ability to form Polycomb foci.
