A SWI/SNF-specific Ig-like domain, SWIFT, is a transcription factor binding platform

ABSTRACT: Mammalian SWI/SNF (BAF) chromatin remodeling complexes modulate DNA accessibility and gene expression, however, the mechanisms by which they are targeted on chromatin remain incompletely understood. Here, we define SWIFT (SWI/SNF Ig-Fold for Transcription Factor Interactions), found on the SMARCD family of subunits within the core module as an evolutionarily conserved, broad transcription factor (TF) binding platform. SWIFT is necessary and sufficient for direct interaction with the transactivation domain of a lineage-specific TF, PU.1, in vitro and in cells, with a single amino acid mutation in SWIFT able to disrupt PU.1-mSWI/SNF binding, inhibit site-specific complex targeting and activity, and attenuate oncogenic gene expression and proliferation of PU.1-dependent cancer cells. Dominant expression of SWIFT in isolation across cell types sequesters mSWI/SNF-interacting TFs and poisons TF-addicted cancer cells. Finally, TFs interact with SWIFT in a SMARCD paralog-specific manner, informing approaches for modulation of cell type- and disease-specific transcription.

The hematopoietic master transcription factor PU.1 requires its interaction with the SWI/SNF remodeler to access chromatin de novo

Project description:PU.1 is a prototype master transcription factor (TF) of hematopoietic cell differentiation with diverse roles in different lineages. Analysis of its genome-wide binding pattern across PU.1 expressing cell types revealed manifold cell type-specific binding patterns. They are not consistent with the epigenetic and chromatin constraints to PU.1 binding observed in vitro, suggesting that PU.1 requires auxiliary factors to access DNA in vivo. Using a model of transient mRNA expression we show that PU.1 induction leads to the extensive remodeling of chromatin, redistribution of partner transcription factors and rapid initiation of a myeloid gene expression program in heterologous cell types. By probing PU.1 mutants for defects in chromatin access and screening for PU.1 proximal proteins in vivo, we found that its N-terminal acidic domain was required for the recruitment of SWI/SNF remodeling complexes, de novo chromatin access and stable binding as well as the redistribution of partner TFs.

Chromatin occupancy profiling of AML transcription factors upon SWI/SNF inhibition [ChIP-seq]

Project description:To reveal the effects of SWI/SNF inhibition on genome-wide transcription factor occupancy in AML cells, we performed ChIP-seq in THP-1 cells, and compared the effects of BRM014 with DMSO vehicle control. We also examined the effects of SMARCA4 chromatin targeting via treatment with the PU.1 inhibitor DB2313. Analysis of genome-wide occupancy by ChIP-seq reveals that SWI/SNF inhibition impairs PU.1-directed enhancer programs in AML cells.

Signal-dependent incorporation of MyoD-BAF60c into Brg1-based SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex

Project description:Tissue-specific transcription factors initiate differentiation toward a specialized cell type by inducing transcription-permissive chromatin modifications at target gene promoters, through the recruitment of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex (1, 2). The molecular mechanism that regulates the chromatin re-distribution of SWI/SNF in response to differentiation signals is currently unknown. Here we show that the muscle determination factor MyoD and the SWI/SNF structural sub-unit, BAF60c (SMARCD3), form a complex on the regulatory elements of MyoD-target genes in undifferentiated myoblasts, prior to the activation of gene expression. MyoD-BAF60c complex is devoid of the ATP-dependent enzymatic sub-units Brg1 and Brm, is required for stable MyoD binding to Ebox sequences, and marks the chromatin for signal-dependent recruitment of the SWI/SNF core complex to muscle loci. BAF60c phosphorylation on a conserved threonine by differentiation-activated p38 signalling promotes the incorporation of MyoD-BAF60c into a Brg1-based SWI/SNF complex, which is competent to remodel the chromatin and activates transcription of MyoD-target genes. Our data support an unprecedented two-step model, by which pre-assembled BAF60c-MyoD complex directs the SWI/SNF complex chromatin re-distribution to muscle loci in response to differentiation cues. Differentiation of C2C12 cells individually interfered for BRG1, BAF60B, BAF60C

Deletion of SWI/SNF ATPase activity in hepatocytes of adult liver disrupts circadian gene expression and central liver functions [RNAseq]

Project description:The circadian rhythm in the murine liver governs the activity of numerous enhancers which in turn coordinates diurnal gene expression. This process is controlled by oscillating activities of specific transcription factors (TFs) and recruitment of co-regulators, including histone modifying enzymes and chromatin remodeling complexes. Several circadian controlled TFs interact with the SWI/SNF family of chromatin remodeling complexes to control chromatin accessibility. To unravel the significance of SWI/SNF ATPase subunits in circadian chromatin remodeling, we mapped chromatin accessibility, SWI/SNF occupancy, and gene expression throughout a day in murine liver. We found remarkable remodeling during fasting-to-fed transitions, and a third of circadian enhancers exhibited circadian SWI/SNF occupancy and accessibility. Intriguingly, genetic disruption of either of the two mutually exclusive ATPases of SWI/SNF had minor effects on chromatin accessibility in circadian enhancers, indicating redundancy. However, simultaneous disruption of both ATPases caused a collapse of the chromatin landscape, liver damage and inflammation. This disruption abolishes rhythmic expression of metabolic genes without affecting oscillation of the core circadian clock. In summary, this suggests an indispensable role of SWI/SNF-mediated chromatin remodeling of enhancers for circadian transcriptomic rhythms and basic liver function.
