Project description:The condensin complex is well known to be essential for correct packaging and segregation of chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis in all eukaryotes. To date, the genome wide location and the nature of condensin binding sites has remained elusive in vertebrate systems. A detailed knowledge of condensin binding sites is essential to understand the as-yet enigmatic function of this complex and to define its greater role in chromosome architecture. To address this, we have used next generation sequencing to map condensin I in chicken DT40 cells. Unexpectedly, we found condensin I binds predominately to promoter sequences in mitotic cells. We also found a striking enrichment at both centromeres and telomeres, highlighting the importance of the complex in chromosome segregation. Taken together, the results show condensin I is largely absent from heterochromatic regions. These results reveal for the first time the condensin I binding sites in the vertebrate genome, and demonstrate the importance of the complex in genome segregation and suggest a novel function in gene regulation. Condensin associated DNA from chicken DT40 cells were affinity purified using streptavidin and deep sequenced by Illumina Hiseq2000

Project description:Condensins are multi-subunit protein complexes that regulate chromosome structure throughout cell-cycle. Metazoans contain two types of condensin complexes (I and II) with essential and distinct functions. In C. elegans a third type of condensin (IDC) functions as part of the X chromosome dosage compensation complex1,2. We mapped genome-wide binding sites of the three condensin types in C. elegans embryos. Characteristics of condensin binding are similar between condensin types.

ChIP-seq profiles of C. elegans subunits of the three condensins in 3-6 replicates from mixed stage embryos, controls are included, and RNA-Seq profiles of C. elegans in 5 replicates from mixed staged embryos. Additionally, ChIP-seq profiles of the condensin II subunit KLE-2 in 6 replicates from L3 with controls, and RNA-Seq profiles of KLE-2 mutants in 3 replicates each from L3.

Project description:Vertebrate condensin I and II molecules are loaded onto the genome to mediate essential changes in chromosome condensation during mitosis, but it is not clear how the two forms of condensin become distributed on chromosomes. We report here that condensin II, the form of condensin present in the nucleus throughout the cell cycle, is loaded at transcriptionally active promoters, migrates through these genes in a transcription-dependent fashion and accumulates in transcription termination regions during interphase. During mitosis, condensin I is recruited to actively transcribed genes and replaces condensin II. We conclude that the two forms of condensin are loaded at different times during the cell division cycle at the promoters of actively transcribed genes.

Project description:Three-dimensional organization of mitotic chromosomes is established by cohesin and condensin complexes. In the centromere, cohesin maintains sister chromatid pairing until anaphase onset, while condensin provides elastic resistance to spindle forces. However, how condensin and cohesin structure vertebrate centromeres remains unclear. By super-resolution imaging, Capture-C analysis and polymer modeling we show that vertebrate centromeres are partitioned into two condensin-dependent subdomains during mitosis. This bipartite sub-structure is found in human, mouse and chicken centromeres, and is therefore a fundamental feature of vertebrate centromere. Super-resolution imaging and electron tomography reveal that bipartite centromeres assemble bipartite kinetochores with each subdomain capable of binding a distinct microtubule bundle. Cohesin helps to link the centromere subdomains, limiting their separation in response to spindle forces and preventing merotelic attachments. The two-domain structure described here may have implications for avoiding chromosomal instability as uncoupling of centromere subdomains is a common feature of lagging chromosomes in cancer cells.

Project description:Condensin molecules are loaded onto the genome to mediate essential changes in chromosome condensation during mitosis, but it is not clear why there are two forms of vertebrate condensin that become differentially distributed on chromosomes. We report here that condensin II, the form of condensin present in the nucleus throughout the cell cycle, functions specifically at active genes. Condensin II is loaded at transcriptionally active promoters in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), migrates through these genes in a transcription-dependent fashion and accumulates in transcription termination regions. Unlike cohesin, which is also loaded at active promoters, condensin II has little influence on transcription. We conclude that condensin II is loaded and distributed across actively transcribed chromatin and thus serves to specifically condense this euchromatic portion of chromosomes during the cell division cycle. ChIP-Seq data for Condensin II and Cohesin in v6.5 ESCs treated or not with the RNA polymerase II elongation inhibitor flavopiridol.

Project description:Genome/chromosome organization is highly ordered and controls nuclear events. Here, we show that the TATA box-binding protein (TBP) interacts with the Cnd2 kleisin subunit of condensin to mediate interphase and mitotic chromosome organization in fission yeast. TBP recruits condensin onto RNA polymerase III-transcribed (Pol III) genes and highly transcribed Pol II genes; condensin in turn associates these genes with centromeres. Inhibition of the Cnd2-TBP interaction disrupts condensin localization across the genome and the proper assembly of mitotic chromosomes, leading to severe defects in chromosome segregation and eventually causing cellular lethality. We propose that the Cnd2-TBP interaction coordinates transcription with chromosomal architecture by linking dispersed gene loci with centromeres. This chromosome arrangement can contribute to the efficient transmission of physical force at the kinetochore to chromosomal arms, thereby supporting the fidelity of chromosome segregation. Genome-wide distributions of condensin and Pol III factors in fission yeast.
