Project description:Pch2 is an AAA+ protein that controls DNA break formation, recombination and checkpoint signaling during meiotic G2/prophase. Chromosomal association of Pch2 is linked to these processes, and several factors influence the association of Pch2 to euchromatin and the specialized chromatin of the ribosomal (r)DNA array of budding yeast. Here, we describe a comprehensive mapping of Pch2 localization across the budding yeast genome during meiotic G2/prophase. Within non-rDNA chromatin, Pch2 associates with a subset of actively RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII)-dependent transcribed genes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)- and microscopy-based analysis reveals that active transcription is required for chromosomal recruitment of Pch2. Similar to what was previously established for association of Pch2 with rDNA chromatin, we find that Orc1, a component of the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC), is required for the association of Pch2 to these euchromatic, transcribed regions, revealing a broad connection between chromosomal association of Pch2 and Orc1/ORC function. Ectopic mitotic expression is insufficient to drive recruitment of Pch2, despite the presence of active transcription and Orc1/ORC in mitotic cells. This suggests meiosis-specific ‘licensing’ of Pch2 recruitment to sites of transcription, and accordingly, we find that the synaptonemal complex (SC) component Zip1 is required for the recruitment of Pch2 to transcription-associated binding regions. Interestingly, Pch2 binding patterns are distinct from meiotic axis enrichment sites (as defined by Red1, Hop1 and Rec8). This suggests that although Pch2 is linked to axis/SC-directed recruitment and function, the chromosomal population of Pch2 described here is not directly associated with chromosomal axis sites. In line with this observation, interfering with the pool of Pch2 that associates with active RNAPII transcription does not lead to effects on the chromosomal abundance of Hop1, a known axial client of Pch2. We thus report characteristics and dependencies for Pch2 recruitment to meiotic chromosomes, and reveal an unexpected link between Pch2, SC formation, chromatin and active transcription.

Project description:The formation of RAD51/DMC1 filaments on single-stranded (ss)DNAs, which is essential for homology search and strand exchange in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair and for the protection of stalled DNA replication forks, is tightly regulated in time and space. FIGNL1 AAA+++ ATPase plays positive and negative roles in the RAD51-mediated recombination in human cells. However, the role of FIGNL1 in gametogenesis remains unsolved. Here, we characterized a germ-line-specific conditional knockout (cKO) mouse of FIGNL1. The Fignl1 cKO male mice showed defective chromosome synapsis and impaired meiotic DSB repair with the accumulation of RAD51/DMC1 on chromosomes in mid-meiotic prophase I, supporting a role of FIGNL1 in a post-assembly stage of RAD51/DMC1 filaments. Fignl1 cKO spermatocytes accumulate RAD51 and DMC1 ensembles on chromosomes not only in early meiotic prophase I but also in meiotic S-phase. These RAD51/DMC1 assemblies are independent of meiotic DSB formation. Finally, we showed that purified FIGNL1 dismantles RAD51 filament on double-stranded (ds)DNA as well as ssDNA. These results suggest a critical role of FIGNL1 to limit the uncontrolled assembly of RAD51 and DMC1 on native dsDNAs during the meiotic S-phase and meiotic prophase I.

Project description:A functional cooperation between an AAA type ATPase domain and a bromodomain has been evidenced. These two domains were identified and their activity tested in a yet uncharacterized factor, named Atad2, whose two-domain configuration remained highly conserved during evolution. In human and mouse, Atad2 is most abundantly expressed in testis and in the mouse. It has also been detected in post-meiotic stages and in mature spermatozoa. The AAA-ATPase domain was found necessary for protein multimerization and high affinity binding to acetylated nucleosomes by its bromodomain. The binding was found specific to acetylated histone H4 tail with a critical role for the acetylated K5 position. In vivo studies show that Atad2 behaves as a general repressor of transcription and possesses a chromatin “freezing” activity. Finally, we demonstrate that the induction of apoptosis leads to an early degradation of Atad2, which probably facilitates the action of apoptotic factors by increasing chromatin dynamics.

Project description:Maintenance of the correct level and organization of nucleosomes is crucial for genome function. Here we uncover a role for a conserved bromodomain AAA-ATPase, Abo1, in maintenance of nucleosome architecture in fission yeast. Cells lacking abo1+ experience both a reduction and mis-positioning of nucleosomes at transcribed sequences in addition to increased intragenic transcription, phenotypes that are hallmarks of defective chromatin re-establishment behind RNA polymerase II. Abo1 is recruited to gene sequences and associates with histone H3 and the histone chaperone FACT. Furthermore, the distribution of Abo1 on chromatin is disturbed by impaired FACT function. The role of Abo1 extends to some promoters and also to silent heterochromatin. Abo1 is recruited to pericentromeric heterochromatin independently of the HP1 ortholog, Swi6, where it enforces proper nucleosome occupancy. Consequently, loss of Abo1 alleviates silencing and causes elevated chromosome mis-segregation. We suggest that Abo1 provides a histone chaperone function that maintains nucleosome architecture genome-wide.
