Trypanosoma brucei histones are heavily modified with combinatorial post-translational modifications and mark Pol II transcription start regions with hyperacetylated H2A.

Project description:Trypanosomes diverged from the main eukaryotic lineage about 600 million years ago, and display some unusual genomic and epigenetic properties that provide valuable insight into the early processes employed by eukaryotic ancestors to regulate chromatin-mediated functions. We sequenced Trypanosoma brucei core histones by high mass accuracy middle-down mass spectrometry to map core histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) and elucidate cis‑histone combinatorial PTMs (cPTMs). T. brucei histones are heavily modified and display intricate cPTMs patterns, with numerous hypermodified cPTMs that could contribute to the formation of non‑repressive euchromatic states. The T. brucei H2A C‑terminal tail is hyperacetylated, containing up to 5 acetylated lysine residues. MNase-ChIP-seq revealed a striking enrichment of hyperacetylated H2A at Pol II transcription start regions, and showed that H2A histones that are hyperacetylated in different combinations localised to different genomic regions, suggesting distinct epigenetic functions. Our genomics and proteomics data provide insight into the complex epigenetic mechanisms used by this parasite to regulate a genome that lacks the transcriptional control mechanisms found in higher eukaryotes. The findings further demonstrate the complexity of epigenetic mechanisms that were probably shared with the last eukaryotic common ancestor.

Chip-chip from HeLa S3 expressing epitope-tagged H2Abbd, macroH2A and H2A histones: H2Abbd versus H2A, and macroH2A versus H2A, distributions on 13 regions of the HG18 assembly

Project description:The distribution of histone variants H2Abbd and macroH2A in 13 regions of the HG18 assembly have been studied using a variant of the ChIP-on-Chip technique. HeLa S3 cell lines expressing tagged histones H2A, H2Abbd or macroHA were obtained using retroviral transfer. DNA fractions associated with tagged histones were isolated using a two-step purification procedure that involved affinity chromatography on a column with anti-FLAG antibodies, followed by affinity chromatography on a Ni-agarose column. The obtained genomic DNA samples were analyzed by hybridization with custom NimbleGene genomic microarrays. Two samples. Test sample 1 is HeLa S3 cells expressing epitope-tagged histone H2Abbd and test sample 2 is HeLa S3 cells expressing epitope-tagged histone macroH2A . The control for both test sample 1 and test sample 2 is HeLa S3 expressing epitope-tagged histone H2A. Two copies of each probe per array were made.

Recycling of Histones H2A-H2B provides short-term memory of chromatin states [SCAR-seq II]

Project description:Chromatin landscapes are disrupted during DNA replication and need to be restored faithfully to maintain appropriate gene expression, including post-translational modifications (PTMs) of newly deposited histones. Whether histones H2A-H2B are accurately recycled during DNA replication and the behaviour of their associated marks during and post replication is unknown. Here we comprehensively map key modifications on H2A-H2B including H2A.Z during DNA replication. We show that H2AK119ub, H2BK120ub, and H2A.Z are recycled quantitatively and accurately during DNA replication in a symmetrical manner. Recycling occurs independently from H3-H4 chaperone pathways apart from a minor role for Polymerase alpha. H2A-H2B modifications are restored rapidly post replication and are important for timely and accurate restoration of H3-H4 marks, such as H3K27me3. This work uncovers H3-H4 and H2A-H2B crosstalk in epigenome propagation across DNA replication and suggests a model where rapid short-term memory of recycled H2A-H2B marks facilitates reestablishment of slow, long-term memory chromatin states.

Molecular basis of RanGTP-activated release of Histones H2A-H2B from Importin-9

Project description:Imp9 is the primary importin for shuttling H2A-H2B from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. It employs an unusual mechanism where the binding of RanGTP is insufficient to release H2A-H2B. The resulting stable RanGTP•Imp9•H2A-H2B complex gains nucleosome assembly activity with H2A-H2B able to be deposited into an assembling nucleosome in vitro. Using hydrogen-deuterium exchange coupled with mass spectrometry (HDX), we show that Imp9 stabilizes H2A-H2B beyond the direct binding site, like other histone chaperones. HDX also shows that binding of RanGTP releases H2A-H2B contacts at Imp9 HEAT repeats 4-5, but not 18-19. DNA- and histone-binding surfaces of H2A-H2B are exposed in the ternary complex, facilitating nucleosome assembly. We also reveal that RanGTP has a weaker affinity for Imp9 when H2A-H2B is bound. Imp9 thus provides a connection between the nuclear import of H2A-H2B and its deposition into chromatin.

MCM2 promotes symmetric inheritance of modified histones during DNA replication

Project description:During genome replication, parental histones are recycled to newly replicated DNA with their post-translational modifications (PTMs). It remains unknown whether sister chromatids inherit modified histones evenly. Here, we measured histone PTM partition to sister chromatids in embryonic stem cells. We found that parental histones H3-H4 segregate to both daughter DNA strands with a weak leading strand bias, skewing partition at topologically associating domain (TAD) borders and enhancers proximal to replication initiation zones. Segregation of parental histones to the leading strand increased markedly in cells with histone-binding mutations in MCM2, part of the replicative helicase, exacerbating histone PTM sister chromatid asymmetry. This work reveals how histones are inherited to sister chromatids and identifies a mechanism for how symmetric cell division is ensured by the replication machinery.

Lysine benzoylation - Here we report the identification and characterization of a histone mark, lysine benzoylation (Kbz). Our study identifies 22 Kbz sites on histones from HepG2 and RAW cells. This type of histone mark can be stimulated by sodium benzoate (SB), a FDA-approved drug and a widely used chemical food preservative, via generation of benzoyl CoA.

Molecular landscape of modified histones in Drosophila heterochromatin

Project description:The aim of this study is to analyze the distribution of the modified histones in and around peri-centromeric heterochromatin at high resolutions for understanding the molecular nature of the heterochromatic genes and euchromatin-heterochromatin transition. Since heterochromatin is repeat-rich, stringent repeat-filtering was applied in the genome-tiling array design. When possible, parallel analyses were performed with two different types of reference controls, namely total genomic DNA and histone H3 C-terminus ChIP.
