Methylation of Q105 on histone H2A is part of a dynamic regulatory mechanism integrating metabolism with ribosome biogenesis through recruitment of Nhp2

ABSTRACT: Ribosome biogenesis is an essential process within cells that requires integration of extracellular cues such as metabolic states through signaling with transcriptional regulation and maintenance of accessible chromatin at the ribosomal DNA. Here, we demonstrate that the recently identified histone modification, methylation of H2AQ105 is an integral part of a dynamic chromatin network at the rDNA locus. Its deposition depends on a functional mTor signaling pathway and acetylation of histone H3 at position K56, thus integrating signals from cell cycle and proliferative states. Furthermore, we identify a first epigenetic reader of this modification. The ribonucleoprotein Nhp2 specifically recognizes methylation H2AQ105me. Based on functional and proteomic data we suggest that Nhp2 functions as an adapter to bridge chromatin and components of the small subunit processome and might help to efficiently coordinate transcription of rRNA with its post-transcriptional processing.

Project description:Previous work identified the winged helix-turn-helix DNA binding transcription factor (TF) RosR (encoded by VNG0258H gene), which dynamically regulates expression of more than 300 genes in response to oxidative stress in Halobacterium salinarum (Sharma 2012). RosR is required for survival of oxidants from multiple sources (e.g. H2O2 and paraquat), as deletion mutants are impaired for ROS outgrowth. Genes directly and indirectly controlled by RosR in response to ROS encode macromolecular repair functions. In the current study, we ask which of these genes are direct targets of RosR regulation. Dynamic chromatin immunoprecipitation combined with microarray (ChIP-chip) analysis validates that genes encoding these functions are direct targets of RosR binding and control. In addition, new RosR direct target genes are identified, including those encoding central cellular functions and a surprisingly high number of other TFs. The majority of the 252 sites throughout the genome are RosR-bound in the absence of stress and cleared of RosR binding in the presence of H2O2. However, binding is dynamic, with promoter-specific differences in the timing of RosR-DNA release and re-binding relative to ROS exposure. Halobacterium salinarum harboring VNG0258H(rosR)::myc was grown to mid-logarithmic phase (OD600 ~ 0.2 - 0.4) and either left untreated or exposed to 25 mM H2O2 for 10, 20, and 60 minutes. Transcription factor-chromatin complexes from each treated time point and untreated cultures were then cross-linked in vivo with 1% formaldehyde for 30 min at room temperature and subjected to immunoprecipitation (IP) by virtue of the myc epitope tag as described previously (Schmid et al. 2011). One M-BM-5g of each IP sample was hybridized against matched, mock-treated controls on a custom 2 x 105,000 feature 60-mer oligonucleotide microarray (Agilent Technologies, AMADID 026819). On this high-resolution array, the entire H. salinarum genome was tiled every 30 bp in triplicate. Randomly selected regions of the genome were spotted in quadruplicate. Dye swaps were conducted to correct for bias in incorporation. Seven biological replicate experiments were conducted for VNG0258::myc in the absence of H2O2 and three in the presence of H2O2. Four biological replicate experiments in an H. salinarum strain harboring the empty vector control plasmid were conducted to detect background peaks resulting from technical aspects of the protocol. This yielded a total of at least 18 replicate intensity data points per 30-bp genomic region per condition. DNA fragments were directly labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes (Kreatech) as described previously (Facciotti et al., 2007). Microarray slide hybridization and washing protocols were conducted according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions (Agilent technologies) with the exception that hybridization was conducted in the presence of 37.5% formamide at 68M-KM-^ZC to ensure proper stringency.
