Project description:Epigenetic regulation of gene expression, including by Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins, may depend on heritable chromatin states but how these states can be propagated through mitosis is unclear. Using immunofluorescence and biochemical fractionation, we find PcG proteins associated with mitotic chromosomes in Drosophila S2 cells. Genome-wide sequencing of chromatin immunoprecipitations (ChIP-SEQ) from mitotic cells indicates that Posterior Sex Combs (PSC) and Polyhomeotic (PH) are not present at well-characterized PcG targets including Hox genes in mitosis, but do remain at 11% of their interphase sites. 26% of interphase PSC sites overlap with recently described chromatin domain borders (Sexton et al., 2012), which are genomic regions characterized by low levels of long range contacts. PSC and PH are preferentially retained at these sites in mitosis, including borders flanking both Hox gene clusters. We hypothesize that disruption of long range chromatin contacts in mitosis contributes to PcG protein release from most sites, while persistent binding at sites with minimal long range contacts may nucleate re-establishment of PcG binding and chromosome organization after mitosis.

Drosophila S2 cells were colchicine-treated and stained with anti-H3S10p antibody and FACS sorted to give mitotic samples. In parallel asynchronous Drosophila S2 cell cultures were stained for anti-H3 antibody and FACS sorted to give control samples. Chromatin from each of these sorted populations was immunoprecipitated using biotinylated antibodies against PSC. Two replicates of these samples are included. A stable Drosophila S2 cell line expressing biotin-tagged PH was also FACS sorted as above to give mitotic and control samples, and streptavidin-coated beads were used to pulldown biotinlyated PH. Inputs are included for each sample.

Project description:Nucleus is a highly structured organelle and contains many functional compartments. While the structural basis for this complex spatial organization of compartments is unknown, a major component of this organization is likely to be the non-chromatin scaffolding called nuclear matrix (NuMat). Experimental evidence over the past decades indicates that most of the nuclear functions are at least transiently associated with the NuMat although the components of NuMat itself are poorly known. Here, we report NuMat proteome analysis from Drosophila melanogaster embryos and discuss its links with nuclear architecture and functions. In the NuMat proteome, we find structural proteins, chaperones related, DNA/RNA binding, chromatin remodeling and transcription factors. This complexity of NuMat proteome is an indicator of its structural and functional significance. Comparison of the 2D profile of NuMat proteome from different developmental stages of Drosophila embryos shows that less than half of the NuMat proteome is constant and rest of the proteins are stage specific dynamic components. This NuMat dynamics suggests a possible functional link between NuMat and the embryonic development. Finally, we also show that a subset of NuMat proteins remain associated with the mitotic chromosomes implicating their role in mitosis and possibly the epigenetic cellular memory. NuMat proteome analysis provides tools and opens up ways to understand nuclear organization and function.

Project description:Trithorax group (TrxG) proteins counteract Polycomb silencing by an as yet uncharacterized mechanism. A well-known member of the TrxG is the histone methyltransferase Absent, Small, or Homeotic discs 1 (ASH1). In Drosophila ASH1 is needed for the maintenance of Hox gene expression throughout development, which is tightly coupled to preservation of cell identity. In order to understand the molecular function of ASH1 in this process, we performed affinity purification of tandem-tagged ASH1 followed by mass spectrometry (AP-MS) and identified FSH, another member of the TrxG as interaction partner. Here we provide genome-wide chromatin maps of both proteins based on ChIP-seq.
