Drosophila HP1a IP-MS - The composition and organization of Drosophila heterochromatin are heterogeneous and dynamic

Project description:Heterochromatin is enriched for characteristic epigenetic factors, including Heterochromatin Protein 1a (HP1a) and is essential for many organismal functions. However, how this nuclear domain is organized and functions is unclear. We extensively investigated heterochromatin protein compostion by biochemically purifying Drosophila melanogaster HP1a interactors.

Interplay of pericentromeric genome organization and chromatin landscape regulates the expression of Drosophila melanogaster heterochromatic genes [5C]

Project description:Transcription of genes residing within constitutive heterochromatin is paradoxical to the tenets of epigenetic code. Regulatory mechanisms of Drosophila melanogaster heterochromatic gene transcription remain largely unknown. We investigated the contribution of pericentromeric genome organization and heterochromatic factors in orchestrating heterochromatic gene expression. Using 5C-seq, we characterized the pericentromeric TADs in Drosophila melanogaster. Het TAD borders are enriched in nuclear matrix attachment regions while the intra-TAD interactions are mediated by various insulator binding proteins. Heterochromatic genes of similar expression levels cluster into Het TADs, indicating transcriptional co-regulation. HP1a or Su(var)3-9 RNAi results in perturbation of global pericentromeric TAD organization but the expression of the heterochromatic genes is minimally affected. A subset of active heterochromatic genes has been shown to have combination of HP1a/H3K9me3 with H3K36me3 at their exons. Consequently, knock-down of dMES-4 (H3K36 methyl transferase) downregulates expression of the heterochromatic genes. Furthermore, dADD1, present near the TSS of the active heterochromatic genes, is likely to regulate the heterochromatic gene expression in the presence of HP1a or H3K9me3 marks. Therefore, our findings provide mechanistic insights into the interplay of chromatin interactions and the combination of heterochromatic factors (HP1a, H3K9me3, dMES-4 and dADD1) in regulating heterochromatic gene expression.

HP1a recruitment to promoters is independent of H3K9 methylation in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) proteins are important regulators of heterochromatin mediated gene silencing and chromosome structure and it is well known as the reader of the heterochromatin mark methylation of histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9me). In Drosophila three different histone lysine methyl transferases (HKMTs) are associated with the methylation of H3K9; Su(var)3-9, Setdb1 and G9a. To gain insights on the dependence of HP1a on the three different HKMTs, the division of labor between these methyl transferases and the dependence of HP1a on H3K9me we have studied HP1a binding in relation to H3K9me in mutants of these HKMTs. We show that Su(var)3-9 is responsible for the HP1a H3K9me-dependent binding in pericentromeric regions while Setdb1 controls the HP1a H3K9me-dependent binding to cytological region 2L:31 and together with POF chromosome 4. HP1a binds to the promoters and within gene bodies of active genes in these three regions. More importantly, HP1a bound at promoters of active genes are independent of H3K9me and POF and is associated to heterochromatin protein 2 (HP2) and open chromatin. Our results supports a model where HP1a nucleates with high affinity independent of H3K9me in promoters of active genes and then spreads via H3K9 methylation and transient looping contacts with those H3K9me target sites.
