Project description:Centromeres are essential to ensure proper chromosome segregation in eukaryotes. Their definition relies on the presence of a centromere-specific H3 histone variant CenH3, known as CENP-A in mammals. Its overexpression in aggressive cancers raises questions concerning its effect on chromatin dynamics and contribution to tumorigenesis. We find that CenH3 overexpression in human cells leads to ectopic enrichment at sites of active histone turnover. Furthermore, in over-expressing conditions, we see the formation of a novel heterotypic particle (CenH3-H4/H3.3-H4) that occludes CTCF binding, but this occlusion has only a minor effect on gene expression. Ectopic localization and CTCF occlusion depends on the H3.3 chaperone DAXX, rather than its dedicated chaperone HJURP. This DAXX-dependent occlusion also occurs in naturally overexpressing cancer cells. Furthermore, our cellular model reveals a DAXX-dependent survival advantage when challenged by DNA damage. Our findings illustrate how changes in histone variant levels can disrupt chromatin dynamics in disease and provides a possible mechanism for cell resistance to anti-cancer treatments. Examination of CenH3 ChIP-seq and RNA-seq transcriptional programs in two conditions - WT and CenH3 over-expressing.

Project description:Accurate chromosome segregation requires assembly of the multiprotein kinetochore complex at centromeres. In most eukaryotes, kinetochore assembly is primed by the histone H3 variant CenH3, which physically interacts with components of the inner kinetochore constitutive-centromere-associated-network (CCAN). Unexpected to its critical function, previous work identified that select eukaryotic lineages, including several insects, have lost CenH3, while having retained homologs of the CCAN. These findings imply alternative CCAN assembly pathways in these organisms that function in CenH3-independent manners. Here, we study the composition and assembly of CenH3-independent kinetochores of Lepidoptera. We show that lepidopteran kinetochores consist of previously identified CCAN homologs as well as additional components including a divergent CENP-T homolog, which are required for accurate mitotic progression. Our study focuses on CENP-T that we find both necessary and sufficient to recruit the Mis12 outer kinetochore complex. In addition, CRISPR-mediated gene editing in Bombyx mori establishes an essential function of CENP-T in vivo. Finally, the retention of CENP-T homologs in other independently-derived CenH3-deficient insects indicates a conserved mechanism of kinetochore assembly between these lineages. Our study provides the first functional insights into CCAN-based kinetochore assembly pathways that function independently of CenH3, thus contributing to the emerging picture of an unexpected plasticity to build a kinetochore.

Project description:We performed bulk RNA-Seq to investigate global transcriptional changes upon overexpression of the centromeric H3 variant CenH3/CENP-A in p53 wild-type and defective cells, and after X-irradiation treatment. We established clonal MCF-10-2A TetOn-CENPA-FLAG-HA cell lines where CENP-A can be reversibly induced by Doxycycline (Dox) treatment. Upon CENP-A overexpression, these cells exhibit different radiosensitivity depending on p53 status. In order to profile global changes in expression, we compared MCF-10-2A TetOn-CENPA-FLAG-HA cells expressing either empty vector (p53-WT) or dominant-negative p53 (p53-DN) with 0X Dox (no Dox), 1X Dox (10 ng/ml), or 10X Dox (100 ng/ml) for 24h. At time 0, we irradiated one set of cells by X-ray generator (4gy) while a control set remained un-irradiated (0gy). 6h later, we extracted RNA for RNA-seq.

Project description:The centromere, as an essential element to control chromosome segregation, is epigenetically determined by CENH3-containing nucleosomes as a functional marker, therefore the accurate deposition of CENH3 is crucial to chromosome transmission. We characterized the deposition of CENH3 in maize by over-expression and mutational analysis. Our results revealed that over-expressing CENH3 in callus is lethal while over-expressing GFP-CENH3 and CENH3-YFP in callus and plants is not and can be partly deposited normally. Different mutations of GFP-CENH3 demonstrated that CENH3-Thr4 in the N terminus was needed for the deposition as a positive phosphorylation site and the last five amino acids in the C terminus are necessary for deposition. The C terminal tail of CENH3 is confirmed to be responsible for the interaction of CENH3 and histone H4, which indicates that CENH3 maintains deposition in centromeres via interacting with H4 to form stable nucleosomes. For GFP-CENH3 and CENH3-YFP, the fused tags at the termini probably affect the structure of CENH3 and reduce its interaction with other proteins, which in turn could decrease proper deposition. Taken together, multiple amino acids or motifs were shown to play essential roles in CENH3 deposition, which is suggested to be affected by numerous factors in maize.

Project description:We use high-resolution chemical cleavage mapping and both native and cross-linked chromatin immunoprecipitation with paired-end sequencing to elucidate the profile of nuceleosomes containing the centromere-specific variant of H3 (cenH3), known as CENP-A or Cnp1 in fission yeast. We find that in the central domain of fission yeast centromeres H3 nucleosomes are nearly absent and CENP-A nucleosomes are more widely spaced that nucleosomes elsewere. CENP-A (Cnp1), CENP-C (Cnp3), CENP-T (Cnp20) and CENP-I (Mis6) are highly enriched at every position in the central domain except at tRNA genes, with weak enrichment in the flanking heterochromatin where these proteins show no evidence of the positioning that has been seen in point centromeres and in the satellite-rich centromeres of plants and animals. Our findings suggest that classical regional centromeres are distinguished from other centromere classes by the absence of cenH3 nucleosome positioning.

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.
