Project description:An Interaction between RRP6 and SU(VAR)3-9 Targets RRP6 to Heterochromatin and Contributes to Heterochromatin Maintenance in Drosophila melanogaster [RNA-seq]
| PRJNA289205 | ENA
Project description:We have investigated the effect of RRP6 depletion on the transcriptome of S2 cells using Illumina deep RNA sequencing. We have also carried out Illumina ChIP-seq analysis of RRP6 genome occupancy in control S2 cells (GFP-KD) and in cells depleted of SU(VAR)3-9.

Project description:Heterochromatin protein 1a (HP1a) is a chromatin associated protein that has been well studied in many model organisms, such as Drosophila, where it is a determining factor for classical heterochromatin. HP1a is associated with the two histone methyltransferases SETDB1 and Su(var)3-9, which mediate H3K9 methylation marks and participate in the establishment and spreading of HP1a enriched chromatin. While HP1a is generally regarded as a factor that represses gene transcription, several reports have linked HP1a binding to active genes, and in some cases, it has been shown to stimulate transcriptional activity. To clarify the function of HP1a in transcription regulation and its association with Su(var)3-9, SETDB1 and the chromosome 4 specific protein POF, we conducted genome-wide expression studies and combined the results with available binding data in Drosophila melanogaster. The results suggested that HP1a has a repressing function on chromosome 4, where it preferentially targets non-ubiquitously expressed genes (NUEGs), and a stimulating function in pericentromeric regions. Further, we showed that the effects of SETDB1 and Su(var)3-9 are similar to HP1a, and on chromosome 4, Su(var)3-9, SETDB1 and HP1a target the same genes. In contrast, transposons are repressed by HP1a and Su(var)3-9 but are un-affected by SETDB1 and POF. In addition, we found that the binding level and expression effects of HP1a are affected by gene length. Our results indicate that genes have adapted to be properly expressed in their local chromatin environment. We prepared total RNA from 1st instar larvae trans-heterozygous for HP1a04/HP1a05, trans-heterozygous Su(var)3-9evo/Su(var)3-906, homozygous Setdb110.1/ Setdb110.1 mutants and trans-heterozygous HP1a04 PofD119/HP1a05 PofD119 double mutants three biological replicates, as well as from six biological replicates of wildtype control 1st instar larvae.

Project description:Su(var) genes control heterochromatin establishment and maintenance in Drosophila melanogaster. Through a new Su(var) screen, we identified Su140 and Su113 as very strong Su(var) mutants that are epistatic over Su(var)3-9 in the In(1)wm4h PEV rearrangement. Both Su140 and Su113 encode point mutations in the PWWP domain of the transcriptional cofactor JASPer that has described functions in protecting gene activity in euchromatin. In JasperSu140/Su140 and JasperSu113/Su113 nuclear cycle (NC14) mutant embryos, heterochromatic marks (H3K9me2 and H3K9me3) are reduced, while activating histone modifications (H3K4me1 and H3K27ac) become enriched at heterochromatin. Whereas wild-type JASPer is enriched over H3K36me3-positive regions in gene bodies, JASPerSu140 is redistributed to regulatory elements in promoters and enhancers. JASPerSu140 directly binds and activates the white gene enhancer in NC14 embryos and JasperSu140/Su140 mutants induce a partial decompaction of the heterochromatin compartment containing the In(1)wm4h rearrangement. In addition, JasperSu140/Su140 and JasperSu113/su113 mutants also display elevated levels for 359bp (satellite) repeat transcripts at later stages of development. Together, these data define Jasper mutants as novel Su(var) genes and highlight the importance of maintaining the balance between euchromatic and heterochromatic domains for controlling position effect variegation.

At genes, JASPerSu140 relocates to transcriptional start sites (TSS). Also, one third of developmentally regulated enhancers, including the white enhancer, show enrichment for JASPerSu140 and display elevated levels of eRNA in JasperSu140/Su140 NC14 embryos. In addition, JasperSu140/Su140 mutants induce a partial decompaction of the heterochromatin compartment containing the In(1)wm4h rearrangement and activate satellite repeat expression.
