Project description:The centromere specific histone H3 variant CENP-A/CENH3 specifies where the kinetochore is formed in most eukaryotes. Despite tight regulation of CENP-A levels in normal cells, overexpression of CENP-A is a feature shared by various types of solid tumors and results in its mislocalization to non-centromeric DNA. How CENP-A is assembled ectopically and the consequences of this mislocalization remain topics of high interest. Here, we report that in human colon cancer cells, the H3.3 chaperones HIRA and DAXX promote ectopic CENP-A deposition. Moreover, the correct balance between levels of the centromeric chaperone HJURP and CENP-A is essential to preclude ectopic assembly by H3.3 chaperones. In addition, we find that ectopic localization can recruit kinetochore components, and correlates with mitotic defects and DNA damage in G1 phase. Finally, CENP-A occupancy at the 8q24 locus is also correlated with amplification and overexpression of the MYC gene within that locus. Overall, these data provide insights into the causes and consequences of histone variant mislocalization in human cancer cells.

Project description:DAXX, a H3.3 histone chaperone known for its role in heterochromatin maintenance, has been understudied in the context of gene expression regulation. In this study, we generated Daxx knockout myogenic cells and observed a significant loss of myogenic markers expression and impaired differentiation. Transcriptome analysis revealed broad dysregulations in Daxx KO cells, including loss of myogenic identity and a concurrent upregulation of genes involved in DNA replication and telomere maintenance. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing demonstrated a marked reduction in H3.3 deposition, particularly in intronic and intergenic regions. Further analysis indicated that loss of DAXX leads to decreased H3K27ac at myogenic loci and a shift in repressive histone marks, which led to impaired gene expression. Intriguingly, double knockout of Daxx and Hira resulted in distinct transcriptomic alterations, demonstrating that DAXX and HIRA have both overlapping and unique roles in H3.3 incorporation. Our work also suggests the presence of additional histone chaperone complexes in maintaining chromatin integrity in myoblasts. Our findings establish DAXX as a critical regulator of myogenic gene expression and muscle cell identity through a distinct mechanism from that of HIRA and highlighted an unanticipated plasticity in the deposition loci for DAXX and HIRA in myoblasts.

Project description:Histone chaperones prevent promiscuous histone interactions before chromatin assembly. They guarantee faithful deposition of canonical histones and functionally specialized histone variants into chromatin in a spatial- and temporally-restricted manner. Here, we identify the binding partners of the primate-specific and H3.3-related histone variant H3.Y using several quantitative mass spectrometry approaches, and biochemical and cell biological assays. We find the HIRA, but not the DAXX/ATRX, complex to specifically recognize H3.Y, explaining its presence in transcriptionally active euchromatic regions. Accordingly, H3.Y nucleosomes are enriched in the transcription-promoting FACT complex and depleted of repressive posttranslational histone modifications. H3.Y mutational gain-of-function analyses screens reveal an unexpected combinatorial amino acid sequence requirement for histone H3.3 interaction with DAXX but not HIRA, and for H3.3 recruitment to PML nuclear bodies. We demonstrate the importance and necessity of specific H3.3 core region and C-terminal amino acids in discriminating between distinct chaperone complexes. Further, ChIP-seq experiments reveal that in contrast to euchromatic HIRA-dependent deposition sites, human DAXX/ATRX-dependent regions of histone H3 variant incorporation are enriched in heterochromatic H3K9me3 and simple repeat sequences. These data demonstrate that H3.Y's unique amino acids allow a functional distinction between HIRA and DAXX binding and its consequent deposition into open chromatin.

Project description:The centromeric histone H3 variant CENP-A is overexpressed in many cancers. The mislocalization of CENP-A to noncentromeric regions contributes to chromosomal instability (CIN), a hallmark of cancer. However, pathways that promote or prevent CENP-A mislocalization remain poorly defined. Here, we performed a genome-wide RNAi screen for regulators of CENP-A localization which identified DNAJC9, a J-domain protein implicated in histone H3–H4 protein folding, as a factor restricting CENP-A mislocalization. Cells lacking DNAJC9 exhibit mislocalization of CENP-A throughout the genome, and CIN phenotypes. Global interactome analysis showed that DNAJC9 depletion promotes the interaction of CENP-A with the DNA-replication-associated histone chaperone MCM2. CENP-A mislocalization upon DNAJC9 depletion was dependent on MCM2, defining MCM2 as a driver of CENP-A deposition at ectopic sites when H3–H4 supply chains are disrupted. Cells depleted for histone H3.3, also exhibit CENP-A mislocalization. In summary, we have defined novel factors that prevent mislocalization of CENP-A, and demonstrated that the integrity of H3–H4 supply chains regulated by histone chaperones such as DNAJC9 restrict CENP-A mislocalization and CIN.

Project description:Restricting the localization of the centromeric histone H3 variant CENP-A to centromeres is essential to prevent chromosomal instability (CIN). Mislocalization of overexpressed CENP-A contributes to CIN in yeast, fly, and human cells. CENP-A is overexpressed in many cancers. Therefore, defining mechanisms that prevent CENP-A mislocalization will help us understand how CENP-A overexpression contributes to CIN in cancer. A genome-wide screen to characterize essential genes required for growth when CENP-A is overexpressed identified the replication initiation Dbf4-Dependent Kinase (DDK) complex. We show that DDK regulates ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis of Cse4 and prevents mislocalization of Cse4 independently of its role in DNA replication.

Project description:A multitude of histone chaperones is required to protect histones from their biosynthesis to DNA deposition. They cooperate through the formation of co-chaperone complexes, but the crosstalk between nucleosome assembly pathways is unclear. Using explorative interactomics approaches, we map the organization of the histone H3-H4 chaperones network and define the interplay between histone chaperones systems. We identify and validate a panel of novel histone (PTM) dependent complexes. We show DAXX acts separately from the rest of the network, recruiting heterochromatin factors and promoting lysine 9 tri-methylated new histone H3.3 prior to deposition onto DNA. With its functionality, DAXX provides a molecular mechanism for de novo heterochromatin assembly.

Project description:The centromeric histone H3 variant CENP-A is overexpressed in many cancers. Mislocalization of CENP-A to non-centromeric regions contributes to chromosomal instability (CIN), a hallmark of cancer. Despite these observations, pathways that promote and prevent CENP-A mislocalization remain poorly defined. Here, we performed a genome-wide RNAi screen to identify regulators of CENP-A localization. We identified DNAJC9, a J-domain protein as a lead candidate from the screen and showed that cells depleted for DNAJC9 exhibit mislocalization of CENP-A, enrichment of CENP-A in chromatin, and CIN phenotypes. Global interactome analysis showed an enhanced interaction of CENP-A with the replication-associated H3-H4 chaperone MCM2 in DNAJC9-depleted cells and co-depletion of MCM2 and DNAJC9 suppressed CENP-A mislocalization. Furthermore, we showed that cells ablated for the ability of DNAJC9 to promote the proper folding of H3–H4, exhibit CENP-A mislocalization. CUT&RUN Sequencing analysis of genome-wide CENP-A occupancy in DNAJC9-depleted cells identified 16,603 sites of non-centromeric localization, that broadly overlapped with open chromatin regions. Our comprehensive analysis has identified factors that prevent mislocalization of CENP-A and has defined DNAJC9 as an important safeguard that prevents CENP-A mislocalization and CIN.
