Project description:In mammals, primordial germ cells (PGCs) enter meiosis and differentiate to primary oocytes in embryonic ovaries. Previously, we demonstrated that SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex is required for induction of the meiotic prophase genes and meiotic initiation in female germline, using conditional knockout (CKO) mice lacking the Smarcb1 (also known as Snf5) gene, which encodes a core subunit of the SWI/SNF complex. Here, we show that the meiotic prophase genes expressed at lower levels in the Snf5 CKO females can be classified into two groups, based on the promoter accessibility. The promoters of 74% of these genes showed lower accessibility in the mutant mice whereas those of remaining genes were opened equivalently in control and the mutant mice. The former genes include the Meiosin that encodes the transcription regulator essential for activation of the meiotic prophase genes. Furthermore, the promoters of the former and the latter genes were largely modified with H3K27me3/bivalent histone marks and H3K4me3, respectively. Collectively, we provide the mechanistic model by which SWI/SNF complex remodels the meiotic prophase genes repressed by polycomb repressive complex (PRC), including the Meiosin, and then MEIOSIN together with STRA8 activates the meiotic prophase genes in female germline.

Project description:A systems understanding of nuclear organization and events is critical for determining how cells divide, differentiate and respond to stimuli and for identifying the causes of diseases. Chromatin remodeling complexes such as SWI/SNF have been implicated in a wide variety of cellular processes including gene expression, nuclear organization, centromere function and chromosomal stability, and mutations in SWI/SNF components have been linked to several types of cancer. To better understand the biological processes in which chromatin remodeling proteins participate we globally mapped binding regions for several components of the SWI/SNF complex throughout the human genome using ChIP-Seq. SWI/SNF components were found to lie near regulatory elements integral to transcription (e.g. 5M-bM-^@M-^Y ends, RNA Polymerases II and III and enhancers) as well as regions critical for chromosome organization (e.g. CTCF, lamins and DNA replication origins). To further elucidate the association of SWI/SNF subunits with each other as well as with other nuclear proteins we also analyzed SWI/SNF immunoprecipitated complexes by mass spectrometry. Individual SWI/SNF factors are associated with their own family members as well as with cellular constituents such as nuclear matrix proteins, key transcription factors and centromere components implying a ubiquitous role in gene regulation and nuclear function. We find an overrepresentation of both SWI/SNF-associated regions and proteins in cell cycle and chromosome organization. Taken together the results from our ChIP and immunoprecipitation experiments suggest that SWI/SNF facilitates gene regulation and genome function more broadly and through a greater diversity of interactions than previously appreciated.

Project description:Tissue-specific transcription factors initiate differentiation toward a specialized cell type by inducing transcription-permissive chromatin modifications at target gene promoters, through the recruitment of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex (1, 2). The molecular mechanism that regulates the chromatin re-distribution of SWI/SNF in response to differentiation signals is currently unknown. Here we show that the muscle determination factor MyoD and the SWI/SNF structural sub-unit, BAF60c (SMARCD3), form a complex on the regulatory elements of MyoD-target genes in undifferentiated myoblasts, prior to the activation of gene expression. MyoD-BAF60c complex is devoid of the ATP-dependent enzymatic sub-units Brg1 and Brm, is required for stable MyoD binding to Ebox sequences, and marks the chromatin for signal-dependent recruitment of the SWI/SNF core complex to muscle loci. BAF60c phosphorylation on a conserved threonine by differentiation-activated p38 signalling promotes the incorporation of MyoD-BAF60c into a Brg1-based SWI/SNF complex, which is competent to remodel the chromatin and activates transcription of MyoD-target genes. Our data support an unprecedented two-step model, by which pre-assembled BAF60c-MyoD complex directs the SWI/SNF complex chromatin re-distribution to muscle loci in response to differentiation cues.

Project description:The SWI/SNF (or BAF) complex is an essential chromatin remodeler that regulates DNA accessibility at developmental genes and enhancers. SWI/SNF subunits are among the most frequently mutated genes in cancer and neurodevelopmental disorders. These mutations are often heterozygous loss-of-function alleles, indicating a dosage-sensitive role for SWI/SNF subunits in chromatin regulation. However, the molecular mechanisms that regulate SWI/SNF subunit dosage to ensure proper complex assembly remain largely unexplored. We performed a genome-wide CRISPR KO screen, using epigenome editing in mouse embryonic stem cells, and identified Mlf2 and Rbm15 as regulators of SWI/SNF complex activity. First, we show that MLF2, a poorly characterized chaperone protein, regulates a subset of SWI/SNF target genes by promoting its chromatin remodeling activity. Rapid degradation of MLF2 reduces chromatin accessibility at sites that depend on high levels of SWI/SNF binding to maintain open chromatin. Next, we find that RBM15, part of the m6A RNA methylation writer complex, controls m6A modifications on specific SWI/SNF mRNAs to regulate protein levels of these subunits. Misregulation of m6A methylation causes overexpression of core SWI/SNF subunits leading to the assembly of incomplete complexes lacking the catalytic ATPase/ARP subunits. These data indicate that targeting modulators of SWI/SNF complex assembly may offer a potent therapeutic strategy for diseases associated with impaired chromatin remodeling.

Project description:Cellular differentiation is instructed by development regulators in coordination with chromatin remodeling complexes. Much information about their coordination comes from studies in the model ascomycetous yeasts. It is not clear, however, of the kind of information that can be extrapolated to species of other phyla in Kingdom Fungi. In the basidiomycete Cryptococcus neoformans, the transcription factor Znf2 controls yeast-to-hypha differentiation. Through a forward genetic screen, we identified the basidiomycete-specific factor Brf1 and discovered that it works together with Snf5 in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex in concert with existent Znf2 to execute cellular differentiation. We demonstrated that SWI/SNF assists Znf2 opening up the promoter regions of hyphal specific genes, including the ZNF2 gene itself. In addition, this complex supports Znf2 to fully associate with its target regions. Importantly, our findings revealed key differences in composition and biological function of the SWI/SNF complex in the two major phyla of Kingdom Fungi.

Project description:TH17 cells play a critical role in mucosal immunity and also in multiple autoimmune diseases. The differentiation of TH17 cells is dictated by a master transcription factor, RORγt; however, the mechanism by which RORγt controls target genes is poorly understood. Here we identify the Swi/Snf chromatin remodeling complex as an essential regulator of TH17 cell differentiation. Loss of the expression of SRG3/mBAF155, a core subunit of the Swi/Snf complex, results in a specific downregulation of RORγt target genes such as IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-23R. Importantly, the comparative transcriptional analysis reveals a high similarity between RORγt and the Swi/Snf complex in the control of TH17-related gene expression. Mechanistically, the Swi/Snf complex partners with RORγt and coordinates a variety of RORγt–mediated epigenetic modifications, including both permissive and repressive ones. These results provide a basis for the understanding of how a master transcription factor RORγt cooperates with the Swi/Snf complex to govern the Th17 cell differentiation.
