Project description:Nucleosome remodeling factors regulate the occupancy and positioning of nucleosomes genome-wide through ATP-driven DNA translocation. While many nucleosomes are well- and consistently positioned, some nucleosomes and nucleosome-like structures are more sensitive to nuclease digestion or transitory in nature. To better understand the role of nucleosome remodeling factors in generating and clearing these alternative nucleosome structures, we depleted murine embryonic stem cells of the remodeler ATPases BRG1 and SNF2H then performed MNase-seq in murine embryonic stem cells. We performed MNase-seq under high- and low-MNase conditions to assess the effects of nucleosome remodeling factors on nuclease-sensitive or “fragile” nucleosome occupancy. In parallel, we gel-extracted MNase-digested fragments to enrich for another alternative nucleosome structure, the overlapping dinucleosome. Overlapping dinucleosomes are composed of two canonical nucleosomes, asymmetrically lacking one H2A:H2B dimer and wrapped by ~250 bp of DNA. In vitro studies of nucleosome remodeling have suggested that the collision of adjacent nucleosomes by nucleosome sliding can stimulate formation of overlapping dinucleosomes. Using these methods, we were able to identify fragile nucleosomes and overlapping dinucleosomes near transcription start sites and gene-distal DNaseI hypersensitive sites in mouse embryonic stem cells, among other loci. We find that BRG1 consistently stimulates occupancy of fragile nucleosomes but represses occupancy of overlapping dinucleosomes through its nucleosome remodeling function, while SNF2H expression slightly increases fragile nucleosome occupancy.

Project description:BackgroundNucleosome remodeling factors regulate the occupancy and positioning of nucleosomes genome-wide through ATP-driven DNA translocation. While many nucleosomes are consistently well-positioned, some nucleosomes and alternative nucleosome structures are more sensitive to nuclease digestion or are transitory. Fragile nucleosomes are nucleosome structures that are sensitive to nuclease digestion and may be composed of either six or eight histone proteins, making these either hexasomes or octasomes. Overlapping dinucleosomes are composed of two merged nucleosomes, lacking one H2A:H2B dimer, creating a 14-mer wrapped by ~ 250 bp of DNA. In vitro studies of nucleosome remodeling suggest that the collision of adjacent nucleosomes by sliding stimulates formation of overlapping dinucleosomes.ResultsTo better understand how nucleosome remodeling factors regulate alternative nucleosome structures, we depleted murine embryonic stem cells of the transcripts encoding remodeler ATPases BRG1 or SNF2H, then performed MNase-seq. We used high- and low-MNase digestion to assess the effects of nucleosome remodeling factors on nuclease-sensitive or "fragile" nucleosome occupancy. In parallel we gel-extracted MNase-digested fragments to enrich for overlapping dinucleosomes. We recapitulate prior identification of fragile nucleosomes and overlapping dinucleosomes near transcription start sites, and identify enrichment of these features around gene-distal DNaseI hypersensitive sites, CTCF binding sites, and pluripotency factor binding sites. We find that BRG1 stimulates occupancy of fragile nucleosomes but restricts occupancy of overlapping dinucleosomes.ConclusionsOverlapping dinucleosomes and fragile nucleosomes are prevalent within the ES cell genome, occurring at hotspots of gene regulation beyond their characterized existence at promoters. Although neither structure is fully dependent on either nucleosome remodeling factor, both fragile nucleosomes and overlapping dinucleosomes are affected by knockdown of BRG1, suggesting a role for the complex in creating or removing these structures.

Project description:ISWI-family nucleosome remodeling enzymes need the histone H4 N-terminal tail to mobilize nucleosomes. Here we mapped the H4-tail binding pocket of ISWI. Surprisingly the binding site was adjacent to but not overlapping with the docking site of an auto-regulatory motif, AutoN, in the N-terminal region (NTR) of ISWI, indicating that AutoN does not act as a simple pseudosubstrate as suggested previously. Rather, AutoN cooperated with a hitherto uncharacterized motif, termed AcidicN, to confer H4-tail sensitivity and discriminate between DNA and nucleosomes. A third motif in the NTR, ppHSA, was functionally required in vivo and provided structural stability by clamping the NTR to Lobe 2 of the ATPase domain. This configuration is reminiscent of Chd1 even though Chd1 contains an unrelated NTR. Our results shed light on the intricate structural and functional regulation of ISWI by the NTR and uncover surprising parallels with Chd1.

Project description:An overlapping dinucleosome (OLDN) is a structure composed of one hexasome and one octasome and appears to be formed through nucleosome collision promoted by nucleosome remodeling factor(s). In this study, the solution structure of the OLDN was investigated through the integration of small-angle x-ray and neutron scattering (SAXS and SANS, respectively), computer modeling, and molecular dynamics simulations. Starting from the crystal structure, we generated a conformational ensemble based on normal mode analysis and searched for the conformations that reproduced the SAXS and SANS scattering curves well. We found that inclusion of histone tails, which are not observed in the crystal structure, greatly improved model quality. The obtained structural models suggest that OLDNs adopt a variety of conformations stabilized by histone tails situated at the interface between the hexasome and octasome, simultaneously binding to both the hexasomal and octasomal DNA. In addition, our models define a possible direction for the conformational changes or dynamics, which may provide important information that furthers our understanding of the role of chromatin dynamics in gene regulation.

Project description:The chromatin remodeler ISWI is capable of repositioning clusters of nucleosomes to create well-ordered arrays or moving single nucleosomes from the center of DNA fragments toward the ends without disrupting their integrity. Using standard electrophoresis assays, we have monitored the ISWI-catalyzed repositioning of different nucleosome samples each containing a different length of DNA symmetrically flanking the initially centrally positioned histone octamer. We find that ISWI moves the histone octamer between distinct and thermodynamically stable positions on the DNA according to a random walk mechanism. Through the application of a spectrophotometric assay for nucleosome repositioning, we further characterized the repositioning activity of ISWI using short nucleosome substrates and were able to determine the macroscopic rate of nucleosome repositioning by ISWI. Additionally, quantitative analysis of repositioning experiments performed at various ISWI concentrations revealed that a monomeric ISWI is sufficient to obtain the observed repositioning activity as the presence of a second ISWI bound had no effect on the rate of nucleosome repositioning. We also found that ATP hydrolysis is poorly coupled to nucleosome repositioning, suggesting that DNA translocation by ISWI is not energetically rate-limiting for the repositioning reaction. This is the first calculation of a microscopic ATPase coupling efficiency for nucleosome repositioning and also further supports our conclusion that a second bound ISWI does not contribute to the repositioning reaction.

Project description:Chromatin remodeling is a general mechanism involved in DNA-dependent processes, including gene expression regulation. ISWI ATPase is the catalytic subunit in diverse chromatin remodeling complexes that changing histone–DNA interactions and therefore play a pivotal role in different nuclear processes. Here, the ISWI remodeler was fused to GFP (NH and CO fusions) and its partners were determined by affinity purification-mass spectrometry (MS) assay. This approach identified known ISWI partners (NLP, RCCP and FYRP), previously characterized in T. brucei, and new components of TcISWI complex (DRBD2, DHH1 and proteins containing SMC domains).
