  • Chd1 chromatin remodelers maintain nucleosome organization and repress cryptic transcription. 23032292

    Chromatin organization is essential for defining transcription units and maintaining genomic integrity in eukaryotes. In this study, we found that deletion of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Chd1 chromatin remodelers, hrp1 and hrp3, causes strong, genome-wide accumulation of antisense transcripts. Nucleosome mapping revealed a specific role for Chd1 remodelers in the positioning of nucleosomes in gene coding regions. Other mutations associated with enhanced cryptic transcription activity, such as set2Δ, alp13Δ and FACT complex subunit pob3Δ, did not, or only mildly, affect nucleosome positioning. These data indicate several mechanisms in the repression of cryptic promoter activity in eukaryotic cells.

  • An RNF168 fragment defective for focal accumulation at DNA damage is proficient for inhibition of homologous recombination in BRCA1 deficient cells. 24829461

    The E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF168 is a DNA damage response (DDR) factor that promotes monoubiquitination of H2A/H2AX at K13/15, facilitates recruitment of other DDR factors (e.g. 53BP1) to DNA damage, and inhibits homologous recombination (HR) in cells deficient in the tumor suppressor BRCA1. We have examined the domains of RNF168 important for these DDR events, including chromosomal HR that is induced by several nucleases (I-SceI, CAS9-WT and CAS9-D10A), since the inducing nuclease affects the relative frequency of distinct repair outcomes. We found that an N-terminal fragment of RNF168 (1-220/N221*) efficiently inhibits HR induced by each of these nucleases in BRCA1 depleted cells, and promotes recruitment of 53BP1 to DNA damage and H2AX monoubiquitination at K13/15. Each of these DDR events requires a charged residue in RNF168 (R57). Notably, RNF168-N221* fails to self-accumulate into ionizing radiation induced foci (IRIF). Furthermore, expression of RNF168 WT and N221* can significantly bypass the role of another E3 ubiquitin ligase, RNF8, for inhibition of HR in BRCA1 depleted cells, and for promotion of 53BP1 IRIF. We suggest that the ability for RNF168 to promote H2A/H2AX monoubiquitination and 53BP1 IRIF, but not RNF168 self-accumulation into IRIF, is important for inhibition of HR in BRCA1 deficient cells.

  • The E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM21 negatively regulates the innate immune response to intracellular double-stranded DNA. 23222971

    DDX41 is a sensor of intracellular double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs) that triggers a type I interferon response via the signaling adaptor STING. We identified the E3 ligase TRIM21 as a DDX41-interacting protein and found that knockdown of or deficiency in TRIM21 resulted in enhanced type I interferon responses to intracellular dsDNA and DNA viruses. Overexpression of TRIM21 resulted in more degradation of DDX41 and less production of interferon-β (IFN-β) in response to intracellular dsDNA. The SPRY-PRY domain of TRIM21 interacted with the DEADc domain of DDX41. Lys9 and Lys115 of DDX41 were the targets of TRIM21-mediated ubiquitination. TRIM21 is therefore an interferon-inducible E3 ligase that induces the Lys48 (K48)-linked ubiquitination and degradation of DDX41 and negatively regulates the innate immune response to intracellular dsDNA.

  • Assembly of Drosophila centromeric chromatin proteins during mitosis. 21589899

    Semi-conservative segregation of nucleosomes to sister chromatids during DNA replication creates gaps that must be filled by new nucleosome assembly. We analyzed the cell-cycle timing of centromeric chromatin assembly in Drosophila, which contains the H3 variant CID (CENP-A in humans), as well as CENP-C and CAL1, which are required for CID localization. Pulse-chase experiments show that CID and CENP-C levels decrease by 50% at each cell division, as predicted for semi-conservative segregation and inheritance, whereas CAL1 displays higher turnover. Quench-chase-pulse experiments demonstrate that there is a significant lag between replication and replenishment of centromeric chromatin. Surprisingly, new CID is recruited to centromeres in metaphase, by a mechanism that does not require an intact mitotic spindle, but does require proteasome activity. Interestingly, new CAL1 is recruited to centromeres before CID in prophase. Furthermore, CAL1, but not CENP-C, is found in complex with pre-nucleosomal CID. Finally, CENP-C displays yet a different pattern of incorporation, during both interphase and mitosis. The unusual timing of CID recruitment and unique dynamics of CAL1 identify a distinct centromere assembly pathway in Drosophila and suggest that CAL1 is a key regulator of centromere propagation.

  • Frequent activation of the lck gene by promoter insertion and aberrant splicing in murine leukemia virus-induced rat lymphomas. 8423992

    We have analysed DNA and RNA from 36 T-cell lymphomas induced in Fischer rats by Moloney murine leukemia virus for alterations affecting the structure or expression of the lck gene. At least five primary tumors (14%) have a proviral insertion upstream of lck. In at least four of the tumors, proviral insertion increases lck mRNA levels an average of eight-fold. Overexpression of lck results from transcription initiating in the viral promoter and extending into lck sequences. Three different structures of hybrid transcript were detected. In all three, the hybrid RNAs are spliced to a normal lck splice acceptor in the first exon of lck, resulting in removal of three out of frame ATG codons which would be expected to increase the translation efficiency of the hybrid message. In one tumor, the viral splice donor is used, in one tumor, proviral insertion generates a splice donor sequence one base pair downstream of the long terminal repeat boundary, and in two tumors, a cryptic splice donor in the upstream lck sequences is used. The significance of these unusual splicing patterns and of the higher frequency of proviral insertions adjacent to lck in rats relative to mice is discussed.

  • High-resolution genome-wide in vivo footprinting of diverse transcription factors in human cells. 21106903

    Regulation of gene transcription in diverse cell types is determined largely by varied sets of cis-elements where transcription factors bind. Here we demonstrate that data from a single high-throughput DNase I hypersensitivity assay can delineate hundreds of thousands of base-pair resolution in vivo footprints in human cells that precisely mark individual transcription factor-DNA interactions. These annotations provide a unique resource for the investigation of cis-regulatory elements. We find that footprints for specific transcription factors correlate with ChIP-seq enrichment and can accurately identify functional versus nonfunctional transcription factor motifs. We also find that footprints reveal a unique evolutionary conservation pattern that differentiates functional footprinted bases from surrounding DNA. Finally, detailed analysis of CTCF footprints suggests multiple modes of binding and a novel DNA binding motif upstream of the primary binding site.

  • TopBP1 deficiency causes an early embryonic lethality and induces cellular senescence in primary cells. 21149450

    TopBP1 plays important roles in chromosome replication, DNA damage response, and other cellular regulatory functions in vertebrates. Although the roles of TopBP1 have been studied mostly in cancer cell lines, its physiological function remains unclear in mice and untransformed cells. We generated conditional knock-out mice in which exons 5 and 6 of the TopBP1 gene are flanked by loxP sequences. Although TopBP1-deficient embryos developed to the blastocyst stage, no homozygous mutant embryos were recovered at E8.5 or beyond, and completely resorbed embryos were frequent at E7.5, indicating that mutant embryos tend to die at the peri-implantation stage. This finding indicated that TopBP1 is essential for cell proliferation during early embryogenesis. Ablation of TopBP1 in TopBP1(flox/flox) mouse embryonic fibroblasts and 3T3 cells using Cre recombinase-expressing retrovirus arrests cell cycle progression at the G(1), S, and G(2)/M phases. The TopBP1-ablated mouse cells exhibit phosphorylation of H2AX and Chk2, indicating that the cells contain DNA breaks. The TopBP1-ablated mouse cells enter cellular senescence. Although RNA interference-mediated knockdown of TopBP1 induced cellular senescence in human primary cells, it induced apoptosis in cancer cells. Therefore, TopBP1 deficiency in untransformed mouse and human primary cells induces cellular senescence rather than apoptosis. These results indicate that TopBP1 is essential for cell proliferation and maintenance of chromosomal integrity.

  • DNA damage promotes histone deacetylase 4 nuclear localization and repression of G2/M promoters, via p53 C-terminal lysines. 16293626

    Repression of G(2)/M promoters after DNA damage is an active mechanism that requires the p53 tumor suppressor. We have recently found that histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) is recruited on NF-Y-dependent repressed promoters. In this report, we describe the relationship between p53 and HDAC4 recruitment following DNA damage using immunofluorescence, chromatin immunoprecipitation, and transfection experiments. HDAC4 shuttles from the cytoplasm into the nucleus, following DNA damage, independently of the activation of p53 and becomes associated with promoters through a p53-dependent mechanism. The C-terminal lysines of p53, which are acetylated and methylated, are required for HDAC4 recruitment and transcriptional repression. Trichostatin treatment, but not HDAC4 functional inactivation, relieves the adriamycin-mediated repression of G(2)/M promoters. Our results indicate that HDAC4 is a component of the DNA damage response and that post-translational modifications of p53 are important for repression of G(2)/M genes.

  • Ultraviolet B inhibition of DNMT1 activity via AhR activation dependent SIRT1 suppression in CD4+ T cells from systemic lupus erythematosus patients. 28336124

    Previous studies have reported that ultraviolet B (UVB) inhibits DNA methyltransferase1 (DNMT1) activity in CD4+ T cells from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. Silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) is a type of Class III histone deacetylases (HDACs), and has been reported to play roles in the pathogenesis of different autoimmune diseases and can modulate DNMT1 activity. Moreover, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) has been reported to link UVB with SLE. However, the exact mechanisms by which DNMT1 activity is inhibited by UVB in lupus CD4+ T cells remain largely unknown.To elucidate the exact mechanisms by which DNMT1 activity is inhibited by UVB in lupus CD4+ T cells.Twenty-two newly diagnosed active SLE patients and 30 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. CD4+ T cells were isolated, cultured and treated. DNMT1 activity assay, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), Western blotting, RNA interference using small interfering RNA and Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay were employed.DNMT1 activity was inhibited in si-SIRT1-transfected CD4+ T cells, and increased by the established SIRT1 activator, SRT1720. Moreover, the mRNA and protein expression of SIRT1 were suppressed by UVB exposure in lupus CD4+ T cells. UVB-inhibited DNMT1 activity was reversed by SRT1720 in si-control-transfected lupus CD4+ T cells, but not in si-SIRT1-transfected lupus CD4 + T cells. Furthermore, AhR activation by VAF347 reduced the mRNA and protein expression of SIRT1. ChIP using an antibody against AhR in normal CD4+ T cells revealed a 16-fold stronger signal at the site about 1.6kb upstream from the translation start site of the SIRT1 promoter. Finally, UVB could activate AhR and inhibit the mRNA and protein expression of SIRT1. AhR knockdown abrogated the inhibition of UVB-mediated SIRT1 mRNA and protein expression and DNMT1 activity in lupus CD4+ T cells.UVB suppressed SIRT1 expression via activating AhR, and subsequently inhibited DNMT1 activity in CD4+ T cells from SLE patients.

  • mRNA Processing Factor CstF-50 and Ubiquitin Escort Factor p97 Are BRCA1/BARD1 Cofactors Involved in Chromatin Remodeling during the DNA Damage Response. 29180510

    The cellular response to DNA damage is an intricate mechanism that involves the interplay among several pathways. In this study, we provide evidence of the roles of the polyadenylation factor cleavage stimulation factor 50 (CstF-50) and the ubiquitin (Ub) escort factor p97 as cofactors of BRCA1/BARD1 E3 Ub ligase, facilitating chromatin remodeling during the DNA damage response (DDR). CstF-50 and p97 formed complexes with BRCA1/BARD1, Ub, and some BRCA1/BARD1 substrates, such as RNA polymerase (RNAP) II and histones. Furthermore, CstF-50 and p97 had an additive effect on the activation of the ubiquitination of these BRCA1/BARD1 substrates during DDR. Importantly, as a result of these functional interactions, BRCA1/BARD1/CstF-50/p97 had a specific effect on the chromatin structure of genes that were differentially expressed. This study provides new insights into the roles of RNA processing, BRCA1/BARD1, the Ub pathway, and chromatin structure during DDR.
