Actin-related proteins are ubiquitous components of chromatin remodelers and are conserved from yeast to man. We have examined the role of the budding yeast actin-related protein Arp6 in gene expression, both as a component of the SWR1 complex (SWR-C) and in its absence. We mapped Arp6 binding sites along four yeast chromosomes using chromatin immunoprecipitation from wild-type and swr1 deleted (swr1Δ) cells. We find that a majority of Arp6 binding sites coincide with binding sites of Swr1, the catalytic subunit of SWR-C, and with the histone H2A variant Htz1 (H2A.Z) deposited by SWR-C. However, Arp6 binding detected at centromeres, the promoters of ribosomal protein (RP) genes, and some telomeres is independent of Swr1 and Htz1 deposition. Given that RP genes and telomeres both show association with the nuclear periphery, we monitored the ability of Arp6 to mediate the localization of chromatin to nuclear pores. Arp6 binding is sufficient to shift a randomly positioned locus to nuclear periphery, even in a swr1Δ strain. Arp6 is also necessary for the pore association of its targeted RP promoters possibly through cell cycle-dependent factors. Loss of Arp6, but not Htz1, leads to an up-regulation of these RP genes. In contrast, the pore-association of GAL1 correlates with Htz1 deposition, and loss of Arp6 reduces both GAL1 activation and peripheral localization. We conclude that Arp6 functions both together with the nucleosome remodeler Swr1 and also without it, to mediate Htz1-dependent and Htz1-independent binding of chromatin domains to nuclear pores. This association is shown to have modulating effects on gene expression. Actin and the structurally similar actin-related proteins (ARPs) are major components of nucleosome remodeling complexes in the nucleus. Here we show that budding yeast Arp6 has functions independent of its catalytic chromatin remodeling partner, Swr1. Arp6 binds to multiple promoters and subtelomeric zones at which Swr1 does not bind, and this association increases in strains lacking an intact SWR-C remodeling complex. We show that Arp6 can mediate the association of the ribosomal protein gene promoters to which it binds, with the nuclear envelope. The loss of Arp6 led to an up-regulation of these ribosomal protein genes, yet had the opposite effect on the galactose-induced GAL1 promoter, where it binds together with Swr1 and the histone H2A variant H2A.Z. Indeed, loss of Arp6 and nuclear envelope binding delays galactose-induced activation of GAL1. The two opposing functions of Arp6 correlate with different pathways of anchoring mediated by Arp6: one requires that the intact SWR-C deposits H2A.Z, while in the second Arp6 may mediate promoter binding to nuclear pore baskets directly. In both cases, Arp6 is implicated in the spatial localization of chromatin within the interphase nucleus, which has functional consequences on expression. This identifies a novel function for actin-related proteins.
