英文摘要
Program Director/Principal Investigator (Last, First, Middle): Peterson, Craig, Lewis
The overall objective of our research is to determine how chromosome structure influences gene
transcription, DNA replication and repair, with special emphasis on identifying and characterizing the chromatin
remodeling machines that control chromosome dynamics. Notably, genetic experiments have revealed ATP-
dependent chromatin remodeling enzymes as essential regulators of virtually every chromosomal process, and
their dysregulation leads to a variety of diseases, including cancer. Our research efforts can be organized
into three inter-related areas: (1) Mechanistic studies of ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling enzymes;; (2)
Role of chromatin dynamics in genome stability pathways;; and (3) Assembly/function of chromatin higher order
structures. A major focus of our mechanistic studies is to continue to dissect the structure and
biochemical mechanisms of the INO80C and SWR1C enzymes. These remodeling enzymes catalyze
novel, ATP-dependent histone exchange events that control the deposition and distribution of the H2A.Z
histone variant within nucleosomes that flank promoters of genes transcribed by RNA polymerase II, as well as
nucleosomes that flank chromatin boundary elements, centromeres, and replication origins. Mammalian
homologs of SWR1C and INO80C, including the p400/Tip60 and hINO80 complexes, are key for proper stem
cell function, genome stability, development, and gene expression. During the past budget period, we identified
a novel regulatory interaction between SWR1C and the acetylation of lysine 56 of histone H3 (H3-K56Ac) that
regulates nucleosome dynamics, noncoding RNA expression, and assembly of large-scale, chromosome
interaction domains (CIDs) that are related to mammalian topologically-associated domains (TADs). These
mechanistic studies will include quantitative, fluorescence-based assays to define steps of the histone dimer
exchange reaction, as well as the reconstitution of these multi-subunit enzymes with recombinant subunits.
Studies from us and others over the past 10 years have demonstrated that chromatin dynamics play a large
role in stabilizing the replisome and in controlling various steps in DNA double strand break repair. Our recent
data suggests that changes in chromatin dynamics can also lead to dysregulation of transcription which
impacts genome stability pathways. Our research will address several key unanswered questions
focused on genome stability pathways: (1) Do Remodelers regulate the homology search step of
homologous recombination and do they function in concert with histone acetylases? (2) How does INO80C
stabilize the replisome and is this role due to the regulation of ncRNA expression? (3) How does INO80C
prevent ncRNA expression from intergenic regions? (4) Does the hyperacetylation of H3-K56Ac lead to
formation of R-loops that disrupt replisome function? (5) Does hypoacetylation of H3-K56Ac and the resulting
defect in nucleosome assembly also lead to aberrant transcription during S phase that leads to genome
instability? We plan to continue to exploit a combination of in vitro and in vivo approaches to address such
questions.
Mechanistic studies of Remodelers have primarily focused on single nucleosome substrates or simple
nucleosomal arrays. In vivo, these enzymes likely target nucleosomes within the context of condensed
chromatin fibers. Recently, we used a combination of sedimentation velocity analyses and AFM to dissect the
stoichiometry and solution dynamics of a simple form of yeast heterochromatin that contains the primary
structural component, Sir3. We plan to extend such studies with chromatin fibers reconstituted with a complete
complement of Sir proteins (Sir2/3/4). The overall goal will be to characterize the structure of yeast
heterochromatin fibers as well as understanding how these structures can be modulated by
Remodelers. A second type of higher order chromosome structure occurs throughout the genome. CIDs
contain strongly self-associating nucleosomes that span ~1-5 genes, separated by distinct boundary regions.
Little is known about what controls CID or TAD assembly or what functional roles they play. One possibility is
that domains of self-associating nucleosomes assemble spontaneously adjacent to nucleosome depleted
regions (NDRs), and mutants that disrupt CIDs either affect the efficiency of NDR formation or increase
transcription through CIDs. One of our goals is to use a genome-wide, nucleosome reconstitution system
to directly test whether formation of promoter-associated, nucleosome-depleted regions is sufficient
for CID assembly in vitro. These in vitro studies will also be complemented by genetic analyses of CID
assembly, where we will either eliminate key factors by gene deletion, or manipulate specific CID boundary
regions by DNA alterations. In the long term, understanding how CIDs are assembled will facilitate studies to
disrupt this process and investigate the functional consequences on both transcription and genome stability.
