[PMID: 38684796 DOI: 10.1038/s41380-024-02574-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation regulates gene expression/protein by influencing numerous aspects of mRNA metabolism and contributes to neuropsychiatric diseases. Here, we integrated multi-omics data and genome-wide association study summary data of schizophrenia (SCZ), bipolar disorder (BP), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), major depressive disorder (MDD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), and Parkinson's disease (PD) to reveal the role of m6A in neuropsychiatric disorders by using transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) tool and Summary-data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR). Our investigation identified 86 m6A sites associated with seven neuropsychiatric diseases and then revealed 7881 associations between m6A sites and gene expressions. Based on these results, we discovered 916 significant m6A-gene associations involving 82 disease-related m6A sites and 606 genes. Further integrating the 58 disease-related genes from TWAS and SMR analysis, we obtained 61, 8, 7, 3, and 2 associations linking m6A-disease, m6A-gene, and gene-disease for SCZ, BP, AD, MDD, and PD separately. Functional analysis showed the m6A mapped genes were enriched in "response to stimulus" pathway. In addition, we also analyzed the effect of gene expression on m6A and the post-transcription effect of m6A on protein. Our study provided new insights into the genetic component of m6A in neuropsychiatric disorders and unveiled potential pathogenic mechanisms where m6A exerts influences on disease through gene expression/protein regulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Progressive remodeling of cardiac gene expression underlies decline in cardiac function, eventually leading to heart failure. However, the major determinants of transcriptional network switching from normal to failed hearts remain to be determined. METHODS In this study, we integrated human samples, genetic mouse models, and genomic approaches, including bulk RNA sequencing, single-cell RNA sequencing, chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing, and assay for transposase-accessible chromatin with high-throughput sequencing, to identify the role of chromatin remodeling complex INO80 in heart homeostasis and dysfunction. RESULTS The INO80 chromatin remodeling complex was abundantly expressed in mature cardiomyocytes, and its expression further increased in mouse and human heart failure. Cardiomyocyte-specific overexpression of Ino80, its core catalytic subunit, induced heart failure within 4 days. Combining RNA sequencing, chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing, and assay for transposase-accessible chromatin with high-throughput sequencing, we revealed INO80 overexpression-dependent reshaping of the nucleosomal landscape that remodeled a core set of transcription factors, most notably the MEF2 (Myocyte Enhancer Factor 2) family, whose target genes were closely associated with cardiac function. Conditional cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of Ino80 in an established mouse model of heart failure demonstrated remarkable preservation of cardiac function. CONCLUSIONS In summary, our findings shed light on the INO80-dependent remodeling of the chromatin landscape and transcriptional networks as a major mechanism underlying cardiac dysfunction in heart failure, and suggest INO80 as a potential preventative or interventional target.

Abstract
DNA sequencing-based studies of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) have identified a wide range of genetic determinants. However, a comprehensive analysis of these data, in aggregate, has not to date been performed. Here, we find that genes encoding the mammalian SWI/SNF (mSWI/SNF or BAF) family of ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling protein complexes harbor the greatest number of de novo missense and protein-truncating variants among nuclear protein complexes. Non-truncating NDD-associated protein variants predominantly disrupt the cBAF subcomplex and cluster in four key structural regions associated with high disease severity, including mSWI/SNF-nucleosome interfaces, the ATPase-core ARID-armadillo repeat (ARM) module insertion site, the Arp module and DNA-binding domains. Although over 70% of the residues perturbed in NDDs overlap with those mutated in cancer, ~60% of amino acid changes are NDD-specific. These findings provide a foundation to functionally group variants and link complex aberrancies to phenotypic severity, serving as a resource for the chromatin, clinical genetics and neurodevelopment communities.

Abstract
Receptor-Interacting Serine/Threonine-Protein Kinase 1 (RIPK1) is a master regulator of TNFR1 signaling in controlling cell death and survival. While the scaffold of RIPK1 participates in the canonical NF-κB pathway, the activation of RIPK1 kinase promotes not only necroptosis and apoptosis, but also inflammation by mediating the transcriptional induction of inflammatory cytokines. The nuclear translocation of activated RIPK1 has been shown to interact BAF-complex to promote chromatin remodeling and transcription. This review will highlight the proinflammatory role of RIPK1 kinase with focus on human neurodegenerative diseases. We will discuss the possibility of targeting RIPK1 kinase for the treatment of inflammatory pathology in human diseases.

Abstract
ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes can reorganize and remodel chromatin and thereby act as important regulator in various cellular processes. Based on considerable studies over the past two decades, it has been confirmed that the abnormal function of chromatin remodeling plays a pivotal role in genome reprogramming for oncogenesis in cancer development and/or resistance to cancer therapy. Recently, exciting progress has been made in the identification of genetic alteration in the genes encoding the chromatin-remodeling complexes associated with tumorigenesis, as well as in our understanding of chromatin-remodeling mechanisms in cancer biology. Here, we present preclinical evidence explaining the signaling mechanisms involving the chromatin-remodeling misregulation-induced cancer cellular processes, including DNA damage signaling, metastasis, angiogenesis, immune signaling, etc. However, even though the cumulative evidence in this field provides promising emerging molecules for therapeutic explorations in cancer, more research is needed to assess the clinical roles of these genetic cancer targets.

Abstract
SMARCAL1 and BRG1, both classified as ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling proteins, play a role in double-strand break DNA damage response pathways. Mutations in SMARCAL1 cause Schimke Immuno-osseous Dysplasia (SIOD) while mutations in BRG1 are associated with Coffin-Siris Syndrome (CSS4). In HeLa cells, SMARCAL1 and BRG1 co-regulate the expression of ATM, ATR, and RNAi genes on doxorubicin-induced DNA damage. Both the proteins are found to be simultaneously present on the promoter of these genes. Based on these results we hypothesized that SMARCAL1 and BRG1 interact with each other forming a complex. In this paper, we validate our hypothesis and show that SMARCAL1 and BRG1 do indeed interact with each other both in the absence and presence of doxorubicin. The formation of these complexes is dependent on the ATPase activity of both SMARCAL1 and BRG1. Using deletion constructs, we show that the HARP domains of SMARCAL1 mediate interaction with BRG1 while multiple domains of BRG1 are probably important for binding to SMARCAL1. We also show that SIOD-associated mutants fail to form a complex with BRG1. Similarly, CSS4-associated mutants of BRG1 fail to interact with SMARCAL1, thus, possibly contributing to the failure of the DNA damage response pathway and pathophysiology associated with SIOD and CSS4.

Abstract
Structural and biochemical studies have identified a histone surface on each side of the nucleosome disk termed 'the nucleosome acidic patch' that acts as a regulatory hub for the function of numerous nuclear proteins, including ATP-dependent chromatin complexes (remodelers). Four major remodeler subfamilies, SWI/SNF, ISWI, CHD, and INO80, have distinct modes of interaction with one or both nucleosome acidic patches, contributing to their specific remodeling outcomes. Genome-wide sequencing analyses of various human cancers have uncovered high-frequency mutations in histone coding genes, including some that map to the acidic patch. How cancer-related acidic patch histone mutations affect nucleosome remodeling is mainly unknown. Recent advances in in vitro chromatin reconstitution have enabled access to physiologically relevant nucleosomes, including asymmetric nucleosomes that possess both wild-type and acidic patch mutant histone copies. Biochemical investigation of these substrates revealed unexpected remodeling outcomes with far-reaching implications for alteration of chromatin structure. This review summarizes recent findings of how different remodeler families interpret wild-type and mutant acidic patches for their remodeling functions and discusses models for remodeler-mediated changes in chromatin landscapes as a consequence of acidic patch mutations.

The Role of Epigenetic Modifications in Human Cancers and the Use of Natural Compounds as Epidrugs: Mechanistic Pathways and Pharmacodynamic Actions. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12030367.

Abstract
Cancer is a complex disease resulting from the genetic and epigenetic disruption of normal cells. The mechanistic understanding of the pathways involved in tumor transformation has implicated a priori predominance of epigenetic perturbations and a posteriori genetic instability. In this work, we aimed to explain the mechanistic involvement of epigenetic pathways in the cancer process, as well as the abilities of natural bioactive compounds isolated from medicinal plants (flavonoids, phenolic acids, stilbenes, and ketones) to specifically target the epigenome of tumor cells. The molecular events leading to transformation, angiogenesis, and dissemination are often complex, stochastic, and take turns. On the other hand, the decisive advances in genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics have allowed, in recent years, for the mechanistic decryption of the molecular pathways of the cancerization process. This could explain the possibility of specifically targeting this or that mechanism leading to cancerization. With the plasticity and flexibility of epigenetic modifications, some studies have started the pharmacological screening of natural substances against different epigenetic pathways (DNA methylation, histone acetylation, histone methylation, and chromatin remodeling) to restore the cellular memory lost during tumor transformation. These substances can inhibit DNMTs, modify chromatin remodeling, and adjust histone modifications in favor of pre-established cell identity by the differentiation program. Epidrugs are molecules that target the epigenome program and can therefore restore cell memory in cancerous diseases. Natural products isolated from medicinal plants such as flavonoids and phenolic acids have shown their ability to exhibit several actions on epigenetic modifiers, such as the inhibition of DNMT, HMT, and HAT. The mechanisms of these substances are specific and pleiotropic and can sometimes be stochastic, and their use as anticancer epidrugs is currently a remarkable avenue in the fight against human cancers.

Abstract
The INO80 chromatin remodeling complex plays an essential role in the regulation of gene transcription, which participate in a variety of important biological processes in cells including DNA repair and DNA replication. Difference from the yeast INO80 complex, metazoan INO80 complex have the specific subunit G, which is known as nuclear factor related to kappaB binding protein (NFRKB). Recently, NFRKB has been received much attention in many aspects, such as DNA repair, cell pluripotency, telomere protection, and protein activity regulation. To dig the new function of metazoan INO80 complex, a better understanding of the role of NFRKB is required. In this review, we provide an overview of the structure and function of NFRKB and discuss its potential role in cancer treatment and telomere regulation. Overall, this review provides an important reference for further research of the INO80 complex and NFRKB.

Abstract
Extensive amounts of data from next-generation sequencing and omics studies have led to the accumulation of information that provides insight into the evolutionary landscape of related proteins. Here, we present OrthoQuantum, a web server that allows for time-efficient analysis and visualization of phylogenetic profiles of any set of eukaryotic proteins. It is a simple-to-use tool capable of searching large input sets of proteins. Using data from open source databases of orthologous sequences in a wide range of taxonomic groups, it enables users to assess coupled evolutionary patterns and helps define lineage-specific innovations. The web interface allows to perform queries with gene names and UniProt identifiers in different phylogenetic clades and supplement presence with an additional BLAST search. The conservation patterns of proteins are coded as binary vectors, i.e., strings that encode the presence or absence of orthologous proteins in other genomes. These strings are used to calculate top-scoring correlation pairs needed for finding co-inherited proteins which are simultaneously present or simultaneously absent in specific lineages. Profiles are visualized in combination with phylogenetic trees in a JavaScript-based interface. The OrthoQuantum v1.0 web server is freely available at http://orthoq.bioinf.fbb.msu.ru along with documentation and tutorial.

Alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) is a homologous recombination-based telomere maintenance mechanism activated in 10-15% of human cancers. Although significant progress has been made, the key regulators of the ALT pathway and its role in cancer development remain elusive. Bioinformatics methods were used to predict novel telomere-associated proteins (TAPs) by analysis of large-scale ChIP-Seq data. Immunostaining and fluorescence in situ hybridization experiments were applied to detect the subcellular location of target genes and telomeres. Western blot and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to examine the expression of targeting genes. Overall survival (OS) analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between gene expression and survival time; immunohistochemistry was used to detect the distribution of target genes in liver cancer tissues. We found that nuclear factor related to kappaB binding protein (NFRKB), a metazoan-specific subunit of the INO80 complex, can associate with telomeres in human ALT cells. Loss of NFRKB induces dysfunction of telomeres and less PML bodies in U2OS cells. In addition, NFRKB is low/moderately expressed in cytoplasm of normal hepatocytes but heavily accumulating in the nucleus of liver cancer cells. Finally, the high expression of NFRKB is associated with short OS time and poor prognosis. NFRKB is a TAP and protects telomeres from DNA damage in ALT cells. It is highly expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells and predicts a poor prognosis. NFRKB may be a promising prognostic biomarker for the treatment of HCC in the future.

Abstract
Resistance against conventional chemotherapeutic agents is one of the main reasons for tumor relapse and poor clinical outcomes in cancer patients. Various mechanisms are associated with drug resistance, including drug efflux, cell cycle, DNA repair and apoptosis. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely used first-line anti-cancer drug that functions as a DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor. However, DOX resistance has emerged as a large hurdle in efficient tumor therapy. Furthermore, despite its wide clinical application, DOX is a double-edged sword: it can damage normal tissues and affect the quality of patients’ lives during and after treatment. It is essential to clarify the molecular basis of DOX resistance to support the development of novel therapeutic modalities with fewer and/or lower-impact side effects in cancer patients. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have critical roles in the drug resistance of various tumors. In this review, we summarize the state of knowledge on all the lncRNAs associated with DOX resistance. The majority are involved in promoting DOX resistance. This review paves the way to introducing an lncRNA panel marker for the prediction of the DOX response and clinical outcomes for cancer patients.

Abstract
The discovery of HAATIrDNA, a telomerase-negative survival mode in which canonical telomeres are replaced with ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeats that acquire chromosome end-protection capability, raised crucial questions as to how rDNA tracts 'jump' to eroding chromosome ends. Here, we show that HAATIrDNA formation is initiated and limited by a single translocation that juxtaposes rDNA from Chromosome (Chr) III onto subtelomeric elements (STE) on Chr I or II; this rare reaction requires RNAi and the Ino80 nucleosome remodeling complex (Ino80C), thus defining an unforeseen relationship between these two machineries. The unique STE-rDNA junction created by this initial translocation is efficiently copied to the remaining STE chromosome ends, independently of RNAi or Ino80C. Intriguingly, both RNAi and Ino80C machineries contain a component that plays dual roles in HAATI subtype choice. Dcr1 of the RNAi pathway and Iec1 of Ino80C both promote HAATIrDNA formation as part of their respective canonical machineries, but both also inhibit formation of the exceedingly rare HAATISTE (where STE sequences mobilize throughout the genome and assume chromosome end protection capacity) in non-canonical, pathway-independent manners. This work provides a glimpse into a previously unrecognized crosstalk between RNAi and Ino80C in controlling unusual translocation reactions that establish telomere-free linear chromosome ends.

Abstract
The diverse number of neurons in the cerebral cortex are generated during development by neural stem cells lining the ventricle, and they continue maturing postnatally. Dynamic chromatin regulation in these neural stem cells is a fundamental determinant of the emerging property of the functional neural network, and the chromatin remodellers are critical determinants of this process. Chromatin remodellers participate in several steps of this process from proliferation, differentiation, migration leading to complex network formation which forms the basis of higher-order functions of cognition and behaviour. Here we review the role of these ATP-dependent chromatin remodellers in cortical development in health and disease and highlight several key mouse mutants of the subunits of the complexes which have revealed how the remodelling mechanisms control the cortical stem cell chromatin landscape for expression of stage-specific transcripts. Consistent with their role in cortical development, several putative risk variants in the subunits of the remodelling complexes have been identified as the underlying causes of several neurodevelopmental disorders. A basic understanding of the detailed molecular mechanism of their action is key to understating how mutations in the same networks lead to disease pathologies and perhaps pave the way for therapeutic development for these complex multifactorial disorders.

Abstract
Depth separation is a proposed driver of speciation in marine fishes, with marine rockfish (genus Sebastes) providing a potentially informative study system. Sebastes rockfishes are commercially and ecologically important. This genus encompasses more than one hundred species and the ecological and morphological variance between these species provides opportunity for identifying speciation-driving adaptations, particularly along a depth gradient. A reduced-representation sequencing method (ddRADseq) was used to compare 95 individuals encompassing six Sebastes species. In this study, we sought to identify regions of divergence between species that were indicative of divergent adaptation and reproductive barriers leading to speciation. A pairwise comparison of S. chrysomelas (black-and-yellow rockfish) and S. carnatus (gopher rockfish) FST values revealed three major regions of elevated genomic divergence, two of which were also present in the S. miniatus (vermilion rockfish) and S. crocotulus (sunset rockfish) comparison. These corresponded with regions of both elevated DXY values and reduced nucleotide diversity in two cases, suggesting a speciation-with-gene-flow evolutionary model followed by post-speciation selective sweeps within each species. Limited whole-genome resequencing was also performed to identify mutations with predicted effects between S. chrysomelas and S. carnatus. Within these islands, we identified important SNPs in genes involved in immune function and vision. This supports their potential role in speciation, as these are adaptive vectors noted in other organisms. Additionally, changes to genes involved in pigment expression and mate recognition shed light on how S. chrysomelas and S. carnatus may have become reproductively isolated.

Abstract
Reduced activity of the insulin/IGF signalling network increases health during ageing in multiple species. Diverse and tissue-specific mechanisms drive the health improvement. Here, we performed tissue-specific transcriptional and proteomic profiling of long-lived Drosophila dilp2-3,5 mutants, and identified tissue-specific regulation of >3600 transcripts and >3700 proteins. Most expression changes were regulated post-transcriptionally in the fat body, and only in mutants infected with the endosymbiotic bacteria, Wolbachia pipientis, which increases their lifespan. Bioinformatic analysis identified reduced co-translational ER targeting of secreted and membrane-associated proteins and increased DNA damage/repair response proteins. Accordingly, age-related DNA damage and genome instability were lower in fat body of the mutant, and overexpression of a minichromosome maintenance protein subunit extended lifespan. Proteins involved in carbohydrate metabolism showed altered expression in the mutant intestine, and gut-specific overexpression of a lysosomal mannosidase increased autophagy, gut homeostasis, and lifespan. These processes are candidates for combatting ageing-related decline in other organisms.

Abstract
Simple Summary It is well known that actin forms a cytoplasmic network of microfilaments, the part of the cytoskeleton, in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. The presence of nuclear actin was elusive for a very long time. Now, there is a very strong evidence that actin plays many important roles in the nucleus. Here, we discuss the recently discovered functions of the nuclear actin pool. Actin does not have nuclear localization signal (NLS), so its import to the nucleus is facilitated by the NLS-containing proteins. Nuclear actin plays a role in the maintenance of the nuclear structure and the nuclear envelope breakdown. It is also involved in chromatin remodeling, and chromatin and nucleosome movement necessary for DNA recombination, repair, and the initiation of transcription. It also binds RNA polymerases, promoting transcription. Because of the multifaceted role of nuclear actin, the future challenge will be to further define its functions in various cellular processes and diseases. Abstract Actin is one of the most abundant proteins in eukaryotic cells. There are different pools of nuclear actin often undetectable by conventional staining and commercial antibodies used to identify cytoplasmic actin. With the development of more sophisticated imaging and analytical techniques, it became clear that nuclear actin plays a crucial role in shaping the chromatin, genomic, and epigenetic landscape, transcriptional regulation, and DNA repair. This multifaceted role of nuclear actin is not only important for the function of the individual cell but also for the establishment of cell fate, and tissue and organ differentiation during development. Moreover, the changes in the nuclear, chromatin, and genomic architecture are preamble to various diseases. Here, we discuss some of the newly described functions of nuclear actin.

Abstract
The INO80 chromatin remodeling complex has roles in many essential cellular processes, including DNA replication. However, the mechanisms that regulate INO80 in these processes remain largely unknown. We previously reported that the stability of Ino80, the catalytic ATPase subunit of INO80, is regulated by the ubiquitin proteasome system and that BRCA1-associated protein-1 (BAP1), a nuclear deubiquitinase with tumor suppressor activity, stabilizes Ino80 via deubiquitination and promotes replication fork progression. However, the E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets Ino80 for proteasomal degradation was unknown. Here, we identified the C-terminus of Hsp70-interacting protein (CHIP), the E3 ubiquitin ligase that functions in cooperation with Hsp70, as an Ino80-interacting protein. CHIP polyubiquitinates Ino80 in a manner dependent on Hsp70. Contrary to our expectation that CHIP degrades Ino80, CHIP instead stabilizes Ino80 by extending its halflife. The data suggest that CHIP stabilizes Ino80 by inhibiting degradative ubiquitination. We also show that CHIP works together with BAP1 to enhance the stabilization of Ino80, leading to its chromatin binding. Interestingly, both depletion and overexpression of CHIP compromise replication fork progression with little effect on fork stalling, as similarly observed for BAP1 and Ino80, indicating that an optimal cellular level of Ino80 is important for replication fork speed but not for replication stress suppression. This work therefore idenitifes CHIP as an E3 ubiquitin ligase that stabilizes Ino80 via nondegradative ubiquitination and suggests that CHIP and BAP1 act in concert to regulate Ino80 ubiquitination to fine-tune its stability for efficient DNA replication.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells package their genomes around histone octamers. In response to DNA damage, checkpoint activation in yeast induces core histone degradation resulting in 20%-40% reduction in nucleosome occupancy. To gain insight into this process, we developed a new approach to analyze the chromatin-associated proteome comprehensively before and after damage. This revealed extensive changes in protein composition after Zeocin-induced damage. First, core histones and the H1 homolog Hho1 were partially lost from chromatin along with replication, transcription, and chromatin remodeling machineries, while ubiquitin ligases and the proteasome were recruited. We found that the checkpoint- and INO80C-dependent recruitment of five ubiquitin-conjugating factors (Rad6, Bre1, Pep5, Ufd4, and Rsp5) contributes to core and linker histone depletion, reducing chromatin compaction and enhancing DNA locus mobility. Importantly, loss of Rad6/Bre1, Ufd4/TRIP12, and Pep5/VPS11 compromise DNA strand invasion kinetics during homology-driven repair. Thus we provide a comprehensive overview of a functionally relevant genome-wide chromatin response to DNA damage.

Abstract
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) remains as one of the most aggressive human carcinomas with poor survival rates in patients with the cancer despite therapeutic interventions. Novel targeted and personalized therapies could solve the puzzle of poor survival rates of patients with ATC. In this review, we discuss the role of non-coding RNAs in the regulation of gene expression in ATC as well as how the changes in their expression could potentially reshape the characteristics of ATCs. A broad range of miRNA, such as miR-205, miR-19a, miR-17-3p and miR-17-5p, miR-618, miR-20a, miR-155, etc., have abnormal expressions in ATC tissues and cells when compared to those of non-neoplastic thyroid tissues and cells. Moreover, lncRNAs, such as H19, Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex P5 (HCP5), Urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1), Nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1), etc., participate in transcription and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in ATC cells. Dysregulations of these non-coding RNAs were associated with development and progression of ATC by modulating the functions of oncogenes during tumour progression. Thus, restoration of the abnormal expression of these miRNAs and lncRNAs may serve as promising ways to treat the patients with ATC. In addition, siRNA mediated inhibition of several oncogenes may act as a potential option against ATC. Thus, non-coding RNAs can be useful as prognostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for the better management of patients with ATC.

Abstract
Cytoplasmic male sterility is a well-proven mechanism for cotton hybrid production. Long non-coding RNAs belong to a class of transcriptional regulators that function in multiple biological processes. The cDNA libraries from the flower buds of the cotton CGMS, it's restorer (Rf) and maintainer lines were sequenced using high throughput NGS technique. A total of 1531 lncRNAs showed significant differential expression patterns between these three lines. Functional analysis of the co-expression network of lncRNA-mRNA using gene ontology vouchsafes that, lncRNAs play a crucial role in cytoplasmic male sterility and fertility restoration through pollen development, INO80 complex, development of anther wall tapetum, chromatin remodeling, and histone modification. Additionally, 94 lncRNAs were identified as putative precursors of 49 miRNAs. qRT-PCR affirms the concordance of expression pattern to RNA-seq data. These findings divulge the lncRNA driven miRNA-mediated regulation of gene expression profiling superintended for a better understanding of the CMS mechanisms of cotton.

BAP1 promotes stalled fork restart and cell survival via INO80 in response to replication stress. Biochem J 2020; 476:3053-3066.

Abstract
The recovery from replication stress by restarting stalled forks to continue DNA synthesis is crucial for maintaining genome stability and thereby preventing diseases such as cancer. We previously showed that BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1), a nuclear deubiquitinase with tumor suppressor activity, promotes replication fork progression by stabilizing the INO80 chromatin remodeler via deubiquitination and recruiting it to replication forks during normal DNA synthesis. However, whether BAP1 functions in DNA replication under stress conditions is unknown. Here, we show that BAP1 depletion reduces S-phase progression and DNA synthesis after treatment with hydroxyurea (HU). BAP1-depleted cells exhibit a defect in the restart of HU-induced stalled replication forks, which is recovered by the ectopic expression of INO80. Both BAP1 and INO80 bind chromatin at replication forks upon HU treatment. BAP1 depletion abrogates the binding of INO80 to replication forks and increases the formation of RAD51 foci following HU treatment. BAP1-depleted cells show hypersensitivity to HU treatment, which is rescued by INO80 expression. These results suggest that BAP1 promotes the restart of stress-induced stalled replication forks by recruiting INO80 to the stalled forks. This function of BAP1 in replication stress recovery may contribute to its ability to suppress genome instability and cancer development.

MUTATION RESEARCH-REVIEWS IN MUTATION RESEARCH 2020; 784:108307. [PMID: 32430099 DOI: 10.1016/j.mrrev.2020.108307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2019] [Revised: 02/25/2020] [Accepted: 02/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system stimulates growth, proliferation, and regulates differentiation of cells in a tissue-specific manner. It is composed of two insulin-like growth factors (IGF-1 and IGF-2), six insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins (IGFBPs), and two insulin-like growth factor receptors (IGF-1R and IGF-2R). IGF actions take place mostly through the activation of the plasma membrane-bound IGF-Rs by the circulating ligands (IGFs) released from the IGFBPs that stabilize their levels in the serum. This review focuses on the IGF-1 part of the system. The IGF-1 gene, which is expressed mainly in the liver as well as in other tissues, comprises six alternatively spliced exons that code for three protein isoforms (pro-IGF-1A, pro-IGF-1B, and pro-IGF-1C), which are processed to mature IGF-1 and E-peptides. The IGF-1R undergoes autophosphorylation, resulting in a signaling cascade involving numerous cytoplasmic proteins such as AKT and MAPKs, which regulate the expression of target genes. However, a more complex picture of the axis has recently emerged with all its components being translocated to the nuclear compartment. IGF-1R takes part in the regulation of gene expression by forming transcription complexes, modifying the activity of chromatin remodeling proteins, and participating in DNA damage tolerance mechanisms. Four IGFBPs contain a nuclear localization signal (NLS), which targets them to the nucleus, where they regulate gene expression (IGFBP-2, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-5, IGFBP-6) and DNA damage repair (IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-6). Last but not least, the IGF-1B isoform has been reported to be localized in the nuclear compartment. However, no specific molecular actions have been assigned to the nuclear pro-IGF-1B or its derivative EB peptide. Therefore, further studies are needed to shed light on their nuclear activity. These recently uncovered nuclear actions of different components of the IGF-1 axis are relevant in cancer cell biology and are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Centromeres are maintained epigenetically by the presence of CENP-A, an evolutionarily conserved histone H3 variant, which directs kinetochore assembly and hence centromere function. To identify factors that promote assembly of CENP-A chromatin, we affinity-selected solubilized fission yeast CENP-ACnp1 chromatin. All subunits of the Ino80 complex were enriched, including the auxiliary subunit Hap2. Chromatin association of Hap2 is Ies4-dependent. In addition to a role in maintenance of CENP-ACnp1 chromatin integrity at endogenous centromeres, Hap2 is required for de novo assembly of CENP-ACnp1 chromatin on naïve centromere DNA and promotes H3 turnover on centromere regions and other loci prone to CENP-ACnp1 deposition. Prior to CENP-ACnp1 chromatin assembly, Hap2 facilitates transcription from centromere DNA. These analyses suggest that Hap2-Ino80 destabilizes H3 nucleosomes on centromere DNA through transcription-coupled histone H3 turnover, driving the replacement of resident H3 nucleosomes with CENP-ACnp1 nucleosomes. These inherent properties define centromere DNA by directing a program that mediates CENP-ACnp1 assembly on appropriate sequences.

Abstract
Nuclear actin plays a critical role in mediating mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) fate commitment. In marrow-derived MSCs, the principal diaphanous-related formin Diaph3 (mDia2) is present in the nucleus and regulates intranuclear actin polymerization, whereas Diaph1 (mDia1) is localized to the cytoplasm and controls cytoplasmic actin polymerization. We here show that mDia2 can be used as a tool to query actin-lamin nucleoskeletal structure. Silencing mDia2 affected the nucleoskeletal lamin scaffold, altering nuclear morphology without affecting cytoplasmic actin cytoskeleton, and promoted MSC differentiation. Attempting to target intranuclear actin polymerization by silencing mDia2 led to a profound loss in lamin B1 nuclear envelope structure and integrity, increased nuclear height, and reduced nuclear stiffness without compensatory changes in other actin nucleation factors. Loss of mDia2 with the associated loss in lamin B1 promoted Runx2 transcription and robust osteogenic differentiation and suppressed adipogenic differentiation. Hence, mDia2 is a potent tool to query intranuclear actin-lamin nucleoskeletal structure, and its presence serves to retain multipotent stromal cells in an undifferentiated state.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) are a diverse set of malignancies that have recently been shown to harbour mutations in a number of chromatin modifier genes - including PBRM1, SETD2, BAP1, KDM5C, KDM6A, and MLL2 - through high-throughput sequencing efforts. Current research focuses on understanding the biological activities that chromatin modifiers employ to suppress tumorigenesis and on developing clinical approaches that take advantage of this knowledge. Unsurprisingly, several common themes unify the functions of these epigenetic modifiers, particularly regulation of histone post-translational modifications and nucleosome organization. Furthermore, chromatin modifiers also govern processes crucial for DNA repair and maintenance of genomic integrity as well as the regulation of splicing and other key processes. Many chromatin modifiers have additional non-canonical roles in cytoskeletal regulation, which further contribute to genomic stability, expanding the repertoire of functions that might be essential in tumorigenesis. Our understanding of how mutations in chromatin modifiers contribute to tumorigenesis in RCC is improving but remains an area of intense investigation. Importantly, elucidating the activities of chromatin modifiers offers intriguing opportunities for the development of new therapeutic interventions in RCC.

Abstract
MicroRNAs, highly-conserved small RNAs, act as key regulators of many biological functions in both plants and animals by post-transcriptionally regulating gene expression through interactions with their target mRNAs. The microRNA research is a dynamic field, in which new and unconventional aspects are emerging alongside well-established roles in development and stress adaptation. A recent hypothesis states that miRNAs can be transferred from one species to another and potentially target genes across distant species. Here, we propose to look into the trans-kingdom potential of miRNAs as a tool to bridge conserved pathways between plant and human cells. To this aim, a novel multi-faceted bioinformatic analysis pipeline was developed, enabling the investigation of common biological processes and genes targeted in plant and human transcriptome by a set of publicly available Medicago truncatula miRNAs. Multiple datasets, including miRNA, gene, transcript and protein sequences, expression profiles and genetic interactions, were used. Three different strategies were employed, namely a network-based pipeline, an alignment-based pipeline, and a M. truncatula network reconstruction approach, to study functional modules and to evaluate gene/protein similarities among miRNA targets. The results were compared in order to find common features, e.g., microRNAs targeting similar processes. Biological processes like exocytosis and response to viruses were common denominators in the investigated species. Since the involvement of miRNAs in the regulation of DNA damage response (DDR)-associated pathways is barely explored, especially in the plant kingdom, a special attention is given to this aspect. Hereby, miRNAs predicted to target genes involved in DNA repair, recombination and replication, chromatin remodeling, cell cycle and cell death were identified in both plants and humans, paving the way for future interdisciplinary advancements.

Abstract
Predominantly antibody deficiencies (PADs) are the most frequent forms of primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs). Commonly accompanied with complications involving several body systems, immunoglobulin substitution therapy along with prophylactic antibiotics remained the cornerstone of treatment for PADs and related complications. Patients with respiratory complications should be prescribed an appropriate therapy as soon as possible and have to be adhering to more and longer medical therapies. Recent studies identified a gap for screening protocols to monitor respiratory manifestations in patients with PADs. In the present chapter, the pulmonary manifestations of different PADs for each have been discussed. The chapter is mainly focused on X-linked agammaglobulinemia, common variable immunodeficiency, activated PI3K-δ syndrome, LRBA deficiency, CD19 complex deficiencies, CD20 deficiency, other monogenic defects associated with hypogammaglobulinemia, immunoglobulin class switch recombination deficiencies affecting B-cells, transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy, and selective IgA deficiency.

Abstract
Mammalian SWI/SNF (mSWI/SNF) ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes are multi-subunit molecular machines that play vital roles in regulating genomic architecture and are frequently disrupted in human cancer and developmental disorders. To date, the modular organization and pathways of assembly of these chromatin regulators remain unknown, presenting a major barrier to structural and functional determination. Here, we elucidate the architecture and assembly pathway across three classes of mSWI/SNF complexes-canonical BRG1/BRM-associated factor (BAF), polybromo-associated BAF (PBAF), and newly defined ncBAF complexes-and define the requirement of each subunit for complex formation and stability. Using affinity purification of endogenous complexes from mammalian and Drosophila cells coupled with cross-linking mass spectrometry (CX-MS) and mutagenesis, we uncover three distinct and evolutionarily conserved modules, their organization, and the temporal incorporation of these modules into each complete mSWI/SNF complex class. Finally, we map human disease-associated mutations within subunits and modules, defining specific topological regions that are affected upon subunit perturbation.

Abstract
Actin is not only one of the most abundant proteins in eukaryotic cells, but also one of the most versatile. In addition to its familiar involvement in enabling contraction and establishing cellular motility and scaffolding in the cytosol, actin has well-documented roles in a variety of processes within the confines of the nucleus, such as transcriptional regulation and DNA repair. Interestingly, monomeric actin as well as actin-related proteins (Arps) are found as stoichiometric subunits of a variety of chromatin remodeling complexes and histone acetyltransferases, raising the question of precisely what roles they serve in these contexts. Actin and Arps are present in unique combinations in chromatin modifiers, helping to establish structural integrity of the complex and enabling a wide range of functions, such as recruiting the complex to nucleosomes to facilitate chromatin remodeling and promoting ATPase activity of the catalytic subunit. Actin and Arps are also thought to help modulate chromatin dynamics and maintain higher-order chromatin structure. Moreover, the presence of actin and Arps in several chromatin modifiers is necessary for promoting genomic integrity and an effective DNA damage response. In this review, we discuss the involvement of actin and Arps in these nuclear complexes that control chromatin remodeling and histone modifications, while also considering avenues for future study to further shed light on their functional importance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND LncRNA PTCSC3 is a tumor suppressor in thyroid cancer, and its role in drug resistance of anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) to chemotherapy drug doxorubicin was investigated in this study. METHODS Expression of RNA and protein was analyzed by qRT-PCR and western blot, respectively. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the expression rate of CD133+ cells. The endogenous expression of related genes was modulated by recombinant plasmids and cell transfection. Combination condition and interaction between PTCSC3 and STAT3 were determined by RIP and RNA pull-down assay, respectively. MTT assay was performed to detect cytotoxicity. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was conducted to identify interactions between STAT3 and DNA promoter of INO80. RESULTS LncRNA PTCSC3 was low-expressed in ATC tissues and cells. Over-expressed PTCSC3 inhibited the drug resistance of ATC to doxorubicin. PTCSC3 negatively regulated STAT3, and STAT3 promoted expression of INO80. PTCSC3 regulated INO80 through STAT3. PTCSC3 suppressed stem cells properties and drug resistance of ATC to doxorubicin. CONCLUSION LncRNA PTCSC3 inhibits INO80 expression by negatively regulating STAT3, and thereby attenuating drug resistance of ATC to chemotherapy drug doxorubicin.

Abstract
Members of the bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) family of proteins (bromodomain-containing (BRD) 2, 3, 4, and T) are widely expressed and highly conserved regulators of gene expression in eukaryotes. These proteins have been intimately linked to human disease, and more than a dozen clinical trials are currently underway to test BET-protein inhibitors as modulators of cancer. However, although it is clear that these proteins use their bromodomains to bind both histones and transcription factors bearing acetylated lysine residues, the molecular mechanisms by which BET family proteins regulate gene expression are not well defined. In particular, the functions of the other domains such as the ET domain have been less extensively studied. Here, we examine the properties of the ET domain of BRD3 as a protein/protein interaction module. Using a combination of pulldown and biophysical assays, we demonstrate that BRD3 binds to a range of chromatin-remodeling complexes, including the NuRD, BAF, and INO80 complexes, via a short linear "KIKL" motif in one of the complex subunits. NMR-based structural analysis revealed that, surprisingly, this mode of interaction is shared by the AF9 and ENL transcriptional coregulators that contain an acetyl-lysine-binding YEATS domain and regulate transcriptional elongation. This observation establishes a functional commonality between these two families of cancer-related transcriptional regulators. In summary, our data provide insight into the mechanisms by which BET family proteins might link chromatin acetylation to transcriptional outcomes and uncover an unexpected functional similarity between BET and YEATS family proteins.

Abstract
Epigenetics refers to all the changes in phenotype and gene expression which are not due to alterations in the DNA sequence. These mechanisms have a pivotal role not only in the development but also in the maintenance during adulthood of a physiological phenotype of the heart. Because of the crucial role of epigenetic modifications, their alteration can lead to the arise of pathological conditions. Heart failure affects an estimated 23 million people worldwide and leads to substantial numbers of hospitalizations and health care costs: ischemic heart disease, hypertension, rheumatic fever and other valve diseases, cardiomyopathy, cardiopulmonary disease, congenital heart disease and other factors may all lead to heart failure, either alone or in concert with other risk factors. Epigenetic alterations have recently been included among these risk factors as they can affect gene expression in response to external stimuli. In this review, we provide an overview of all the major classes of chromatin remodellers, providing examples of how their disregulation in the adult heart alters specific gene programs with subsequent development of major cardiomyopathies. Understanding the functional significance of the different epigenetic marks as points of genetic control may be useful for developing promising future therapeutic tools.

Abstract
Ino80 ATPase is an integral component of the INO80 ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complex, which regulates transcription, DNA repair and replication. We found that Ino80 was highly expressed in cervical cancer cell lines and tumor samples. Ino80 knockdown inhibited cervical cancer cell proliferation, induced G0/G1 phase cell cycle arrest in vitro and suppressed tumor growth in vivo. However, Ino80 knockdown did not affect cell apoptosis, migration or invasion in vitro. Ino80 overexpression promoted proliferation in the H8 immortalized cervical epithelial cell line, which has low endogenous Ino80 expression as compared to cervical cancer cell lines. Ino80 bound to the Nanog transcription start site (TSS) and enhanced its expression in cervical cancer cells. Nanog overexpression in Ino80 knockdown cell lines promoted cell proliferation. This study demonstrated for the first time that Ino80 was upregulated in cervical cancer and promoted cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. Our findings suggest that Ino80 may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of cervical cancer.

Abstract
The translation initiation machinery is emerging as an important target for therapeutic intervention, with potential in the treatment of cancer, viral infections, and muscle wasting. Amongst the targets for pharmacological control of translation initiation is the eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (eIF4A), an RNA helicase that is essential for cap-dependent translation initiation. We set out to explore the system-wide impact of a reduction of functional eIF4A. To this end, we investigated the effect of deletion of TIF1, one of the duplicate genes that produce eIF4A in yeast, through synthetic genetic array interactions and system-wide changes in GFP-tagged protein abundances. We show that there is a biological response to deletion of the TIF1 gene that extends through the proteostasis network. Effects of the deletion are apparent in processes as distributed as chromatin remodelling, ribosome biogenesis, amino acid metabolism, and protein trafficking. The results from this study identify protein complexes and pathways that will make ideal targets for combination therapies with eIF4A inhibitors.

Abstract
Genome maintenance and integrity requires continuous alterations of the compaction state of the chromatin structure. Chromatin remodelers, among others the INO80 complex, help organize chromatin by repositioning, reshaping, or evicting nucleosomes. We report on INO80 nucleosome remodeling, assayed by single-molecule Foerster resonance energy transfer on canonical nucleosomes as well as nucleosomes assembled from tailless histones. Nucleosome repositioning by INO80 is a processively catalyzed reaction. During the initiation of remodeling, probed by the INO80 bound state, the nucleosome reveals structurally heterogeneous states for tailless nucleosomes (in contrast to wild-type nucleosomes). We, therefore, propose an altered energy landscape for the INO80-mediated nucleosome sliding reaction in the absence of histone tails.

Abstract
The INO80 chromatin-remodeling complex performs functions in many chromosomal processes that are crucial for genome stability, such as DNA replication and stalled replication fork recovery. Although these functions suggest that INO80 acts as a tumor suppressor, its specific role in tumorigenesis has remained obscure. Here, we show that a haploinsufficient mutation of Ino80, the catalytic ATPase of the INO80 complex, decreased intestinal adenomatous polyps and increased survival in an Apcmin/+ mouse model of colon cancer. Experiments using tumors obtained from Apcmin/+ mice and cells from human colon cancers showed that this Ino80 defect induced stalled replication forks, the concomitant activation of ATR-Chk1 signaling and an increase in apoptosis, suggesting that Ino80 haploinsufficiency inhibited colon cancer tumorigenesis by activating replication stress-induced ATR-Chk1 signaling to increase apoptosis. Importantly, in human colon cancer, we observed that the INO80 subunits were frequently present in high copy numbers and exhibited a high rate of amplification and increased protein expression. These results show that in contrast to our original prediction that INO80 acts as a tumor suppressor, INO80 actually functions oncogenically to promote colon tumorigenesis. INO80 therefore represents a novel therapeutic target in colon cancer. The results of this study also reinforce the emerging notion that while genomic instability can promote tumorigenesis, in certain genetic contexts, it can also act as a tumor suppressor.

Abstract
Nuclear actin regulates transcriptional programmes in a manner dependent on its levels and polymerisation state. This dynamics is determined by the balance of nucleocytoplasmic shuttling, formin- and redox-dependent filament polymerisation. Here, using Xenopus egg extracts and human somatic cells, we show that actin dynamics and formins are essential for DNA replication. In proliferating cells, formin inhibition abolishes nuclear transport and initiation of DNA replication, as well as general transcription. In replicating nuclei from transcriptionally silent Xenopus egg extracts, we identified numerous actin regulators, and disruption of actin dynamics abrogates nuclear transport, preventing NLS (nuclear localisation signal)-cargo release from RanGTP-importin complexes. Nuclear formin activity is further required to promote loading of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) onto chromatin, as well as initiation and elongation of DNA replication. Therefore, actin dynamics and formins control DNA replication by multiple direct and indirect mechanisms.

Abstract
The conserved INO80 chromatin remodeling complex is involved in regulation of DNA damage repair, replication and transcription. It is commonly recruited to the transcription start region and contributes to the establishment of promoter-proximal nucleosomes. We find a substantial influence of INO80 on nucleosome dynamics and gene expression during stress induced transcription. Transcription induced by osmotic stress leads to genome-wide remodeling of promoter proximal nucleosomes. INO80 function is required for timely return of evicted nucleosomes to the 5΄ end of induced genes. Reduced INO80 function in Arp8-deficient cells leads to correlated prolonged transcription and nucleosome eviction. INO80 and the related complex SWR1 regulate incorporation of the H2A.Z isoform at promoter proximal nucleosomes. However, H2A.Z seems not to influence osmotic stress induced gene regulation. Furthermore, we show that high rates of transcription promote INO80 recruitment to promoter regions, suggesting a connection between active transcription and promoter proximal nucleosome remodeling. In addition, we find that absence of INO80 enhances bidirectional promoter activity at highly induced genes and expression of a number of stress induced transcripts. We suggest that INO80 has a direct repressive role via promoter proximal nucleosome remodeling to limit high levels of transcription in yeast.

Abstract
Three deubiquitinating enzymes-Rpn11, Usp14, and Uch37-are associated with the proteasome regulatory particle. These enzymes allow proteasomes to remove ubiquitin from substrates before they are translocated into the core particle to be degraded. Although the translocation channel is too narrow for folded proteins, the force of translocation unfolds them mechanically. As translocation proceeds, ubiquitin chains bound to substrate are drawn to the channel's entry port, where they can impede further translocation. Rpn11, situated over the port, can remove these chains without compromising degradation because substrates must be irreversibly committed to degradation before Rpn11 acts. This coupling between deubiquitination and substrate degradation is ensured by the Ins-1 loop of Rpn11, which controls ubiquitin access to its catalytic site. In contrast to Rpn11, Usp14 and Uch37 can rescue substrates from degradation by promoting substrate dissociation from the proteasome prior to the commitment step. Uch37 is unique in being a component of both the proteasome and a second multisubunit assembly, the INO80 complex. However, only recruitment into the proteasome activates Uch37. Recruitment to the proteasome likewise activates Usp14. However, the influence of Usp14 on the proteasome depends on the substrate, due to its marked preference for proteins that carry multiple ubiquitin chains. Usp14 exerts complex control over the proteasome, suppressing proteasome activity even when inactive in deubiquitination. A major challenge for the field will be to elucidate the specificities of Rpn11, Usp14, and Uch37 in greater depth, employing not only model in vitro substrates but also their endogenous targets.

Abstract
MYST histone acetyltransferases have crucial functions in transcription, replication and DNA repair and are hence implicated in development and cancer. Here we characterise Myst2/Kat7/Hbo1 protein interactions in mouse embryonic stem cells by affinity purification coupled to mass spectrometry. This study confirms that in embryonic stem cells Myst2 is part of H3 and H4 histone acetylation complexes similar to those described in somatic cells. We identify a novel Myst2-associated protein, the tumour suppressor protein Niam (Nuclear Interactor of ARF and Mdm2). Human NIAM is involved in chromosome segregation, p53 regulation and cell proliferation in somatic cells, but its role in embryonic stem cells is unknown. We describe the first Niam embryonic stem cell interactome, which includes proteins with roles in DNA replication and repair, transcription, splicing and ribosome biogenesis. Many of Myst2 and Niam binding partners are required for correct embryonic development, implicating Myst2 and Niam in the cooperative regulation of this process and suggesting a novel role for Niam in embryonic biology. The data provides a useful resource for exploring Myst2 and Niam essential cellular functions and should contribute to deeper understanding of organism early development and survival as well as cancer. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD005987.

Mot1, Ino80C, and NC2 Function Coordinately to Regulate Pervasive Transcription in Yeast and Mammals. Mol Cell 2017; 67:594-607.e4.

Abstract
Pervasive transcription initiates from cryptic promoters and is observed in eukaryotes ranging from yeast to mammals. The Set2-Rpd3 regulatory system prevents cryptic promoter function within expressed genes. However, conserved systems that control pervasive transcription within intergenic regions have not been well established. Here we show that Mot1, Ino80 chromatin remodeling complex (Ino80C), and NC2 co-localize on chromatin and coordinately suppress pervasive transcription in S. cerevisiae and murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs). In yeast, all three proteins bind subtelomeric heterochromatin through a Sir3-stimulated mechanism and to euchromatin via a TBP-stimulated mechanism. In mESCs, the proteins bind to active and poised TBP-bound promoters along with promoters of polycomb-silenced genes apparently lacking TBP. Depletion of Mot1, Ino80C, or NC2 by anchor away in yeast or RNAi in mESCs leads to near-identical transcriptome phenotypes, with new subtelomeric transcription in yeast, and greatly increased pervasive transcription in both yeast and mESCs.

INO80 exchanges H2A.Z for H2A by translocating on DNA proximal to histone dimers. Nat Commun 2017; 8:15616.

Abstract
ATP-dependent chromatin remodellers modulate nucleosome dynamics by mobilizing or disassembling nucleosomes, as well as altering nucleosome composition. These chromatin remodellers generally function by translocating along nucleosomal DNA at the H3–H4 interface of nucleosomes. Here we show that, unlike other remodellers, INO80 translocates along DNA at the H2A–H2B interface of nucleosomes and persistently displaces DNA from the surface of H2A–H2B. DNA translocation and DNA torsional strain created near the entry site of nucleosomes by INO80 promotes both the mobilization of nucleosomes and the selective exchange of H2A.Z–H2B dimers out of nucleosomes and replacement by H2A–H2B dimers without any additional histone chaperones. We find that INO80 translocates and mobilizes H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes more efficiently than those containing H2A, partially accounting for the preference of INO80 to replace H2A.Z with H2A. Our data suggest that INO80 has a mechanism for dimer exchange that is distinct from other chromatin remodellers including its paralogue SWR1. Chromatin remodellers usually mobilize or disassemble nucleosomes by translocating along the nucleosomal DNA at the H3-H4 interface. Here, the authors provide evidence chromatin remodeller INO80 translocates along DNA at the H2A-H2B interface and displaces DNA from the surface of H2A-H2B.

Abstract
Cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and kale have well documented chemopreventative and anticancer effects that are attributed to the presence of isothiocyanates (ITCs). ITCs modulate the levels of many oncogenic proteins, but the molecular mechanisms of ITC action are not understood. We previously reported that phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) inhibits two deubiquitinases (DUBs), USP9x and UCH37. DUBs regulate many cellular processes and DUB dysregulation is linked to the pathogenesis of human diseases including cancer, neurodegeneration, and inflammation. Using SILAC assisted quantitative mass spectrometry, here we identify 9 new PEITC-DUB targets: USP1, USP3, USP10, USP11, USP16, USP22, USP40, USP48 and VCPIP1. Seven of these PEITC-sensitive DUBs have well-recognized roles in DNA repair or chromatin remodeling. PEITC both inhibits USP1 and increases its ubiquitination and degradation, thus decreasing USP1 activity by two mechanisms. The loss of USP1 activity increases the level of mono-ubiquitinated DNA clamp PCNA, impairing DNA repair. Both the inhibition/degradation of USP1 and the increase in mono-ubiquitinated PCNA are new activities for PEITC that can explain the previously recognized ability of ITCs to enhance cancer cell sensitivity to cisplatin treatment. Our work also demonstrates that PEITC reduces the mono-ubiquityl histones H2A and H2B. Understanding the mechanism of action of ITCs should facilitate their use as therapeutic agents.

PLoS Genet 2017; 13:e1006732. [PMID: 28403234 PMCID: PMC5406019 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1006732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2016] [Revised: 04/26/2017] [Accepted: 04/03/2017] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Rhythmic activation and repression of the frequency (frq) gene are essential for normal function of the Neurospora circadian clock. WHITE COLLAR (WC) complex, the positive element of the Neurospora circadian system, is responsible for stimulation of frq transcription. We report that a C2H2 finger domain-containing protein IEC-1 and its associated chromatin remodeling complex INO80 play important roles in normal Neurospora circadian clock function. In iec-1KO strains, circadian rhythms are abolished, and the frq transcript levels are increased compared to that of the wild-type strain. Similar results are observed in mutant strains of the INO80 subunits. Furthermore, ChIP data show that recruitment of the INO80 complex to the frq promoter is IEC-1-dependent. WC-mediated transcription of frq contributes to the rhythmic binding of the INO80 complex at the frq promoter. As demonstrated by ChIP analysis, the INO80 complex is required for the re-establishment of the dense chromatin environment at the frq promoter. In addition, WC-independent frq transcription is present in ino80 mutants. Altogether, our data indicate that the INO80 complex suppresses frq transcription by re-assembling the suppressive mechanisms at the frq promoter after transcription of frq. Circadian clocks organize inner physiology to anticipate changes in the external environment. These clocks are controlled by the oscillation of central clock proteins which form the central oscillator. Transcriptional regulation is a critical step in the regulation of the oscillation of these core proteins. In eukaryotes, chromatin remodeling is a common mechanism to regulate gene transcription by conquering or establishing nucleosomal barriers for the transcription machinery. Here, we showed that a C2H2 finger domain-containing protein IEC-1 and its associated chromatin remodeling complex INO80 are required for transcriptional repression of the core clock gene frq in the Neurospora circadian system. Moreover, the activator WHITE COLLAR (WC) complex is responsible for the transcriptional activation of frq; thus, considering the different timing of the transcriptional activation and suppression of frq, there must be a mechanism that coordinates the two opposite processes. We also demonstrated that the WC-mediated open state of the frq promoter facilitates the binding of INO80 to this region, which prepares for subsequent transcriptional suppression. Collectively, our data provide novel insights into the regulation of the frq gene and the circadian clock.

Abstract
Biological networks consist of functional modules, however detecting and characterizing such modules in networks remains challenging. Perturbing networks is one strategy for identifying modules. Here we used an advanced mathematical approach named topological data analysis (TDA) to interrogate two perturbed networks. In one, we disrupted the S. cerevisiae INO80 protein interaction network by isolating complexes after protein complex components were deleted from the genome. In the second, we reanalyzed previously published data demonstrating the disruption of the human Sin3 network with a histone deacetylase inhibitor. Here we show that disrupted networks contained topological network modules (TNMs) with shared properties that mapped onto distinct locations in networks. We define TMNs as proteins that occupy close network positions depending on their coordinates in a topological space. TNMs provide new insight into networks by capturing proteins from different categories including proteins within a complex, proteins with shared biological functions, and proteins disrupted across networks.
