Structural insights into the human NuA4/TIP60 acetyltransferase and chromatin remodeling complex. Science 2024; 385:eadl5816. [PMID: 39088653 DOI: 10.1126/science.adl5816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/03/2024]
Abstract
The human nucleosome acetyltransferase of histone H4 (NuA4)/Tat-interactive protein, 60 kilodalton (TIP60) coactivator complex, a fusion of the yeast switch/sucrose nonfermentable related 1 (SWR1) and NuA4 complexes, both incorporates the histone variant H2A.Z into nucleosomes and acetylates histones H4, H2A, and H2A.Z to regulate gene expression and maintain genome stability. Our cryo-electron microscopy studies show that, within the NuA4/TIP60 complex, the E1A binding protein P400 (EP400) subunit serves as a scaffold holding the different functional modules in specific positions, creating a distinct arrangement of the actin-related protein (ARP) module. EP400 interacts with the transformation/transcription domain-associated protein (TRRAP) subunit by using a footprint that overlaps with that of the Spt-Ada-Gcn5 acetyltransferase (SAGA) complex, preventing the formation of a hybrid complex. Loss of the TRRAP subunit leads to mislocalization of NuA4/TIP60, resulting in the redistribution of H2A.Z and its acetylation across the genome, emphasizing the dual functionality of NuA4/TIP60 as a single macromolecular assembly.

Abstract
Mammalian TIP60 is a multi-functional enzyme with histone acetylation and histone dimer exchange activities. It plays roles in diverse cellular processes including transcription, DNA repair, cell cycle control, and embryonic development. Here we report the cryo-electron microscopy structures of the human TIP60 complex with the core subcomplex and TRRAP module refined to 3.2-Å resolution. The structures show that EP400 acts as a backbone integrating the motor module, the ARP module, and the TRRAP module. The RUVBL1-RUVBL2 hexamer serves as a rigid core for the assembly of EP400 ATPase and YL1 in the motor module. In the ARP module, an ACTL6A-ACTB heterodimer and an extra ACTL6A make hydrophobic contacts with EP400 HSA helix, buttressed by network interactions among DMAP1, EPC1, and EP400. The ARP module stably associates with the motor module but is flexibly tethered to the TRRAP module, exhibiting a unique feature of human TIP60. The architecture of the nucleosome-bound human TIP60 reveals an unengaged nucleosome that is located between the core subcomplex and the TRRAP module. Our work illustrates the molecular architecture of human TIP60 and provides architectural insights into how this complex is bound by the nucleosome.

Abstract
ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers play a crucial role in modifying chromatin configuration by utilizing the energy of ATP hydrolysis. They are involved in various processes, including transcription, DNA replication, and maintaining genome stability. These remodeling remodelers usually form multi-subunit chromatin remodeling complexes in eukaryotes. In plants, chromatin remodeling complexes have diverse functions in regulating plant development and stress response. Recent studies have conducted extensive research on plant chromatin remodeling complexes. This review focuses on recent advances in the classification and composition of plant chromatin remodeling complexes, the protein-protein interactions within the complexes, their impact on chromatin configuration, and their interactions with chromatin modifications and transcription factors.

Abstract
The evolutionarily conserved AAA+ ATPases Rvb1 and Rvb2 proteins form a heteromeric complex (Rvb1/2) required for assembly or remodeling of macromolecular complexes in essential cellular processes ranging from chromatin remodeling to ribosome biogenesis. Rvb1 and Rvb2 have a high degree of sequence and structural similarity, and both contain the classical features of ATPases of their clade, including an N-terminal AAA+ subdomain with the Walker A motif, an insertion domain that typically interacts with various binding partners, and a C-terminal AAA+ subdomain containing a Walker B motif, the Sensor I and II motifs, and an arginine finger. In this study, we find that despite the high degree of structural similarity, Rvb1 and Rvb2 have distinct active sites that impact their activities and regulation within the Rvb1/2 complex. Using a combination of biochemical and genetic approaches, we show that replacing the homologous arginine fingers of Rvb1 and Rvb2 with different amino acids not only has distinct effects on the catalytic activity of the complex, but also impacts cell growth, and the Rvb1/2 interactions with binding partners. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we find that changes near the active site of Rvb1 and Rvb2 cause long-range effects on the protein dynamics in the insertion domain, suggesting a molecular basis for how enzymatic activity within the catalytic site of ATP hydrolysis can be relayed to other domains of the Rvb1/2 complex to modulate its function. Further, we show the impact that the arginine finger variants have on snoRNP biogenesis and validate the findings from molecular dynamics simulations using a targeted genetic screen. Together, our results reveal new aspects of the regulation of the Rvb1/2 complex by identifying a relay of long-range molecular communication from the ATPase active site of the complex to the binding site of cofactors. Most importantly, our findings suggest that despite high similarity and cooperation within the same protein complex, the two proteins have evolved with unique properties critical for the regulation and function of the Rvb1/2 complex.

Abstract
The INO80 chromatin remodeler is a versatile enzyme capable of several functions, including spacing nucleosomes equal distances apart, precise positioning of nucleosomes based on DNA shape/sequence and exchanging histone dimers. Within INO80, the Arp5 subunit plays a central role in INO80 remodeling, evidenced by its interactions with the histone octamer, nucleosomal and extranucleosomal DNA, and its necessity in linking INO80's ATPase activity to nucleosome movement. Our investigation reveals that the grappler domain of Arp5 interacts with the acidic pocket of nucleosomes through two distinct mechanisms: an arginine anchor or a hydrophobic/acidic patch. These two modes of binding serve distinct functions within INO80 as shown in vivo by mutations in these regions resulting in varying phenotypes and in vitro by diverse effects on nucleosome mobilization. Our findings suggest that the hydrophobic/acidic patch of Arp5 is likely important for dimer exchange by INO80, while the arginine anchor is crucial for mobilizing nucleosomes.

Abstract
R2TP is a chaperone complex consisting of the AAA+ ATPases RUVBL1 and RUVBL2, as well as RPAP3 and PIH1D1 proteins. R2TP is responsible for the assembly of macromolecular complexes mainly acting through different adaptors. Using proximity-labeling mass spectrometry, we identified deleted in primary ciliary dyskinesia (DPCD) as an adaptor of R2TP. Here, we demonstrate that R2TP-DPCD influences ciliogenesis initiation through a unique mechanism by interaction with Akt kinase to regulate its phosphorylation levels rather than its stability. We further show that DPCD is a heart-shaped monomeric protein with two domains. A highly conserved region in the cysteine- and histidine-rich domains-containing proteins and SGT1 (CS) domain of DPCD interacts with the RUVBL2 DII domain with high affinity to form a stable R2TP-DPCD complex both in cellulo and in vitro. Considering that DPCD is one among several CS-domain-containing proteins found to associate with RUVBL1/2, we propose that RUVBL1/2 are CS-domain-binding proteins that regulate complex assembly and downstream signaling.

Abstract
AAA ATPases are a conserved group of enzymes that couple ATP hydrolysis to diverse activities critical for cellular homeostasis by targeted protein-protein interactions. Some of these interactions are potential therapeutic targets because of their role in cancers which rely on increased AAA ATPase activities for maintenance of genomic stability. Two well-characterized members of this family are p97/VCP and RUVBL ATPases where there is a growing understanding of their structure and function, as well as an emerging landscape of selective inhibitors. Here we highlight recent progress in this field, with particular emphasis on structural advances enabled by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM).

Abstract
Macromolecular complexes play essential roles in various cellular processes. The assembly of macromolecular assemblies within the cell must overcome barriers imposed by a crowded cellular environment which is characterized by an estimated concentration of biological macromolecules amounting to 100-450 g/L that take up approximately 5-40% of the cytoplasmic volume. The formation of the macromolecular assemblies is facilitated by molecular chaperones in cooperation with their co-chaperones. The R2TP protein complex has emerged as a co-chaperone of Hsp90 that plays an important role in macromolecular assembly. The R2TP complex is composed of a heterodimer of RPAP3:P1H1DI that is in turn complexed to members of the ATPase associated with diverse cellular activities (AAA +), RUVBL1 and RUVBL2 (R1 and R2) families. What makes the R2TP co-chaperone complex particularly important is that it is involved in a wide variety of cellular processes including gene expression, translation, co-translational complex assembly, and posttranslational protein complex formation. The functional versatility of the R2TP co-chaperone complex makes it central to cellular development; hence, it is implicated in various human diseases. In addition, their roles in the development of infectious disease agents has become of interest. In the current review, we discuss the roles of these proteins as co-chaperones regulating Hsp90 and its partnership with Hsp70. Furthermore, we highlight the structure-function features of the individual proteins within the R2TP complex and describe their roles in various cellular processes.

Abstract
Epigenetic dysregulation is reported in multiple cancers including Ewing sarcoma (EwS). However, the epigenetic networks underlying the maintenance of oncogenic signaling and therapeutic response remain unclear. Using a series of epigenetics- and complex-focused CRISPR screens, RUVBL1, the ATPase component of NuA4 histone acetyltransferase complex, is identified to be essential for EwS tumor progression. Suppression of RUVBL1 leads to attenuated tumor growth, loss of histone H4 acetylation, and ablated MYC signaling. Mechanistically, RUVBL1 controls MYC chromatin binding and modulates the MYC-driven EEF1A1 expression and thus protein synthesis. High-density CRISPR gene body scan pinpoints the critical MYC interacting residue in RUVBL1. Finally, this study reveals the synergism between RUVBL1 suppression and pharmacological inhibition of MYC in EwS xenografts and patient-derived samples. These results indicate that the dynamic interplay between chromatin remodelers, oncogenic transcription factors, and protein translation machinery can provide novel opportunities for combination cancer therapy.

Abstract
Although malaria related cases and deaths have consistently declined over time, growing resistance to existing anti-malarial drugs in Plasmodium remains a matter of extreme concern. Since we rely so heavily on use of chemotherapy for malaria treatment and knowing that all the available anti-malarial drug will become virtually useless in the near future, we have to increase our understanding of basic biology of the parasite as well as characterize new molecular targets that can be exploited for anti-malarial therapy. In the present study, PfRUVBLs (AAA family member proteins) were evaluated for their potential as novel anti-malarial drug target candidates, using computational approaches. Virtual High-throughput screening of various pharmacophore libraries obtained from three different databases (which included, Asinex, ZINC15 & PubChem) followed by extra precision docking, resulted in identification of relevant hit compounds that showed binding affinity with the active region of PfRUVBL1 protein. Based on molecular docking data, MD simulations, and protein-ligand interaction studies, combined with toxicity assessment & ADME profiling data, at least three best hits were eventually identified that could be novel potent inhibitors of PfRUVBL1 protein and can be further tested for anti-malarial activity using in vitro protocols.

Abstract
The nucleosomal landscape of chromatin depends on the concerted action of chromatin remodelers. The INO80 remodeler specifically places nucleosomes at the boundary of gene regulatory elements, which is proposed to be the result of an ATP-dependent nucleosome sliding activity that is regulated by extranucleosomal DNA features. Here, we use cryo-electron microscopy and functional assays to reveal how INO80 binds and is regulated by extranucleosomal DNA. Structures of the regulatory A-module bound to DNA clarify the mechanism of linker DNA binding. The A-module is connected to the motor unit via an HSA/post-HSA lever element to chemomechanically couple the motor and linker DNA sensing. Two notable sites of curved DNA recognition by coordinated action of the four actin/actin-related proteins and the motor suggest how sliding by INO80 can be regulated by extranucleosomal DNA features. Last, the structures clarify the recruitment of YY1/Ies4 subunits and reveal deep architectural similarities between the regulatory modules of INO80 and SWI/SNF complexes.

Abstract
Despite being a member of the chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein family, little is known about the exact role of CHD6 in chromatin remodeling or cancer disease. Here we show that CHD6 binds to chromatin to promote broad nucleosome eviction for transcriptional activation of many cancer pathways. By integrating multiple patient cohorts for bioinformatics analysis of over a thousand prostate cancer datasets, we found CHD6 expression elevated in prostate cancer and associated with poor prognosis. Further comprehensive experiments demonstrated that CHD6 regulates oncogenicity of prostate cancer cells and tumor development in a murine xenograft model. ChIP-Seq for CHD6, along with MNase-Seq and RNA-Seq, revealed that CHD6 binds on chromatin to evict nucleosomes from promoters and gene bodies for transcriptional activation of oncogenic pathways. These results demonstrated a key function of CHD6 in evicting nucleosomes from chromatin for transcriptional activation of prostate cancer pathways.

Abstract
Epigenetics is a process that involves the regulation of gene expression without altering the sequence of DNA. Numerous studies have documented that epigenetic mechanisms play a critical role in cell growth, differentiation, and cancer over the past decade. The well-known epigenetic modifications are either on DNA or at the histone proteins. Although several studies have focused on regulating gene expression by non-coding RNAs, the current understanding of their biological functions in various human diseases, particularly in cancers, is inadequate. Only about two percent of DNA is involved in coding the protein-coding genes, and leaving the rest 98 percent is non-coding and the scientific community regarded as junk or noise with no known purpose. Most non-coding RNAs are derived from such junk DNA and are known to be involved in various signaling pathways involving cancer initiation, progression, and the development of therapy resistance in many human cancer types. Recent studies have suggested that non-coding RNAs, especially microRNAs, piwi-interactingRNAs, and long non-coding RNAs, play a significant role in controlling epigenetic mechanism(s), indicating the potential effect of epigenetic modulation of non-coding RNAs on cancer progression. In this review article, we briefly presented epigenetic marks' characteristics, crosstalk between epigenetic modifications and microRNAs, piwi-interactingRNAs, and long non-coding RNAs to uncover the effect on the phenotype of pediatric cancers. Further, current knowledge on understanding the RNA epigenetics will help design novel therapeutics that target epigenetic regulatory networks to benefit cancer patients in the clinic.

Abstract
RUVBL1 and RUVBL2 are highly conserved AAA ATPases (ATPases Associated with various cellular Activities) and highly relevant to the progression of cancer, which makes them attractive targets for novel therapeutic anticancer drugs. In this work, docking-based virtual screening was performed to identify compounds with activity against the RUVBL1/2 complex. Seven compounds showed inhibitory activity against the complex in both enzymatic and cellular assays. A series of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide analogs were synthesized based on the scaffold of compound 15 with inhibitory activity and good potential for structural manipulation. Analysis of the structure-activity relationship identified the benzyl group on R2 and aromatic ring-substituted piperazinyl on R4 as essential for inhibitory activity against the RUVBL1/2 complex. Of these, compound 18, which has IC50 values of 6.0 ± 0.6 μM and 7.7 ± 0.9 μM against RUVBL1/2 complex and RUVBL1 respectively, showed the most potent inhibition in cell lines A549, H1795, HCT116, and MDA-MB-231 with IC50 values of 15 ± 1.2 μM, 15 ± 1.8 μM, 11 ± 1.0 μM, and 8.9 ± 0.9 μM respectively. A docking study of the compound was performed to predict the binding mode of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamides. Furthermore, mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis was employed to explore cellular proteins dysregulated by treatment with compounds 16, 18, and 19. Together, the data from these analyses suggest that that compound 18 could serve as a starting point for structural modifications in order to improve potency, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic parameters of potential therapeutic molecules.

RUVBL1 promotes enzalutamide resistance of prostate tumors through the PLXNA1-CRAF-MAPK pathway. Oncogene 2022; 41:3239-3250.

Abstract
Although enzalutamide improves the overall survival of patients with metastatic prostate cancers, enzalutamide resistance (ENZR) will be inevitably developed. Emerging evidence support that alternative oncogenic pathways may bypass the androgen receptor (AR) signaling to promote ENZR progression, however, the underpinning mechanisms remain poorly defined. Here, we report that the expression of RuvB like AAA ATPase 1 (RUVBL1) is upregulated in ENZR cells and xenograft models and prostate tumors in patients. Enzalutamide increases RUVBL1 accumulation in the cytoplasm, which in turn enhances the recruitment of CRAF proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase protein to plexin A1 (PLXNA1) and the subsequent activation of the downstream MAPK pathway. Co-overexpression of RUVBL1 and PLXNA1 defines a subgroup of prostate cancer (PCa) patients with a poor prognosis. Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition of RUVBL1 by CB-6644 suppresses ENZR cell proliferation and xenograft growth and allows re-sensitization of ENZR cells and xenografts to enzalutamide, indicating that RUVBL1 may act to substitute the AR signaling to promote cancer cell survival and ENZR development. Together, these findings may lead to the identification of RUVBL1 as a potential therapeutic target for ENZR tumors.

Abstract
R2TP is a highly conserved chaperone complex formed by two AAA+ ATPases, RUVBL1 and RUVBL2, that associate with PIH1D1 and RPAP3 proteins. R2TP acts in promoting macromolecular complex formation. Here, we establish the principles of R2TP assembly. Three distinct RUVBL1/2-based complexes are identified: R2TP, RUVBL1/2-RPAP3 (R2T), and RUVBL1/2-PIH1D1 (R2P). Interestingly, we find that PIH1D1 does not bind to RUVBL1/RUVBL2 in R2TP and does not function as a nucleotide exchange factor; instead, RPAP3 is found to be the central subunit coordinating R2TP architecture and linking PIH1D1 and RUVBL1/2. We also report that RPAP3 contains an intrinsically disordered N-terminal domain mediating interactions with substrates whose sequences are primarily enriched for Armadillo repeat domains and other helical-type domains. Our work provides a clear and consistent model of R2TP complex structure and gives important insights into how a chaperone machine concerned with assembly of folded proteins into multisubunit complexes might work.

Abstract
Actin is a highly conserved protein in mammals. The actin dynamics is regulated by actin-binding proteins and actin-related proteins. Nuclear actin and these regulatory proteins participate in multiple nuclear processes, including chromosome architecture organization, chromatin remodeling, transcription machinery regulation, and DNA repair. It is well known that the dysfunctions of these processes contribute to the development of cancer. Moreover, emerging evidence has shown that the deregulated actin dynamics is also related to cancer. This chapter discusses how the deregulation of nuclear actin dynamics contributes to tumorigenesis via such various nuclear events.

Abstract
Biogenesis of the U5 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) is an essential and highly regulated process. In particular, PRPF8, one of U5 snRNP main components, requires HSP90 working in concert with R2TP, a cochaperone complex containing RUVBL1 and RUVBL2 AAA-ATPases, and additional factors that are still poorly characterized. Here, we use biochemistry, interaction mapping, mass spectrometry and cryoEM to study the role of ZNHIT2 in the regulation of the R2TP chaperone during the biogenesis of PRPF8. ZNHIT2 forms a complex with R2TP which depends exclusively on the direct interaction of ZNHIT2 with the RUVBL1–RUVBL2 ATPases. The cryoEM analysis of this complex reveals that ZNHIT2 alters the conformation and nucleotide state of RUVBL1–RUVBL2, affecting its ATPase activity. We characterized the interactions between R2TP, PRPF8, ZNHIT2, ECD and AAR2 proteins. Interestingly, PRPF8 makes a direct interaction with R2TP and this complex can incorporate ZNHIT2 and other proteins involved in the biogenesis of PRPF8 such as ECD and AAR2. Together, these results show that ZNHIT2 participates in the assembly of the U5 snRNP as part of a network of contacts between assembly factors required for PRPF8 biogenesis and the R2TP-HSP90 chaperone, while concomitantly regulating the structure and nucleotide state of R2TP.

Abstract
In the INO80 chromatin remodeling complex, all of the accessory subunits are assembled on the following three domains of INO80: N-terminal domain (NTD), HSA domain, and ATPase domain. Although the ATPase and HSA domains and their interacting accessory subunits are known to be responsible for chromatin remodeling, it is largely unknown how the accessory subunits that interact with the INO80 NTD regulate chromatin status. Here, we identify both conserved and nonconserved accessory subunits that interact with the three domains in the INO80 complex in Arabidopsis thaliana. While the accessory subunits that interact with all the three INO80 domains can mediate transcriptional repression, the INO80 NTD and the accessory subunits interact with it can contribute to transcriptional activation even when the ATPase domain is absent, suggesting that INO80 has an ATPase-independent role. A subclass of the COMPASS histone H3K4 methyltransferase complexes interact with the INO80 NTD in the INO80 complex and function together with the other accessory subunits that interact with the INO80 NTD, thereby facilitating H3K4 trimethylation and transcriptional activation. This study suggests that the opposite effects of the INO80 complex on transcription are required for the balance between vegetative growth and flowering under diverse environmental conditions.

Abstract
ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities (AAA+ proteins) are a superfamily of proteins found throughout all domains of life. The hallmark of this family is a conserved AAA+ domain responsible for a diverse range of cellular activities. Typically, AAA+ proteins transduce chemical energy from the hydrolysis of ATP into mechanical energy through conformational change, which can drive a variety of biological processes. AAA+ proteins operate in a variety of cellular contexts with diverse functions including disassembly of SNARE proteins, protein quality control, DNA replication, ribosome assembly, and viral replication. This breadth of function illustrates both the importance of AAA+ proteins in health and disease and emphasizes the importance of understanding conserved mechanisms of chemo-mechanical energy transduction. This review is divided into three major portions. First, the core AAA+ fold is presented. Next, the seven different clades of AAA+ proteins and structural details and reclassification pertaining to proteins in each clade are described. Finally, two well-known AAA+ proteins, NSF and its close relative p97, are reviewed in detail.

Abstract
The RVB proteins, composed of the conservative paralogs, RVB1 and RVB2, belong to the AAA+ (ATPases Associated with various cellular Activities) protein superfamily and are present in archaea and eukaryotes. The most distinct structural features are their ability to interact with each other forming the RVB1/2 complex and their participation in several macromolecular protein complexes leading them to be involved in many biological processes. We report here the biochemical and biophysical characterization of the Neurospora crassa RVB-1/RVB-2 complex. Chromatographic analyses revealed that the complex (APO) predominantly exists as a dimer in solution although hexamers were also observed. Nucleotides influence the oligomerization state, while ATP favors hexamers formation, ADP favors the formation of multimeric states, likely dodecamers, and the Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations revealed the contribution of certain amino acid residues in the nucleotide stabilization. The complex binds to dsDNA fragments and exhibits ATPase activity, which is strongly enhanced in the presence of DNA. In addition, both GFP-fused proteins are predominantly nuclear, and their nuclear localization signals (NLS) interact with importin-α (NcIMPα). Our findings show that some properties are specific of the fungus proteins despite of their high identity to orthologous proteins. They are essential proteins in N. crassa, and the phenotypic defects exhibited by the heterokaryotic strains, mainly related to growth and development, indicate N. crassa as a promising organism to investigate additional biological and structural aspects of these proteins.

Abstract
ATPases Associated with Diverse Cellular Activity (AAA ATPase) are essential enzymes found in all organisms. They are involved in various processes such as DNA replication, protein degradation, membrane fusion, microtubule serving, peroxisome biogenesis, signal transduction, and the regulation of gene expression. Due to the importance of AAA ATPases, several researchers identified and developed small-molecule inhibitors against these enzymes. We discuss six AAA ATPases that are potential drug targets and have well-developed inhibitors. We compare available structures that suggest significant differences of the ATP binding pockets among the AAA ATPases with or without ligand. The distances from ADP to the His20 in the His-Ser-His motif and the Arg finger (Arg353 or Arg378) in both RUVBL1/2 complex structures bound with or without ADP have significant differences, suggesting dramatically different interactions of the binding site with ADP. Taken together, the inhibitors of six well-studied AAA ATPases and their structural information suggest further development of specific AAA ATPase inhibitors due to difference in their structures. Future chemical biology coupled with proteomic approaches could be employed to develop variant specific, complex specific, and pathway specific inhibitors or activators for AAA ATPase proteins.

Abstract
The Bloom syndrome complex is a DNA damage repair machine. It consists of several protein components which are functional in isolation, but interdependent in cells for the maintenance of accurate homologous recombination. Mutations to any of the genes encoding these proteins cause numerous physical and developmental markers as well as phenotypes of genome instability, infertility, and cancer predisposition. Here we review the published structural and biochemical data on each of the components of the complex: the helicase BLM, the type IA topoisomerase TOP3A, and the OB-fold-containing RMI and RPA subunits. We describe how each component contributes to function, interacts with each other, and the DNA that it manipulates/repairs.

Abstract
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a surveillance pathway that degrades aberrant mRNAs and also regulates the expression of a wide range of physiological transcripts. RUVBL1 and RUVBL2 AAA-ATPases form an hetero-hexameric ring that is part of several macromolecular complexes such as INO80, SWR1, and R2TP. Interestingly, RUVBL1-RUVBL2 ATPase activity is required for NMD activation by an unknown mechanism. Here, we show that DHX34, an RNA helicase regulating NMD initiation, directly interacts with RUVBL1-RUVBL2 in vitro and in cells. Cryo-EM reveals that DHX34 induces extensive changes in the N-termini of every RUVBL2 subunit in the complex, stabilizing a conformation that does not bind nucleotide and thereby down-regulates ATP hydrolysis of the complex. Using ATPase-deficient mutants, we find that DHX34 acts exclusively on the RUVBL2 subunits. We propose a model, where DHX34 acts to couple RUVBL1-RUVBL2 ATPase activity to the assembly of factors required to initiate the NMD response.

Abstract
RUVBL1 and RUVBL2 are two highly conserved AAA+ ATPases that form a hetero-hexameric complex that participates in a wide range of unrelated cellular processes, including chromatin remodeling, Fanconi Anemia (FA), nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and assembly and maturation of several large macromolecular complexes such as RNA polymerases, the box C/D small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein (snoRNP) and mTOR complexes. How the RUVBL1-RUVBL2 complex works in such a variety of processes, sometimes antagonistic, has been obscure for a long time. Recent cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) studies have started to reveal how RUVBL1-RUVBL2 forms a scaffold for complex protein-protein interactions and how the structure and ATPase activity of RUVBL1-RUVBL2 can be affected and regulated by the interaction with clients.

Abstract
Chromatin remodeling complexes have functions in transcriptional regulation and chromosome maintenance, but it is mostly unknown how the function of these normally ubiquitous complexes is specified in the cellular context. Here, we describe that the evolutionary conserved long non‐coding RNA linc‐MYH regulates the composition of the INO80 chromatin remodeler complex in muscle stem cells and prevents interaction with WDR5 and the transcription factor YY1. Linc‐MYH acts as a selective molecular switch in trans that governs the pro‐proliferative function of the ubiquitous INO80 complex but does not affect its role in maintaining genomic stability. The molecular switch is essential for restricting generation of quiescent MuSCs and proliferation of myoblasts in homeostasis and regeneration. Since linc‐MYH is expressed in proliferating myoblasts but not in quiescent MuSCs, we reason that the extent of myoblast proliferation has decisive effects on the size of the quiescent MuSC pool.

Abstract
ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers are enigmatic macromolecular machines that govern the arrangement and composition of nucleosomes across eukaryotic genomes. Here, we review the recent breakthrough provided by cryo-electron microscopy that reveal the first high-resolution insights into all four families of remodelers. We highlight the emerging structural and mechanistic principles with a particular focus on multi-subunit SWI/SNF and INO80/SWR1 complexes. A conserved architecture comprising a motor, rotor, stator and grip suggests a unifying mechanism for how stepwise DNA translocation enables large scale reconfigurations of nucleosomes. A molecular circuitry involving the nuclear actin containing module establishes a framework for understanding allosteric regulation. Remodelers emerge as programable hubs that enable differential processing of genetic and epigenetic information in response to the physiological state of a cell.

Abstract
The presence of actin in the nucleus has historically been a highly contentious issue. It is now, however, well accepted that actin has physiologically important roles in the nucleus. In this Review, we describe the evolution of our thinking about actin in the nucleus starting with evidence supporting its involvement in transcription, chromatin remodeling and intranuclear movements. We also review the growing literature on the mechanisms that regulate the import and export of actin and how post-translational modifications of actin could regulate nuclear actin. We end with an extended discussion of the role of nuclear actin in the repair of DNA double stranded breaks.

Abstract
The presence and functions of nuclear actin have been controversial due to the lack of molecular mechanisms. Nuclear actin and actin-related proteins (Arps) are subunits of several chromatin remodelers, including the evolutionarily conserved INO80 chromatin-remodeling complex. Here, we present an improved cryo-EM structure of the yeast INO80 complex and the first 3D reconstruction of the INO80 actin/Arp module. The modular and subunit architecture is defined using a combination of subunit deletion analysis and published crosslinking-mass spectrometry. The functional interactions of the INO80 actin/Arp module with a nucleosome is 3D EM reconstructed in two different binding states. Nucleosomes initially bind to the Arp8 subunit and the substantial conformational changes maximize nucleosome contacts of the actin/Arp module, which could promote the bound nucleosome to be engaged onto the INO80 ATPase domain. Our findings suggest that the conserved nuclear actin/Arp module acts a conformational switch of the INO80 for nucleosome binding.

Abstract
The Rvb1-Rvb2-Tah1-Pih1 (R2TP) complex is a co-chaperone complex that works together with HSP90 in the activation and assembly of several macromolecular complexes, including RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and complexes of the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-like family of kinases (PIKKs), such as mTORC1 and ATR/ATRIP. R2TP is made of four subunits: RuvB-like protein 1 (RUVBL1) and RuvB-like 2 (RUVBL2) AAA-type ATPases, RNA polymerase II-associated protein 3 (RPAP3), and the Protein interacting with Hsp90 1 (PIH1) domain-containing protein 1 (PIH1D1). R2TP associates with other proteins as part of a complex co-chaperone machinery involved in the assembly and maturation of a growing list of macromolecular complexes. Recent progress in the structural characterization of R2TP has revealed an alpha-helical domain at the C-terminus of RPAP3 that is essential to bring the RUVBL1 and RUVBL2 ATPases to R2TP. The RPAP3 C-terminal domain interacts directly with RUVBL2 and it is also known as RUVBL2-binding domain (RBD). Several human proteins contain a region homologous to the RPAP3 C-terminal domain, and some are capable of assembling R2TP-like complexes, which could have specialized functions. Only the RUVBL1-RUVBL2 ATPase complex and a protein containing an RPAP3 C-terminal-like domain are found in all R2TP and R2TP-like complexes. Therefore, the RPAP3 C-terminal domain is one of few components essential for the formation of all R2TP and R2TP-like co-chaperone complexes.

Abstract
RUVBL1 and RUVBL2 are highly conserved ATPases that belong to the AAA+ (ATPases Associated with various cellular Activities) superfamily and are involved in various complexes and cellular processes, several of which are closely linked to oncogenesis. The proteins were implicated in DNA damage signaling and repair, chromatin remodeling, telomerase activity, and in modulating the transcriptional activities of proto-oncogenes such as c-Myc and β-catenin. Moreover, both proteins were found to be overexpressed in several different types of cancers such as breast, lung, kidney, bladder, and leukemia. Given their various roles and strong involvement in carcinogenesis, the RUVBL proteins are considered to be novel targets for the discovery and development of therapeutic cancer drugs. Here, we describe the identification of sorafenib as a novel inhibitor of the ATPase activity of human RUVBL2. Enzyme kinetics and surface plasmon resonance experiments revealed that sorafenib is a weak, mixed non-competitive inhibitor of the protein’s ATPase activity. Size exclusion chromatography and small angle X-ray scattering data indicated that the interaction of sorafenib with RUVBL2 does not cause a significant effect on the solution conformation of the protein; however, the data suggested that the effect of sorafenib on RUVBL2 activity is mediated by the insertion domain in the protein. Sorafenib also inhibited the ATPase activity of the RUVBL1/2 complex. Hence, we propose that sorafenib could be further optimized to be a potent inhibitor of the RUVBL proteins.

Abstract
The INO80 family of chromatin remodellers are multisubunit complexes that perform a variety of tasks on nucleosomes. Family members are built around a heterohexamer of RuvB-like protein, an ATP-dependent DNA translocase,nuclear actin and actin-related proteins, and a few complex-specific subunits. They modify chromatin in a number of ways including nucleosome sliding and exchange of variant histones. Recent structural information on INO80 and SWR1 complexes has revealed similarities in the basic architecture of the complexes. However, structural and biochemical data on the complexes bound to nucleosomes reveal these similarities to be somewhat superficial and their biochemical activities and mechanisms are very different. Consequently, the INO80 family displays a surprising diversity of function that is based upon a similar structural framework.

Abstract
The number of high-resolution structures of protein complexes obtained using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is increasing rapidly. Cryo-EM maps of large macromolecular complexes frequently contain regions resolved at different resolution levels, and modeling atomic structures de novo can be difficult for domains determined at worse than 5 Å in the absence of atomic information from other structures. Here we describe the details and step-by-step decisions in the strategy we followed to model the RUVBL2-binding domain (RBD), a 14 kDa domain at the C-terminus of RNA Polymerase II associated protein 3 (RPAP3) for which atomic information was not available. Modeling was performed on a cryo-EM map at 4.0-5.5 Å resolution, integrating information from secondary structure predictions, homology modeling, restraints from cross-linked mass spectrometry, and molecular dynamics (MD) in AMBER. Here, we compare our model with the structure of RBD determined by NMR to evaluate our strategy. We also perform new MD simulations to describe important residues mediating the interaction of RBD with RUVBL2 and analyze their conservation in RBD homologous domains. Our approach and its evaluation can serve as an example to address the analysis of medium resolution regions in cryo-EM maps.

Abstract
Chromatin remodelers alter the position and composition of nucleosomes, and play key roles in the regulation of chromatin structure and various chromatin-based transactions. Recent cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET) studies have shed mechanistic light on the fundamental question of how the remodeling enzymes couple with ATP hydrolysis to slide nucleosomes. Structures of the chromatin remodeler Snf2 bound to the nucleosome reveal the conformational cycle of the enzyme and the induced DNA distortion. Investigations on ISWI, Chd1, and INO80 support a unifying fundamental mechanism of DNA translocation. Finally, studies of the SWR1 complex suggest that the enzyme distorts the DNA abnormally to achieve histone exchange without net DNA translocation.

Abstract
Epigenetics has emerged as an extremely exciting fast-growing area of biomedical research in post genome era. Epigenetic dysfunction is tightly related with various diseases such as cancer and aging related degeneration, potentiating epigenetics modulators as important therapeutics targets. Indeed, inhibitors of histone deacetylase and DNA methyltransferase have been approved for treating blood tumor malignancies, whereas inhibitors of histone methyltransferase and histone acetyl-lysine recognizer bromodomain are in clinical stage. However, it remains a great challenge to discover potent and selective inhibitors by targeting catalytic site, as the same subfamily of epigenetic enzymes often share high sequence identity and very conserved catalytic core pocket. It is well known that epigenetic modifications are usually carried out by multi-protein complexes, and activation of catalytic subunit is often tightly regulated by other interactive protein component, especially in disease conditions. Therefore, it is not unusual that epigenetic complex machinery may exhibit allosteric regulation site induced by protein-protein interactions. Targeting allosteric site emerges as a compelling alternative strategy to develop epigenetic drugs with enhanced druggability and pharmacological profiles. In this review, we highlight recent progress in the development of allosteric inhibitors for epigenetic complexes through targeting protein-protein interactions. We also summarized the status of clinical applications of those inhibitors. Finally, we provide perspectives of future novel allosteric epigenetic machinery modulators emerging from otherwise undruggable single protein target.

Abstract
Modifications of chromatin structure are one of the key mechanisms regulating epigenetic gene expression. Proteins involved in chromatin modification mainly function as large multi-subunit complexes, and each component in the complex contributes to the function and activity of the complex. However, little is known about the structures of whole complexes and the mechanisms by which the chromatin-modifying complexes function, the functional roles of each component in the complexes, and how the complexes recognize the central unit of chromatin, the nucleosome. This lack of information is partially due to the lack of structural information for whole complexes. Recent advances in cryo-EM have begun to reveal the structures of whole chromatin-modifying complexes that enable us to understand the big picture of chromatin biology. In this review, we discuss the recent discoveries related to the mechanisms of chromatin-modifying complexes.

Abstract
The human R2TP complex (RUVBL1-RUVBL2-RPAP3-PIH1D1) is an HSP90 co-chaperone required for the maturation of several essential multiprotein complexes, including RNA polymerase II, small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins, and PIKK complexes such as mTORC1 and ATR-ATRIP. RUVBL1-RUVBL2 AAA-ATPases are also primary components of other essential complexes such as INO80 and Tip60 remodelers. Despite recent efforts, the molecular mechanisms regulating RUVBL1-RUVBL2 in these complexes remain elusive. Here, we report cryo-EM structures of R2TP and show how access to the nucleotide-binding site of RUVBL2 is coupled to binding of the client recruitment component of R2TP (PIH1D1) to its DII domain. This interaction induces conformational rearrangements that lead to the destabilization of an N-terminal segment of RUVBL2 that acts as a gatekeeper to nucleotide exchange. This mechanism couples protein-induced motions of the DII domains with accessibility of the nucleotide-binding site in RUVBL1-RUVBL2, and it is likely a general mechanism shared with other RUVBL1-RUVBL2-containing complexes.

Abstract
The baculovirus/insect cell system (BICS) is widely used in academia and industry to produce eukaryotic proteins for many applications, ranging from structure analysis to drug screening and the provision of protein biologics and therapeutics. Multi-protein complexes have emerged as vital catalysts of cellular function. In order to unlock the structure and mechanism of these essential molecular machines and decipher their function, we developed MultiBac, a BICS particularly tailored for heterologous multigene transfer and multi-protein complex production. Baculovirus is unique among common viral vectors in its capacity to accommodate very large quantities of heterologous DNA and to faithfully deliver this cargo to a host cell of choice. We exploited this beneficial feature to outfit insect cells with synthetic DNA circuitry conferring new functionality during heterologous protein expression, and developing customized MultiBac baculovirus variants in the process. By altering its tropism, recombinant baculovirions can be used for the highly efficient delivery of a customized DNA cargo in mammalian cells and tissues. Current advances in synthetic biology greatly facilitate the construction or recombinant baculoviral genomes for gene editing and genome engineering, mediated by a MultiBac baculovirus tailored to this purpose. Here, recent developments and exploits of the MultiBac system are presented and discussed.

Abstract
The yeast SWR1 complex exchanges histone H2A in nucleosomes with Htz1 (H2A.Z in humans). The cryo-electron microscopy structure of the SWR1 complex bound to a nucleosome at 3.6-angstrom resolution reveals details of the intricate interactions between components of the SWR1 complex and its nucleosome substrate. Interactions between the Swr1 motor domains and the DNA wrap at superhelical location 2 distort the DNA, causing a bulge with concomitant translocation of the DNA by one base pair, coupled to conformational changes of the histone core. Furthermore, partial unwrapping of the DNA from the histone core takes place upon binding of nucleosomes to SWR1 complex. The unwrapping, as monitored by single-molecule data, is stabilized and has its dynamics altered by adenosine triphosphate binding but does not require hydrolysis.

Abstract
Single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has recently become a mainstream technique for the structural determination of macromolecules. Typical cryo-EM workflows collect hundreds of thousands of single-particle projections from thousands of micrographs using particle-picking algorithms. However, the number of false positives selected by these algorithms is large, so that a number of different 'cleaning steps' are necessary to decrease the false-positive ratio. Most commonly employed techniques for the pruning of false-positive particles are time-consuming and require user intervention. In order to overcome these limitations, a deep learning-based algorithm named Deep Consensus is presented in this work. Deep Consensus works by computing a smart consensus over the output of different particle-picking algorithms, resulting in a set of particles with a lower false-positive ratio than the initial set obtained by the pickers. Deep Consensus is based on a deep convolutional neural network that is trained on a semi-automatically generated data set. The performance of Deep Consensus has been assessed on two well known experimental data sets, virtually eliminating user intervention for pruning, and enhances the reproducibility and objectivity of the whole process while achieving precision and recall figures above 90%.

Abstract
Direct electron detector technology combined with improved imaging processing procedures has dramatically increased the resolution that can be obtained by single-particle cryo-electron microscopy and cryo-electron tomography. These developments-often referred to as the `resolution revolution' in cryo-EM-have had a profound impact on the structural biology of transcription as they allow the determination of atomic or near-atomic resolution structures of very large, flexible and often transient transcription complexes that in many cases had resisted crystal structure determination for decades. In this review, we will discuss recent advances and breakthroughs in the structural biology of transcription complexes enabled by the revolution in cryo-electron microscopy with particular focus on eukaryotic RNA polymerases and their pre-initiation complexes, but also chromatin remodelers and epigenetic regulators.

The nuclear actin-containing Arp8 module is a linker DNA sensor driving INO80 chromatin remodeling. Nat Struct Mol Biol 2018; 25:823-832. [PMID: 30177756 DOI: 10.1038/s41594-018-0115-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2018] [Accepted: 07/17/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Nuclear actin (N-actin) and actin-related proteins (Arps) are critical components of several chromatin modulating complexes, including the chromatin remodeler INO80, but their function is largely elusive. Here, we report the crystal structure of the 180-kDa Arp8 module of Saccharomyces cerevisiae INO80 and establish its role in recognition of extranucleosomal linker DNA. Arp8 engages N-actin in a manner distinct from that of other actin-fold proteins and thereby specifies recruitment of the Arp4-N-actin heterodimer to a segmented scaffold of the helicase-SANT-associated (HSA) domain of Ino80. The helical HSA domain spans over 120 Å and provides an extended binding platform for extranucleosomal entry DNA that is required for nucleosome sliding and genome-wide nucleosome positioning. Together with the recent cryo-electron microscopy structure of INO80Core-nucleosome complex, our findings suggest an allosteric mechanism by which INO80 senses 40-bp linker DNA to conduct highly processive chromatin remodeling.

RPAP3 provides a flexible scaffold for coupling HSP90 to the human R2TP co-chaperone complex. Nat Commun 2018; 9:1501. [PMID: 29662061 PMCID: PMC5902453 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-03942-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2017] [Accepted: 03/21/2018] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
The R2TP/Prefoldin-like co-chaperone, in concert with HSP90, facilitates assembly and cellular stability of RNA polymerase II, and complexes of PI3-kinase-like kinases such as mTOR. However, the mechanism by which this occurs is poorly understood. Here we use cryo-EM and biochemical studies on the human R2TP core (RUVBL1–RUVBL2–RPAP3–PIH1D1) which reveal the distinctive role of RPAP3, distinguishing metazoan R2TP from the smaller yeast equivalent. RPAP3 spans both faces of a single RUVBL ring, providing an extended scaffold that recruits clients and provides a flexible tether for HSP90. A 3.6 Å cryo-EM structure reveals direct interaction of a C-terminal domain of RPAP3 and the ATPase domain of RUVBL2, necessary for human R2TP assembly but absent from yeast. The mobile TPR domains of RPAP3 map to the opposite face of the ring, associating with PIH1D1, which mediates client protein recruitment. Thus, RPAP3 provides a flexible platform for bringing HSP90 into proximity with diverse client proteins. The R2TP/PFDL co-chaperone facilitates assembly of RNA polymerase II and PI3-kinase-like kinases such as mTOR by a so far unknown mechanism. Here authors provide the cryo-EM structure of human R2TP, which shows how RPAP3 serves as a flexible platform to recruit HSP90 to diverse client proteins.

Structural basis for ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling by the INO80 complex. Nature 2018; 556:386-390. [PMID: 29643509 PMCID: PMC6071913 DOI: 10.1038/s41586-018-0029-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 148] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2017] [Accepted: 02/16/2018] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
DNA in the eukaryotic nucleus is packaged in the form of nucleosomes, ~147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around a histone protein octamer. The position and histone composition of nucleosomes is governed by ATP dependent chromatin remodelers1–3 such as the 15 subunit INO80 complex4. INO80 regulates gene expression, DNA repair and replication by sliding nucleosomes, exchanging histone H2A.Z with H2A, and positioning +1 and -1 nucleosomes at promoter DNA5–8. A structure and mechanism for these remodeling reactions is lacking. Here we report the cryo-electron microscopy structure at 4.3Å resolution, with parts at 3.7Å, of an evolutionary conserved core INO80 complex from Chaetomium thermophilum bound to a nucleosome. INO80core cradles one entire gyre of the nucleosome through multivalent DNA and histone contacts. A Rvb1/2 AAA+ ATPase hetero-hexamer is an assembly scaffold for the complex and acts as stator for the motor and nucleosome gripping subunits. The Swi2/Snf2 ATPase motor binds to SHL-6, unwraps ~15 base pairs, disrupts the H2A:DNA contacts and is poised to pump entry DNA into the nucleosome. Arp5-Ies6 grip SHL-2/-3 acting as counter grip for the motor on the other side of the H2A/H2B dimer. The Arp5 insertion domain forms a grappler element that binds the nucleosome dyad, connects the Arp5 core and entry DNA over a distance of ~90Å and packs against histone H2A/H2B near the acidic patch. Our structure together with biochemical data8 suggest a unified mechanism for nucleosome sliding and histone editing by INO80. The motor pumps entry DNA across H2A/H2B against Arp5 and the grappler, sliding nucleosomes as a ratchet. Transient exposure of H2A/H2B by the motor and differential recognition of H2A.Z and H2A may regulate histone exchange during translocation.

Abstract
Access to DNA within nucleosomes is required for a variety of processes in cells including transcription, replication and repair. Consequently, cells encode multiple systems that remodel nucleosomes. These complexes can be simple, involving one or a few protein subunits, or more complicated multi-subunit machines 1 . Biochemical studies2-4 have placed the motor domains of several chromatin remodellers in the superhelical location 2 region of the nucleosome. Structural studies of yeast Chd1 and Snf2-a subunit in the complex with the capacity to remodel the structure of chromatin (RSC)-in complex with nucleosomes5-7 have provided insights into the basic mechanism of nucleosome sliding performed by these complexes. However, how larger, multi-subunit remodelling complexes such as INO80 interact with nucleosomes and how remodellers carry out functions such as nucleosome sliding 8 , histone exchange 9 and nucleosome spacing10-12 remain poorly understood. Although some remodellers work as monomers 13 , others work as highly cooperative dimers11, 14, 15. Here we present the structure of the human INO80 chromatin remodeller with a bound nucleosome, which reveals that INO80 interacts with nucleosomes in a previously undescribed manner: the motor domains are located on the DNA at the entry point to the nucleosome, rather than at superhelical location 2. The ARP5-IES6 module of INO80 makes additional contacts on the opposite side of the nucleosome. This arrangement enables the histone H3 tails of the nucleosome to have a role in the regulation of the activities of the INO80 motor domain-unlike in other characterized remodellers, for which H4 tails have been shown to regulate the motor domains.
