G-quadruplexes (G4s) are four-stranded helical structures that regulate several nuclear processes, including gene expression and telomere maintenance. We observed that G4s are located in GC-rich (euchromatin) regions and outside the fibrillarin-positive compartment of nucleoli. Genomic regions around G4s were preferentially H3K9 acetylated and H3K9 dimethylated, but H3K9me3 rarely decorated G4 structures. We additionally observed the variability in the number of G4s in selected human and mouse cell lines. We found the highest number of G4s in human embryonic stem cells. We observed the highest degree of colocalization between G4s and transcription factories, positive on the phosphorylated form of RNA polymerase II (RNAP II). Similarly, a high colocalization rate was between G4s and nuclear speckles, enriched in pre-mRNA splicing factor SC-35. PML bodies, the replication protein SMD1, and Cajal bodies colocalized with G4s to a lesser extent. Thus, G4 structures seem to appear mainly in nuclear compartments transcribed via RNAP II, and pre-mRNA is spliced via the SC-35 protein. However, α-amanitin, an inhibitor of RNAP II, did not affect colocalization between G4s and transcription factories as well as G4s and SC-35-positive domains. In addition, irradiation by γ-rays did not change a mutual link between G4s and DNA repair proteins (G4s/γH2AX, G4s/53BP1, and G4s/MDC1), accumulated into DNA damage foci. Described characteristics of G4s seem to be the manifestation of pronounced G4s stability that is likely maintained not only via a high-order organization of these structures but also by a specific histone signature, including H3K9me2, responsible for chromatin compaction.

Human heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) is a key factor in heterochromatin formation and maintenance. Its chromo-shadow domain (CSD) homodimerizes, and the HP1 dimer acts as a hub, transiently interacting with diverse binding partner (BP) proteins. We analyze atomistic details of interactions of the HP1γ(CSD) dimer with one of its targets, the histone H3 N-terminal tail, using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The goal is to complement the available X-ray crystallography data and unravel potential dynamic effects in the molecular recognition. Our results suggest that HP1(CSD)-BP recognition involves structural dynamics of both partners, including structural communication between adjacent binding pockets that may fine-tune the sequence recognition. For example, HP1 Trp174 sidechain substates may help in distinguishing residues bound in the conserved HP1(CSD) ±2 hydrophobic pockets. Further, there is intricate competition between the binding of negatively charged HP1 C-terminal extension and solvent anions near the ±2 hydrophobic pockets, which is also influenced by the BP sequence. Phosphorylated H3 Y41 can interact with the same site. We also analyze the ability of several pair-additive force fields to describe the protein-protein interface. ff14SB and ff99SB-ILDN* provide the closest correspondence with the crystallographic model. The ff15ipq local dynamics are somewhat less consistent with details of the experimental structure, while larger perturbations of the interface commonly occur in CHARMM36m simulations. The balance of some interactions, mainly around the anion binding site, also depends on the ion parameters. Some differences between the simulated and experimental structures are attributable to crystal packing.

Repair of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) is a very important nuclear process due to the most active transcription of ribosomal genes. Proper repair of rDNA is required for physiological biogenesis of ribosomes. Here, we analyzed the epigenetics of the DNA damage response in a nucleolar compartment, thus in the ribosomal genes studied in nonirradiated and UVA-irradiated mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). We found that the promoter of ribosomal genes is not abundant on H4K20me2, but it is densely occupied by H4K20me3. Ribosomal genes, regulated via UBF1/2 proteins, were characterized by an interaction between UBF1/2 and H4K20me2/me3. This interaction was strengthened by UVA irradiation that additionally causes a focal accumulation of H4K20me3 in the nucleolus. No interaction has been found between UBF1/2 and H3K9me3. Interestingly, UVA irradiation decreases the levels of H3K9me3 and H4K20me3 at 28S rDNA. Altogether, the UVA light affects the epigenetic status of ribosomal genes at 28S rDNA and strengthens an interaction between UBF1/2 proteins and H4K20me2/me3.

Histone posttranslational modifications regulate diverse nuclear functions, including DNA repair. Here, we use mass spectrometry, western blotting, immunohistochemistry and advanced confocal microscopy in order to show radiation-specific changes in the histone signature. We studied wild-type mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and mESCs with a depletion of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1), which plays a role in DNA repair. Irradiation by γ-rays increased the S139 phosphorylation of histone H2AX but reduced the level of the H3K9-R17 peptide, which contains S10 phosphorylation (H3S10ph). On an individual cellular level, H3S10ph was low in highly γH2AX-positive UV laser-induced DNA lesions, and this nuclear distribution pattern was not changed by HDAC1 depletion. Despite this fact, spontaneous γH2AX-positive DNA lesions colocalized with large H3S10ph-positive nuclear bodies that appear in the G2 phase of the cell cycle. Similarly, by FLIM-FRET analysis, we observed an interaction between H3S10ph and γH2AX in the G2 phase. However, this interaction was reduced when cells were exposed to γ-rays. A mutual link between H3S10ph and γH2AX was not observed in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Together, our data show that despite the fact that H3S10ph is not directly involved in DNA repair, a decrease in H3S10 phosphorylation and weakened interaction between H3S10ph and γH2AX is a result of radiation-induced damage of the genome. In this case, γ-irradiation also decreased the number of cells in the G1 phase, characterized by no interaction between H3S10ph and γH2AX., (Copyright © 2018 Elsevier B.V. and Société Française de Biochimie et Biologie Moléculaire (SFBBM).

Methylation of histones H4 at lysine 20 position (H4K20me), which is functional in DNA repair, represents a binding site for the 53BP1 protein. Here, we show a radiation-induced increase in the level of H4K20me3 while the levels of H4K20me1 and H4K20me2 remained intact. H4K20me3 was significantly pronounced at DNA lesions in only the G1 phase of the cycle, while this histone mark was reduced in very late S and G2 phases when PCNA was recruited to locally micro-irradiated chromatin. H4K20me3 was diminished in locally irradiated Suv39h1/h2 double knockout (dn) fibroblasts, and the same phenomenon was observed for H3K9me3 and its binding partner, the HP1β protein. Immunoprecipitation showed the existence of an interaction between H3K9me3-53BP1 and H4K20me3-53BP1; however, HP1β did not interact with 53BP1. Together, H3K9me3 and H4K20me3 represent epigenetic markers that are important for the function of the 53BP1 protein in non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) repair. The very late S phase represents the cell cycle breakpoint when a DDR function of the H4K20me3-53BP1 complex is abrogated due to recruitment of the PCNA protein and other DNA repair factors of homologous recombination to DNA lesions.

Cell differentiation into cardiomyocytes requires activation of differentiation-specific genes and epigenetic factors that contribute to these physiological processes. This study is focused on the in vitro differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) induced into cardiomyocytes. The effects of clinically promising inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACi) on mESC cardiomyogenesis and on explanted embryonic hearts were also analyzed. HDAC1 depletion caused early beating of cardiomyocytes compared with those of the wild-type (wt) counterpart. Moreover, the adherence of embryonic bodies (EBs) was reduced in HDAC1 double knockout (dn) mESCs. The most important finding was differentiation-specific H4 deacetylation observed during cardiomyocyte differentiation of wt mESCs, while H4 deacetylation was weakened in HDAC1-depleted cells induced to the cardiac pathway. Analysis of the effect of HDACi showed that Trichostatin A (TSA) is a strong hyperacetylating agent, especially in wt mESCs, but only SAHA reduced the size of the beating areas in EBs that originated from HDAC1 dn mESCs. Additionally, explanted embryonic hearts (e15) responded to treatment with HDACi: all of the tested HDACi (TSA, SAHA, VPA) increased the levels of H3K9ac, H4ac, H4K20ac, and pan-acetylated lysines in embryonic hearts. This observation shows that explanted tissue can be maintained in a hyperacetylation state several hours after excision, which appears to be useful information from the view of transplantation strategy and the maintenance of gene upregulation via acetylation in tissue intended for transplantation., Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interest

Although histone acetylation is one of the most widely studied epigenetic modifications, there is still a lack of information regarding how the acetylome is regulated during brain development and pathophysiological processes. We demonstrate that the embryonic brain (E15) is characterized by an increase in H3K9 acetylation as well as decreases in the levels of HDAC1 and HDAC3. Moreover, experimental induction of H3K9 hyperacetylation led to the overexpression of NCAM in the embryonic cortex and depletion of Sox2 in the subventricular ependyma, which mimicked the differentiation processes. Inducing differentiation in HDAC1-deficient mouse ESCs resulted in early H3K9 deacetylation, Sox2 downregulation, and enhanced astrogliogenesis, whereas neuro-differentiation was almost suppressed. Neuro-differentiation of (wt) ESCs was characterized by H3K9 hyperacetylation that was associated with HDAC1 and HDAC3 depletion. Conversely, the hippocampi of schizophrenia-like animals showed H3K9 deacetylation that was regulated by an increase in both HDAC1 and HDAC3. The hippocampi of schizophrenia-like brains that were treated with the cannabinoid receptor-1 inverse antagonist AM251 expressed H3K9ac at the level observed in normal brains. Together, the results indicate that co-regulation of H3K9ac by HDAC1 and HDAC3 is important to both embryonic brain development and neuro-differentiation as well as the pathophysiology of a schizophrenia-like phenotype., (© 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.)

Background Information: The DNA damage response is a fundamental, well-regulated process that occurs in the genome to recognise DNA lesions. Here, we studied kinetics of proteins involved in DNA repair pathways and their recruitment to DNA lesions during the cell cycle. In non-irradiated and irradiated cells, we analysed the distribution pattern and spatiotemporal dynamics of γH2AX, 53BP1, BMI1, MDC1, NBS1, PCNA, coilin and BRCA1 proteins., Results: We observed that spontaneous and irradiation-induced foci (IRIF) demonstrated a high abundance of phosphorylated H2AX, which was consistent with 53BP1 and BMI1 protein accumulation. However, NBS1 and MDC1 proteins were recruited to nuclear bodies (NBs) to a lesser extent. Irradiation by γ-rays significantly increased the number of 53BP1- and γH2AX-positive IRIF, but cell cycle-dependent differences were only observed for γH2AX-positive foci in both non-irradiated and γ-irradiated cells. In non-irradiated cells, the G2 phase was characterised by an increased number of spontaneous γH2AX-foci; this increase was more pronounced after γ-irradiation. Cells in G2 phase had the highest number of γH2AX-positive foci. Similarly, γ-irradiation increased the number of NBS1-positive NBs only in G2 phase. Moreover, NBS1 accumulated in nucleoli after γ-irradiation showed the slowest recovery after photobleaching. Analysis of protein accumulation kinetics at locally induced DNA lesions showed that in HeLa cells, BMI1, PCNA and coilin were rapidly recruited to the lesions, 10-15 s after UVA-irradiation, whereas among the other proteins studied, BRCA1 demonstrated the slowest recruitment: BRCA1 appeared at the lesion 20 min after local micro-irradiation by UVA laser., Conclusion: We show that the kinetics of the accumulation of selected DNA repair-related proteins is protein specific at locally induced DNA lesions, and that the formation of γH2AX- and NBS1-positive foci, but not 53BP1-positive NBs, is cell cycle dependent in HeLa cells. Moreover, γH2AX is the most striking protein present not only at DNA lesions, but also spreading out in their vicinity., Significance: Our conclusions highlight the significant role of the spatiotemporal dynamics of DNA repair-related proteins and their specific assembly/disassembly at DNA lesions, which can be cell type- and cell cycle dependent., (© 2015 Société Française des Microscopies and Société de Biologie Cellulaire de France.

We examined the levels and distribution of post-translationally modified histones and protamines in human sperm. Using western blot immunoassay, immunofluorescence, mass spectrometry (MS), and FLIM-FRET approaches, we analyzed the status of histone modifications and the protamine P2. Among individual samples, we observed variability in the levels of H3K9me1, H3K9me2, H3K27me3, H3K36me3, and H3K79me1, but the level of acetylated (ac) histones H4 was relatively stable in the sperm head fractions, as demonstrated by western blot analysis. Sperm heads with lower levels of P2 exhibited lower levels of H3K9ac, H3K9me1, H3K27me3, H3K36me3, and H3K79me1. A very strong correlation was observed between the levels of P2 and H3K9me2. FLIM-FRET analysis additionally revealed that acetylated histones H4 are not only parts of sperm chromatin but also appear in a non-integrated form. Intriguingly, H4ac and H3K27me3 were detected in sperm tail fractions via western blot analysis. An appearance of specific histone H3 and H4 acetylation and H3 methylation in sperm tail fractions was also confirmed by both LC-MS/MS and MALDI-TOF MS analysis. Taken together, these data indicate that particular post-translational modifications of histones are uniquely distributed in human sperm, and this distribution varies among individuals and among the sperm of a single individual., (© 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.)

Post-translational modification of histones is fundamental to the regulation of basic nuclear processes and subsequent cellular events, including differentiation. In this study, we analyzed acetylated forms of histones H2A, H2B, and H4 during induced differentiation in mouse (mESCs) and human (hESCs) embryonic stem cells and during induced enterocytic differentiation of colon cancer cells in vitro. Endoderm-like differentiation of mESCs induced by retinoic acid and enterocytic differentiation induced by histone deacetylase inhibitor sodium butyrate were accompanied by increased mono-, di-, and tri-acetylation of histone H2B and a pronounced increase in di- and tri-acetylation of histone H4. In enterocytes, mono-acetylation of histone H2A also increased and tetra-acetylation of histone H4 appeared only after induction of this differentiation pathway. During differentiation of hESCs, we observed increased mono-acetylation and decreased tri-acetylation of H2B. Mono-, di-, and tri-acetylation of H4 were reduced, manifested by a significant increase in nonacetylated H4 histones. Levels of acetylated histones increased during induced differentiation in mESCs and during histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor-induced enterocytic differentiation, whereas differentiation of human ESCs was associated with reduced acetylation of histones H2B and H4.

Apoptotic bodies are the most condensed form of chromatin. In general, chromatin structure and function are mostly dictated by histone post-translational modifications. Thus, we have analyzed the histone signature in apoptotic cells, characterized by pronounced chromatin condensation. Here, H2B mono-acetylation, and H3K9 and H4 acetylation was significantly decreased in apoptotic cells, which maintained a high level of H3K9 methylation. This phenotype was independent of p53 function and distinct levels of anti-apoptotic Bcl2 protein. Interestingly, after etoposide treatment of leukemia and multiple myeloma cells, H3K9 and H4 hypoacetylation was accompanied by increased H3K9me2, but not H3K9me1 or H3K9me3. In adherent mouse fibroblasts, a high level of H3K9me3 and histone deacetylation in apoptotic bodies was likely responsible for the pronounced (∼40%) recovery of GFP-HP1α and GFP-HP1β after photobleaching. HP1 mobility in apoptotic cells appeared to be unique because limited exchange after photobleaching was observed for other epigenetically important proteins, including GFP-JMJD2b histone demethylase (∼10% fluorescence recovery) or Polycomb group-related GFP-BMI1 protein (∼20% fluorescence recovery). These findings imply a novel fact that only certain subset of proteins in apoptotic bodies is dynamic., (Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)

Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) maintain their pluripotency through high expression of pluripotency-related genes. Here, we show that differing levels of Oct4, Nanog, and c-myc proteins among the individual cells of mouse ESC (mESC) colonies and fluctuations in these levels do not disturb mESC pluripotency. Cells with strong expression of Oct4 had low levels of Nanog and c-myc proteins and vice versa. In addition, cells with high levels of Nanog tended to occupy interior regions of mESC colonies. In contrast, peripherally positioned cells within colonies had dense H3K27-trimethylation, especially at the nuclear periphery. We also observed distinct levels of endogenous and exogenous Oct4 in particular cell cycle phases. The highest levels of Oct4 occurred in G2 phase, which correlated with the pKi-67 nuclear pattern. Moreover, the Oct4 protein resided on mitotic chromosomes. We suggest that there must be an endogenous mechanism that prevents the induction of spontaneous differentiation, despite fluctuations in protein levels within an mESC colony. Based on the results presented here, it is likely that cells within a colony support each other in the maintenance of pluripotency.

Here, we would like to point out important milestones in the study of nuclear radial positioning and gene expression during differentiation processes. In addition, changes in the histone signature that significantly precede various differentiation pathways are reviewed. We address the regulatory functions of chromatin structure and histone epigenetic marks that give rise to gene expression patterns that are specific to distinct differentiation pathways. The functional relevance of nuclear architecture and epigenetic traits is preferentially discussed in the context of in vitro induced enterocytic differentiation and pluripotent or differentiated embryonic stem cells. We especially focus on the recapitulation of nuclear events that have been characterized for some genes and proto-oncogenes that are important for development and differentiation.

Histone variants and their epigenetic modifications determine genome function, particularly transcription. However, whether regulation of gene expression can be influenced by nuclear organization or vice versa is not completely clear. Here, we analyzed the effect of epigenetic changes induced by a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) on the nuclear radial rearrangement of select genomic regions and chromosomes. The HDACi, sodium butyrate (NaBt), induced differentiation of human adenocarcinoma HT29 cells as well as a genome-wide increase in H3K9 acetylation. Three-dimensional analysis of nuclear radial distributions revealed that this increase in H3K9 acetylation was often associated with a repositioning of select loci and chromosomes toward the nuclear center. On the other hand, many centromeres resided sites more toward the nuclear periphery, similar to sites occupied by chromosome X. In more than two-thirds of events analyzed, central nuclear positioning correlated with a high level of H3K9 acetylation, while more peripheral positioning within interphase nuclei correlated with a lower level of acetylation. This was observed for the gene-rich chromosomes 17 and 19, TP53, and CCND1 genes as well as for gene-poor chromosome 18, APC gene, regions of low transcriptional activity (anti-RIDGEs), and the relatively transcriptionally less active chromosome X. These results are consistent with a role for epigenetic histone modifications in governing the nuclear radial positioning of genomic regions during differentiation.

Epigenetic marks are important factors regulating the pluripotency and differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). In this study, we analyzed H3K9 acetylation, an epigenetic mark associated with transcriptionally active chromatin, during endoderm-like differentiation of hESCs. ChIP-on-chip analysis revealed that differentiation results in a genome-wide decrease in promoter H3K9 acetylation. Among the 24,659 promoters analyzed, only 117 are likely to be involved in pluripotency, while 25 acetylated promoters are likely to be responsible for endoderm-like differentiation. In pluripotent hESCs, the chromosomes with the highest absolute levels of H3K9 acetylation are chromosomes 1, 6, 2, 17, 11, and 12 (listed in order of decreasing acetylation). Chromosomes 17, 19, 11, 20, 22, and 12 are the most prone to differentiation-related changes (both increased acetylation and deacetylation). When chromosome size (in Mb) was accounted for, the highest H3K9 acetylation levels were found on chromosome 19, 17, 6, 12, 11, and 1, and the greatest differentiation-associated decreases in H3K9 acetylation occurred on chromosomes 19, 17, 11, 12, 16, and 1. The gene density and size of individual chromosomes were strongly correlated with the levels of H3K9 acetylation. Our analyses point to chromosomes 11, 12, 17, and 19 as being critical for hESC pluripotency and endoderm-like differentiation. J. Cell. Physiol. 219: 677-687, 2009. (c) 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Epigenetic modifications, such as acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation, ubiquitination, and ADP ribosylation, of the highly conserved core histones, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4, influence the genetic potential of DNA. The enormous regulatory potential of histone modification is illustrated in the vast array of epigenetic markers found throughout the genome. More than the other types of histone modification, acetylation and methylation of specific lysine residues on N-terminal histone tails are fundamental for the formation of chromatin domains, such as euchromatin, and facultative and constitutive heterochromatin. In addition, the modification of histones can cause a region of chromatin to undergo nuclear compartmentalization and, as such, specific epigenetic markers are non-randomly distributed within interphase nuclei. In this review, we summarize the principles behind epigenetic compartmentalization and the functional consequences of chromatin arrangement within interphase nuclei.

To study 3D nuclear distributions of epigenetic histone modifications such as H3(K9) acetylation, H3(K4) dimethylation, H3(K9) dimethylation, and H3(K27) trimethylation, and of histone methyltransferase Suv39H1, we used advanced image analysis methods, combined with Nipkow disk confocal microscopy. Total fluorescence intensity and distributions of fluorescently labelled proteins were analyzed in formaldehyde-fixed interphase nuclei. Our data showed reduced fluorescent signals of H3(K9) acetylation and H3(K4) dimethylation (di-me) at the nuclear periphery, while di-meH3(K9) was also abundant in chromatin regions closely associated with the nuclear envelope. Little overlapping (intermingling) was observed for di-meH3(K4) and H3(K27) trimethylation (tri-me), and for di-meH3(K9) and Suv39H1. The histone modifications studied were absent in the nucleolar compartment with the exception of H3(K9) dimethylation that was closely associated with perinucleolar regions which are formed by centromeres of acrocentric chromosomes. Using immunocytochemistry, no di-meH3(K4) but only dense di-meH3(K9) was found for the human acrocentric chromosomes 14 and 22. The active X chromosome was observed to be partially acetylated, while the inactive X was more condensed, located in a very peripheral part of the interphase nuclei, and lacked H3(K9) acetylation. Our results confirmed specific interphase patterns of histone modifications within the interphase nuclei as well as within their chromosome territories.

The effects of the histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) trichostatin A (TSA) and sodium butyrate (NaBt) were studied in A549, HT29 and FHC human cell lines. Global histone hyperacetylation, leading to decondensation of interphase chromatin, was characterized by an increase in H3(K9) and H3(K4) dimethylation and H3(K9) acetylation. The levels of all isoforms of heterochromatin protein, HP1, were reduced after HDAC inhibition. The observed changes in the protein levels were accompanied by changes in their interphase patterns. In control cells, H3(K9) acetylation and H3(K4) dimethylation were substantially reduced to a thin layer at the nuclear periphery, whereas TSA and NaBt caused the peripheral regions to become intensely acetylated at H3(K9) and dimethylated at H3(K4). The dispersed pattern of H3(K9) dimethylation was stable even at the nuclear periphery of HDACi-treated cells. After TSA and NaBt treatment, the HP1 proteins were repositioned more internally in the nucleus, being closely associated with interchromatin compartments, while centromeric heterochromatin was relocated closer to the nuclear periphery. These findings strongly suggest dissociation of HP1 proteins from peripherally located centromeres in a hyperacetylated and H3(K4) dimethylated environment. We conclude that inhibition of histone deacetylases caused dynamic reorganization of chromatin in parallel with changes in its epigenetic modifications.

CARM1 interacts with numerous transcription factors to mediate cellular processes, especially gene expression. This is important for the maintenance of ESC pluripotency or intervention to tumorigenesis. Here, we studied epigenomic effects of two potential CARM1 modulators: an activator (EML159) and an inhibitor (ellagic acid dihydrate, EA). We examined nuclear morphology in human and mouse embryonic stem cells (hESCs, mESCs), as well as in iPS cells. The CARM1 modulators did not function similarly in all cell types. EA decreased the levels of the pluripotency markers, OCT4 and NANOG, particularly in iPSCs, whereas the levels of these proteins increased after EML159 treatment. EML159 treatment of mouse ESCs led to decreased levels of OCT4 and NANOG, which was accompanied by an increased level of Endo-A. The same trend was observed for NANOG and Endo-A in hESCs affected by EML159. Interestingly, EA mainly changed epigenetic features of nucleoli because a high level of arginine asymmetric di-methylation in the nucleoli of hESCs was reduced after EA treatment. ChIP-PCR of ribosomal genes confirmed significantly reduced levels of H3R17me2a, in both the promoter region of ribosomal genes and rDNA encoding 28S rRNA, after EA addition. Moreover, EA treatment changed the nuclear pattern of AgNORs (silver-stained nucleolus organizer regions) in all cell types studied. In EA-treated ESCs, AgNOR pattern was similar to the pattern of AgNORs after inhibition of RNA pol I by actinomycin D. Together, inhibitory effect of EA on arginine methylation and effect on related morphological parameters was especially observed in compartment of nucleoli. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
