Study: The ACF chromatin remodeling complex is essential for Polycomb repression
show Abstracthide Abstract
Establishing and maintaining appropriate gene repression is critical for the health and development of multicellular organisms. Histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) methylation is a chromatin modification associated with repressed facultative heterochromatin, but the mechanism of repression remains unclear. We used a forward genetic approach to identify novel genes involved in transcriptional silencing of H3K27 methylated chromatin in the filamentous fungus, Neurospora crassa. We found crf4-1Iswi and crf4-2Itc1/Acf1 are required for repression of a subset of H3K27 methylated genes and that their protein products interact to form an ACF-like chromatin remodeling complex. This N. crassa ACF-like complex is promiscuous, yet can target facultative heterochromatin, where it is responsible for pulling the +1 nucleosome in the 5' direction. H3K27 methylated genes that are up-regulated when crf4-1Iswi or crf4-2Itc1/Acf1 are deleted show a downstream shift of the +1 nucleosome suggesting that proper nucleosome positioning is important for repression of facultative heterochromatin. Overall design: MNase-seq, H3K27 methylation ChIP-seq, RNA-seq and DamID with Neurospora crassa.

Strategy: ChIP-Seq

Selection: ChIP
Layout: SINGLE
Construction protocol: Lysates were cleared by centrifugation and 1/20th input was saved. H3K27me2/3 antibody was added (Active Motif, 2uL) and samples were rotated overnight at 4oC. The next day, equilibrated Protein A/G agarose (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was added to bind the antibody, incubated for 3 hours at 4oC, and washed twice in cold ChIP Lysis buffer, once with ChIP Lysis buffer + 0.5M NaCl, once with LiCl wash buffer (10mM Tris pH 8.0, 250mM LiCl, 1mM EDTA, 0.5% NP40), and DNA/protein was eluted with TES buffer (50mM Tris pH 8.0, 10mM EDTA, 1% SDS) and incubated at 65oC. Samples (IP and input) were decrosslinked at 65oC overnight. The next day, samples were proteinase K treated for 2 hours at 50oC, and DNA was purified using the Qiagen MinElute PCR purification kit and eluted in 30 μl of water. Approximately 10 ng of DNA was used to generate ChIP-Seq libraries. Each library was prepared using the NEB Next DNALibrary Prep Kit for Illumina according to the manufacturer's instructions. AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter A63881) were used for size selection of ~200-800 bp fragments. Final libraries were PCR-amplified using one cycle at 98 °C for 30 sec, 10 cycles at 98 °C for 10 sec, 60 °C for 30 sec and 72 °C for 30 sec and a final extension at 72 °C for 5 min.
