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
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.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 258:129041.

Abstract
Chromatin remodelers are important in maintaining the dynamic chromatin state in eukaryotic cells, which is essential for epigenetic regulation. Among the remodelers, the multi-subunits complex INO80 plays crucial roles in transcriptional regulation. However, current knowledge of chromatin regulation of the core subunit Ino80 on stress adaptation remains mysterious. Here we revealed that overexpressing the chromatin remodeler Ino80 elevated tolerance to multiple stresses in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Analyses of differential chromatin accessibility and global transcription levels revealed an enrichment of genes involved in NCR (nitrogen catabolite repression) under acetic acid stress. We demonstrated that Ino80 overexpression reduced the histone H3 occupancy in the promoter region of the glutamate dehydrogenase gene GDH2 and the allantoinase gene DAL1. Consistently, the decreased occupancy of nucleosome was revealed in the Ino80-inactivation mutant. Further analyses showed that Ino80 was recruited to the specific DNA locus in the promoter region of GDH2. Consistently, Ino80 overexpression facilitated the utilization of non-preferred nitrogen source to enhance ethanol yield under prolonged acetic acid stress. These results demonstrate that Ino80 plays a crucial role in coordinating carbon and nitrogen metabolism during stress adaptation.

Stephan OOH. Effects of environmental stress factors on the actin cytoskeleton of fungi and plants: Ionizing radiation and ROS. Cytoskeleton (Hoboken) 2023; 80:330-355. [PMID: 37066976 DOI: 10.1002/cm.21758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/18/2023]
Abstract
Actin is an abundant and multifaceted protein in eukaryotic cells that has been detected in the cytoplasm as well as in the nucleus. In cooperation with numerous interacting accessory-proteins, monomeric actin (G-actin) polymerizes into microfilaments (F-actin) which constitute ubiquitous subcellular higher order structures. Considering the extensive spatial dimensions and multifunctionality of actin superarrays, the present study analyses the issue if and to what extent environmental stress factors, specifically ionizing radiation (IR) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), affect the cellular actin-entity. In that context, this review particularly surveys IR-response of fungi and plants. It examines in detail which actin-related cellular constituents and molecular pathways are influenced by IR and related ROS. This comprehensive survey concludes that the general integrity of the total cellular actin cytoskeleton is a requirement for IR-tolerance. Actin's functions in genome organization and nuclear events like chromatin remodeling, DNA-repair, and transcription play a key role. Beyond that, it is highly significant that the macromolecular cytoplasmic and cortical actin-frameworks are affected by IR as well. In response to IR, actin-filament bundling proteins (fimbrins) are required to stabilize cables or patches. In addition, the actin-associated factors mediating cellular polarity are essential for IR-survivability. Moreover, it is concluded that a cellular homeostasis system comprising ROS, ROS-scavengers, NADPH-oxidases, and the actin cytoskeleton plays an essential role here. Consequently, besides the actin-fraction which controls crucial genome-integrity, also the portion which facilitates orderly cellular transport and polarized growth has to be maintained in order to survive IR.

Abstract
The CK1 family are conserved serine/threonine kinases with numerous substrates and cellular functions. The fission yeast CK1 orthologues Hhp1 and Hhp2 were first characterized as regulators of DNA repair, but the mechanism(s) by which CK1 activity promotes DNA repair had not been investigated. Here, we found that deleting Hhp1 and Hhp2 or inhibiting CK1 catalytic activities in yeast or in human cells activated the DNA damage checkpoint due to persistent double-strand breaks (DSBs). The primary pathways to repair DSBs, homologous recombination and non-homologous end joining, were both less efficient in cells lacking Hhp1 and Hhp2 activity. In order to understand how Hhp1 and Hhp2 promote DSB repair, we identified new substrates using quantitative phosphoproteomics. We confirmed that Arp8, a component of the INO80 chromatin remodeling complex, is a bona fide substrate of Hhp1 and Hhp2 that is important for DSB repair. Our data suggest that Hhp1 and Hhp2 facilitate DSB repair by phosphorylating multiple substrates, including Arp8.

Abstract
DPCD is a protein that may play a role in cilia formation and whose absence leads to primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), a rare disease caused by impairment of ciliated cells. Except for high-throughput studies that identified DPCD as a possible RUVBL1 (R1) and RUVBL2 (R2) partner, no in-depth cellular, biochemical, and structural investigation involving DPCD have been reported so far. R1 and R2 proteins are ubiquitous highly conserved AAA+ family ATPases that assemble and mature a plethora of macromolecular complexes and are pivotal in numerous cellular processes, especially by guaranteeing a co-chaperoning function within R2TP or R2TP-like machineries. In the present study, we identified DPCD as a new R1R2 partner in vivo. We show that DPCD interacts directly with R1 and R2 in vitro and in cells. We characterized the physico-chemical properties of DPCD in solution and built a 3D model of DPCD. In addition, we used a variety of orthogonal biophysical techniques including small-angle X-ray scattering, structural mass spectrometry and electron microscopy to assess the molecular determinants of DPCD interaction with R1R2. Interestingly, DPCD disrupts the dodecameric state of R1R2 complex upon binding and this interaction occurs mainly via the DII domains of R1R2.

Abstract
ATP‐dependent chromatin remodeling complexes play important roles in many essential cellular processes, including transcription regulation, DNA replication, and repair. Evicting H2A.Z, a variant of histone H2A, from the promoter of hypha‐specific genes is required for hyphal formation in Candida albicans. However, the mechanism that regulates H2A.Z removal during hyphal formation remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that Ino80, the core catalytic subunit of the INO80 complex, was recruited to hypha‐specific promoters during hyphal induction in Arp8 dependent manner and facilitated the removal of H2A.Z. Deleting INO80 or mutating the ATPase site of Ino80 impairs the expression of hypha‐specific genes (HSGs) and hyphal development. In addition, we showed that Ino80 was essential for the virulence of C. albicans during systemic infections in mice. Interestingly, Arp5, an INO80 complex‐specific component, acts in concert with Ino80 during DNA damage responses but is dispensable for hyphal induction. Our findings clarified that Ino80 was critical for hyphal development, DNA damage response, and pathogenesis in C. albicans.

A novel SNF2 ATPase complex in Trypanosoma brucei with a role in H2A.Z-mediated chromatin remodelling. PLoS Pathog 2022; 18:e1010514. [PMID: 35675371 PMCID: PMC9236257 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1010514] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2021] [Revised: 06/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
A cascade of histone acetylation events with subsequent incorporation of a histone H2A variant plays an essential part in transcription regulation in various model organisms. A key player in this cascade is the chromatin remodelling complex SWR1, which replaces the canonical histone H2A with its variant H2A.Z. Transcriptional regulation of polycistronic transcription units in the unicellular parasite Trypanosoma brucei has been shown to be highly dependent on acetylation of H2A.Z, which is mediated by the histone-acetyltransferase HAT2. The chromatin remodelling complex which mediates H2A.Z incorporation is not known and an SWR1 orthologue in trypanosomes has not yet been reported. In this study, we identified and characterised an SWR1-like remodeller complex in T. brucei that is responsible for Pol II-dependent transcriptional regulation. Bioinformatic analysis of potential SNF2 DEAD/Box helicases, the key component of SWR1 complexes, identified a 1211 amino acids-long protein that exhibits key structural characteristics of the SWR1 subfamily. Systematic protein-protein interaction analysis revealed the existence of a novel complex exhibiting key features of an SWR1-like chromatin remodeller. RNAi-mediated depletion of the ATPase subunit of this complex resulted in a significant reduction of H2A.Z incorporation at transcription start sites and a subsequent decrease of steady-state mRNA levels. Furthermore, depletion of SWR1 and RNA-polymerase II (Pol II) caused massive chromatin condensation. The potential function of several proteins associated with the SWR1-like complex and with HAT2, the key factor of H2A.Z incorporation, is discussed. Trypanosoma brucei is the causative agent of African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness) in humans and nagana in cattle. Its unusual genomic organisation featuring large polycistronic units requires a general mechanism of transcription initiation, because individual gene promoters are mostly absent. Despite the fact that the histone variant H2A.Z has previously been identified as a key player of transcription regulation, the complex responsible for correct H2A.Z incorporation at transcription start sites (TSS) remains elusive. In other eukaryotes, SWR1, a SNF2 ATPase-associated chromatin remodelling complex, is responsible for correct incorporation of this histone variant. This study identified a SWR1-like complex in T. brucei. Depletion of the SNF2 ATPase resulted in a reduction of H2A.Z incorporation at the TSS and decreased steady-state mRNA levels accompanied by chromatin condensation. In addition to the SWR1-like complex, we also identified a trypanosome-specific HAT2 complex that includes the histone acetyltransferases HAT2, a key player in the H2A.Z incorporation process. This complex has a trypanosome-specific composition that is different from the NuA4/TIP60 complex in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract
The critical role of the INO80 chromatin remodeling complex in transcription is commonly attributed to its nucleosome sliding activity. Here, we have found that INO80 prefers to mobilize hexasomes over nucleosomes. INO80's preference for hexasomes reaches up to ∼60 fold when flanking DNA overhangs approach ∼18-bp linkers in yeast gene bodies. Correspondingly, deletion of INO80 significantly affects the positions of hexasome-sized particles within yeast genes in vivo. Our results raise the possibility that INO80 promotes nucleosome sliding by dislodging an H2A-H2B dimer, thereby making a nucleosome transiently resemble a hexasome. We propose that this mechanism allows INO80 to rapidly mobilize nucleosomes at promoters and hexasomes within gene bodies. Rapid repositioning of hexasomes that are generated in the wake of transcription may mitigate spurious transcription. More generally, such versatility may explain how INO80 regulates chromatin architecture during the diverse processes of transcription, replication, and repair.

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.

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
Numerous chromatin remodeling enzymes position nucleosomes in eukaryotic cells. Aside from these factors, transcription, DNA sequence, and statistical positioning of nucleosomes also shape the nucleosome landscape. The precise contributions of these processes remain unclear due to their functional redundancy in vivo. By incisive genome engineering, we radically decreased their redundancy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The transcriptional machinery strongly disrupts evenly spaced nucleosomes. Proper nucleosome density and DNA sequence are critical for their biogenesis. The INO80 remodeling complex helps space nucleosomes in vivo and positions the first nucleosome over genes in an H2A.Z-independent fashion. INO80 requires its Arp8 subunit but unexpectedly not the Nhp10 module for spacing. Cells with irregularly spaced nucleosomes suffer from genotoxic stress including DNA damage, recombination and transpositions. We derive a model of the biogenesis of the nucleosome landscape and suggest that it evolved not only to regulate but also to protect the genome.

Abstract
Global warming poses a major threat to plant growth and crop production. In some plants, including Arabidopsis thaliana, elevated temperatures induce a series of morphological and developmental adjustments termed thermomorphogenesis, which facilitates plant cooling under high-temperature conditions. Plant thermal response is suppressed by histone variant H2A.Z. At warm temperatures, H2A.Z is evicted from nucleosomes at thermoresponsive genes, resulting in changes in their expression. However, the mechanisms that regulate H2A.Z eviction and subsequent transcriptional changes are largely unknown. Here, we show that the INO80 chromatin remodeling complex (INO80-C) promotes thermomorphogenesis and activates the expression of thermoresponsive and auxin-related genes. INO80-C associates with PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 4 (PIF4), a potent regulator of thermomorphogenesis, and mediates temperature-induced H2A.Z eviction at PIF4 targets. Moreover, INO80-C directly interacts with COMPASS-like and transcription elongation factors to promote active histone modification, histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation, and RNA polymerase II elongation, leading to the thermal induction of transcription. Notably, the transcription elongation factors SPT4 and SPT5 are required for H2A.Z eviction at PIF4 targets, suggesting the cooperation of INO80-C and transcription elongation in H2A.Z removal. Taken together, these results suggest that the (PIF4)-(INO80-C)-(COMPASS-like)-(transcription elongator) module controls plant thermal response, thereby establishing a link between H2A.Z eviction and active transcription.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Promoter-proximal pausing of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) is a critical step for the precise regulation of gene expression. Despite the apparent close relationship between promoter-proximal pausing and nucleosome, the role of chromatin remodeler governing this step has mainly remained elusive. RESULTS Here, we report highly confined RNAPII enrichments downstream of the transcriptional start site in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using PRO-seq experiments. This non-uniform distribution of RNAPII exhibits both similar and different characteristics with promoter-proximal pausing in Schizosaccharomyces pombe and metazoans. Interestingly, we find that Ino80p knockdown causes a significant upstream transition of promoter-proximal RNAPII for a subset of genes, relocating RNAPII from the main pausing site to the alternative pausing site. The proper positioning of RNAPII is largely dependent on nucleosome context. We reveal that the alternative pausing site is closely associated with the + 1 nucleosome, and nucleosome architecture around the main pausing site of these genes is highly phased. In addition, Ino80p knockdown results in an increase in fuzziness and a decrease in stability of the + 1 nucleosome. Furthermore, the loss of INO80 also leads to the shift of promoter-proximal RNAPII toward the alternative pausing site in mouse embryonic stem cells. CONCLUSIONS Based on our collective results, we hypothesize that the highly conserved chromatin remodeler Ino80p is essential in establishing intact RNAPII pausing during early transcription elongation in various organisms, from budding yeast to mouse.

Abstract
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most deleterious form of DNA damage and are repaired through non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) or homologous recombination (HR). Repair initiation, regulation and communication with signaling pathways require several histone-modifying and chromatin-remodeling complexes. In budding yeast, this involves three primary complexes: INO80-C, which is primarily associated with HR, SWR1-C, which promotes NHEJ, and RSC-C, which is involved in both pathways as well as the general DNA damage response. Here we identify ARP6 as a factor involved in DSB repair through an RSC-C-related pathway. The loss of ARP6 significantly reduces the NHEJ repair efficiency of linearized plasmids with cohesive ends, impairs the repair of chromosomal breaks, and sensitizes cells to DNA-damaging agents. Genetic interaction analysis indicates that ARP6, MRE11 and RSC-C function within the same pathway, and the overexpression of ARP6 rescues rsc2∆ and mre11∆ sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents. Double mutants of ARP6, and members of the INO80 and SWR1 complexes, cause a significant reduction in repair efficiency, suggesting that ARP6 functions independently of SWR1-C and INO80-C. These findings support a novel role for ARP6 in DSB repair that is independent of the SWR1 chromatin remodeling complex, through an apparent RSC-C and MRE11-associated DNA repair pathway.

Abstract
Cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) is a bacterial genotoxin that causes host cell cycle arrest and death. We previously employed a Saccharomyces cerevisiae model with inducible expression of the CDT catalytic subunit from Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, AaCdtB, and showed that a wide variety of host factors play a role in facilitating the activity of CdtB. Our observation that a yeast H2B mutant defective in chromatin condensation was partially resistant to CdtB implies that chromatin structure may affect CDT function. In this study, we identified host chromatin regulatory genes required for CdtB cytotoxicity. We found that the deletion of HTZ1 or certain subunits of SWR, INO80, and SIR complexes increased cellular resistance to CdtB. We hypothesized that CdtB may interact with Htz1 or the chromatin, but immunoprecipitation experiments failed to detect physical interaction between CdtB and Htz1 or the chromatin. However, we observed reduced nuclear localization of CdtB in several mutants, suggesting that impaired nuclear translocation may, at least partly, explain the mechanisms of CdtB resistance. In addition, mutations in chromatin regulatory genes induce changes in the global gene expression profile, and these may indirectly affect CdtB toxicity. Our results suggest that decreased expression of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi transport-related genes that may be involved in CdtB transport and/or increased expression of DNA repair genes may contribute to CdtB resistance. These results suggest that the functions of chromatin regulators may contribute to the activity of CDT in host cells.

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 skin, which is constantly exposed to a wide variety of environmental insults, maintains its integrity by rapidly responding to external signals. In the epidermis, most genes are set in transcriptionally poised conditions to prepare for the prompt induction of stress responding genes. Local chromatin dynamics, supported by an interplay between epigenetic regulators and transcription factors, underlies transcriptional responses upon stress exposure. This review summarizes the epigenetic mechanism regulating gene expression and discusses how stress signaling provokes chromatin reprogramming in the epidermis. Epigenetic regulators play a leading role in chromatin remodeling during stress adaptation, and the timely release and restoration of these factors are indispensable for an appropriate skin repair. Evidence for the epigenetic regulation of physiological responses in the skin is accumulating. The epigenetic environment under continuous stress stimuli may lead to the acquisition of stress tolerance, but at the same time, may also induce pathological hypersensitivity. This review describes the current understanding of epigenetics and provides the potential of epigenetic regulation in skin disease development.

Abstract
Arrays of regularly spaced nucleosomes dominate chromatin and are often phased by alignment to reference sites like active promoters. How the distances between nucleosomes (spacing), and between phasing sites and nucleosomes are determined remains unclear, and specifically, how ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers impact these features. Here, we used genome-wide reconstitution to probe how Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATP-dependent remodelers generate phased arrays of regularly spaced nucleosomes. We find that remodelers bear a functional element named the 'ruler' that determines spacing and phasing in a remodeler-specific way. We use structure-based mutagenesis to identify and tune the ruler element residing in the Nhp10 and Arp8 modules of the INO80 remodeler complex. Generally, we propose that a remodeler ruler regulates nucleosome sliding direction bias in response to (epi)genetic information. This finally conceptualizes how remodeler-mediated nucleosome dynamics determine stable steady-state nucleosome positioning relative to other nucleosomes, DNA bound factors, DNA ends and DNA sequence elements.

Abstract
In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is packaged into chromatin in the nucleus. The accessibility of DNA is dependent on the chromatin structure and dynamics, which essentially control DNA-related processes, including transcription, DNA replication, and repair. All of the factors that affect the structure and dynamics of nucleosomes, the nucleosome-nucleosome interaction interfaces, and the binding of linker histones or other chromatin-binding proteins need to be considered to understand the organization and function of chromatin fibers. In this review, we provide a summary of recent progress on the structure of chromatin fibers in vitro and in the nucleus, highlight studies on the dynamic regulation of chromatin fibers, and discuss their related biological functions and abnormal organization in diseases.

Abstract
In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is packaged into nucleosomes, which are the basal components coordinating both the structures and functions of chromatin. In this study, we screened a collection of mutations for histone H3/H4 mutants in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that affect the DNA damage sensitivity of DNA damage tolerance (DDT)-deficient cells. We identified a class of histone H3/H4 mutations that suppress methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) sensitivity of DDT-deficient cells (referred to here as the histone SDD mutations), which likely cluster on a specific H3-H4 interface of the nucleosomes. The histone SDD mutations did not suppress the MMS sensitivity of DDT-deficient cells in the absence of Rad51, indicating that homologous recombination (HR) is responsible for DNA damage resistance. Furthermore, the histone SDD mutants showed reduced levels of PCNA ubiquitination after exposure to MMS or UV irradiation, consistent with decreased MMS-induced mutagenesis relative to that of wild-type cells. We also found that histone SDD mutants lacking the INO80 chromatin remodeler impair HR-dependent recovery from MMS-induced replication arrest, resulting in defective S-phase progression and increased Rad52 foci. Taken together, our data provide novel insights into nucleosome functions, which link INO80-dependent chromatin remodeling to the regulation of DDT and HR during the recovery from replication blockage.

Reduced gene dosage of histone H4 prevents CENP-A mislocalization and chromosomal instability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Genetics 2021; 218:6159615.

Abstract
Mislocalization of the centromeric histone H3 variant (Cse4 in budding yeast, CID in flies, CENP-A in humans) to noncentromeric regions contributes to chromosomal instability (CIN) in yeast, fly, and human cells. Overexpression and mislocalization of CENP-A have been observed in cancers, however, the mechanisms that facilitate the mislocalization of overexpressed CENP-A have not been fully explored. Defects in proteolysis of overexpressed Cse4 (GALCSE4) lead to its mislocalization and synthetic dosage lethality (SDL) in mutants for E3 ubiquitin ligases (Psh1, Slx5, SCFMet30, and SCFCdc4), Doa1, Hir2, and Cdc7. In contrast, defects in sumoylation of overexpressed cse4K215/216/A/R prevent its mislocalization and do not cause SDL in a psh1Δ strain. Here, we used a genome-wide screen to identify factors that facilitate the mislocalization of overexpressed Cse4 by characterizing suppressors of the psh1Δ GALCSE4 SDL. Deletions of histone H4 alleles (HHF1 or HHF2), which were among the most prominent suppressors, also suppress slx5Δ, cdc4-1, doa1Δ, hir2Δ, and cdc7-4 GALCSE4 SDL. Reduced dosage of H4 leads to defects in sumoylation and reduced mislocalization of overexpressed Cse4, which contributes to suppression of CIN when Cse4 is overexpressed. We determined that the hhf1-20, cse4-102, and cse4-111 mutants, which are defective in the Cse4-H4 interaction, also exhibit reduced sumoylation of Cse4 and do not display psh1Δ GALCSE4 SDL. In summary, we have identified genes that contribute to the mislocalization of overexpressed Cse4 and defined a role for the gene dosage of H4 in facilitating Cse4 sumoylation and mislocalization to noncentromeric regions, leading to CIN when Cse4 is overexpressed.

Abstract
In a first step of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination, DNA ends are resected such that single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) overhangs are generated. ssDNA is specifically bound by RPA and other factors, which constitutes a ssDNA-domain on damaged chromatin. The molecular organization of this ssDNA and the adjacent dsDNA domain is crucial during DSB signaling and repair. However, data regarding the presence of nucleosomes, the most basic chromatin components, in the ssDNA domain have been contradictory. Here, we use site-specific induction of DSBs and chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by strand-specific sequencing to analyze in vivo binding of key DSB repair and signaling proteins to either the ssDNA or dsDNA domain. In the case of nucleosomes, we show that recently proposed ssDNA nucleosomes are not a major, persistent species, but that nucleosome eviction and DNA end resection are intrinsically coupled. These results support a model of separated dsDNA-nucleosome and ssDNA-RPA domains during DSB repair.

NOPCHAP1 is a PAQosome cofactor that helps loading NOP58 on RUVBL1/2 during box C/D snoRNP biogenesis. Nucleic Acids Res 2021; 49:1094-1113. [PMID: 33367824 PMCID: PMC7826282 DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkaa1226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2020] [Revised: 11/13/2020] [Accepted: 12/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The PAQosome is a large complex composed of the HSP90/R2TP chaperone and a prefoldin-like module. It promotes the biogenesis of cellular machineries but it is unclear how it discriminates closely related client proteins. Among the main PAQosome clients are C/D snoRNPs and in particular their core protein NOP58. Using NOP58 mutants and proteomic experiments, we identify different assembly intermediates and show that C12ORF45, which we rename NOPCHAP1, acts as a bridge between NOP58 and PAQosome. NOPCHAP1 makes direct physical interactions with the CC-NOP domain of NOP58 and domain II of RUVBL1/2 AAA+ ATPases. Interestingly, NOPCHAP1 interaction with RUVBL1/2 is disrupted upon ATP binding. Moreover, while it robustly binds both yeast and human NOP58, it makes little interactions with NOP56 and PRPF31, two other closely related CC-NOP proteins. Expression of NOP58, but not NOP56 or PRPF31, is decreased in NOPCHAP1 KO cells. We propose that NOPCHAP1 is a client-loading PAQosome cofactor that selects NOP58 to promote box C/D snoRNP assembly.

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
Fusarium head blight is a destructive disease of grains resulting in reduced yields and contamination of grains with mycotoxins worldwide; Fusarium graminearum is its major causal agent. Chromatin structure changes play key roles in regulating mycotoxin biosynthesis in filamentous fungi. Using a split-marker approach in three F. graminearum strains INRA156, INRA349 and INRA812 (PH-1), we knocked out the gene encoding H2A.Z, a ubiquitous histone variant reported to be involved in a diverse range of biological processes in yeast, plants and animals, but rarely studied in filamentous fungi. All ΔH2A.Z mutants exhibit defects in development including radial growth, sporulation, germination and sexual reproduction, but with varying degrees of severity between them. Heterogeneity of osmotic and oxidative stress response as well as mycotoxin production was observed in ΔH2A.Z strains. Adding-back wild-type H2A.Z in INRA349ΔH2A.Z could not rescue the phenotypes. Whole genome sequencing revealed that, although H2A.Z has been removed from the genome and the deletion cassette is inserted at H2A.Z locus only, mutations occur at other loci in each mutant regardless of the genetic background. Genes affected by these mutations encode proteins involved in chromatin remodeling, such as the helicase Swr1p or an essential subunit of the histone deacetylase Rpd3S, and one protein of unknown function. These observations suggest that H2A.Z and the genes affected by such mutations are part or the same genetic interaction network. Our results underline the genetic plasticity of F. graminearum facing detrimental gene perturbation. These findings suggest that intergenic suppressions rescue deleterious phenotypes in ΔH2A.Z strains, and that H2A.Z may be essential in F. graminearum. This assumption is further supported by the fact that H2A.Z deletion failed in another Fusarium spp., i.e., the rice pathogen Fusarium fujikuroi.

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 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
Chromatin is a highly dynamic structure that closely relates with gene expression in eukaryotes. ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling, histone post-translational modification and DNA methylation are the main ways that mediate such plasticity. The histone variant H2A.Z is frequently encountered in eukaryotes, and can be deposited or removed from nucleosomes by chromatin remodelling complex SWR1 or INO80, respectively, leading to altered chromatin state. H2A.Z has been found to be involved in a diverse range of biological processes, including genome stability, DNA repair and transcriptional regulation. Due to their formidable production of secondary metabolites, filamentous fungi play outstanding roles in pharmaceutical production, food safety and agriculture. During the last few years, chromatin structural changes were proven to be a key factor associated with secondary metabolism in fungi. However, studies on the function of H2A.Z are scarce. Here, we summarize current knowledge of H2A.Z functions with a focus on filamentous fungi. We propose that H2A.Z is a potential target involved in the regulation of secondary metabolite biosynthesis by fungi.

Abstract
Background Alternative splicing (AS) generates various transcripts from a single gene and thus plays a significant role in transcriptomic diversity and proteomic complexity. Alu elements are primate-specific transposable elements (TEs) and can provide a donor or acceptor site for AS. In a study on TE-mediated AS, we recently identified a novel AluSz6-exonized ACTR8 transcript of the crab-eating monkey (Macaca fascicularis). In the present study, we sought to determine the molecular mechanism of AluSz6 exonization of the ACTR8 gene and investigate its evolutionary and functional consequences in the crab-eating monkey. Results We performed RT-PCR and genomic PCR to analyze AluSz6 exonization in the ACTR8 gene and the expression of the AluSz6-exonized transcript in nine primate samples, including prosimians, New world monkeys, Old world monkeys, and hominoids. AluSz6 integration was estimated to have occurred before the divergence of simians and prosimians. The Alu-exonized transcript obtained by AS was lineage-specific and expressed only in Old world monkeys and apes, and humans. This lineage-specific expression was caused by a single G duplication in AluSz6, which provides a new canonical 5′ splicing site. We further identified other alternative transcripts that were unaffected by the AluSz6 insertion. Finally, we observed that the alternative transcripts were transcribed into new isoforms with C-terminus deletion, and in silico analysis showed that these isoforms do not have a destructive function. Conclusions The single G duplication in the TE sequence is the source of TE exonization and AS, and this mutation may suffer a different fate of ACTR8 gene expression during primate evolution.

Abstract
Background The YEATS domain is a highly conserved protein structure that interacts with acetylated and crotonylated lysine residues in N-terminal tails of histones. The budding yeast genome encodes three YEATS domain proteins (Taf14, Yaf9, and Sas5) that are all the subunits of different complexes involved in histone acetylation, gene transcription, and chromatin remodeling. As the strains deficient in all these three genes are inviable, it has been proposed that the YEATS domain is essential in yeast. In this study we investigate in more detail the requirement of YEATS domain proteins for yeast survival and the possible roles of Taf14 YEATS domain in the regulation of gene transcription. Results We found that YEATS domains are not essential for the survival of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. Although the full deletion of all YEATS proteins is lethal in yeast, we show that the viability of cells can be restored by the expression of the YEATS-less version of Taf14 protein. We also explore the in vivo functions of Taf14 protein and show that the primary role of its YEATS domain is to stabilize the transcription pre-initiation complex (PIC). Our results indicate that Taf14-mediated interactions become crucial for PIC formation in rpb9Δ cells, where the recruitment of TFIIF to the PIC is hampered. Although H3 K9 residue has been identified as the interaction site of the Taf14 YEATS domain in vitro, we found that it is not the only interaction target in vivo. Conclusions Lethality of YEATS-deficient cells can be rescued by the expression of truncated Taf14 protein lacking the entire YEATS domain, indicating that the YEATS domains are not required for cell survival. The YEATS domain of Taf14 participates in PIC stabilization and acetylated/crotonylated H3K9 is not the critical target of the Taf14 YEATS domain in vivo.

Abstract
Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells (ISCs) exhibit self-renewal and differentiation features under homeostatic conditions, but the mechanisms controlling Lgr5 + ISC self-renewal remain elusive. Here, we show that the chromatin remodeler SRCAP is highly expressed in mouse intestinal epithelium and ISCs. Srcap deletion impairs both self-renewal of ISCs and intestinal epithelial regeneration. Mechanistically, SRCAP recruits the transcriptional regulator REST to the Prdm16 promoter and induces expression of this transcription factor. By activating PPARδ expression, Prdm16 in turn initiates PPARδ signaling, which sustains ISC stemness. Rest or Prdm16 deficiency abrogates the self-renewal capacity of ISCs as well as intestinal epithelial regeneration. Collectively, these data show that the SRCAP-REST-Prdm16-PPARδ axis is required for self-renewal maintenance of Lgr5 + ISCs.

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 nucleosome is a small unit of chromatin, which is dynamic in eukaryotes. Chromatin conformation and post-translational modifications affect nucleosome dynamics under certain conditions, playing an important role in the epigenetic regulation of transcription, replication and reprogramming. The Snf2 remodeling family is one of the crucial remodeling complexes that tightly regulate chromatin structure and affect nucleosome dynamics. This family alters nucleosome positioning, exchanges histone variants, and assembles and disassembles nucleosomes at certain locations. Moreover, the Snf2 family, in conjunction with other co-factors, regulates gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Here we first review recent findings on the Snf2 family remodeling complexes and then use some examples to illustrate the cooperation between different members of Snf2 family, and the cooperation between Snf2 family and other co-factors in gene regulation especially during transcription initiation.

Abstract
The INO80 complex, including the Ino80 protein, forms a highly conserved canonical complex that remodels chromatin in the context of multiple cellular functions. The Drosophila homologue, dIno80, is involved in homeotic gene regulation during development as a canonical Pho-dIno80 complex. Previously, we found that dIno80 regulates homeotic genes by interacting with epigenetic regulators, such as polycomb and trithorax, suggesting the occurrence of non-canonical Ino80 complexes. Here using spectroscopic methods and gel retardation assays, we identified a set of consensus DNA sequences that DNA binding domain of dIno80 (DBINO) interacts with having differential affinity and high specificity. Testing these sequences in reporter assays, showed that this interaction can positively regulate transcription. These results suggest that, dIno80 has a sequence preference for interaction with DNA leading to transcriptional changes.

Abstract
The crosstalk between actin and actin-related proteins (Arps), namely Arp2 and Arp3, plays a central role in facilitating actin polymerization in the cytoplasm and also in the nucleus. Nuclear F-actin is required for transcriptional regulation, double-strand break repair, and nuclear organization. The formation of nuclear F-actin is highly dynamic, suggesting the involvement of positive and negative regulators for nuclear actin polymerization. While actin assembly factors for nuclear F-actin have been recently described, information about inhibitory factors is still limited. The actin-related protein Arp4 which is predominantly localized in the nucleus, has been previously identified as an integral subunit of multiple chromatin modulation complexes, where it forms a heterodimer with monomeric actin. Therefore, we tested whether Arp4 functions as a suppressor of nuclear F-actin formation. The knockdown of Arp4 (Arp4 KD) led to an increase in nuclear F-actin formation in NIH3T3 cells, and purified Arp4 potently inhibited F-actin formation in mouse nuclei transplanted into Xenopus laevis oocytes. Consistently, Arp4 KD facilitated F-actin-inducible gene expression (e.g., OCT4) and DNA damage repair. Our results suggest that Arp4 has a critical role in the formation and functions of nuclear F-actin.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to discern the proteomic differences responsible for hampering the receptivity of endometrium and subduing the fertility of females with polycystic ovary syndrome in analogy to healthy fertile females. This study was designed in collaboration with Hakeem Abdul Hameed Centenary Hospital affiliated to Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India. Serum samples were taken from infertile PCOS subjects (n = 6) and fertile control subjects (n = 6) whereas endometrial tissue samples were recruited from ovulatory PCOS (n = 4), anovulatory PCOS (n = 4) and normal healthy fertile control subjects (n = 4) for proteomic studies. Additionally, endometrial biopsies from healthy fertile control (n = 8), PCOS with infertility (n = 6), unexplained infertility (n = 3) and endometrial hyperplasia (n = 3) were taken for validation studies. Anthropometric, biochemical and hormonal evaluation was done for all the subjects enrolled in this study. Protein profiles were generated through 2D-PAGE and differential proteins analyzed with PD-QUEST software followed by identification with MALDI-TOF MS protein mass fingerprinting. Validation of identified proteins was done through RT-PCR relative expression analysis. Protein profiling of serum revealed differential expression of proteins involved in transcriptional regulation, embryogenesis, DNA repair, decidual cell ploidy, immunomodulation, intracellular trafficking and degradation processes. Proteins involved in cell cycle regulation, cellular transport and signaling, DNA repair, apoptotic processes and mitochondrial metabolism were found to be differentially expressed in endometrium. The findings of this study revealed proteins that hold strong candidature as potential drug targets to regulate the cellular processes implicating infertility and reduced receptivity of endometrium in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Abstract
The eukaryotic nucleosome prevents access to the genome. Convergently evolving histone isoforms, also called histone variants, form diverse families that are enriched over distinct features of plant genomes. Among the diverse families of plant histone variants, H2A.Z exclusively marks genes. Here we review recent research progress on the genome-wide distribution patterns and deposition of H2A.Z in plants as well as its association with histone modifications and roles in plant chromatin regulation. We also discuss some hypotheses that explain the different findings about the roles of H2A.Z in plants.

Abstract
Saccharomyces cerevisiae has the most comprehensively characterized protein-protein interaction network, or interactome, of any eukaryote. This has predominantly been generated through multiple, systematic studies of protein-protein interactions by two-hybrid techniques and of affinity-purified protein complexes. A pressing question is to understand how large-scale cross-linking mass spectrometry (XL-MS) can confirm and extend this interactome. Here, intact yeast nuclei were subject to cross-linking with disuccinimidyl sulfoxide (DSSO) and analyzed using hybrid MS2-MS3 methods. XlinkX identified a total of 2,052 unique residue pair cross-links at 1% FDR. Intraprotein cross-links were found to provide extensive structural constraint data, with almost all intralinks that mapped to known structures and slightly fewer of those mapping to homology models being within 30 Å. Intralinks provided structural information for a further 366 proteins. A method for optimizing interprotein cross-link score cut-offs was developed, through use of extensive known yeast interactions. Its application led to a high confidence, yeast nuclear interactome. Strikingly, almost half of the interactions were not previously detected by two-hybrid or AP-MS techniques. Multiple lines of evidence existed for many such interactions, whether through literature or ortholog interaction data, through multiple unique interlinks between proteins, and/or through replicates. We conclude that XL-MS is a powerful means to measure interactions, that complements two-hybrid and affinity-purification techniques.

Abstract
Mammalian switch/sucrose non-fermentable (mSWI/SNF) family complexes are pivotal elements of the chromatin remodeling machinery, which contribute to the regulation of several major cellular functions. Large-scale exome-wide sequencing studies have identified mutations in genes encoding mSWI/SNF subunits in 20% of all human cancers, establishing mSWI/SNF deficiency as a recurrent oncogenic alteration. Accumulating evidence now supports that several mSWI/SNF defects represent targetable vulnerabilities in cancer; notably, recent research advances have unveiled unexpected synthetic lethal opportunities that foster the development of novel biomarker-driven and mechanism-based therapeutic approaches for the treatment of mSWI/SNF-deficient tumors. Here, we review the latest breakthroughs and discoveries that inform our understanding of the mSWI/SNF complexes biology in carcinogenesis, and discuss the most promising therapeutic strategies to target mSWI/SNF defects in human solid malignancies.

Abstract
Microtubules (MTs) are key components in the cytoskeleton of the eukaryotic cell, and play roles in processes such as intracellular transport and cell division. An improved understanding MT regulation requires structural analysis of the extensive interactions between the MT lattice and its regulatory proteins, but MT interactions are challenging for even the most advanced structural methods to characterize. Integrative methods involving crosslinking mass spectrometry (XL-MS) can extend structural analysis to many interaction classes, but the representation of MTs in crosslinking data-sets has been surprisingly low. Here, we explore the basis for the underrepresentation of the MT lattice and present an enhanced method for mapping MT structural features using an optimized set of reagents, together with fluorescence detection to ensure MT structural integrity. Through the application of stringent identification criteria, 91 unique crosslinks were identified, 78 of which were uniquely matched to 7 distinct structural features of the MT lattice. Of note, 4 crosslinks were detected for the lattice-A protofilament organization. The lattice-A structure defines a "seam" or discontinuity in MTs and is an emerging site of interest for MT regulation. Our methodology should be broadly applicable to integrative structural studies involving any MT-protein interaction.

Abstract
The central regulator of the ethylene (ET) signaling pathway, which controls a plethora of developmental programs and responses to environmental cues in plants, is ETHYLENE-INSENSITIVE2 (EIN2). Here we identify a chromatin-dependent regulatory mechanism at EIN2 requiring two genes: ETHYLENE-INSENSITIVE6 (EIN6), which is a H3K27me3 demethylase also known as RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING6 (REF6), and EIN6 ENHANCER (EEN), the Arabidopsis homolog of the yeast INO80 chromatin remodeling complex subunit IES6 (INO EIGHTY SUBUNIT). Strikingly, EIN6 (REF6) and the INO80 complex redundantly control the level and the localization of the repressive histone modification H3K27me3 and the histone variant H2A.Z at the 5’ untranslated region (5’UTR) intron of EIN2. Concomitant loss of EIN6 (REF6) and the INO80 complex shifts the chromatin landscape at EIN2 to a repressive state causing a dramatic reduction of EIN2 expression. These results uncover a unique type of chromatin regulation which safeguards the expression of an essential multifunctional plant stress regulator.

Abstract
Adaptive survival requires the coordination of nutrient availability with expenditure of cellular resources. For example, in nutrient-limited environments, 50% of all S. cerevisiae genes synchronize and exhibit periodic bursts of expression in coordination with respiration and cell division in the yeast metabolic cycle (YMC). Despite the importance of metabolic and proliferative synchrony, the majority of YMC regulators are currently unknown. Here, we demonstrate that the INO80 chromatin-remodeling complex is required to coordinate respiration and cell division with periodic gene expression. Specifically, INO80 mutants have severe defects in oxygen consumption and promiscuous cell division that is no longer coupled with metabolic status. In mutant cells, chromatin accessibility of periodic genes, including TORC1-responsive genes, is relatively static, concomitant with severely attenuated gene expression. Collectively, these results reveal that the INO80 complex mediates metabolic signaling to chromatin to restrict proliferation to metabolically optimal states.

Abstract
The proper modulation of chromatin structure is dependent on the activities of chromatin-remodeling factors and their interplays. Here, we show that the Arabidopsis chromatin-remodeler AtINO80 interacts with the actin-related protein AtARP5 and can form a larger protein complex. Genetic analysis demonstrated that AtARP5 acts in concert with AtINO80 during plant cellular proliferation and replication stress response. At the same time, AtARP5 is not required for AtINO80-mediated control of flowering time and related transcriptional regulation, and their chromatin distribution patterns on regions of flowering-repressor genes FLC/MAF4/MAF5 are also different. An in vitro DNase I digestion assay revealed that the AtINO80N-terminus can weakly bind DNA, an interaction that is significantly inhibited by H2A.Z/H2B addition. AtARP6, a specific subunit of SWR1-C that mediates the H2A.Z exchange, was found to have a previously unexpected inhibitory role in the local chromatin enrichment of AtINO80. Further genetic analyses revealed the functional interplay between AtINO80 and AtARP6 and their critical roles in embryogenesis and post-embryonic organ development, as well as the synergy of AtARP5 and AtARP6 in maintaining genomic stability. Our findings provide insights into the common and distinct roles of AtINO80 and AtARP5 in diverse aspects of plant development.
