项目摘要

Covalent modifications of both DNA and histones are important for regulating gene expression. Here, I propose to address two fundamental, unanswered questions about chromatin modifications: i) how are changes in chromatin states established during development; and ii) once established, how are chromatin modifications stably preserved through future cell divisions? Initially, we will focus our analysis on understanding how the noncoding RNA Xist establishes silencing of the X chromosome in female mammalian cells. During initiation of X- inactivation, Xist RNA spreads in cis to coat the X chromosome that will become inactive, mediates silencing, and triggers the sequential accumulation of chromatin modifications. How Xist RNA initiates silencing remains unknown. One approach to gain insight into the function of Xist is to identify interacting proteins. We have obtained results demonstrating that Xist is part of a large protein complex. In Aim 1, we therefore propose to use classical and non- conventional purification strategies to identify Xist -interacting proteins. To identify proteins necessary for maintaining the silence of the inactive X, we will perform an RNAi based screen in Aim 2, which is based on the reactivation of the inactive X. We expect to find proteins involved in the epigenetic inheritance of the silent X chromosome state. The cell cycle poses a particularly challenging problem for epigenetic inheritance since histone modifications have to be maintained when DNA strands are duplicated during S phase. A major question therefore is, how chromatin modifications are transmitted through cell divisions, and if they are indeed sufficient as carriers of the epigenetic information. Surprisingly, we have found that histone modifications on the inactive X do not accumulate throughout the cell cycle. In Aim 3, we will extent studies on the cell cycle regulation of histone modifications.

DNA 和组蛋白的共价修饰对于调节基因表达非常重要。在这里，我建议解决有关染色质的两个基本的、尚未解答的问题修改：i) 发育过程中染色质状态的变化是如何发生的；和 ii) 一旦建立，染色质修饰如何在未来的细胞中稳定保存部门？首先，我们的分析重点是了解非编码 RNA 是如何存在的建立雌性哺乳动物细胞中 X 染色体的沉默。在X-启动期间失活，Xist RNA 以顺式扩散，覆盖 X 染色体，从而变得失活，介导沉默，并触发染色质修饰的连续积累。如何 Xist RNA 启动沉默仍然未知。深入了解功能的一种方法 Xist 是为了识别相互作用的蛋白质。我们获得的结果证明 Xist 是一个大的蛋白质复合物。因此，在目标 1 中，我们建议使用经典和非鉴定 Xist 相互作用蛋白的常规纯化策略。鉴定蛋白质为了维持非活性 X 的沉默，我们将进行基于 RNAi 的筛选目标 2，基于失活 X 的重新激活。我们期望找到相关蛋白质沉默X染色体状态的表观遗传。细胞周期构成了表观遗传的特别具有挑战性的问题，因为组蛋白修饰必须当 DNA 链在 S 期复制时得以维持。因此，一个主要问题是，染色质修饰如何通过细胞分裂传递，以及它们是否确实如此足以作为表观遗传信息的载体。令人惊讶的是，我们发现组蛋白对非活性 X 的修饰不会在整个细胞周期中累积。在目标 3 中，我们将组蛋白修饰对细胞周期调控的深入研究。
