Histone H1 facilitates restoration of H3K27me3 during DNA replication by chromatin compaction
2023
Overview
During cell renewal, epigenetic information needs to be precisely restored to maintain cell identity and genome integrity following DNA replication. The histone mark H3K27me3 is essential for the formation of facultative heterochromatin and the repression of developmental genes in embryonic stem cells. However, how the restoration of H3K27me3 is precisely achieved following DNA replication is still poorly understood. Here we employ ChOR-seq (Chromatin Occupancy after Replication) to monitor the dynamic re-establishment of H3K27me3 on nascent DNA during DNA replication. We find that the restoration rate of H3K27me3 is highly correlated with dense chromatin states. In addition, we reveal that the linker histone H1 facilitates the rapid post-replication restoration of H3K27me3 on repressed genes and the restoration rate of H3K27me3 on nascent DNA is greatly compromised after partial depletion of H1. Finally, our in vitro biochemical experiments demonstrate that H1 facilitates the propagation of H3K27me3 by PRC2 through compacting chromatin. Collectively, our results indicate that H1-mediated chromatin compaction facilitates the propagation and restoration of H3K27me3 after DNA replication.
Liu et al. investigated the dynamic re-establishment of H3K27me3 on nascent DNA during DNA replication. They found H1-mediated chromatin compaction facilitates the propagation and restoration of H3K27me3 after DNA replication.
