Distinct roles of HDAC complexes in promoter silencing, antisense suppression and DNA damage protection

Abstract: Histone acetylation is important in regulating DNA accessibility. Multifunctional Sin3 proteins bind histone deacetylases (HDACs) to assemble silencing complexes that selectively target chromatin. We show that, in fission yeast, an essential HDAC, Clr6, exists in two distinct Sin3 core complexes. Complex I contains an essential Sin3 homolog, Pst1, and other factors, and predominantly targets gene promoters. Complex II contains a nonessential Sin3 homolog, Pst2, and several conserved proteins. It preferentially… Show more

“…This further supports the notion that HDAC inhibition stabilizes DSBs and/or increases DNA sensitivity to DSBs. In fission yeast, strains mutated for components of HDAC complexes are highly sensitive to genotoxic agents, with a massive accumulation of DSBs [53]. The same study also demonstrated that these strains increase antisense transcripts, suggesting that DSBs could be triggered by the presence of RNA-DNA hybrids, structures known to induce genomic instability [54].…”

“…Furthermore, mRNAs are asymmetrically partitioned on centrosomes during mollusk embryonic cleavages (Lambert and Nagy, 2002). Finally, SpRrp6 and SpDis3 processes or degrade centromeric siRNAs that regulate kinetochore function (Murakami et al, 2007;Nicolas et al, 2007); whether these RNAs underlie the mechanism of metazoan Rrp6 action on mitotic chromosomes is unknown.…”

“…The only core subunit linked to these phenomena is Csl4 (Baker et al, 1998) and that effect has been shown to be indirect (van Hoof et al, 2000). It has been suggested that the mitotic function of SpRrp6 and SpDis3 is to process or degrade centromere-associated small inhibitory RNAs (siRNAs; Buhler et al, 2007;Murakami et al, 2007;Nicolas et al, 2007). Whether these results in S. pombe explain the mitotic phenotypes associated with perturbation of Rrp6 and Dis3 in other eukaryotes is unknown.…”

“…The HDACs Clr3 (a component of the SHREC (Snf2/Hdaccontaining repressor complex) silencing complex 23 ) and Clr6 (which exists in multi-subunit complexes 21 ) have been implicated in controlling Tf2 expression in S. pombe 10,21,23 . We investigated potential genetic interactions between HDACs and Abp1 in Tf2 silencing.…”
