    Notes: Summary The cellular abundance of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 histone mRNA sequences was determined prior to and at various times after stimulation of non-dividing human diploid fibroblasts to proliferate. The representation of histone mRNAs was quantitated by electrophoretic fractionation of total cellular RNAs, diffusion transfer to nitrocellulose and hybridization with a series of cloned genomic human histone sequences. The levels of mRNAs for the four core histones were observed to be temporally and quantitatively coupled with both DNA replication and histone protein synthesis. Therefore, a contribution to the regulation of histone gene expression at a transcriptional level is suggested.

    Notes: Summary It has been well documented that core and H1 histone mRNAs accumulate in a manner which closely parallels the initiation of DNA synthesis and histone protein synthesis, suggesting that the onset of histone gene expression early during S phase is at least in part transcriptionally mediated. In fact, it appears that throughout S phase the synthesis of histone proteins is modulated by the availability of histone mRNAs. On the other hand, the stability of histone mRNAs and the destabilization of histone mRNAs when DNA replication is completed or inhibited are highly selective, tightly coupled and largely post-transcriptionally controlled. We present a model to account for histone mRNA turnover whereby the natural or inhibitor-induced termination of DNA replication results in an immediate loss of high affinity binding sites for newly synthesized histone proteins which in turn brings about a transient accumulation of unbound histones. These unbound histones could modify the histone translation complex, via interactions with polysomal histone mRNAs, in such a manner as to render histone mRNAs accessible to cellular ribonucleases. This type of mechanism would be operative solely at the post-transcriptional level and would be compatible with the rapid, RNA synthesis-independent destabilization of histone mRNAs which occurs following inhibition of DNA replication, as well as with the requirement for protein synthesis for histone mRNA destabilization to be initiated.

    Notes: Summary Antisera to 0.35 M NaCl extracts and residues of S phase HeLa nuclei were reacted with electrophoretically separated proteins from the nuclei or nuclear material of HeLa cells synchronized in G1, S, G2 or M phases of the cell cycle. Quantitative evaluation of the peroxidase-antiperoxidase stained nitrocellulose transfers (Western blots) revealed significant changes in the quantities of nuclear non-histone proteins during the cell cycle. Immunochemical staining of electrophoretically separated nuclear antigens permits their selective detection in minute quantities and in the presence of many additional proteins.

    Notes: Abstract Cloned genomic DNA for human histone H1, H3 and H4 genes has been used to determine the effects of γ-radiation on histone mRNA levels and synthesis in ataxia-telangiectasia cells. Synthesis of histone mRNA was determined in cells synchronized with aphidicolin. Effects of irradiation on DNA synthesis and passage through S phase were also monitored. Irradiation was found to slow the passage of control cells through the cell cycle but had no effect on progression of ataxia-telangiectasia cells. H1 and core histone mRNA synthesis was inhibited by radiation in two control cell lines after release from aphidicolin block. No inhibition was observed in one ataxia-telangiectasia cell line and a small degree of inhibition in a second. An increased level of mRNA was observed in both irradiated control and ataxia-telangiectasia cells at 5–7 h post-irradiation compared to unirradiated cells. Similar results were obtained in log phase cells. These results demonstrate that histone mRNA synthesis is radioresistant in ataxia-telangiectasia cells and is coupled to radioresistant DNA synthesis in these cells.

    Notes: Summary Repetitive DNA sequences, derived from the human β-globin gene cluster, were mapped within a series of human genomic DNA segments containing core (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) and H1 histone genes. Cloned recombinant λCH4A phage with human histone gene inserts were analyzed by Southern blot analysis using the following32P-labeled (nick translated) repetitive sequences as probes:Alu I,Kpn I and LTR-like. A cloned DNA designated RS002-5′C6 containing (i)a (TG)16 simple repeat, (ii) an (ATTTT)n repeat and (iii)a 52 base pair alternating purine and pyrimidine sequence was also used as a radiolabelled hybridization probe. Analysis of 12 recombinant phage, containing 6 arrangements of core histone genes, indicated the presence ofAlu I,Kpn and RS002-5′C6 repetitive sequences. In contrast, analysis of 4 human genomic DNA segments, containing both core and H1 histone genes, indicated the presence of onlyAlu I family sequences. LTR-like sequences were not detected in association with any of the core or H1 histone genes examined. These results suggest that human histone and β-globin genes share certain aspects of sequence organization in flanking regions despite marked differences in their overall structure and pattern of expression.

    Notes: Abstract To address the relationship between chromatin structure and histone gene expression, the nucleosomal organization of a cell cycle-dependent human H4 histone gene in a bovine papilloma virus (BPV) minichromosome was examined. The nucleosome repeat length of the human H4 histone gene, maintained as a stable episome in a C127 mouse cell line designated 1–8 [1], was compared with that of the chromosomal copy of the H4 gene in human (HeLa) cells. In both cell lines, the H4 histone gene is predominantly expressed during the S phase of the cell cycle. The nucleosome repeat length of total HeLa cell and C127 mouse cell chromatin was similarly examined. Nuclei were digested with micrococcal nuclease and the DNA was fractionated electrophoretically, transferred to nitrocellulose filters and hybridized with radiolabelled (32P) cloned DNA probes. The nucleosome repeat length of the H4 gene, as an episome in the C127 mouse cell (153 ± 8) and as an integrated copy in a HeLa cell (163 ± 10) was considerably shorter than total genomic host cell (C127) (190 ± 5) or HeLa cell chromatin (183 ± 7). Our results indicate that the episomal H4 histone gene is packaged as chromatin. Moreover, the shortened nucleosome repeat length of the H4 gene, both as an episome or integrated chromosome sequence, suggests that the repeat length is characteristic of the gene and may be functionally related to its cell cycle regulated expression.

    Notes: Abstract Influences of promoter regulatory elements that are responsive to basal and tissue-restricted transactivation factors, steroid hormones, growth factors and other physiologic mediators has provided the basis for understanding regulatory mechanisms contributing to developmental expression of osteocalcin, tissue specificity and biological activity (reviewed in [1–3]). These regulatory elements and cognate transcription factors support postproliferative transcriptional activation and steroid hormone (e.g. vitamin D) enhancement at the onset of extracellular matrix mineralization during osteoblast differentiation. Three parameters of nuclear structure contribute to osteocalcin gene transcriptional control. The linear representation of promoter elements provides competency for physiological responsiveness within the contexts of developmental as well as phenotype-dependent regulation. Chromatin structure and nucleosome organization reduce distances between independent regulatory elements providing a basis for integrating components of transcriptional control. The nuclear matrix supports gene expression by imposing physical constraints on chromatin related to three dimensional genomic organization. In addition, the nuclear matrix facilitates gene localization as well as the concentration and targeting of transcription factors. Several lines of evidence are presented which are consistent with involvement of multiple levels of nuclear architecture in tissue-specific gene expression during differentiation. Growth factor and steroid hormone responsive modifications in chromatin structure, nucleosome organization and the nuclear matrix are considered which influence transcription of the bone tissue-specific osteocalcin gene during progressive expression of the osteoblast phenotype.

    Notes: Abstract Association of transcription factors with the nuclear matrix represents a mechanism by which nuclear architecture may influence transcriptional control of gene expression. This investigation examines nuclear matrix associated proteins (NMP's) isolated from ocular lens epithelial cells by monitoring DNA binding activities using consensus oligonucleotides recognized by the transcription factors YY1, AML-1, AP-1, SP-1 and ATF. The nuclear matrix fractions tested included an immortilized human lens epithelial cell line containing the SV40 large T-antigen, and two mouse lens epithelial cell lines derived from either a normal mouse or a cataract mouse. A rabbit epidermal epithelial cell line and HeLa cells were also included in this study for comparison. The data from these experiments reveal that ubiquitously represented and tissue restricted regulatory proteins are associated with nuclear matrix of lens epithelial cells. The functional significance of the nuclear matrix association of these transcription factors remains to be determined. However, our findings raise the possibility that the transcription factors associated with the nuclear matrix could have specific roles in gene regulation and eye tissue development.

    Notes: Abstract The homeodomain transcription factor CDP/cut contains four separate DNA binding domains and interacts with large segments of DNA. Thus, CDP/cut has the potential to function as an architectural protein and perhaps to support modifications in chromatin structure and nucleosomal organization. To begin to examine the ability of CDP/cut to interact with chromatin, we analyzed binding of CDP/cut to the histone H4 gene promoter (−90 to +75) reconstituted into nucleosome cores. The −90 to +75 region encompasses the cell cycle regulatory element (Site II) that controls histone H4 gene transcription, a CDP/cut binding site and a nuclease hypersensitive region. Using electrophoretic mobility shift assays and DNase I footprinting experiments, we show that CDP/cut specifically interacts with its recognition motif in a nucleosomal context without displacing the nucleosome core. The competency of CDP/cut to interact with nucleosomes suggests that this transcription factor may facilitate chromatin remodeling in response to cell cycle regulatory and/or developmental cues.
