Arabidopsis Chromatin Assembly Factor 1 is required for occupancy and position of a subset of nucleosomes

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Chromatin Assembly Factor 1 (CAF-1) is a major nucleosome assembly complex which functions particularly during DNA replication and repair. Here we studied how the nucleosome landscape changes in a CAF-1 mutant in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Globally, most nucleosomes were not affected by loss of CAF-1, indicating the presence of efficient alternative nucleosome assemblers. Nucleosomes that we found depleted in the CAF-1 mutant were enriched in non-transcribed regions, consistent with the notion that CAF-1-independent nucleosome assembly can compensate for loss of CAF-1 mainly in transcribed regions. Depleted nucleosomes were particularly enriched in proximal promoters, suggesting that CAF-1-independent nucleosome assembly mechanisms are often not efficient upstream of transcription start sites. Genes related to plant defense were particularly prone to lose nucleosomes in their promoters upon CAF-1 depletion. Reduced nucleosome occupancy at promoters of many defense-related genes is associated with a primed gene expression state that may considerably increase plant fitness by facilitating plant defense. Together, our results establish that the nucleosome landscape in Arabidopsis is surprisingly robust even in the absence of the dedicated nucleosome assembly machinery CAF-1 and that CAF-1-independent nucleosome assembly mechanisms are less efficient in particular genome regions.
