ABSTRACT

In Drosophila, the Heterochromatin Protein 1c (HP1c) forms a transcriptional complex with the zinc-finger proteins WOC and ROW, and the extraproteasomal ubiquitin receptor Dsk2. This complex localizes at promoters of active genes and it is required for transcription. The functions played by the different components of the HP1c complex are not fully understood. In this study we show that WOC and ROW are required for chromatin binding of both Dsk2 and HP1c. However, while impairing chromatin binding strongly destabilizes HP1c, it does not affect Dsk2 stability. We also show that WOC, but not ROW, is required for nuclear localization of Dsk2. Moreover, WOC and Dsk2 co-immunoprecitate upon ROW depletion. These results suggest that WOC and Dsk2 interact to form a subcomplex that mediates nuclear translocation of Dsk2. We also show that ROW mediates chromatin binding of the WOC/Dsk2 subcomplex, as well as of HP1c. Altogether these observations favor a model by which the interaction with WOC recruits Dsk2 to the HP1c complex that, in its turn, binds chromatin in a ROW-dependent manner.

ABSTRACT

The European Academy for Biomedical Science (ENABLE) is an initiative funded by the European Union Horizon 2020 program involving four renowned European Research Institutes (Institute for Research in Biomedicine-IRB Barcelona, Spain; Radboud Institute for Molecular Life Sciences-RIMLS, The Netherlands; Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research-NNF CPR, Denmark; European School of Molecular Medicine-SEMM, Italy) and an innovative science communication agency (Scienseed). With the aim of promoting biomedical science of excellence in Europe, ENABLE organizes an annual three-day international event. This gathering includes a top-level scientific symposium bringing together leading scientists, PhD students, and post-doctoral fellows; career development activities supporting the progression of young researchers and fostering discussion about opportunities beyond the bench; and outreach activities stimulating the interaction between science and society. The first European PhD and Post-Doc Symposium, entitled "Breaking Down Complexity: Innovative Models and Techniques in Biomedicine", was hosted by the vibrant city of Barcelona. The scientific program of the conference was focused on the most recent advances and applications of modern techniques and models in biomedical research and covered a wide range of topics, from synthetic biology to translational medicine. Overall, the event was a great success, with more than 200 attendees from all over Europe actively participating in the symposium by presenting their research and exchanging ideas with their peers and world-renowned scientists.
