Mi-2/NuRD complex

Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the field of molecular biology, the Mi-2/NuRD (Nucleosome Remodeling Deacetylase) complex, is a group of associated proteins with both ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling and histone deacetylase activities.[1][2] As of 2007, Mi-2/NuRD was the only known protein complex that couples chromatin remodeling ATPase and chromatin deacetylation enzymatic functions.[3]

Discovery

[edit]

In 1998, several independent groups reported the discovery of multi-enzyme complexes conferring both nucleosome remodelling and histone deacetylation activities.[4][5][6][7] Xue et al[1] first described the human complex as the Nucleosome Remodelling and Deacetylase (NuRD) - this name has since been adopted for homologous complexes in most organisms.

Composition

[edit]

The NuRD complex contains seven subunits: the histone deacetylase core proteins HDAC1 and HDAC2, the histone-binding proteins RbAp46 and RbAp48, the metastasis-associated proteins MTA1 (or MTA2 / MTA3), the methyl-CpG-binding domain protein MBD3 (or MBD2) and the chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein CHD3 (aka Mi-2alpha) or CHD4 (aka Mi-2beta).

NuRD can be subdivided into two discrete subcomplexes which confer neuclosome remodelling or histone deacetylation activity,each of which retains catalytic activity without the presence of the other.[8] The histone deacetylases HDAC1 and HDAC2 and the histone binding proteins RbAp48 and RbAp46 form a core complex shared between NuRD and Sin3-histone deacetylase complexes.[9][10]

NuRD-independent Mi2/CHD4 activity

[edit]

Mi-2/CHD4 may confer NuRD independent transcriptional regulation in some organisms and contexts.[11] For example, in the fly, Drosophila melanogaster, the majority of Mi2 biochemically purifies separately from the rest of the NuRD subunits[12] and profiling of NuRD component binding sites indicates that only a minority of loci are co-occupied by both Mi-2 and HDAC.[13] Similar results are reported in mouse embryonic stem cells where CHD4 shares only a minority of binding loci with core NuRD component, MBD3.[14] Independently of histone deacetylase, Mi-2 knockdown in neuronal tissue results in mis-expression of genes that are normally restricted to germline.[13] A similar observation was made in human erythroid cells, in which CHD4 but not Mi-2 is required for suppression of fetal globin genes.[15]

Biological functions of NuRD

[edit]

NuRD is traditionally thought of as a primarily repressive complex, and in some contexts it is clear that it does confer this function. For example, NuRD is required to silence genes in neuronal differentiation.[16] However, more recent studies have presented a more nuanced picture of NuRD activity in which it is required for fine-tuning of gene expression during stem cell differentiation to ensure appropriate lineage specification.[14][dubious – discuss]
