Abstract:
:Although the role of liganded nuclear receptors in mediating coactivator/corepressor exchange is well-established, little is known about the potential regulation of chromosomal organization in the 3-dimensional space of the nucleus in achieving integrated transcriptional responses to diverse signaling events. Here, we report that ligand induces rapid interchromosomal interactions among specific subsets of estrogen receptor alpha-bound transcription units, with a dramatic reorganization of nuclear territories, which depends on the actions of nuclear actin/myosin-I machinery and dynein light chain 1. The histone lysine demethylase, LSD1, is required for these ligand-induced interactive loci to associate with distinct interchromatin granules, long thought to serve as "storage" sites for the splicing machinery, some critical transcription elongation factors, and various chromatin remodeling complexes. We demonstrate that this 2-step nuclear rearrangement is essential for achieving enhanced, coordinated transcription of nuclear receptor target genes.
