The SWR1C chromatin remodeling enzyme catalyzes ATP-dependent replacement of nucleosomal H2A with the H2A.Z variant, regulating key DNA-mediated processes such as transcription and DNA repair. Here, we investigate the transient kinetic mechanism of the histone exchange reaction, employing ensemble FRET, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), and the steady-state kinetics of ATP hydrolysis. Our studies indicate that SWR1C modulates nucleosome dynamics on both the millisecond and microsecond timescales, poising the nucleosome for the dimer exchange reaction. The transient kinetic analysis of the remodeling reaction performed under single turnover conditions unraveled a striking asymmetry in the ATP-dependent replacement of nucleosomal dimers, promoted by localized DNA unwrapping. Taken together, our transient kinetic studies identify intermediates and provide crucial insights into the SWR1C-catalyzed dimer exchange reaction and shed light on how the mechanics of H2A.Z deposition might contribute to transcriptional regulation in vivo.

SWR1C Modulates the Conformational Fluctuations of the Nucleosome(A–F) The ratios of donor-acceptor cross-correlation to acceptor auto-correlation are plotted as a function of time under various experimental conditions. The experimental data were analyzed using either a single- or double-exponential rate equation, yielding the values of the kobs (t1/2 = 0.693/kobs) for the conformational fluctuation of the nucleosome.(A) Dynamics of an H2A-nucleosome.(B) The dynamics of the SWR1C-H2A nucleosome complex are 2 orders of magnitude faster than the free nucleosome.(C) Addition of AMP-PNP (a non-hydrolyzable analog of ATP) to the SWR1C-nucleosome complex induces additional nucleosome dynamics on the microsecond timescale.(D) Dynamics of the H2A.Z nucleosome.(E) The dynamics of the SWR1C-H2A.Z nucleosome complex are 2 orders of magnitude faster than the free nucleosome.(F) Addition of AMP-PNP to the SWR1C-H2A.Z nucleosome does not alter nucleosome dynamics.FCS curves were obtained after averaging at least 20–25 autocorrelation/cross-correlation curves. | |
Figure 3. Transient Kinetics of ATP-Dependent Eviction of Two H2A-H2B Dimers from an H2A Nucleosome Are Asymmetric(A) Experimental strategy for monitoring the rate of eviction of nucleosomal H2A-H2B. The nucleosomal substrate contains a Cy3-labeled DNA end, and Cy5 is located on the H2A C terminus. Cy5 FRET signals were monitored over time in reactions that contained free H2A.Z-H2B dimers.(B) Representative kinetic trace for SWR1C-catalyzed eviction of H2A-H2B dimers from an H2A nucleosome. The experimental data were analyzed using adouble-exponential rate equation, yielding the kobs for the fast and slow phases as 0.33 ± 0.02 min−1 (half-life = 2.1 min) and 0.06 ± 0.01 min−1(half-life = 12.3 min), respectively.(C) The kinetic trace for SWR1C-catalyzed eviction of H2A-H2B dimers from an H2A nucleosome containing a 2-nt gap at both SHL+2.0 and SHL−2.0.(D) The kinetic trace for SWR1C-catalyzed eviction of the H2A-H2B dimer from an H2A nucleosome harboring a 2-nt gap at the linker-distal SHL+2.0. The monophasic trace was analyzed using a single-exponential rate equation, yielding the kobs as 0.06 ± 0.01 min−1(half-life = 12 min).(E) The kinetic trace for SWR1C-catalyzed eviction of the H2A-H2B dimer from an H2A nucleosome harboring a 2-nt gap at the linker-proximal SHL−2.0. The kinetic trace is monophasic; hence, it was analyzed using a single-exponential rate equation, yielding the observed rate as 0.12 ± 0.03min−1 (half-life = 6 min). At least 3–4 kinetic traces were collected for each experimental condition, and they were averaged. The resultant kinetic traces were analyzed using an exponential rate equation, and the error in the measurement represents the standard error of the parameter derived from non-linear regression analysis using the Origin software package (OriginLab). | |

Nucleosome Determinants of Asymmetric Dimer Exchange(A) Normalized Cy5 FRET signal comparing theSWR1C-dependent kinetics of H2A-Cy5 eviction from nucleosomes with the linker on the TA-poor (black) or TA-rich side (red) of the 601 nucleosome position sequence.(B) Normalized Cy5 FRET signal showing biphasic kinetics of H2A-H2B dimer eviction from center-positioned 55N78 H3-Cy3 H2A-Cy5 nucleosomes by SWR1C and the H2A.Z-H2B dimer upon addition of ATP (black) compared with the negative controls of AMP-PNP (red) or nucleosome alone plus ATP (green). The half-lives of the fast and slow phase are 0.6 min and 9.4 min, respectively, slightly faster than the rates of dimer eviction on the asymmetric 55N0 nucleosome.Traces were collected in triplicates, averaged, and fit to a double-exponential decay model.

Figure 7. Kinetic Model of the SWR1C-Catalyzed Histone Dimer Exchange Reaction(1) The engagement of SWR1C to the H2A-nucleosome enhances the unwrapping and/or rewrapping kinetics of the nucleosomal DNA on the millisecond timescale. (2) Binding of ATP to the SWR1C-engaged nucleosome further affects its dynamics on the microsecond timescale. (3) SWR1C and free H2A.Z-H2B dimers catalyze translocation of nucleosomal DNA, leading to unwrapping of DNA from the linker-distal nucleosome edge. We propose that this is the power stroke of the reaction. (4) Unwrapping of nucleosomal DNA leads to eviction and replacement of the distal H2A-H2B dimer. (5) SWR1C remains engaged with the H2A-H2A.Z heterotypic nucleosome and catalyzes the slower replacement of the linker-proximal H2A-H2B dimer, utilizing the H2A.Z-H2B-mediated second round of the power stroke. |
