Live-cell p53 single-molecule binding is modulated by C-terminal acetylation and correlates with transcriptional activity

Abstract

Live-cell microscopy has highlighted that transcription factors bind transiently to chromatin but it is not clear if the duration of these binding interactions can be modulated in response to an activation stimulus, and if such modulation can be controlled by post-translational modifications of the transcription factor. We address this question for the tumor suppressor p53 by combining live-cell single-molecule microscopy and single cell in situ measurements of transcription and we show that p53-binding kinetics are modulated following genotoxic stress. The modulation of p53 residence times on chromatin requires C-terminal acetylation—a classical mark for transcriptionally active p53—and correlates with the induction of transcription of target genes such as CDKN1a. We propose a model in which the modification state of the transcription factor determines the coupling between transcription factor abundance and transcriptional activity by tuning the transcription factor residence time on target sites.

Fig. 1 Single-molecule tracking of HaloTag-p53 in response to DNA damage. a, b Characterization of MCF-7/6/Hp53 cell line a Western blot of p53 and HaloTag-p53 at different times following the induction of DNA damage by 10 Gy IR in MCF-7/6/Hp53, a stable cell line expressing HaloTag-p53, and in the parental breast cancer cell line MCF-7 (2 replicates). b Representative confocal microscopy fields of MCF-7/6/HaloTag-p53 cells before and after exposure to 10 Gy IR. HaloTag-p53 was labeled with HaloTag-TMR fluorescent ligand. A small fraction of cells displays high HaloTag-p53 levels even when unstimulated. Scale bar 15 µm. A similar fraction of p53-positive cells can be identified in the parental cell line by immunofluorescence. Scale bar 15 µm. c–e Single-molecule tracking of HaloTag-p53. c The average projection of the images allows the identification of the cell nucleus and of the sites of relatively stable immobilization of the single molecules, which appear as bright spots. Scale bar 5 µm. d The movies were tracked to compute the distribution of single-molecule displacements (n cells = 8, n displacements = 8876 for 0 h and 7973 for 2 h). The distributions were fitted with a three-component diffusion model, where the slowest diffusion component is representative of chromatin-bound molecules. The insets show the cumulative distribution of displacements. Fitted parameters are shown in Table 1. e The experiments above were repeated at different times following the induction of DNA damage to measure the diffusion coefficients and the fraction of molecules in the bound state and in the two free states (3 replicates, n cells = 17, 9, 23, 26, 22, n displacements = 18 609, 8704, 41 854, 38 155, 22 889 for 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 h after DNA damage, error bars: SD)

Fig. 2 Measurement of the p53 residence time by kymograph analysis. a In kymograph representation, chromatin-bound transcription factors (white rectangles) appear as horizontal segments parallel to the temporal axis: the duration of each binding event is provided by the length of the segment. Typically, 2 h after irradiation p53 displays longer binding events than in unstimulated conditions. b The measured binding events are used to populate the complement cumulative distribution function (3 replicates, n cells = 18, 23, and 20, n bound = 108, 171, 81 for 0 h, 2 h, and 4 h, respectively) which is then corrected for the observational photobleaching and fit by a bi-exponential distribution (See Supplementary Methods). c The model provides estimates for the average residence time of p53 to chromatin and combined with the information on p53 bound fraction (Fig. 1) allows estimating the average free time between binding events. d The bi-exponential fit also provides estimates for the residence time of the short-lived population, for the long-lived residence time, and for the fraction of molecules in each of these states. The time that p53 spends searching for these stable sites is calculated as described in the Supplementary Methods (error bars: 95% CI)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
