Supplementary information

Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes Flexible Hinge Domain Containing 1 (SMCHD1) is a chromatin-associated protein known by several names including FSHD2 protein. It has an approximate mass of 253 kDa. SMCHD1 functions primarily as an epigenetic repressor; it modifies the chromatin structure by influencing histone positioning. SMCHD1 is expressed abundantly in a variety of tissues including muscle and neural tissues indicating its widespread importance in cellular regulation.
Biological function summary

SMCHD1 modulates gene expression by modifying the chromatin landscape. It is not only involved in chromatin remodeling but also interacts as a part of a larger protein complex that affects transcriptional silencing. By mediating gene silencing SMCHD1 is important for processes such as X-chromosome inactivation in females and the silencing of certain imprinted genes which require precise regulation and inheritance patterns.

Pathways

SMCHD1 plays a role in the epigenetic regulatory pathway influencing genomic imprinting and X-chromosome inactivation. It works alongside proteins such as EZH2 from the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) and HP1 proteins demonstrating its integration in chromatin organization and gene expression control. Studies show that SMCHD1 has a relationship with pathways directed by these proteins highlighting its collaborative regulation of chromatin architecture.

SMCHD1 associates with two conditions: facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy type 2 (FSHD2) and Bosma arhinia microphthalmia syndrome (BAMS). FSHD2 involves mutations in SMCHD1 leading to misregulated expression of DUX4 a protein linked to muscle degeneration while BAMS relates to developmental defects due to disrupted chromatin dynamics. SMCHD1's connection with these conditions underlines its significant role in maintaining proper genomic function and highlights its potential as a target for therapeutic interventions.

Target data

Non-canonical member of the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) protein family that plays a key role in epigenetic silencing by regulating chromatin architecture (By similarity). Promotes heterochromatin formation in both autosomes and chromosome X, probably by mediating the merge of chromatin compartments (By similarity). Plays a key role in chromosome X inactivation in females by promoting the spreading of heterochromatin (PubMed : 23542155). Recruited to inactivated chromosome X by Xist RNA and acts by mediating the merge of chromatin compartments : promotes random chromatin interactions that span the boundaries of existing structures, leading to create a compartment-less architecture typical of inactivated chromosome X (By similarity). Required to facilitate Xist RNA spreading (By similarity). Also required for silencing of a subset of clustered autosomal loci in somatic cells, such as the DUX4 locus (PubMed : 23143600). Has ATPase activity; may participate in structural manipulation of chromatin in an ATP-dependent manner as part of its role in gene expression regulation (PubMed : 29748383). Also plays a role in DNA repair : localizes to sites of DNA double-strand breaks in response to DNA damage to promote the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (PubMed : 24790221, PubMed : 25294876). Acts by promoting non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and inhibiting homologous recombination (HR) repair (PubMed : 25294876).
