The coactivator role of histone deacetylase 3 in IL-1-signaling involves deacetylation of p65 NF-?B.

ABSTRACT: Histone deacetylase (HDAC) 3, as a cofactor in co-repressor complexes containing silencing mediator for retinoid or thyroid-hormone receptors (SMRT) and nuclear receptor co-repressor (N-CoR), has been shown to repress gene transcription in a variety of contexts. Here, we reveal a novel role for HDAC3 as a positive regulator of IL-1-induced gene expression. Various experimental approaches involving RNAi-mediated knockdown, conditional gene deletion or small molecule inhibitors indicate a positive role of HDAC3 for transcription of the majority of IL-1-induced human or murine genes. This effect was independent from the gene regulatory effects mediated by the broad-spectrum HDAC inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) and thus suggests IL-1-specific functions for HDAC3. The stimulatory function of HDAC3 for inflammatory gene expression involves a mechanism that uses binding to NF-?B p65 and its deacetylation at various lysines. NF-?B p65-deficient cells stably reconstituted to express acetylation mimicking forms of p65 (p65 K/Q) had largely lost their potential to stimulate IL-1-triggered gene expression, implying that the co-activating property of HDAC3 involves the removal of inhibitory NF-?B p65 acetylations at K122, 123, 314 and 315. These data describe a novel function for HDAC3 as a co-activator in inflammatory signaling pathways and help to explain the anti-inflammatory effects frequently observed for HDAC inhibitors in (pre)clinical use.

Project description:Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a fatal demyelinating disease caused by neurotropic polyomavirus, JC virus (JCV), a virus that causes lytic infection of CNS glial cells. After primary infection, JCV is controlled by the immune system but virus persists asymptomatically. Rarely, when immune function is impaired, it can reemerge to cause PML. The mechanisms of JCV persistence and reactivation are not well understood but our earlier work implicated epigenetic control by protein acetylation since histone deacetylase inhibitors such as trichostatin A (TSA) strongly stimulate JCV transcription. Since both TNF-α and TSA activate JCV transcription via the same unique NF-κB site in the JCV control region, we investigated a role for acetylation of NF-κB in JCV regulation. A site-directed mutagenesis strategy was employed targeting the known lysine acetylation sites of NF-κB p65: K218, K221, and K310. We individually mutated each lysine to arginine, which cannot be acetylated and retains a positive charge like lysine. K218R and K221R impaired transactivation of JCV early promoter transcription either alone or combined with TSA treatment or coexpression of acetyltransferase transcriptional coactivator p300 but K310R was largely without effect. Mutation of lysine to glutamine gives mutants with a negative charge like acetyllysine. However, K218Q and K221Q showed impaired activity and only K310Q showed enhanced transactivation. NF-κB acetylation can regulate several aspects of the process of activation including complex formation with IκB, translocation to the nucleus, and DNA binding and transcriptional activation. Cell fractionation studies revealed that the mutants had no defect in translocation to the nucleus whereas gel shift studies revealed reduced binding to the JCV NF-κB site. Thus, acetylation regulates NF-κB p65 activity toward JCV at the level of p65 binding to the JCV control region and activation of JCV transcription.
