Exploring the Ligand Preferences of the PHD1 Domain of Histone Demethylase KDM5A Reveals Tolerance for Modifications of the Q5 Residue of Histone 3.

ABSTRACT: Understanding the ligand preferences of epigenetic reader domains enables identification of modification states of chromatin with which these domains associate and can yield insight into recruitment and catalysis of chromatin-acting complexes. However, thorough exploration of the ligand preferences of reader domains is hindered by the limitations of traditional protein-ligand binding assays. Here, we evaluate the binding preferences of the PHD1 domain of histone demethylase KDM5A using the protein interaction by SAMDI (PI-SAMDI) assay, which measures protein-ligand binding in a high-throughput and sensitive manner via binding-induced enhancement in the activity of a reporter enzyme, in combination with fluorescence polarization. The PI-SAMDI assay was validated by confirming its ability to accurately profile the relative binding affinity of a set of well-characterized histone 3 (H3) ligands of PHD1. The assay was then used to assess the affinity of PHD1 for 361 H3 mutant ligands, a select number of which were further characterized by fluorescence polarization. Together, these experiments revealed PHD1's tolerance for H3Q5 mutations, including an unexpected tolerance for aromatic residues in this position. Motivated by this finding, we further demonstrate a high-affinity interaction between PHD1 and recently identified Q5-serotonylated H3. This work yields interesting insights into permissible PHD1-H3 interactions and demonstrates the value of interfacing PI-SAMDI and fluorescence polarization in investigations of protein-ligand binding.

Histone H3 binding to the PHD1 domain of histone demethylase KDM5A enables active site remodeling.

Project description:Histone demethylase KDM5A removes methyl marks from lysine 4 of histone H3 and is often overexpressed in cancer. The in vitro demethylase activity of KDM5A is allosterically enhanced by binding of its product, unmodified H3 peptides, to its PHD1 reader domain. However, the molecular basis of this allosteric enhancement is unclear. Here we show that saturation of the PHD1 domain by the H3 N-terminal tail peptides stabilizes binding of the substrate to the catalytic domain and improves the catalytic efficiency of demethylation. When present in saturating concentrations, differently modified H3 N-terminal tail peptides have a similar effect on demethylation. However, they vary greatly in their affinity towards the PHD1 domain, suggesting that H3 modifications can tune KDM5A activity. Furthermore, hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled with mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) experiments reveal conformational changes in the allosterically enhanced state. Our findings may enable future development of anti-cancer therapies targeting regions involved in allosteric regulation.

Histone demethylase KDM5A promotes tumorigenesis of osteosarcoma tumor.

Project description:Osteosarcoma is a primary bone malignancy with a high rate of recurrence and poorer prognosis. Therefore, it is of vital importance to explore novel prognostic molecular biomarkers and targets for more effective therapeutic approaches. Previous studies showed that histone demethylase KDM5A can increase the proliferation and metastasis of several cancers. However, the function of KDM5A in the carcinogenesis of osteosarcoma is not clear. In the current study, KDM5A was highly expressed in osteosarcoma than adjacent normal tissue. Knockdown of KDM5A suppressed osteosarcoma cell proliferation and induced apoptosis. Moreover, knockdown of KDM5A could increase the expression level of P27 (cell-cycle inhibitor) and decrease the expression of Cyclin D1. Furthermore, after knockout of KDM5A in osteosarcoma cells by CRISPR/Cas9 system, the tumor size and growth speed were inhibited in tumor-bearing nude mice. RNA-Seq of KDM5A-KO cells indicated that interferon, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), IL6/JAK/STAT3, and TNF-α/NF-κB pathway were likely involved in the regulation of osteosarcoma cell viability. Taken together, our research established a role of KDM5A in osteosarcoma tumorigenesis and progression.

Extended Recognition of the Histone H3 Tail by Histone Demethylase KDM5A.

Project description:Human lysine demethylase KDM5A is a chromatin-modifying enzyme associated with transcriptional regulation, because of its ability to catalyze removal of methyl groups from methylated lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4me3). Amplification of KDM5A is observed in many cancers, including breast cancer, prostate cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, lung cancer, and gastric cancer. In this study, we employed alanine scanning mutagenesis to investigate substrate recognition of KDM5A and identify the H3 tail residues necessary for KDM5A-catalyzed demethylation. Our data show that the H3Q5 residue is critical for substrate recognition by KDM5A. Our data also reveal that the protein-protein interactions between KDM5A and the histone H3 tail extend beyond the amino acids proximal to the substrate mark. Specifically, demethylation activity assays show that deletion or mutation of residues at positions 14-18 on the H3 tail results in an 8-fold increase in the KMapp, compared to wild-type 18mer peptide, suggesting that this distal epitope is important in histone engagement. Finally, we demonstrate that post-translational modifications on this distal epitope can modulate KDM5A-dependent demethylation. Our findings provide insights into H3K4-specific recognition by KDM5A, as well as how chromatin context can regulate KDM5A activity and H3K4 methylation status.

Structure-Based Engineering of Irreversible Inhibitors against Histone Lysine Demethylase KDM5A.

Project description:The active sites of hundreds of human ?-ketoglutarate (?KG) and Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenases are exceedingly well preserved, which challenges the design of selective inhibitors. We identified a noncatalytic cysteine (Cys481 in KDM5A) near the active sites of KDM5 histone H3 lysine 4 demethylases, which is absent in other histone demethylase families, that could be explored for interaction with the cysteine-reactive electrophile acrylamide. We synthesized analogs of a thienopyridine-based inhibitor chemotype, namely, 2-((3-aminophenyl)(2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethoxy)methyl)thieno[3,2- b]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid (N70) and a derivative containing a (dimethylamino)but-2-enamido)phenyl moiety (N71) designed to form a covalent interaction with Cys481. We characterized the inhibitory and binding activities against KDM5A and determined the cocrystal structures of the catalytic domain of KDM5A in complex with N70 and N71. Whereas the noncovalent inhibitor N70 displayed ?KG-competitive inhibition that could be reversed after dialysis, inhibition by N71 was dependent on enzyme concentration and persisted even after dialysis, consistent with covalent modification.

Structural Basis for KDM5A Histone Lysine Demethylase Inhibition by Diverse Compounds.

Project description:The KDM5/JARID1 family of Fe(II)- and α-ketoglutarate-dependent demethylases removes methyl groups from methylated lysine 4 of histone H3. Accumulating evidence supports a role for KDM5 family members as oncogenic drivers. We compare the in vitro inhibitory properties and binding affinity of ten diverse compounds with all four family members, and present the crystal structures of the KDM5A-linked Jumonji domain in complex with eight of these inhibitors in the presence of Mn(II). All eight inhibitors structurally examined occupy the binding site of α-ketoglutarate, but differ in their specific binding interactions, including the number of ligands involved in metal coordination. We also observed inhibitor-induced conformational changes in KDM5A, particularly those residues involved in the binding of α-ketoglutarate, the anticipated peptide substrate, and intramolecular interactions. We discuss how particular chemical moieties contribute to inhibitor potency and suggest strategies that might be utilized in the successful design of selective and potent epigenetic inhibitors.

Histone demethylase KDM5A regulates the ZMYND8-NuRD chromatin remodeler to promote DNA repair.

Project description:Upon DNA damage, histone modifications are dynamically reshaped to accommodate DNA damage signaling and repair within chromatin. In this study, we report the identification of the histone demethylase KDM5A as a key regulator of the bromodomain protein ZMYND8 and NuRD (nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylation) complex in the DNA damage response. We observe KDM5A-dependent H3K4me3 demethylation within chromatin near DNA double-strand break (DSB) sites. Mechanistically, demethylation of H3K4me3 is required for ZMYND8-NuRD binding to chromatin and recruitment to DNA damage. Functionally, KDM5A deficiency results in impaired transcriptional silencing and repair of DSBs by homologous recombination. Thus, this study identifies a crucial function for KDM5A in demethylating H3K4 to allow ZMYND8-NuRD to operate within damaged chromatin to repair DSBs.

Increased mitochondrial function downstream from KDM5A histone demethylase rescues differentiation in pRB-deficient cells.

Project description:The retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein pRb restricts cell growth through inhibition of cell cycle progression. Increasing evidence suggests that pRb also promotes differentiation, but the mechanisms are poorly understood, and the key question remains as to how differentiation in tumor cells can be enhanced in order to diminish their aggressive potential. Previously, we identified the histone demethylase KDM5A (lysine [K]-specific demethylase 5A), which demethylates histone H3 on Lys4 (H3K4), as a pRB-interacting protein counteracting pRB's role in promoting differentiation. Here we show that loss of Kdm5a restores differentiation through increasing mitochondrial respiration. This metabolic effect is both necessary and sufficient to induce the expression of a network of cell type-specific signaling and structural genes. Importantly, the regulatory functions of pRB in the cell cycle and differentiation are distinct because although restoring differentiation requires intact mitochondrial function, it does not necessitate cell cycle exit. Cells lacking Rb1 exhibit defective mitochondria and decreased oxygen consumption. Kdm5a is a direct repressor of metabolic regulatory genes, thus explaining the compensatory role of Kdm5a deletion in restoring mitochondrial function and differentiation. Significantly, activation of mitochondrial function by the mitochondrial biogenesis regulator Pgc-1α (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ-coactivator 1α; also called PPARGC1A) a coactivator of the Kdm5a target genes, is sufficient to override the differentiation block. Overexpression of Pgc-1α, like KDM5A deletion, inhibits cell growth in RB-negative human cancer cell lines. The rescue of differentiation by loss of KDM5A or by activation of mitochondrial biogenesis reveals the switch to oxidative phosphorylation as an essential step in restoring differentiation and a less aggressive cancer phenotype.

Histone demethylase KDM5A is regulated by its reader domain through a positive-feedback mechanism.

Project description:The retinoblastoma binding protein KDM5A removes methyl marks from lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4). Misregulation of KDM5A contributes to the pathogenesis of lung and gastric cancers. In addition to its catalytic jumonji C domain, KDM5A contains three PHD reader domains, commonly recognized as chromatin recruitment modules. It is unknown whether any of these domains in KDM5A have functions beyond recruitment and whether they regulate the catalytic activity of the demethylase. Here using biochemical and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based structural studies, we show that the PHD1 preferentially recognizes unmethylated H3K4 histone tail, product of KDM5A-mediated demethylation of tri-methylated H3K4 (H3K4me3). Binding of unmodified H3 peptide to the PHD1 stimulates catalytic domain-mediated removal of methyl marks from H3K4me3 peptide and nucleosome substrates. This positive-feedback mechanism--enabled by the functional coupling between a reader and a catalytic domain in KDM5A--suggests a model for the spread of demethylation on chromatin.

The histone demethylase KDM5A is a key factor for the resistance to temozolomide in glioblastoma.

Project description:Notwithstanding current multimodal treatment, including surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ), median survival of glioblastoma (GBM) patients is about 14 months, due to the rapid emergence of cell clones resistant to treatment. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms underlying chemoresistance is mandatory to improve treatments' outcome. We generated TMZ resistant cells (TMZ-R) from a GBM cell line and from cancer stem cell-enriched cultures isolated from human GBMs. We demonstrated that TMZ resistance is partially reverted by "drug wash-out" suggesting the contribution of epigenetic mechanisms in drug resistance and supporting the possibility of TMZ rechallenge in GBM patients after prior drug exposure. The expression of histone lysine demethylase genes (KDMs) was increased in TMZ-R cells compared to parental cells, and TMZ resistance or restored sensitivity was mimicked by over-expressing or inactivating KDM5A. Methylation and expression of O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and drug efflux mechanisms were not altered in TMZ-R cells compared to parental TMZ sensitive cells. TMZ-R cells transiently acquired morphologic and molecular characteristics of differentiated tumor cells, features that were lost after drug wash-out. In conclusion, we demonstrated that treatment-induced TMZ resistance in GBM involves epigenetic mechanisms in a subset of slow-cycling and transiently partially differentiated cells that escape drug cytotoxicity, overcome G2 checkpoint and sustain clonal growth. We found that TMZ-R cells are sensitive to histone deacethylase inhibitors (HDACi) that synergize with TMZ. This strong synergism could be exploited to develop novel combined adjuvant therapies for this rapidly progressing and invariably lethal cancer.

Genomic amplification and a role in drug-resistance for the KDM5A histone demethylase in breast cancer.

Project description:Lysine-specific demethylase 5A (KDM5A), an enzyme that removes activating H3K4 di- and trimethylation marks, plays critical roles in controlling transcription and chromatin architecture, yet its biological functions largely remain uncharacterized, particularly in the context of human cancer. In the present study, we found that the KDM5A gene was significantly amplified and over-expressed in various human tumors, including breast cancer. Reducing the expression of KDM5A by shRNA knockdown inhibited proliferation of KDM5A-amplified breast cancer cells. More importantly, we demonstrated that KDM5A over-expression was associated with breast cancer drug resistance. Furthermore, knockdown of KDM5A gene expression altered H3K4 methylation and induced upregulation of CDK inhibitors as well as genes mediating apoptotic cell death. Taken together, our study strongly links KDM5A histone demethylase activity to breast cancer proliferation and drug resistance, and suggests KDM5A is a potential target for breast cancer therapy.
