A somatic role for the histone methyltransferase Setdb1 in endogenous retrovirus silencing.

Project description:Subsets of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are derepressed in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) deficient for Setdb1, which catalyzes histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3). Most of those ERVs, including IAPs, remain silent if Setdb1 is deleted in differentiated embryonic cells; however they are derepressed when deficient for Dnmt1, suggesting that Setdb1 is dispensable for ERV silencing in somatic cells. However, H3K9me3 enrichment on ERVs is maintained in differentiated cells and is mostly diminished in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) lacking Setdb1. Here we find that distinctive sets of ERVs are reactivated in different types of Setdb1-deficient somatic cells, including the VL30-class of ERVs in MEFs, whose derepression is dependent on cell-type-specific transcription factors (TFs). These data suggest a more general role for Setdb1 in ERV silencing, which provides an additional layer of epigenetic silencing through the H3K9me3 modification.

The histone methyltransferase SETDB1 represses endogenous and exogenous retroviruses in B lymphocytes.

Project description:Genome stability relies on epigenetic mechanisms that enforce repression of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs). Current evidence suggests that distinct chromatin-based mechanisms repress ERVs in cells of embryonic origin (histone methylation dominant) vs. more differentiated cells (DNA methylation dominant). However, the latter aspect of this model has not been tested. Remarkably, and in contrast to the prevailing model, we find that repressive histone methylation catalyzed by the enzyme SETDB1 is critical for suppression of specific ERV families and exogenous retroviruses in committed B-lineage cells from adult mice. The profile of ERV activation in SETDB1-deficient B cells is distinct from that observed in corresponding embryonic tissues, despite the loss of repressive chromatin modifications at all ERVs. We provide evidence that, on loss of SETDB1, ERVs are activated in a lineage-specific manner depending on the set of transcription factors available to target proviral regulatory elements. These findings have important implications for genome stability in somatic cells, as well as the interface between epigenetic repression and viral latency.

E3-Independent Constitutive Monoubiquitination Complements Histone Methyltransferase Activity of SETDB1.

Project description:Ubiquitination typically occurs through the sequential action of three enzymes catalyzing ubiquitin activation (E1), conjugation (E2), and ligation (E3) and regulates diverse eukaryotic cellular processes. Although monoubiquitination commonly confers nondegradative activities, mechanisms underlying its temporal and spatial regulation and functional plasticity still remain largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that SETDB1, a major histone H3K9 methyltransferase is monoubiquitinated at the evolutionarily conserved lysine-867 in its SET-Insertion domain. This ubiquitination is directly catalyzed by UBE2E family of E2 enzymes in an E3-independent manner while the conjugated-ubiquitin (Ub) is protected from active deubiquitination. The resulting constitutive lysine-867 monoubiquitination is essential for SETDB1's enzymatic activity and endogenous retrovirus silencing in murine embryonic stem cells. Furthermore, the canonical hydrophobic patch on the conjugated-Ub is critical for Ub protection and function. Together, our findings highlight an E3-independent mechanism for monoubiquitination and reveal mechanistic details of SETDB1's enzymatic activity and the functional significance of its SET-Insertion.

Histone methyltransferase SETDB1 regulates liver cancer cell growth through methylation of p53.

Project description:SETDB1 is a histone H3K9 methyltransferase that has a critical role in early development. It is located within a melanoma susceptibility locus and facilitates melanoma formation. However, the mechanism by which SETDB1 regulates tumorigenesis remains unknown. Here we report the molecular interplay between SETDB1 and the well-known hotspot gain-of-function (GOF) TP53 R249S mutation. We show that in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) SETDB1 is overexpressed with moderate copy number gain, and GOF TP53 mutations including R249S associate with this overexpression. Inactivation of SETDB1 in HCC cell lines bearing the R249S mutation suppresses cell growth. The TP53 mutation status renders cancer cells dependent on SETDB1. Moreover, SETDB1 forms a complex with p53 and catalyses p53K370 di-methylation. SETDB1 attenuation reduces the p53K370me2 level, which subsequently leads to increased recognition and degradation of p53 by MDM2. Together, we provide both genetic and biochemical evidence for a mechanism by which SETDB1 regulates cancer cell growth via methylation of p53.
