Differential H3K4 methylation identifies developmentally poised hematopoietic genes

ABSTRACT: We assess the concordance of histone H3 lysine 4 dimethylation (H3K4me2) and trimethylation (H3K4me3) on a genome-wide scale in erythroid development by analyzing pluripotent, multipotential and unipotent cell types. Although H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 are concordant at most genes, multipotential hematopoietic cells have a subset of genes that are differentially methylated (H3K4me2+/me3-). These genes are transcriptionally silent, highly enriched in lineage-specific hematopoietic genes, and uniquely susceptible to differentiation-induced H3K4 demethylation. Self-renewing embryonic stem cells, which restrict H3K4 methylation to genes that contain CpG islands (CGIs), lack H3K4me2+/me3- genes. These data reveal distinct epigenetic regulation of CGI and non-CGI genes during development and indicate an interactive relationship between DNA sequence and differential H3K4 methylation in lineage-specific differentiation. Keywords: comparison of different cell lines

Histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation regulates RNA polymerase II promoter-proximal pause-release

Project description:Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) is associated with transcriptional start sites and proposed to regulate transcription initiation. However, redundant functions of the H3K4 SET1/COMPASS methyltransferase complexes complicate elucidation of the specific role of H3K4me3 in transcriptional regulation. Here, we show that acute ablation of shared subunits of the SET1/COMPASS complexes leads to complete loss of all H3K4 methylation. H3K4me3 turnover occurs more rapidly than H3K4me1 and H3K4me2 and is dependent on KDM5 demethylases. Surprisingly, acute loss of H3K4me3 does not have detectable effects on transcriptional initiation but leads to a widespread decrease in transcriptional output, an increase in RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) pausing and slower elongation. Our study demonstrates a distinct role for H3K4me3 in transcriptional pause-release and elongation rather than transcriptional initiation.

H3K4me3 regulates RNA polymerase II promoter-proximal pause-release

Project description:Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) is associated with transcriptional start sites and proposed to regulate transcription initiation. However, redundant functions of the H3K4 SET1/COMPASS methyltransferase complexes complicate elucidation of the specific role of H3K4me3 in transcriptional regulation. Here, by using mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) as a model system, we show that acute ablation of shared subunits of the SET1/COMPASS complexes leads to complete loss of all H3K4 methylation. H3K4me3 turnover occurs more rapidly than H3K4me1 and H3K4me2 and is dependent on KDM5 demethylases. Surprisingly, acute loss of H3K4me3 does not have detectable effects on transcriptional initiation but leads to a widespread decrease in transcriptional output, an increase in RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) pausing and slower elongation. Notably, we show that H3K4me3 is required for the recruitment of the Integrator Complex Subunit 11 (INTS11), which is essential for the eviction of paused RNAPII and transcriptional elongation. Thus, our study demonstrates a distinct role for H3K4me3 in transcriptional pause-release and elongation rather than transcriptional initiation.

Histone Demethylase Lsd1 is Required to Repress Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cell Signatures During Blood Cell Maturation

Project description:Here we describe that lysine-specific demethylase 1 (Lsd1/KDM1a), which demethylates histone H3 on LysM-bM-^@M-^I4 or LysM-bM-^@M-^I9 (H3K4/K9), is an indispensible epigenetic governor of hematopoietic differentiation. Integrative genomic analysis in primary hematopoietic cells, combining global occupancy of Lsd1, genome-wide analysis of its histone substrates H3K4 mono- and di-methylation and gene expression profiling, reveals that Lsd1 represses hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) gene expression programs during hematopoietic differentiation. We found that Lsd1 function was not restricted to transcription start sites, but is also critical at enhancers. Loss of Lsd1 at these sites was associated with increased H3K4me1 and H3K4me2 methylation levels on HSPC genes and their derepression. Failure to fully silence HSPC genes compromised differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells and mature blood cell lineages. Our data indicate that Lsd1-mediated concurrent repression of enhancer and promoter activity of stem and progenitor cell genes is a pivotal epigenetic mechanism required for proper hematopoietic maturation. To identify direct target genes of Lsd1 in myeloid cells we mapped global occupancy of Lsd1 in 32D granuolocytic progenitor cells and compared H3K4me1/me2/me3 and H3K27ac histone modifications in Lsd1fl/fl (wild type) vs. Lsd1fl/f Mx1Cre (knockout) Gr1dim Mac1 granuolocytic progenitor cells.

Global mapping of epigenetic modifications of histone H3 Lysine 4 di- and trimethylation in Rice

Project description:We present high-resolution maps of DNA methylation and H3K4 di- and tri-methylation of two entire chromosomes and two fully sequenced centromeres in rice shoots and cultured cells. Most transposable elements have highly methylated DNA but no H3K4 methylation whereas over half of protein-coding genes have both methylated DNA and di- and/or tri-methylated H3K4. Methylation of DNA but not H3K4 correlates with suppressed transcription. In contrast, if both DNA and H3K4 are methylated transcription is only slightly reduced. Transcriptional activity was positively correlated with H3K4Me3/H3K4Me2 within the gene body: genes with predominantly H3K4Me3 were actively transcribed whereas genes with predominantly H3K4Me2 were transcribed at moderate levels. Both H3K4Me2 and H3K4Me3 exhibited two peaks in long rice genes; a minor peak correlated with putative transcription start sites and a major peak downstream, implying possible roles in transcriptional initiation and elongation. Keywords: whole genome profiling, DNA methylation, ChIP

The SAM domain-containing protein 1 (SAMD1) acts as a repressive chromatin regulator at unmethylated CpG islands

Project description:CpG-islands (CGIs) are key regulatory DNA elements at most promoters, but how they influence the chromatin status and transcription remains elusive. Here we identify and characterize SAMD1 (SAM domain-containing protein 1) as an unmethylated CGI-binding protein. SAMD1 possesses an atypical winged-helix domain that directly recognizes unmethylated CpG-containing DNA via simultaneous interactions with both the major and the minor groove. The SAM domain interacts with L3MBTL3, but it can also homopolymerize into a closed pentameric ring. At a genome-wide level, SAMD1 localizes to H3K4me3-decorated CGIs, where it acts as a repressor. SAMD1 tethers L3MBTL3 to chromatin and interacts with the KDM1A histone demethylase complex to modulate H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 levels at CGIs, thereby providing a mechanism for SAMD1-mediated transcriptional repression. Absence of SAMD1 impairs ES cell differentiation processes, leading to mis-regulation of key biological pathways. Together, our work establishes SAMD1 as a novel chromatin regulator acting at unmethylated CGIs.

H3 Lysine 4 Is Acetylated at Active Gene Promoters and Is Regulated by H3 Lysine 4 Methylation

Project description:Methylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me) is an evolutionarily conserved modification whose role in the regulation of gene expression has been extensively studied. In contrast, the function of H3K4 acetylation (H3K4ac) has received little attention because of a lack of tools to separate its function from that of H3K4me. Here we show that, in addition to being methylated, H3K4 is also acetylated in budding yeast. Genetic studies reveal that the histone acetyltransferases (HATs) Gcn5 and Rtt109 contribute to H3K4 acetylation in vivo. Whilst removal of H3K4ac from euchromatin mainly requires the histone deacetylase (HDAC) Hst1, Sir2 is needed for H3K4 deacetylation in heterochomatin. Using genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), we show that H3K4ac is enriched at promoters of actively transcribed genes and located just upstream of H3K4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3), a pattern that has been conserved in human cells. We find that the Set1-containing complex (COMPASS), which promotes H3K4me2 and -me3, also serves to limit the abundance of H3K4ac at gene promoters. In addition, we identify a group of genes that have high levels of H3K4ac in their promoters and are inadequately expressed in H3-K4R, but not in set1 mutant strains suggesting that H3K4ac plays a positive role in transcription. Our results reveal a novel regulatory feature of promoter-proximal chromatin, involving mutually exclusive histone modifications of the same histone residue (H3K4ac and H3K4me).

H3K4me2/3 modulate the stability of RNA polymerase II pausing (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Modifications of histones are intricately linked with the regulation of gene expression, with demonstrated roles in various physiological processes and disease pathogenesis. Methylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4), implemented by the COMPASS family, is enriched at promoters and associated cis-regulatory elements, with H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) considered a hallmark of active gene promoters. However, the relative roles of deposition and removal of H3K4 methylation, as well as the extent to which these events contribute to transcriptional regulation have so far remained unclear. Here, through rapid depletion of either of two shared subunits of COMPASS family members, we reveal a dynamic turnover of H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 mediated by the KDM5 family of histone demethylases. Loss of H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 following COMPASS disruption does not impair the recruitment of TFIID and initiating RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Instead, their loss leads to reductions in the paused form of Pol II on chromatin while inducing the relative enrichment of the Integrator-PP2A (INTAC) termination complex, leading to reduced levels of elongating polymerases, thus revealing how H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 dynamics can regulate Pol II pausing to sustain or attenuate transcription.
