Role of Histone H3 Lysine 27 Crotonylation in Gene Transcriptional Repression

ABSTRACT: Histone lysine acetylation and methylation regulate gene transcription through coordination of chromatin structure and transcriptional activity. However, our understanding of the role of histones in gene regulation is far from complete, in part due to newly discovered novel histone modifications, whose functions are yet to be uncovered1. Here we report that histone H3 lysine 27 crotonylation (H3K27cr) is selectively recognized by the YEATS domain of GAS41 in association with SIN3a-HDAC1/2 co-repressor complex for gene transcriptional repression. The GAS41 YEATS domain dimer binds proto-oncogenic transcription factor c-Myc, which recruits GAS41/SIN3a-HDAC1/2 complex to target gene loci in chromatin such as cell cycle inhibitor p21. Transcriptional de-repression of p21, directed by tumor suppressor p53 upon doxorubicin stimulation, entails dissociation of c-Myc/GAS41/SIN3a-HDAC1/2 complex from chromatin, reduced H3K27 crotonylation, and consequentially increased H3K27 acetylation at p21 locus. GAS41 knockout or H3K27cr binding depletion with CRISPR/Cas9 results in p21 activation, cell cycle arrest and tumor growth inhibition in mice. Our study explains mechanistically causal effect of GAS41 and c-Myc gene amplification on down-regulation of p21 in human colorectal cancer, and suggests GAS41 as an anti-cancer target. We propose that H3K27 crotonylation represents a previously unrecognized, distinct chromatin state for gene transcriptional repression in contrast to H3K27 trimethylation for long-term transcriptional silencing and H3K27 acetylation for transcriptional activation.

Gas41 links histone acetylation to H2A.Z deposition and stem cell identity maintenance

Project description:The histone variant H2A.Z is essential for maintaining the identity of embryonic stem cell (ESC) by keeping bivalent developmental genes at a poised state. However, how H2A.Z is deposited into the bivalent domains remains unknown. In mammals, two chromatin-remodeling complexes, Tip60/p400 and SRCAP, exchange the canonical histone H2A for H2A.Z in the chromatin. Here we show that Glioma Amplified Sequence 41 (Gas41), a shared subunit of the two H2A.Z-depositing complexes, functions as a reader of histone acetylation and recruits Tip60/p400 and SRCAP to deposit H2A.Z into specific chromatin regions including bivalent domains. The YEATS domain of Gas41 bound to acetylation on histone H3K27 and H3K14 both in vitro and in cells. Crystal structure of the Gas41 YEATS domain in complex with the H3K27ac peptide revealed that, similar to the AF9 and ENL YEATS domains, Gas41 YEATS forms a serine-lined aromatic cage for Kac recognition; mutations of either the aromatic residues of YEATS domain or the nearby residue of H3K27 abrogated the interaction. In mESCs, knockdown of Gas41 led to cell differentiation as the result of derepression of differentiation genes. Importantly, the differentiated morphology was rescued by expressing wild type Gas41, but not the YEATS domain mutated counterparts that do not recognize histone acetylation. Mechanically, we found that Gas41 depletion led to reduction of H2A.Z levels and a concomitant reduction of H3K27me3 levels at the promoters of a subset of bivalent genes. Together, our study identifies the Gas41 YEATS domain as a reader of histone acetylation and establishes a link between histone acetylation and H2A.Z deposition in the maintenance of ESC identity.

Recognition of histone acetylation by the GAS41 YEATS domain promotes H2A.Z deposition and tumorigenesis of non-small cell lung cancer

Project description:Histone acetylation is associated with active transcription in eukaryotic cells. It helps to open up the chromatin by neutralizing the positive charge of histone lysine residues, and by providing binding platforms for “reader” proteins. The bromodomain (BRD) has long been thought to be the sole protein module that recognizes acetylated histones. Recently, we identified the YEATS domain of AF9 as a novel acetyllysine-binding module, and showed that the ENL YEATS domain is an essential acetyl-histone reader in acute myeloid leukemias. The human genome encodes four YEATS domain proteins, including GAS41; however, the importance of the GAS41 YEATS domain, in human cancer remains largely unknown. Here we report that GAS41 is frequently amplified in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is required for cancer cell proliferation, survival, and transformation. Biochemical and crystal structural studies demonstrate that GAS41 binds to histone H3 acetylated on H3K27 and H3K14, a specificity that is distinct from that of AF9 or ENL. ChIP-seq analyses in lung cancer cells reveal that GAS41 colocalizes with H3K27ac and H3K14ac on the promoters of actively transcribed genes. Depletion of GAS41 or disruption of the interaction between its YEATS domain and acetylated histones impairs the association of histone variant H2A.Z with chromatin, and consequently, suppresses cancer cell growth and survival both in vitro and in vivo. Overall, our study identifies GAS41 as a histone acetylation reader that controls a transcriptional program essential for NSCLC tumorigenesis by modulating histone H2A.Z deposition.

GAS41 modulates ferroptosis by anchoring NRF2 on chromatin

Project description:Here, through genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screenings, we identified GAS41, a well-known histone reader as a major repressor for ferroptosis. GAS41 interacts with NRF2 and is critical for NRF2 to activate its targets such as SLC7A11 for modulating ferroptosis. By recognizing the H3K27-acetylation (H3K27-ac) marker, GAS41 is recruited to the SLC7A11 promoter independent of NRF2 binding. Notably, by bridging the interaction between NRF2 and the H3K27-ac marker, GAS41 acts as an anchor for NRF2 on chromatin in a promoter-specific manner for transcriptional activation. Moreover, the GAS41-mediated effect on ferroptosis contributes significantly to its oncogenic role in vivo. These data demonstrate that GAS41 is an important target for modulating tumor growth through ferroptosis. Our study reveals a previously unanticipated mechanism for GAS41-mediated regulation in transcription by anchoring NRF2 on chromatin and provides a model that the DNA binding activity on chromatin by transcriptional factors (NRF2) can be directly regulated by histone markers (H3K27-ac).

AF9 Links Histone Acetylation to DOT1L-Mediated H3K79 Methylation

Project description:The recognition of modified histones by “reader” proteins constitutes a key mechanism regulating gene expression in the chromatin context. Compared with the great variety of readers for histone methylation, few protein modules that recognize histone acetylation are known. Here we show that the evolutionarily conserved YEATS domains constitute a novel family of acetyllysine readers. The human AF9 YEATS domain binds strongly to histone H3K9 acetylation and, to a lesser extent, H3K27 and H3K18 acetylation. Crystal structural studies revealed that AF9 YEATS adopts an eight-stranded immunoglobin fold and utilizes a serine-lined aromatic “sandwiching” cage for acetyllysine readout, representing a novel recognition mechanism that is distinct from that of known acetyllysine readers. Histone acetylation recognition by AF9 is important for the chromatin recruitment of the H3K79 methyltransferase DOT1L. Together, our studies identify the YEATS domain as a novel acetyllysine-binding module, thereby establishing the first direct link between histone acetylation and DOTL1-mediated H3K79 methylation in transcription control. ChIP-seq analysis of AF9, H3K79me3, H3K9ac in Hela cells and H3K79me3 in Hela AF9 knockdown and Hela Dot1L knockdown cells.

SIN3A regulates porcine early embryonic development by modulating CCNB1 expression

Project description:SIN3A is the central scaffold protein of the SIN3/HDAC transcriptional repressor complex. We previously found that SIN3A participates in the mouse preimplantation development by finetuning HDAC1 expression. However, it remains unresolved if this functional significance of SIN3A was conserved in other mammals. The objective of this work was thus to characterize the expression profiles and the functional role of SIN3A in preimplantation development using non-rodent animal models. RNA-seq results show a large amount of SIN3A mRNA is present in oocytes and early embryos prior to embryonic genome activation and a low amount thereafter, suggesting a maternal origin of SIN3A in all species examined. Interestingly, immunofluorescence data show that SIN3A protein level peaks at 4-cell stage in pigs compared with morula stage in cattle, suggesting a differential role of SIN3A among species. Indeed, SIN3A depletion in early embryos causes a developmental arrest at 2-cell stage in pigs but does not affect bovine early embryonic development. In contrast with mouse data, SIN3A depletion results in only a slight decrease and even no difference in HDAC1 expression in porcine and bovine early embryos, respectively. In addition, HDAC1 knockdown does not cause 2-cell block, however, leads to a reduced blastocyst rate, suggesting the effect of SIN3A depletion on porcine early embryos is independent of HDAC1. By using un-biased RNA-seq approach, we found that CCNB1 transcript level is dramatically reduced. Moreover, CCNB1 knockdown results in a similar phenotype as SIN3A depletion. Injection of exogenous CCNB1 into SIN3A-depleted embryos could partly rescue embryonic development beyond 2-cell stage. In conclusion, our results indicate SIN3A plays an essential role in porcine early embryonic development, which probably involving the regulation of CCNB1 expression.

YEATS2 Links Histone Acetylation to Tumorigenesis of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Project description:Recognition of modified histones by “reader” proteins constitutes a key mechanism regulating diverse chromatin-associated processes important for normal and neoplastic development. For instance, bromodomain-containing proteins bind to acetylated histones and regulate chromatin dynamics and gene expression. We recently identified the YEATS domain as a novel acetyllysine-binding module; however, the functional importance of YEATS domain-containing proteins in human cancer remains largely unknown. Here we show that the YEATS2 gene is highly amplified in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is required for cancer cell growth and survival. Biochemical and crystal structural studies show that YEATS2 binds to acetylated histone H3, and the YEATS domain utilizes a serine-lined aromatic “sandwiching” cage for acetyllysine readout. ChIP-seq analyses in lung cancer cells reveal that the YEATS2-containing ATAC complex colocalizes with H3K27 acetylation (H3K27ac) on the promoters of actively transcribed genes. Depletion of YEATS2 or disruption of the interaction between its YEATS domain and acetylated histones reduces the ATAC complex-dependent promoter H3K9ac levels and deactivates the expression of essential genes, including the ribosomal protein-encoding genes, which are important for cancer cell growth and survival. Taken together, our study identifies YEATS2 as a histone H3K27ac specific reader that regulates a transcriptional program essential for NSCLC tumorigenesis.

SIN3A Acetylation Complex - Fam60a defines a variant Sin3a-Hdac complex in embryonic stem cells required for self-renewal

Project description:Sin3a is the central scaffold protein of the prototypical Hdac1/2 chromatin repressor complex, crucially required during early embryonic development for the growth of pluripotent cells of the inner cell mass. Here, we explore the endogenous composition of the Sin3a-Hdac complex in pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) and differentiated cells. To do this, we established an endogenous double immunoprecipitation strategy coupled with quantitative mass spectrometry (ENDIP-MS) allowing us to define the precise composition of the Sin3a complex in multiple cell types. We identify the Fam60a subunit as a key defining feature of a variant Sin3a complex present in ES cells, but not in differentiated cells. Fam60a co-occupies H3K4me3 positive promoters with Sin3a and is essential to maintain it on chromatin. Consistent with this, Fam60a depletion phenocopies the loss of Sin3a, leading to decreased proliferation, an extended G1-phase and the deregulation of genes associated with differentiation. Taken together, our data characterise Fam60a as an essential core subunit of a variant Sin3a complex in ES cells required to promote rapid proliferation and to prevent unscheduled differentiation.
