Project description:All living cells require a minimal iron threshold to sustain anabolic metabolism. However, the mechanisms by which cells sense iron to regulate anabolic processes are unclear. Here, we report a universal eukaryotic pathway for iron sensing in which molecular iron is required to sustain active histone demethylation and maintain the expression of critical components of the pro-anabolic mTORC1 pathway. Specifically, we identify the iron-binding histone-demethylase KDM3B as an intrinsic iron sensor that regulates mTORC1 activity by demethylating H3K9me2 at enhancers of a high-affinity leucine transporter and RAPTOR. By directly suppressing leucine availability and RAPTOR levels, iron deficiency (ID) supersedes other nutrient inputs into mTORC1. This process occurs in vivo, and is not an indirect effect by canonical iron-utilizing pathways. These data demonstrate a novel mechanism of eukaryotic iron sensing through dynamic chromatin remodeling and repression of mTORC1 mediated anabolism. Due to ancestral eukaryotes sharing homologues of KDMs and mTORC1 core components, this pathway likely predated the emergence of the other kingdom-specific nutrient sensors for mTORC1.

Project description:Dimethylation at histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9me2), a critical mark for heterochromatin formation and transcriptional silencing, is usually methylated at transposable elements and repetitive sequences but unmethylated at bodies of protein-coding genes. It is known that deposition of H3K9me2 is essential for proper prophase progression in both mammals and plants. Nevertheless, function of removing H3K9me2 for meiosis is unknown. In this study, we show that H3K9 demethylases, IBM1 and JMJ27, together regulate chromosome pairing and segregation in early meiosis, through protecting thousands of protein-coding genes from ectopic H3K9me2, including meiotic-essential genes. In addition to IBM1 and JMJ27, we also found that the cohesin complex cofactors Precocious Dissociation of Sisters 5 (PDS5s) regulate the expression of essential meiotic genes by interacting with H3K9 demethylases, acting downstream of H3K9 demethylation. Therefore, H3K9 demethylases and PDS5s coordinately regulate male meiosis through regulating the expression of meiotic-essential genes. These findings provide insights into a novel function of removing H3K9me2 for meiosis and deeper understanding of the H3K9 demethylation-mediated transcriptional activation pathway.

Elevated expression of KDM3B targets is associated with reduced survival in a subset of human cancers and ID represses mTORC1 in patient-derived tumor cells and sensitizes cancer cells to chemotherapy. These data demonstrate a novel mechanism of eukaryotic iron sensing through dynamic chromatin remodeling and repression of mTORC1 mediated anabolism.

Project description:Histone H3 lysine-9 methylation (H3K9me) is essential for retinoblastoma protein (RB)-mediated heterochromatin formation, epigenetic silencing of S-phase genes and permanent cell cycle arrest or cellular senescence. Besides as an H3K4me demethylase, lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) has also been shown to promote H3K9 demethylation. However, it is unclear whether LSD1 plays any roles in regulating cell cycle entry and senescence. Here we demonstrate that genetic depletion or pharmacological inhibition of LSD1 triggers G1 arrest and cellular senescence. Genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis reveal that the binding sites of LSD1 significantly overlaps with those bound by the S-phase gene transcription factor E2F1. Gene ontology (GO) analysis demonstrates that a large portion of E2F1 and LSD1 co-targeted genes are involved in cell cycle and proliferation. Further analyses show that depletion of LSD1 not only inhibits expression of the LSD1-E2F1 co-target genes, but also decreases the level of H3K9me2, but not H3K4me2 in those loci. Furthermore, the enzymatic activity of LSD1 is essential for H3K9me2 demethylation at cell cycle gene loci. Notably, co-treatment of chemotherapeutic agent camptothecin (CPT) enhanced LSD1 inhibitor-induced senescence and growth inhibition of cancer cells in vitro and in mice. Our data reveal LSD1 as a molecular rheostat regulating selective H3K9 demethylation at cell cycle gene loci, thereby representing a key event in oncogenesis and a viable target for cancer therapy.

Project description:Histone methylation patterns regulate gene expression and are highly dynamic during development. The erasure of histone methylation is carried out by histone demethylase enzymes. We had previously shown that vitamin C enhances the activity of Tet enzymes in embryonic stem (ES) cells, leading to DNA demethylation and activation of germline genes. We report here that vitamin C induces a remarkably specific demethylation of histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) in ES cells. Vitamin C treatment reduces global levels of H3K9me2, but not other histone methylation marks analyzed, as measured by Western blot, immunofluorescence and mass spectrometry. Vitamin C leads to widespread loss of H3K9me2 at large chromosomal domains as well as gene promoters and repeat elements. Vitamin C-induced loss of H3K9me2 occurs rapidly within 24 hours and is reversible. Importantly, we found that the histone demethylases Kdm3a and Kdm3b are required for vitamin C-induced demethylation of H3K9me2. Moreover, we show that vitamin C-induced Kdm3a/b-mediated H3K9me2 demethylation and Tet-mediated DNA demethylation are independent processes. Lastly, we document Kdm3a/b are partially required for the up-regulation of germline genes by vitamin C. These results reveal a specific role for vitamin C in histone demethylation in ES cells, and document that DNA methylation and H3K9me2 cooperate to silence germline genes in pluripotent cells.

Project description:Here we show the repressive H3K9me2 mark is specifically removed by the induction of m6A-modified transcripts. We demonstrate that the methyltransferase METTL3/METTL14 regulates H3K9me2 modification. We observed a genome-wide correlation between m6A and occupancy by the H3K9me2 demethylase KDM3B, and we found m6A reader YTHDC1 physically interacts and recruits KDM3B to m6A-associated chromatin regions, promoting H3K9me2 demethylation and gene expression. This study establishes a direct link between m6A and dynamic chromatin modification and provides mechanistic insight into the co-transcriptional interplay between RNA modification and histone modifications.
