DNA methylation analysis of HCT116 after disruption of methyllysine reading and writing.

ABSTRACT: The chromatin-binding E3 ubiquitin ligase Ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) maintains DNA methylation patterning in cancer cells through multivalent histone and DNA recognition. The tandem Tudor domain (TTD) of UHRF1 is well-characterized as a reader of lysine 9 di- and tri-methylation on histone H3 (H3K9me2/me3) and, more recently, lysine 126 di- and tri- methylation on DNA ligase 1 (LIG1K126me2/me3). However, the functional significance and selectivity of these interactions remains unclear. In this study, we used protein domain microarrays to search for additional readers of LIG1K126me2, the preferred methyl state bound by the UHRF1 TTD. We show that the UHRF1 TTD binds LIG1K126me2 with high affinity and selectivity compared to other known methyllysine readers. Notably, and unlike H3K9me2/me3, the UHRF1 plant homeodomain (PHD) and its N-terminal linker (L2) do not contribute to multivalent LIG1K126me2 recognition along with the TTD. To test the functional significance of this interaction, we designed a LIG1K126me2 cell-penetrating peptide (CPP). Consistent with LIG1 knockdown in somatic cells, uptake of the CPP had no effect on the DNA methylation maintenance function of UHRF1. Further, we did not detect changes in bulk DNA methylation after chemical or genetic disruption of lysine methyltransferase activity. Collectively, these studies identify UHRF1 as a selective reader of LIG1K126me2 in vitro, implicate the UHRF1 TTD as a dispensable domain for DNA methylation maintenance, and call into question existing models of methyllysine-dependent DNA methylation maintenance in somatic cancer cells.

Identificaiton of novel acetylation sites in UHRF1 mediated by acetyltransferase MOF

Project description:The multi-domain protein UHRF1 (ubiquitin-like, containing PHD and RING finger domains, 1) recruits DNMT1 for DNA methylation maintenance during DNA replication. Here, we show that MOF (Males absent On the First) is an acetyltransferase of UHRF1 to acetylate UHRF1 at Lys670 in the pre-RING linker region whereas HDAC1 is a deacetylase of UHRF1 at the same site. The MOF/HDAC1-mediated acetylation in UHRF1 is cell-cycle regulated and peaks at G1/S phase, in line with the function of UHRF1 in recruiting DNMT1 to maintain DNA methylation. In addition, UHRF1 acetylation significantly enhances its E3 ligase activity and elimination of UHRF1 acetylation at these sites attenuates UHRF1-mediated H3 ubiquitination, which in turn impairs the DNMT1 recruitment and DNA methylation. Taken together, these findings not only identify MOF as a new acetyltransferase for UHRF1 but also reveal a novel mechanism underlying the regulation of DNA methylation maintenance through MOF-mediated UHRF1 acetylation.

PHD finger recognition of unmodified histone H3R2 links UHRF1 to regulation of euchromatic gene expression

Project description:Histone methylation occurs on both lysine and arginine residues and its dynamic regulation plays a critical role in chromatin biology. Here we identify the UHRF1 PHD domain (PHDUHRF1), an important regulator of DNA CpG methylation, as an unanticipated histone H3 unmodified arginine 2 (H3R2)-recognition modality. This conclusion is based on binding studies and co-crystal structures of the PHDUHRF1 bound to histone H3 peptides, where the guanidinium group of unmodified R2 forms an extensive intermolecular hydrogen bond network, with methylation of H3R2, but not H3K4 or H3K9, disrupting complex formation. We have identified direct target genes of UHRF1 from microarray and ChIP studies. Importantly, we show that UHRF1’s ability to repress its direct target gene expression is dependent on PHDUHRF1 binding to unmodified H3R2, thereby demonstrating the functional importance of this recognition event and supporting the potential for crosstalk between histone arginine methylation and UHRF1 function. UHRF1 protein was depleted in HCT116 cells by shRNA treatment. Total RNA was purified and used to determine the global gene transcription profiles by microarray assays. The UHRF1-regulated genes were identified by comparing the gene expression profiles of control and UHRF1-depleted HCT116 cells.

Single electron transfer between sulfonium and tryptophan enables site-selective photo crosslinking of methyllysine reader proteins

Project description:Reader proteins play significant roles in cell signaling from site-specific lysine methylation, but progress of new reader investigations is rather slow. Photoreactive crosslinkers enable the discovery of reader proteins, but the chemical synthesis required to optimize the placement of the photoreactive group is laborious. In addition, active intermediates such as nitrene and carbene may cause significant non-specific crosslinking. Here we report dimethylsulfonium as a methyllysine mimic that binds to specific readers and can subsequently crosslink to a conserved tryptophan inside the binding pocket through single electron transfer under UV irradiation. The crosslinking requires σ-π electron-donor-acceptor interaction between sulfonium and indole as a key step, facilitating excellent tryptophan site-selectivity and orthogonality to distinct methyllysine readers. Moreover, excited tryptophan without proximate sulfonium leads to minimal non-specific crosslinking from relaxation. This method could escalate the discovery of methyllysine readers from complex cell samples. Furthermore, this photo crosslinking concept could also be expanded to develop more types of microenvironment-dependent conjugations to site-specific tryptophan.

Gene expression profiles of uhrf1 mutant zebrafish

Project description:UHRF1 (Ubiquitin-like, containing PHD and RING finger domains, 1) recruits DNMT1 to hemimethylated DNA during replication, is essential for maintaining DNA methylation patterns during cell division and is suggested to direct additional repressive epigenetic marks. Uhrf1 mutation in zebrafish results in multiple embryonic defects including failed hepatic outgrowth, but the epigenetic basis of these phenotypes is not known. We find that DNA methylation is the only epigenetic mark that is depleted in uhrf1 mutants and make the surprising finding that despite the reduced organ size in uhrf1 mutants, genes regulating DNA replication and S-phase progression were highly upregulated. Further, there is a striking increase in BrdU incorporation in uhrf1 mutant cells, and they retained BrdU labeling over several days, indicating they are arrested in S-phase. Moreover, some of the label retaining nuclei co-localized with TUNEL positive nuclei, suggesting that arrested cells are responsible for apoptosis. Importantly, dnmt1 mutation phenocopies the S-phase arrest and hepatic outgrowth defects in uhrf1 mutants and Dnmt1 knock-down enhances the uhrf1 hepatic phenotype. Together, these data indicate that DNA hypomethylation is sufficient to generate the uhrf1 mutant phenotype by promoting an S-phase arrest. We thus propose that cell cycle arrest is a mechanism to restrict propagation of epigenetically deranged cells during embryogenesis. Genome-wide expression profiling was performed on 2 uhrf1 mutant and 2 wildtype zebrafish larvae (120 hours post fertilization) by using Zebrafish Genome Array (Affymetrix) according to manufacturer's instruction.

Uhrf1 control the proliferation and the differentiation of satellite cells [RNA-Seq]

Project description:DNA methylation is an essential epigenetic regulation for cellular identity. In muscle stem cells, termed satellite cells, DNA methylation patterns are dynamically changed during muscle regeneration. However, how these DNA methylation patterns are maintained remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that a key epigenetic regulator Uhrf1 (ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1) is activated in proliferating but not expressed in quiescent or differentiated satellite cells. Ablation of Uhrf1 in satellite cell impairs the proliferation and differentiation of satellite cells, leading to failure of muscle regeneration. Loss of Uhrf1 in satellite cells alters transcriptional programs and leads to DNA hypomethylation with the activation of Cdkn1a and Notch signalling. Down-regulation of Cdkn1a and Notch signalling rescued the proliferation and differentiation defect in Uhrf1-deficient satellite cells. Therefore, this study suggest that Uhrf1 can regulate the self-renewal and differentiation of satellite cells through DNA methylation patterning.

Uhrf1 control the proliferation and the differentiation of satellite cells

Project description:DNA methylation is an essential form of epigenetic regulation responsible for cellular identity. In muscle stem cells, termed satellite cells, DNA methylation patterns are tightly regulated during differentiation. However, it is unclear how these DNA methylation patterns affect the function of satellite cells. We demonstrate that a key epigenetic regulator, ubiquitin like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (Uhrf1), is activated in proliferating myogenic cells but not expressed in quiescent satellite cells or differentiated myogenic cells in mice. Ablation of Uhrf1 in mouse satellite cells impairs their proliferation and differentiation, leading to failed muscle regeneration. Uhrf1-deficient myogenic cells exhibited aberrant up-regulation of transcripts, including Sox9, with the reduction of DNA methylation level of their promoter and enhancer region. These findings show that Uhrf1 is a critical epigenetic regulator of proliferation and differentiation in satellite cells, by controlling cell type-specific gene expression via maintenance of DNA methylation.

UHRF1 ubiquitin ligase activity supports the maintenance of low-density CpG methylation [BiSulfite-seq]

Project description:The E3 ubiquitin ligase UHRF1 is an established cofactor for replication-coupled DNA methylation inheritance. The current model posits a stepwise pathway in which UHRF1 engages nucleosomes through histone and DNA binding. This multivalent nucleosome readout directs UHRF1 ubiquitin ligase activity toward several lysines on N-terminal tails of histone H3, binding sites for DNMT1 through tandem ubiquitin interacting motifs (UIM1 and UIM2). While this elegant chromatin regulatory mechanism is now taking shape, the extent to which ubiquitin signaling through UHRF1 contributes to DNMT1-dependent DNA methylation maintenance genome-wide is not known. Here, we present comparative, genome-scale analysis of DNA methylation inheritance in human colon cancer cells with compromised UHRF1 ubiquitin ligase and DNMT1 ubiquitin reading activities. We reveal that DNA methylation maintenance in contexts of low CpG density is particularly vulnerable to disruption of UHRF1 ubiquitin ligase activity. This low CpG density hypomethylation signature, a common feature of partially methylated domains (PMDs) in human cancers, is also seen when DNMT1 ubiquitin reading activity through UIM1 is disrupted. Notably, disrupting UIM2 function affects DNA methylation inheritance to a similar extent as a catalytically dead form of the enzyme. Collectively, these studies demonstrate that DNMT1-dependent DNA methylation inheritance is a ubiquitin-regulated process and suggest that a disrupted UHRF1-DNMT1 ubiquitin signaling axis contributes to the development of PMDs in human cancers.
