BAHCC1 binds H3K27me3 via a conserved BAH module to mediate gene silencing and oncogenesis.

Project description:Trimethylated histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) regulates gene repression, cell-fate determination and differentiation. We report that a conserved bromo-adjacent homology (BAH) module of BAHCC1 (BAHCC1BAH) 'recognizes' H3K27me3 specifically and enforces silencing of H3K27me3-demarcated genes in mammalian cells. Biochemical, structural and integrated chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing-based analyses demonstrate that direct readout of H3K27me3 by BAHCC1 is achieved through a hydrophobic trimethyl-L-lysine-binding 'cage' formed by BAHCC1BAH, mediating colocalization of BAHCC1 and H3K27me3-marked genes. BAHCC1 is highly expressed in human acute leukemia and interacts with transcriptional corepressors. In leukemia, depletion of BAHCC1, or disruption of the BAHCC1BAH-H3K27me3 interaction, causes derepression of H3K27me3-targeted genes that are involved in tumor suppression and cell differentiation, leading to suppression of oncogenesis. In mice, introduction of a germline mutation at Bahcc1 to disrupt its H3K27me3 engagement causes partial postnatal lethality, supporting a role in development. This study identifies an H3K27me3-directed transduction pathway in mammals that relies on a conserved BAH 'reader'.

BAHCC1 couples H3K27me3 to gene silencing and tumorigenesis via a conserved BAH module [BAHCC1_KD_k27me3_293_ChIPseq]

Project description:Tri-methylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) regulates transcriptional repression, cell-fate determination and differentiation. We report that a conserved Bromo-Adjacent Homology (BAH) module harbored within BAHCC1, a previously uncharacterized chromatin regulator, ‘recognizes’ H3K27me3 specifically and enforces silencing of H3K27me3-demarcated genes in mammalian cells. Biochemical, structural and ChIP-seq-based analyses demonstrate that direct ‘readout’ of H3K27me3 by BAHCC1 is achieved through a hydrophobic trimethyl-lysine-binding ‘cage’ formed by the BAH domain, mediating co-localization of BAHCC1 and H3K27me3-marked genes. BAHCC1 is significantly overexpressed in human acute leukemia and biochemically, BAHCC1 interacts with repressors SAP30BP and HDAC. In acute leukemia, depletion of BAHCC1, or disruption of the BAHCC1 BAH-mediated ‘readout’ of H3K27me3, causes de-repression of H3K27me3-targeted genes that are involved in tumor suppression and cell differentiation, leading to the suppressed tumor growth. In mice, introduction of a germ-line mutation at Bahcc1 to disrupt its H3K27me3 engagement causes postnatal lethality, supporting a role of this pathway in development. Collectively, this study unveils a novel H3K27me3-directed transduction pathway in mammal cells that relies on a conserved BAH ‘reader’, deregulation of which contributes to oncogenesis.
