DNMT1 reads heterochromatic H4K20me3 to reinforce DNA methylation of transposons

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation and trimethylated histone H4K20 (H4K20me3) constitute two important epigenetic mechanisms that frequently cooperate in silencing repetitive elements of the mammalian genome. However, it remains elusive how these two modifications crosstalk. Here, we report the specific readout of heterochromatin marks H4K20me3 by the first bromo-adjacent-homology (BAH1) domain of maintenance DNA methyltransferase DNMT1. Engagement of BAH1-H4K20me3 ensures heterochromatin targeting of DNMT1, and cooperates with the previously reported readout of H3K9me3/H3 ubiquitination by the RFTS domain to allosterically stimulate DNMT1’s activity at both global and focal levels. Interplay between RFTS and BAH1 domains profoundly impacts the maintenance of DNA methylation and genomic resistance to radiation damage. Together, our study provides a heterochromatin-regulated model for DNMT1 in which multivalent recognition of repressive histone modifications by DNMT1 directly influence the cellular landscape of DNA methylation and genomic stability.

A multivalent signal-transducing model for the DNMT1-mediated maintenance DNA methylation

Project description:Heterochromatin-specific histone modifications frequently coexist with mammalian DNA methylation to orchestrate a repressive chromatin state. However, it remains elusive how these epigenetic modifications crosstalk. Here, we report that the first bromoadjacent homology (BAH1) domain and the replication foci targeting sequence (RFTS) of maintenance DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 function as readers for H4K20me3 and H3K9me3, respectively. Engagements of H4K20me3 by BAH1 and H3K9me3 by RFTS ensure localization of DNMT1 to heterochromatin in cells, and cooperate with the RFTS-ubiquitination readout to allosterically stimulate DNMT1 s methylation activity at both global and focal levels. Strikingly, there is intramolecular crosstalk between the RFTS and BAH1 domains, which profoundly impacts the maintenance of DNA methylation and genomic resistance to radiation damage. Together, our study reveals an all-in-one model for DNMT1 in which repressive histone modifications directly influence the cellular landscape of DNA methylation and genomic stability, a process implicative of the DNMT1-related pathogenesis.

Genome-wide mapping of H4K20me3 in proliferating and senescent IMR90 cells.

Project description:Cellular senescence is a stable proliferation arrest and tumor suppressor mechanism. Abundance of histone modification, H4K20me3, has been reported to increase in senescent cells. Generally, H4K20me3 promotes formation of compacted transcriptionally silent constitutive heterochromatin, but its specific role in senescence is unknown. Here, we show that in senescent cells H4K20me3 is enriched at specific families of gene repeats (ZNFs, Olfactory Receptors, Protocadherins), and DNA sequences contained within senescence-associated heterochromatin (senescence-associated heterochromatin (SAHF)). Furthermore, in senescent cells, but not proliferating cells, H4K20me3 is also markedly enriched at bodies of repressed genes, including proliferation-promoting genes. Ectopic expression of SUV420H2, responsible for deposition of H4K20me3, reinforces senescence-associated proliferation arrest, and slows proliferation of transformed cells and tumorigenesis in vivo. These results indicate a dedicated role for H4K20me3 in control of nuclear organization and gene expression in senescent cells and stable senescence-associated proliferation arrest and tumor suppression.

H4K20me3 methyltransferase SUV420H2 shapes the chromatin landscape of pluripotent embryonic stem cells

Project description:Heterochromatin, which is a densely packed chromatin state that is transcriptionally silent, is a critical regulator of gene expression. However, it is unclear how the repressive histone modification, H4K20me3, or the histone methyltransferase, SUV420H2, regulate embryonic stem (ES) cell fate by patterning the epigenetic landscape. Here, we report that depletion of SUV420H2 leads to a near complete loss of H4K20me3 genome-wide, dysregulated gene expression, and delayed ES cell differentiation. SUV420H2-bound regions are enriched with repetitive DNA elements, which are de-repressed in SUV420H2 knockout ES cells. Moreover, SUV420H2 regulation of H4K20me3-marked heterochromatin controls chromatin architecture, including fine-scale interactions between gene regulatory elements in pluripotent ES cells. SUV420H2 plays a critical role in stabilizing the three-dimensional (3D) chromatin landscape of ES cells, where loss of SUV420H2 results in A/B compartment switching, perturbed chromatin insulation, and altered chromatin interactions of pericentric heterochromatin, indicative of localized decondensation. In addition, depletion of SUV420H2 resulted in compromised interactions between H4K20me3 and gene regulatory regions. Together, these findings describe a novel role for SUV420H2 in regulating the chromatin landscape of ES cells.

SMYD5 regulates H4K20me3-marked heterochromatin to safeguard ES cell self-renewal and prevent spurious differentiation [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Epigenetic regulation of chromatin states is thought to control the self-renewal and differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. However, the roles of repressive histone modifications such as trimethylated histone lysine 20 (H4K20me3) in pluripotency and development are largely unknown. Here, we show that the histone lysine methyltransferase SMYD5 mediates H4K20me3 at heterochromatin regions. Depletion of SMYD5 leads to compromised self-renewal, including dysregulated expression of OCT4 targets, and perturbed differentiation. SMYD5 bound regions are enriched with repetitive DNA elements. Knockdown of SMYD5 results in a global decrease of H4K20me3 levels, a redistribution of heterochromatin constituents including H3K9me3/2, G9a, and HP1α, and de-repression of endogenous retroelements. A loss of SMYD5-dependent silencing of heterochromatin nearby genic regions leads to upregulated expression of lineage-specific genes, thus contributing to the decreased self-renewal and accelerated differentiation of SMYD5-depeleted ES cells. Altogether, these findings implicate a role for SMYD5 in regulating ES cell self-renewal and H4K20me3-marked heterochromatin.

DNMT1 IP-MS alalysis to identify ubiquitin-dependent interacting partners

Project description:Stable inheritance of DNA methylation is critical for maintaining the differentiated phenotypes in multicellular organisms. However, the molecular basis ensuring high fidelity of maintenance DNA methylation is largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that two distinct modes of DNMT1 recruitment, one is DNA replication-coupled and the other is uncoupled mechanism, regulate the stable inheritance of DNA methylation. PCNA-associated factor 15 (PAF15) represents a primary target of UHRF1 and undergoes dual mono-ubiquitylation (PAF15Ub2) on chromatin. PAF15Ub2 specifically interacts with DNMT1 and controls the recruitment of DNMT1 in a DNA replication-coupled manner. Thus, loss of PAF15Ub2 results in impaired DNA methylation at sites replicating during early S phase. In contrast, outside of S phase or when PAF15 ubiquitylation is perturbed, UHRF1 ubiquitylates histone H3 to promote DNMT1 recruitment. Together, we identify replication-coupled and uncoupled mechanisms of maintenance DNA methylation, both of which collaboratively ensure the stable DNA methylation.

H4K20me3 methyltransferase SMYD5 controls heterochromatin and chromosome integrity during embryonic stem cell differentiation

Project description:Epigenetic regulation of chromatin states is thought to control gene expression programs during lineage specification. However, the roles of repressive histone modifications such as trimethylated histone lysine 20 (H4K20me3) in development and genome stability are largely unknown. Here, we show that depletion of SMYD5, a H4K20me3 methyltransferase, leads to decreased H4K20me3 and H3K9me3 ChIP-Seq levels, and de-repression of endogenous LTR/LINE elements during differentiation. SMYD5 depletion results in chromosomal aberrations and the formation of transformed cells that exhibit decreased H4K20me3 and H3K9me3 levels and an expression signature consistent with multiple human cancers. Moreover, dysregulated gene expression in SMYD5 cancer cells is associated with LTR/ERV elements and decreased H4K20me3. These findings implicate an important role for SMYD5 in maintaining chromosome integrity by regulating heterochromatin and repressing endogenous repetitive DNA elements during differentiation.
