CpG islands recruit a histone H3 lysine 36 demethylase [Illumina sequencing data]

ABSTRACT: Eukaryotic gene expression profiles are largely defined by transcription factors that recognize specific DNA sequences in gene regulatory regions and impact RNA polymerase recruitment and transcription. In addition to specific core promoter regulatory elements, up to 70% of genes in higher eukaryotes are also characterized by an overrepresentation of cytosine/guanine base pairs (CpGs) surrounding promoters and gene regulatory units. These features, called CpG islands, were identified over twenty years ago but there remains little mechanistic evidence to suggest how these enigmatic elements contribute to promoter function, with the exception that they are refractory to epigenetic silencing by DNA methylation. Here we uncover a role for CpG islands in buffering gene regulatory elements from repressive histone H3 lysine 36 methylation by directly recruiting the H3K36 specific lysine demethylase enzyme KDM2A. KDM2A is recruited to CpG islands by a zinc finger CxxC (ZF-CxxC) domain that specifically recognizes CpG DNA and is blocked by DNA methylation. This capacity to sense the epigenetic methylation state of DNA constrains KDM2A to non-methylated CpG islands. Importantly, these observations suggest CpG islands may function to delineate gene regulatory elements from bulk chromatin by recruiting factors that create unique chromatin architecture.

CpG islands recruit a histone H3 lysine 36 demethylase [Agilent data]

Project description:Transcription factors that bind small DNA motifs embedded in promoters play a central role in controlling gene expression. However, in addition to these elements, up to 70% of genes in higher eukaryotes also have high levels of non-methylated cytosine/guanine base pairs (CpGs) surrounding promoters and gene regulatory units. These features, called CpG islands, were identified over twenty years ago but there remains little mechanistic evidence to suggest how these enigmatic elements contribute to promoter function, with the exception that they are refractory to epigenetic silencing by DNA methylation. Here we show that CpG islands directly recruit the H3K36 specific lysine demethylase enzyme KDM2A. Genome wide analyses by ChIP-seq demonstrated a striking global association of KDM2A with CpG islands. Nucleation of KDM2A at these elements resulted in removal of H3K36 methylation creating CpG island chromatin that is uniquely depleted of this modification. KDM2A utilizes a zinc finger CxxC (ZF-CxxC) domain that specifically recognizes non-methylated CpG DNA and binding is blocked when the CpG DNA is methylated, thus constraining KDM2A to nonmethylated CpG islands. These data expose a remarkably straightforward mechanism through which KDM2A delineates a unique architecture that differentiates CpG island chromatin from bulk chromatin.

Lysine-specific demethylase 2A enhances binding of various nuclear factors to CpG-rich genomic DNAs by action of its CXXC-PHD domain

Project description:The lysine-specific demethylase 2A gene (KDM2A) is ubiquitously expressed and its transcripts consist of several alternatively spliced forms, including KDM2A and the shorter form N782 that lacks the 3’ end encoding F-box and LRR. KDM2A binds to numerous CpG-rich genomic loci and regulates various cellular activities; however, the mechanism of the pleiotropic function is unknown. Here, we identify the mechanism of KDM2A played by its CXXC-PHD domain. KDM2A is necessary for a rapid proliferation of post-natal keratinocytes while its 3’ end eclipses the stimulatory effect. EGFP-N782 binds to chromatin together with the XRCC5/6 complex, and the CXXC-PHD domain regulates the CpG-rich IGFBPL1 promoter. In vitro, CXXC-PHD enhances binding of nuclear extract ORC3 to the CpG-rich promoter, but not to the AT-rich DIP2B promoter to which ORC3 binds constitutively. Furthermore, CXXC-PHD recruits 94 nuclear factors involved in replication, ribosome synthesis, and mitosis, including POLR1A to the IGFBPL1 promoter. This recruitment is unprecedented; however, the result suggests that these nuclear factors bind to their cognate loci, as substantiated by the result that CXXC-PHD recruits POLR1A to the rDNA promoter. We propose that CXXC-PHD promotes permissiveness for nuclear factors to interact, but involvement of the XRCC5/6 complex in the recruitment is undetermined.

KDM2B binds CpG islands and modulates recruitment of Ring1b

Project description:CpG island elements are associated with most mammalian gene promoters, yet how they contribute to gene regulation remains poorly understood. Recently it has become clear that a subset of CpG islands in embryonic stem cells can act as polycomb response elements and are recognized by the polycomb silencing systems to regulate the expression of genes involved in pluripotency and early developmental transcription programs. How CpG islands function mechanistically as nucleation sites for polycomb repressive complexes remains unknown. Here we discover that the KDM2B protein, by virtue of its ZF-CxxC DNA binding domain, specifically recognizes non-methylated DNA in CpG islands elements genome-wide. Through a physical interaction with the polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1), KDM2B targets PRC1 to CpG islands where it contributes to H2AK119ub1 and gene repression at a subset of polycomb targets. Unexpectedly, we also find that CpG islands are occupied by low levels of PRC1 throughout the genome, suggesting that the KDM2B-PRC1 complex may sample CpG island associated genes for susceptibility to polycomb mediated silencing. These observations demonstrate an unexpected and direct link between recognition of CpG islands by KDM2B and targeting of the polycomb repressive system. This provides the basis for a new model describing the functionality of CpG islands as mammalian PREs. ChIP-Seq to compare KDM2A vs. KDM2B genome-wide binding profiles and to understand the contribution of KDM2B to RING1B nucleation. Binding of Kdm2a and Kdm2b to the genome was examined in wildtype mESC, and Kdm2b and Ring1b in mESC where Kdm2b has been stably knocked down by shRNA.

CXXC5 stabilizes DNA methylation patterns in mouse embryonic stem cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:Mammalian genomes encode a family of 12 proteins that contain a CXXC zinc finger domain. These domains are known to bind to unmethylated DNA sequences rich in CpG dinucleotides. Most members of this family are large multi-domain proteins that function in the control of DNA methylation and histone methylation patterns. CXXC5 is a smaller member of the family, along with its closest homologue CXXC4. These two proteins lack known catalytic domains. Here we have characterized CXXC5 in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. We show that CXXC5 is a nuclear protein that interacts with 5-methylcytosine oxidases (TET proteins). Removal of CXXC5 from ES cells leads to very few changes in gene expression. CXXC5 extensively colocalizes with TET1 and TET2 at CpG islands. CXXC5 inactivation leads to a substantial reduction of DNA methylation levels that affects all genomic compartments including genic and intergenic regions and CpG island shores. No hypermethylation of CpG islands was observed. We propose a model in which CXXC5 serves as an anchor for TET proteins at CpG islands. In the absence of CXXC5, the 5-methylcytosine oxidases become dislodged from CpG islands and are enabled to induce genome-scale DNA demethylation. Thus, CXXC5 serves as a stabilizer of DNA methylation patterns.

CpG island mediated linear and spatial gene partitioning (ChIP-seq)

Project description:In order to elucidate the general rules for gene localization and regulation mediated by CpG islands, we reanalyzed published ChIP-seq data of CXXC domain, H3K9me3, KDM2A, SUV39H1, ATF4, MYBL1, MYOD1, SPI1, and CTCF. Raw data were downloaded from Sequence Read Archive (SRA) in National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database. FASTQ files were extracted with the SRA Toolkit version 2.5.5 and aligned using Bowtie 2.2.5 onto the mouse and human genome (mm9 and hg19, respectively). For the identification of factor binding sites, model-based analysis for ChIP-seq peak caller (MACS 1.4.2) was used with a p-value cutoff of 1e-5.
