Structural basis of H2A.Z recognition and H4K20 methylation by SUV420H2


ABSTRACT: DNA replication ensures the accurate transmission of genetic information during cell cycle. The interaction between histone methyltransferase SUV420H1 and histone variant H2A.Z plays a critical role in the licensing of early replication origins. However, the mechanism by which SUV420H1 preferentially recognizes H2A.Z-nucleosome and deposits H4 lysine 20 dimethylation (H4K20me2) on DNA replication origins remains elusive. Here, we determined the cryo-EM structures of SUV420H1 bound to H2A.Z-nucleosome or H2A-nucleosome. Our structures show that the SUV420H1 catalytic domain (CD) directly interacts with histone H4 and nucleosomal DNA, whereas a SUV420H1 arginine-rich motif (ARM) anchors to the acidic patch of the nucleosome. The N-terminal aminal acid residues of H4 (Aa 1-24) forms a lasso-shaped structure sandwiched between SUV420H1 CD and nucleosome. The lasso-shaped structure stabilizes the SUV420H1-nucleosome interaction and precisely projects the H4 K20 residue into the SUV420H1 catalytic center. Further analyses revealed a crucial role of SUV420H1 KR-loop (aminal acid residues 214-223), which spatially lies closely to H2A.Z specific residues D97/S98, in dictating the preference for H2A.Z-nucleosome. SUV420H1 K219A/R220A mutations reduced the activity of SUV420H1 for H4K20me2 modification, the preference of SUV420H1 for H2A.Z-nucleosome, and the efficiency of DNA replication initiation. Collectively, our findings elucidate how SUV420H1 preferentially recognizes H2A.Z-nucleosome to deposit H4K20me2 modification and shed light on therapeutic strategies targeting the DNA replication initiation.
