COMPASS core subunits MpSet1 and MpSwd3 regulate Monascus pigments synthesis in Monascus purpureus

ABSTRACT: In eukaryotes, methylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me) catalyzed by the complex of proteins associated with Set1 (COMPASS) is crucial for the transcriptional regulation of genes and the development of organisms. In Monascus, the functions of COMPASS in establishing H3K4me remain unclear. This study first identified the conserved COMPASS core subunits MpSet1 and MpSwd3 in Monascus purpureus and confirmed their roles in establishing H3K4me2/3. Loss of MpSet1 and MpSwd3 resulted in slower growth and development and inhibited the formation of cleistothecia, ascospores, and conidia. The loss of these core subunits also decreased the production of extracellular and intracellular Monascus pigments (MPs) by 94.2%, 93.5%, 82.7%, and 82.5%, respectively. In addition, RNA high-throughput sequencing and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) showed that the loss of MpSet1 and MpSwd3 altered the expression of 2646 and 2659 genes, respectively, and repressed the transcription of MPs synthesis-related genes. In addition, the ΔMpset1 and ΔMpswd3 strains demonstrated increased sensitivity to cell wall stress with the downregulation of chitin synthase-coding genes. These results indicated that the COMPASS core subunits MpSet1 and MpSwd3 help establish H3K4me2/3 for growth and development, spore formation, and pigment synthesis in Monascus. These core subunits also assist in maintaining cell wall integrity.

Distinct roles for COMPASS core subunits Set1, Trx, and Trr in the epigenetic regulation of Drosophila heart development

Project description:This study investigated the role Complex of Proteins Associated with Set1 (COMPASS) in heart development. These are evolutionarily highly conserved multiprotein complexes required for H3K4 methylation. In Drosophila, their core subunits are Set1, Trx, and Trr. We studied flies deficient for either of these three subunits their hearts. These flies showed high lethality at eclosion (emergence of adult flies from their pupal case) and significantly shortened lifespans for the adults that did emerge. Furthermore, their hearts showed reduced H3K4 monomethylation (H3K4me1) and dimethylation (H3K4me2), and significantly altered gene expression patterns. The data revealed that each of the COMPASS core subunits (Set1, Trx, and Trr) control methylation of different sets of genes with distinct temporal activity: Set1 throughout, whereas Trr was active early and Trx at later stages of heart development. We found that many metabolic pathways were active early in development and throughout, while muscle and heart differentiation processes were methylated during later stages of development. Taken together, the findings demonstrate the importance of COMPASS complexes during heart development, therewith supporting their implication in congenital heart diseases.

H3K9me2 protects lifespan against the transgenerational burden of germline transcription in C. elegans

Project description:Chromatin state influences lifespan and may allow for the epigenetic inheritance of this complex trait. At sites of active transcription, the COMPASS complex methylates histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me). In Caenorhabditis elegans, reductions in COMPASS extend lifespan, and wild-type descendants of COMPASS mutants inherit longevity for four generations. Here we show that the longevity of COMPASS mutants is itself a transgenerational trait caused by gradual changes in the repressive chromatin factor H3K9me2. H3K9me2 is required for longevity in COMPASS mutants and can confer longevity when increased in other chromatin modifier mutants. H3K9me2 levels also correlate with a transgenerational decline in wild-type lifespan after freezing or starvation. We propose that germline transcription-coupled H3K4me encroaches on H3K9me2 to limit lifespan. Loss of COMPASS complex alleviates the burden of H3K4me and therefore extends lifespan. This study suggests a causal role for a single heterochromatin factor in the establishment and inheritance of longevity.

Genome-wide Analysis of Mono-, Di- and Trimethylation of Histone H3 Lysine 4 in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:Background. Post-translational modifications of histones play important roles in regulating transcription by modulating the structural properties of the chromatin. In plants, methylation of histone H3 lysine4 (H3K4me) is associated with genes and required for normal plant development. Results. We have characterized the genome-wide distribution patterns of mono-, di- and trimethylation of H3K4 (H3K4me1, H3K4me2 and H3K4me3, respectively) in Arabidopsis thaliana using chromatin immunoprecipitation and high-resolution whole-genome tiling microarrays (ChIP-chip). All three types of H3K4me are found to be almost exclusively genic, and two thirds of Arabidopsis genes contain at least one type of H3K4me in seedlings. H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 accumulate predominantly in promoters and 5’ genic regions, whereas H3K4me1 is distributed within transcribed regions. In addition, H3K4me3-containing genes are highly expressed with low levels of tissue specificity, but H3K4me1 or H3K4me2 may not be directly involved in transcriptional activation. Furthermore, a genome-wide preferential co-localization of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 found in mammals does not appear to exist in plants, but H3K4me2 and H3K27me3 co-localize at a higher-than-expected frequency. Finally, the relationship between H3K4me and DNA methylation was explored by comparing the genome-wide distribution patterns of H3K4me1, H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 in wild type plants and the met1 DNA methyltransferase mutant. Conclusions. H3K4me plays widespread roles in regulating gene expression in plants. Although many aspects of the mechanisms and functions of H3K4me appear to be conserved among all three kingdoms, we observed significant differences in the relationship between H3K4me and transcription or other epigenetic pathways in plants and mammals.

Histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation regulates RNA polymerase II promoter-proximal pause-release

Project description:Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) is associated with transcriptional start sites and proposed to regulate transcription initiation. However, redundant functions of the H3K4 SET1/COMPASS methyltransferase complexes complicate elucidation of the specific role of H3K4me3 in transcriptional regulation. Here, we show that acute ablation of shared subunits of the SET1/COMPASS complexes leads to complete loss of all H3K4 methylation. H3K4me3 turnover occurs more rapidly than H3K4me1 and H3K4me2 and is dependent on KDM5 demethylases. Surprisingly, acute loss of H3K4me3 does not have detectable effects on transcriptional initiation but leads to a widespread decrease in transcriptional output, an increase in RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) pausing and slower elongation. Our study demonstrates a distinct role for H3K4me3 in transcriptional pause-release and elongation rather than transcriptional initiation.

H3K4me2/3 modulate the stability of RNA polymerase II pausing (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Modifications of histones are intricately linked with the regulation of gene expression, with demonstrated roles in various physiological processes and disease pathogenesis. Methylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4), implemented by the COMPASS family, is enriched at promoters and associated cis-regulatory elements, with H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) considered a hallmark of active gene promoters. However, the relative roles of deposition and removal of H3K4 methylation, as well as the extent to which these events contribute to transcriptional regulation have so far remained unclear. Here, through rapid depletion of either of two shared subunits of COMPASS family members, we reveal a dynamic turnover of H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 mediated by the KDM5 family of histone demethylases. Loss of H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 following COMPASS disruption does not impair the recruitment of TFIID and initiating RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Instead, their loss leads to reductions in the paused form of Pol II on chromatin while inducing the relative enrichment of the Integrator-PP2A (INTAC) termination complex, leading to reduced levels of elongating polymerases, thus revealing how H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 dynamics can regulate Pol II pausing to sustain or attenuate transcription.

Determinants of H3K4me pattern establishment

Project description:A hallmark of genes transcribed by RNA polymerase II (RNApII) is a "gradient" of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methylation. Various factors differentially bind to H3K4me3 near promoters, H3K4me2 just downstream, and H3K4me1 further downstream to modulate gene expression. Set1/COMPASS, the single S. cerevisiae H3K4 methyltransferase, binds transcribing RNApII, but COMPASS may also be allosterically regulated by specific subunits and histone H2B ubiquitylation. To ask whether differential H3K4 methylation is determined by regulated activity at specific gene locations or by the amount of time COMPASS spends near the nucleosome, ChIP-Seq analyses was performed in cells with altered transcription elongation rates or with Set1 fused to RNApII. Our results support a simple model where higher H3K4 methylations result from both increased duration and frequency of COMPASS proximity to the nucleosome.
