Comparative characterization of the seven H3K4 methyltransferases in Arabidopsis thaliana

ABSTRACT: Methylation of H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me) marks transcribed elements of eukaryotic genome, and their distribution alters dynamically through developmental stages and environmental change. These dynamic regulations are likely achieved by combinatorial work of H3K4me writers, which multi-cellular organisms carry multiple copies of. To better understand the chromatin targeting mechanisms of H3K4 methyltransferase in plants, here we comparatively characterized the seven H3K4 methyltransferases in model plants Arabidopsis. This work clarified, in combination with previous results, ATX1-5 (TRX/TRR-type methyltransferase) localizes on loci with specific sets of chromatin modifications and DNA motifs. Notably, ATX3 localizes to binding motifs of ASR3 and RAP2.11 transcriptional factors and also directly interacts with those TFs. ATXR7(SET1-type) and ATXR3 (non-canonical H3K4 methyltransferase) seemed co-transcriptional. Interestingly, ATXR3, the major H3K4me3 methyltransferase in Arabidopsis, was not associated with COMPASS, which suggests H3K4me3 regulation in plants and animals is divergent. Our work provides a foundation for understanding the regulation of H3K4 methyltransferases in plants.

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.

Characterization of Spp1-TAP and Mer2-TAP interactomes

Project description:Histone H3K4 methylation is a feature of meiotic recombination hotspots shared by many organisms including plants and mammals. Meiotic recombination is initiated by programmed double strand break (DSB) formation that in budding yeast is directed in gene promoters by histone H3K4 di/trimethylation. This histone modification is indeed recognized by Spp1, a PHD-finger containing protein that belongs to the conserved histone H3K4 methyltransferase Set1 complex. During meiosis, Spp1 binds H3K4me and recruits a DSB protein, Mer2, to promote DSB formation close to gene promoters. How Set1C and Mer2 related functions of Spp1 are connected is not clear.

SET DOMAIN GROUP 2 is the major histone H3 lysine-4 tri-methyltransferase in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:Post-translational modifications of histones play important roles in modulating chromatin structure and regulating gene expression. We have previously shown that over two thirds of Arabidopsis genes contain histone H3 methylation at lysine-4 (H3K4me), and that tri-methylation of H3K4 (H3K4me3) is preferentially located at actively transcribed genes. In addition, several Arabidopsis mutants with locus-specific loss of H3K4me have been found to display various developmental abnormalities. These findings suggest that H3K4me3 may play important roles in maintaining the normal expression of a large number of genes. However, the major enzyme(s) responsible for H3K4me3 has yet to be identified in plants, making it difficult to address questions regarding the mechanisms and functions of H3K4me3. Here we describe the characterization of SET DOMAIN GROUP 2 (SDG2), a large Arabidopsis protein containing a histone lysine methyltransferase domain. We found that SDG2 homologues are highly conserved in plants, and that the Arabidopsis SDG2 gene is broadly expressed during development. In addition, the loss of SDG2 leads to severe and pleiotropic phenotypes as well as the mis-regulation of a large number of genes. Consistent with our finding that SDG2 is a robust and specific H3K4 methyltransferase in vitro, the loss of SDG2 leads to a drastic decrease in H3K4me3 in vivo. Taken together, these results suggest that SDG2 is the major enzyme responsible for H3K4me3 in Arabidopsis, and that SDG2-dependent H3K4m3 is critical for regulating gene expression and plant development.

Genome-wide maps of histone modification in WT and MLL4-/- during brown preadipocyte differentiation

Project description:Enhancers play a central role in cell-type-specific gene expression and are marked by H3K4me1/2. Active enhancers are further marked by H3K27ac. However, the methyltransferases responsible for the deposition of H3K4me1/2 on enhancers remain elusive. Furthermore, the functions of these methyltransferases on enhancers and associated cell-type-specific gene expression are poorly understood. Here, we identify MLL4 (KMT2D) as a major H3K4 mono- and di-methyltransferase in mammalian cells. Using adipogenesis and myogenesis as model systems, we show that MLL4 exhibits cell-type- and differentiation-stage-specific genomic binding and is predominantly localized on enhancers. MLL4 co-localizes with lineage-determining transcription factors (TFs) on active enhancers during differentiation. Deletion of MLL4 dramatically decreases H3K4me1/2 and H3K27ac on enhancers and leads to severe defects in cell-type-specific gene expression and cell differentiation. Finally, we provide evidence that lineage-determining TFs recruit and require MLL4 to establish enhancers critical for cell-type-specific gene expression. Together, these results identify MLL4 as an H3K4 mono-/di-methyltransferase required for enhancer activation during cell differentiation. ChIP-Seq analyses of histone modifications (H3K4me1, H3K4me2, H3K4me3, and H3K27ac) at D0 (day 0) and D2 (day 2) of adipogenesis in WT (MLL3-/-) and MLL4 KO (MLL3-/-;MLL4-/-) brown preadipocytes.

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.

MT-MAMS: protein methyltransferase motif analysis by mass spectrometry

Project description:Protein methyltransferases can recognise their substrates through linear sequence motifs and determination of these motifs is critical to understand methyltransferase mechanism, function and drug targeting. Here we describe MT-MAMS (methyltransferase motif analysis by mass spectrometry), a quantitative approach to characterise methyltransferase substrate recognition motifs and enzyme processivity. We validated MT-MAMS by application to lysine methyltransferase G9a, then determined the recognition motifs of Efm1 and major arginine methyltransferases Hmt1 and PRMT1.
