H3K4me2 regulates the recovery of protein biosynthesis and homeostasis from UV-induced DNA damage during development and aging

ABSTRACT: DNA damage causes cancer, impairs development and accelerates aging. UV irradiation induces transcription-blocking lesions and defects in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair lead to developmental failure and premature aging in humans. Following DNA repair, the homeostatic processes need to be reestablished to ensure development and maintain tissue functionality. Here, we report that in C. elegans removal of the MLL/COMPASS H3K4 methyltransferase exacerbates the developmental growth retardation and accelerates aging, while depletion of the H3K4 demethylase, SPR-5, promotes developmental growth and extends lifespan amid UV-induced damage. We demonstrate that specifically the DDR-induced H3K4me2 is associated with the activation of genes regulating RNA transport, splicing, ribosome biogenesis, and protein homeostasis and regulates the recovery of protein biosynthesis that is essential for survival of UV-induced DNA damage. Our study uncovers a role of H3K4me2 in coordinating the recovery of protein biosynthesis and homeostasis that is required for developmental growth and longevity after DNA damage.

DNA damage causes cancer, impairs development and accelerates aging. Transcription-blocking lesions and transcription-coupled repair defects lead to developmental failure and premature aging in humans. Following DNA repair, homeostatic processes need to be reestablished to ensure development and maintain tissue functionality. Here, we report that, in Caenorhabditis elegans, removal of the WRAD complex of the MLL/COMPASS H3K4 methyltransferase exacerbates developmental growth retardation and acce ...[more]

Project description:Background: The ability of an organism to repair DNA damage is implicated in carcinogenesis and aging. Interestingly expression profiling of Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) deficient segmental progeroid mice revealed gene expression changes resembling these observed in aged wild type animals. Our previous transcriptional profiling of NER-deficient C. elegans xpa-1 mutant showed overrepresentation of genes involved in lifespan determination and upregulation of several oxidative stress response genes (Fensgard et al. Aging 2010). However, since an independent study performed by Boyd and coworkers (Boyd et al. Mut Res 2010) showed limited number of changes in xpa-1 mutant. Therefore to independently validate that transcriptome modulation does take place in xpa-1 mutants, we performed another global gene expression profiling based on 5 independent biological replicates allowing more stringent statistical analysis. Results: In agreement with what was observed by Boyd and coworkers (Boyd et al. Mut Res 2010) current transcriptomic analysis detected fewer changes in xpa-1 C. elegans mutant with only a few genes regulated more than 4-fold. Nevertheless, Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis performed on statistically significantly regulated unique protein coding genes revealed overrepresentation of aging gene cluster. Moreover, as before, overexpression of several genes involved in oxidative stress responses was detected. Conclusion: More stringent statistical analysis predictably resulted in a smaller number of regulated genes and thus overrepresented GOs comparing to the earlier paper. However, major conclusions of the previous study can be still regarded as valid, as the most important aging GO is still overrepresented.

Activation of oxidative stress-responses and downregulation of insulin-like signaling (ILS) is seen in Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) deficient segmental progeroid mice. Evidence suggests that this is a survival response to persistent transcription-blocking DNA damage, although the relevant lesions have not been identified. Here we provide evidence for transcriptional reprogramming in NER-deficient C. elegans xpa-1 by transcriptomic and proteomic approaches. This reprograming is accompanied by increased intracellular ROS and ATP levels and lifespan shortening in xpa-1 mutant. Moreover we show that Base Excision Repair DNA glycosylase NTH-1 is upstream form the signaling events leading to transcriptomic changes, as its downregulation reverses overexpression of sod-3, gst-4 and aqp-1 genes, reduces intracellular ROS and ATP levels and reverses lifespan shortening observed in xpa-1 mutant. Surprisingly, however, these responses appear to not depend on cyclopurine levels, since these lesions are lower in xpa-1 C. elegans mutant than in the wild type. Finally, we also explore here which other upstream factors are necessary for transcriptional reprograming in xpa-1 mutant. Untreated Caenorhabditis elegans mutant deficient in xpa-1 and the wild type N2 strain were subjected to transcriptome analysis using Affymetrix platform. For each sample group five replicates were analyzed.
