Project description:Actively transcribed genes in mammals are decorated by H3K79 methylation, which is correlated with transcription levels and is catalyzed by the histone methyltransferase DOT1L. DOT1L is required for mammalian development, and the inhibition of its catalytic activity has been extensively studied for cancer therapy; however, the mechanisms underlying DOT1L’s functions in normal development and cancer pathogenesis remain elusive. To dissect the relationship between H3K79 methylation, cellular differentiation, and transcription regulation, we systematically examined the role of DOT1L and its catalytic activity in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). DOT1L is dispensable for ESC self-renewal but is required for establishing the proper expression signature of neural progenitor cells, while catalytic inactivation of DOT1L has a lesser effect. Furthermore, DOT1L loss, rather than its catalytic inactivation, causes defects in glial cell specification. Although DOT1L loss by itself has no major defect in transcription elongation, transcription elongation defects seen with the super elongation complex inhibitor KL-2 are exacerbated in DOT1L knockout cells, but not in catalytically dead DOT1L cells, revealing a role of DOT1L in promoting productive transcription elongation that is independent of H3K79 methylation. Taken together, our study reveals a catalytic-independent role of DOT1L in modulating cell-fate determination and in transcriptional elongation control.

Project description:The recognition of modified histones by “reader” proteins constitutes a key mechanism regulating gene expression in the chromatin context. Compared with the great variety of readers for histone methylation, few protein modules that recognize histone acetylation are known. Here we show that the evolutionarily conserved YEATS domains constitute a novel family of acetyllysine readers. The human AF9 YEATS domain binds strongly to histone H3K9 acetylation and, to a lesser extent, H3K27 and H3K18 acetylation. Crystal structural studies revealed that AF9 YEATS adopts an eight-stranded immunoglobin fold and utilizes a serine-lined aromatic “sandwiching” cage for acetyllysine readout, representing a novel recognition mechanism that is distinct from that of known acetyllysine readers. Histone acetylation recognition by AF9 is important for the chromatin recruitment of the H3K79 methyltransferase DOT1L. Together, our studies identify the YEATS domain as a novel acetyllysine-binding module, thereby establishing the first direct link between histone acetylation and DOTL1-mediated H3K79 methylation in transcription control. ChIP-seq analysis of AF9, H3K79me3, H3K9ac in Hela cells and H3K79me3 in Hela AF9 knockdown and Hela Dot1L knockdown cells.

Project description:Cortical development is under control of transcriptional programs that are orchestrated by activation of key determinants such as transcription factors. But stable inheritance of temporo-spatial activity of factors influencing cell fate and regionalization in different layers is only partly understood. We report that chromatin methylation at H3K79 transmits cell fate and layering information from early to late progenitors. Activity of DOT1L, mediating H3K79 methylation, prevents premature cell cycle exit by increasing expression of genes regulating asymmetric cell division (Vangl2, Cenpj). Transcriptional programs characteristic for upper layer neurons are less active in Dot1l-deficient mice already at developmental stages that precede upper layer neuron generation. DOT1L activates expression of many key determinants such as Cux1, Cux2, Satb2 or Pou3f3. Additionally, DOT1L affects transcription of Sox family members, suggesting an evolutionary conserved mechanism. In part, DOT1L and H3K79me2 replace inactivating H3K9me3 at Sox family promoters and allow for transcriptional activation during neural differentiation.

Project description:Macrophages are critical immune cells in inflammatory diseases and their differentiation and function are tightly regulated by epigenetic alterations. H3K79 methylation is an epigenetic modification associated with active gene expression and DOT1L is the only histone methyltransferase for H3K79. Here we determine the role of DOT1L in macrophages by applying a selective DOT1L inhibitor in mouse and human macrophages and using myeloid-specific Dot1l deficient mice. We found that DOT1L directly regulates macrophage function by controlling lipid biosynthesis gene programs including central lipid regulators like sterol regulatory element-binding proteins SREBP1 and SREBP2. DOT1L inhibition also leads to macrophage hyperactivation which is associated with disrupted SREBP pathways. In vivo, myeloid Dot1l deficiency reduces atherosclerotic plaque stability and increases the activation of inflammatory plaque macrophages. Our data show that DOT1L is a crucial regulator of macrophage inflammatory responses and lipid regulatory pathways and suggests a high relevance of H3K79 methylation in inflammatory disease.

Project description:We wanted to investigate the effects of Dot1l deletion on gene expression in LSKs and GMPs of C57/BL6 mice Aberrant Hox gene activation is a recurrent feature in several different types of human leukemia, including leukemias with rearrangements of the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene. In this study, we demonstrate that Hox gene expression is controlled by higher degree H3K79 methylation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We show that the deposition of progressive H3K79 methylation states at the genomic loci of critical Hox genes is dependent on the interaction of the H3K79 methyltransferase Dot1l with Af10, a protein that is found in the Dot1l complex isolated from diverse cell types. Furthermore, abrogation of the Dot1l-Af10 interaction reverses aberrant epigenetic profiles found in the leukemia epigenome and impairs the transforming ability of mechanistically distinct AML oncogenes. Lineage negative Sca-1 positive Kit positive (LSK) cells and granulocyte macrophage progenitors (GMPs) were sorted from Dot1 wt/wt x Mx-Cre mice or Dot1l fl/fl x Mx-Cre mice were injected with PIPC. PIPC injection induced biallelic deletion of the Dot1l allele in the Dot1l fl/fl mice but not the Dot1l wt/wt mice. The Dot1l wt/wt LSKs and GMPs were compared to the Dot1l -/- counterparts by RNA extraction and Microarrays.
