  • Dedifferentiation by Adenovirus E1A Due to Inactivation of Hippo Pathway Effectors YAP and TAZ
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 3, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Dedifferentiation by adenovirus E1A due to inactivation of Hippo pathway effectors YAP and TAZ Nathan R. Zemke, Dawei Gou, and Arnold J. Berk Molecular Biology Institute, University of California at Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California 90095, USA Adenovirus transformed cells have a dedifferentiated phenotype. Eliminating E1A in transformed human embryonic kidney cells derepressed ∼2600 genes, generating a gene expression profile closely resembling mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). This was associated with a dramatic change in cell morphology from one with scant cytoplasm and a globular nucleus to one with increased cytoplasm, extensive actin stress fibers, and actomyosin-dependent flat- tening against the substratum. E1A-induced hypoacetylation at histone H3 Lys27 and Lys18 (H3K27/18) was reversed. Most of the increase in H3K27/18ac was in enhancers near TEAD transcription factors bound by Hippo signaling-regulated coactivators YAP and TAZ. E1A causes YAP/TAZ cytoplasmic sequestration. After eliminating E1A, YAP/TAZ were transported into nuclei, where they associated with poised enhancers with DNA-bound TEAD4 and H3K4me1. This activation of YAP/TAZ required RHO family GTPase signaling and caused histone acetylation by p300/CBP, chromatin remodeling, and cohesin loading to establish MSC-associated enhancers and then superenhancers. Consistent results were also observed in primary rat embryo kidney cells, human fibroblasts, and human respiratory tract epithelial cells. These results together with earlier studies suggest that YAP/TAZ function in a developmental checkpoint controlled by signaling from the actin cytoskeleton that prevents differ- entiation of a progenitor cell until it is in the correct cellular and tissue environment.

  • DNA Methylation Regulates Discrimination of Enhancers From
    Sharifi-Zarchi et al. BMC Genomics (2017) 18:964 DOI 10.1186/s12864-017-4353-7 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access DNA methylation regulates discrimination of enhancers from promoters through a H3K4me1-H3K4me3 seesaw mechanism Ali Sharifi-Zarchi1,2,3,4†, Daniela Gerovska5†, Kenjiro Adachi6, Mehdi Totonchi3, Hamid Pezeshk7,8, Ryan J. Taft9, Hans R. Schöler6,10, Hamidreza Chitsaz2, Mehdi Sadeghi8,11, Hossein Baharvand3,12* and Marcos J. Araúzo-Bravo5,13,14* Abstract Background: DNA methylation at promoters is largely correlated with inhibition of gene expression. However, the role of DNA methylation at enhancers is not fully understood, although a crosstalk with chromatin marks is expected. Actually, there exist contradictory reports about positive and negative correlations between DNA methylation and H3K4me1, a chromatin hallmark of enhancers. Results: We investigated the relationship between DNA methylation and active chromatin marks through genome- wide correlations, and found anti-correlation between H3K4me1 and H3K4me3 enrichment at low and intermediate DNA methylation loci. We hypothesized “seesaw” dynamics between H3K4me1 and H3K4me3 in the low and intermediate DNA methylation range, in which DNA methylation discriminates between enhancers and promoters, marked by H3K4me1 and H3K4me3, respectively. Low methylated regions are H3K4me3 enriched, while those with intermediate DNA methylation levels are progressively H3K4me1 enriched. Additionally, the enrichment of H3K27ac, distinguishing active from primed enhancers, follows a plateau in the lower range of the intermediate DNA methylation level, corresponding to active enhancers, and decreases linearly in the higher range of the intermediate DNA methylation. Thus, the decrease of the DNA methylation switches smoothly the state of the enhancers from a primed to an active state.

This is achieved by the recruitment of transcriptional co-factors. One of the consequences of co-factor recruitment is the control of specific properties of nucleosomes, the basic units of chromatin, and their protein components, the core histones. The main principles are to regulate the position and the characteristics of nucleosomes. The latter includes modulating the composition of core histones and their variants that are integrated into nucleosomes, and the post-translational modification of these histones referred to as histone marks. One of these marks is the methylation of lysine 4 of the core histone H3 (H3K4). While mono-methylation of H3K4 (H3K4me1) is located preferentially at active enhancers, tri-methylation (H3K4me3) is a mark found at open and potentially active promoters. Thus, H3K4 methylation is typically associated with gene transcription. The class 2 lysine methyltransferases (KMTs) are the main enzymes that methylate H3K4. KMT2 enzymes function in complexes that contain a necessary core complex composed of WDR5, RBBP5, ASH2L, and DPY30, the so-called WRAD complex.

While bivalent chromatin is known to link with many biological processes, the mechanisms responsible for its multiple functions remain unclear. Here, we develop a mathematical model that involves antagonistic histone modifications H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 to capture the key features of bivalent chromatin. Three necessary conditions for the emergence of bivalent chromatin are identified, including advantageous methylating activity over demethylating activity, frequent noise conversions of modifications, and sufficient nonlinearity. The first condition is further confirmed by analyzing the

In Received 30 May 2018 particular, methylation of lysine 36 in histone H3 (H3K36me) has been shown to mediate gene Revised 1 July 2018 transcription, DNA repair, cell cycle regulation, and pre-mRNA splicing. Notably, mutations at or Accepted 12 July 2018 near this residue have been causally linked to the development of several human cancers. These KEYWORDS observations have helped to illuminate the role of histones themselves in disease and to clarify Histone; H3K36M; cancer; the mechanisms by which they acquire oncogenic properties. This perspective focuses on recent PTM; methylation advances in discovery and characterization of histone H3 mutations that impact H3K36 methyla- tion. We also highlight findings that the common cancer-related substitution of H3K36 to methionine (H3K36M) disturbs functions of not only H3K36me-writing enzymes but also H3K36me-specific readers. The latter case suggests that the oncogenic effects could also be linked to the inability of readers to engage H3K36M.

It helps to open up the chromatin by neutralizing the positive charge of histone lysine residues and providing binding platforms for “reader” proteins. The bromodomain (BRD) has long been thought to be the sole protein module that recognizes acetylated histones. Re- cently, we identified the YEATS domain of AF9 (ALL1 fused gene from chromosome 9) as a novel acetyl-lysine- binding module and showed that the ENL (eleven-nineteen leukemia) YEATS domain is an essential acetyl-histone reader in acute myeloid leukemias.

This study was aimed to determine the impact of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) injection into the mouse embryos on H3K9me3 and H3K4me3 and cell lineage gene expressions in chimeric blastocysts. Materials and Methods: In our experiment, at the first step, incorporation of the GFP positive mESCs (GFP-mESCs) 129/Sv into the inner cell mass (ICM) of pre-compacted and compacted morula stage embryos was compared.
