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.

Project description:project abstract : H3K4 methylation is a well-conserved histone modification from yeast to human. Because H3K4 methylase Set1 and its complex, COMPASS (Complex of proteins associated with Set1), are conserved from yeast to humans, budding yeast has been studied as an acceptable model organism. Since COMPASS components affect Set1 protein stability and H3K4 methylation activity variously, it is important to study how Set1 is regulated by complex components. However, deletion mutant of Swd2 component of COMPASS is not viable, although overexpression of Sen1 fragment enables the construction of Swd2 deletion mutant. This study found that positioning epitope tag to the N-terminal of Swd2 did not decrease interaction between Swd2 and Set1, but reduced the stability of both proteins, Swd2 and Set1, and global H3K4 methylation. Also, we observed that overexpression of N-terminal tagged Swd2 caused increased Set1 protein level and bulk H3K4 methylation. Therefore, Set1 protein can maintain its protein level only when enough Swd2 exist to cover the protein amount of Set1. Also, by comparing RNA sequencing analysis of N-terminal tagged Swd2 and Swd2 deletion mutant with Sen1 fragment overexpression, we isolated genes regulated by Swd2. In conclusion, we suggest that the abundance of Swd2 is important to regulate the protein stability of Set1 and the regulation of gene expression.

Project description:The stimulation of trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) by H2B monoubiquitination (H2Bub) has been widely studied with multiple mechanisms proposed for this form of histone crosstalk. Cps35/Swd2 within COMPASS is considered to bridge these processes. However, a truncated form of Set1 (762-Set1) is reported to function in H3K4 trimethylation without interacting with Cps35/Swd2, and such crosstalk is attributed to the n-SET domain of Set1 and its interaction with the Cps40/Spp1 subunit of COMPASS. Here, we use biochemical, structural, in vivo, and ChIP-seq approaches to demonstrate that Cps40/Spp1 and the n-SET domain of Set1 are required for the stability of Set1 and not the crosstalk. Furthermore, the apparent wild-type levels of H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) in the 762-Set1 strain is due to rogue methylase activity of this mutant resulting in the mislocalization of H3K4me3 from the promoter-proximal regions to gene bodies and intergenic regions. We have also performed detailed screens and identified yeast strains lacking H2Bub, but containing intact H2Bub enzymes, that have normal levels of H3K4me3, suggesting that ubiquitination may not directly stimulate COMPASS, but rather works in a context of the PAF and Rad6/Bre1 complexes. Our study demonstrates that the ubiquitination machinery and Cps35/Swd2 function to focus COMPASS’ H3K4me3 activity at promoter-proximal regions in a context dependent manner.

Project description:Here, we showed that acute lost H3K4me3 induces rapid reduction in global transcription with progressively increase in magnitude over the time-course cooccurrence with lost all H3K4 methylations. To further determine the effects of COMPASS subunits degradation on H3K4 methylations occupancies genome-wide, we performed time-course spike-in chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq, also known as ChIP-Rx) analysis in both degron systems.

Project description:Histone H3K4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3) catalyzed by Set1/COMPASS, is a prominent epigenetic mark found in promoter-proximal regions of actively transcribed genes. H3K4me3 relies on prior monoubiquitination at the histone H2B (H2Bub) by Rad6 and Bre1. Swd2/Cps35, a Set1/COMPASS component, has been proposed as a key player in facilitating H2Bub-dependent H3K4me3. However, a more comprehensive investigation regarding the relationship among Rad6, Swd2 and Set1 is required to further understand the mechanisms and functions of the H3K4 methylation. We investigated the genome-wide occupancy patterns of Rad6, Swd2 and Set1 under various genetic conditions, aiming to clarify the roles of Set1 and Rad6 for occupancy of Swd2. Swd2 peaks appear on both 5’region and 3’region of genes, which are overlapped with its tightly bound two complexes, Set1 and CPF (Cleavage and Polyadenylation Factor), respectively. In the absence of Rad6/H2Bub, Set1 predominantly localized to the 5ʹ region of genes, while Swd2 lost all the chromatin binding. However, in the absence of Set1, Swd2 occupancy near the 5’region was impared and rather increased in the 3’ region. This study highlights that catalytic activity of Rad6 is essential for all the ways of Swd2’s binding to the transcribed genes and Set1 redistributes the Swd2 to 5’region for accomplishments of H3K4me3 in the genome-wide level.

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.

Project description:Methylation of histone H3 lysine 4 by the Set1 subunit of COMPASS correlates withactive transcription. Here we show that Set1 levels are regulated by protein degradation in response to multiple signals. Set1 levels are greatly reduced when COMPASS recruitment to genes, H3K4 methylation, or transcription is blocked. The degradation sequences map to N-terminal regions that overlap a previously identified auto-inhibitory domain, as well as the catalytic domain. Truncation mutants of Set1 that cause under- or over-expression produce abnormal H3K4 methylation patterns on transcribed genes. Surprisingly, SAGA-dependent genes are more strongly affected than TFIID-dependent genes, reflecting differences in their chromatin dynamics. We propose that careful tuning of Set1 levels by regulated degradation is critical for establishment and maintenance of proper H3K4 methylation patterns.

Project description:Changes in histone post-translational modifications are associated with aging through poorly defined mechanisms. Histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methylation at promoters is deposited by SET1 family methyltransferases acting within conserved multiprotein complexes known as COMPASS. Using co-immunopurification coupled to mass spectrometry-based proteomics, we characterized complex members and binding partners in various genetic contexts, using WDR-5 or CFP-1 proteins as baits.
