The Role of Histone H3 Leucine 126 as the Axial Copper Ligand

ABSTRACT: The copper reductase activity of histone H3 suggests the presence of yet-to-be-discovered characteristics within the protein. Here, we investigated the function of leucine 126 (H3L126), which serves as the axial ligand for copper binding. Typically found as a methionine or leucine in copper binding proteins, the axial ligand influences the reduction potential of the bound ion, thereby modulating the capability of a protein to conduct electrons. Mutation of H3L126 to methionine (H3L126M) increased the enzymatic activity of yeast nucleosomes and intracellular Cu1+ levels, leading to improved copper-dependent activities including mitochondrial respiration and growth in oxidative media with low copper. H3L126 to histidine (H3L126H) mutation decreased nucleosome’s enzymatic activity and resulted in opposite phenotypes in vivo. Our findings demonstrate the role of H3L126 in fine-tuning the copper reductase activity of nucleosomes and underscore the utility of nucleosome enzymatic activity as a novel paradigm to uncover previously unnoticed features of histones.

Mitochondrial COA7 is a heme-binding protein with disulfide reductase activity, which is involved in the early stages of complex IV assembly

Project description:Cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor 7 (COA7) is a metazoan-specific assembly factor, critical for the biogenesis of mitochondrial complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase). Although mutations in COA7 have been linked to complex IV assembly defects and neurological conditions such as peripheral neuropathy, ataxia and leukoencephalopathy, the precise role COA7 plays in the biogenesis of complex IV is not known. Here we show that the absence of COA7 leads to arrest of the complex IV assembly pathway after the initial step where the COX1 module is built, progression from which requires the incorporation of copper, through the biogenesis of the CuA site. The crystal structure of COA7, determined to 2.4 Å resolution, reveals a ‘banana-shaped’ molecule composed of five helix-turn-helix repeats, tethered by disulfide bonds. We find that in solution, purified COA7 binds heme with micromolar affinity, through axial ligation to the central iron atom by histidine and methionine residues. COA7 interacts transiently with the copper metallochaperones SCO1 and SCO2 that function in copper delivery to COX2 and catalyzes the reduction of disulfide bonds within these proteins, which constitute the protein copper binding sites. We therefore propose that COA7 is a heme-binding disulfide reductase that acts in the biogenesis of the CuA site, that underpins complex IV assembly.

Characterization of the proteome of human cytochrome c oxidase assembly factors - Experiment D

Project description:Mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) or respiratory chain complex IV is a heme aa3-copper oxygen reductase containing metal centers essential for holo-complex biogenesis and enzymatic function that are assembled by subunit-specific metallochaperones. The enzyme has two copper sites located in the catalytic core subunits. The COX1 subunit harbors the CuB site that tightly associates with heme a3 while the COX2 subunit contains the binuclear CuA site. Here, we report that in human cells the CcO copper chaperones form macromolecular assemblies and cooperate with several twin CX9C proteins to control heme a biosynthesis and coordinate copper transfer sequentially to the CuA and CuB sites. These data on CcO illustrate a mechanism that regulates the biogenesis of macromolecular enzymatic assemblies with several catalytic metal redox centers and prevents the accumulation of cytotoxic reactive assembly intermediates We characterized the proteome of COX11, COX19 and PET191 by AP + LC-MS-MS

The histone H3-H4 tetramer is a copper reductase enzyme

Project description:We sought to examine whether nucleosomes participate in cellular copper homeostasis by directly catalyzing the reduction of copper, thereby producing the biousable cuprous ion. To test this hypothesis, we disrupted a potential copper coordination site of the nucleosome by mutating the histone H3 His113 residue to an asparagine (H113N) in the budding yeast. We observed that copper homeostasis was indeed perturbed in the H113N mutant. However, given the known roles of nucleosomes in regulating gene expression, it was reasonable to expect that the perturbation of copper homeostasis was due simply to a conincidental disrutpion of the tanscriptional regulation of genes important for copper metabolism. We performed polyA+ RNA sequencing of WT and H3H113N yeast strains in various conditions to assess whether gene expression alterations could account for the copper-related phenotypes.

Effects of single amino acid deficiency on mRNA translation are markedly different for methionine versus leucine

Project description:Amino acid availability regulates translation through the action of the GCN2 and mTORC1 pathways. Low amino acids activate the eIF2α kinase GCN2 through binding of uncharged tRNAs to a histidyl-tRNA synthetase−related regulatory domain. Once activated GCN2 phosphorylates eIF2α, inhibiting ternary complex formation and translation initiation. Recent studies show that mTORC1 is particularly sensitive to arginine and leucine status, with a deprivation of these amino acids leading to a strong inhibition of mTORC1 that prevents the phosphorylation and inactivation of the translational repressor 4EBP1. Though amino acids are known regulators of translation, the effects that deficiencies of specific amino acids have on translation have yet to be determined. We demonstrate that deprivation of leucine or methionine results in large inhibitory effects on translation initiation and on polysome formation that are not replicated by overexpressing non-phosphorylatable 4EBP1 or a phosphomimetic eIF2α. Our results demonstrate that a lack of either leucine or methionine has a major impact on mRNA translation, though they act by quite different mechanisms. Leucine deprivation appears to primarily inhibit ribosome loading, whereas methionine deprivation appears to primarily impair start site recognition. These data point to a unique regulatory effect that methionine status has on translation initiation.

Resolving oxidative damage to methionine by an unexpected membrane-associated stereoselective reductase discovered using chiral fluorescent probes

Project description:Non-enzymatic oxidative processes in living organisms are one of the inevitable consequences of respiration and environmental conditions. They can lead to the formation of two stereoisomers (R and S) of methionine sulfoxide, and the redox balance between methionine and methionine sulfoxide in proteins has profound functional consequences. Methionine oxidation can be reverted enzymatically by methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msrs). The two enzyme classes known to fulfil this role are MsrA (reducing (S)-sulfoxides), and MsrB (reducing (R)-sulfoxides). They are strictly stereoselective and conserved throughout the tree of life. Under stress conditions such as stationary phase and nutrient starvation, E.coli upregulates expression of MsrA but similar effect has not been described for MsrB, raising a conundrum of the pathway enabling reduction of the (R)-isomer of methionine sulfoxide in these conditions. Using the recently developed chiral fluorescent probes Sulfox-1 we show that in stationary phase stressed E. coli, MsrA does have a stereocomplementary, (R)-sulfoxide-reducing counterpart. However, this activity is not provided by MsrB as expected, but instead by the DMSO reductase complex DmsABC, widely conserved in bacteria. This finding reveals an unexpected diversity in the metabolic enzymes of redox regulation concerning methionine, which should be taken into account in any antibacterial strategies exploiting oxidative stress.

Project description:Setd2 methylate the nucleosome to form H3K36me3. Here we utilized the Cryo-EM to elucidate the structure of SETD2/Set2 bound with nucleosomes. Through this structure analysis, we found that histone H1 may interfere the enzymatic activity of SETD2/Set2 by inhibiting their binding affinity.

Mechanism for the selective sequestration of a histone H3K9 methyltransferase at heterochromatin by the H3K9M mutation

Project description:Oncogenic histone lysine-to-methionine mutations block the methylation of their corresponding lysine residues on wild type histones, but the mechanisms by which these mutations function are highly controversial. We have previously shown that in fission yeast, H3K9M containing nucleosomes sequesters the H3K9 methyltransferase Clr4 to block H3K9 methylation{Shan, 2016 #119}. Using ChIP-sequencing, here we show that even though H3K9M containing nucleosomes are broadly distributed across the genome, Clr4 is mainly sequestered at pericentric repeats. The selective sequestration of Clr4 depends not only on H3K9M, but also on H3K14 ubiquitylation (H3K14ub), a modification deposited by a Clr4 associated E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. In vitro, H3K14ub enhances the interaction between H3K9M and Clr4 and potentiates the inhibitory effects of H3K9M on Clr4 enzymatic activity. Using bio-layer interferometry, we show that the H3K9M mutation reduced association rates (kon) of Clr4 with histone tails, suggesting that Clr4 intrinsically disfavors H3K9M. More importantly, H3K9M reduced the dissociation rate (koff) of Clr4 with histone tails, demonstrating that H3K9M slows down the turnover of Clr4 once it is bound. Finally, we generated mutations on Clr4 that specifically disrupt its interaction with H3K14ub and show that they reduce the inhibitory effects of H3K9MK14ub on Clr4 enzymatic activity in vitro and relieve the sequestration of Clr4 at pericentric repeats in vivo. Therefore, the selective sequestration of Clr4 at pericentric repeats by H3K9M is due to the presence of H3K14ub at these regions, which overcomes Clr4’s aversion of H3K9M and reduces the dissociation of Clr4.
