Coordinated Histone Methylation Loss and MYC Activation Promote Translational Capacity Under Amino Acid Restriction

ABSTRACT: Epigenetic mechanisms underlying cellular adaptation to and recovery from nutrient deficiency are incompletely understood. Here, we report an adaptive epigenetic response to amino acid (AA) restriction that primes cells for rapid recovery. Depriving human cells of AAs led to selective loss of histone H4 lysine 20 monomethylation (H4K20me1) from gene bodies and increased MYC binding at promoters genome-wide, with strongest effects at ribosomal protein and translation initiation genes. Although AA restriction reduced overall protein synthesis, it was accompanied by increased translational capacity through upregulation of protein synthesis genes and accumulation of monomeric ribosomes. Combined SETD8, the H4K20 methyltransferase, depletion and MYC over-expression in nutrient-rich media was necessary and sufficient to recapitulate the transcriptional and functional effects of AA restriction. These findings suggest that cells respond to AA deprivation through coordinated chromatin and transcriptional changes that anticipate nutrient restoration and promote rapid recovery of protein synthesis when AAs are replenished.

Histone demethylation and c-MYC activation enhance translational capacity in response to amino acid restriction [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Nutrient limitation may elicit adaptive epigenetic changes but the nature and mechanisms of the cellular response to specific nutrient deficiencies are incompletely understood. We report that depriving human cells of amino acids (AAs) induces specific loss of H4K20me1 from gene bodies and elevated binding of c-MYC at promoters genome-wide. These effects are most pronounced at ribosomal protein and translation initiation genes, which are upregulated, leading to enhanced protein synthetic capacity. Combination of H4K20 methyltransferase depletion and c-MYC over-expression in rich media is required and sufficient to recapitulate the effects of AA restriction. Our data reveal an unexpected and epigenetically implemented increase in translational capacity when AAs are limiting, likely to safeguard the proteome by making effective use of limited resources.

tRNA regulation and amino acid usage bias reflect a coordinated metabolic adaptation in Plasmodium falciparum [RNA-Seq III]

Project description:An adaptive feature of malaria-causing parasites is the digestion of host hemoglobin (HB) to acquire amino acids (AAs). Here we describe a link between nutrient availability and translation dependent regulation of gene expression as an adaptive strategy. We show that tRNA expression in Plasmodium falciparum does not match the decoding need expected for optimal translation. A subset of tRNAs decoding AAs that are insufficiently provided by HB are lowly expressed, wherein the abundance of a protein-coding transcript is negatively correlated with the decoding requirement of these tRNAs. Proliferation-related genes have evolved a high requirement of these tRNAs, thereby proliferation can be modulated by repressing protein synthesis of these genes during nutrient stress. We conclude that the parasite modulates translation elongation by maintaining a discordant tRNA profile to exploit variations in AA-composition among genes as an adaptation strategy. This study exemplifies metabolic adaptation as an important driving force for protein evolution.

Measurement of free amino acid (AA) in response to MYC

Project description:The proposed study will provide us information how the different AAs are affected by MYC. MYC is known to cause increased levels of glutamin due to import and synthesis, but we hypothesize that the overall pool of free AA in the cells is reduced, especially when cells are starved.

Disrupting the Myc-Tfeb circuit confers vulnerabilities targeting amino acid homeostasis and provokes metabolic anergy

Project description:Metabolic reprogramming sustains cancer cell anabolism, and MYC oncoproteins control many aspects of this response. Normal cells adapt to nutrient-limiting conditions by activating autophagy, which is required for amino acid (AA) homeostasis. Surprisingly, here we report the autophagy-lysosomal pathway is suppressed by Myc in normal B cells, in premalignant and neoplastic B cells of Eµ-Myc transgenic mice, and in MYC-driven human Burkitt lymphoma. Myc suppresses autophagy by antagonizing expression and function of TFEB, a master regulator of autophagy/lysosome genes. Notably, compensatory mechanisms that sustain AA pools in MYC-expressing B cells include marked increases in AA transport and coordinate induction of the proteasome. Finally, reactivation of the autophagy-lysosomal pathway by constitutively active TFEB disables the malignant state, by perturbing mitochondrial functions and disrupting proteasome activity, amino acid transport, and disrupts amino acid and nucleotide metabolism, leading to growth arrest and apoptosis. This scenario provides therapeutic opportunities that disable MYC-driven tumorigenesis, including AA restriction and treatment with proteasome inhibitors.

Amino acids fuel FLS activation and arthritis by regulating chemokine expression and leukocyte migration

Project description:mTOR plays a significant role in synovial inflammation and suggests that dietary interventions and nutrient availability may influence arthritis severity and disease outcomes. In this study, we tested the effect of AA deprivation on the inflammatory activity of RA FLS and found that AAs specifically influence the expression of a gene set that regulates leukocyte chemotaxis. Using a murine model of inflammatory arthritis, we further demonstrate that low protein diet resulted in amelioration of objective measures of joint inflammation due to a reduced accumulation of inflammatory cells in their joints.

Single cell RNA sequencing of mouse embryonic fibroblasts in autophagy processes

Project description:Autophagy, a catabolic process to remove unnecessary or dysfunctional cells, is triggered by various signals including nutrient starvation. Depending on the type of the nutrient deficiency, diverse sensing mechanisms and pathways are used for autophagy, suggesting subsequent nutrient dependent transcriptional regulation. Still, however, our knowledge about nutrient specific transcriptional regulation during autophagy is limited. To understand nutrient type dependent transcriptional mechanisms during autophagy, we performed single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) for the mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) before and after applying glucose- (GS) as well as amino acid starvation (AAS). Trajectory analysis using scRNAseq identified sequential induction of potential transcriptional regulators for each deficiency condition. Gene regulatory rules inferred using TENET newly identified CCAAT/enhancer binding protein γ (C/EBPγ) regulates autophagy processes specifically to AAS condition. Strikingly, knockdown of C/EBPγ attenuated the autophagic process only in the AAS condition. Cell biological and biochemical studies validated that C/EBPγ plays a switching role for ATF4 to activate autophagy genes under AAS, but not under GS. Together, our data identified C/EBPγ as a previously unidentified key regulator under amino acid starvation-induced autophagy.

Effects of siRNA depletion on gene expression during C2C12 skeletal muscle differentiation initiation

Project description:In humans, skeletal muscles comprise nearly 40% of total body mass, which is maintained throughout adulthood by a balance of muscle protein synthesis and breakdown. Cellular amino acid (AA) levels are critical for these processes, and mammalian cells contain transporter proteins that import AAs to maintain homeostasis. Until recently, the control of transporter regulation has largely been studied at the transcriptional and post-translational levels; however, our recent work demonstrates that the RNA-binding protein YBX3 is critical to intracellular sustain AA in human cells. Here we report that YBX3 post-transcriptionally controls the levels of specific AA transporter messenger (m)RNAs in skeletal muscle cells, which impacts the intracellular levels transported by these proteins. Further, we find that reduction of YBX3 protein reduces proliferation during skeletal muscle differentiation, and that YBX3 expression increases substantially during skeletal muscle differentiation, which is independent to changes in itsmRNA levels. Taken together, our findings suggest that YBX3 regulates AA transport in skeletal muscle cells and that its expression is critical to maintain skeletal muscle cell proliferation during differentiation.
