ACTB methylation regulates SMARCA4 genomic occupancy to promote translation and reduce adhesion in colorectal cancer cells


ABSTRACT: ACTB is a cytoskeletal protein involved in intracellular trafficking. In recent years, it has become evident that, in addition to its established roles in these compartments, ACTB also participates in the regulation of transcription. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this function remain poorly understood. The methyltransferase SETD3 has previously been shown to methylate ACTB at H73, thereby regulating ACTB polymerization and smooth muscle contraction. Here, we show that the genomic distribution of ACTB is SETD3-dependent and that this regulation modulates the transcription of genes involved in cell adhesion and mRNA translation in colorectal cancer cells. Proteomic analyses reveal that ACTB and SETD3 interact with multiple large protein complexes, including complexes associated with transcriptional regulation. Specifically, we demonstrate that SETD3-mediated ACTB methylation is required for the co-localization of SMARCA4, a subunit of the SWI/SNF BAF complex, at specific genomic loci. Genomic analyses further show that this co-localization enables the coordinated occupancy of SMARCA4 and H73-methylated ACTB at genes involved in cell adhesion and mRNA translation. Finally, phenotypic assays confirm these regulatory effects. Together, these findings uncover a new mechanistic layer of selective transcriptional regulation mediated by an ACTB–SETD3–SMARCA4 axis in colorectal cancer cells.
