RNA fine-tunes KAT5 activity to shape chromatin acetylation during active transcription [ChIP-Seq]

ABSTRACT: KAT5 is a prominent histone acetyltransferase that deposits acetylation on histone H4 to regulate transcription, genome stability, and cell fate decisions. Although the chromatin recruitment of KAT5 and its associated NuA4/TIP60 complex is well characterized, the molecular mechanisms that regulate its catalytic activity are still largely unknown. Here, we identify RNA as a direct and reversible modulator of KAT5 activity. Using single-end enhanced crosslinking and immunoprecipitation sequencing (seCLIP-seq), we find that KAT5 binds RNA in cells with a strong preference for GC-rich mRNA sequences enriched near transcription start sites. Unexpectedly, loss of KAT5–RNA interactions during acute transcriptional inhibition triggers rapid and pronounced promoter hyperacetylation in a KAT5-dependent manner. Biochemical and structural analyses reveal that RNA engages a regulatory RNA-binding region within the HAT domain, sterically blocking substrate access to the catalytic pocket and thereby suppressing KAT5 acetyltransferase activity. Our findings uncover nascent RNA as a reversible allosteric inhibitor of KAT5, revealing an RNA-directed feedback mechanism that modulates promoter acetylation and transcriptional output.

RNA sequencing of fibroblasts from patients with pathogenic KAT5 variants

Project description:KAT5 encodes an essential lysine acetyltransferase previously called TIP60 involved in gene expression, DNA repair, chromatin remodeling, apoptosis and cell proliferation; but it remains unclear whether variants in this gene causes a genetic disease. Here, we study three individuals with heterozygous de novo missense variants in KAT5 that affect normally invariant residues, with one at the chromodomain (p.Arg53His) and two at or near the acetyl-CoA binding site (p.Cys369Ser and p.Ser413Ala). All three individuals have cerebral malformations, seizures, global developmental delay or intellectual disability, and severe sleep disturbance. Progressive cerebellar atrophy was also noted. Histone acetylation assays with purified mutant KAT5 demonstrated that the variants decrease or abolish the ability of the resulting NuA4/TIP60 multi-subunit complexes to acetylate the histone H4 tail in chromatin. Transcriptomic analysis in patient-derived fibroblasts showed deregulation of multiple genes controlling development. Moreover, there was also upregulated expression of PER1 (a key gene involved in circadian control), in agreement with sleep anomalies in all the patients. In conclusion, dominant missense KAT5 variants cause histone acetylation deficiency with transcriptional dysregulation of multiples genes, thereby leading to a neurodevelopmental syndrome with sleep disturbance, cerebellar atrophy and facial dysmorphisms suggesting a recognizable syndrome.

KAT5 activity regulates quiescent-like states in human gliomas.

Project description:Quiescence cancer stem-like cells may play key roles in promoting tumor cell heterogeneity and recurrence for many tumors, including glioblastoma (GBM). Here we show that the protein acetyltransferase KAT5 is a key regulator of transcriptional, epigenetic, and proliferative heterogeneity impacting transitions into G0-like states in GBM. KAT5 activity suppresses the emergence of quiescent subpopulations with neurodevelopmental progenitor characteristics, while promoting GBM stem-like cell (GSC) self-renewal through coordinately regulating E2F- and MYC- transcriptional networks with protein translation. KAT5 inactivation significantly decreases tumor progression and invasive behavior while increasing survival after standard of care. Further, increasing MYC expression in human neural stem cells stimulates KAT5 activity and protein translation, as well as confers sensitivity to homoharringtonine, to similar levels to those found in GSCs and high-grade gliomas. These results suggest that the dynamic behavior of KAT5 plays key roles in G0 ingress/egress, adoption of quasi-neurodevelopmental states, and aggressive tumor growth in gliomas.

KAT5 activity regulates quiescent-like states in human gliomas [crispr screen]

Project description:In solid tumors, quiescent/G0 cell populations likely play important roles in maintaining cellular heterogeneity and promoting recurrence after stand of care. However, little is known about the mechanisms of tumor cell G0 ingress and egress. To discover regulators of G0-like states for glioblastoma (GBM), we performed a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screen in patient-derived GBM stem-like cells (GSCs) for genes that when inhibited trap cells in G0-like states. We identify the protein acetyltransferase KAT5 as a key regulator of G0 and cell cycle dynamics in GSCs and GSC-derived tumors. In primary gliomas, KAT5low cells display quiescent properties, while overall KAT5 activity increases as tumors become more aggressive. Further, we find that KAT5 activity suppresses the emergence of non-dividing subpopulations with oligodendrocyte progenitor and radial glial cell characteristics both in vitro and in a GSC tumor model. These results reveal that KAT5 activity regulates transitions between non-dividing, neurodevelopmental, and proliferative states in GBM tumors.

KAT5-mediated acetylation of PC4 facilitates DNA repair by promoting chromatin reorganization

Project description:Human positive coactivator 4 (PC4), is a highly abundant non-histone chromatin protein involved in diverse cellular processes, including transcription regulation, genome organization, autophagy, B-cell differentiation, neurogenesis, DNA repair, etc. Most PC4 is phosphorylated in cells, which interacts with core histones and the linker histone H1 to confer the compact heterochromatin state of the genome. Knocking down of PC4 at both cellular and organismal levels leads to significant chromatin decondensation, altered epigenetic landscape, enhanced autophagy, and increased DNA damage susceptibility. Here, we report that besides p300, PC4 also gets acetylated by DNA repair, facilitating lysine acetyltransferase KAT5 (Tip60) at a specific lysine residue (PC4K80) when the cells are subjected to DNA damage. The vulnerability of DNA in PC4 devoid cells was substantially reduced by reintroducing wild-type PC4 to the cells but not the mutant PC4 (PC4K80R), defective in KAT5-mediated acetylation. High-resolution microscopy techniques, including transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), are employed to visualize chromatin structural changes in response to DNA damage and repair in a Tip60- mediated PC4 acetylation-dependent manner. Presumably, KAT5-mediated acetylation of PC4 at K80 residue facilitates access to the damaged DNA by altering chromatin structures at damage sites, thus promoting DNA repair. This process could be highly significant both in cancer and in aging
