Mitochondrial stress induces chromatin reorganization to promote longevity and UPRmt

ABSTRACT: Organisms respond to mitochondrial stress through the upregulation of an array of protective genes, often perpetuating an early response to metabolic dysfunction across a lifetime. We find that mitochondrial stress causes widespread changes in chromatin structure through histone H3K9 di-methylation marks traditionally associated with gene silencing. Mitochondrial stress response activation requires the di-methylation of histone H3K9 through the activity of the histone methyltransferase met-2 and the nuclear co-factor lin-65. While globally the chromatin becomes silenced by these marks, remaining portions of the chromatin open up, at which point the binding of canonical stress responsive factors such as DVE-1 occurs. Thus, a metabolic stress response is established and propagated into adulthood of animals through specific epigenetic modifications that allow for selective gene expression and lifespan extension.

The nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) complex mediates the mitochondrial unfolded protein response and longevity in C. elegans

Project description:Mitochondrial stress during development causes widespread changes in chromatin structure to promote mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt), perpetuating an early response across a lifetime results in lifespan extension. We found that the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) complex interact with the transcription factor DVE-1 to initiate the global chromatin condensation and induce the UPRmt in animals experienced with mild mitochondrial dysfunction. The condensed chromatin structure can be well maintained into later life that is beneficial for lifespan extension. Moreover, overexpression of the core component of the NuRD complex is sufficient to induce the UPRmt response and longevity in C. elegans. Thus, a transient mitochondrial stress response during early development is established and propagated into later life through the NuRD-dependent chromatin remodeling pathway to extend lifespan.

Two distinct modes for propagation of histone PTMs across the cell cycle

Project description:Epigenetic states defined by chromatin can be maintained through mitotic cell division. However, it remains unknown how histone-based information is transmitted. Here we combine nascent chromatin capture (NCC) and triple-SILAC labelling to track histone modifications and histone variants during DNA replication and across the cell cycle. We show that post-translational modifications (PTMs) are transmitted with parental histones to newly replicated DNA. Di- and tri-methylation marks are diluted two-fold upon DNA replication, as a consequence of new histone deposition. Importantly, within one cell cycle all PTMs are restored. In general, new histones are modified to mirror the parental histones. However, H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 are propagated by continuous modification of parental and new histones, because the establishment of these marks extends over several cell generations. Together, our results reveal how histone marks propagate and demonstrate that chromatin states oscillate within the cell cycle.

mRNA-seq of worms and the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt)

Project description:To cope with a challenging and unpredictable environment, living systems have evolved several organelle-specific stress responses, e.g. the cytosolic heat shock response (HSR), the endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response (UPRER) and the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt). UPRmt monitors mitochondrial function and homeostasis in general. However, the mechanism of UPRmt remains largely unexplored. Here we identified that histone deacetylase HDA-1 is associated with homeobox domain-containing protein DVE-1 in UPRmt activation in Caenorhabditis elegans. Knocking down ATP synthase subunit atp-2 generates mitochondrial stress and induces UPRmt. After analyzing the mRNA profiles of worms on L4440 RNAi, hda-1 RNAi or dve-1 RNAi and untreated or treated with atp-2 RNAi, we found that 283 hda-1_dependent genes and 218 dve-1_dependent genes were upregulated in response to atp-2 RNAi.

Identification of ubiquitination sites of purified histone H3

Project description:Histones modulate gene expression by chromatin compaction, regulating numerous processes such as differentiation. However, the mechanisms underlying histone degradation remain elusive. When compared with their differentiated counterparts, immortal human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have a unique chromatin architecture and low levels of trimethylated histone H3 at lysine 9 (H3K9me3), a heterochromatin-associated modification. Here we assess a link between the intrinsic epigenetic landscape and ubiquitin-proteasome system of hESCs. We find that hESCs exhibit high expression of UBE2K, a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. Loss of UBE2K increases the levels of H3K9 trimethyltransferase SETDB1, resulting in H3K9 trimethylation and repression of neurogenic genes during differentiation. Concomitantly, loss of UBE2K impairs the ability of hESCs to differentiate into neural progenitors with neurogenic properties. Besides H3K9 trimethylation, we find that UBE2K binds histone H3 to induce its polyubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome. Notably, ubc-20, the worm orthologue of UBE2K, also regulates both histone H3 levels and H3K9 trimethylation in C. elegans germline. Thus, our results indicate that UBE2K crosses evolutionary boundaries to promote histone H3 degradation and reduce H3K9me3 repressive marks in immortal cells.

Lipid biosynthesis coordinates a Mitochondrial to Cytosolic Stress Response

Project description:Defects in mitochondrial metabolism have been increasingly linked with age-onset protein misfolding diseases such as Alzheimerâs, Parkinsonâs, and Huntingtonâs. In response to protein folding stress, compartment-specific unfolded protein responses (UPRs) within the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and cytosol work in parallel to ensure cellular protein homeostasis. While perturbation of individual compartments can make other compartments more susceptible to protein stress, the cellular conditions that trigger cross-communication between the individual UPRs remain poorly understood. We have uncovered a conserved, robust mechanism linking mitochondrial protein homeostasis and the cytosolic folding environment through changes in lipid homeostasis. Metabolic restructuring caused by mitochondrial stress or small molecule activators trigger changes in gene expression coordinated uniquely by both the mitochondrial and cytosolic UPRs, protecting the cell from disease-associated proteins. Our data suggest an intricate and unique system of communication between UPRs in response to metabolic changes that could unveil new targets for diseases of protein misfolding. Because the induction of the MCSR due to hsp-6 RNAi required both hsf-1 and dve-1, key transcription factors required for the HSR and UPRmt, respectively, we asked which gene sets are coordinately regulated by both factors. We performed microarray analyses to determine which genes have their expression altered by hsp-6 RNAi and whether these genes are regulated either by hsf-1, dve-1 or both

Expression data from mouse liver

Project description:Assisted reproductive technologies, including in vitro fertilization (IVF), are now frequently used, and increasing evidence indicates that IVF causes gene expression changes in children and adolescents that increase the risk of metabolic diseases. Although such gene expression changes are thought to be due to IVF-induced epigenetic changes, the mechanism remains elusive. We tested whether the transcription factor ATF7, which mediates stress-induced changes in histone H3K9 tri- and di-methylation, the typical epigenetic silencing marks, is involved in the IVF-induced gene expression changes. We investigated the liver transcriptome in 3-week-old mice generated by IVF and normal mating.

JASPer controls interphase histone H3S10 phosphorylation by chromosomal kinase JIL-1 in Drosophila

Project description:In Drosophila the chromosomal kinase JIL-1 is responsible for most interphase histone H3S10 phosphorylation and has been proposed to protect active chromatin from acquiring heterochromatic marks, like dimethylated histone H3K9 (H3K9me2) and HP1. Here, we show that JIL-1’s targeting to chromatin depends on a PWWP domain-containing protein JASPer (JIL-1 Anchoring and Stabilizing Protein). The JASPer-JIL-1 (JJ)-complex is the major form of the kinase in vivo and is targeted to active genes and telomeric transposons via binding of the PWWP domain of JASPer to H3K36me3 nucleosomes, where the complex modulates the transcriptional output. JIL-1 and JJ-complex depletion in cycling cells lead to small changes in H3K9me2 distribution at active genes and telomeric transposons. Finally, we identify several interactors of the endogenous JJ-complex and propose that JIL-1 not only prevents heterochromatin formation but also coordinates chromatin-based regulation in the transcribed part of the genome.

Histone modifications in the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

Project description:Genome wide mapping of five histone marks (H3K4me2, H3K9me2, H3K9me3, H3K27me3 and H3AcK9/14) as well as nucleosome occupancy was generated by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by deep sequencing. To gain insights into the dynamic nature of the P. tricornutum epigenome in response to an environmental cue, we analyzed the impact of nitrate depletion. We specifically examined three histone modifications (H3K4me2, H3K9/14Ac and H3K9me3) using Chip-seq. Examination of 5 different histone modifications.

DVE-1_ChIP-seq and HDA-1_ChIP-seq of worms

Project description:Mitochondria are important organelles, but their function is often challenged by toxic products of metabolism as well as by pathogen attack. The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) monitors mitochondrial function in general: it is responsible for buffering the mitochondrial protein folding environment, and controlling mitochondria-nuclear balance of the electron transport chain (ETC) components. Besides, UPRmt plays essential roles in aging and lifespan. Here we found that knocking down histone deacetylase hda-1 robustly attenuated UPRmt and lifespan extension. We identified HDA-1 as a required factor for UPRmt activation and HDA-1 is associated with the homeobox domain-containing protein DVE-1.So, we performed ChIP-seq of worms to find DNA regions on which HDA-1 and DVE-1 bound, and if their binding depend on each other.
