Kmt5a Controls Hepatic Metabolic Pathways by Facilitating RNA Pol II Release from Promoter-Proximal Regions


ABSTRACT: H4K20 monomethylation maintains genome integrity by regulating proper mitotic condensation, DNA damage response and replication licensing. Here we show that in non-dividing hepatic cells H4K20Me1 is specifically enriched in the gene bodies of active genes and dynamically regulated by the antagonistic action of PR-Set7 methylase and Phf8 demethylase. In liver-specific PR-Set7-deficient mice, reduced H4K20Me1 levels primarily affected RNAPII release from promoter-proximal regions. Glucose and fatty acid metabolic genes were highly sensitive to impaired RNAPII release. Downregulation of glycolytic genes resulted in an energy starvation condition partially compensated by AMPK activation and increased mitochondrial activity. This metabolic reprogramming generated a normoglycemic, but highly sensitized state, which upon different metabolic stress conditions, quickly aggravated into a senescent phenotype initiated by ROS overproduction and oxidative DNA damage. The results illustrate how defects in the general process of RNAPII transition into elongation phase can trigger specific metabolic changes, which lead to genome instability.
