Project description:The lysine demethylase 3A (KDM3A, JMJD1A or JHDM2A) controls transcriptional networks in a variety of biological processes such as spermatogenesis, metabolism, stem cell activity and tumor progression. We matched transcriptomic and ChIP-Seq profiles to decipher a genome-wide regulatory network of epigenetic control by KDM3A in prostate cancer cells. ChIP-Seq experiments monitoring histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9) methylation marks show global histone demethylation effects of KDM3A. Combined assessment of histone demethylation events and gene expression changes presented major transcriptional activation suggesting that distinct oncogenic regulators may synergize with the epigenetic patterns by KDM3A. Pathway enrichment analysis of cells with KDM3A knockdown prioritized androgen signaling indicating that KDM3A plays a key role in regulating androgen receptor activity. Matched ChIP-Seq and knockdown experiments of KDM3A in combination with ChIP-Seq of the androgen receptor resulted in a gain of H3K9 methylation marks around androgen receptor binding sites of selected transcriptional targets in androgen signaling including positive regulation of KRT19, NKX3-1, KLK3, NDRG1, MAF, CREB3L4, MYC, INPP4B, PTK2B, MAPK1, MAP2K1, IGF1, E2F1, HSP90AA1, HIF1A, and ACSL3. The cancer systems biology analysis of KDM3A-dependent genes identifies an epigenetic and transcriptional network in androgen response, hypoxia, glycolysis, and lipid metabolism. Genome-wide ChIP-Seq data highlights specific gene targets and the ability of KDM3A to control oncogenic pathways in prostate cancer cells.

Project description:The epigenetic modifier lysine-specific histone demethylase 3a (kdm3a) is specific for demethylation of mono- and di-methylated 9th lysine of histone H3 (H3K9me1/2) and belongs to the Jumonji domain-containing group of demethylases. Kdm3a is known to play significant roles during various biological and pathophysiological processes such as spermatogenesis and metabolism, determination of sex, androgen receptor-mediated transcription, and embryonic carcinoma cell differentiation. In the current study, we evaluated the physiological functions of kdm3a during Xenopus laevis embryogenesis. Spatiotemporal expression pattern indicated maternal nature of kdm3a, exhibiting its expression from early embryonic stages until tadpole stage, however considerable high level of expression were observed during the neurula stage of Xenopus development. Depleting kdm3a using kdm3a antisense morpholino oligonucleotides induced anomalies, such as head deformities and small-sized eyes. Our whole-mount in situ hybridization results demonstrated that kdm3a knockdown is associated with defects in neural crest formation and migration. Further, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction revealed abnormal expression of neural markers in kdm3a morphants. RNA sequencing of kdm3a morphants indicated that kdm3a is implicated in mesoderm formation, cell adhesion, and metabolic processes of embryonic development. In conclusion, we suggest that kdm3a is critical for neural development during Xenopus embryogenesis and can be targeted for treatment of developmental disorders. The further detailed investigation is required to understand the molecular mechanism involved in neural development regulation by kdm3a.

Project description:Androgen receptor (AR) is reactivated in castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) through mechanisms including marked increases in AR gene expression. We identify an enhancer in the AR second intron contributing to increased AR expression at low androgen levels in CRPC. Moreover, at increased androgen levels the AR binds this site and represses AR gene expression through recruitment of lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) and H3K4me1,2 demethylation. AR similarly represses expression of multiple genes mediating androgen synthesis, DNA synthesis and proliferation, while stimulating genes mediating lipid and protein biosynthesis. Androgen levels in CRPC appear adequate to stimulate AR activity on enhancer elements, but not on suppressor elements, resulting in increased expression of AR and AR repressed genes that contribute to cellular proliferation. Custom Agilent 44K whole human genome expression oligonucleotide microarrays were used to profile pre-castrated androgen dependent, 4d-post-castrated, and relapsed castration resistant VCaP xenograft tumors in 3 mice. Total RNA was isolated and amplified prior to hybridization against a common reference pool of prostate tumor cell lines.

Project description:Histone demethylation has important roles in regulating gene expression and forms part of the epigenetic memory system that regulates cell fate and identity, by still poorly understood mechanisms. Here we examined the role played by the histone demethylase Kdm3a, which demethylates lysine 9 of histone H3, during cellular differentiation. Using F9 mouse embryonal carcinoma cells as a model for progression through terminal differentiation, we showed that Kdm3a is essential to differentiation into parietal endoderm-like (PE) cells. On gene expression microarrays, we found several genes whose expression is upregulated by Kdm3a during endoderm differentiation, including the three developmental master players Dab2, Pdlim4, and FoxQ1. The role of Kdm3a as a transcriptional activator of these genes was correlated with its effect by demethylating dimethyl-lysine 9 of histone H3 (H3K9me2) at their promoters. We further demonstrated that Dab2 depletion, like Kdm3a depletion, prevents F9 cells from fully differentiating into PE cells. Nevertheless, the only overexpression of Dab2 in Kdm3a-depleted cells is not sufficient to completely restore the PE differentiation in Kdm3a-knockdown cells. Overall, our findings reveal that Kdm3a is crucial for progression through terminal differentiation, likely by regulating the expression of a set of master players in endoderm differentiation. The emergence of Kdm3a as a key modulator of cell fate decision strengthens the notion that histone demethylases are at the nexus of cell differentiation and development.

Project description:Autophagy phenomenon is an essential mechanism to regulate cell homeostasis and is activated by various stresses such as nutrient starvation. It is well known that when autophagy is activated and how important components in the cytoplasm cause a series of reactions, but the regulatory mechanism of transcription in the nucleus is poorly known. Here, we identify that histone demethylase KDM3A plays a crucial role in the transcription of autophagy and lysosomal genes. Notably, KDM3A is increased in transcriptional levels in both glucose and amino acid starvation. Especially, transcriptional increase of histone demethylase in response to glucose starvation is dependent on AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Furthermore, genome-wide analysis reveals that KDM3A acts as a co-activator in the expression of autophagy and lysosomal genes. Our finding of histone demethylase signaling cascade in nucleus, modulating histone demethylation signature is one of the predominant epigenetic event in autophagy activation, thereby providing the functional and mechanistic link between epigenetic control and transcriptional regulation of autophagy upon nutrient starvation.

Project description:Histone lysine (K) residues, which are modified by methyl- and acetyl-transferases, diversely regulate RNA synthesis. Unlike the ubiquitously activating effect of histone K acetylation, the effects of histone K methylation vary with the number of methyl groups added and with the position of these groups in the histone tails. Histone K demethylases (KDMs) counteract the activity of methyl-transferases and remove methyl group(s) from specific K residues in histones.KDM3A (also known as JHDM2A or JMJD1A) is an H3K9me2/1 demethylase. KDM3Aperforms diverse functions via the regulation of its associated genes, which are involved in spermatogenesis, metabolism, and cell differentiation. However, the mechanism by which the activity of KDM3A is regulated is largely unknown. First, we demonstrated that mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinase 1 (MSK1) specifically phosphorylates KDM3A at Ser264 (pKDM3A), which is enriched in the regulatory regions of gene loci in the human genome under heat shock conditions. p-KDM3A directly interacts with and is recruited by the transcription factor Stat1 to activate KDM3A target genes. The demethylation of H3K9me2 at the Stat1 binding site specifically depends on the co-expression of p-KDM3A under heat shock conditions. In contrast to heat shock treatment, IFN-M-NM-3 treatment does not phosphorylate KDM3A via MSK1, thereby abrogating its downstream effects. To our knowledge, this is the first evidence that a KDM can be modified via phosphorylation to determine its specific binding to target genes in response to cellular stress. 3 ChIP samples and two input as controls

Project description:Cilia are dynamic antennae that sense the extracellular environment adjusting their length to maintain homeostasis. Mutant mouse models for the lysine demethylase KDM3A (JMJD1A, JMHD2A) share phenotypic features with human ciliopathies, including obesity and metabolic syndrome. Here we show that cilia of Kdm3a mutants are unstable with dysregulated length ranges accumulating intraflagellar transport proteins (IFTs) at the ciliary tip. RNA sequencing and mass-spectrometry identified actin cytoskeleton as the most miss-regulated feature during the ciliary cycle of KDM3A null cells and revealed that IFT81 contains Nε-methylated lysines in vivo to which recombinant KDM3A binds without subsequent demethylation. Mutations in these IFT81 methyl-lysine residues however stabilize KDM3A null cilia and potentiate ciliogenesis surpassing wild type cells; a synergism phenocopied by wild type cultures through the simultaneous destabilization of the actin cytoskeleton when over-expressing IFT81 lysine-mutants. Our work reveals that ciliogenesis requires the coordinated release of cytoskeletal constrains and the presence of intraflagellar transport proteins which KDM3A integrates aided by post-translationally modifiable lysine residues in IFT81.
