Project description:The glycolytic enzyme, pyruvate kinase Pyk1 maintains telomere heterochromatin by phosphorylating histone H3T11 (H3pT11), which promotes SIR (silent information regulator) complex binding at telomeres and prevents autophagy-mediated Sir2 degradation. However, the exact action mechanism of H3pT11 is poorly understood. Here, we identify Dot1-catalyzed H3K79 tri-methylation (H3K79me3) as the downstream effector of H3pT11 and uncover how this histone crosstalk regulates autophagy and telomere silencing. Mechanistically, Pyk1-catalyzed H3pT11 directly reduces the binding of Dot1 to chromatin and inhibits Dot1-catalyzed H3K79me3, which leads to transcriptional repression of autophagy genes and reduced autophagy. Despite the antagonism between H3pT11 and H3K79me3, they synergically promote the binding of SIR complex at telomeres to maintain telomere silencing. Furthermore, we identify Reb1 as a telomere-associated factor that recruits Pyk1-containing SESAME (Serine-responsive SAM-containing Metabolic Enzyme) complex to telomere regions to phosphorylate H3T11 and prevent the invasion of H3K79me3 from euchromatin into heterochromatin to maintain telomere silencing. Together, these results uncover a novel histone crosstalk and provide insights into dynamic regulation of silent heterochromatin and autophagy in response to cell metabolism.

Despite the antagonism between H3pT11 and H3K79me3, they work together to promote the binding of SIR complex at telomeres to maintain telomere silencing. Furthermore, we identify Reb1 as a telomere-associated factor that recruits Pyk1-containing SESAME (Serine-responsive SAM36 taining Metabolic Enzyme) complex to telomere regions to phosphorylate H3T11 and prevent the invasion of H3K79me3 from euchromatin into heterochromatin to maintain telomere silencing.

Project description:Telomeres are organized into a heterochromatin structure and maintenance of silent heterochromatin is required for chromosome stability. How telomere heterochromatin is dynamically regulated in response to stimuli remains unknown. Pyruvate kinase Pyk1 forms a complex, named SESAME (Serine-responsive SAM-containing Metabolic Enzyme complex) to regulate gene expression by phosphorylating histone H3T11 (H3pT11). Here, we identified a novel function of SESAME in regulating telomere heterochromatin structure. SESAME phosphorylates H3T11 at telomeres, which promotes SIR (silent information regulator) complex assembly at telomeres and protects Sir2 from degradation by autophagy. Moreover, SESAMEcatalyzed H3pT11 directly represses autophagy-related gene expression to further prevent autophagy-mediated Sir2 degradation. By promoting H3pT11, serine increases Sir2 protein levels and enhances telomere silencing. Loss of H3pT11 leads to reduced Sir2 and compromised telomere silencing during chronological aging. Together, our study provides insights into dynamic regulation of silent heterochromatin by histone modifications and autophagy in response to cell metabolism and aging.

Project description:H3K4me3 is catalyzed by the Set1/MLL family of methyltransferases, whose function in catalyzing H3K4me3 is unique. Impaired function of Set1/MLL family members can lead to many abnormalities, such as bone and nerve defects, leukemia, and even death. Although the Set1 family plays an important regulatory role in various biological processes, it is still unclear how the Set1 protein itself is regulated and how protein levels are maintained. Due to the numerous homologues, complex composition, and high molecular weight of Set1 in higher organisms, especially humans, related research is greatly limited. In brewing yeast, Set1 is the only methyltransferase that catalyzes H3K4me3 and is highly conserved between species. Therefore, yeast is an ideal model for studying the functions and mechanisms of the Set1 family. In addition, Set1 protein plays an important role in regulating gene transcription, promoting telomere silencing, and maintaining cell lifespan. The Set1 family also plays an important regulatory role in the occurrence and development of various cancers.
