Post-translational modifications of histones, such as acetylation and methylation, are differentially positioned in chromatin with respect to gene organization. For example, although histone H3 is often trimethylated on lysine 4 (H3K4me3) and acetylated on lysine 14 (H3K14ac) at active promoter regions, histone H3 lysine 36 trimethylation (H3K36me3) occurs throughout the open reading frames of transcriptionally active genes. The conserved yeast histone acetyltransferase complex, NuA3, specifical ...[more]

Project description:Recognition of modified histones by “reader” proteins plays a critical role in the regulation of transcription1. H3K36 trimethylation (H3K36me3) is deposited onto the nucleosomes in the transcribed regions following RNA polymerase II (Pol II) elongation. In yeast, this mark in turn recruits epigenetic regulators to reset the chromatin at an appropriate state to suppress cryptic transcription2,3. However, much less is known about the role of H3K36me3 in transcription regulation in mammals. This is further complicated by the transcription-coupled incorporation of the histone variant H3.3 in gene bodies4. Here we show that the candidate tumor suppressor ZMYND11 specifically recognizes H3K36me3 on H3.3 (H3.3K36me3) and regulates Pol II elongation. Structural studies reveal that in addition to the trimethyl-lysine binding by an aromatic cage within the PWWP domain, the H3.3-dependent recognition is mediated by the encapsulation of the H3.3-specific “Ser31” residue in a composite pocket formed by the tandem bromo-PWWP domains of ZMYND11. ChIP-sequencing analysis reveal a genome-wide colocalization of ZMYND11 with H3K36me3 and H3.3 in gene bodies, and its occupancy requires the pre-deposition of H3.3K36me3. Although ZMYND11 is associated with highly expressed genes, it functions as an unconventional transcription corepressor via modulating the transition of the promoter-proximal paused Pol II to elongation. ZMYND11 is critical for the repression of a transcriptional program that is essential for tumor cell growth; higher expression of ZMYND11 is observed in triple-negative breast cancer patients with better prognosis. Consistently, overexpression of ZMYND11 suppresses cancer cell growth and tumor formation in mice. Together, this study identifies ZMYND11 as an H3.3-specific reader of H3K36me3 that links the histone variant-mediated transcription elongation control to tumor suppression. ChIP-seq analysis of ZMYND11, H3K36me3 in U2OS cells and ZMYND11 knockdown cells; ChIP-seq of H3.3 in Flag-H3.3 stable U2OS cells; RNA-seq of ZNYMD11 depleted U2OS cells.
