Sanchez A, Buck-Koehntop BA, Miller KM. Joining the PARty: PARP Regulation of KDM5A during DNA Repair (and Transcription?). Bioessays 2022; 44:e2200015. [PMID: 35532219 DOI: 10.1002/bies.202200015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Revised: 04/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
The lysine demethylase KDM5A collaborates with PARP1 and the histone variant macroH2A1.2 to modulate chromatin to promote DNA repair. Indeed, KDM5A engages poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) chains at damage sites through a previously uncharacterized coiled-coil domain, a novel binding mode for PAR interactions. While KDM5A is a well-known transcriptional regulator, its function in DNA repair is only now emerging. Here we review the molecular mechanisms that regulate this PARP1-macroH2A1.2-KDM5A axis in DNA damage and consider the potential involvement of this pathway in transcription regulation and cancer. Using KDM5A as an example, we discuss how multifunctional chromatin proteins transition between several DNA-based processes, which must be coordinated to protect the integrity of the genome and epigenome. The dysregulation of chromatin and loss of genome integrity that is prevalent in human diseases including cancer may be related and could provide opportunities to target multitasking proteins with these pathways as therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Lysine-specific demethylase 5A (KDM5A, also named RBP2 or JARID1A) is a demethylase that can remove methyl groups from histones H3K4me1/2/3. It is aberrantly expressed in many cancers, where it impedes differentiation and contributes to cancer cell proliferation, cell metastasis and invasiveness, drug resistance, and is associated with poor prognosis. Pharmacological inhibition of KDM5A has been reported to significantly attenuate tumor progression in vitro and in vivo in a range of solid tumors and acute myeloid leukemia. This review will present the structural aspects of KDM5A, its role in carcinogenesis, a comparison of currently available approaches for screening KDM5A inhibitors, a classification of KDM5A inhibitors, and its potential as a drug target in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Eukaryotic genomes are wrapped around nucleosomes and organized into different levels of chromatin structure. Chromatin organization has a crucial role in regulating all cellular processes involving DNA-protein interactions, such as DNA transcription, replication, recombination and repair. Histone post-translational modifications (HPTMs) have a prominent role in chromatin regulation, acting as a sophisticated molecular code, which is interpreted by HPTM-specific effectors. Here, we review the role of histone lysine methylation changes in regulating the response to radiation-induced genotoxic damage in mammalian cells. We also discuss the role of histone methyltransferases (HMTs) and histone demethylases (HDMs) and the effects of the modulation of their expression and/or the pharmacological inhibition of their activity on the radio-sensitivity of different cell lines. Finally, we provide a bioinformatic analysis of published datasets showing how the mRNA levels of known HMTs and HDMs are modulated in different cell lines by exposure to different irradiation conditions.

Genome-wide identification and transcriptional modulation of histone variants and modification related genes in the low pH-exposed marine rotifer Brachionus koreanus. COMPARATIVE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY D-GENOMICS & PROTEOMICS 2020; 36:100748.

Abstract
Histone modification is considered to be a major epigenetic control mechanism. These modifications (e.g. acetylation, phosphorylation, and methylation) may affect the interaction of histones with DNA and/or regulate DNA-based processes (e.g., recombination, repair, replication, and transcription) and chromatin remodeling complexes. Despite their significance in metazoan life and evolution, few studies have been conducted to identify genes undergoing epigenetic control modification in aquatic invertebrates. In this study, we identified whole core histones (70 total genes) and post-translational modification (PTM) histone genes (63 total genes) in the marine rotifer Brachionus koreanus through whole-genome analysis, and annotated them according to the human nomenclature. Notably, upon comparative analysis of cis-regulatory motif sequences, we found that B. koreanus core histone protein structures were similar to those of mammals. Furthermore, to examine the effect of parental low pH stress on the offspring's epigenetic regulation, we investigated the expression of PTM genes in two generations of B. koreanus exposed to low pH conditions. Given that the B. koreanus genome does not possess DNA methyltransferase 1 and 3 genes, we concluded that histone genes could be involved as an important epigenetic mechanism in B. koreanus. Therefore, the histone-associated genes identified in this study could be useful for ecotoxicological studies and facilitate the application of chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing using high-throughput DNA sequencing based on the genome-wide identification of transcription factor binding sites in rotifers.

FEBS Lett 2020; 594:1339-1353.

Abstract
Knocking out a chromatin factor often does not alter the transcription of its binding targets. What explains the observed disconnect between binding and effect? We hypothesize that this discrepancy could be associated with the role of chromatin factors in maintaining genetic and epigenetic integrity at promoters, and not necessarily with transcription. Through re-analysis of published datasets, we present several lines of evidence that support our hypothesis and deflate the popular assumptions. We also tested the hypothesis through mutation accumulation assays on yeast knockouts of chromatin factors. Altogether, the proposed hypothesis presents a simple explanation for the global discord between chromatin factor binding and effect. Future work in this direction might fortify the hypothesis and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

J Biol Chem 2019; 294:9642-9654.

Abstract
β-Catenin signaling is triggered by WNT proteins and is an important pathway that negatively regulates adipogenesis. However, the mechanisms controlling the expression of WNT proteins during adipogenesis remain incompletely understood. Lysine demethylase 5A (KDM5A) is a histone demethylase that removes trimethyl (me3) marks from lysine 4 of histone 3 (H3K4) and serves as a general transcriptional corepressor. Here, using the murine 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation model and an array of biochemical approaches, including ChIP, immunoprecipitation, RT-qPCR, and immunoblotting assays, we show that Kdm5a is a target gene of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β (C/EBPβ), an important early transcription factor required for adipogenesis. We found that C/EBPβ binds to the Kdm5a gene promoter and transactivates its expression. We also found that siRNA-mediated KDM5A down-regulation inhibits 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation. The KDM5A knockdown significantly up-regulates the negative regulator of adipogenesis Wnt6, having increased levels of the H3K4me3 mark on its promoter. We further observed that WNT6 knockdown significantly rescues adipogenesis inhibited by the KDM5A knockdown. Moreover, we noted that C/EBPβ negatively regulates Wnt6 expression by binding to the Wnt6 gene promoter and repressing Wnt6 transcription. Further experiments indicated that KDM5A interacts with C/EBPβ and that their interaction cooperatively inhibits Wnt6 transcription. Of note, C/EBPβ knockdown impaired the recruitment of KDM5A to the Wnt6 promoter, which had higher H3K4me3 levels. Our results suggest a mechanism involving C/EBPβ and KDM5A activities that down-regulates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway during 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation.

Spatially restricted loading of BRD2 at DNA double-strand breaks protects H4 acetylation domains and promotes DNA repair. Sci Rep 2017; 7:12921. [PMID: 29018219 PMCID: PMC5635005 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-13036-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2017] [Accepted: 09/14/2017] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The n-terminal tail of histone H4 recruits repair proteins, including 53BP1, to DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) and undergoes dynamic acetylation during DSB repair. However, how H4 acetylation (H4Ac) recruits repair proteins and reorganizes chromatin during DNA repair is unclear. Here, we show that the bromodomain protein BRD2 is recruited to DSBs. This recruitment requires binding of BRD2’s tandem bromodomains to H4Ac, which is generated at DSBs by the Tip60/KAT5 acetyltransferase. Binding of BRD2 to H4Ac protects the underlying acetylated chromatin from attack by histone deacetylases and allows acetylation to spread along the flanking chromatin. However, BRD2 recruitment is spatially restricted to a chromatin domain extending only 2 kb either side of the DSB, and BRD2 does not spread into the chromatin domains flanking the break. Instead, BRD2 facilitates recruitment of a second bromodomain protein, ZMYND8, which spreads along the flanking chromatin, but is excluded from the DSB region. This creates a spatially restricted H4Ac/BRD2 domain which reorganizes chromatin at DSBs, limits binding of the L3MBTL1 repressor and promotes 53BP1 binding, while limiting end-resection of DSBs. BRD2 therefore creates a restricted chromatin environment surrounding DSBs which facilitates DSB repair and which is framed by extensive ZMYND8 domains on the flanking chromatin.
