Abstract
The human methyltransferase MLL4 plays a critical role in embryogenesis and development, and aberrant activity of MLL4 is linked to neurodegenerative and developmental disorders and cancer. MLL4 contains the catalytic SET domain that catalyzes mono methylation of lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4me1) and seven plant homeodomain (PHD) fingers, six of which have not been structurally and functionally characterized. Here, we demonstrate that the triple PHD finger cassette of MLL4, harboring its fourth, fifth and sixth PHD fingers (MLL4PHD456) forms an integrated module, maintains the binding selectivity of the PHD6 finger toward acetylated lysine 16 of histone H4 (H4K16ac), and is capable of binding to DNA. Our findings highlight functional correlation between H4K16ac and H3K4me1, two major histone modifications that are recognized and written, respectively, by MLL4.

Abstract
Human mixed lineage leukemia 4 (MLL4), also known as KMT2D, regulates cell type specific transcriptional programs through enhancer activation. Along with the catalytic methyltransferase domain, MLL4 contains seven less characterized plant homeodomain (PHD) fingers. Here, we report that the sixth PHD finger of MLL4 (MLL4PHD6) binds to the hydrophobic motif of ten-eleven translocation 3 (TET3), a dioxygenase that converts methylated cytosine into oxidized derivatives. The solution NMR structure of the TET3-MLL4PHD6 complex and binding assays show that, like histone H4 tail, TET3 occupies the hydrophobic site of MLL4PHD6, and that this interaction is conserved in the seventh PHD finger of homologous MLL3 (MLL3PHD7). Analysis of genomic localization of endogenous MLL4 and ectopically expressed TET3 in mouse embryonic stem cells reveals a high degree overlap on active enhancers and suggests a potential functional relationship of MLL4 and TET3.

Abstract
The fundamental repeat unit of chromatin, the nucleosome, consists of approximately 147 base pairs of double-stranded DNA and a histone protein octamer containing two copies each of histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. Each histone possesses a dynamically disordered N-terminal tail domain, and it is well-established that the tails of histones H3 and H4 play key roles in chromatin compaction and regulation. Here we investigate the conformational ensemble and interactions of the H4 tail in nucleosomes by means of solution NMR measurements of paramagnetic relaxation enhancements (PREs) in recombinant samples reconstituted with 15N-enriched H4 and nitroxide spin-label tagged H3. The experimental PREs, which report on the proximities of individual H4 tail residues to the different H3 spin-label sites, are interpreted by using microsecond time-scale molecular dynamics simulations of the nucleosome core particle. Collectively, these data enable improved localization of histone H4 tails in nucleosomes and support the notion that H4 tails engage in a fuzzy complex interaction with nucleosomal DNA.

Abstract
Chromatin, a dynamic protein-DNA complex that regulates eukaryotic genome accessibility and essential functions, is composed of nucleosomes connected by linker DNA with each nucleosome consisting of DNA wrapped around an octamer of histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. Magic angle spinning solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can yield unique insights into histone structure and dynamics in condensed nucleosomes and nucleosome arrays representative of chromatin at physiological concentrations. Recently we used J-coupling-based solid-state NMR methods to investigate with residue-specific resolution the conformational dynamics of histone H3 N-terminal tails in 16-mer nucleosome arrays containing 15, 30 or 60 bp DNA linkers. Here, we probe the H3 core domain in the 16-mer arrays as a function of DNA linker length via dipolar coupling-based 1H-detected solid-state NMR techniques. Specifically, we established nearly complete assignments of backbone chemical shifts for H3 core residues in arrays with 15-60 bp DNA linkers reconstituted with 2H,13C,15N-labeled H3. Overall, these chemical shifts were similar irrespective of the DNA linker length indicating no major changes in H3 core conformation. Notably, however, multiple residues at the H3-nucleosomal DNA interface in arrays with 15 bp DNA linkers exhibited relatively pronounced differences in chemical shifts and line broadening compared to arrays with 30 and 60 bp linkers. These findings are consistent with increased heterogeneity in nucleosome packing and structural strain within arrays containing short DNA linkers that likely leads to side-chains of these interfacial residues experiencing alternate conformations or shifts in their rotamer populations relative to arrays with the longer DNA linkers.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 envelope (E) protein hijacks human BRD4 (bromodomain and extra-terminal domain protein 4). Here, we describe a protocol to characterize the interaction of the acetylated E protein with BRD4 in vivo. We detail steps to use NMR spectroscopy to map the binding interface and include steps to monitor the effect of BRD4 inhibitors in SARS-CoV-2-infected human lung bronchial epithelial cells. This approach could be applied to study interactions involving other viral and human proteins. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Vann et al. (2022).1.

Abstract
Viruses use diverse tactics to hijack host cellular machineries to evade innate immune responses and maintain their life cycles. Being critical transcriptional regulators, human BET proteins are prominent targets of a growing number of viruses. The BET proteins associate with chromatin through the interaction of their bromodomains with acetylated histones, whereas the carboxy-terminal domains of these proteins contain docking sites for various human co-transcriptional regulators. The same docking sites however can be occupied by viral proteins that exploit the BET proteins to anchor their genome components to chromatin in the infected host cell. In this review we highlight the pathological functions of the BET proteins upon viral infection, focusing on the mechanisms underlying their direct interactions with viral proteins, such as the envelope protein from SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
Emerging new variants of SARS-CoV-2 and inevitable acquired drug resistance call for the continued search of new pharmacological targets to fight the potentially fatal infection. Here, we describe the mechanisms by which the E protein of SARS-CoV-2 hijacks the human transcriptional regulator BRD4. We found that SARS-CoV-2 E is acetylated in vivo and co-immunoprecipitates with BRD4 in human cells. Bromodomains (BDs) of BRD4 bind to the C-terminus of the E protein, acetylated by human acetyltransferase p300, whereas the ET domain of BRD4 recognizes the unmodified motif of the E protein. Inhibitors of BRD4 BDs, JQ1 or OTX015, decrease SARS-CoV-2 infectivity in lung bronchial epithelial cells, indicating that the acetyllysine binding function of BDs is necessary for the virus fitness and that BRD4 represents a potential anti-COVID-19 target. Our findings provide insight into molecular mechanisms that contribute to SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis and shed light on a new strategy to block SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Abstract
p300 is a human acetyltransferase that associates with chromatin and mediates vital cellular processes. We now report the cryo-electron microscopy structures of the p300 catalytic core in complex with the nucleosome core particle (NCP). In the most resolved structure, the HAT domain and bromodomain of p300 contact nucleosomal DNA at superhelical locations 2 and 3, and the catalytic site of the HAT domain are positioned near the N-terminal tail of histone H4. Mutations of the p300-DNA interfacial residues of p300 substantially decrease binding to NCP. Three additional classes of p300-NCP complexes show different modes of the p300-NCP complex formation. Our data provide structural details critical to our understanding of the mechanism by which p300 acetylates multiple sites on the nucleosome.

Abstract
The transcriptional co-activator and acetyltransferase p300 is required for fundamental cellular processes, including differentiation and growth. Here, we report that p300 forms phase separated condensates in the cell nucleus. The phase separation ability of p300 is regulated by autoacetylation and relies on its catalytic core components, including the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) domain, the autoinhibition loop, and bromodomain. p300 condensates sequester chromatin components, such as histone H3 tail and DNA, and are amplified through binding of p300 to the nucleosome. The catalytic HAT activity of p300 is decreased due to occlusion of the active site in the phase separated droplets, a large portion of which co-localizes with chromatin regions enriched in H3K27me3. Our findings suggest a model in which p300 condensates can act as a storage pool of the protein with reduced HAT activity, allowing p300 to be compartmentalized and concentrated at poised or repressed chromatin regions. The histone acetyltransferase p300 mostly localizes to active chromatin; however, some repressed genes marked with H3K27me3 are also bound by p300. Here the authors show p300 is capable of phase separation, which relies on its catalytic core, and that p300 catalytic activity is decreased in phase-separated droplets that co-localize with H3K27me3-marked chromatin.

Abstract
Chromatin is a supramolecular DNA-protein complex that compacts eukaryotic genomes and regulates their accessibility and functions. Dynamically disordered histone H3 N-terminal tails are among key chromatin regulatory components. Here, we used high-resolution-magic-angle-spinning NMR measurements of backbone amide 15N spin relaxation rates to investigate, with residue-specific detail, the dynamics and interactions of H3 tails in recombinant 13C,15N-enriched nucleosome arrays containing 15, 30, or 60 bp linker DNA between the nucleosome repeats. These measurements were compared to analogous data available for mononucleosomes devoid of linker DNA or containing two 20 bp DNA overhangs. The H3 tail dynamics in nucleosome arrays were found to be considerably attenuated compared with nucleosomes with or without linker DNA due to transient electrostatic interactions with the linker DNA segments and the structured chromatin environment. Remarkably, however, the H3 tail dynamics were not modulated by the specific linker DNA length within the 15-60 bp range investigated here.

Abstract
Chromosomal translocations of the AF10 (or MLLT10) gene are frequently found in acute leukemias. Here, we show that the PZP domain of AF10 (AF10PZP), which is consistently impaired or deleted in leukemogenic AF10 translocations, plays a critical role in blocking malignant transformation. Incorporation of functional AF10PZP into the leukemogenic CALM-AF10 fusion prevents the transforming activity of the fusion in bone marrow-derived hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in vitro and in vivo and abrogates CALM-AF10-mediated leukemogenesis in vivo. Crystallographic, biochemical and mutagenesis studies reveal that AF10PZP binds to the nucleosome core particle through multivalent contacts with the histone H3 tail and DNA and associates with chromatin in cells, colocalizing with active methylation marks and discriminating against the repressive H3K27me3 mark. AF10PZP promotes nuclear localization of CALM-AF10 and is required for association with chromatin. Our data indicate that the disruption of AF10PZP function in the CALM-AF10 fusion directly leads to transformation, whereas the inclusion of AF10PZP downregulates Hoxa genes and reverses cellular transformation. Our findings highlight the molecular mechanism by which AF10 targets chromatin and suggest a model for the AF10PZP-dependent CALM-AF10-mediated leukemogenesis.

Abstract
The interaction of positively charged N-terminal histone tails with nucleosomal DNA plays an important role in chromatin assembly and regulation, modulating their susceptibility to post-translational modifications and recognition by chromatin-binding proteins. Here, we report residue-specific 15 N NMR relaxation rates for histone H4 tails in reconstituted nucleosomes. These data indicate that H4 tails are strongly dynamically disordered, albeit with reduced conformational flexibility compared to a free peptide with the same sequence. Remarkably, the NMR observables were successfully reproduced in a 2-μs MD trajectory of the nucleosome. This is an important step toward resolving an apparent inconsistency where prior simulations were generally at odds with experimental evidence on conformational dynamics of histone tails. Our findings indicate that histone H4 tails engage in a fuzzy interaction with nucleosomal DNA, underpinned by a variable pattern of short-lived salt bridges and hydrogen bonds, which persists at low ionic strength (0-100 mM NaCl).

Abstract
On the standard perspective, anorexia nervosa and other eating disorders are caused by genetically determined, neurochemically mediated mental illnesses. Standard treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), targets cognitive processes thought to maintain the disorders. Effective neurochemically based treatments are not available and the rate of remission is ≤25% 1 year after CBT, with unknown outcomes in the long-term. With starvation as the major threat in biological history, the evolutionary perspective focuses on foraging for food and eating behavior. A neural network, including hypothalamic arcuate peptide-neurons, brainstem serotonin- and dopamine-neurons and their prefrontal cortical projections, mediates (rather than controls) the behavioral adaptations to variations in food availability; activation of the network is associated with opposing behavioral outcomes depending upon external variations. In the clinic, the control of eating behavior is therefore outsourced to a machine that provides feedback on how to eat. Hundreds of eating disorders patients have recovered by practicing eating; the rate of remission is 75% in on average 1 year of treatment, the rate of relapse is 10% over 5 years of follow-up and no patient has died. A two-parameter asymptotic exponential growth curve modeled the eating behavior of 17 healthy women but not that of 17 women with anorexia nervosa. When in remission, the eating behavior of the anorexic women approached that of the healthy women. It is suggested that the treatment of eating disorders should focus on eating behavior.

Abstract
We examine the science and evidence supporting cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for the treatment of bulimia nervosa and other eating disorders. Recent trials focusing on the abnormal cognitive and emotional aspects of bulimia have reported a remission rate of about 45%, and a relapse rate of about 30% within one year. However, an early CBT trial that emphasized the normalization of eating behavior had a better outcome than treatment that focused on cognitive intervention. In support of this finding, another treatment, that restores a normal eating behavior using mealtime feedback, has an estimated remission rate of about 75% and a relapse rate of about 10% over five years. Moreover, when eating behavior was normalized, cognitive and emotional abnormalities were resolved at remission without cognitive therapy. The critical aspect of the CBT treatment of bulimia nervosa therefore may actually have been the normalization of eating behavior.

Abstract
We previously have described a model of multiple sclerosis (MS) in which constitutive expression of murine interleukin (IL)-2 by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) (HSV-IL-2) causes central nervous system (CNS) demyelination in different strains of mice. In the current study, we investigated whether this HSV-IL-2-induced demyelination can be blocked using recombinant viruses expressing different cytokines or by injection of plasmid DNA. We have found that coinfection of HSV-IL-2-infected mice with recombinant viruses expressing IL-12p35, IL-12p40 or IL-12p35+IL-12p40 did not block the CNS demyelination, and that coinfection with a recombinant virus expressing interferon (IFN)-γ exacerbated it. In contrast, coinfection with a recombinant virus expressing IL-4 reduced demyelination, whereas coinfection of HSV-IL-2-infected mice with a recombinant HSV-1 expressing the IL-12 heterodimer (HSV-IL-12p70) blocked the CNS demyelination in a dose-dependent manner. Similarly, injection of IL-12p70 DNA blocked HSV-IL-2-induced CNS demyelination in a dose-dependent manner and injection of IL-35 DNA significantly reduced CNS demyelination. Injection of mice with IL-12p35 DNA, IL-12p40 DNA, IL-12p35+IL-12p40 DNA or IL-23 DNA did not have any effect on HSV-IL-2-induced demyelination, whereas injection of IL-27 DNA increased the severity of the CNS demyelination in the HSV-IL-2-infected mice. This study demonstrates for the first time that IL-12p70 can block HSV-IL-2-induced CNS demyelination and that IL-35 can also reduce this demyelination, whereas IFN-γ and IL-27 exacerbated the demyelination in the CNS of the HSV-IL-2-infected mice. Our results suggest a potential role for IL-12p70 and IL-35 signaling in the inhibition of HSV-IL-2-induced immunopathology by preventing development of autoaggressive T cells.

Abstract
Outcome in anorexia nervosa remains poor and a new way of looking at this condition is therefore needed. To this aim, we review the effects of food restriction and starvation in humans. It is suggested that body weight remains stable and relatively low when the access to food requires a considerable amount of physical activity. In this condition, the human homeostatic phenotype, body fat content is also low and as a consequence, the synthesis and release of brain neurotransmitters are modified. As an example, the role of neuropeptide Y is analyzed in rat models of this state. It is suggested that the normal behavioral role of neuropeptide Y is to facilitate the search for food and switch attention from sexual stimuli to food. Descriptive neuroendocrine studies on patients with anorexia nervosa have not contributed to the management of the patients and the few studies in which hormones have been administered have, at best, reversed an endocrine consequence secondary to starvation. In a modified framework for understanding the etiology and treatment of anorexia nervosa it is suggested that the condition emerges because neural mechanisms of reward and attention are engaged. The neural neuropeptide Y receptor system may be involved in the maintenance of the behavior of eating disorder patients because the localization of these receptors overlaps with the neural systems engaged in cue-conditioned eating in limbic and cortical areas. The eating behavior of patients with anorexia nervosa, and other eating disorders as well, is viewed as a cause of the psychological changes of the patients. Patients are trained to re-learn normal eating habits using external support and as they do, their symptoms, including the psychological symptoms, dissolve.

Abstract
It is suggested that the symptoms of anorexia nervosa are physiological responses to starvation. There is no evidence of a neural or non-neural dysfunction that predisposes women for anorexia nervosa and the endocrine and psychological consequences of starvation are reversed once patients have re-learnt how to eat and regained a normal body weight. Because variability in the supply of food may be a common evolutionary condition, it is more likely that body weight is variable than constant in normal circumstances. The role of the neuroendocrine system in times of feast and famine is to allow the individual to adopt behavioral strategies as needed rather than maintaining body weight homeostasis. Treatment of anorexic patients should aim at reducing their high level of physical activity in order to facilitate eating.

Abstract
A wealth of data supports the idea that the stomach and cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) normally play important roles in meal size and satiety. We studied long-term gastrectomized humans to further evaluate this possibility. Ten humans, who were gastrectomized 8 (3-12) years earlier, and eight controls ate a meal from a plate placed on a scale connected to a computer and estimated their satiety every minute using a computerized rating scale. Blood levels of CCK-8 were measured before and after the meal. There was no difference between the groups in the amount of food consumed or in the perception of satiety during the meal. Gastrectomized humans had higher blood levels of CCK-8 than controls before the meal; the levels increased after the meal in the controls but not in the gastrectomized subjects. It is suggested that although the stomach and CCK-8 normally are involved in the control of meal size and satiety, their roles are dispensable.
