Abstract:
We reported a novel mutation of thyroid hormone receptor (TR)-β, F455S, in a patient with pituitary resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH), who showed impaired release of nuclear receptor corepressor and abnormal histone deacetylation. In the present study, we further analyzed the histone modifications and the dynamics of TR and RNA polymerase II on the TRH gene. The lysine residues 9 (H3K9) and 14 (K14) of the histone H3 were acetylated in the absence of thyroid hormone (TH), and addition of TH caused a temporary deacetylation of both residues. Although H3K4 was di- and trimethylated in the abse

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Histone lysine methylation regulates genomic functions, including gene transcription. Previous reports found various degrees of methylation at H3K4, H3K9, and H4K20 within the transcribed region of active mammalian genes. To identify the enzymes responsible for placing these modifications, we examined ASH1L, the mammalian homolog of the Drosophila melanogaster Trithorax group (TrxG) protein Ash1. Drosophila Ash1 has been reported to methylate H3K4, H3K9, and H4K20 at its target sites. Here we demonstrate that mammalian ASH1L associates with the transcribed region of all active genes e

Abstract:
The KMT2 (MLL) family of proteins, including the major histone H3K4 methyltransferase found in mammals, exists as large complexes with common subunit proteins and exhibits enzymatic activity. SMYD, another H3K4 methyltransferase, and SET7/9 proteins catalyze the methylation of several non-histone targets, in addition to histone H3K4 residues. Despite these structural and functional commonalities, H3K4 methyltransferase proteins have specificity for their target genes and play a role in the development of various cancers as well as in drug resistance. In this review, we examine the overall role

Abstract In mammalian cells, distinct H3K4 methylation states are created by deposition of methyl groups by multiple complexes of histone lysine methyltransferase 2 (KMT2) family proteins. For comprehensive analyses that directly compare the catalytic properties of all six human KMT2 complexes, we employed a biochemically defined system reconstituted with recombinant KMT2 core complexes (KMT2CoreCs) containing minimal components required for nucleosomal H3K4 methylation activity. We found that each KMT2CoreC generates distinct states and different levels of H3K4 methylation, and except for MLL

Cell migration through extracellular matrices requires nuclear deformation, which depends on nuclear stiffness. In turn, chromatin structure contributes to nuclear stiffness, but the mechanosensing pathways regulating chromatin during cell migration remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that WD repeat domain 5 (WDR5), an essential component of H3K4 methyltransferase complexes, regulates cell polarity, nuclear deformability, and migration of lymphocytes in vitro and in vivo, independent of transcriptional activity, suggesting nongenomic functions for WDR5.

Background/Aims: Aberrantly high levels of H3K4me3, caused by incomplete epigenetic reprogramming, likely cause a low efficiency of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT).

In this study, we examined the effects of MM-102, an H3K4 histone methyltransferase inhibitor, on porcine SCNT preimplantation embryos to investigate the mechanism by which H3K4 methylation regulated global epigenetic reprograming during SCNT.

Abstract:
The Mixed Lineage Leukemia 2 (MLL2) protein, also known as KMT2B, belongs to the family of mammalian histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferases. It is a large protein of 2715 amino acids, widely expressed in adult human tissues and a paralog of the MLL1 protein. MLL2 contains a characteristic C-terminal SET domain responsible for methyltransferase activity and forms a protein complex with WRAD (WDR5, RbBP5, ASH2L and DPY30), host cell factors 1/2 (HCF 1/2) and Menin. The MLL2 complex is responsible for H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) on specific gene promoters and nearby cis-regulatory sites,

Abstract:
Covalent modification of histones is an important factor in the regulation of the chromatin structure implicated in DNA replication, repair, recombination, and transcription, as well as in RNA processing. In recent years, histone methylation has emerged as one of the key modifications regulating chromatin function. However, the mechanisms involved are complex and not well understood. Histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methylation is deposited by a family of histone H3K4 methyltransferases (HMTs) that share a conserved SET domain. In mammalian cells, six family members have been characterized: Setd1a an

Abstract:
Methylation of lysine residues in histone tails is an intensively studied epigenetic signal that regulates transcription throughout development. Methylation of histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4) is usually associated with promoters of actively transcribed genes whereas H3K27 or H3K9 methylation silences genes. Yeast possess only one H3K4 methyltransferase, Set1. In contrast, there are six enzymes capable of catalyzing this modification in mammals implying a certain specialization or division of labor.
