Abstract:
Abstract The polycomb repressive complex (PRC) 2 contains 3 core proteins, EZH2, SUZ12, and EED, in which the SET (suppressor of variegation–enhancer of zeste-trithorax) domain of EZH2 mediates the histone methyltransferase activity. This induces trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3, regulates the expression of HOX genes, and promotes proliferation and aggressiveness of neoplastic cells. In this study, we demonstrate that treatment with the S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase inhibitor 3-deazaneplanocin A (DZNep) depletes EZH2 levels, and inhibits trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 in the cultured human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) HL-60 and OCI-AML3 cells and in primary AML cells. DZNep treatment induced p16, p21, p27, and FBXO32 while depleting cyclin E and HOXA9 levels. Similar findings were observed after treatment with small interfering RNA to EZH2. In addition, DZNep treatment induced apoptosis in cultured and primary AML cells. Furthermore, compared with treatment with each agent alone, cotreatment with DZNep and the pan-histone deacetylase inhibitor panobinostat caused more depletion of EZH2, induced more apoptosis of AML, but not normal CD34+ bone marrow progenitor cells, and significantly improved survival of nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency mice with HL-60 leukemia. These findings indicate that the combination of DZNep and panobinostat is effective and relatively selective epigenetic therapy against AML cells.

Abstract:
Abstract Histone methylation is thought to be important for regulating Ag-driven T-cell responses. However, little is known about the effect of modulating histone methylation on inflammatory T-cell responses. We demonstrate that in vivo administration of the histone methylation inhibitor 3-deazaneplanocin A (DZNep) arrests ongoing GVHD in mice after allogeneic BM transplantation. DZNep caused selective apoptosis in alloantigen-activated T cells mediating host tissue injury. This effect was associated with the ability of DZNep to selectively reduce trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27, deplete the histone methyltransferase Ezh2 specific to trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27, and activate proapoptotic gene Bim repressed by Ezh2 in antigenic-activated T cells. In contrast, DZNep did not affect the survival of alloantigen-unresponsive T cells in vivo and naive T cells stimulated by IL-2 or IL-7 in vitro. Importantly, inhibition of histone methylation by DZNep treatment in vivo preserved the antileukemia activity of donor T cells and did not impair the recovery of hematopoiesis and lymphocytes, leading to significantly improved survival of recipients after allogeneic BM transplantation. Our findings indicate that modulation of histone methylation may have significant implications in the development of novel approaches to treat ongoing GVHD and other T cell–mediated inflammatory disorders in a broad context.

Abstract:
Abstract Although rapid, membrane-activated estrogen receptor (ER) signaling is no longer controversial, the biological function of this nongenomic signaling is not fully characterized. We found that rapid signaling from membrane-associated ER regulates the histone methyltransferase enhancer of Zeste homolog 2 (EZH2). In response to both 17β-estradiol (E2) and the xenoestrogen diethylstilbestrol, ER signaling via phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B phosphorylates EZH2 at S21, reducing levels of trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 in hormone-responsive cells. During windows of uterine development that are susceptible to developmental reprogramming, activation of this ER signaling pathway by diethylstilbestrol resulted in phosphorylation of EZH2 and reduced levels of trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 in chromatin of the developing uterus. Furthermore, activation of nongenomic signaling reprogrammed the expression profile of estrogen-responsive genes in uterine myometrial cells, suggesting this as a potential mechanism for developmental reprogramming caused by early-life exposure to xenoestrogens. These data demonstrate that rapid ER signaling provides a direct linkage between xenoestrogen-induced nuclear hormone receptor signaling and modulation of the epigenetic machinery during tissue development.

Abstract:
Abstract Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a rare but deadly pediatric brainstem tumor. To date, there is no effective therapy for DIPG. Transcriptomic analyses have revealed DIPGs have a distinct profile from other pediatric high-grade gliomas occurring in the cerebral hemispheres. These unique genomic characteristics coupled with the younger median age group suggest that DIPG has a developmental origin. The most frequent mutation in DIPG is a lysine to methionine (K27M) mutation that occurs on H3F3A and HIST1H3B/C, genes encoding histone variants. The K27M mutation disrupts methylation by polycomb repressive complex 2 on histone H3 at lysine 27, leading to global hypomethylation. Histone 3 lysine 27 trimethylation is an important developmental regulator controlling gene expression. This review discusses the developmental and epigenetic mechanisms driving disease progression in DIPG, as well as the profound therapeutic implications of epigenetic programming.

Abstract:
Nuclear organization has been implicated in regulating gene activity. Recently, large developmentally regulated regions of the genome dynamically associated with the nuclear lamina have been identified. However, little is known about how these lamina-associated domains (LADs) are directed to the nuclear lamina. We use our tagged chromosomal insertion site system to identify small sequences from borders of fibroblast-specific variable LADs that are sufficient to target these ectopic sites to the nuclear periphery. We identify YY1 (Ying-Yang1) binding sites as enriched in relocating sequences. Knockdown of YY1 or lamin A/C, but not lamin A, led to a loss of lamina association. In addition, targeted recruitment of YY1 proteins facilitated ectopic LAD formation dependent on histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation and histone H3 lysine di- and trimethylation. Our results also reveal that endogenous loci appear to be dependent on lamin A/C, YY1, H3K27me3, and H3K9me2/3 for maintenance of lamina-proximal positioning.

Abstract:
Tumor suppressor p53-directed apoptosis triggers loss of normal cells, which contributes to the side-effects from anticancer therapies. Thus, small molecules with potential to downregulate the activation of p53 could minimize pathology emerging from anticancer therapies. Acetylation of p53 by the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) domain is the hallmark of coactivator CREB-binding protein (CBP) epigenetic function. During genotoxic stress, CBP HAT-mediated acetylation is essential for the activation of p53 to transcriptionally govern target genes, which control cellular responses. Here, we present a small molecule, NiCur, which blocks CBP HAT activity and downregulates p53 activation upon genotoxic stress. Computational modeling reveals that NiCur docks into the active site of CBP HAT. On CDKN1A promoter, the recruitment of p53 as well as RNA Polymerase II and levels of acetylation on histone H3 were diminished by NiCur. Specifically, NiCur reduces the levels of acetylation at lysine 27 on histone H3, which concomitantly increases the levels of trimethylation at lysine 27. Finally, NiCur attenuates p53-directed apoptosis by inhibiting the Caspase 3 activity and cleavage of Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) in normal gastrointestinal epithelial cells. Collectively, NiCur demonstrates the potential to reprogram the chromatin landscape and modulate biological outcomes of CBP-mediated acetylation under normal and disease conditions.

Abstract:
Analyse fonctionnelle de la protéine Enhancer of Zeste, SlEZ2, chez la tomate, Solanum lycopersicumLes protéines Polycomb, initialement découvertes chez la drosophile, ont récemment caractérisées chez les plantes où elles remplissent des fonctions essentielles au cours du développement de la plante. Chez la drosophile, les protéines polycomb (PcG) agissent sous forme de trois complexes multi-protéiques : PRC1, PRC2 et PhoRC. Seulement, deux de ces complexes ont été identifiés chez les plantes : un orthologue fonctionnel du complexe PRC1 (PRC1-like) et PRC2. Le complexe PRC2 maintien la chromatine dans un état condensé et intervient dans le contrôle du développement des fleurs, des graines, des fruits et des feuilles. Chez la tomate Solanum lycopersicum, le complexe PRC2 est composé de trois protéines polycomb : SlEMF2 (EMbryotic Flower), SlFIE (Fertilization Independent Endosperm) and SlE(Z) (Enhancer of Zeste). Les protéines SlE(Z) portent l’activité histone méthyl transférase qui permet la mise en place de la marque répressive H3K27me3. Chez la plante modèle, Arabidopsis thaliana, cette marque joue un rôle essentiel au cours du développement de la plante Afin d’étudier le rôle du complexe PRC2 dans le développement du fruit et de la plante de tomate, et plus particulièrement de la protéine SlE(Z), nous avons identifié trois gènes codant les protéines SlE(Z) : SlEZ1, SlEZ2 et SlEZ3. Au laboratoire, il a récemment été montré que la protéine SlEZ1 intervient au cours du développement floral (How Kit et al., 2010). L’objectif de ce travail est de déterminer la fonction de la protéine SlEZ2 au cours du développement du fruit et de la plante de tomate. Pour cela, nous avons analysé des plantes transgéniques sous exprimant le gène SlEZ2, orthologue au gène CURLY LEAF d’A. thaliana, par stratégie RNAi. Ce travail indique que la protéine SlEZ2 est impliquée dans la croissance de la plante de tomate, ainsi que dans le développement des feuilles, des fleurs et des fruits. Les plantes transgéniques présentent des phénotypes pléiotropes tels que des fleurs et des feuilles modifiées, un fort taux d’avortement des fruits, des fruits de texture et de couleur altérées ainsi qu’une réduction de la taille des plantes. De plus, nous avons identifiés quatre gènes ciblés par la protéine SlEZ2 dont l’expression est dérégulée dans les feuilles. Il s’agit de deux gènes à MADS box, TAG1 et TAGL1, ainsi que de deux gènes KNOX, LeT6 et TKN4
Functional analysis SlEZ2, a tomato Enhancer of zeste proteinPolycomb proteins, first discovered in Drosophila, have been identified in plants and play essential functions in plant development. In Drosophila, polycomb proteins (PcG) acts as a complex and three have been identified: PRC1, PRC2 and PhoRC. However, only two polycomb complexes have been identified in plants: like-PCR1 and PRC2. The PCR2 complex maintain chromatin in a closed state and control flower, seed, fruit and leaf development.In tomato Solanum lycopersicum, PRC2 is composed by three polycomb proteins SlEMF2 (EMbryotic Flower), SlFIE (Fertilization Independent Endosperm) and SlE(Z) (Enhancer of Zeste)(Enhancer of Zeste). SlE(Z) proteins have a methyltransferase activity that puts in place an repressive epigenetic mark a trimethylation of lysine 27 histone 3. In plant model, Arabidopsis thaliana, this mark plays an essential role in plant development but little is known about PRC2 role in plant and fruit development of tomato. In order to unravel the function of the E(z) protein in the control of tomato fruit and plant development, we have characterized three E(z) encoding genes, namely SlEz1, SlEz2 and SlEZ3. In a recent work, we reported that SlEZ1 protein plays a role in flower development (How Kit at al., 2010). The aim of this present study was to determine the function of the SlEZ2 protein in plant and fruit development. We present our results focusing on RNAi transgenic plants which underexpressed SlEZ2 gene, homologue of Curly Leaf Arabidopsis gene. This analysis indicates that SlEZ2 protein is implicated in tomato plant growth and affects also leaf, flower and fruit development. Phenotypes include abnormal flowers and leafs, fruit development abortion, altered fruit colour and texture and plant of reduced size. Moreover, we characterize four target genes of SlEZ2 genes in leaves which present a deregulated expression : TAG1, TAGL1, LeT6 and TKN4

Abstract:
Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) marks facultative heterochromatin, containing silent genes. My research investigated factors that influence the distribution of H3K27me3 in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa. The H3K27 methyltransferase complex, PRC2, is well conserved in eukaryotes and consists of four core members: E(Z), EED, SUZ12 and P55. I showed that three of the PRC2 subunits (SET-7, the homolog of E(Z), EED and SUZ12) are required for H3K27me3 in Neurospora, while NPF, the homolog of P55, is only required for a subset of H3K27me3 domains. H3K27me3 is organized into large, gene-rich domains in Neurospora and normally does not overlap with constitutive heterochromatin, which is marked by both H3K9me3 and DNA methylation and bound by heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1). I discovered that loss of HP1 binding results in a genome-wide relocalization of H3K27me3. Specifically, it is lost from many of its normal domains while it becomes associated with much of the genome that is constitutive heterochromatin. This contrasts plant and mouse studies in which the loss of DNA methylation relocalizes H3K27me3. The DCDC complex is the H3K9-specific methyltransferase consisting of DIM-5, DIM-7, DIM-9, CUL4 and DIM-8. Separate deletions of DCDC subunits, with the exception of dim-7, relocalized H3K27me3 to constitutive heterochromatin, presumably due to the loss of HP1 binding. The deletion of dim-7 resulted in the loss of all H3K27me3, suggesting a novel role for dim-7. To look for a recruitment signal for PRC2, I moved large fragments contained within an H3K27me3 domain to loci devoid of H3K27me3, his-3 and csr-1. None of the fragments induced H3K27me3, demonstrating that a recruitment signal is not present within every fragment of H3K27me3-marked DNA. Large chromosomal rearrangements had profound effects on H3K27me3 domains, resulting in the loss of some H3K27me3 domains and the formation of others. In Drosophila and mammals, a subset of PRC2 complexes contains the histone deacetylase, Rpd3. A close homolog of Rpd3 in Neurospora, HDA-3, did not appear to be a member of PRC2 in Neurospora. This dissertation includes both previously published and unpublished co-authored material.
