The DNA of eukaryotes is wrapped around nucleosomes and packaged into chromatin. Covalent modifications of the histone proteins that comprise the nucleosome alter chromatin structure and have major effects on gene expression. Methylation of the fourth lysine of histone H3 by COMPASS is required for silencing of genes located near chromosome telomeres and within the rDNA (Krogan, N. J, Dover, J., Khorrami, S., Greenblatt, J. F., Schneider, J., Johnston, M., and Shilatifard, A. (2002) J Biol Chem. 277, 10753-10755; Briggs, S., D., Bryk, M., Strahl, B., D., Cheung, W., L., Davie, J., K., Dent, S., Y., Winston, F., Allis, C., D. (2001) Genes. Dev. 2001 15, 3286-3295). To learn about the mechanism of histone methylation, we surveyed the genome of the yeast S. cerevisiae for genes necessary for this process. By analyzing approximately 4800 mutant strains, each deleted for a different non-essential gene, we discovered that the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Rad6 is required for methylation of lysine 4 of histone H3. Ubiquitination of histone H2B on lysine 123 is the signal for the methylation of histone H3, which leads to silencing of genes located near telomeres.
