ABSTRACT |
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 lysine 4 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., and
Allis, C. D. (2001) Genes. Dev. 15, 3286-3295). To
learn about the mechanism of histone methylation, we surveyed the
genome of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for genes
necessary for this process. By analyzing ~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.

INTRODUCTION |
Heritable, quasistable modifications of histone proteins, such as
acetylation, phosphorylation, and methylation, play essential roles in
the regulation of gene expression in eukaryotic organisms and have been
proposed to be required for development and cellular commitment in
metazoans (1-3). Histone acetylations on histones H3 and H4 are the
best characterized covalent modifications of histones and have been
demonstrated to have wide ranging effects on the regulation of gene
expression (1). Phosphorylation has been demonstrated to be an
important modification of histone in transcriptional activation,
condensation of chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis, and regulation
of cell division.
Methylation of lysine 4 in the amino-terminal tail of histone H3,
mediated by a multiprotein complex we call
COMPASS1 (complex
of proteins associated with Set1) (4-7,
9), is required for silencing of expression of genes located near
chromosome telomeres and within the rDNA (5, 6). We and others have
demonstrated that COMPASS includes Set1, a member of the
chromatin-associated proteins (the Trithorax (Trx) group) that possess
a sequence motif called the SET domain, and seven other polypeptides
(4-7, 9). The SET domain takes its name from the Drosophila
proteins Su(var)3-9, Enhancer of zeste (E(z)),
and Trx. Also, COMPASS contains another yeast
protein related to the human Trx protein ASH2. SET domain-containing proteins have been implicated in histone methylation and regulation of
transcription in several organisms (5, 8-12). Although the SET
domain-containing proteins play fundamental roles in development and
oncogenesis, their molecular function is poorly understood (13-16).
To better understand the mechanism of histone H3 lysine 4 methylation,
we surveyed the genome of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for genes necessary in this process. Analysis of ~4800
mutant strains resulted in the discovery of the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Rad6 as a protein required for methylation of lysine 4 of
histone H3. We have demonstrated that ubiquitination of histone H2B on
lysine 123 is the signal for the methylation of histone H3 by COMPASS,
which leads to silencing of genes located near telomeres.

MATERIALS AND METHODS |
Preparation of Yeast Cell Extracts from 96-well
Plates--
Using a 96-well pinning device, the entire collection of
4800 yeast non-essential gene deletion mutants was inoculated from 80 °C stocks onto agar plates containing YPD (1% yeast extract, 2% proteo-peptone, 2% dextrose) + 200 µg/ml Geneticin
(Invitrogen), allowed to grow for 48 h, and used to inoculate
96-tube PCR plates filled with 100 µl of YPD. After 48 h of
growth at 30 °C the plates were centrifuged at 2000 × g for 10 min. Medium was removed by wrist-snap inversion and
draining into absorbent towels. Plates were then covered and frozen at
80 °C for up to 1 week. Cells were thawed at room temperature,
resuspended in 30 µl of lysis buffer (20 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM
dithiothreitol, 0.1% Nonidet P-40, 1 mg/ml Zymolyase 100T), and
incubated at 37 °C for 15 min. 10 µl of 4× Laemmli loading buffer
were added, and the samples were vortexed briefly before heating at
100 °C for 5 min.
Preparation of Total Yeast Cell Extracts and Analysis for Histone
H3 Lys-4 Methylation--
Yeast cells were grown to mid-log
phase in YPD medium, pelleted, washed with distilled water, pelleted,
and resuspended in lysis buffer (20 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% Nonidet P-40, 1 mM dithiothreitol, and fresh protease and phosphatase inhibitors (1 µg/ml aprotinin, leupeptin, and pepstatin A, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 1 µM
microcystin-LR, 2 mM
p-chloromercuriphenylsulfonic acid). Cells were then
disrupted by vortexing with glass beads (0.5 mm, Biospec Products) for
15 min at 4 °C. The bottoms of the microcentrifuge tubes were
punctured, and cell extracts were recovered into a larger tube by brief
centrifugation in a microcentrifuge. The lysate was clarified by
centrifugation at 20,000 × g for 30 min, subjected to
SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose membrane, and probed with
anti-methylhistone antiserum at 1:1000 dilution followed by
detection of the bound antibody with horseradish
peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibodies
(1:10,000 dilution).

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION |
Development of a Biochemical Screen in 96-well Plates to Identify
Genes Essential for Lys-4 Methylation of Histone H3--
To learn more
about the mechanism of histone methylation by COMPASS, we sought to
identify all the (non-essential) proteins in S. cerevisiae
necessary for methylation of Lys-4 of histone H3. As described under
"Materials and Methods," we developed a method to survey the genome
of S. cerevisiae for genes required for this histone
modification by testing extracts of each of the ~4800 viable mutants
for the presence of Lys-4-methylated histone H3. Mutants missing a
component of COMPASS are defective in this histone H3 modification. As
shown in Fig. 1A, cells
deleted for set1 are defective for the methylation of Lys-4
of histone H3. When this assay was performed in a 96-well plate, the
mutant cell missing Cps50/Yar003 was found to be defective for the
methylation of Lys-4 of histone H3. However, all of the other 95 mutants in this microtiter plate possess this modification (Fig.
1B).

wild-type S. cerevisiae or a set1 deletion mutant
were tested for the presence of Lys-4-methylated histone H3. Cell
extracts were subjected to 16% SDS-PAGE, blotted to nitrocellulose
membrane, and probed with affinity-purified polyclonal antiserum
(obtained from Abcam) specific for Lys-4 of histone H3 as described
previously (4 and 5). B, whole cell extracts from a
microtiter plate containing 96 different yeast strains, each missing a
different (non-essential) gene, one of which (row e,
lane 3) is the cps50/yar003w mutant
missing a subunit of COMPASS that is essential for histone H3 Lys-4
methylation, were analyzed for this histone modification as described
above. Arrows at position a1 and h3

Rad6 Is Essential for Lys-4 Methylation of Histone
H3--
Screening of all 52 microtiter plates containing the 4827 mutants we tested revealed that the rad6 deletion mutant is
defective in histone H3 Lys-4 methylation (Fig.
2A). This was confirmed by
testing histone H3 Lys-4 methylation in two independently generated rad6 mutants and the homozygous diploid generated from them
(Fig. 2, B and C). Also, the H3 Lys-4
methylation-deficient phenotype of the rad6 cells was
complemented by a plasmid containing RAD6 (Fig.
2D).

Rad6 is essential for the methylation of
lysine 4 of histone H3. A, extracts of S. cerevisiae mutants missing one of the ~4800 non-essential genes
were tested for the presence of Lys-4-methylated histone H3. One of the
mutants lacking this histone modification is rad6 (row
f, lane 12). Arrows at position

B and C, extracts of wild-type or two
independently generated mutant strains (MATa and MAT , and the
homozygous diploid generated from them) were tested for the presence of
Lys-4-methylated histone H3. D, the methylation-deficient
phenotype of the rad6 cells was complemented by an
episomal vector containing Rad6 cDNA both in rad6 strain and also rad6 homozygous diploid strain.

Lysine 123 of Rad6 Is Essential for Lys-4 Methylation of Histone
H3--
Rad6 is a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) (17) involved in
DNA repair (17, 18), DNA damage-induced mutagenesis (19, 20), meiosis
(21), transposition of retrotransposons (22), and gene silencing (23).
Rad6 catalyzes ubiquitination of Lys-123 of histone H2B (24). It seemed
possible that this modification of histone H2B is responsible for the
requirement of Rad6 for methylation of histone H3. Indeed, histone H3
is not Lys-4-methylated in a strain that is unable to attach ubiquitin
to Lys-123 of histone H2B (due to a change of Lys-123 to Arg) (Fig.
3). We conclude that ubiquitination of
H2B at Lys-123 is required for methylation of Lys-4 of histone H3. This
is consistent with the observation that RAD6 is required for
telomeric gene silencing (23) since methylation of histone H3 Lys-4 is
required for telomeric and rDNA silencing (5, 6).

Ubiquitination of lysine 123 of histone H2B

schematic representation of histone H2B and its lysine 123 that is
ubiquitinated by Rad6 (24). B, cell extracts from haploid
strains missing htb1-1 and htb2-1 and
containing a CEN-URA3 plasmid with HTA1 and either wild-type
HTB1 or htb1 with lysine 123 converted to
arginine (K123R, generously provided by Mary Anne Osley, Ref. 24) were
analyzed for the presence of Lys-4-methylated histone H3. C,
the presence of methylation of Lys-4 of histone H3 in yeast strains
missing genes encoding Rad6, Ubr1, Ubr2, Rad18, and Rex4 was determined
by subjecting 2000 ng of whole cell extracts from cells deleted for
these genes to 16% SDS-PAGE followed by immunoblotting as described
above. D, the presence of Rad6-containing macromolecular
complexes was determined by the application of wild-type yeast extract
on a Superose-6 PC size exclusion column. 100-µl fractions were
collected, and 25 µl were subjected to SDS-PAGE, then transferred to
nylon membranes, and probed with a Rad6-specific polyclonal antibody.
WT, wild type; Meth., methylated.

Involvement of Other Rad6-interacting Proteins in Lys-4 Methylation
of Histone H3--
Several proteins are involved with Rad6 in
diverse cellular processes (17-22). However, our genome-wide survey of
S. cerevisiae revealed that none of the mutants missing
these (non-essential) Rad6-interacting proteins, including those that
act with Rad6 in DNA damage repair (Rad18 and Rex4) and the N-end
rule-dependent protein degradation pathway (Ubr1 and Ubr2),
are involved in methylation of histone H3 Lys-4 (Fig. 3C).
This indicates that Rad6 functions in the regulation of gene expression
by controlling methylation of histone H3 independently of the above proteins.
To define the biochemical characteristics of Rad6 protein, we used
Rad6-specific polyclonal antibody to determine whether Rad6
exists in a large macromolecular complex. Our analysis suggests that at
least a portion of Rad6 protein is found in a large complex in yeast
extracts (Fig. 3D). Perhaps this complex includes an E3
ligase required for the recognition of histone H2B as specific substrate.
Our understanding of the role of the Trx class of proteins in
regulation of gene expression and development is
rudimentary. The Set1 protein of yeast is
similar to the Drosophila and human trithorax proteins (Trx
and MLL, respectively). The Trx protein may function as a DNA-binding
protein and appears to be a regulator of gene expression. Mutations
affecting MLL, the human homologue of Trx, result in the development of
hematological malignancies. Our molecular and biochemical
characterization of the Set1-containing protein complex we call COMPASS
is a first step toward understanding the function of SET
domain-containing proteins in regulation of gene expression. We and
others have now provided evidence that COMPASS is a histone
methyltransferase that catalyzes methylation of Lys-4 of histone H3
(4-7, 9).

Fig. 4.
Model of the role of Rad6 and COMPASS in
regulating chromatin structure and gene silencing. Histone H2B
within the active region of chromosomal DNA is recognized by the Rad6
protein complex and ubiquitinated on its lysine 123. This
ubiquitination of histone H2B serves as a direct or indirect
recognition signal and/or activation signal for COMPASS, which
catalyzes methylation of lysine 4 of histone H3 and results in
silencing of that region of chromosomal DNA. Ub,
ubiquitination; CH3, methylation.

Our analysis of ~4800 mutant strains of the yeast S. cerevisiae for a defect in histone H3 Lys-4 methylation resulted
in the discovery of the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Rad6 as a protein required for this process (Fig. 4). We have shown that lysine 123 of
histone H2B, which is ubiquitinated by Rad6 (24), is essential for the
methylation of histone H3 by COMPASS, which leads to silencing of genes
located near telomeres. Our results presented here (Fig. 4) suggest
that histone H2B in nucleosomes in "active" regions of chromatin is
recognized by the Rad6 complex and ubiquitinated on Lys-123. The
ubiquitination of histone H2B provides a signal for either direct or
indirect recruitment and/or activation of COMPASS. COMPASS can then
catalyze the methylation of lysine 4 of histone H3, which leads to
silencing of that region of chromosomal DNA (5, 6). An important,
unanswered question is whether ubiquitination and/or methylation of
histones is limited to certain (silent) regions of chromosomes or
whether these modifications occur throughout chromosomes.
Ubiquitination has recently been demonstrated to be involved in the
regulation of gene expression in eukaryotic cells (25). Although the
work presented here cannot at this time rule out a role for proteasomes
in this process, our results suggest a mechanism by which
ubiquitination of histone H2B can control transcription by regulation
of methylation on histone H3 via COMPASS.
