The histone H3K9 methyltransferase SUV39H links SIRT1 repression to myocardial infarction
Myocardial infarction (MI) dampens heart function and poses a great health risk. The class III deacetylase sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is known to confer cardioprotection. SIRT1 expression is downregulated in the heart by a number of stress stimuli that collectively drive the pathogenesis of MI, although the underlying mechanism remains largely obscure. Here we show that in primary rat neonatal ventricul...
متن کاملHistone H3K9 methyltransferase G9a represses PPARγ expression and adipogenesis.
PPARγ promotes adipogenesis while Wnt proteins inhibit adipogenesis. However, the mechanisms that control expression of these positive and negative master regulators of adipogenesis remain incompletely understood. By genome-wide histone methylation profiling in preadipocytes, we find that among gene loci encoding adipogenesis regulators, histone methyltransferase (HMT) G9a-mediated repressive e...
متن کاملTranscriptional repression of ANGPT1 by histone H3K9 demethylase KDM3B
Here we report that the H3K9 demethylase KDM3B represses transcription of the angiogenesis regulatory gene, ANGPT1. Negative regulation of ANGPT1 by KDM3B is independent of its Jumonji (JmjC) domain-mediated H3K9 demethylase activity. We demonstrate that KDM3B downregulates ANGPT1 via interaction with SMRT, and suggest that the repressor complex is formed at the promoter area of ANGPT1. Using M...
متن کاملH3K9 histone methyltransferase, KMT1E/SETDB1, cooperates with the SMAD2/3 pathway to suppress lung cancer metastasis.
Aberrant histone methylation is a frequent event during tumor development and progression. KMT1E (also known as SETDB1) is a histone H3K9 methyltransferase that contributes to epigenetic silencing of both oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes in cancer cells. In this report, we demonstrate that KMT1E acts as a metastasis suppressor that is strongly downregulated in highly metastatic lung cancer ...
متن کاملA Suv39h-dependent mechanism for silencing S-phase genes in differentiating but not in cycling cells.
The Rb/E2F complex represses S-phase genes both in cycling cells and in cells that have permanently exited from the cell cycle and entered a terminal differentiation pathway. Here we show that S-phase gene repression, which involves histone-modifying enzymes, occurs through distinct mechanisms in these two situations. We used chromatin immunoprecipitation to show that methylation of histone H3 ...
