p300/CBP-associated factor histone acetyltransferase processing of a peptide substrate. Kinetic analysis of the catalytic mechanism.

چکیده
p300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF) is a histone acetyltransferase that plays an important role in the remodeling of chromatin and the regulation of gene expression. It has been shown to catalyze preferentially acetylation of the epsilon-amino group of lysine 14 in histone H3. In this study, the kinetic mechanism of PCAF was evaluated with a 20-amino acid peptide substrate derived from the amino terminus of histone H3 (H3-20) and recombinant bacterially expressed PCAF catalytic domain (PCAF(cat)). The enzymologic behavior of full-length PCAF and PCAF(cat) were shown to be similar. PCAF-catalyzed acetylation of the substrate H3-20 was shown to be specific for Lys-14, analogous to its behavior with the full-length histone H3 protein. Two-substrate kinetic analysis displayed an intersecting line pattern, consistent with a ternary complex mechanism for PCAF. The dead-end inhibitor analog desulfo-CoA was competitive versus acetyl-CoA and noncompetitive versus H3-20. The dead-end analog inhibitor H3-20 K14A was competitive versus H3-20 and uncompetitive versus acetyl-CoA. The potent bisubstrate analog inhibitor H3-CoA-20 was competitive versus acetyl-CoA and noncompetitive versus H3-20. Taken together, these inhibition patterns support an ordered BiBi kinetic mechanism for PCAF in which acetyl-CoA binding precedes H3-20 binding. Viscosity experiments suggest that diffusional release of product is not rate-determining for PCAF catalysis. These results provide a mechanistic framework for understanding the detailed catalytic behavior of an important subset of the histone acetyltransferases and have significant implications for molecular regulation of and inhibitor design for these enzymes.

Acetyltransferase p300/CBP Associated Factor (PCAF) Regulates Crosstalk-Dependent Acetylation of Histone H3 by Distal Site Recognition
Epigenetic regulation is directed, in part, by the correlated placement of histone post-translational modifications, but the mechanisms controlling correlated modifications are incompletely understood. Correlations arise from crosstalk among modifications and are frequently attributed to protein-protein interactions that recruit enzymes to existing histone modifications. Here we report the use ...
متن کاملDifferences in Specificity and Selectivity Between CBP and p300 Acetylation of Histone H3 and H3/H4
Although p300 and CBP lysine acetyltransferases are often treated interchangeably, the inability of one enzyme to compensate for the loss of the other suggests unique roles for each. As these deficiencies coincide with aberrant levels of histone acetylation, we hypothesized that the key difference between p300 and CBP activity is differences in their specificity/selectivity for lysines within t...
متن کاملThe Transcriptional Coactivators p300 and CBP Are Histone Acetyltransferases
p300/CBP is a transcriptional adaptor that integrates signals from many sequence-specific activators via direct interactions. Various cellular and viral factors target p300/CBP to modulate transcription and/or cell cycle progression. One such factor, the cellular p300/CBP associated factor (PCAF), possesses intrinsic histone acetyltransferase activity. Here, we demonstrate that p300/CBP is not ...

Structure of the p300 Histone Acetyltransferase Bound to Acetyl-Coenzyme A and Its Analogues
The p300 and CBP transcriptional coactivator paralogs (p300/CBP) regulate a variety of different cellular pathways, in part, by acetylating histones and more than 70 non-histone protein substrates. Mutation, chromosomal translocation, or other aberrant activities of p300/CBP are linked to many different diseases, including cancer. Because of its pleiotropic biological roles and connection to di...
