ARCHIVES OF INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2024; 116:e22136. [PMID: 39016052 DOI: 10.1002/arch.22136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 06/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/18/2024]
Abstract
H2A.Z, the most evolutionarily conserved variant of histone H2A, plays a pivotal role in chromatin remodeling and contributes significantly to gene transcription and genome stability. However, the role of H2A.Z in the silkworm (Bombyx mori) remains unclear. In this study, we cloned the BmH2A.Z from B. mori. The open reading frame of BmH2A.Z is 390 bp, encoding 129 amino acids, with a confirmed molecular weight of 13.4 kDa through prokaryotic expression analysis. Sequence analysis revealed that BmH2A.Z has a conserved H2A.Z domain and is closely related to the systemic evolution of other known H2A.Zs. The expression profile of BmH2A.Z at various developmental stages of the B. mori exhibited the highest expression level in the 1st instar, followed by the grain stage and the 2nd instar, and the lowest expression level in the moth. The highest transcript level of BmH2A.Z was observed in the head, with relatively lower levels detected in the blood than in the other tissues under consideration. In addition, the upregulation of BmH2A.Z resulted in the amplified expression of B. mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) genes, thus facilitating the proliferation of BmNPV. This study establishes a foundation for investigating the role of BmH2A.Z in B. mori and its participation in virus-host interactions.

Yu X, Li S. Specific regulation of epigenome landscape by metabolic enzymes and metabolites. Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc 2024; 99:878-900.

Abstract
Metabolism includes anabolism and catabolism, which play an essential role in many biological processes. Chromatin modifications are post-translational modifications of histones and nucleic acids that play important roles in regulating chromatin-associated processes such as gene transcription. There is a tight connection between metabolism and chromatin modifications. Many metabolic enzymes and metabolites coordinate cellular activities with alterations in nutrient availability by regulating gene expression through epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation and histone modifications. The dysregulation of gene expression by metabolism and epigenetic modifications may lead to diseases such as diabetes and cancer. Recent studies reveal that metabolic enzymes and metabolites specifically regulate chromatin modifications, including modification types, modification residues and chromatin regions. This specific regulation has been implicated in the development of human diseases, yet the underlying mechanisms are only beginning to be uncovered. In this review, we summarise recent studies of the molecular mechanisms underlying the metabolic regulation of histone and DNA modifications and discuss how they contribute to pathogenesis. We also describe recent developments in technologies used to address the key questions in this field. We hope this will inspire further in-depth investigations of the specific regulatory mechanisms involved, and most importantly will shed lights on the development of more effective disease therapies.

Nobiletin targets SREBP1/ACLY to induce autophagy-dependent cell death of gastric cancer cells through PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 128:155360. [PMID: 38547624 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155360] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Autophagy could sense metabolic conditions and safeguard cells against nutrient deprivation, ultimately supporting the survival of cancer cells. Nobiletin (NOB) is a kind of bioactive component of the traditional Chinese medicine Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium and has been proven to induce GC cell death by reducing de novo fatty acid synthesis in our previous study. Nevertheless, the precise mechanisms by which NOB induces cell death in GC cells still need further elucidation. OBJECTIVES To examine the mechanism by which NOB inhibits gastric cancer progression through the regulation of autophagy under the condition of lipid metabolism inhibition. METHODS/ STUDY DESIGN Proliferation was detected by the CCK-8 assay. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to examine signaling pathway changes. Electron microscopy and mRFP-GFP-LC3 lentiviral transfection were performed to observe autophagy in vitro. Western blot, plasmid transfection, immunofluorescence staining, and CUT & Tag-qPCR techniques were utilized to explore the mechanisms by which NOB affects GC cells. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to predict the binding mode of NOB and SREBP1. CETSA was adopted to verify the predicted of binding model. A patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model was employed to verify the therapeutic efficacy of NOB in vivo. RESULTS We conducted functional studies and discovered that NOB inhibited the protective effect of autophagy via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR axis in GC cells. Based on previous research, we found that the overexpression of ACLY abrogated the NOB-induced autophagy-dependent cell death. In silico analysis predicted the formation of a stable complex between NOB and SREBP1. In vitro assays confirmed that NOB treatment increased the thermal stability of SREBP1 at the same temperature conditions. Moreover, CUT&TAG-qPCR analysis revealed that NOB could inhibit SREBP1 binding to the ACLY promoter. In the PDX model, NOB suppressed tumor growth, causing SREBP1 nuclear translocation inhibition, PI3K/Akt/mTOR inactivation, and autophagy-dependent cell death. CONCLUSION NOB demonstrated the ability to directly bind to SREBP1, inhibiting its nuclear translocation and binding to the ACLY promoter, thereby inducing autophagy-dependent cell death via PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway.

Abstract
Chromatin remodelers are important in maintaining the dynamic chromatin state in eukaryotic cells, which is essential for epigenetic regulation. Among the remodelers, the multi-subunits complex INO80 plays crucial roles in transcriptional regulation. However, current knowledge of chromatin regulation of the core subunit Ino80 on stress adaptation remains mysterious. Here we revealed that overexpressing the chromatin remodeler Ino80 elevated tolerance to multiple stresses in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Analyses of differential chromatin accessibility and global transcription levels revealed an enrichment of genes involved in NCR (nitrogen catabolite repression) under acetic acid stress. We demonstrated that Ino80 overexpression reduced the histone H3 occupancy in the promoter region of the glutamate dehydrogenase gene GDH2 and the allantoinase gene DAL1. Consistently, the decreased occupancy of nucleosome was revealed in the Ino80-inactivation mutant. Further analyses showed that Ino80 was recruited to the specific DNA locus in the promoter region of GDH2. Consistently, Ino80 overexpression facilitated the utilization of non-preferred nitrogen source to enhance ethanol yield under prolonged acetic acid stress. These results demonstrate that Ino80 plays a crucial role in coordinating carbon and nitrogen metabolism during stress adaptation.

Abstract
Infections caused by acute respiratory viruses induce a systemic innate immune response, which can be measured by the increased levels of expression of inflammatory genes in immune cells. There is growing evidence that these acute viral infections, alongside transient transcriptomic responses, induce epigenetic remodeling as part of the immune response, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, which might persist after the infection is cleared. In this article, we first review the primary mechanisms of epigenetic remodeling in the context of innate immunity and inflammation, which are crucial for the regulation of the immune response to viral infections. Next, we delve into the existing knowledge concerning the impact of respiratory virus infections on the epigenome, focusing on Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), Influenza A Virus (IAV), and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). Finally, we offer perspectives on the potential consequences of virus-induced epigenetic remodeling and open questions in the field that are currently under investigation.

Abstract
Autophagy is a catabolic process to maintain homeostasis, and involved in cell differentiation and development. Autophagy is tightly regulated in response to nutrient availability but the underlying mechanism is not completely understood. Recently, we identified the chromatin remodeling complex INO80 (inositol-requiring mutant 80) and histone variant H2A.Z as new autophagy regulators and uncover how histone deacetylase Rpd3L (reduced potassium dependency 3 large) complex represses autophagy by deacetylating Ino80 and H2A.Z. In particular, Rpd3L complex deacetylates Ino80 at lysine 929, which protects Ino80 from being degraded by autophagy. The stabilized Ino80 then evicts H2A.Z from autophagy-related (ATG) genes, leading to their transcriptional repression. In parallel, Rpd3L complex also deacetylates H2A.Z, which further reduces its association with ATG gene promoters and repress ATG gene transcription. Under nutrient-rich conditions, Rpd3L-mediated deacetylation of Ino80 K929 and H2A.Z is enhanced by the TORC1 complex (target of rapamycin complex 1). Under nitrogen-starvation condition, TORC1 is inactivated, leading to reduced activity of Rpd3L complex and increased acetylation of Ino80 and H2A.Z, which in turn induce the transcription of ATG genes. These results reveal a critical role of chromatin remodelers and histone variants in regulating autophagy in response to nutrient availability.Abbreviations: INO80: inositol-requiring mutant 80; Rpd3: reduced potassium dependency 3; H2A.Z: histone H2A variant; Rpd3L complex: Rpd3 large complex; H4K16: H4 lysine 16; H3R17: H3 arginine 17; H3T11: H3 threonine 11; TORC1 complex: target of rapamycin complex 1; ATG: autophagy-related; SWI/SNF: switch/sucrose non-fermentable; SWR1: Swi2/Snf2-related ATPase complex; RSC: remodel the structure of chromatin; ISWI: imitation switch; CHD1: chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 1; Arp8: actin-related protein 8; Sds3: suppressor of defective silencing 3; Ume6: unscheduled meiotic gene expression 6.

Abstract
H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) is a conserved histone modification catalyzed by histone methyltransferase Set1, and its dysregulation is associated with pathologies. Here, we show that Set1 is intrinsically unstable and elucidate how its protein levels are controlled within cell cycle and during gene transcription. Specifically, Set1 contains a destruction box (D-box) that is recognized by E3 ligase APC/CCdh1 and degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Cla4 phosphorylates serine 228 (S228) within Set1 D-box, which inhibits APC/CCdh1-mediated Set1 proteolysis. During gene transcription, PAF complex facilitates Cla4 to phosphorylate Set1-S228 and protect chromatin-bound Set1 from degradation. By modulating Set1 stability and its binding to chromatin, Cla4 and APC/CCdh1 control H3K4me3 levels, which then regulate gene transcription, cell cycle progression, and chronological aging. In addition, there are 141 proteins containing the D-box that can be potentially phosphorylated by Cla4 to prevent their degradation by APC/CCdh1. We addressed the long-standing question about how Set1 stability is controlled and uncovered a new mechanism to regulate protein stability.

Abstract
Macroautophagy/autophagy is an essential catabolic process for maintaining homeostasis and cell survival under stressful conditions. We previously characterized the metabolic transcription factor Stb5 as a negative modulator of autophagy through its regulation of genes involved in NADPH production. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating STB5 expression are not fully characterized. Here, we identify the yeast Pho23-Rpd3 histone deacetylase complex as a transcriptional regulator of STB5 . Our work provides insight into the mechanisms modulating the metabolic transcription factor Stb5 and expands on the repertoire of genes targeted by the Pho23-Rpd3 complex.
