Summary |
Histone lysine-specfic methyltransferase 2 (KMT2A-D) proteins, alternatively called mixed lineage leukaemia (MLL1-4) proteins, mediate positive transcriptional memory. As the catalytic subunits of human COMPASS-like complexes, they methylate H3K4 at promoters and enhancers. KMT2A-D contain understudied highly conserved triplets and a quartet of plant homeodomains (PHDs). Here, we show that all clustered PHDs localise to the well-defined loci of H3K4me3 and H3 acetylation-rich active promoters and enhancers. Surprisingly, we observe little difference in binding pattern between PHDs from promoter-specific KMT2A-B and enhancer-specific KMT2C-D. Fusion of the KMT2A CXXC domain to the PHDs drastically enhances their preference for promoters over enhancers. Hence, the presence of CXXC domains in KMT2A-B, but not KMT2C-D, may explain the promoter/enhancer preferences of the full-length proteins. Importantly, targets of PHDs overlap with KMT2A targets and are enriched in genes involved in the cancer pathways. We also observe that PHDs of KMT2A-D are mutated in cancer, especially within conserved folding motifs (Cys4HisCys2Cys/His), which cause a domain loss-of-function. Taken together, our data suggests that PHDs of KMT2A-D guide the full-length proteins to active promoters and enhancers, and thus play a role in positive transcriptional memory.

Overall design |
GreenCUT&RUN experiment in 2 replicates of six different stable HeLa cell lines, expresing NLS-EYFP-tagged clustered PHD domains. Control sample for MACS2 peak calling was HeLa cells from correspoding experiment. In addition, 2 replicates of CUT&RUN in HeLa S3 cells with antibodies against three COMPASS complex subunits and eleven various histone marks. Control sample for MACS2 peak calling was IgG from corresponding experiment.
Please note that each merged processed data was generated from both replicates and is linked to the corresponding rep1 sample records -or- as Series supplementary files
