哺乳類のDNAメチル化は細胞の遺伝子発現パターンを定義し、細胞形質を決めるエピジェネティックな情報です。個体の生涯を通して細胞が形質を保ったまま増殖するためには、細胞が獲得したDNAメチル化の情報が次世代の細胞に正確に受け継がれる必要があります。これをDNA維持メチル化と言います。DNA維持メチル化の破綻は、異常な遺伝子発現やゲノム不安定化をもたらし、がんや精神疾患など様々な疾病との関連が報告されています。

DNA維持メチル化ではDNAメチル化酵素DNMT1と、その呼び込み因子UHRF1の2つタンパク質が必須因子として共同的に働きます。UHRF1とDNMT1を中心に、DNA維持メチル化を制御する生体分子複合体をクライオ電子顕微鏡単粒子解析、X線結晶構造解析, X線溶液散乱, NMR, 高速AFMを用いた複合的な構造生命科学研究で解析し、DNA維持メチル化の分子機構の全容解明を目指します。また、がんの薬剤開発に向けたDNAメチル化を制御する薬剤の探索と開発によりエピゲノム創薬を目指しています。

    Mutations of the SNF2 family ATPase HELLS and its activator CDCA7 cause immunodeficiency, centromeric instability, and facial anomalies syndrome, characterized by DNA hypomethylation at heterochromatin. It remains unclear why CDCA7-HELLS is the sole nucleosome remodeling complex whose deficiency abrogates the maintenance of DNA methylation. We here identify the unique zinc-finger domain of CDCA7 as an evolutionarily conserved hemimethylation-sensing zinc finger (HMZF) domain. Cryo-electron microscopy structural analysis of the CDCA7-nucleosome complex reveals that the HMZF domain can recognize hemimethylated CpG in the outward-facing DNA major groove within the nucleosome core particle, whereas UHRF1, the critical activator of the maintenance methyltransferase DNMT1, cannot. CDCA7 recruits HELLS to hemimethylated chromatin and facilitates UHRF1-mediated H3 ubiquitylation associated with replication-uncoupled maintenance DNA methylation. We propose that the CDCA7-HELLS nucleosome remodeling complex assists the maintenance of DNA methylation on chromatin by sensing hemimethylated CpG that is otherwise inaccessible to UHRF1 and DNMT1.

    Stable inheritance of DNA methylation is critical for maintaining differentiated phenotypes in multicellular organisms. We have recently identified dual mono-ubiquitylation of histone H3 (H3Ub2) by UHRF1 as an essential mechanism to recruit DNMT1 to chromatin. Here, we show that PCNA-associated factor 15 (PAF15) undergoes UHRF1-dependent dual mono-ubiquitylation (PAF15Ub2) on chromatin in a DNA replication-coupled manner. This event will, in turn, recruit DNMT1. During early S-phase, UHRF1 preferentially ubiquitylates PAF15, whereas H3Ub2 predominates during late S-phase. H3Ub2 is enhanced under PAF15 compromised conditions, suggesting that H3Ub2 serves as a backup for PAF15Ub2. In mouse ES cells, loss of PAF15Ub2 results in DNA hypomethylation at early replicating domains. Together, our results suggest that there are two distinct mechanisms underlying replication timing-dependent recruitment of DNMT1 through PAF15Ub2 and H3Ub2, both of which are prerequisite for high fidelity DNA methylation inheritance.

    The protein UHRF1 is crucial for DNA methylation maintenance. The tandem Tudor domain (TTD) of UHRF1 binds histone H3K9me2/3 with micromolar affinity, as well as unmethylated linker regions within UHRF1 itself, causing auto-inhibition. Recently, we showed that a methylated histone-like region of DNA ligase 1 (LIG1K126me2/me3) binds the UHRF1 TTD with nanomolar affinity, permitting UHRF1 recruitment to chromatin. Here we report the crystal structure of the UHRF1 TTD bound to a LIG1K126me3 peptide. The data explain the basis for the high TTD-binding affinity of LIG1K126me3 and reveal that the interaction may be regulated by phosphorylation. Binding of LIG1K126me3 switches the overall structure of UHRF1 from a closed to a flexible conformation, suggesting that auto-inhibition is relieved. Our results provide structural insight into how UHRF1 performs its key function in epigenetic maintenance.

    The proper location and timing of Dnmt1 activation are essential for DNA methylation maintenance. We demonstrate here that Dnmt1 utilizes two-monoubiquitylated histone H3 as a unique ubiquitin mark for its recruitment to and activation at DNA methylation sites. The crystal structure of the replication foci targeting sequence (RFTS) of Dnmt1 in complex with H3-K18Ub/23Ub reveals striking differences to the known ubiquitin-recognition structures. The two ubiquitins are simultaneously bound to the RFTS with a combination of canonical hydrophobic and atypical hydrophilic interactions. The C-lobe of RFTS, together with the K23Ub surface, also recognizes the N-terminal tail of H3. The binding of H3K18Ub/23Ub results in spatial rearrangement of two lobes in the RFTS, suggesting the opening of its active site. Actually, incubation of Dnmt1 with H3K18Ub/23Ub increases its catalytic activity in vitro. Our results therefore shed light on the essential role of a unique ubiquitin-binding module in DNA methylation maintenance.

    DNA methylation is an essential epigenetic mark in mammals that has to be re-established after each round of DNA replication. The protein UHRF1 is essential for this process; it has been proposed that the protein targets newly replicated DNA by cooperatively binding hemi-methylated DNA and H3K9me2/3, but this model leaves a number of questions unanswered. Here, we present evidence for a direct recruitment of UHRF1 by the replication machinery via DNA ligase 1 (LIG1). A histone H3K9-like mimic within LIG1 is methylated by G9a and GLP and, compared with H3K9me2/3, more avidly binds UHRF1. Interaction with methylated LIG1 promotes the recruitment of UHRF1 to DNA replication sites and is required for DNA methylation maintenance. These results further elucidate the function of UHRF1, identify a non-histone target of G9a and GLP, and provide an example of a histone mimic that coordinates DNA replication and DNA methylation maintenance.

    Faithful propagation of DNA methylation patterns during DNA replication is critical for maintaining cellular phenotypes of individual differentiated cells(1-5). Although it is well established that Uhrf1 (ubiquitin-like with PHD and ring finger domains 1; also known as Np95 and ICBP90) specifically binds to hemi-methylated DNA through its SRA (SET and RING finger associated) domain and has an essential role in maintenance of DNA methylation by recruiting Dnmt1 to hemi-methylated DNA sites(6-10), the mechanism by which Uhrf1 coordinates the maintenance of DNA methylation and DNA replication is largely unknown. Here we show that Uhrf1-dependent histone H3 ubiquitylation has a prerequisite role in the maintenance DNA methylation. Using Xenopus egg extracts, we successfully reproduce maintenance DNA methylation in vitro. Dnmt1 depletion results in a marked accumulation of Uhrf1-dependent ubiquitylation of histone H3 at lysine 23. Dnmt1 preferentially associates with ubiquitylated H3 in vitro though a region previously identified as a replication foci targeting sequence(11). The RING finger mutant of Uhrf1 fails to recruit Dnmt1 to DNA replication sites and maintain DNA methylation in mammalian cultured cells. Our findings represent the first evidence, to our knowledge, of the mechanistic link between DNA methylation and DNA replication through histone H3 ubiquitylation.

    Multiple covalent modifications on a histone tail are often recognized by linked histone reader modules. UHRF1 [ubiquitin-like, containing plant homeodomain (PHD) and really interesting new gene (RING) finger domains 1], an essential factor for maintenance of DNA methylation, contains linked two-histone reader modules, a tandem Tudor domain and a PHD finger, tethered by a 17-aa linker, and has been implicated to link histone modifications and DNA methylation. Here, we present the crystal structure of the linked histone reader modules of UHRF1 in complex with the amino-terminal tail of histone H3. Our structural and biochemical data provide the basis for combinatorial readout of unmodified Arg-2 (H3-R2) and methylated Lys-9 (H3-K9) by the tandem tudor domain and the PHD finger. The structure reveals that the intermodule linker plays an essential role in the formation of a histone H3-binding hole between the reader modules by making extended contacts with the tandem tudor domain. The histone H3 tail fits into the hole by adopting a compact fold harboring a central helix, which allows both of the reader modules to simultaneously recognize the modification states at H3-R2 and H3-K9. Our data also suggest that phosphorylation of a linker residue can modulate the relative position of the reader modules, thereby altering the histone H3-binding mode. This finding implies that the linker region plays a role as a functional switch of UHRF1 involved in multiple regulatory pathways such as maintenance of DNA methylation and transcriptional repression.

    p62/SQSTM1/A170 is a multimodular protein that is found in ubiquitin-positive inclusions associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Recent findings indicate that p62 mediates the interaction between ubiquitinated proteins and autophagosomes, leading these proteins to be degraded via the autophagy-lysosomal pathway. This ubiquitin-mediated selective autophagy is thought to begin with recognition of the ubiquitinated proteins by the C-terminal ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain of p62. We present here the crystal structure of the UBA domain of mouse p62 and the solution structure of its ubiquitin-bound form. The p62 UBA domain adopts a novel dimeric structure in crystals, which is distinctive from those of other UBA domains. NMR analyses reveal that in solution the domain exists in equilibrium between the dimer and monomer forms, and binding ubiquitin shifts the equilibrium toward the monomer to form a 1: 1 complex between the UBA domain and ubiquitin. The dimer-to-monomer transition is associated with a structural change of the very C-terminal end of the p62 UBA domain, although the UBA fold itself is essentially maintained. Our data illustrate that dimerization and ubiquitin binding of the p62 UBA domain are incompatible with each other. These observations reveal an autoinhibitory mechanism in the p62 UBA domain and suggest that autoinhibition plays a role in the function of p62.

    DNA methylation of CpG dinucleotides is an important epigenetic modification of mammalian genomes and is essential for the regulation of chromatin structure, of gene expression and of genome stability(1,2). Differences in DNA methylation patterns underlie a wide range of biological processes, such as genomic imprinting, inactivation of the X chromosome, embryogenesis, and carcinogenesis(3-6). Inheritance of the epigenetic methylation pattern is mediated by the enzyme DNA methyltransferase 1 ( Dnmt1), which methylates newly synthesized CpG sequences during DNA replication, depending on the methylation status of the template strands(7,8). The protein UHRF1 ( also known as Np95 and ICBP90) recognizes hemi- methylation sites via a SET and RING- associated ( SRA) domain and directs Dnmt1 to these sites(9-11). Here we report the crystal structures of the SRA domain in free and hemi- methylated DNA- bound states. The SRA domain folds into a globular structure with a basic concave surface formed by highly conserved residues. Binding of DNA to the concave surface causes a loop and an amino- terminal tail of the SRA domain to fold into DNA interfaces at the major and minor grooves of the methylation site. In contrast to fully methylated CpG sites recognized by the methyl- CpG- binding domain(12,13), the methylcytosine base at the hemi- methylated site is flipped out of the DNA helix in the SRA - DNA complex and fits tightly into a protein pocket on the concave surface. The complex structure suggests that the successive flip out of the pre- existing methylated cytosine and the target cytosine to be methylated is associated with the coordinated transfer of the hemi- methylated CpG site from UHRF1 to Dnmt1.

    Histone arginine methylation is a posttranslational modification linked to the regulation of gene transcription. Unlike other posttranslational modifications, methylation has generally been regarded as stable, and enzymes that demethylate histone arginine residues have not been identified. However, it has recently been shown that human peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4), a Ca2+-dependent enzyme previously known to convert arginine residues to citrulline in histones, can also convert monomethylated arginine residues to citrulline both in vivo and in vitro. Citrullination of histone arginine residues by the enzyme antagonizes methylation by histone arginine methyltransferases and is thus a novel posttranslational modification that regulates the level of histone arginine methylation and gene activity. Here we present the crystal structures of a Ca2+-bound PAD4 mutant in complex with three histone N-terminal peptides, each consisting of 10 amino acid residues that include one target arginine residue for the enzyme (H3/Arg-8, H3/Arg-17, and H4/Arg-3). To each histone N-terminal peptide, the enzyme induces a beta-turn-like bent conformation composed of five successive residues at the molecular surface near the active site cleft. The remaining five residues are highly disordered. The enzyme recognizes each peptide through backbone atoms of the peptide with a possible consensus recognition motif. The sequence specificity of the peptide recognized by this enzyme is thought to be fairly broad. These observations provide structural insights into target protein recognition by histone modification enzymes and illustrate how PAD4 can target multiple arginine sites in the histone N-terminal tails.

    Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is a Ca2+-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of protein arginine residues to citrulline. Its gene is a susceptibility locus for rheumatoid arthritis. Here we present the crystal structure of Ca2+-free wild-type PAD4, which shows that the polypeptide chain adopts an elongated fold in which the N-terminal domain forms two immunoglobulin-like subdomains, and the C-terminal domain forms an alpha/beta propeller structure. Five Ca2+-binding sites, none of which adopt an EF-hand motif, were identified in the structure of a Ca2+-bound inactive mutant with and without bound substrate. These structural data indicate that Ca2+ binding induces conformational changes that generate the active site cleft. Our findings identify a novel mechanism for enzyme activation by Ca2+ ions, and are important for understanding the mechanism of protein citrullination and for developing PAD-inhibiting drugs for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

    The heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) family recognizes lysine 9-methylated histone H3 (H3K9me) and recruits other transacting factors to establish higher order chromatin structures. In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe (S. pombe), two HP1 family proteins, Swi6 and Chp2, play distinct roles in recruiting transacting factors: Swi6 primarily recruits Epe1, a Jumonji C domain-containing protein involved in histone H3K9 demethylation, whereas Chp2 recruits Mit1, a component of the Snf2/Hdac Repressive Complex. However, detailed mechanisms of how multiple HP1 family proteins and their respective interactors work cooperatively or exclusively to form higher order chromatin structures remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the interactions between Swi6 and Epe1. We found that Swi6 interacts with Epe1 through its chromoshadow domain, and identified a unique motif, named the FVI motif, in Epe1 involved in this interaction through detailed mapping of the region. Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) tethering assays showed that the FVI motif is sufficient to recruit ectopically expressed EGFP to heterochromatic regions, and mutational analyses revealed that conserved hydrophobic residues in this motif are essential for proper targeting. Structural simulations further supported the importance of these residues in Swi6 binding. Interestingly, Mit1 containing the Epe1 FVI motif was recruited to the heterochromatic regions by Swi6 but not by Chp2. Cells expressing mutant Mit1 maintained heterochromatic silencing even in chp2∆ cells, suggesting that Chp2 is not required for heterochromatin formation when Mit1 is recruited by Swi6. These findings highlight distinct HP1-binding motifs in interactors, contributing to functional divergence among HP1 family proteins.

    DNA methylation maintenance is essential for cell fate inheritance. In differentiated cells, this involves orchestrated actions of DNMT1 and UHRF1. In mice, the high-affinity binding of DPPA3 to the UHRF1 PHD finger regulates UHRF1 chromatin dissociation and cytosolic localization, which is required for oocyte maturation and early embryo development. However, the human DPPA3 ortholog functions during these stages remain unclear. Here, we report the structural basis for human DPPA3 binding to the UHRF1 PHD finger. The conserved human DPPA3 85VRT87 motif binds to the acidic surface of UHRF1 PHD finger, whereas mouse DPPA3 binding additionally utilizes two unique α-helices. The binding affinity of human DPPA3 for the UHRF1 PHD finger was weaker than that of mouse DPPA3. Consequently, human DPPA3, unlike mouse DPPA3, failed to inhibit UHRF1 chromatin binding and DNA remethylation in Xenopus egg extracts effectively. Our data provide novel insights into the distinct function and structure of human DPPA3.

    Mutations of the SNF2 family ATPase HELLS and its activator CDCA7 cause immunodeficiency-centromeric instability-facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome, characterized by hypomethylation at heterochromatin. The unique zinc-finger domain, zf-4CXXC_R1, of CDCA7 is widely conserved across eukaryotes but is absent from species that lack HELLS and DNA methyltransferases, implying its specialized relation with methylated DNA. Here we demonstrate that zf-4CXXC_R1 acts as a hemimethylated DNA sensor. The zf-4CXXC_R1 domain of CDCA7 selectively binds to DNA with a hemimethylated CpG, but not unmethylated or fully methylated CpG, and ICF disease mutations eliminated this binding. CDCA7 and HELLS interact via their N-terminal alpha helices, through which HELLS is recruited to hemimethylated DNA. While placement of a hemimethylated CpG within the nucleosome core particle can hinder its recognition by CDCA7, cryo-EM structure analysis of the CDCA7-nucleosome complex suggests that zf-4CXXC_R1 recognizes a hemimethylated CpG in the major groove at linker DNA. Our study provides insights into how the CDCA7-HELLS nucleosome remodeling complex uniquely assists maintenance DNA methylation.

    Abstract

    Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) is an evolutionarily conserved protein that plays a critical role in heterochromatin assembly. HP1 proteins share a basic structure consisting of an N-terminal chromodomain (CD) and a C-terminal chromoshadow domain (CSD) linked by a disordered hinge region. The CD recognizes histone H3 lysine 9 methylation, a hallmark of heterochromatin, while the CSD forms a dimer to recruit other chromosomal proteins. HP1 proteins have been shown to bind DNA or RNA primarily through the hinge region. However, how DNA or RNA binding contributes to their function remains elusive. Here, we focus on Chp2, one of the two HP1 proteins in fission yeast, and investigate how Chp2's DNA-binding ability contributes to its function. Similar to other HP1 proteins, the Chp2 hinge exhibits clear DNA-binding activity. Interestingly, the Chp2 CSD also shows robust DNA-binding activity. Mutational analysis revealed that basic residues in the Chp2 hinge and at the N-terminus of the CSD are essential for DNA binding, and the combined amino acid substitutions of these residues alter Chp2 stability, impair Chp2 heterochromatin localization and lead to a silencing defect. These results demonstrate that the cooperative DNA-binding activities of Chp2 play an important role in heterochromatin assembly in fission yeast.

    Infection of certain influenza viruses is triggered when its HA is cleaved by host cell proteases such as proprotein convertases and type II transmembrane serine proteases (TTSP). HA with a monobasic motif is cleaved by trypsin-like proteases, including TMPRSS2 and HAT, whereas the multibasic motif found in high pathogenicity avian influenza HA is cleaved by furin, PC5/6, or MSPL. MSPL belongs to the TMPRSS family and preferentially cleaves [R/K]-K-K-R↓ sequences. Here, we solved the crystal structure of the extracellular region of human MSPL in complex with an irreversible substrate-analog inhibitor. The structure revealed three domains clustered around the C-terminal α-helix of the SPD. The inhibitor structure and its putative model show that the P1-Arg inserts into the S1 pocket, whereas the P2-Lys and P4-Arg interacts with the Asp/Glu-rich 99-loop that is unique to MSPL. Based on the structure of MSPL, we also constructed a homology model of TMPRSS2, which is essential for the activation of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and infection. The model may provide the structural insight for the drug development for COVID-19.

    DNA methylation controls gene expression, and once established, DNA methylation patterns are faithfully copied during DNA replication by the maintenance DNA methyltransferase Dnmt1. In vivo, Dnmt1 interacts with Uhrf1, which recognizes hemimethylated CpGs. Recently, we reported that Uhrf1-catalyzed K18- and K23-ubiquitinated histone H3 binds to the N-terminal region (the replication focus targeting sequence, RFTS) of Dnmt1 to stimulate its methyltransferase activity. However, it is not yet fully understood how ubiquitinated histone H3 stimulates Dnmt1 activity. Here, we show that monoubiquitinated histone H3 stimulates Dnmt1 activity toward DNA with multiple hemimethylated CpGs but not toward DNA with only a single hemimethylated CpG, suggesting an influence of ubiquitination on the processivity of Dnmt1. The Dnmt1 activity stimulated by monoubiquitinated histone H3 was additively enhanced by the Uhrf1 SRA domain, which also binds to RFTS. Thus, Dnmt1 activity is regulated by catalysis (ubiquitination)-dependent and -independent functions of Uhrf1.

    DNA methylation in promoter regions represses gene expression and is copied over mitotic divisions by Dnmt1. Dnmt1 activity is regulated by its replication foci targeting sequence (RFTS) domain which masks the catalytic pocket. It has been shown that Dnmt1 activity on unmethylated DNA is inhibited in nucleosome cores. In the present study, we aimed to assess the effect of nuclesome formation on maintenance methylation at single CpG resolution. We show that Dnmt1 fully methylates naked linker DNA in dinucleosomes, whereas maintenance methylation was repressed at all CpG sites in nucleosome core particles. Deletion of RFTS partly released obstruction of Dnmt1 activity in core particles. Histone H3 tail peptides inhibited Dnmt1 in an RFTS-dependent manner and repression was modulated by acetylation or methylation. We propose a novel function of RFTS to regulate Dnmt1 activity in nucleosomes.

    Uhrf1-dependent histone H3 ubiquitylation plays a crucial role in the maintenance of DNA methylation via the recruitment of the DNA methyltransferase Dnmt1 to DNA methylation sites. However, the involvement of deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) targeting ubiquitylated histone H3 in the maintenance of DNA methylation is largely unknown. With the use of Xenopus egg extracts, we demonstrate here that Usp7, a ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase, forms a stable complex with Dnmt1 and is recruited to DNA methylation sites during DNA replication. Usp7 deubiquitylates ubiquitylated histone H3 in vitro. Inhibition of Usp7 activity or its depletion in egg extracts results in enhanced and extended binding of Dnmt1 to chromatin, suppressing DNA methylation. Depletion of Usp7 in HeLa cells causes enhanced histone H3 ubiquitylation and enlargement of Dnmt1 nuclear foci during DNA replication. Our results thus suggest that Usp7 is a key factor that regulates maintenance of DNA methylation.

    The cyanobacterial circadian-related protein, Pex, accumulates in the dark period of the diurnal light-dark cycle. After the diurnal cycle, an approximately 3 h advance in the phase of the circadian bioluminescence rhythm is observed in pex-deficient mutants, as compared with the wild type. However, it is unclear what type of photosensing mechanism regulates the accumulation and the phase change. In monochromatic light irradiation experiments, Pex accumulation was strongly repressed under blue light conditions; however, only small reductions in Pex accumulation were observed under red or green light conditions. After the diurnal cycle of 12 h of white fluorescent light and 12 h of blue light, the phase advance was repressed more than that of the cycle of 12 h red (or green) light. The phase advance also occurred after 16 h light/8 h dark cycles (long-day cycles) but did not occur after 8 h light/16 h dark cycles (short-day cycles). While Pex is a unique winged helix transcription factor harboring secondary structures (alpha 0 and alpha 4 helices), the importance of the structures is not understood. In in vivo experiments with site-directed mutations in the alpha 0 helix, the obtained mutants, in which Pex was missing the hydrophobic side chain at the 28th or 32nd amino acid residue, exhibited no phase delay after the light/dark cycle. In in vitro DNA binding assays, the mutant proteins showed no binding to the promoter region of the clock gene kaiA. From these results, we propose a molecular model which describes the phase delay in cyanobacteria.

    Ubiquitin is known to be one of the most soluble and stably folded intracellular proteins, but it is often found in inclusion bodies associated with various diseases including neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. To gain insight into this contradictory behaviour, we have examined the physicochemical properties of ubiquitin and its polymeric chains that lead to aggregate formation. We find that the folding stability of ubiquitin chains unexpectedly decreases with increasing chain length, resulting in the formation of amyloid-like fibrils. Furthermore, when expressed in cells, polyubiquitin chains covalently linked to EGFP also form aggregates depending on chain length. Notably, these aggregates are selectively degraded by autophagy. We propose a novel model in which the physical and chemical instability of polyubiquitin chains drives the formation of fibrils, which then serve as an initiation signal for autophagy.

    Interleukin (IL)-18 is a proinflammatory cytokine that belongs to the IL-1 family and plays an important role in inflammation. The uncontrolled release of this cytokine is associated with severe chronic inflammatory disease. IL-18 forms a signalling complex with the IL-18 receptor alpha (R alpha) and beta (R beta) chains at the plasma membrane, which induces multiple inflammatory cytokines. Here, we present a crystal structure of human IL-18 bound to the two receptor extracellular domains. Generally, the receptors' recognition mode for IL-18 is similar to IL-1 beta; however, certain notable differences were observed. The architecture of the IL-18 receptor second domain (D2) is unique among the other IL-1R family members, which presumably distinguishes them from the IL-1 receptors that exhibit a more promiscuous ligand recognition mode. The structures and associated biochemical and cellular data should aid in developing novel drugs to neutralize IL-18 activity.

    Interleukin-18 (IL-18), a pro-inflammatory cytokine belonging to the interleukin-1 (IL-1) family, is involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune/autoinflammatory and allergic diseases such as juvenile idiopathic arthritis and bronchial asthma. IL-18 forms a signalling complex with the IL-18 receptor alpha (IL-18R alpha) and beta (IL-18R beta) chains; however, the detailed activation mechanism remains unclear. Here, the IL-18-IL-18R alpha binary and IL-18-IL-18R alpha-IL-18R beta ternary complexes were purified and crystallized as well as IL-18 alone. An X-ray diffraction data set for IL-18 was collected to 2.33 angstrom resolution from a crystal belonging to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 68.15, b = 79.51, c = 73.46 angstrom, beta = 100.97 degrees.

    Interleukin (IL)-18 [1], a proinflammatory cytokine belonging to the IL-1 superfamily, plays important roles in both innate and adaptive immune system, which is involved in not only the function of host defense mechanism but also allergic reactions. IL-18 is secreted by various types of cells and strongly augments the production of interferon-γ. IL-18 is synthesized as a biologically inactive precursor (proIL-18), which is matured by the action of caspase-1 in the cell upon stimulation. The matured IL-18 is subsequently secreted extracellularly and binds to IL-18 receptor α (Rα) and IL-18 receptor β (Rβ) in a stepwise manner, forming the IL-18/Rα/Rβ ternary complex. The complex initiates the signaling that finally activates NF-κB via the MyD88 dependent pathway [2]. Here, we show the crystal structure of IL-18 (Fig a), the IL-18/Rα binary complex (Fig b) and the IL-18/Rα/Rβ signaling ternary complex (Fig c, d) at 2.33, 3.10 and 3.10 Å resolution, respectively. Overall, the recognition manner of IL-18 by the receptors was similar to that of IL-1β [3], although some remarkable differences such as the orientation of Ig-like domains of IL-18Rβ were revealed. We also demonstrate that carbohydrate chains on IL-18Rα contributes to the recognition of IL-18. Biochemical experiments based on the structure identify amino acid residues that are important in forming the ternary complex and the signal transduction. Our results not only show the common extracellular signaling architecture of IL-1 family cytokines but also unveil unique recognition mechanism of IL-18 with the detailed atomic structures. The structure of the signaling ternary complex of IL-18 would contribute to both understanding the pathogeneses of the IL-18 related diseases and designing new efficient therapeutic agents.

    Dnmt1 is responsible for the maintenance DNA methylation during replication to propagate methylation patterns to the next generation. The replication foci targeting sequence (RFTS), which plugs the catalytic pocket, is necessary for recruitment of Dnmt1 to the replication site. In the present study we found that the DNA methylation activity of Dnmt1 was DNA length-dependent and scarcely methylated 12-bp short hemi-methylated DNA. Contrarily, the RFTS-deleted Dnmt1 and Dnmt1 mutants that destroyed the hydrogen bonds between the RFTS and catalytic domain showed significant DNA methylation activity even toward 12-bp hemi-methylated DNA. The DNA methylation activity of the RFTS-deleted Dnmt1 toward 12-bp hemi-methylated DNA was strongly inhibited on the addition of RFTS, but to a lesser extent by Dnmt1 harboring the mutations that impair the hydrogen bond formation. The SRA domain of Uhrf1, which is a prerequisite factor for maintenance methylation and selectively binds to hemi-methylated DNA, stimulated the DNA methylation activity of Dnmt1. The SRA to Dnmt1 concentration ratio was the determinant for the maximum stimulation. In addition, a mutant SRA, which had lost the DNA binding activity but was able to bind to Dnmt1, stimulated the DNA methylation activity of Dnmt1. The results indicate that the DNA methylation activity of Dnmt1 was stimulated on the direct interaction of the SRA and Dnmt1. The SRA facilitated acceptance of the 12-bp fluorocytosine-containing DNA by the catalytic center. We propose that the SRA removes the RFTS plug from the catalytic pocket to facilitate DNA acceptance by the catalytic center.

    We developed novel fluorogenic probes for no-wash live-cell imaging of proteins fused to PYP-tag, which is a small protein tag recently reported by our group. Through the design of a new PYP-tag ligand, specific intracellular protein labeling with rapid kinetics and fluorogenic response was accomplished. The probes crossed the cell membrane, and cytosolic and nuclear localizations of PYP-tagged proteins without cell washing were visualized within a 6-min reaction time. The fluorogenic response was due to the environmental effect of fluorophore upon binding to PYP-tag. Furthermore, the PYP-tag-based method was applied to the imaging of methyl-CpG-binding domain localization. This rapid protein-labeling system combined with the small protein tag and designed fluorogenic probes offers a powerful method to study the localization, movement, and function of cellular proteins. © 2013 American Chemical Society.

    The methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) protein MBD4 participates in DNA repair as a glycosylase that excises mismatched thymine bases in CpG sites and also functions in transcriptional repression. Unlike other MBD proteins, MBD4 recognizes not only methylated CpG dinucleotides ((5m)CG/(5m)CG) but also T/G mismatched sites generated by spontaneous deamination of 5-methylcytosine ((5m)CG/TG). The glycosylase activity of MBD4 is also implicated in active DNA demethylation initiated by the deaminase-catalyzed conversion of 5-methylcytosine to thymine. Here, we report the crystal structures of the MBD of MBD4(MBDMBD4) complexed with (5m)CG/(5m)CG and (5m)CG/TG. The crystal structures show that the DNA interface of MBD4 has flexible structural features and harbors an extensive water network that supports its dual base specificities. Combined with the results of biochemical analyses, the crystal structure of MBD4 bound to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine further demonstrates that MBDMBD4 is able to recognize a wide range of 5-methylcytosine modifications through the unique water network. The versatile base recognition ability of MBDMBD4 implies multifunctional roles for MBD4 in the regulation of dynamic DNA methylation patterns coupled with deamination and/or oxidation of 5-methylcytosine.

    JMJD6 is reported to hydroxylate lysyl residues of a splicing factor, U2AF65. In this study, we found that JMJD6 hydroxylates histone lysyl residues. In vitro experiments showed that JMJD6 has a binding affinity to histone proteins and hydroxylates multiple lysyl residues of histone H3 and H4 tails. Using JMJD6 knock-out mouse embryos, we revealed that JMJD6 hydroxylates lysyl residues of histones H2A/H2B and H3/H4 in vivo by amino acid composition analysis. 5-Hydroxylysine was detected at the highest level in histones purified from murine testis, which expressed JMJD6 at a significantly high level among various tissues examined, and JMJD6 overexpression increased the amount of 5-hydroxylysine in histones in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. These results indicate that histones are additional substrates of JMJD6 in vivo. Because 5-hydroxylation of lysyl residues inhibited N-acetylation and N-methylation by an acetyltransferase and a methyltransferase, respectively, in vitro, histone 5-hydroxylation may have important roles in epigenetic regulation of gene transcription or chromosomal rearrangement.

By explicit determination of ligand-bound and unbound structures with X-ray crystallography, the quantitative comparison of the protein's dynamics in live cells and in vitro is presented. These results clearly demonstrated the greater conformational fluctuations of the intracellular protein, partially due to macromolecular crowding effects.

    Post-translational modification by small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) provides an important regulatory mechanism in diverse cellular processes. Modification of SUMO has been shown to target proteins involved in systems ranging from DNA repair pathways to the ubiquitin-proteasome degradation system by the action of SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligases (STUbLs). STUbLs recognize target proteins modified with a poly-SUMO chain through their SUMO-interacting motifs (SIMs). STUbLs are also associated with RENi family proteins, which commonly have two SUMO-like domains (SLD1 and SLD2) at their C terminus. We have determined the crystal structures of SLD2 of mouse RENi protein, Nip45, in a free form and in complex with a mouse E2 sumoylation enzyme, Ubc9. While Nip45 SLD2 shares a a-grasp fold with SUMO, the SIM interaction surface conserved in SUMO paralogues does not exist in SLD2. Biochemical data indicates that neither tandem SLDs or SLD2 of Nip45 bind to either tandem SIMs from either mouse STUbL, RNF4 or to those from SUMO-binding proteins, whose interactions with SUMO have been well characterized. On the other hand, Nip45 SLD2 binds to Ubc9 in an almost identical manner to that of SUMO and thereby inhibits elongation of poly-SUMO chains. This finding highlights a possible role of the RENi proteins in the modulation of Ubc9-mediated poly-SUMO formation.

    DNMT3 proteins are de novo DNA methyltransferases that are responsible for the establishment of DNA methylation patterns in mammalian genomes. Here, we have determined the crystal structures of the ATRX-DNMT3-DNMT3L (ADD) domain of DNMT3A in an unliganded form and in a complex with the amino-terminal tail of histone H3. Combined with the results of biochemical analysis, the complex structure indicates that DNMT3A recognizes the unmethylated state of lysine 4 in histone H3. This finding indicates that the recruitment of DNMT3A onto chromatin, and thereby de novo DNA methylation, is mediated by recognition of the histone modification state by its ADD domain. Furthermore, our biochemical and nuclear magnetic resonance data show mutually exclusive binding of the ADD domain of DNMT3A and the chromodomain of heterochromatin protein 1 alpha to the H3 tail. These results indicate that de novo DNA methylation by DNMT3A requires the alteration of chromatin structure.

    Circadian clocks are self-sustained biochemical oscillators. The oscillator of cyanobacteria comprises the products of three kai genes (kaiA, kaiB, and kaiC). The autophosphorylation cycle of KaiC oscillates robustly in the cell with a 24-h period and is essential for the basic timing of the cyanobacterial circadian clock. Recently, period extender (pex), mutants of which show a short period phenotype, was classified as a resetting-related gene. In fact, pex mRNA and the pex protein (Pex) increase during the dark period, and a pex mutant subjected to diurnal light-dark cycles shows a 3-h advance in rhythm phase. Here, we report the x-ray crystallographic analysis and biochemical characterization of Pex from cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942. The molecule has an (alpha+beta) structure with a winged-helix motif and is indicated to function as a dimer. The subunit arrangement in the dimer is unique and has not been seen in other winged-helix proteins. Electrophoresis mobility shift assay using a 25-base pair complementary oligonucleotide incorporating the kaiA upstream sequence demonstrates that Pex has an affinity for the double-stranded DNA. Furthermore, mutation analysis shows that Pex uses the wing region to recognize the DNA. The in vivo rhythm assay of Pex shows that the constitutive expression of the pex gene harboring the mutation that fails to bind to DNA lacks the period-prolongation activity in the pex-deficient Synechococcus, suggesting that Pex is a DNA-binding transcription factor.

    Protein arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is a transcriptional coregulator that catalyzes the calcium-dependent conversion of specific arginine residues in proteins to citrulline. Recently, we reported the synthesis and characterization of F-amidine, a potent and bioavailable irreversible inactivator of PAD4. Herein, we report our efforts to identify the steric and leaving group requirements for F-amidine-induced PAD4 inactivation, the structure of the PAD4-F-amidine, calcium complex, and in vivo studies with N-alpha-benzoyl-N-5-(2-chloro-1-iminoethyl)-L-ornithine amide (Cl-amidine), a PAD4 inactivator with enhanced potency. The PAD4 inactivators described herein will be useful pharmacological probes in characterizing the incompletely defined physiological role(s) of this enzyme. In addition, they represent potential lead compounds for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis because a growing body of evidence supports a role for PAD4 in the onset and progression of this chronic autoimmune disorder.

    Calcineurin B homologous protein 1( CHP1), also known as p22, is a calcium-binding EF-hand protein that plays a role in membrane trafficking. It binds to multiple effector proteins, including Na+/H+ exchangers, a serine/threonine kinase, and calcineurin, potentially modulating their function. The crystal structure of calcium-bound CHP1 from rat has been determined at 2.2 angstrom of resolution. The molecule has a compact alpha-helical structure containing four EF-hands. The overall folding topology of the protein is similar to that of the regulatory B subunit of calcineurin and to that of calcium-and integrin-binding protein. The calcium ion is coordinated in typical fashion in the third and fourth EF-hands, but the first and second EF-hands contain no calcium ion. The first EF-hand is maintained by internal interactions, and the second EF- hand is stabilized by hydrophobic interactions. CHP1 contains a hydrophobic pocket on the opposite side of the protein to the EF- hands that has been implicated in ligand binding.

    Peptidylarginine deimianse 4 (PAD4) is a Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of both arginine and mono-methyl arginine in histones into citrullines, and regulates both histone argininine methylation level and gene activity. Its gene is susceptibility locus for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) . Here we present the crystal structure of Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>-free wild-type PAD4, which shows that the polypeptide chain adopts an elongated fold in which the N-terminal domain forms two immunoglobulin-like subdomains, and the C-terminal domain forms an α/β propeller structure. Five Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>-binding sites, none of which adopts an EF-hand motif, were identified in the structure of a Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>-bound inactive mutant with and without bound substrate. These structural data indicate that Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>binding induces conformational changes that generate the active site cleft. Our findings identify a novel mechanism for enzyme activation by Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>ions, and are important for understanding the mechanism of protein citrullination and for developing PAD-inhibiting drugs for the treatment of RA.

    総括班は、領域全体の総括、研究の進捗状況の確認・評価のみならず、技術支援及び班員間の調整を行う目的で設置した。また一般社会向けの公開シンポジウムや、アウトリーチ活動を支援するとともに、成果の取りまとめや国際活動等の領域全体の企画・運営を行うことも目的とする。2020年度の総括班活動は、2019年度に開催予定でCOVID-19により延期していた国際シンポジウムの対面での開催を目指して調整したが、やはりCOVID-19蔓延による緊急事態宣言などで開催できず、2021年度開催に向けて準備を進めている。また国際シンポジウム他全ての総括班活動はCOVID-19のためオンラインでの実施となった。具体的には、2020年度は領域に公募班が加わったため、6月5日、7月13日、30日の3日にわたり領域全体会議をWebにて開催し、領域全体の研究について相互理解を深めた。また3月16日及び31日に総括班会議を開催し、COVID-19下における領域研究の進め方や方針について議論した。また外部評価委員からこれまでの領域研究の進展について評価を受けた。一方、対面でのシンポジウム開催が困難なことから、月1回の領域主催のWebinerを実施することとし、1月21日に領域外から3名の著名な研究者を招待して開催した。その他、染色体ワークショップ、核ダイナミクス研究会、エピジェネティックス研究会など複数の研究会を共催した。またアウトリーチ活動もCOVID-19下においても一部対面で実施した(緊急事態宣言等の制限のない時期で、かつ十分な感染予防対策を施した状況で)。

    研究代表者らは、一般的な細胞では核に局在するUHRF1が、卵母細胞および着床前胚では、大部分が細胞質に局在することを見出した。これらの細胞で一部核内に局在するUHRF1は卵母細胞成長期の新規DNAメチル化に関与し、着床前胚ではゲノムワイドに基底レベルのメチル化を維持することを見出した(前之原ら, 2017)。またUHRF1母方ノックアウトマウス胚は着床前後に致死となること、UHRF1は卵母細胞の細胞骨格形成に重要な役割を担っていること、UHRF1存在下で形成された細胞質が正常な発生に重要であること、UHRF1は着床前発生において正常な染色体分配と細胞分裂に重要であることなどを見出した。

    神経ガイド分子セマフォリン3A(Sema3A)は神経突起伸長を抑制する。Sema3Aは細胞内情報伝達分子CRMP1を介してアクチン細胞骨格を崩壊させる。本研究ではCRMP1とアクチン結合蛋白質Filamin-Aとの相互作用を見いだした。CRMP1はFilamin-AのN末端とC末端に結合し、その立体構造を大きく変化させた。CRMP1やFilamin-Aのそれぞれの結合領域の変異体はSema3Aの作用を阻害した。これはCRMP1・Filamin-A相互作用がSema3A情報伝達に必要なことを示す。CRMP1・Filamin-A結合の阻害により神経突起伸長を促す新たな薬物の開発へと発展させたい。
