The Activity of JmjC Histone Lysine Demethylase KDM4A is Highly Sensitive to Oxygen Concentrations

Abstract: The JmjC histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) are epigenetic regulators involved in the removal of methyl groups from post-translationally modified lysyl residues within histone tails, modulating gene transcription. These enzymes require molecular oxygen for catalytic activity and, as 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenases, are related to the cellular oxygen sensing HIF hydroxylases PHD2 and FIH. Recent studies have indicated that the activity of some KDMs, including the pseudogene-encoded KDM4E, may be sensi… Show more

“…Studies were then carried out to evaluate the ability of the two KDM4A proteins to catalyse the demethylation of a histone peptide substrate. The two proteins (1 μ m ) were individually incubated with 2OG (100 μ m , a concentration well above its WT K M value of 26±7 μ m ), ascorbate (100 μ m ), ferrous iron (10 μ m ) and a 15‐residue H3K9me3 peptide (100 μ m , sequence: ARTKQTARKme3STGGKA) in HEPES buffer (50 m m , pH 7.5) at 37 °C; the extent of the reaction was determined by using MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometry after 40 min. Substantial demethylation of the H3K9me3 peptide was observed in the sample with WT KDM4A, resulting in formation of both di‐ and monomethylated products (H3K9me2 and H3K9me1 respectively, Figure A).…”

“…MS studies were then carried out to investigate whether demethylation by K241A KDM4A is stimulated by increasing the O 2 concentration. KDM assays (using the same final concentrations of components as above) were carried out with the use of a Mass Flow Controller (Brooks Instruments) to equilibrate the reactions at either 20 or 80 % O 2 , as described; reactions were left for 10 min before quenching (with methanol) and MALDI‐TOF MS analysis. As reported, the KDM activity of WT KDM4A increased with increasing O 2 concentration (from 31 to 46 % demethylation, Figure E) .…”

“…As we, and others, have found, epigenetic factors, including histone tail modifications and epigenetic enzymes likely also play important roles in regulating HIF target gene expression . However, as yet no other hypoxia/dioxygen sensors apart from the PHDs/FIH have been identified for the HIF system, though other 2OG oxygenases have been shown to have the potential to act in this capacity (e. g. histone demethylases) …”

“…Additionally, NF-κB controls gene expression of G1 cyclins, such as cyclin demethylase activity of these enzymes (JmjC domain) has a fold that is remarkably similar to the catalytic core of FIH [56,57]. In addition, investigation of the oxygen dependency of two of these enzymes revealed a graded drop in activity over physiologically relevant ranges of oxygen [58,59]. These studies indicate the potential of JmjC enzymes to link chromatin structure to oxygen sensing and participate in the hypoxia mediated transcriptional response.…”
