A role for cell-cycle-regulated histone H3 lysine 56 acetylation in the DNA damage response

DNA breaks are extremely harmful lesions that need to be repaired efficiently throughout the genome. However, the packaging of DNA into nucleosomes is a significant barrier to DNA repair, and the mechanisms of repair in the context of chromatin are poorly understood. Here we show that lysine 56 (K56) acetylation is an abundant modification of newly synthesized histone H3 molecules that are incorporated into chromosomes during S phase. Defects in the acetylation of K56 in histone H3 result in…

Histone H3 Lysine 56 Acetylation and the Response to DNA Replication Fork Damage
- BiologyMolecular and Cellular Biology
- 2011
It is reported that cells devoid of H3K56ac are sensitive to DNA damage sustained during transient exposure to methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) or camptothecin but are only mildly affected by hydroxyurea, and it is demonstrated that, after exposure to MMS, H3k56ac-deficient cells cannot complete DNA replication and eventually segregate chromosomes with intranuclear foci containing the recombination protein Rad52.

It is shown that ionizing irradiation induces TIP60 acetylation of histone H2AX, a variant form of H2A known to be phosphorylated following DNA damage, and ubiquitination via the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBC13, which is induced by DNA damage.

The results indicate that the sites of acetylation on newly synthesized histones H3 and H4 can function in nonoverlapping ways that are required for chromatin assembly, viability, and DNA damage response signaling.

Interestingly, analysis of occurrence of H3K56 acetylation using ChIP-on-chip revealed its genome-wide spread, affecting genes involved in several pathways that are implicated in tumorigenesis such as cell cycle, DNA damage response, DNA repair, and apoptosis.
Histone dosage regulates DNA damage sensitivity in a checkpoint-independent manner by the homologous recombination pathway
- BiologyNucleic acids research

Investigation of the effect of altering histone dosage on DNA repair in budding yeast found an increase in histone gene dosage resulted in enhanced DNA damage sensitivity, whereas deletion of a H3–H4 gene pair resulted in reduced levels of free H3 and H4 concomitant with resistance to DNA damaging agents, even in mutants defective in the DNA damage checkpoint.

This study identifies CK2 as a histone H3 tail kinase in vitro, identifies the phospho-acceptor site in vitro and characterize the modification in vivo in S. cerevisiae, and describes the contribution of H4 serine 1 phosphorylation in chromatin compaction by using reconstituted nucleosomal arrays to study folding in the analytical ultracentrifuge.

Emerging evidence, although not without conflict, suggests that H3K56ac is not only present in human cells, but is similarly regulated and required for chromatin reassembly.
