H3 lysine 4 methylation is required for full activation of genes involved in α-ketoglutarate availability in the nucleus of yeast cells after diauxic shift
We show that in S. cerevisiae the metabolic diauxic shift is associated with a H3 lysine 4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3) increase which involves a significant fraction of transcriptionally induced genes which are required for the metabolic changes, suggesting a role for histone methylation in their tran...

| Sumario: | We show that in S. cerevisiae the metabolic diauxic shift is associated with a H3 lysine 4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3) increase which involves a significant fraction of transcriptionally induced genes which are required for the metabolic changes, suggesting a role for histone methylation in their transcriptional regulation. We show that histone H3K4me3 around the start site correlates with transcriptional induction in some of these genes. Among the methylation-induced genes are IDP2 and ODC1, which regulate the nuclear availability of α-ketoglutarate, which, as a cofactor for Jhd2 demethylase, regulates H3K4 tri-methylation. We propose that this feedback circuit could be used to regulate the nuclear α-ketoglutarate pool concentration. We also show that yeast cells adapt to the absence of Jhd2 by decreasing Set1 methylation activity. |
