DNA methylation is essential for mammalian development and physiology. Here we report that the developmentally regulated H19 lncRNA binds to and inhibits S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH), the only mammalian enzyme capable of hydrolysing S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). SAH is a potent feedback inhibitor of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferases that methylate diverse cellular components, including DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids and neurotransmitters. We show that H19 knockdown activates SAHH, leading to increased DNMT3B-mediated methylation of an lncRNA-encoding gene Nctc1 within the Igf2-H19-Nctc1 locus. Genome-wide methylation profiling reveals methylation changes at numerous gene loci consistent with SAHH modulation by H19. Our results uncover an unanticipated regulatory circuit involving broad epigenetic alterations by a single abundantly expressed lncRNA that may underlie gene methylation dynamics of development and diseases and suggest that this mode of regulation may extend to other cellular components.

H19 lncRNA 通过调节 S-腺苷高半胱氨酸水解酶改变基因组范围内的 DNA 甲基化。



DNA 甲基化对于哺乳动物的发育和生理至关重要。在这里,我们报告发育调控的 H19 lncRNA 结合并抑制 S-腺苷高半胱氨酸水解酶 (SAHH),这是唯一能够水解 S-腺苷高半胱氨酸 (SAH) 的哺乳动物酶。 SAH 是 S-腺苷甲硫氨酸 (SAM) 依赖性甲基转移酶的有效反馈抑制剂,该酶可甲基化多种细胞成分,包括 DNA、RNA、蛋白质、脂质和神经递质。我们发现,H19 敲低会激活 SAHH,导致 Igf2-H19-Nctc1 基因座内 DNMT3B 介导的 lncRNA 编码基因 Nctc1 甲基化增加。全基因组甲基化分析揭示了许多基因位点的甲基化变化,与 H19 的 SAHH 调节一致。我们的结果揭示了一个意想不到的调节回路,涉及单个丰富表达的lncRNA的广泛表观遗传改变,这可能是发育和疾病的基因甲基化动态的基础,并表明这种调节模式可能扩展到其他细胞成分。
