Disease

AF9_HUMAN A chromosomal aberration involving MLLT3 is associated with acute leukemias. Translocation t(9;11)(p22;q23) with KMT2A/MLL1. The result is a rogue activator protein.

Function

AF9_HUMAN Component of the super elongation complex (SEC), a complex required to increase the catalytic rate of RNA polymerase II transcription by suppressing transient pausing by the polymerase at multiple sites along the DNA.^[1] ^[2]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Histone lysine acylations play an important role in the regulation of gene transcription in chromatin. Unlike histone acetyl-lysine, molecular recognition of a recently identified crotonyl-lysine mark is much less understood. Here, we report that the YEATS domain of AF9 preferentially binds crotonyl-lysine over acetyl-lysine in histone H3. Nuclear magnetic resonance structural analysis reveals that crotonyl-lysine of histone H3 lysine 18 is engulfed deep in an aromatic cage of the YEATS domain where the carbonyl oxygen of crotonyl-lysine forms a hydrogen bond with the backbone amide of protein residue Tyr78. The crotonyl-lysine, through its unique electron-rich double-bond side chain, engages pi-pi aromatic stacking and extended hydrophobic/aromatic interactions with the YEATS domain compared with acetyl-lysine. Our mutational analysis confirmed key protein residues Phe59 and Tyr78 for crotonyl-lysine recognition. Importantly, our findings present a new structural mechanism of protein-protein interactions mediated by histone lysine crotonylation, and show how the cells interpret acyl-lysine marks in different biological contexts.
