HDAC1/2/3 are major histone desuccinylases critical for promoter desuccinylation.

Cell discovery | 2023

Lysine succinylation is one of the major post-translational modifications occurring on histones and is believed to have significant roles in regulating chromatin structure and function. Currently, histone desuccinylation is widely believed to be catalyzed by members of the SIRT family deacetylases. Here, we report that histone desuccinylation is in fact primarily catalyzed by the class I HDAC1/2/3. Inhibition or depletion of HDAC1/2/3 resulted in a marked increase of global histone succinylation, whereas ectopic expression of HDAC1/2/3 but not their deacetylase inactive mutants downregulated global histone succinylation. We demonstrated that the class I HDAC1/2/3 complexes have robust histone desuccinylase activity in vitro. Genomic landscape analysis revealed that histone succinylation is highly enriched at gene promoters and inhibition of HDAC activity results in marked elevation of promoter histone succinylation. Furthermore, our integrated analysis revealed that promoter histone succinylation positively correlates with gene transcriptional activity. Collectively, we demonstrate that the class I HDAC1/2/3 but not the SIRT family proteins are the major histone desuccinylases particularly important for promoter histone desuccinylation. Our study thus sheds new light on the role of histone succinylation in transcriptional regulation.

ChIP-seq (tool)

RRID:SCR_001237

Set of software modules for performing common ChIP-seq data analysis tasks across the whole genome, including positional correlation analysis, peak detection, and genome partitioning into signal-rich and signal-poor regions. The tools are designed to be simple, fast and highly modular. Each program carries out a well defined data processing procedure that can potentially fit into a pipeline framework. ChIP-Seq is also freely available on a Web interface.
