Functions of GCN5 and P /CAF acetyltransferases in mammalian development

Histone acetyltransferases are important chromatin modifiers that function as transcriptional co-activators. The identification of the transcriptional regulator GCN5 as the first nuclear histone acetyltransferase in yeast directly linked chromatin remodeling to transcriptional regulation. Although emerging evidence suggests that acetyltransferases participate in multiple cellular processes, their roles in mammalian development remain undefined. In this study, I have cloned and characterized the mouse homolog of GCN5 and a closely related protein P/CAF that interacts with p300/CBP. In contrast to yeast GCN5, but similar to P/CAF, mouse GCN5 possesses an additional N-terminal domain that confers the ability to acetylate nucleosomal histones. GCN5 and P/CAF exhibit identical substrate specificity and both interact with p300/CBP. Interestingly, expression levels of GCN5 and P/CAF display a complementary pattern in mouse embryos and in adult tissues, suggesting that they have distinct tissue or developmental stage specific roles. To define the in vivo function of GCN5 and P/CAF, I have generated mice that are nullizygous for GCN5 or P/CAF. P/CAF null mice are viable and fertile with no gross morphological defects, indicating that P/CAF is dispensable for development and p300/CBP function in vivo. In contrast, mice lacking GCN5 die between 10.5–11 days of gestation. GCN5 null mice are severely retarded but have anterior ectopic outgrowth. Molecular marker analyses reveal that early mesoderm is formed in GCN5 null mice but further differentiation into distinct mesodermal lineages is perturbed. While presomitic mesoderm and chodamesoderm are missing in GCN5 mutant mice, extraembryonic tissues and lateral mesoderm are unaffected. This is consistent with our finding that GCN5 expression is absent in the heart and extraembryonic tissues but is uniform throughout the rest of the embryo. Remarkably, GCN5 mutant mice exhibit an unusually high incidence of apoptosis in the embryonic ectoderm and mesoderm. Finally, mice doubly null for GCN5 and P/CAF die much earlier than mice harboring the GCN5 mutation alone, suggesting that P/CAF and GCN5 share some overlapping function during embryogenesis. This work is the first study to show that specific acetyltransferase is important for cell survival as well as mesoderm differentiation or maintenance during early mammalian development. ^
