The histone methyl transferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a master transcriptional regulator involved in histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation. We aimed to elucidate the precise post-translational regulations of EZH2 and their role in cancer pathogenesis. Here, we show that SET and MYND domain containing 2 (SMYD2) directly methylates EZH2 at lysine 307 (K307) and enhances its stability, which can be relieved by the histone H3K4 demethylase lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1). SMYD2 is critical for EZH2 function in repressing a cohort of genes governing several cancer-associated pathways. In addition, SMYD2 promotes breast cancer cell proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and invasion through EZH2 K307 methylation, and it is markedly upregulated in various human cancers. Our data suggest that dynamic crosstalk between SMYD2-mediated EZH2 methylation plays an important role in fine-tuning EZH2 functions in chromatin recruitment and transcriptional repression.
增强子结合锌指蛋白 2（EZH2）是一种组蛋白 H3 赖氨酸 27 三甲基化的主要转录调控因子。我们旨在阐明 EZH2 的精确翻译后调控及其在癌症发病机制中的作用。在这里，我们表明 SET 和 MYND 结构域包含 2（SMYD2）直接在赖氨酸 307（K307）处甲基化 EZH2，并增强其稳定性，该稳定性可以被组蛋白 H3K4 去甲基化酶赖氨酸特异性去甲基酶 1（LSD1）解除。SMYD2 对于 EZH2 抑制一组控制多种癌症相关途径的基因的功能至关重要。此外，SMYD2 通过 EZH2 K307 甲基化促进乳腺癌细胞增殖、上皮-间充质转化和侵袭，并且在各种人类癌症中显著上调。我们的数据表明，SMYD2 介导的 EZH2 甲基化之间的动态串扰在精细调节 EZH2 在染色质募集和转录抑制中的功能方面起着重要作用。
