Abstract 23
In eukaryotic cells histones are subject to a large number of post-translational 24
modifications whose sequential or combinatorial action affects chromatin structure and 25
genome function We have identified acetylation at lysine 36 in histone H3 (H3K36ac) 26
as a new chromatin modification in plants The H3K36ac modification is evolutionary 27
conserved in seed plants including the gymnosperm Norway spruce and the 28
angiosperms rice tobacco and Arabidopsis thaliana In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is highly 29
enriched in euchromatin but not in heterochromatin Genome-wide ChIP-seq 30
experiments revealed that H3K36ac peaks at the 5rsquo end of genes mainly on the two 31
nucleosomes immediately distal to the transcription start site independently of gene 32
length H3K36ac overlaps with H3K4me3 and the H2AZ histone variant The histone 33
acetyl transferase GCN5 and the histone deacetylase HDA19 are required for H3K36ac 34
homeostasis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 show negative crosstalk which is mediated by 35
GCN5 and the histone methyl transferase SDG8 Although H3K36ac is associated with 36
gene activity we did not find a linear relationship between H3K36ac and transcript 37
levels suggesting that H3K36ac is a binary indicator of transcription 38

Nuclear DNA of eukaryotes is packed in chromatin the basic unit of which is the 48
nucleosome consisting of 147 bp of DNA wrapped around a protein octamer formed by 49
two copies each of four histones (H2A H2B H3 H4) Chromatin structure and 50
composition are dynamically regulated both temporally and spatially within the nucleus 51
Covalent modifications of histones play an important role in the regulation of gene 52
expression by changing chromatin structure (Strahl et al 2000 Jenuwein et al 2001) 53
Many histone modifications have been identified including acetylation methylation 54
phosphorylation and ubiquitinylation (Cannon 1955 Zhang et al 2007) It has been 55
proposed that histone modifications act in a combinatorial manner to establish specific 56
chromatin states that regulate gene expression (Strahl et al 2000 Jenuwein et al 57
2001) It has been argued however that chromatin-dependent gene activity is only a 58
consequence of the cumulative effect of histone modifications rather than the 59
interpretation of an alphabet (Henikoff 2005) Using high-throughput methods with 60
improved sensitivity specificity and resolution such as mass spectrometry and 61
chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled to sequencing (ChIP-seq) the genomic 62
localization combinatorial patterns and enrichment of histone modifications can be 63
resolved at the level of individual nucleosomes (Liu et al 2005 Kharchenko et al 64
2011) 65
Histone acetylation is a dynamic and reversible modification in which an acetyl 66
group is transferred from acetyl-CoA to histone lysine residues Lysine acetylation 67
neutralizes positive charges of the histone tails thus decreasing their affinity for 68
negatively charged DNA (Hong et al 1993) Acetylated lysines can be recognized by 69
histone code readers such as Bromo domain proteins (Sanchez et al 2014) which then 70

may promote the recruitment of additional chromatin remodeler or modifier complexes 71
to relax chromatin and facilitate the binding or activation of RNA polymerases 72
(Bannister et al 2011) Histone lysine acetylation is often associated with transcription 73
and has important roles in numerous developmental and biological processes including 74
the regulation of cell cycle flowering time response to environmental conditions and 75
hormone signals (Chen et al 2007 Luo et al 2012) 76
Several amino-terminal lysine residues of histone H3 (K9 K14 K18 K23 and 77
K27) and H4 (K5 K8 K12 K16 and K20) are known to be acetylated in Arabidopsis 78
thaliana (Berr et al 2011) Histone acetylation is dynamically regulated with a usual 79
half-life of 2-3 minutes in human cell lines that rarely exceeds 30-40 minutes (for 80
review see (Iwamoto et al 2015) This rapid turn-over strongly suggests that instead of 81
influencing long-term epigenetic memory acetylation participates in short-term 82
alterations of chromatin states (Barth et al 2010) Homeostasis of histone acetylation is 83
maintained by histone acetyl transferases (HATs) which catalyze the histone 84
acetylation and histone deacetylases (HDACs) which remove the acetyl group (Pandey 85
et al 2002) 86
Histone lysine methylation is another well-studied epigenetic modification with 87
both activating and repressing roles in gene expression Histone lysine residues can be 88
mono- di- or tri-methylated Each distinct methylation state confers different functional 89
outcomes depending on the methylated histone residue the degree of methylation and 90
the chromatin context (Liu et al 2010) Methylated lysines constitute landmarks for 91
binding of chromo MBT Tudor W40 domain or PHD fingers containing proteins 92
which subsequently recruit additional protein complexes resulting in the compaction or 93
relaxation of chromatin structure (Greer et al 2012) 94

Compared to yeast and animals much less is known about the repertoire of 95
histone modification sites in plants Pioneering work in Arabidopsis includes genome-96
wide chromatin indexing by ChIP (Roudier et al 2011 Sequeira-Mendes et al 2014) 97
and characterization of histone modifications by mass spectrometry (Johnson et al 98
2004 Bergmuumlller et al 2007 Zhang et al 2007) In order to expand this knowledge 99
we implemented high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) histone separation 100
in combination with mass spectrometry to identify uncharacterized modifications on the 101
amino-terminal tail of histone H3 in Arabidopsis and its close relative Brassica 102
oleracea (cauliflower) We found H3K36 acetylation (H3K36ac) as a novel histone 103
modification in plants GCN5 a HAT and HDA19 an HDAC contribute to H3K36ac 104
homeostasis H3K36ac is enriched in euchromatic regions and excluded from 105
heterochromatin In addition H3K36ac is generally found at the 5rsquo end of 106
transcriptionally active genes where it overlaps with H3K4me3 and the H2AZ histone 107
variant As H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri-methylated we tested if the 108
mechanisms of tri-methylation or acetylation of H3K36 are interdependent H3K36ac 109
was increased in a mutant with reduced H3K36me3 and H3K36me3 was increased in 110
gcn5 mutants with reduced H3K36ac Thus acetylation and methylation at H3K36 are 111
in a competitive equilibrium that defines two alternative states 112

Results 114
The histone H3 modification profile is conserved in Brassicaceae 115
A histone extract from cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) heads was subjected to reverse-116
phase HPLC and fractions corresponding to H3 based on immunoblot detection were 117
collected and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-118

MSMS) using an LTQ-Orbitrap XL instrument For the analysis of long peptides both 119
CID (Collision-Induced Dissociation) and ETD (Electron Transfer Dissociation) 120
fragmentation were performed (Supplemental Fig S1) The high accuracy achieved in 121
the MS measurements allowed to distinguish between tri-methylated and acetylated 122
peptides (Δm = 00364 Da) Data were submitted to the Mascot search engine for 123
identification of proteins and post-translational modifications with a focus on 124
acetylation and methylation This produced a map of H3 acetylation and methylation in 125
cauliflower inflorescences (Supplemental Tab S1) Most of the identified H3 126
modifications and their combinations are consistent with those in Arabidopsis (Johnson 127
et al 2004 Zhang et al 2007) suggesting a high conservation of the histone 128
modifications 129
130
H3K36ac is a new modification in Arabidopsis 131
We identified H3K36ac as a novel H3 modification in plants (Supplemental Tab S1) 132
H3K36ac was found in two independent experiments using different enzymes 133
(Chymotrypsin and ArgC) The confidence for the localization of the modification site 134
was higher than 90 The MSMS spectrum of the ArgC-digested histone H3 shown in 135
Figure 1A details the c and z fragmentation ions for the parent peptide with an observed 136
mass of mz 15048468 The accurate mass of the recorded parent ion was consistent 137
with peptide acetylation (ΔM = 420106 Da) and not tri-methylation 138
(ΔM = 420470 Da) Importantly we detected H3K36 mono- di- and tri-methylation 139
on other H3 peptides confirming that this amino acid can be either methylated or 140
acetylated (Fig 1A Supplemental Fig S2 S3) 141

To validate and extend the mass spectrometry results a histone extract from 142
Arabidopsis inflorescences was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 143
probed with an anti-H3K36ac antibody The antibody was previously tested for 144
specificity in dot blots and proteinimmuno blots using modified and unmodified 145
peptides and validated for ChIP-seq (Morris et al 2007 Egelhofer et al 2011) The 146
antibody showed no cross-reactivity with eleven different tested acetylated histone 147
peptides (H2AK5ac H3K14ac H3K18ac H3K27ac H3K4ac H3K9ac H4K12ac 148
H4K16ac H4K581216ac H4K5ac H4K8ac) and many unmodified or methylated 149
histone peptides The positive signals for Arabidopsis histone extracts (Fig 2A) 150
confirmed the mass spectrometric identification of the H3K36ac modification in plants 151
Together proteomic and molecular methods support the identification of H3K36ac as a 152
novel histone modification in Brassicacea 153
154
H3K36ac is present in euchromatin 155
To establish the distribution of H3K36ac in the nucleus paraformaldehyde-fixed 156
Arabidopsis root-tip nuclei were immuno-stained using the anti-H3K36ac antibody 157
H3K36ac fluorescence signals were absent from nucleoli and DAPI-dense 158
chromocenters which are mostly comprised of centromeric and pericentromeric repeats 159
In contrast H3K36ac staining was observed in euchromatic regions (Fig 2B-E) 160
indicating that most H3K36ac is associated with less condensed gene-rich regions and 161
possibly active genes To test this prediction formaldehyde-crosslinked ChIP (X-ChIP) 162
was performed using anti-H3K36ac and anti-H3 antibodies Indeed H3K36ac levels 163
were high at the transcribed euchromatic ACTIN7 gene but low at the silent 164
heterochromatic Ta2 transposon (Fig 2F) The increased H3 signal at Ta2 is consistent 165

with earlier reports and might be related to the more compact chromatin structure in 166
heterochromatin (Rehrauer et al 2010 Shu et al 2012) Together these results suggest 167
that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189

9
enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236

11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314

Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

Abstract 23
In eukaryotic cells histones are subject to a large number of post-translational 24
modifications whose sequential or combinatorial action affects chromatin structure and 25
genome function We have identified acetylation at lysine 36 in histone H3 (H3K36ac) 26
as a new chromatin modification in plants The H3K36ac modification is evolutionary 27
conserved in seed plants including the gymnosperm Norway spruce and the 28
angiosperms rice tobacco and Arabidopsis thaliana In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is highly 29
enriched in euchromatin but not in heterochromatin Genome-wide ChIP-seq 30
experiments revealed that H3K36ac peaks at the 5rsquo end of genes mainly on the two 31
nucleosomes immediately distal to the transcription start site independently of gene 32
length H3K36ac overlaps with H3K4me3 and the H2AZ histone variant The histone 33
acetyl transferase GCN5 and the histone deacetylase HDA19 are required for H3K36ac 34
homeostasis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 show negative crosstalk which is mediated by 35
GCN5 and the histone methyl transferase SDG8 Although H3K36ac is associated with 36
gene activity we did not find a linear relationship between H3K36ac and transcript 37
levels suggesting that H3K36ac is a binary indicator of transcription 38

One sentence summary 41
Profiling of histone H3 modifications by MSMS identified H3K36ac which is 42
introduced at the first 500 bp of active Arabidopsis genes by GCN5 and is conserved in 43
gymnosperms and angiosperms 44

Nuclear DNA of eukaryotes is packed in chromatin the basic unit of which is the 48
nucleosome consisting of 147 bp of DNA wrapped around a protein octamer formed by 49
two copies each of four histones (H2A H2B H3 H4) Chromatin structure and 50
composition are dynamically regulated both temporally and spatially within the nucleus 51
Covalent modifications of histones play an important role in the regulation of gene 52
expression by changing chromatin structure (Strahl et al 2000 Jenuwein et al 2001) 53
Many histone modifications have been identified including acetylation methylation 54
phosphorylation and ubiquitinylation (Cannon 1955 Zhang et al 2007) It has been 55
proposed that histone modifications act in a combinatorial manner to establish specific 56
chromatin states that regulate gene expression (Strahl et al 2000 Jenuwein et al 57
2001) It has been argued however that chromatin-dependent gene activity is only a 58
consequence of the cumulative effect of histone modifications rather than the 59
interpretation of an alphabet (Henikoff 2005) Using high-throughput methods with 60
improved sensitivity specificity and resolution such as mass spectrometry and 61
chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled to sequencing (ChIP-seq) the genomic 62
localization combinatorial patterns and enrichment of histone modifications can be 63
resolved at the level of individual nucleosomes (Liu et al 2005 Kharchenko et al 64
2011) 65
Histone acetylation is a dynamic and reversible modification in which an acetyl 66
group is transferred from acetyl-CoA to histone lysine residues Lysine acetylation 67
neutralizes positive charges of the histone tails thus decreasing their affinity for 68
negatively charged DNA (Hong et al 1993) Acetylated lysines can be recognized by 69
histone code readers such as Bromo domain proteins (Sanchez et al 2014) which then 70

may promote the recruitment of additional chromatin remodeler or modifier complexes 71
to relax chromatin and facilitate the binding or activation of RNA polymerases 72
(Bannister et al 2011) Histone lysine acetylation is often associated with transcription 73
and has important roles in numerous developmental and biological processes including 74
the regulation of cell cycle flowering time response to environmental conditions and 75
hormone signals (Chen et al 2007 Luo et al 2012) 76
Several amino-terminal lysine residues of histone H3 (K9 K14 K18 K23 and 77
K27) and H4 (K5 K8 K12 K16 and K20) are known to be acetylated in Arabidopsis 78
thaliana (Berr et al 2011) Histone acetylation is dynamically regulated with a usual 79
half-life of 2-3 minutes in human cell lines that rarely exceeds 30-40 minutes (for 80
review see (Iwamoto et al 2015) This rapid turn-over strongly suggests that instead of 81
influencing long-term epigenetic memory acetylation participates in short-term 82
alterations of chromatin states (Barth et al 2010) Homeostasis of histone acetylation is 83
maintained by histone acetyl transferases (HATs) which catalyze the histone 84
acetylation and histone deacetylases (HDACs) which remove the acetyl group (Pandey 85
et al 2002) 86
Histone lysine methylation is another well-studied epigenetic modification with 87
both activating and repressing roles in gene expression Histone lysine residues can be 88
mono- di- or tri-methylated Each distinct methylation state confers different functional 89
outcomes depending on the methylated histone residue the degree of methylation and 90
the chromatin context (Liu et al 2010) Methylated lysines constitute landmarks for 91
binding of chromo MBT Tudor W40 domain or PHD fingers containing proteins 92
which subsequently recruit additional protein complexes resulting in the compaction or 93
relaxation of chromatin structure (Greer et al 2012) 94

Compared to yeast and animals much less is known about the repertoire of 95
histone modification sites in plants Pioneering work in Arabidopsis includes genome-96
wide chromatin indexing by ChIP (Roudier et al 2011 Sequeira-Mendes et al 2014) 97
and characterization of histone modifications by mass spectrometry (Johnson et al 98
2004 Bergmuumlller et al 2007 Zhang et al 2007) In order to expand this knowledge 99
we implemented high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) histone separation 100
in combination with mass spectrometry to identify uncharacterized modifications on the 101
amino-terminal tail of histone H3 in Arabidopsis and its close relative Brassica 102
oleracea (cauliflower) We found H3K36 acetylation (H3K36ac) as a novel histone 103
modification in plants GCN5 a HAT and HDA19 an HDAC contribute to H3K36ac 104
homeostasis H3K36ac is enriched in euchromatic regions and excluded from 105
heterochromatin In addition H3K36ac is generally found at the 5rsquo end of 106
transcriptionally active genes where it overlaps with H3K4me3 and the H2AZ histone 107
variant As H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri-methylated we tested if the 108
mechanisms of tri-methylation or acetylation of H3K36 are interdependent H3K36ac 109
was increased in a mutant with reduced H3K36me3 and H3K36me3 was increased in 110
gcn5 mutants with reduced H3K36ac Thus acetylation and methylation at H3K36 are 111
in a competitive equilibrium that defines two alternative states 112

MSMS) using an LTQ-Orbitrap XL instrument For the analysis of long peptides both 119
CID (Collision-Induced Dissociation) and ETD (Electron Transfer Dissociation) 120
fragmentation were performed (Supplemental Fig S1) The high accuracy achieved in 121
the MS measurements allowed to distinguish between tri-methylated and acetylated 122
peptides (Δm = 00364 Da) Data were submitted to the Mascot search engine for 123
identification of proteins and post-translational modifications with a focus on 124
acetylation and methylation This produced a map of H3 acetylation and methylation in 125
cauliflower inflorescences (Supplemental Tab S1) Most of the identified H3 126
modifications and their combinations are consistent with those in Arabidopsis (Johnson 127
et al 2004 Zhang et al 2007) suggesting a high conservation of the histone 128
modifications 129
130
H3K36ac is a new modification in Arabidopsis 131
We identified H3K36ac as a novel H3 modification in plants (Supplemental Tab S1) 132
H3K36ac was found in two independent experiments using different enzymes 133
(Chymotrypsin and ArgC) The confidence for the localization of the modification site 134
was higher than 90 The MSMS spectrum of the ArgC-digested histone H3 shown in 135
Figure 1A details the c and z fragmentation ions for the parent peptide with an observed 136
mass of mz 15048468 The accurate mass of the recorded parent ion was consistent 137
with peptide acetylation (ΔM = 420106 Da) and not tri-methylation 138
(ΔM = 420470 Da) Importantly we detected H3K36 mono- di- and tri-methylation 139
on other H3 peptides confirming that this amino acid can be either methylated or 140
acetylated (Fig 1A Supplemental Fig S2 S3) 141

To validate and extend the mass spectrometry results a histone extract from 142
Arabidopsis inflorescences was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 143
probed with an anti-H3K36ac antibody The antibody was previously tested for 144
specificity in dot blots and proteinimmuno blots using modified and unmodified 145
peptides and validated for ChIP-seq (Morris et al 2007 Egelhofer et al 2011) The 146
antibody showed no cross-reactivity with eleven different tested acetylated histone 147
peptides (H2AK5ac H3K14ac H3K18ac H3K27ac H3K4ac H3K9ac H4K12ac 148
H4K16ac H4K581216ac H4K5ac H4K8ac) and many unmodified or methylated 149
histone peptides The positive signals for Arabidopsis histone extracts (Fig 2A) 150
confirmed the mass spectrometric identification of the H3K36ac modification in plants 151
Together proteomic and molecular methods support the identification of H3K36ac as a 152
novel histone modification in Brassicacea 153
154
H3K36ac is present in euchromatin 155
To establish the distribution of H3K36ac in the nucleus paraformaldehyde-fixed 156
Arabidopsis root-tip nuclei were immuno-stained using the anti-H3K36ac antibody 157
H3K36ac fluorescence signals were absent from nucleoli and DAPI-dense 158
chromocenters which are mostly comprised of centromeric and pericentromeric repeats 159
In contrast H3K36ac staining was observed in euchromatic regions (Fig 2B-E) 160
indicating that most H3K36ac is associated with less condensed gene-rich regions and 161
possibly active genes To test this prediction formaldehyde-crosslinked ChIP (X-ChIP) 162
was performed using anti-H3K36ac and anti-H3 antibodies Indeed H3K36ac levels 163
were high at the transcribed euchromatic ACTIN7 gene but low at the silent 164
heterochromatic Ta2 transposon (Fig 2F) The increased H3 signal at Ta2 is consistent 165

with earlier reports and might be related to the more compact chromatin structure in 166
heterochromatin (Rehrauer et al 2010 Shu et al 2012) Together these results suggest 167
that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189

enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386
Experimental procedures 387

Nuclear DNA of eukaryotes is packed in chromatin the basic unit of which is the 48
nucleosome consisting of 147 bp of DNA wrapped around a protein octamer formed by 49
two copies each of four histones (H2A H2B H3 H4) Chromatin structure and 50
composition are dynamically regulated both temporally and spatially within the nucleus 51
Covalent modifications of histones play an important role in the regulation of gene 52
expression by changing chromatin structure (Strahl et al 2000 Jenuwein et al 2001) 53
Many histone modifications have been identified including acetylation methylation 54
phosphorylation and ubiquitinylation (Cannon 1955 Zhang et al 2007) It has been 55
proposed that histone modifications act in a combinatorial manner to establish specific 56
chromatin states that regulate gene expression (Strahl et al 2000 Jenuwein et al 57
2001) It has been argued however that chromatin-dependent gene activity is only a 58
consequence of the cumulative effect of histone modifications rather than the 59
interpretation of an alphabet (Henikoff 2005) Using high-throughput methods with 60
improved sensitivity specificity and resolution such as mass spectrometry and 61
chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled to sequencing (ChIP-seq) the genomic 62
localization combinatorial patterns and enrichment of histone modifications can be 63
resolved at the level of individual nucleosomes (Liu et al 2005 Kharchenko et al 64
2011) 65
Histone acetylation is a dynamic and reversible modification in which an acetyl 66
group is transferred from acetyl-CoA to histone lysine residues Lysine acetylation 67
neutralizes positive charges of the histone tails thus decreasing their affinity for 68
negatively charged DNA (Hong et al 1993) Acetylated lysines can be recognized by 69
histone code readers such as Bromo domain proteins (Sanchez et al 2014) which then 70

may promote the recruitment of additional chromatin remodeler or modifier complexes 71
to relax chromatin and facilitate the binding or activation of RNA polymerases 72
(Bannister et al 2011) Histone lysine acetylation is often associated with transcription 73
and has important roles in numerous developmental and biological processes including 74
the regulation of cell cycle flowering time response to environmental conditions and 75
hormone signals (Chen et al 2007 Luo et al 2012) 76
Several amino-terminal lysine residues of histone H3 (K9 K14 K18 K23 and 77
K27) and H4 (K5 K8 K12 K16 and K20) are known to be acetylated in Arabidopsis 78
thaliana (Berr et al 2011) Histone acetylation is dynamically regulated with a usual 79
half-life of 2-3 minutes in human cell lines that rarely exceeds 30-40 minutes (for 80
review see (Iwamoto et al 2015) This rapid turn-over strongly suggests that instead of 81
influencing long-term epigenetic memory acetylation participates in short-term 82
alterations of chromatin states (Barth et al 2010) Homeostasis of histone acetylation is 83
maintained by histone acetyl transferases (HATs) which catalyze the histone 84
acetylation and histone deacetylases (HDACs) which remove the acetyl group (Pandey 85
et al 2002) 86
Histone lysine methylation is another well-studied epigenetic modification with 87
both activating and repressing roles in gene expression Histone lysine residues can be 88
mono- di- or tri-methylated Each distinct methylation state confers different functional 89
outcomes depending on the methylated histone residue the degree of methylation and 90
the chromatin context (Liu et al 2010) Methylated lysines constitute landmarks for 91
binding of chromo MBT Tudor W40 domain or PHD fingers containing proteins 92
which subsequently recruit additional protein complexes resulting in the compaction or 93
relaxation of chromatin structure (Greer et al 2012) 94

Compared to yeast and animals much less is known about the repertoire of 95
histone modification sites in plants Pioneering work in Arabidopsis includes genome-96
wide chromatin indexing by ChIP (Roudier et al 2011 Sequeira-Mendes et al 2014) 97
and characterization of histone modifications by mass spectrometry (Johnson et al 98
2004 Bergmuumlller et al 2007 Zhang et al 2007) In order to expand this knowledge 99
we implemented high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) histone separation 100
in combination with mass spectrometry to identify uncharacterized modifications on the 101
amino-terminal tail of histone H3 in Arabidopsis and its close relative Brassica 102
oleracea (cauliflower) We found H3K36 acetylation (H3K36ac) as a novel histone 103
modification in plants GCN5 a HAT and HDA19 an HDAC contribute to H3K36ac 104
homeostasis H3K36ac is enriched in euchromatic regions and excluded from 105
heterochromatin In addition H3K36ac is generally found at the 5rsquo end of 106
transcriptionally active genes where it overlaps with H3K4me3 and the H2AZ histone 107
variant As H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri-methylated we tested if the 108
mechanisms of tri-methylation or acetylation of H3K36 are interdependent H3K36ac 109
was increased in a mutant with reduced H3K36me3 and H3K36me3 was increased in 110
gcn5 mutants with reduced H3K36ac Thus acetylation and methylation at H3K36 are 111
in a competitive equilibrium that defines two alternative states 112

Results 114
The histone H3 modification profile is conserved in Brassicaceae 115
A histone extract from cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) heads was subjected to reverse-116
phase HPLC and fractions corresponding to H3 based on immunoblot detection were 117
collected and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-118

MSMS) using an LTQ-Orbitrap XL instrument For the analysis of long peptides both 119
CID (Collision-Induced Dissociation) and ETD (Electron Transfer Dissociation) 120
fragmentation were performed (Supplemental Fig S1) The high accuracy achieved in 121
the MS measurements allowed to distinguish between tri-methylated and acetylated 122
peptides (Δm = 00364 Da) Data were submitted to the Mascot search engine for 123
identification of proteins and post-translational modifications with a focus on 124
acetylation and methylation This produced a map of H3 acetylation and methylation in 125
cauliflower inflorescences (Supplemental Tab S1) Most of the identified H3 126
modifications and their combinations are consistent with those in Arabidopsis (Johnson 127
et al 2004 Zhang et al 2007) suggesting a high conservation of the histone 128
modifications 129
130
H3K36ac is a new modification in Arabidopsis 131
We identified H3K36ac as a novel H3 modification in plants (Supplemental Tab S1) 132
H3K36ac was found in two independent experiments using different enzymes 133
(Chymotrypsin and ArgC) The confidence for the localization of the modification site 134
was higher than 90 The MSMS spectrum of the ArgC-digested histone H3 shown in 135
Figure 1A details the c and z fragmentation ions for the parent peptide with an observed 136
mass of mz 15048468 The accurate mass of the recorded parent ion was consistent 137
with peptide acetylation (ΔM = 420106 Da) and not tri-methylation 138
(ΔM = 420470 Da) Importantly we detected H3K36 mono- di- and tri-methylation 139
on other H3 peptides confirming that this amino acid can be either methylated or 140
acetylated (Fig 1A Supplemental Fig S2 S3) 141

To validate and extend the mass spectrometry results a histone extract from 142
Arabidopsis inflorescences was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 143
probed with an anti-H3K36ac antibody The antibody was previously tested for 144
specificity in dot blots and proteinimmuno blots using modified and unmodified 145
peptides and validated for ChIP-seq (Morris et al 2007 Egelhofer et al 2011) The 146
antibody showed no cross-reactivity with eleven different tested acetylated histone 147
peptides (H2AK5ac H3K14ac H3K18ac H3K27ac H3K4ac H3K9ac H4K12ac 148
H4K16ac H4K581216ac H4K5ac H4K8ac) and many unmodified or methylated 149
histone peptides The positive signals for Arabidopsis histone extracts (Fig 2A) 150
confirmed the mass spectrometric identification of the H3K36ac modification in plants 151
Together proteomic and molecular methods support the identification of H3K36ac as a 152
novel histone modification in Brassicacea 153
154
H3K36ac is present in euchromatin 155
To establish the distribution of H3K36ac in the nucleus paraformaldehyde-fixed 156
Arabidopsis root-tip nuclei were immuno-stained using the anti-H3K36ac antibody 157
H3K36ac fluorescence signals were absent from nucleoli and DAPI-dense 158
chromocenters which are mostly comprised of centromeric and pericentromeric repeats 159
In contrast H3K36ac staining was observed in euchromatic regions (Fig 2B-E) 160
indicating that most H3K36ac is associated with less condensed gene-rich regions and 161
possibly active genes To test this prediction formaldehyde-crosslinked ChIP (X-ChIP) 162
was performed using anti-H3K36ac and anti-H3 antibodies Indeed H3K36ac levels 163
were high at the transcribed euchromatic ACTIN7 gene but low at the silent 164
heterochromatic Ta2 transposon (Fig 2F) The increased H3 signal at Ta2 is consistent 165

with earlier reports and might be related to the more compact chromatin structure in 166
heterochromatin (Rehrauer et al 2010 Shu et al 2012) Together these results suggest 167
that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
9
enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386
Experimental procedures 387
Plant material 388
The following Arabidopsis thaliana lines were previously described HDA19-RNAi1 389
(Zhou et al 2005) gcn5-1 (Vlachonasios et al 2003) 35SFlag-HDA6 (Earley et al 390
2006) hda6-1 (Aufsatz et al 2002) and sdg8-2 (Xu et al 2008) The HDA19-RNAi1 391
was shown to have no off-target effects on the close HDA19 homolog HDA6 (Zhou et 392
al 2005 Mehdi et al 2015) Seeds were sown on 05times basal salts Murashige and 393

may promote the recruitment of additional chromatin remodeler or modifier complexes 71
to relax chromatin and facilitate the binding or activation of RNA polymerases 72
(Bannister et al 2011) Histone lysine acetylation is often associated with transcription 73
and has important roles in numerous developmental and biological processes including 74
the regulation of cell cycle flowering time response to environmental conditions and 75
hormone signals (Chen et al 2007 Luo et al 2012) 76
Several amino-terminal lysine residues of histone H3 (K9 K14 K18 K23 and 77
K27) and H4 (K5 K8 K12 K16 and K20) are known to be acetylated in Arabidopsis 78
thaliana (Berr et al 2011) Histone acetylation is dynamically regulated with a usual 79
half-life of 2-3 minutes in human cell lines that rarely exceeds 30-40 minutes (for 80
review see (Iwamoto et al 2015) This rapid turn-over strongly suggests that instead of 81
influencing long-term epigenetic memory acetylation participates in short-term 82
alterations of chromatin states (Barth et al 2010) Homeostasis of histone acetylation is 83
maintained by histone acetyl transferases (HATs) which catalyze the histone 84
acetylation and histone deacetylases (HDACs) which remove the acetyl group (Pandey 85
et al 2002) 86
Histone lysine methylation is another well-studied epigenetic modification with 87
both activating and repressing roles in gene expression Histone lysine residues can be 88
mono- di- or tri-methylated Each distinct methylation state confers different functional 89
outcomes depending on the methylated histone residue the degree of methylation and 90
the chromatin context (Liu et al 2010) Methylated lysines constitute landmarks for 91
binding of chromo MBT Tudor W40 domain or PHD fingers containing proteins 92
which subsequently recruit additional protein complexes resulting in the compaction or 93
relaxation of chromatin structure (Greer et al 2012) 94

Compared to yeast and animals much less is known about the repertoire of 95
histone modification sites in plants Pioneering work in Arabidopsis includes genome-96
wide chromatin indexing by ChIP (Roudier et al 2011 Sequeira-Mendes et al 2014) 97
and characterization of histone modifications by mass spectrometry (Johnson et al 98
2004 Bergmuumlller et al 2007 Zhang et al 2007) In order to expand this knowledge 99
we implemented high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) histone separation 100
in combination with mass spectrometry to identify uncharacterized modifications on the 101
amino-terminal tail of histone H3 in Arabidopsis and its close relative Brassica 102
oleracea (cauliflower) We found H3K36 acetylation (H3K36ac) as a novel histone 103
modification in plants GCN5 a HAT and HDA19 an HDAC contribute to H3K36ac 104
homeostasis H3K36ac is enriched in euchromatic regions and excluded from 105
heterochromatin In addition H3K36ac is generally found at the 5rsquo end of 106
transcriptionally active genes where it overlaps with H3K4me3 and the H2AZ histone 107
variant As H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri-methylated we tested if the 108
mechanisms of tri-methylation or acetylation of H3K36 are interdependent H3K36ac 109
was increased in a mutant with reduced H3K36me3 and H3K36me3 was increased in 110
gcn5 mutants with reduced H3K36ac Thus acetylation and methylation at H3K36 are 111
in a competitive equilibrium that defines two alternative states 112

Results 114
The histone H3 modification profile is conserved in Brassicaceae 115
A histone extract from cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) heads was subjected to reverse-116
phase HPLC and fractions corresponding to H3 based on immunoblot detection were 117
collected and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-118

MSMS) using an LTQ-Orbitrap XL instrument For the analysis of long peptides both 119
CID (Collision-Induced Dissociation) and ETD (Electron Transfer Dissociation) 120
fragmentation were performed (Supplemental Fig S1) The high accuracy achieved in 121
the MS measurements allowed to distinguish between tri-methylated and acetylated 122
peptides (Δm = 00364 Da) Data were submitted to the Mascot search engine for 123
identification of proteins and post-translational modifications with a focus on 124
acetylation and methylation This produced a map of H3 acetylation and methylation in 125
cauliflower inflorescences (Supplemental Tab S1) Most of the identified H3 126
modifications and their combinations are consistent with those in Arabidopsis (Johnson 127
et al 2004 Zhang et al 2007) suggesting a high conservation of the histone 128
modifications 129
130
H3K36ac is a new modification in Arabidopsis 131
We identified H3K36ac as a novel H3 modification in plants (Supplemental Tab S1) 132
H3K36ac was found in two independent experiments using different enzymes 133
(Chymotrypsin and ArgC) The confidence for the localization of the modification site 134
was higher than 90 The MSMS spectrum of the ArgC-digested histone H3 shown in 135
Figure 1A details the c and z fragmentation ions for the parent peptide with an observed 136
mass of mz 15048468 The accurate mass of the recorded parent ion was consistent 137
with peptide acetylation (ΔM = 420106 Da) and not tri-methylation 138
(ΔM = 420470 Da) Importantly we detected H3K36 mono- di- and tri-methylation 139
on other H3 peptides confirming that this amino acid can be either methylated or 140
acetylated (Fig 1A Supplemental Fig S2 S3) 141

To validate and extend the mass spectrometry results a histone extract from 142
Arabidopsis inflorescences was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 143
probed with an anti-H3K36ac antibody The antibody was previously tested for 144
specificity in dot blots and proteinimmuno blots using modified and unmodified 145
peptides and validated for ChIP-seq (Morris et al 2007 Egelhofer et al 2011) The 146
antibody showed no cross-reactivity with eleven different tested acetylated histone 147
peptides (H2AK5ac H3K14ac H3K18ac H3K27ac H3K4ac H3K9ac H4K12ac 148
H4K16ac H4K581216ac H4K5ac H4K8ac) and many unmodified or methylated 149
histone peptides The positive signals for Arabidopsis histone extracts (Fig 2A) 150
confirmed the mass spectrometric identification of the H3K36ac modification in plants 151
Together proteomic and molecular methods support the identification of H3K36ac as a 152
novel histone modification in Brassicacea 153
154
H3K36ac is present in euchromatin 155
To establish the distribution of H3K36ac in the nucleus paraformaldehyde-fixed 156
Arabidopsis root-tip nuclei were immuno-stained using the anti-H3K36ac antibody 157
H3K36ac fluorescence signals were absent from nucleoli and DAPI-dense 158
chromocenters which are mostly comprised of centromeric and pericentromeric repeats 159
In contrast H3K36ac staining was observed in euchromatic regions (Fig 2B-E) 160
indicating that most H3K36ac is associated with less condensed gene-rich regions and 161
possibly active genes To test this prediction formaldehyde-crosslinked ChIP (X-ChIP) 162
was performed using anti-H3K36ac and anti-H3 antibodies Indeed H3K36ac levels 163
were high at the transcribed euchromatic ACTIN7 gene but low at the silent 164
heterochromatic Ta2 transposon (Fig 2F) The increased H3 signal at Ta2 is consistent 165

with earlier reports and might be related to the more compact chromatin structure in 166
heterochromatin (Rehrauer et al 2010 Shu et al 2012) Together these results suggest 167
that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
9
enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302

and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307

MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314

Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

Compared to yeast and animals much less is known about the repertoire of 95
histone modification sites in plants Pioneering work in Arabidopsis includes genome-96
wide chromatin indexing by ChIP (Roudier et al 2011 Sequeira-Mendes et al 2014) 97
and characterization of histone modifications by mass spectrometry (Johnson et al 98
2004 Bergmuumlller et al 2007 Zhang et al 2007) In order to expand this knowledge 99
we implemented high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) histone separation 100
in combination with mass spectrometry to identify uncharacterized modifications on the 101
amino-terminal tail of histone H3 in Arabidopsis and its close relative Brassica 102
oleracea (cauliflower) We found H3K36 acetylation (H3K36ac) as a novel histone 103
modification in plants GCN5 a HAT and HDA19 an HDAC contribute to H3K36ac 104
homeostasis H3K36ac is enriched in euchromatic regions and excluded from 105
heterochromatin In addition H3K36ac is generally found at the 5rsquo end of 106
transcriptionally active genes where it overlaps with H3K4me3 and the H2AZ histone 107
variant As H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri-methylated we tested if the 108
mechanisms of tri-methylation or acetylation of H3K36 are interdependent H3K36ac 109
was increased in a mutant with reduced H3K36me3 and H3K36me3 was increased in 110
gcn5 mutants with reduced H3K36ac Thus acetylation and methylation at H3K36 are 111
in a competitive equilibrium that defines two alternative states 112
113
Results 114
The histone H3 modification profile is conserved in Brassicaceae 115
A histone extract from cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) heads was subjected to reverse-116
phase HPLC and fractions corresponding to H3 based on immunoblot detection were 117
collected and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-118

MSMS) using an LTQ-Orbitrap XL instrument For the analysis of long peptides both 119
CID (Collision-Induced Dissociation) and ETD (Electron Transfer Dissociation) 120
fragmentation were performed (Supplemental Fig S1) The high accuracy achieved in 121
the MS measurements allowed to distinguish between tri-methylated and acetylated 122
peptides (Δm = 00364 Da) Data were submitted to the Mascot search engine for 123
identification of proteins and post-translational modifications with a focus on 124
acetylation and methylation This produced a map of H3 acetylation and methylation in 125
cauliflower inflorescences (Supplemental Tab S1) Most of the identified H3 126
modifications and their combinations are consistent with those in Arabidopsis (Johnson 127
et al 2004 Zhang et al 2007) suggesting a high conservation of the histone 128
modifications 129
130
H3K36ac is a new modification in Arabidopsis 131
We identified H3K36ac as a novel H3 modification in plants (Supplemental Tab S1) 132
H3K36ac was found in two independent experiments using different enzymes 133
(Chymotrypsin and ArgC) The confidence for the localization of the modification site 134
was higher than 90 The MSMS spectrum of the ArgC-digested histone H3 shown in 135
Figure 1A details the c and z fragmentation ions for the parent peptide with an observed 136
mass of mz 15048468 The accurate mass of the recorded parent ion was consistent 137
with peptide acetylation (ΔM = 420106 Da) and not tri-methylation 138
(ΔM = 420470 Da) Importantly we detected H3K36 mono- di- and tri-methylation 139
on other H3 peptides confirming that this amino acid can be either methylated or 140
acetylated (Fig 1A Supplemental Fig S2 S3) 141

To validate and extend the mass spectrometry results a histone extract from 142
Arabidopsis inflorescences was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 143
probed with an anti-H3K36ac antibody The antibody was previously tested for 144
specificity in dot blots and proteinimmuno blots using modified and unmodified 145
peptides and validated for ChIP-seq (Morris et al 2007 Egelhofer et al 2011) The 146
antibody showed no cross-reactivity with eleven different tested acetylated histone 147
peptides (H2AK5ac H3K14ac H3K18ac H3K27ac H3K4ac H3K9ac H4K12ac 148
H4K16ac H4K581216ac H4K5ac H4K8ac) and many unmodified or methylated 149
histone peptides The positive signals for Arabidopsis histone extracts (Fig 2A) 150
confirmed the mass spectrometric identification of the H3K36ac modification in plants 151
Together proteomic and molecular methods support the identification of H3K36ac as a 152
novel histone modification in Brassicacea 153
154
H3K36ac is present in euchromatin 155
To establish the distribution of H3K36ac in the nucleus paraformaldehyde-fixed 156
Arabidopsis root-tip nuclei were immuno-stained using the anti-H3K36ac antibody 157
H3K36ac fluorescence signals were absent from nucleoli and DAPI-dense 158
chromocenters which are mostly comprised of centromeric and pericentromeric repeats 159
In contrast H3K36ac staining was observed in euchromatic regions (Fig 2B-E) 160
indicating that most H3K36ac is associated with less condensed gene-rich regions and 161
possibly active genes To test this prediction formaldehyde-crosslinked ChIP (X-ChIP) 162
was performed using anti-H3K36ac and anti-H3 antibodies Indeed H3K36ac levels 163
were high at the transcribed euchromatic ACTIN7 gene but low at the silent 164
heterochromatic Ta2 transposon (Fig 2F) The increased H3 signal at Ta2 is consistent 165

with earlier reports and might be related to the more compact chromatin structure in 166
heterochromatin (Rehrauer et al 2010 Shu et al 2012) Together these results suggest 167
that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
9
enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236

Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260

methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

MSMS) using an LTQ-Orbitrap XL instrument For the analysis of long peptides both 119
CID (Collision-Induced Dissociation) and ETD (Electron Transfer Dissociation) 120
fragmentation were performed (Supplemental Fig S1) The high accuracy achieved in 121
the MS measurements allowed to distinguish between tri-methylated and acetylated 122
peptides (Δm = 00364 Da) Data were submitted to the Mascot search engine for 123
identification of proteins and post-translational modifications with a focus on 124
acetylation and methylation This produced a map of H3 acetylation and methylation in 125
cauliflower inflorescences (Supplemental Tab S1) Most of the identified H3 126
modifications and their combinations are consistent with those in Arabidopsis (Johnson 127
et al 2004 Zhang et al 2007) suggesting a high conservation of the histone 128
modifications 129
130
H3K36ac is a new modification in Arabidopsis 131
We identified H3K36ac as a novel H3 modification in plants (Supplemental Tab S1) 132
H3K36ac was found in two independent experiments using different enzymes 133
(Chymotrypsin and ArgC) The confidence for the localization of the modification site 134
was higher than 90 The MSMS spectrum of the ArgC-digested histone H3 shown in 135
Figure 1A details the c and z fragmentation ions for the parent peptide with an observed 136
mass of mz 15048468 The accurate mass of the recorded parent ion was consistent 137
with peptide acetylation (ΔM = 420106 Da) and not tri-methylation 138
(ΔM = 420470 Da) Importantly we detected H3K36 mono- di- and tri-methylation 139
on other H3 peptides confirming that this amino acid can be either methylated or 140
acetylated (Fig 1A Supplemental Fig S2 S3) 141

To validate and extend the mass spectrometry results a histone extract from 142
Arabidopsis inflorescences was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 143
probed with an anti-H3K36ac antibody The antibody was previously tested for 144
specificity in dot blots and proteinimmuno blots using modified and unmodified 145
peptides and validated for ChIP-seq (Morris et al 2007 Egelhofer et al 2011) The 146
antibody showed no cross-reactivity with eleven different tested acetylated histone 147
peptides (H2AK5ac H3K14ac H3K18ac H3K27ac H3K4ac H3K9ac H4K12ac 148
H4K16ac H4K581216ac H4K5ac H4K8ac) and many unmodified or methylated 149
histone peptides The positive signals for Arabidopsis histone extracts (Fig 2A) 150
confirmed the mass spectrometric identification of the H3K36ac modification in plants 151
Together proteomic and molecular methods support the identification of H3K36ac as a 152
novel histone modification in Brassicacea 153
154
H3K36ac is present in euchromatin 155
To establish the distribution of H3K36ac in the nucleus paraformaldehyde-fixed 156
Arabidopsis root-tip nuclei were immuno-stained using the anti-H3K36ac antibody 157
H3K36ac fluorescence signals were absent from nucleoli and DAPI-dense 158
chromocenters which are mostly comprised of centromeric and pericentromeric repeats 159
In contrast H3K36ac staining was observed in euchromatic regions (Fig 2B-E) 160
indicating that most H3K36ac is associated with less condensed gene-rich regions and 161
possibly active genes To test this prediction formaldehyde-crosslinked ChIP (X-ChIP) 162
was performed using anti-H3K36ac and anti-H3 antibodies Indeed H3K36ac levels 163
were high at the transcribed euchromatic ACTIN7 gene but low at the silent 164
heterochromatic Ta2 transposon (Fig 2F) The increased H3 signal at Ta2 is consistent 165

with earlier reports and might be related to the more compact chromatin structure in 166
heterochromatin (Rehrauer et al 2010 Shu et al 2012) Together these results suggest 167
that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189

enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236

11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386

To validate and extend the mass spectrometry results a histone extract from 142
Arabidopsis inflorescences was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 143
probed with an anti-H3K36ac antibody The antibody was previously tested for 144
specificity in dot blots and proteinimmuno blots using modified and unmodified 145
peptides and validated for ChIP-seq (Morris et al 2007 Egelhofer et al 2011) The 146
antibody showed no cross-reactivity with eleven different tested acetylated histone 147
peptides (H2AK5ac H3K14ac H3K18ac H3K27ac H3K4ac H3K9ac H4K12ac 148
H4K16ac H4K581216ac H4K5ac H4K8ac) and many unmodified or methylated 149
histone peptides The positive signals for Arabidopsis histone extracts (Fig 2A) 150
confirmed the mass spectrometric identification of the H3K36ac modification in plants 151
Together proteomic and molecular methods support the identification of H3K36ac as a 152
novel histone modification in Brassicacea 153
154
H3K36ac is present in euchromatin 155
To establish the distribution of H3K36ac in the nucleus paraformaldehyde-fixed 156
Arabidopsis root-tip nuclei were immuno-stained using the anti-H3K36ac antibody 157
H3K36ac fluorescence signals were absent from nucleoli and DAPI-dense 158
chromocenters which are mostly comprised of centromeric and pericentromeric repeats 159
In contrast H3K36ac staining was observed in euchromatic regions (Fig 2B-E) 160
indicating that most H3K36ac is associated with less condensed gene-rich regions and 161
possibly active genes To test this prediction formaldehyde-crosslinked ChIP (X-ChIP) 162
was performed using anti-H3K36ac and anti-H3 antibodies Indeed H3K36ac levels 163
were high at the transcribed euchromatic ACTIN7 gene but low at the silent 164
heterochromatic Ta2 transposon (Fig 2F) The increased H3 signal at Ta2 is consistent 165

with earlier reports and might be related to the more compact chromatin structure in 166
heterochromatin (Rehrauer et al 2010 Shu et al 2012) Together these results suggest 167
that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189

9
enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386
Experimental procedures 387
Plant material 388
The following Arabidopsis thaliana lines were previously described HDA19-RNAi1 389

that H3K36ac is present on active genes in euchromatin but not on heterochromatic loci 168
169
H3K36ac is associated with the first two nucleosomes of transcriptionally active 170
genes 171
We performed a native ChIP-seq (N-ChIP-seq) experiment to determine the genome-172
wide localization of H3K36ac at mono-nucleosome resolution (Supplemental Tab S2) 173
To control for nucleosome density H3K36ac reads were normalized to the anti-H3 read 174
counts After mapping to the five Arabidopsis chromosomes the highest enrichment 175
was found along chromosome arms In contrast pericentromeric heterochromatic 176
regions were considerably less enriched (Supplemental Fig S4) Furthermore the 177
H3K36ac coverage profile was similar to the gene density distribution consistent with 178
an enrichment of H3K36ac at or near genes These results support the H3K36ac 179
immunolocalisation data To explore the distribution of H3K36ac along gene bodies in 180
more detail averaged coverage profiles were plotted around transcriptional start sites 181
(TSS) and transcriptional termination sites (TTS) for all annotated gene models (Fig 182
3A) The results show a strong enrichment of H3K36ac between 35 bp and 516 bp 183
downstream of the TSS (positions with 50 of maximal peak height) In contrast 184
H3K36ac was not enriched in promoter regions in gene bodies beyond the first 500 bp 185
distal to the TSS or around transcriptional termination sites (TTS) 186
Next we tested whether the width of the H3K36ac peak depended on gene 187
length by plotting averaged H3K36ac profiles separately for bins of increasing gene 188
length (Fig 3B) This analysis revealed that position shape and width of the H3K36ac 189

9
enrichment peak are independent of gene length and that H3K36ac covered only about 190
480 bp downstream of the TSS This invariant pattern of the H3K36ac modification 191
allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386
Experimental procedures 387
Plant material 388
The following Arabidopsis thaliana lines were previously described HDA19-RNAi1 389

Illumina reads were mapped to the Arabidopsis reference TAIR10 genome using 476
bowtie2 (version 21) (Langmead et al 2012) SAM file output from bowtie was 477
converted to BAM format using SAMTOOLS (version 14) (Li et al 2009) and 478
imported into R (version 2152) (httpwwwR-projectorg) using functions from the 479
Rsamtools package All subsequent analysis was performed in R Identical reads present 480
more than 25 times were considered as PCR artifacts and filtered out using the 481
filterDuplReads function from package HtSeqTools Replicates were pooled samples 482
normalization to identical sequencing depth and H3K36ac signals were normalized to 483
histone signals to control for variable nucleosome density using functions from package 484
nucleR (Flores et al 2011) H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and H2AZ data were 485

allowed the calculation of a gene-specific H3K36ac score as the mean H3K36ac signal 192
within a TSS-distal 35 bp to 516 bp window The H3K36ac score has a bimodal 193
distribution (Fig 3C) that allowed to separate 16431 genes with low H3K36ac (score 194
lt=27) from 10920 genes with high H3K36ac (score gt27) To avoid confounding effects 195
of alternative transcripts only genes with a single annotated transcript were included in 196
this analysis Since H3K36ac is found at genes and the differential enrichment of this 197
modification allows the clear distinction of two gene classes we asked if its presence is 198
a binary signal for transcription Globally genes with higher H3K36ac scores had also 199
higher mRNA levels (Fig 3D) Only active but not inactive genes had the pronounced 200
H3K36ac peak near the TSS (Fig 3E) However the relationship between H3K36ac 201
and transcript levels is not linear but strongly sigmoidal (red trend line in Supplemental 202
Fig S5) indicating that H3K36ac levels are only weakly proportional to transcription 203
rate and instead are a qualitative indicator of transcriptional activity This interpretation 204
is consistent with the bimodal distribution of H3K36ac scores (Fig 3C) 205
Since H3K36ac is associated with gene activity we analyzed its relationship to 206
other chromatin marks associated with transcription namely H3K4me3 H3K36me2 207
H3K36me3 and the histone variant H2AZ Similar to H3K36ac position shape and 208
width of the H3K4me3 and H2AZ enrichment peaks are independent of gene length 209
(Supplemental Fig S6) In contrast H3K36me3 and H3K36me2 profiles depend 210
strongly on gene length Next averaged H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 and 211
H2AZ profiles were plotted separately for five bins of increasing H3K36ac scores All 212
tested chromatin marks showed a positive correlation with H3K36ac but the correlation 213

10
with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234
235
H3K36ac depends on GCN5 in Arabidopsis 236
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
11
Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
12
methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386
Experimental procedures 387

with H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 was most pronounced (Supplemental Fig S7) 214
H3K4me3 H3K36me3 and H2AZ are restricted to the 5rsquo-end of genes while 215
H3K36me2 increases towards the 3rsquo-end To better compare peak positions averaged 216
profiles for the analyzed marks were plotted together (Fig 4) This analysis revealed 217
that H3K36ac and H2AZ are localized closest to the TSS and likely associated with 218
transcription initiation and the transition to transcription elongation (H3K36ac peaks at 219
199 bp and H2AZ at 252 bp distal to the TSS) Downstream of the H2AZ peak 220
H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (peaks at 368 bp and 629 bp respectively) become more 221
dominating until H3K36me2 which is associated with elongating RNA Polymerase II 222
(Pol II) (Oh et al 2008) increases towards the 3rsquo-end of genes 223
Profiling of H3K36ac specifically along active genes showed the highest 224
enrichment around the TSS irrespective of feature length (Fig 5A B) consistent with 225
the distribution obtained when all genes were used (Fig 3A) Enrichment of 226
H3K36me3 on the other hand also reaches a peak right after the TSS but then extends 227
further towards the 3rsquo-end (Fig 5C D) Interestingly we observed that the enrichment 228
of H3K36me3 along the whole gene body increased with gene length (Fig 5D) This is 229
consistent with the model that H3K36me3 is associated with Pol II processivity (Oh et 230
al 2008) 231
Together H3K36ac is most enriched on +1 and +2 nucleosomes of the TSS of 232
transcriptionally active genes and correlates with H3K4me3 H3K36me2 H3K36me3 233
and the histone variant H2AZ 234

that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260

methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

13
in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

14
MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

16
gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380
wwwplantphysiolorgon July 4 2018 - Published by Downloaded from Copyright copy 2016 American Society of Plant Biologists All rights reserved
17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

Histone acetylation is established by HATs Arabidopsis has 12 different HAT genes 237
that are grouped into four classes (Pandey et al 2002) of which GCN5 (GENERAL 238
CONTROL NON DEREPRESSIBLE PROTEIN 5) is highly expressed in most 239
sporophytic tissues (Zimmermann et al 2004) In yeast GCN5 acetylates H3K14 (Roth 240
et al 2001) Because GCN5 is conserved in plants and because the H3 sequences 241
around K14 and K36 are similar (STGGK14AP versus STGGVK36KP) we tested if 242
Arabidopsis GCN5 acetylates H3K36 using the gcn5-1 mutant for X-ChIP assays The 243
TSS regions of two genes with high H3K36ac levels were analyzed using qPCR Their 244
H3K36ac levels were reduced more than five-fold in gcn5-1 (Fig 6A) indicating that 245
GCN5 is required for full H3K36 acetylation in vivo but that other HATs can also 246
acetylate H3K36 explaining the residual H3K36ac in gcn5-1 247
To test whether GCN5 can directly acetylate H3K36 in vitro HAT assays were 248
performed using amino-terminal H3 fragments and purified recombinant GST and GST-249
GCN5 Acetylated histone fragments were probed with anti-H3K36ac antibody A 250
strong signal was obtained when using GCN5 enzyme while no signal was obtained 251
with control GST or H3 alone (Fig 6B) The in vivo and in vitro assays therefore 252
establish Arabidopsis GCN5 as an H3K36 acetyl transferase and strongly suggest that it 253
is the main enzyme depositing H3K36ac in vivo 254
255
Competing modifications targeting H3K36 256
H3K36 can also be mono- di- or tri- methylated at its ɛ-amino group The Arabidopsis 257
histone lysine methyltransferase SET DOMAIN GROUP 8 (SDG 8) deposits di- and tri-258
methylation on H3K36 (Zhao et al 2005 Xu et al 2008) Considering that GNC5 and 259
SDG8 both modify H3K36 we tested the mechanistic dependency of acetylation and 260

methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314

Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

methylation at H3K36 We performed X-ChIP-seq using the anti-H3K36ac antibody in 261
sdg8-2 and an anti-H3K36me3 antibody in gcn5-1 because in our experience X-ChIP is 262
more robust than N-ChIP when comparing genotypes Crosstalk between GCN5 and 263
SDG8 could result in reciprocal effects on H3K36ac and H3K36me3 enrichments 264
respectively To avoid confounding effects from inactive genes we restricted our 265
analysis to active protein-coding genes (see Methods) Globally H3K36ac levels in 266
genes increased in sdg8-2 in particular close to the TSS (Fig 7A) In addition 267
H3K36ac increased close to the TTS of genes in which its levels are normally low 268
Similarly enrichment of H3K36me3 increased in gcn5-1 and was highest in the center 269
of genes (Fig 7B) This increase in enrichment of acetylation and methylation in sdg8-2 270
and gcn5-1 respectively indicates that both modifications affect each other Because 271
the differences were found in distinct regions along gene bodies this crosstalk probably 272
does not reflect a direct competition for the H3K36 but an indirect functional repressive 273
interaction between the acetylation and methylation enzymes 274
275
HDA19 but not HDA6 affects H3K36ac levels 276
Eighteen different HDACs have been identified in Arabidopsis and grouped into three 277
different classes (Pandey et al 2002) To identify HDACs responsible for H3K36 278
deacetylation we tested the possible involvement of HDA6 and HDA19 which are two 279
major Arabidopsis HDACs HDA6 removes acetyl groups from H3K9ac H3K14ac 280
H3K18ac H3K23ac H3K27ac H4K5ac H4K8ac and H4K12ac (reviewed in 281
(Hollender et al 2008)) To test if HDA6 deacetylates H3K36ac we performed X-ChIP 282
assays with wild-type hda6-1 and 35SHDA6-FLAG plants using two genes with high 283
H3K36ac levels in wild type No significant differences of H3K36ac levels were found 284

in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314

Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386
Experimental procedures 387
Plant material 388
The following Arabidopsis thaliana lines were previously described HDA19-RNAi1 389
(Zhou et al 2005) gcn5-1 (Vlachonasios et al 2003) 35SFlag-HDA6 (Earley et al 390
2006) hda6-1 (Aufsatz et al 2002) and sdg8-2 (Xu et al 2008) The HDA19-RNAi1 391
was shown to have no off-target effects on the close HDA19 homolog HDA6 (Zhou et 392
al 2005 Mehdi et al 2015) Seeds were sown on 05times basal salts Murashige and 393
Skoog (MS) medium (Duchefa Haarlem The Netherlands) stratified at 4degC for one 394
day and then transferred to growth chambers for germination at 20degC under long-day 395
(LD 16 h light) photoperiods for ten days The seedlings were transferred to pots 396
containing soil and cultivated in growth chambers under LD conditions Tobacco 397
(Nicotiana tabacum) wheat (Triticum aestivum) and rice (Oryza sativa) were grown in 398
a greenhouse at 22degC in LD Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) was obtained from a local 399
supermarket Norway spruce (Picea abies) needles were collected from an 400
approximately 15-years-old wild-grown tree in a forest close to Uppsala (Sweden) 401

in HDA6 loss-of-function or overexpressing plants (Supplemental Fig S8) suggesting 285
that HDA6 does not deacetylate H3K36 in vivo at least at these two loci In contrast a 286
considerable increase of H3K36ac levels was found for the same genes in an HDA19 287
RNAi line (Fig 8) indicating that HDA19 is one of the Arabidopsis HDACs that 288
deacetylase H3K36ac 289
290
H3K36ac is a conserved histone modification in plants 291
Histones are among the most highly conserved eukaryotic proteins and K36 is found in 292
H3 of mouse yeast and plants such as Arabidopsis tobacco wheat rice and Norway 293
spruce (Fig 9A) To test if H3K36ac exists only in Brassicaceae or also in other plant 294
species histones were extracted from tobacco rice wheat and spruce as representatives 295
of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous angiosperms as well as gymnosperms The 296
presence of H3K36ac was analyzed using protein immunoblotting with anti-H3K36ac 297
antibody A distinct H3K36ac band was visible in all histone preparations (Fig 9B) 298
indicating that H3K36ac is a highly conserved modification in seed plants and likely has 299
a conserved biological function 300
To test whether the H3K36ac enrichment on active genes is conserved in other 301
plant species X-ChIP was performed using Norway spruce cell culture Two loci with 302
low expression (MA_16054g0010 and the EnSpm transposon-like locus MA_10270349) 303
and two loci with high expression (MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010) were 304
selected for ChIP analysis (Supplemental Fig S9) using two primer sets for each gene ndash 305
one set probing a region upstream of the transcriptional unit and the other set probing a 306
region downstream of the TSS in the gene body near the start codon Similar to the 307
results in Arabidopsis strong H3K36ac ChIP signals were present at the active genes 308

MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

15
In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

17
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
386

MA_491379g0010 and MA_94077g0010 but no or only weak signals were present at 309
the silent or lowly expressed genes (Fig 9C) In addition H3K36ac was much higher 310
enriched distal of the TSS than in the promoter region Together these results suggest 311
that H3K36ac is present in the 5-region of active genes in the angiosperm Arabidopsis 312
and the gymnosperm Norway spruce revealing a wide conservation of this modification 313
among seed plants 314
315
Discussion 316
Applying the sensitive and specific CIDETD LC-MSMS method (Syka et al 2004) to 317
histone extracts from cauliflower inflorescences we have identified a novel H3 318
acetylation on K36 in plants CIDETD LC-MSMS allows sequencing of long highly 319
charged peptides (gt20 aa) and even of intact proteins and has been successfully used 320
already to determine histone PTMs (Taverna et al 2007 Xiong et al 2010 Jufvas et 321
al 2011) Our analysis confirmed most of the known Arabidopsis lysine acetylation 322
and methylation modifications We did not detect phosphorylated H3 peptides which 323
require phospho-peptide enrichment during histone extraction (Zhang et al 2007) 324
However our approach identified previously unreported plant histone modifications 325
including H3K36ac that we analyzed in more detail A complete list of the identified H3 326
post-translational modification is reported in Supplemental Table S1 327
H3K36ac was previously found in yeast Tetrahymena and mammals (Morris et 328
al 2007) Using a high-specificity antibody we confirmed the MSMS identification of 329
H3K36ac in plants In addition to cauliflower H3K36ac was also found in several other 330
seed plants The presence of H3K36ac in yeast ciliates animals and plants suggests an 331
evolutionary conserved function 332

In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

In Arabidopsis H3K36ac is associated with euchromatin and excluded from 333
heterochromatic chromocenters It is enriched within the first 500 bp and particularly at 334
+1 and +2 nucleosomes distal to the TSS of transcriptionally active genes irrespective 335
of their lengths This presence of H3K36ac distal to the TSS of Arabidopsis genes is in 336
contrast to yeast in which H3K36ac is highest at promoters but mostly absent from 337
transcribed regions (Morris et al 2007) The restriction of H3K36ac to the 5rsquo-end of 338
genes and the positive correlation with gene expression suggests that it is associated 339
with the early phase of transcription but not with elongation Although H3K36ac marks 340
active genes its levels are not significantly correlated with transcription rates H3K36ac 341
rather marks transcribed genes in a qualitative manner with full acetylation reached 342
even at moderate transcription rates 343
The peak of H3K36ac enrichment in Arabidopsis coincided well with the H2AZ 344
peak at the 5rsquo-end of gene bodies It is not clear whether the different width of the 345
H2AZ and H3K36ac peaks is genuine or the result of the different ChIP methods in our 346
study and the report for H2AZ (Zilberman et al 2008) The coincidence of H2AZ and 347
H3K36ac suggests that nucleosomes in which H3K36 is acetylated often contain the 348
histone variant H2AZ It remains to be established however whether incorporation or 349
presence of H2AZ favors acetylation of H3K36 andor H3K36ac favors H2AZ 350
incorporation Similar to H3K36ac and H2AZ H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 peak at 5rsquo-351
ends of transcriptionally active genes In the case of H3K4me3 the peak width is 352
independent of gene length but the peak summit is shifted to the TTS The H3K36me3 353
peak is shifted even further towards the 3rsquo-end than the H3K4me3 peak The extension 354
of the H3K36me3 peak strongly depends on gene length H3K36me2 increases 355
downstream of the H3K36me3 peak and reaches its maximum only at the 3rsquo-end The 356

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

gradient of H3K36ac H2AZ H3K4me3 H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 along transcribed 357
genes provides a spatial map of histone modifications along transcription units 358
Histone acetylation is regulated by antagonistic HAT and HDAC activities The 359
Arabidopsis HAT GCN5 acetylates H3K36 in vitro and is necessary to achieve full 360
H3K36ac levels in vivo These results are consistent with the reported activity of GCN5 361
in yeast (Morris et al 2007) supporting a conserved mechanism for H3K36 acetylation 362
in eukaryotes although as described above the H3K36ac patterns differ between yeast 363
and plants (Morris et al 2007) 364
The Arabidopsis genome encodes 18 HDAC proteins that are grouped into three 365
main subfamilies (RPD3 HD2 and SIR2 family) (Pandey et al 2002) We found that 366
H3K36ac was increased in HDA19 RNAi lines suggesting that HDA19 is required for 367
H3K36ac homeostasis on target genes in vivo It remains to be established whether 368
other HDACs also modulate H3K36ac levels 369
Despite the evolutionary conservation of H3K36 modifications animals and 370
yeast seem to use them in functionally different mechanisms than plants In animals and 371
yeast H3K36me3 is associated with transcriptional elongation peaking towards the 3rsquo-372
end and H3K36ac in yeast is restricted to promoters In plants H3K36me3 peaks in the 373
5rsquo-half of the gene and H3K36ac is restricted to an approximately 480 bp distal to the 374
TSS In Arabidopsis H3K36ac and H3K36me3 are found in overlapping regions 375
downstream of the TSS Our genome-wide analysis revealed a negative crosstalk 376
between the HAT GCN5 and the HKMT SDG8 This resulted in increased H3K36ac 377
levels when H3K36me3 is reduced and vice versa the distinct spatial patterns of 378
H3K36ac and H3K36me3 were however not affected Further work will be required to 379
understand the mechanistic basis for this crosstalk It is tempting to speculate that 380

acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385

Experimental procedures 387
Plant material 388
The following Arabidopsis thaliana lines were previously described HDA19-RNAi1 389
(Zhou et al 2005) gcn5-1 (Vlachonasios et al 2003) 35SFlag-HDA6 (Earley et al 390
2006) hda6-1 (Aufsatz et al 2002) and sdg8-2 (Xu et al 2008) The HDA19-RNAi1 391
was shown to have no off-target effects on the close HDA19 homolog HDA6 (Zhou et 392
al 2005 Mehdi et al 2015) Seeds were sown on 05times basal salts Murashige and 393
Skoog (MS) medium (Duchefa Haarlem The Netherlands) stratified at 4degC for one 394
day and then transferred to growth chambers for germination at 20degC under long-day 395
(LD 16 h light) photoperiods for ten days The seedlings were transferred to pots 396
containing soil and cultivated in growth chambers under LD conditions Tobacco 397
(Nicotiana tabacum) wheat (Triticum aestivum) and rice (Oryza sativa) were grown in 398
a greenhouse at 22degC in LD Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) was obtained from a local 399
supermarket Norway spruce (Picea abies) needles were collected from an 400
approximately 15-years-old wild-grown tree in a forest close to Uppsala (Sweden) 401
located at 5981ordm N 1766ordm E For ChIP and RT-qPCR in Norway spruce embryogenic 402
calli (line 111811) derived from a zygotic embryo were used (von Arnold et al 403

acetylation and methylation at H3K36 form a molecular switch in which one of the two 381
dominates However since nucleosomes have two H3 molecules concomitant 382
acetylation and methylation at H3K36 in the same nucleosome are possible It remains 383
to be shown whether such nucleosomes with asymmetrical K36 modifications do indeed 384
exist 385
