UbE2E1/UbcH6 is an E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme that is regulated by USP7. We identified UbE2E1 as a novel component of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), the E3 ligase complex responsible for histone H2A ubiquitination and gene silencing. We demonstrate that UbE2E1 is critical for the mono-ubiquitination of H2A at residue K119 (uH2AK119) through its association with the PRC1 complex. UbE2E1 interacts with PRC1 subunits including Ring1A and Ring1B. Overexpression of UbE2E1 results in increased levels of uH2AK119 whereas overexpression of catalytically inactive UbE2E1C131A or UbE2E1 knockdown results in decreased levels of uH2AK119. The down-regulation of H2A ubiquitination by loss of function of UbE2E1 is correlated with alleviated p16INK4a promoter repression and induced growth inhibition in HCT116 cells. These results are specific to UbE2E1 as knockdown of UbE2D E2s does not show any effect on uH2AK119. We extended the UbE2E1 regulation of ubiquitinated H2AK119 to USP7 and showed that USP7 is also a key regulator for mono-ubiquitination at H2AK119 as both knockdown and deletion of USP7 results in decreased levels of uH2AK119. This study reveals that UbE2E1 is an in vivo E2 for the PRC1 ligase complex and thus plays an important role in the regulation of H2AK119 mono-ubiquitination.
