Heme is required for survival of all cells, and in most eukaryotes, is produced
through a series of eight enzymatic reactions. Although heme production is
critical for many cellular processes, how it is coupled to cellular
differentiation is unknown. Here, using zebrafish, murine, and human models, we
show that erythropoietin (EPO) signaling, together with the GATA1 transcriptional
target, AKAP10, regulates heme biosynthesis during erythropoiesis at the outer
mitochondrial membrane. This integrated pathway culminates with the direct
phosphorylation of the crucial heme biosynthetic enzyme, ferrochelatase (FECH) by
protein kinase A (PKA). Biochemical, pharmacological, and genetic inhibition of
this signaling pathway result in a block in hemoglobin production and concomitant
intracellular accumulation of protoporphyrin intermediates. Broadly, our results
implicate aberrant PKA signaling in the pathogenesis of hematologic diseases. We
propose a unifying model in which the erythroid transcriptional program works in
concert with post-translational mechanisms to regulate heme metabolism during
normal development.
