A Global Expression Switch Marks Pachytene Initiation during Mouse Male Meiosis.

ABSTRACT: Male spermatogenesis is an essential and complex process necessary to gain totipotency and allow a whole new organism to develop upon fertilization. While single-gene based studies have provided insights into the mechanisms underlying spermatogenesis, detailed global profiling of all the key meiotic stages is required to fully define these processes. Here, by isolating highly enriched mouse meiotic cell populations, we have generated a comprehensive gene expression atlas of mammalian meiosis. Our data define unique signatures for the specific stages of meiosis, including global chromosome X inactivation and reactivation. The data also reveal profound switches in global gene expression at the initiation of pachynema that are reminiscent of the commitment to meiosis observed in budding yeast. Overall, this meiotic atlas provides an exhaustive blueprint and resource for mammalian gametogenesis and meiosis.

A global expression switch marks pachytene initiation during mouse male meiosis

Project description:Male spermatogenesis is an essential and complex developmental process with the purpose to gain totipotency and allow a whole new organism to develop upon fertilization. While single-gene based studies have provided insights into the mechanisms at work, global profiling is clearly required to deconvolute these processes. Here, by isolating highly enriched mouse meiotic cell populations, we report a comprehensive gene expression map of mammalian meiosis. Our data reveal in unique details the dynamic of fundamental expression patterns such as the global chromosome X inactivation and reactivation allowing to precisely dissect this unique process. It also reveals a rapid global expression switch at the initiation of the long pachytene stage reminiscent and coincident with the commitment to meiosis observed in budding yeast. Overall, this meiotic atlas provides an exhaustive blueprint and resource for deconvoluting mammalian gametogenesis and meiosis.

Pachytene piRNAs govern male meiosis I by spatial restriction of gene expression (piRNA)

Project description:Pachytene piRNAs control male fertility across metazoans, yet mechanisms through which they govern meiosis I in pachytene remain unclear. We demonstrate, in C. elegans, that homolog pairing, and crossover formation are compromised in the absence of piRNA function. We identify several protein coding genes as targets of piRNAs including Polo like kinase 3 (PLK-). Pachytene piRNAs spatially restrict and exclude PLK-3 expression from meiosis I. Expansion of PLK-3 expression into the pachytene region, upon loss of piRNAs, is reflected in meiotic defects, which are partially rescued by removal of ectopic PLK-3. Pachytene piRNAs regulate PLK-3 through both translational repression and post-transcriptional degradation establishing the spatiotemporal control of gene expression. Given the conserved role of pachytene piRNAs, we propose that these mechanisms may be applicable to mammals.
