Project description:DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are introduced in meiosis to initiate recombination and to generate crossovers, the reciprocal exchanges of genetic material between parental chromosomes. Here we present the first high-resolution map of meiotic DSBs in individual human genomes. Comparing DSB maps between individuals shows that along with DNA binding by PRDM9, additional factors dictate the efficiency of DSB formation. Furthermore, we find that in human males, the frequency of DSB formation is the primary determinant of crossover rate. Patterns of sequence polymorphisms around meiotic DSB hotspots provide evidence for both GC-biased gene conversion and for a mutagenic role of DSB repair and/or recombination. Finally, we provide compelling evidence that the aberrant repair of meiotic DSBs is a driver of human genomic disorders. Detection of meiotic double strand breaks in testis of several human male individuals.

Project description:During sexual reproduction half of the genetic material is deposited in gametes and a complete set of chromosomes is restored upon fertilisation. Reduction of the genetic information prior gametogenesis occurs in meiosis where crossovers (COs) between homologous chromosomes secure an exchange of their genetic information. COs are not evenly distributed along chromosomes and are suppressed in chromosomal regions encompassing compact, hypermethylated centromeric and pericentromeric DNA. Therefore, it has been postulated that DNA hypermethylation is inhibitory to COs. Here by analysing meiotic recombination in mutant plants with hypomethylated DNA we observed unexpected and counterintuitive effects of the DNA methylation losses on COs distribution, further promoting recombination in the naturally hypomethylated euchromatic chromosome arms, while inhibiting it in heterochromatic regions encompassing centromeric and pericentromeric hypermethylated DNA. Importantly, the total number of COs was not affected, implying that the loss of DNA methylation only led to a global redistribution of COs along chromosomes. To determine by which mechanisms altered levels of DNA methylation influenced recombination, namely whether this occurred directly in cis or indirectly in trans by changing expression of genes encoding recombination components, we analysed COs distribution in WT lines with randomly scattered and well mapped hypomethylated chromosomal segments. Results of these experiments, supported by expression profiling data, suggest that DNA methylation affects meiotic recombination in cis. As DNA methylation is subjected to significant variation even within a single species, our results implicate that it could influence evolution of plant genomes through the control of meiotic recombination. 2 samples: Col, epiRIL12, with 3 replicates each

Project description:The genomic landscape of recombination plays an essential role in evolution. Patterns of recombination are highly variable along chromosomes, between sexes, individuals, populations, and species. In many eukaryotes, recombination rates are elevated in sub-telomeric regions and drastically reduced near centromeres, resulting in large low-recombining (LR) regions. The processes of recombination are influenced by genetic factors, such as different alleles of genes involved in meiosis and chromatin structure, as well as external environmental stimuli like temperature and overall stress. In this work, we focused on the genomic landscapes of recombination in a collection of 916 rye (Secale cereale) individuals. By analysing population structure among individuals of different domestication status and geographic origin, we detected high levels of admixture, reflecting the reproductive biology of a self-incompatible, wind-pollinating grass species. We then analysed patterns of recombination in overlapping subpopulations, which revealed substantial variation in the physical size of LR regions, with a tendency for larger LR regions in domesticated subpopulations. Genome-wide association scans (GWAS) for LR region size revealed a major quantitative-trait-locus (QTL) at which, among 18 annotated genes, an ortholog of histone H4 acetyltransferase ESA1 was located. Rye individuals belonging to domesticated subpopulations showed increased synaptonemal complex length, but no difference in crossover frequency, indicating that only the recombination landscape is different. Furthermore, the genomic region harbouring rye ScESA1 showed moderate patterns of selection in domesticated subpopulations, suggesting that larger LR regions were indirectly selected for during domestication to achieve more homogeneous populations for agricultural use.

Project description:300,000 SNPs genotyped (Illumina CytoSNP12v2 array) in a family with unexplained inherited kidney disease. Analysed using parametric and Combinatorial Conflicting Homozygosity analysis, as described in Levine et al. BMC Genomics 2015. Abstract: Background: The ability to identify regions of the genome inherited with a dominant trait in one or more families has become increasingly valuable with the wide availability of next generationhigh throughput sequencing technology. While a number of methods exist for mapping of homozygous variants segregating with recessive traits in consanguineous families, dominant conditions are conventionally analysed by by linkage analysis, which requires computationally demanding haplotype reconstruction from marker genotypes and, even using advanced parallel approximation implementations, can take substantial time. In addition, linkage analysis lacks sensitivity in the presence of phenocopies (individuals sharing the trait but not the genetic variant responsible). Combinatorial Conflicting Homozygosity (CCH) analysis uses bi-allelic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker genotypes to identify genetic loci within which consecutive markers are not homozygous for different alleles. This allows inference of identical by descent (IBD) inheritance of a haplotype among a set or subsets of related or unrelated individuals. Results: A single genome-wide conflicting homozygosity analysis takes <3 seconds and parallelisation permits multiple combinations of subsets of individuals to be analysed quickly. Analysis of unrelated individuals demonstrated that in the absence of IBD inheritance, runs of no- CH exceeding 4 cM are not observed. At this threshold, CCH is >97% sensitive and specific for IBD regions within a pedigree exceeding this length and was able to identify the locus responsible for a dominantly inherited kidney disease in a Turkish Cypriot family in which 6 six out 17 affected individuals were phenocopies. It also revealed shared ancestry at the disease-linked locus among affected individuals from two different Cypriot populations. Conclusions: CCH does not require computationally demanding haplotype reconstruction and can detect regions of shared inheritance of a haplotype among subsets of related or unrelated individuals directly from SNP genotype data. In contrast to parametric linkage allowing for phenocopies, CCH directly provides the exact number and identity of individuals sharing each locus. CCH can also identify regions of shared ancestry among ostensibly unrelated individuals who share a trait. CCH is implemented in Python and is freely available (as source code) for download at http://sourceforge.net/projects/cchsnp/.

Project description:Genetic recombination generates novel trait combinations, and understanding how recombination is distributed across the genome is key to modern genetics. The PRDM9 protein defines recombination hotspots; however, megabase-scale recombination patterning is independent of PRDM9. The single round of DNA replication, which precedes recombination in meiosis, may establish these patterns; therefore, we devised an approach to study meiotic replication that includes robust and sensitive mapping of replication origins. We find that meiotic DNA replication is distinct; reduced origin firing slows replication in meiosis, and a distinctive replication pattern in human males underlies the subtelomeric increase in recombination. We detected a robust correlation between replication and both contemporary and historical recombination and found that replication origin density coupled with chromosome size determines the recombination potential of individual chromosomes. Our findings and methods have implications for understanding the mechanisms underlying DNA replication, genetic recombination, and the landscape of mammalian germline variation.

Project description:Orderly segregation of chromosomes during meiosis requires that crossovers form between homologous chromosomes by recombination. Programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) initiate meiotic recombination. We identify ANKRD31 as a critical component of complexes of DSB-promoting proteins which assemble on meiotic chromosome axes. Genome-wide, ANKRD31 deficiency causes delayed recombination initiation. In addition, loss of ANKRD31 alters DSB distribution owing to reduced selectivity for sites that normally attract DSBs. Strikingly, ANKRD31 deficiency also abolishes uniquely high rates of recombination that normally characterize pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) of X and Y chromosomes. Consequently, sex chromosomes do not form crossovers leading to chromosome segregation failure in ANKRD31-deficient spermatocytes. These defects are accompanied by a genome-wide delay in assembling DSB-promoting proteins on axes and a loss of a pecialized PAR-axis domain that is highly enriched for DSB-promoting proteins. Thus, we propose a model for spatiotemporal patterning of recombination by ANKRD31-dependent control of axis-associated complexes of DSB-promoting proteins.

Project description:Little is known about the genetic divergence in the chromosomal regions with domesticated and non-domesticated genes. The objective of our study is to examine the effect of natural selection on shaping genetic diversity of chromosome region with domesticated and non-domesticated genes in barley using 110 SSR markers. Comparison of the genetic diversity loss between wild and cultivated barley for each chromosome showed that chromosome 5H had the highest divergence of 35.29%, followed by 3H, 7H, 4H, 2H, 6H. Diversity ratio was calculated as (diversity of wild type - diversity of cultivated type)/diversity of wild type×100%. It was found that diversity ratios of the domesticated regions on 5H, 1H and 7H were higher than those of non-domesticated regions. Diversity ratio of the domesticated region on 2H and 4H is similar to that of non-domesticated region. However, diversity ratio of the domesticated region on 3H is lower than that of non-domesticated region. Averaged diversity among six chromosomes in domesticated region was 33.73% difference between wild and cultivated barley, and was 27.56% difference in the non-domesticated region. The outcome of this study advances our understanding of the evolution of crop chromosomes.
