Inherited DNA methylation primes the establishment of accessible chromatin during genome activation


ABSTRACT: For animals, epigenetic modifications can be globally or partially inherited from gametes after fertilization, but the mechanism underlying how the inherited epigenetic signatures affect transcriptional regulation during zygotic genome activation (ZGA) remains poorly understood. Here, we performed genome-wide profiling of chromatin accessibility during zebrafish ZGA, which is closely related to zygotic transcriptional regulation. The locations of the accessible chromatin at promoters were precisely primed by the enrichment of unmethylated CpGs that were fully inherited from gametes. On the other hand, distal regions with high methylation levels that were inherited from the sperm facilitated the binding of DNA methylation-preferred transcription factors, such as pou5f3 and nanog, which contributed to the establishment of accessible chromatin at these loci. Our results demonstrate a model whereby inherited DNA methylation signatures from gametes prime the establishment of accessible chromatin during zebrafish ZGA through two distinct mechanisms.
