DNA N6-adenine methylation in 3-week-old Arabidopsis thaliana [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation on N6-adenine (6mA) has recently been found as a potentially new epigenetic mark in several unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes. However, its distribution patterns and potential functions in land plants, which are primary producers for most ecosystems, remain completely unknown. Here we report global profiling of 6mA sites at single-nucleotide resolution in the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana using single-molecule real-time sequencing. 6mA sites are widely distributed across the Arabidopsis genome and enriched over the pericentromeric heterochromatin regions. Nearly 30% of 6mA sites are present in gene bodies. Further analysis of 6mA methylome and RNA-sequencing data demonstrates that 6mA frequency positively correlates with the gene expression level in Arabidopsis. Consistently, histone variants associated with actively expressed genes interact with 6mA DNA. Our results uncover 6mA as a DNA mark associated with actively expressed genes in Arabidopsis, suggesting that 6mA serves as a novel epigenetic mark in land plants.

DNA N6-adenine methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana (methylation)

Project description:DNA methylation on N6-adenine (6mA), the most prevalent DNA modification in prokaryotes, has recently been found as a potentially new epigenetic mark in several unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes. However, the distribution patterns and potential functions of 6mA in land plants, which are primary producers for most ecosystems, remain completely unknown. Here we report global profiling of 6mA sites at single-nucleotide resolution in the genomes of Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia-0 (Col), using single-molecule real-time sequencing. DNA methylome analysis shows that 6mA sites are widely distributed across the Col genomes and enriched over the pericentromeric heterochromatin regions. Nearly 30% of 6mA sites are present in gene bodies with a trend of enrichment around the transcriptional start site. In addition to a common consensus 6mA site found in other eukaryotes, novel 6mA sites were found, indicating that 6mA could evolve new functions in land plants. Further analysis of 6mA methylome and RNA-sequencing data demonstrates that 6mA positively correlates with the gene expression level in Col plants. Consistently, DNA affinity chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry reveals that histone variants associated with actively expressed genes interact with 6mA DNA. Our results uncover 6mA as a DNA mark associated with actively expressed genes in Arabidopsis, indicating that 6mA could serve as a potentially novel epigenetic mark in land plants.

Identification of N6-adenine methylation in C. elegans DNA

Project description:In mammalian cells, DNA methylation on the 5th position of cytosine (5mC) plays an important role as an epigenetic mark. However, DNA methylation was considered to be absent in C. elegans because of the lack of detectable 5mC as well as homologs of the cytosine DNA methyltransferases. Here, using multiple approaches, we demonstrate the presence of adenine N6-methylation (6mA) in C. elegans DNA. We further demonstrate that this modification increases trans-generationally in a paradigm of epigenetic inheritance. Importantly, we identify a DNA demethylase, NMAD-1, and a potential DNA methyltransferase, DAMT-1, which regulate 6mA levels and crosstalk between methylation of histone H3K4me2 and 6mA, and control the epigenetic inheritance of phenotypes associated with the loss of the H3K4me2 demethylase spr-5. Together, these data identify a novel DNA modification in C. elegans and raise the exciting possibility that 6mA may be a carrier of heritable epigenetic information in eukaryotes.

Elucidation of DNA Methylation on N6-Adenine with Deep Learning

Project description:6mA-DNA-IP-Seq and sequencing of Arabidopsis. Our DeepM6A model was trained on the 6mA sites indentified by the single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing. To validate the robustness of the DeepM6A model, we applied an independent DNA-6mA-IP for A. thaliana, and predicted scores of peaks by using the trained DeepM6A model.

Identification and analysis of adenine N6-methylation sites in the rice genome

Project description:We report the application of 6mA IP-sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling in rice tissues of 12 days' leaf. By obtaining over 20 million high quality clean mapping sequenced reads from immunoprecipitated DNA, we generate genome-wide 6mA maps of rice 12 days' leaf. Using mass spectrometry and immunoprecipitation and validation with analysis of single-molecule real-time sequencing, we observed that about 0.2% of all adenines are 6mA-methylated in the rice genome. 6mA occurs most frequently at GAGG motifs and is mapped to about 20% of genes and 14% of transposable elements (TEs). In promoters, 6mA marks silent genes, but in bodies correlates with gene activity. 6mA overlaps with 5-methylated cytosine (5mC) at CG sites in gene bodies and is complementary to 5mC at CHH sites in TEs. We show that OsALKBH1 may be potentially involved in 6mA demethylation in rice. The results suggest that 6mA is complementary to 5mC as an epigenomic mark in rice and reinforces a distinct role for 6mA as a gene-expression associated epigenomic mark in eukaryotes.

N6-Methyldeoxyadenosine Marks Active Transcription Start Sites in Chlamydomonas

Project description:N6-methyldeoxyadenosine (6mA or m6A) is a DNA modification preserved in prokaryotes to eukaryotes. It is widespread in bacteria, and functions in DNA mismatch repair, chromosome segregation, and virulence regulation. In contrast, the distribution and function of 6mA in eukaryotes have been unclear. Here we present a comprehensive analysis of the 6mA landscape in the genome of Chlamydomonas using new sequencing approaches. We identified the 6mA modification in 84% of genes in Chlamydomonas. We found that 6mA mainly locates at ApT dinucleotides around transcription start sites (TSS) with a bimodal distribution, and appears to mark active genes. A periodic pattern of 6mA deposition was also observed at base resolution, which is associated with nucleosome distribution near the TSS, suggesting a possible role in nucleosome positioning. The new genome-wide mapping of 6mA and its unique distribution in the Chlamydomonas genome suggest potential regulatory roles of 6mA in gene expression in eukaryotic organisms. Multiple sequencing methods are developed to profile the distribution of 6mA in Chlamydomonas including MeDIP-Seq, enzyme-treated DNA-Seq, MNase-Seq and RNA-Seq.

Characterization of eukaryotic DNA N6-methyladenine by a highly sensitive restriction enzyme-assisted sequencing

Project description:To interrogate single-base resolution 6mA sites in the genome-wide, we develop DA-6mA-seq (DpnI-Assisted N6-methylAdenine sequencing), an optimized sequencing method taking advantage of restriction enzyme DpnI, which exclusively cleaves methylated adenine sites. We find DpnI also recognizes other sequence motifs besides the canonical GATC restriction sites, largely expanding the application range of this method. DA-6mA-seq requires less starting material and lower sequencing depth than previous methods, but achieves higher sensitivity, providing a good strategy to identify 6mA in large genome with a low abundance of 6mA. We rebuild the 6mA maps of Chlamydomonas by DA-6mA-seq and then apply this method to another two eukaryotic organisms, Plasmodium and Penicillium. Further analysis reveals most 6mA sites are symmetric at various sequence contexts, suggesting 6mA may function as a new heritable epigenetic mark in eukaryotes. A new sequencing method is developed to detect 6mA in eukaryotes

N6-Methyladenine DNA Methylation in Japonica and Indica Rice Genomes and Its Association with Gene Expression, Plant Development, and Stress Responses [BiSulfite-seq]

Project description:N6-Methyladenine (6mA) DNA methylation has recently been implicated as a potential new epigenetic marker in eukaryotes, including the dicot model Arabidopsis thaliana. However, the conservation and divergence of 6mA distribution patterns and functions in plants remain elusive. Here we report high-quality 6mA methylomes at single-nucleotide resolution in rice based on substantially improved genome sequences of two rice cultivars, Nipponbare (Nip; Japonica) and 93-11 (Indica). Analysis of 6mA genomic distribution and its association with transcription suggest that 6mA distribution and function is rather conserved between rice and Arabidopsis. We found that 6mA levels are positively correlated with the expression of key stress-related genes, which may be responsible for the difference in stress tolerance between Nip and 93-11. Moreover, we showed that mutations in DDM1 cause defects in plant growth and decreased 6mA level. Our results reveal that 6mA is a conserved DNA modification that is positively associated with gene expression and contributes to key agronomic traits in plants.
