H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 modification profiling in early zebrafish embryo

ABSTRACT: Multicellular organism requires concise gene regulation during ontogeny and epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation and histone modification, facilitate the concise regulation. The conservative reprogramming patterns of DNA methylation in vertebrates have been well described but knowledge of how histone modifications are passed on to zygote from gametes are limited and conservations of histone modifications are not clear.We profiled H3K4me3/H3K27me3 modifications in gametes and early embryos in zebrafish and find out that patterns in gene promoter regions have been largely set to either bivalent or active states in gametes and then passed on to zygote. Bivalent states are partially maintained and active states are restored to match sperm’s pattern. But repressive H3K27me3 modifications as well as stage specific modifications in promoter regions are discarded. Prior to zygotic genome activation, patterns of genes that initialize ZGA have been converted to non-repressive states to coordinate gene expression. Histone modification in hyper methylated promoter peaks are erased independent of DNA methylome reprogramming. Comparative analysis revealed that functions of bivalent and active genes passed on from gametes are conserved in vertebrates and gene age preferences by bivalent and active histone modifications are also confirmed in vertebrates.

H2A.Z landscapes and dual modifications in pluripotent and multipotent stem cells underlie complex genome regulatory functions

Project description:The histone variant H2A.Z has been implicated in nucleosome exchange, transcriptional activation and Polycomb repression. However, the relationships among these seemingly disparate functions remain obscure. We mapped H2A.Z genome-wide in mammalian ES cells and neural progenitors. H2A.Z is deposited promiscuously at promoters and enhancers, and correlates strongly with H3K4 methylation. Accordingly, H2A.Z is present at poised promoters with bivalent chromatin and at active promoters with H3K4 methylation, but is absent from stably repressed promoters that are specifically enriched for H3K27 trimethylation. We also characterized post-translational modification states of H2A.Z, including a novel species dually-modified by ubiquitination and acetylation that is enriched at bivalent chromatin. Our findings associate H2A.Z with functionally distinct genomic elements, and suggest that post-translational modifications may reconcile its contrasting locations and roles.

ChIP-seq analysis of hematopoetic progenitors

Project description:Bivalent chromatin refers to the simultaneous occurrence of transcription activation (H3K4me3)- and repression (H3K27me3)-associated histone modifications at gene promoters. This mark was first identified in ES cells and proposed to maintain genes in a poised state for future resolution to fully-active (H3K4me3-only) or fully-repressed (H3K27me3-only) states. In this report we rigorously test the poising hypothesis using a well-established developmental paradigm of hematopoietic stem cell differentiation to T lymphoid lineage committed cells. We show that bivalent chromatin is generated and resolved at specific stages of hematopoiesis. The epigenetic states from which it is generated and the states to which it is resolved vary with developmental stage, suggesting that bivalency serves different functions at each stage. Moreover, singly-marked genes do not transition to the opposing univalent state via a bivalent intermediate.

Histone H3.3 lysine 9 and 27 control repressive chromatin states at cryptic cis-regulatory elements and bivalent promoters in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:Histone modifications are associated with distinct transcriptional states, but it is unclear whether they instruct gene expression. To investigate this, we mutated histone H3.3 K9 and K27 residues in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Here, we find that H3.3K9 is essential for controlling specific distal intergenic regions and for proper H3K27me3 deposition at promoters. The H3.3K9A mutation resulted in decreased H3K9me3 at regions encompassing endogenous retroviruses and induced a gain of H3K27ac and nascent transcription. These changes in the chromatin environment unleashed cryptic enhancers, resulting in the activation of distinctive transcriptional programs and culminating in protein expression normally restricted to specialized immune cell types. The H3.3K27A mutant disrupted deposition and spreading of the repressive H3K27me3 mark, particularly impacting bivalent genes with higher basal level of H3.3 at promoters. Therefore, H3.3K9 and K27 crucially orchestrate repressive chromatin states at cis-regulatory elements and bivalent promoters, respectively, and instruct proper transcription in mESCs.

Oryza sativa egg, sperm, callus, pollen and seedling proteome

Project description:In angiosperms, female gamete differentiation, fertilization, and subsequent zygotic development occur in embryo sacs deeply embedded in the ovaries. Despite their importance in plant reproduction and development, how the egg cell is specialized, fuses with the sperm cell, and converts into an active zygote for early embryogenesis remains unclear. This lack of knowledge is partly attributable to the difficulty of direct analyses of gametes in angiosperms. In this study, proteins from egg and sperm cells obtained from Oryza sativa flowers were separated by one-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and globally identified by highly sensitive liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectroscopy. Proteome analyses were also conducted for seedlings, callus, and pollen grains to compare their protein expression profiles to those of gametes. Database was searched using Mascot software (ver.2.2.1, Matrix Science, MA, USA) with the following parameters. The fixed modification was propionasmide (Cys) and variable modification parameters were pyro-Glu, acetylation (protein N-terminus), and oxidation (Met). The maximum missed cleavage was set at 3 with a peptide mass tolerance of +/– 15 ppm. Peptide charges from +2 to +4 states and MS/MS tolerances of +/– 0.8 Da were allowed.

H4K20me3 co-localizes with activating histone modifications at transcriptionally dynamic regions in embryonic stem cells

Project description:Bivalent chromatin domains consisting of the activating histone 3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) and repressive histone 3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) histone modifications are enriched at developmental genes that are repressed in embryonic stem cells but active during differentiation. However, it is unknown whether another repressive histone modification, histone 4 lysine 20 trimethylation (H4K20me3), co-localizes with activating histone marks in ES cells. Here, we describe the previously uncharacterized coupling of the repressive H4K20me3 heterochromatin mark with the activating histone modifications H3K4me3 and histone 3 lysine 36 trimethylation (H3K36me3), and transcriptional machinery (RNA polymerase II; RNAPII), in ES cells. These newly described bivalent domains consisting of H3K4me3/H4K20me3 are predominantly located in intergenic regions and near transcriptional start sites of active genes, while H3K36me3/H4K20me3 are located in intergenic regions and within gene body regions of active genes. Global sequential ChIP, also termed reChIP-Seq, confirmed the simultaneous presence of H3K4me3 and H4K20me3 at the same genomic regions in ES cells. Genes containing H3K4me3/H4K20me3 exhibit decreased RNAPII pausing and are poised for deactivation of RNAPII binding during differentiation relative to H3K4me3 marked genes. An evaluation of transcription factor (TF) binding motif enrichment revealed that DNA sequence may play a role in shaping the landscape of these novel bivalent domains. Moreover, H3K4me3/H4K20me3 and H3K36me3/H4K20me3 bound regions are enriched with repetitive LINE and LTR elements.

Uhrf1 regulates active transcriptional marks at bivalent domains in pluripotent stem cells through Setd1a [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) maintain pluripotency through unique epigenetic states. When ESCs commit to a specific cell lineage, changes in histone modifications and DNA methylation accompany the transition to more specialized cell types. Investigating how epigenetic regulation maintains pluripotency is a critical component in order to generate the required cell types for future clinical application. Uhrf1 is a widely known hemi-methylated DNA binding protein, playing a role in heterochromatin formation alongside G9a, Trim28 and HDACs. In addition, it has been demonstrated that Uhrf1 functions to maintain DNA methylation through the recruitment of Dnmt1. Although Uhrf1 is not essential in ESC self-renewal, it still remains elusive how Uhrf1 regulates pluripotency. Here, we set out to elucidate the role of Uhrf1 in pluripotent stem cells. We found that Uhrf1 forms a complex with the active trithorax group of transcriptional regulators, in particular the Setd1a/COMPASS complex. Our data show that loss of Uhrf1 causes a dramatic reduction of bivalent histone marks, in particular those associated with neuroectoderm and mesoderm specification. Overall, our data demonstrate that Uhrf1 safeguards the balance between pluripotency and differentiation via the Setd1a/COMPASSS complex, through which Uhrf1 mediates bivalent histone modifications.

Genome-wide Analysis of Histone Methylations in Memory CD8+ T Cells

Project description:Histone methylations play a major role in regulating the chromatin state and gene expression, yet little is known about their involvement in differential gene expression and function of memory CD8 T cells. Here, we report a genome-wide analysis of two histone H3 methylations (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3) and gene expression in naïve, central (TCM) and effector (TEM) memory CD8 T cells. Analysis of 16,314 annotated genes in CD8 T cell subsets revealed that gene expression were positively correlated with the levels of H3K4me3 and negatively correlated with the levels of H3K27me3 in these gene loci. The correlation between differential H3K4me3 orH3K27me3 levels with gene expressions in memory CD8 T cells displayed four distinct modes: repressive, active, poised, and bivalent, reflecting their complex regulation and different function of these genes. Furthermore, accessible chromatin states of different gene loci were preferentially influenced by different histone modifications as demonstrated here high levels of H3K9ac found in active gene loci without high levels of H3K4me3. These findings reveal a histone methylation based complex regulation of differential gene expression in memory CD8 T cells. Thus, change of chromatin structure mediated by histone methylation may serve a fundamental basis for the rapid transcriptional response of memory CD8 T cells. genome-wide analysis of two histone H3 methylations (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3) in naïve, central (TCM) and effector (TEM) memory CD8 T cells.
