Project description:Genome organization is essential for proper function, including gene expression. In metazoan genome organization, chromatin loops and Topologically Associated Domains (TADs) facilitate local gene clustering, while chromosomes form distinct nuclear territories characterized by compartmentalization of silent heterochromatin at the nuclear periphery and active euchromatin in the nucleus center. A similar hierarchical organization occurs in the fungus Neurospora crassa where its seven chromosomes form a Rabl conformation, where heterochromatic centromeres and telomeres independently cluster at the nuclear membrane, while interspersed heterochromatic loci in Neurospora aggregate across megabases of linear genomic distance for forming TAD-like structures. However, the role of individual heterochromatic loci in normal genome organization and function is unknown. Here, we examined the genome organization of a Neurospora strain harboring a ~41 kilobase facultative (temporarily silent) heterochromatic region deletion, as well as the genome organization of a strain deleted of a ~110 kilobase permanently silent constitutive heterochromatic region. While the facultative heterochromatin deletion had little effect on local chromatin structure, the constitutive heterochromatin deletion altered local TAD-like structures, gene expression, and the predicted 3D genome structure by qualitatively repositioning genes into the nucleus center. Our work elucidates the role of individual heterochromatic regions for genome organization and function.

Project description:In this work, we studied function of rice DDM1 in coordinating DNA methylation, expression of small (sRNA) and long noncoding (lncRNA) RNAs, and nucleosome positioning by high throughput approaches.We show that the ddm1a/1b mutation resulted in ectopic CHH methylation of transposable elements (TE) and repeats. The ectopicCHH methylationwas dependent on DRM2, a DNA methyltransferase involved in sRNA-dependent DNA-methylation (RdDM). The ddm1a/1b mutation resulted in increases of heterochromatic sRNA but decreases of euchromatic sRNA production,induced expression of a set of developmentally regulated heterochromatic lncRNA , and increased nucleosome occupancy of TE-related or silent genes including heterochromatic lncRNA loci. In particular,DDM1-mediated repression ofCentromericRetrotransposons of Rice1 (CRR1) was essential for centromere function.

Project description:Disappearance of the Barr body has long been considered a hallmark of cancer, although whether this corresponds to epigenetic instability and transcriptional reactivation, or to genetic loss, has remained unclear. Here we show that in breast cancer cell lines as well as primary breast tumors, the inactive X chromosome frequently displays a highly abnormal 3D nuclear organization, with global perturbations in its characteristic heterochromatic state, including apparent gain of euchromatic marks and lessening of repressive marks such as H3K27me3 and promoter DNA methylation. Genome-wide profiling of chromatin and transcription reveal modified epigenomic landscapes in cancer cells accompanied by a significant degree of X-linked gene reactivation, affecting genes previously implicated in cancer, including the histone deacetylase, HDAC8 and transducin (Beta)-Like 1X-Linked, TBL1X. We provide proof of principle that epigenetic deregulation can indeed perturb the dosage of some X-linked factors and demonstrate that many of these genes are reactivated in primary breast tumors. Our study establishes that the inactive X is subject to epigenetic erosion in a cancer context and sets the stage for the use of chromatin marks and X- chromosome genes as potential biomarkers to assess epigenetic changes in cancer. Examination of allele specific expression of genes using nascent RNA on snp6 array by comparing it with snp6 results from genomic DNA.

Project description:In budding yeast, Set2 catalyzes di- and trimethylation of H3K36 (H3K36me2 and H3K36me3) via an interaction between its SRI domain and C-terminal repeats of RNA polymerase II (Pol2) phosphorylated at Ser2 and Ser5 (CTD-S2,5-P). H3K36me2 recruits the Rpd3S histone deacetylase complex to repress cryptic transcription from transcribed regions. In fission yeast, Set2 is also responsible for H3K36 methylation, which represses a subset of RNAs including heterochromatic and subtelomeric RNAs, at least in part via recruitment of Clr6 complex II, a homolog of Rpd3S. Here, we show that CTD-S2Pâdependent interaction of fission yeast Set2 with Pol2 via the SRI domain is required for formation of H3K36me3, but not H3K36me2. H3K36me3 silenced heterochromatic and subtelomeric transcripts through post-transcriptional and transcriptional mechanisms, respectively, whereas H3K36me2 did not. Clr6 complex II appeared not to be responsible for heterochromatic silencing. Our results demonstrate that H3K36 methylation has multiple outputs in fission yeast; these findings provide insight into the multiple roles of H3K36 methylation in metazoans, which have different enzymes for synthesis of H3K36me1/2 and H3K36me3. Gene expression profile at exponentially-growing phase.in the fission yeast deletion mutants of set2.

Project description:Silent nociceptors are sensory afferents that are insensitive to noxious mechanical stimuli under normal conditions but become sensitized to such stimuli during inflammation. We had previously shown that mouse silent nociceptors express the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha-3 subunit (CHRNA3) and can thus readily be identified in Tg(Chrna3-EGFP)BZ135Gsat reporter mice (Prato et al. Cell Reports 2017). Most importantly, we had shown that CHRNA3+ slient nociceptors acquire mechanosensitivity upon treatment with the inflammatory mediator nerve growth factor and demonstrated that this process requires de-novo gene transcription. Here, we performed paired-end RNA-sequencing to identify transcripts that might be involved in the acquisition of mechanosenstivity in mouse silent nociceptors.
