The role of mammalian DNA methyltransferases in the regulation of temporal order of DNA replication [microarray]

ABSTRACT: Multiple epigenetic pathways underlie the temporal order of DNA replication (replication timing) in the context of development and disease. DNA methylation by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and downstream chromatin reorganization and transcriptional changes are thought to impact DNA replication, yet this remains to be comprehensively tested. Using cell biological and genome-wide approaches to measure replication timing, we identified a number of genomic regions undergoing subtle but reproducible replication timing changes in various DNMT-mutant mouse ES cell lines that include a line with a drug-inducible DNMT3a2 expression system. Replication timing within pericentromeric heterochromatin (PH) correlates with redistribution of H3K27me3 induced upon DNA hypomethylation: later replicating PH coincides with H3K27me3 enriched regions. In contrast, this relationship with H3K27me3 was not evident at chromosomal arm regions that undergo either early-to-late (EtoL) or late-to-early (LtoE) replication timing switching upon loss of DNMTs. Interestingly, transcriptional up- and down-regulation frequently coincide with earlier and later shifts in replication timing of chromosomal arm regions, respectively. Our study revealed previously unrecognized complex and diverse roles of DNMTs in shaping the mammalian DNA replication landscape. We investigated the effect of Dnmt3a2 expression in the transcription profile of Dnmt3a and 3b double knockout (DKO) ES cells.

Structure of DNA methyltransferases DNMT3A/DNMT3B bound to a nucleosome [array]

Project description:CpG methylation by the de novo DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) 3A and 3B is essential for mammalian development and differentiation and is frequently dysregulated in cancer1. These two DNMTs preferentially bind to nucleosomes yet cannot methylate the DNA wrapped around the nucleosome core2, and favor the methylation of linker DNA at positioned nucleosomes3,4. Here we present the cryo-EM structure of a ternary complex of catalytically competent DNMT3A2, the catalytically inactive accessory subunit DNMT3B3, and a nucleosome core particle flanked by linker DNA. The catalytic-like domain of the accessory DNMT3B3 binds the acidic patch of the nucleosome core, which orients the binding of DNMT3A2 to the linker DNA. The steric constraints of this arrangement suggest that nucleosomal DNA must be moved relative to the nucleosome core for de novo methylation to occur.

Genomic profiling of DNA methyltransferases reveals a role for DNMT3B in genic methylation

Project description:DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification associated with transcriptional repression of promoters and is essential for mammalian development. Establishment of DNA methylation is mediated by the de novo DNA methyltransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B, whereas DNMT1 ensures maintenance of methylation through replication. Absence of these enzymes is lethal, and somatic mutations in these genes have been associated with several human diseases. How genomic DNA methylation patterns are regulated remains poorly understood, as the mechanisms that guide recruitment and activity of DNMTs in vivo are largely unknown. To gain insights into this matter we determined chromosomal binding and site-specific activity of the mammalian de novo DNA methyltransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B. We show that both enzymes localize to methylated, CpG dense regions in mouse stem cells, yet are excluded from active promoters and enhancers. By specifically measuring sites of de novo methylation, we observe that enzymatic activity reflects chromosomal binding. De novo methylation increases with CpG density, yet is excluded from nucleosomes. Notably, we observed selective binding of DNMT3B to the bodies of transcribed genes, which leads to their preferential methylation. This targeting to transcribed sequences requires SETD2-mediated methylation of lysine 36 on histone H3 and a functional PWWP domain of DNMT3B. Together these findings reveal how sequence and chromatin cues guide de novo methyltransferase activity to ensure methylome integrity.

Dnmt3a1 regulates memory formation via the downstram target Nrp1

Project description:Epigenetic factors are well established players in memory formation. Specifically, DNA methylation is necessary for the formation of long-term memory in multiple brain regions including the hippocampus. Despite the demonstrated role for DNA methyltransferases (Dnmts) in memory formation whether individual Dnmts play unique or redundant functions in long-term memory formation is not well established. Furthermore, the downstream processes controlled by the Dnmts during the consolidation of memory are not investigated. In this study, we investigated the requirement for Dnmt3a1, the predominant Dnmt in the adult brain, in hippocampal long-term memory formation. Furthermore, we identified an activity-regulated Dnmt3a1-dependent genomic program. Our data showed that Dnmt3a1, similarly to its isoform Dnmt3a2, plays a critical role in memory formation. Furthermore, we uncovered Neuropilin 1 (Nrp1) as a downstream target of Dnmt3a1 during the formation of memory. Intriguingly, we found that Nrp1 expression is selectively regulated and a specific downstream effector of Dnmt3a1, but not Dnmt3a2. Taken together, our study uncovered a Dnmt3a isoform specific mechanism in memory formation and further highlighted the complex and highly regulated functions of distinct epigenetic regulators in brain function.

Replication timing and epigenome remodelling are associated with the nature of chromosomal rearrangements in cancer [Repli-seq]

Project description:DNA replication timing is known to facilitate the establishment of the epigenome, however, the intimate connection between replication timing and changes to the genome and epigenome in cancer remain largely uncharacterised. Here, we perform Repli-Seq and integrated epigenome analyses and demonstrate that genomic regions that undergo long-range epigenetic deregulation in prostate cancer also show concordant differences in replication timing. A subset of altered replication timing domains are conserved across cancers from different tissue origins. Notably, late-replicating regions in cancer cells display a loss of DNA methylation, and a switch in heterochromatin features from H3K9me3-marked constitutive to H3K27me3-marked facultative heterochromatin. Finally, analysis of 214 prostate and 35 breast cancer genomes reveal that late-replicating regions are prone to cis and early-replication to trans chromosomal rearrangements. Together, our data suggests that the nature of chromosomal rearrangement in cancer is related to the spatial and temporal positioning and altered epigenetic states of early-replicating compared to late-replicating loci.

TimEX from human embryonic stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, and erythroid cells

Project description:The organization of mammalian DNA replication is poorly understood. We have produced genome-wide high-resolution dynamic maps of the timing of replication in human erythroid, mesenchymal and embryonic stem cells using TimEX, a method that relies on gaussian convolution of massive, highly redundant determinations of DNA copy number variations during S phase obtained using either high-density oligonucleotide tiling arrays or massively-parallel sequencing to produce replication timing profiles. We show that in untransformed human cells, timing of replication is highly regulated and highly synchronous, and that many genomic segments are replicated in temporal transition regions devoid of initiation where replication forks progress unidirectionally from origins that can be hundreds of kilobases away. Absence of initiation in one transition region is shown at the molecular level by SMARD analysis. Comparison of ES and erythroid cells replication patterns revealed that these cells replicate about 20% of their genome in different quarter of S phase and that ES cells replicate a larger proportion of their genome in early S phase than erythroid cells. Importantly, we detected a strong inverse relationship between timing of replication and distance to the closest expressed gene. This relationship can be used to predict tissue specific timing of replication profiles from expression data and genomic annotations. We also provide evidence that early origins of replication are preferentially located near highly expressed genes, that mid firing origins are located near moderately expressed genes and that late firing origins are located far from genes.
