Oryza sativa RNA-dependent RNA polymerase 6 (OsRDR6) contributes to DSB formation in rice meiosis

ABSTRACT: RNA-dependent RNA polymerase 6 (RDR6) is a core component of the small RNA biogenesis pathway, but its function in meiosis is unclear. Herein we report a new allele of OsRDR6 (Osrdr6-mei), which causes meiosis-specific phenotype in rice. In Osrdr6-mei, meiotic DSB formation was blocked to some extent. We further created a biallelic mutant, Osrdr6-bi, by crossing Osrdr6-mei with a knock out mutant, Osrdr6-edit (Osrdr6-edi). In Osrdr6-bi, 24 univalents were observed at diakinesis, and no histone H2AX phosphorylation (γH2AX) foci was detected in meiocytes, indicating that OsRDR6 is crucial for meiotic DSB formation. Compared with the wild type, the number of 21-nt small RNAs was dramatically reduced, while the number of 24-nt small RNAs was significantly increased in Osrdr6-mei. And thousands of DMRs discovered in Osrdr6-mei, implying that OsRDR6 plays an essential role on DNA methylation, especially CHH methylation. Meanwhile, the transcriptome data showed that 457 genes were down-regulated in the mutant; including three genes related to DSB formation: OsSDS, P31comet and CRC1. Interestingly, the increased 24-nt small RNA level surrounding down-regulated genes was largely associated with the silencing of these genes, while DMRs were rarely related to them. In summary, we speculated that the small RNA levels are disordered in Osrdr6 mutants, which may lead to the defection of DSB formation.

Meiotic recombination initiation hotspots in Arabidopsis genes and transposons (SPO11-1-oligonucleotides-seq)

Project description:To determine meiotic recombination initiation sites in Arabidopsis thaliana genome we purified and sequenced oligonucleotides (35-45 nt) bound to SPO11-1, meiosis specific transesterase that induces meiotic DSB formation. This reveals that SPO11-1-oligonucleotide hotspots occur at nucleosome depleted regions of gene promoters, introns, terminators and specific families of DNA transposons (recomposons). To investigate the influence of chromatin structure and epigenetic factors on meiotic DSB formation we performed sequencing of SPO11-1-oligonucleotides in arp6, met1 and suvh4 suvh5 suvh6.

R-loop landscapes in yeast meiosis

Project description:Meiotic recombination is initiated by the Spo11-dependent programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that are preferentially concentrated within genomic regions known as hotspots, but the factor(s) which specify the positions for meiotic DSB hotspots remain unclear. Here, we show that the frequency and distribution of R-loops, a type of functional chromatin structure comprising single-stranded DNA and a DNA:RNA hybrid, change dramatically throughout meiosis. We detected the formation of multiple de novo R-loops in the pachytene stage, and found they co-localize with meiotic DSB hotspots. We further show that transcription-replication head-on collisions could promote R-loop formation during meiosis, and apparently direct the initiation of meiotic DSB formation. Furthermore, the hotspots can be eliminated by reverse the direction of either transcription or replication, and reconstituted by reverse both of their direction. Our study reveals that R-loops may play dual roles in meiotic recombination. In addition to participation in meiotic DSB processing, some meiotic DSB hotspots may be originated from the transcription-replication head-on collisions during meiotic DNA replication.

Histone H3 lysine9 acetylation, rather than lysine4 trimethylation, marks meiotic recombination hotspots and promotes recombination initiation in fission yeast

Project description:Histone modifications are associated with meiotic recombination hotspots, discrete sites with augmented recombination frequency. For example, trimethylation of histone H3 lysine4 (H3K4me3) marks most hotspots in budding yeast and mouse. Modified histones are known to regulate meiotic recombination partly by promoting DNA double strand break (DSB) formation, but the role and precise landscape of histone modifications at hotspots remain unclear. Here, we studied hotspot-associated modifications in fission yeast and found general features: acetylation of H3 lysine9 (H3K9ac) is strikingly elevated, and H3K4me3 is not significantly enriched. Remarkably, elimination of H3K9ac reduced binding of the DSB-inducing enzyme Rec12 and DSB at hotspots. We also found that the H3K4 metyltransferase Set1 promotes DSB formation at some loci, but it restricts Rec12 binding to hotspots. These results suggest that H3K9ac rather than H3K4me3 is a hotspot-associated mark involved in meiotic DSB formation in fission yeast. S.pombe cells in a pat1-114 background were induced to enter meiosis by the haploid meiosis system, and harvested one hour after the induction. ChIP were performed using anti-H3Cter, H3K9ac, -H3K14ac and -H3K4me3 antibodies. pat1-114 rad50S rec12+-FLAG cells in a wild type, H3K9A or set1+ deletion background were induced to enter meiosis by the haploid meiosis system, and harvested five hours after the induction. ChIP were performed using anti-FLAG antibodies.

Recombination initiation maps of individual human genomes

Project description:DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are introduced in meiosis to initiate recombination and to generate crossovers, the reciprocal exchanges of genetic material between parental chromosomes. Here we present the first high-resolution map of meiotic DSBs in individual human genomes. Comparing DSB maps between individuals shows that along with DNA binding by PRDM9, additional factors dictate the efficiency of DSB formation. Furthermore, we find that in human males, the frequency of DSB formation is the primary determinant of crossover rate. Patterns of sequence polymorphisms around meiotic DSB hotspots provide evidence for both GC-biased gene conversion and for a mutagenic role of DSB repair and/or recombination. Finally, we provide compelling evidence that the aberrant repair of meiotic DSBs is a driver of human genomic disorders. Detection of meiotic double strand breaks in testis of several human male individuals.

Spp1, a member of Set1 complex, promotes meiotic DSB formation by tethering histone H3K4 methylation sites to chromosome axes

Project description:Meiotic DSB, catalyzed by the Spo11 transesterase protein and accessory DSB proteins, form in the nucleosome depleted regions (NDR) at promoters, preferentially those located on the chromosome loops that shape meiotic chromosomes, whereas the DSB proteins are located on chromosome axes at the basis of these loops. Mechanisms bridging these two chromosomal regions for DSB formation have remained elusive. Here we show that Spp1, a conserved member of the histone H3K4 methyltransferase Set1 complex, is required for normal levels of DSB formation and is associated with chromosome axes in the DSB-rich domains during meiosis. Moreover, Spp1 physically interacts with the Mer2 axis-associated DSB protein, and uses its PHD finger as a magnet to read H3K4 trimethylation close to promoters, tether these regions to chromosome axes and activate cleavage in the nearby promoter by the DSB proteins. We further show that in the absence of Spp1 or the Set1 complex, DSB are introduced at a few new sites, located in promoters of transcriptionally induced genes, suggesting another selection mechanism of preferred DSB sequences. This paper provides the molecular mechanism linking H3K4me3 to the DSB forming machinery, by the meiosis-specific specialization of Spp1 as an active member of the DSB complex and a reader of H3K4me3, and opens perspectives for the study of DSB formation at mammalian recombination hotspots that are also enriched in H3K4me3.

Budding yeast ATM/ATR contribute to meiotic double-strand-break (DSB) homeostasis by down-regulating Rec114, an essential component of the DSB-machinery

Project description:In most organisms, meiotic recombination begins with programmed DNA double strand break (DSB) formation by Spo11. Here, we present evidence that Tel1/Mec1, the budding yeast ATM/ATR, regulate DSB formation by phosphorylating Rec114, an essential Spo11-accessory protein. Analyses of a non-phosphorylatable- or phosphomimetic- alleles of rec114 revealed that DSB-dependent phosphorylation of Rec114 limited its association with DSB-hotspots resulting in reduction in DSB formation. Also observed were the impact of Rec114 phosphorylation on its homolog synapsis-associated removal from chromosomes and NDT80-dependent turnover. Specifically, we found that the synapsis- and NDT80-dependent Rec114 downregulation occurred later in the rec114 mutant with a reduced Spo11-catalysis, but earlier in the other with an enhanced catalysis, strongly implicating the existence of a feedback mechanism coupling the extent of Spo11-catalysis to Rec114 activity. Taken together, these observations suggest that three different mechanisms of down regulating Rec114 contribute to meiotic DSB homeostasis, a feedback mechanism to maintain the number of meiotic DSBs at the developmentally programmed level. 6 genome wide ChIPchip sets: 3 for meiotic DSB formation (Spo11-ChIP) and 3 for protein-DNA association (Rec114-ChIP), each for wild type and two mutants during meiosis (corresponding to the main Figure 3, as well as to Figures S3, S4, S5).

Turning coldspots into hotspots: targeted recruitment of axis protein Hop1 stimulates meiotic recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:The DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) that initiate meiotic recombination are formed in the context of the meiotic chromosome axis, which in budding yeast contains a meiosis-specific cohesin isoform and the meiosis-specific proteins Hop1 and Red1. Hop1 and Red are important for DSB formation; DSB levels are reduced in their absence and their levels, which vary along the lengths of chromosomes, are positively correlated with DSB levels. How axis protein levels influence DSB formation and recombination remains unclear. To address this question, we developed a novel approach that uses a bacterial ParB-parS partition system to recruit axis proteins at high levels to inserts at recombination coldspots where Hop1 and Red1 levels are normally low. Recruiting Hop1 markedly increased DSBs and homologous recombination at target loci, to levels equivalent to those observed at endogenous recombination hotspots. This local increase in DSBs did not require Red1 or the meiosis-specific cohesin component Rec8, indicating that, of the axis proteins, Hop1 is sufficient to promote DSB formation. However, while most crossovers at endogenous recombination hotspots are formed by the meiosis-specific MutLγ resolvase, only a small fraction of crossovers that formed at an insert locus required MutLγ, regardless of whether or not Hop1 was recruited to that locus. Thus, while local Hop1 levels determine local DSB levels, the recombination pathways that repair these breaks can be determined by other factors, raising the intriguing possibility that different recombination pathways operate in different parts of the genome.

Transcription profiling of S. cerevisiae mre11, rad50 and spo11 mutants in premeiosis and meiotic prophase

Project description:Mre11, together with Rad50 and Xrs2/NBS, plays pivotal roles in homologous recombination, repair of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), activation of damage-induced checkpoint, and telomere maintenance. Using DNA microarray assays to analyze yeast mutants (mre11delta, rad50delta, and spo11Y135F) defective for meiotic DSB formation, we demonstrate that the absence of Mre11 in yeast causes specific effects on regulation of a class of meiotic genes for spore development. The transcriptional deficiency was not observed in other DSB mutants such as rad50delta and spo11Y135F, suggesting the transcriptional defect in mre11delta is due to neither lack of meiotic DSB formation, nor disintegrity of Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 complex.These defects were confirmed by northern and lacZ reporter gene assays. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression data from wild type, mre11delta, rad50delta, and spo11Y135F cells in premeiosis (meiosis 0 hr) and prophase (meiosis 4 hr). Affymetrix GeneChip YG-S98 was used. All strains used were SK1 background diploid cells.

Genome wide map of DMC1 in testis of Stag3-/-, Rec8-/- and Stag3-/-Rec8-/- mice.

Project description:During mouse meiosis, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are initiated by SPO11 at recombination hotspots (HSs), activated by PRDM9. Although activated HSs are marked by H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 histone modifications at open chromatin, most of the DSB-initiating and repair proteins are associated with the chromosome axis. This study addresses the mechanistic importance of the axis-associated cohesin proteins in DSB formation. We demonstrate that interactions between PRDM9 and the meiotic axis proteins STAG3 and REC8 are essential for efficient DSB formation. The absence of STAG3 or REC8 leads to inefficient meiotic DSB formation at HSs. STAG3 is critical for DSB formation, even at PRDM9-independent DSB-sites. Also, STAG3 and REC8 facilitate recruitment of the DSB-promoting proteins HORMAD1, IHO1 and MEI4 required for SPO11 activity. Together, these results support an evolutionarily conserved model in which axis-associated cohesin complexes recruit recombination-initiating proteins to DSB sites to promote meiotic recombination initiation.

Characterization of Spp1-TAP and Mer2-TAP interactomes

Project description:Histone H3K4 methylation is a feature of meiotic recombination hotspots shared by many organisms including plants and mammals. Meiotic recombination is initiated by programmed double strand break (DSB) formation that in budding yeast is directed in gene promoters by histone H3K4 di/trimethylation. This histone modification is indeed recognized by Spp1, a PHD-finger containing protein that belongs to the conserved histone H3K4 methyltransferase Set1 complex. During meiosis, Spp1 binds H3K4me and recruits a DSB protein, Mer2, to promote DSB formation close to gene promoters. How Set1C and Mer2 related functions of Spp1 are connected is not clear.
