Chromatin architecture transitions from zebrafish sperm through early embryogenesis [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Coordinated gene expression is fundamental for cell identity, development and differentiation, and relies on a highly organized genome. Our central goal is to determine when and how higher-order 3D chromatin architecture is first established in early vertebrate embryos, its resemblance to paternal/sperm architecture, its impact on transcription, and its role in developmental transitions. We exploited the natural transition in zebrafish embryogenesis, where the zygotic genome remains transcriptionally silent until the onset of zygotic genome activation (ZGA) to assess the establishment of higher order 3D chromatin architecture by obtaining dense genome-wide Hi-C maps. Through this approach, we defined higher-order architecture by combining advanced low-cell in-situ HiC methods with a Drosophila HiC spike-in control. We have demonstrated the histone packed zebrafish sperm lack topological associated domains, but instead displays unique “hinge-like” domains. Prior to ZGA the zebrafish genome largely lacks physical structure, while after ZGA there are small domain-like structures detectable. Lastly, we find initial chromatin architecture formation at super enhancers – and demonstrate that this formation is lost upon chemical inhibition of CBP/p300 activity (lowering histone H3K27ac), but not transcription inhibition. The experiments address fundamental mechanisms of initiation, how TADs are established and remodeled in vivo, and their effect on gene expression both during and after ZGA - a universal transition across animals - using the zebrafish model.

Ultrasensitive proteomics depicted an in-depth landscape for the very early stage of mouse maternal-to-zygotic transition

Project description:Maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is a conserved and fundamental process during which the maternal environment of oocyte transits to the zygotic genome driven expression program, and terminally differentiated oocyte and sperm are reprogrammed to totipotency. Metaphase II (MII) oocytes and zygotes (one-cell embryo) serve as the mature oocyte and the initiation of pre-implantation embryo development respectively, and characterizing their molecular landscapes at protein levels plays an important role in uncovering MZT and zygotic genome activation (ZGA )in mammals. Here we used an ultrasensitive proteomic approach to depict an in-depth landscape for the very early stage of mouse MZT.

Quantitative proteomics reveals the dynamic proteome landscape of zebrafish embryos during maternal-to-zygotic transition and its relationship to zygotic genome activation

Project description:Upon fertilization, the embryonic genome remains transcriptionally inactive until the mid-blastula transition. Zygotic genome activation (ZGA) of vertebrate embryos has been extensively studied using nucleic acid-based strategies, but proteomics data are still scarce, impeding the full mechanistic understanding of how ZGA is executed during the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT). Here, we performed quantitative proteomics to decipher the proteome landscape of zebrafish embryos during the MZT, quantifying nearly 5,000 proteins across four embryonic stages. The stage-specific clustering based on protein expression pattern revealed that helicases (i.e., eif4a2 and ruvbl1) facilitate pluripotency factors (i.e., nanog, pou5f3, ctcf, and hmga1) triggering ZGA in zebrafish, accompanied by the maternal product decay with P-bodies and ubiquitin dependent proteolytic pathway. Dozens of transcription factors show wave-like expression patterns during MZT, implying their diverse functions in triggering the ZGA and modulating differentiation for organ development. The combination of morpholino knockdown and quantitative proteomics demonstrated that maternal Nanog is required for proper embryogenesis by regulating 1) interactions with other pluripotency factors, 2) F-actin band formation, 3) cell cycle checkpoints and 4) maternal product degradation. This study represents the most systematic proteomics survey of developmentally regulated proteins and their expression profiles accompanying MZT in zebrafish, which is a valuable proteome resource for understanding ZGA.

Identification of zygotically transcribed genes in zebrafish by 4-thio-UTP metabolic labeling

Project description:The first embryonic cell divisions rely on maternally stored mRNA and proteins. The zygotic genome is initially transcriptionally silenced and activated later in a process called zygotic genome activation (ZGA). ZGA in any species is still a poorly understood process; the timing of transcription onset is controversial and the identity of the first transcribed genes unclear. Zebrafish, Danio rerio, is a rapidly developing vertebrate model, which is accessible to experimentation and global studies before, during and after ZGA. To accurately determine the onset of ZGA and to identify the first transcripts in zebrafish, we developed a metabolic labeling method, utilizing the ribonucleotide analog 4-thio-UTP, which allows efficient and specific affinity purification of newly transcribed RNA. Using deep sequencing, we characterized the onset of transcription in zebrafish embryos at 128-, 256-, and 512-cell stages. We identified 592 nuclear-encoded zygotically transcribed genes, comprising 670 transcript isoforms. Mitochondrial genomes were highly transcribed at all time points. Further, bioinformatic analysis revealed an enrichment of transcription factors and miRNAs among the newly transcribed genes, suggesting mechanistic roles for the early genes that are required to activate subsequent gene expression programs in development. Interestingly, analysis of gene-architecture revealed that zygotically transcribed genes are often intronless and short, reducing transcription and processing time of the transcript. The newly generated dataset enabled us to compare zygotically transcribed genes over a broad phylogenetic distance with fly and mouse early zygotic genes. This analysis revealed that short gene length is a common characteristic for early zygotically expressed genes. However, we detected a poor level of overlap for shared orthologs.

PRMT6 knockdown effects on the early zebrafish development

Project description:Zygotic genome activation (ZGA), which is according to the midblastula transition in zebrafish, is an important event during the maternal-zygotic transition in animals. Our preliminary study and other groupâs works indicate that epigenetic regulations play an essential role in ZGA. Morpholino was employed to knockdown PRMT6. We used microarrays to analyze the global gene expression in prmt6 morphants. prmt6 MO (0.3mM) was injected into the one-two cell zebrafish, prmt6 cMO (0.3mM) injection as a control. At 6 hpf, embryos were classified into three subtypes (normal, mild and severe) and prepared for global gene expression analysis with Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Arrays. The severe subtype and the control were repeated three times.

Inherited DNA methylation primes the establishment of accessible chromatin during genome activation

Project description:For animals, epigenetic modifications can be globally or partially inherited from gametes after fertilization, but the mechanism underlying how the inherited epigenetic signatures affect transcriptional regulation during zygotic genome activation (ZGA) remains poorly understood. Here, we performed genome-wide profiling of chromatin accessibility during zebrafish ZGA, which is closely related to zygotic transcriptional regulation. The locations of the accessible chromatin at promoters were precisely primed by the enrichment of unmethylated CpGs that were fully inherited from gametes. On the other hand, distal regions with high methylation levels that were inherited from the sperm facilitated the binding of DNA methylation-preferred transcription factors, such as pou5f3 and nanog, which contributed to the establishment of accessible chromatin at these loci. Our results demonstrate a model whereby inherited DNA methylation signatures from gametes prime the establishment of accessible chromatin during zebrafish ZGA through two distinct mechanisms.

Widespread enhancer dememorization and promoter priming during parental-to-zygotic transition

Project description:The epigenome plays critical roles in controlling gene expression and development. However, how the parental epigenomes transit to the zygotic epigenome in early development remains elusive. Here, we show parental-to-zygotic transition in zebrafish involves extensive erasure of parental epigenetic memory starting by methylating gametic enhancers. Surprisingly, this occurs even prior to fertilization for sperm. Both parental enhancers lose histone marks by the 4-cell stage, and zygotic enhancers are not activated until around zygotic genome activation (ZGA). By contrast, many promoters remain hypomethylated and, unexpectedly, acquire de novo histone acetylation as early as at the 4-cell stage. They then resolve into either activated or repressed promoters upon ZGA. Maternal depletion of histone acetyltransferases results in aberrant ZGA and early embryonic lethality. Finally, such reprogramming is largely driven by maternal factors with zygotic products contributing to embryonic enhancer activation. Thus, these data revealed widespread enhancer dememorization and promoter priming during parental-to-zygotic transition.

Developmental features of DNA methylation during activation of the embryonic zebrafish genome

Project description:Zygotic genome activation (ZGA) occurs at the mid-blastula transition (MBT) in zebrafish and is a period of chromatin remodeling. Genome-scale gametic demethylation and remethylation occurs after fertilization, during blastula stages, but how ZGA relates to promoter DNA methylation states is unknown. Using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation coupled to high-density microarray hybridization (MeDIP-ChIP), we characterize genome-wide promoter DNA methylation dynamics before, during and after ZGA onset, in relation changes in post-translational histone modification and gene expression (Series GSE22830). A Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test was applied with P <= 0.01 to identify methylation peaks. MeDIP-chip experiments were performed on24 hpf zebrafish embryos and sperm. Samples were lysed and proteins digested by proteinase k treatment. DNA was extracted with phenol-chloroform-isoamylalcohol and ethanol precipitation. The DNA was RNAse treated and sonicated to fragment lengths between 300-1000 bp. From each stage, duplicate immuneoprecipitations were performed using anti-5-methylcytosine antibody (10 ng/M-BM-5l; Mab-006-100; Diagenode) coupled to Dynabeads M-280 sheep anti-mouse IgG (Invitrogen). MeDIP and input DNA (150 ng each) were amplified (WGA-2; Sigma-Aldrich), cleaned up, eluted and processed for array hybridization. MeDIP and input DNA were labeled and co-hybridized onto the Nimbegen promoter arrays. The array covers 15 kb of upstream regulatory sequence and 5 kb downstream of the TSS of all zebrafish genes. A Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test was applied with P <= 0.01 to identify methylation peaks.
