Genome-wide maps of histone H3K9 acetylation in the mouse strains C57BL/6J, MSM/Ms, and their F1 hybrids

ABSTRACT: More than one million copies of short interspersed elements (SINEs), a class of retrotransposons, are present in the mammalian genomes, particularly within gene-rich genomic regions. Evidence has accumulated that ancient SINE sequences have acquired new binding sites for transcription factors (TFs) through multiple mutations following retrotransposition, and as a result have rewired the host regulatory network during the course of evolution. However, it remains unclear whether currently active SINEs contribute to the expansion of TF binding sites. To study the mobility, expression, and function of SINE copies, we first identified about 2,000 insertional polymorphisms of B1 and B2 SINE families within Mus musculus. Using a novel RNA sequencing method developed here, we detected the expression of SINEs in testes at both the subfamily and genomic copy levels: the vast majority of B1 RNAs originated from evolutionarily young subfamilies, whereas B2 RNAs contained transcripts from both young and old subfamilies. DNA methylation and chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) analyses revealed that polymorphic B2 insertions served as a chromatin boundary element inhibiting the expansion of DNA hypomethylated and histone hyperacetylated regions, and decreased the expression of neighboring genes. Moreover, a total of > 100 polymorphic B2 insertions were bound by CTCF, a well-known chromatin boundary protein. These results suggest that the currently active B2 copies are mobile chromatin boundary elements that can modulate gene expression level, and are likely involved in epigenomic and phenotypic diversification of the mouse species.

Transcriptome-scale analysis for RNAs of medium length, designated as melRNA-seq

Project description:More than one million copies of short interspersed elements (SINEs), a class of retrotransposons, are present in the mammalian genomes, particularly within gene-rich genomic regions. Evidence has accumulated that ancient SINE sequences have acquired new binding sites for transcription factors (TFs) through multiple mutations following retrotransposition, and as a result have rewired the host regulatory network during the course of evolution. However, it remains unclear whether currently active SINEs contribute to the expansion of TF binding sites. To study the mobility, expression, and function of SINE copies, we first identified about 2,000 insertional polymorphisms of SINE B1 and B2 families within Mus musculus. Using a novel RNA sequencing method developed here, we detected the expression of SINEs in male germ cells at both the subfamily and genomic copy levels: the vast majority of B1 RNAs originated from evolutionarily young subfamilies, whereas B2 RNAs originated from both young and old subfamilies. DNA methylation and chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) analyses in liver revealed that polymorphic B2 insertions served as a chromatin boundary element inhibiting the expansion of DNA hypomethylated and histone hyperacetylated regions, and decreased the expression of neighboring genes. Moreover, genomic B2 copies were enriched at the boundary of ChIP-seq peaks of various histone modifications. A total of > 100 polymorphic B2 insertions, together with >10,000 non-polymorphic B2 copies, were bound by CTCF, a well-known chromatin boundary protein. These results suggest that the currently active B2 copies are mobile chromatin boundary elements that can modulate gene expression level, and are likely involved in epigenomic and phenotypic diversification of the mouse species.

Cytoplasmic mRNA level upon 4.5SH KD

Project description:We demonstrate that Myodonta-clade-specific 4.5S RNAH (4.5SH), an abundant nuclear noncoding RNA that is highly homologous to the retrotransposon SINE B1, controls the expression of multiple genes containing the antisense insertion of SINE B1 The depletion of endogenous 4.5SH with antisense oligonucleotides changes the subcellular distribution of these target transcripts containing the antisense SINE B1 insertions.

B2 and ALU retrotransposons are self-cleaving RNAs whose activity is enhanced by EZH2

Project description:More than 98% of the mammalian genome is noncoding and approximately half is made up of transposable elements. One of the most abundant is the short interspersed nuclear elements (SINE). Among the million copies of SINEs, B2 accounts for ~350,000 in the mouse genome and have garnered special interest because of emerging roles in gene regulation. Our recent work demonstrated that B2 RNA normally binds stress genes to retard transcription elongation. Though epigenetically silenced, B2s become massively upregulated during thermal stress. Specifically, an interaction between B2 RNA and the Polycomb protein, EZH2, results in cleavage of B2 RNA, release of B2 RNA from RNA Polymerase II, and activation of the stress genes. Although an established RNA-binding protein and histone methyltransferase, EZH2 is not known to be a nuclease. Here, we provide evidence for the surprising conclusion that B2 is a self-cleaving RNA. Contact with EZH2 accelerates cleavage rate by >100-fold, suggesting that EZH2 may assist cleavage as an RNA chaperone. Modification-interference analysis demonstrate that phosphorothioate changes at A and C nucleotides can substitute for EZH2’s function. B2 mutagenesis indicate that nucleotides around positions 45-55 and 100-101 are critical for cleavage reaction. Finally, we demonstrate that another family of SINEs, the ALU elements produce also a self-cleaving RNA. ALUs are intrinsically more auto-reactive than B2s. We propose that the B2/ALU SINEs are a new class of ribozymes whose activity is accelerated by EZH2.

Next generation sequencing of MA-10 mouse Leydig tumor cells facilitates quantitative analysis of SINE B2-antisense transcripts with the RNAi system: wild type and Dicer1-knockdown transcriptomes

Project description:We report the comparison between SINE B2-AS transcriptome profiling and Dicer1-deficient-cell transcriptome profiling using RNA-seq analysis. We report that thousands of SINE B2 copies encode long B2-AS transcripts, which are constantly degraded by Dicer1. This new class of B2-AS transcripts regulates the expression of SINE B2 sense (B2-S) transcripts. Long B2-S is the main cause of cellular toxicity likely mediated by the multifunctional protein TSPO. Some B2-AS transcripts are putative miRNAs interconnected with the RNAi system. We propose that B2-AS transcripts have evolved as a self-defense mechanism to subvert the host RNAi system.

B2 SINE expression during MHV68 infecton

Project description:Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are retrotransposons evolutionarily derived from endogenous RNA Polymerase III RNAs. Though SINE elements have undergone exaptation into gene regulatory elements, how transcribed SINE RNA impacts transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation is largely unknown. This is partly due to a lack of information regarding which of the loci have transcriptional potential. Here, we present an approach (short interspersed nuclear element sequencing, SINE-seq), which selectively profiles RNA Polymerase III-derived SINE RNA, thereby identifying transcriptionally active SINE loci. Applying SINE-seq to monitor murine B2 SINE expression during a gammaherpesvirus infection revealed transcription from 28,270 SINE loci, with ~50% of active SINE elements residing within annotated RNA Polymerase II loci. Furthermore, B2 RNA can form intermolecular RNA-RNA interactions with complementary mRNAs, leading to nuclear retention of the targeted mRNA via a mechanism involving p54nrb. These findings illuminate a pathway for the selective regulation of mRNA export during stress via retrotransposon activation.

RNA-seq analysis about Lx8-SINE B2 knocked down samples

Project description:We identified a novel long non-coding RNA Lx8-SINE B2, that is a marker of pluripotency. Depletion of Lx8-SINE B2 impacts embryonic stem cell self-renewal. RNA-seq analysis of Lx8-SINE B2 depletion revealed that a number of glycolytic genes with decreased expression. Mechanistically, we found that the Lx8-SINE B2 activates the glycolysis pathway by binding to Eno1. Collectively, our data suggest that Lx8-SINE B2 maintains the self-renewal of mESCs through glycolysis.

Histone methyltransferase SETDB1 silenced SINE B2 retrotransposons and maintained mitotic cell cycle of neural progenitor cells (WGBS)

Project description:Short interspersed nuclear element (SINE) B2 are a type of DNA retrotransposon that organize three-dimensional genome during development. Containing binding sites for CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF), SINE_B2 serve as domain boundary elements that control chromatin state and initiate transcription of critical developmental genes. However, it is still unclear how SINE_B2 are regulated during neurodevelopment. Our findings indicate novel mechanisms that modulate critical DNA retrotransposon activity, maintain chromosome conformation and contribute to central nervous system development.

Gene Expression Data from Prefrontal Cortex and Nucleus Accumbens from Inbred Strains of Mice

Project description:Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is an ubiquitously expressed enzyme that maintains basic biologic functions by inactivating catechol substrates. In humans, polymorphic variance at the COMT locus has been associated with modulation of pain sensitivity (Andersen & Skorpen, 2009) and risk for developing psychiatric disorders (Harrison & Tunbridge, 2008). A functional haplotype associated with increased pain sensitivity was shown to result in decreased COMT activity by altering mRNA secondary structure-dependent protein translation (Nackley et al., 2006). However, the exact mechanisms whereby COMT modulates pain sensitivity and behavior remain unclear and can be further studied in animal models. We have pursued a genome-wide approach to examining gene expression in multiple brain regions in inbred strains of mice and have discovered that Comt1 is differentially expressed. This expression difference was validated with qPCR. A B2-B4 Short Interspersed Element (SINE) was inserted in the 3'UTR of Comt1 in 14 strains that also shared a common haplotype. Experiments using mammalian expression vectors of full-length cDNA clones with and without the SINE element demonstrate that strains with the SINE haplotype (+SINE) have greater Comt1 enzymatic activity. +SINE mice also exhibit behavioral differences in anxiety assays and decreased pain sensitivity. These results suggest that a haplotype, defined by a 3'UTR B2-B4 SINE element, regulates Comt1 expression and mouse behavior.
