Project description:The experiment was designed to test the role of EHMT2 in developmental regulation of transcription and imprinted gene regulation. We collected samples that allow us to interpret transcription changes due to different genetically induced deficiencies in the Ehmt2 gene encoding the H3K9 methyltransferase EHMT2. The deficiencies included zygotic homozygosity, maternal mutation, and parental (maternal, paternal, and biparental) haploinsufficiencies, and their respective controls. The time of collection was between 8.5 and 9.5 dpc to allow collecting placentas from somite-stage matched embryos and detect transcriptome changes shortly before the death of homozygous mutant embryos at 10.5 dpc.

Project description:The experiment was designed to interpret transcription changes in embryos that are developmentally delayed due to different genetically induced deficiencies in the Ehmt2 gene encoding the H3K9 methyltransferase EHMT2. The deficiencies included zygotic homozygosity, maternal mutation, and parental (maternal, paternal, and biparental) haploinsufficiencies, and their respective controls. The age of the embryos was between 8.5 and 9.5 dpc to allow collecting somite-stage matched embryos and detect transcriptome changes shortly before the death of homozygous mutant embryos at 10.5 dpc. Analyzing the homozygous mutants in a novel four-way comparison we distinguished differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that are direct effects of the mutation from those that correspond to embryo development. We separated the developmental DEGs that occur regardless of EHMT2 between the 6-and 12-somite stages, and then identified those developmental DEGs that uniquely change in either the normal or the mutant development. Ehmt2 zygotic and maternal mutant embryos display an increased variance, suggesting that EHMT2 is responsible for narrowing the transcriptional noise after gastrulation. Some transposable element classes correlate with genotype, but others correlate with developmental stage. EHMT2 is required for suppressing long noncoding transcripts that initiate in transposable elements predominantly of the ERVK-class. The ERVK promoters of noncanonical imprinted genes in the embryo require EHMT2 for biallelic silencing and DNA methylation. The transcriptome of delayed parental haploinsufficient wild type embryos is normal, consistent with their good survival prospects. Our four-way comparison approach is generally applicable to functional dissection of essential transcriptional regulators during development.

Project description:Rudhira is essential for mouse developmental angiogenesis and tissue morphogenesis. Embryos lacking endothelial rudhira die at mid-gestation with vascular patterning defects. Rudhira mutant yolk sac endothelial cells show slow and random migration. So to identify key signaling pathways perturbed in the absence of rudhira, we undertook whole transcriptome based analysis of gene expression in rudhira null yolk sac and embryo. Transcriptome analysis shows that key mediators of angiogenesis, cell adhesion, migration and extracellular matrix degradation as well as several components of the TGFβ pathway are perturbed in rudhira null mutant yolk sacs at 9.5 dpc.

Project description:G9a (EHMT2) and the G9a-like protein GLP (EHMT1) form a stable G9a/GLP heterodimer in embryonic stem cells and function cooperatively to establish and maintain the abundant repressive H3K9me2 modification, in addition to modifying several non-histone proteins. The G9a-dependent H3K9me2 is implicated in lineage-specific gene silencing and covers large chromosomal domains. While the mechanism of H3K9me2maintenance by G9a/GLP is known, how new patterns of this modification are established is not well understood. With this in mind, we used FLAG affinity purification of G9a under two different stringency conditions (150 and 300 mM NaCl) coupled with mass spectrometry to identify proteins stably associated with G9a/GLP, which could serve as potential recruiters of the complex to unmodified chromatin.

Project description:Delta-like 3 (Dll3) is a divergent ligand and modulator of the Notch signaling pathway only identified so far in mammals. Null mutations of Dll3 disrupt cycling expression of Notch targets Hes1, Hes5, and Lfng, but not of Hes7. Compared with Dll1 or Notch1, the effects of Dll3 mutations are less severe for gene expression in the presomitic mesoderm, yet severe segmentation phenotypes and vertebral defects result in both human and mouse. Reasoning that Dll3 specifically disrupts key regulators of somite cycling, we carried out functional analysis to identify targets accounting for the segmental phenotype. Using microdissected embryonic tissue from somitic and presomitic mesodermal tissue, we identified new genes enriched in these tissues, including Limch1, Rphn2, and A130022J15Rik. Surprisingly, we only identified a small number of genes disrupted by the Dll3 mutation. These include Uncx, a somite gene required for rib and vertebral patterning, and Nrarp, a regulator of Notch/Wnt signaling in zebrafish and a cycling gene in mouse. To determine the effects of Dll3 mutation on Nrarp, we characterized the cycling expression of this gene from early (8.5 dpc) to late (10.5 dpc) somitogenesis. Nrarp displays a distinct pattern of cycling phases when compared to Lfng and Axin2 (a Wnt pathway gene) at 9.5 dpc but appears to be in phase with Lfng by 10.5 dpc. Nrarp cycling appears to require Dll3 but not Lfng modulation. In Dll3 null embryos, Nrarp displayed static patterns. However, in Lfng null embryos, Nrarp appeared static at 8.5 dpc but resumed cycling expression by 9.5 and dynamic expression at 10.5 dpc stages. By contrast, in Wnt3a null embryos, Nrarp expression was completely absent in the presomitic mesoderm. Towards identifying the role of Dll3 in regulating somitogenesis, Nrarp emerges as a potentially important regulator that requires Dll3 but not Lfng for normal function.
