The conservation and divergence of epigenitic reprogramming during mammalian early development

ABSTRACT: To explore how parental epigenetic information is transmitted to the next generation across mammals, we systematically investigated the epigenomes of oocytes and early embryos among human, bovine, porcine, rat, and mouse. This unprecedented dataset revealed strikingly diverse, species-specific innovation of epigenetic transition. In oocytes, DNA methylation is restricted to active gene bodies in rodents, allowing methylation of maternal imprints but not intergenic paternal imprints. Strikingly, hypermethylation also occurs in non-transcribed regions in porcine and bovine, where paternal imprints instead reside in hypomethylated, megabase-long “CpG continents (CGCs)”. Despite the presence of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 domains in non-human oocytes, only rodent H3K27me3 survives beyond genome activation, supporting H3K27me3-mediated imprinting. Coincidently, regulatory elements are segregated away from H3K27me3 domains, the ectopic invasion of which leads to aberrant embryonic transcription. Finally, human does not fully resemble any of the rest species. Hence, mammals invent diverse epigenetic inheritance and reprogramming which center around a delicate balance in establishing imprints while protecting other regulatory regions.

Genomic imprinting of Xist by maternal H3K27me3

Project description:Maternal imprinting at the Xist gene is essential to achieve paternal allele-specific imprinted X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in female mammals. However, the mechanism underlying the Xist imprinting is unclear. Here we show that the Xist gene is coated with H3K27me3 in mouse oocytes, which persists through preimplantation development. Ectopic removal of H3K27me3 induces maternal Xist expression and maternal XCI, indicating that maternal H3K27me3 is the imprinting mark of Xist.

key histone modifications in porcine oocytes and early embryos

Project description:Conservation and species specificity are both unveiled in the reprogramming process of epigenetic modifications in early embryos. Pig is important agricultural livestock that closely related to human life and understanding the mechanisms of epigenetic reprogramming in porcine embryos could be assistive to the pig breeding industry and also informative to human embryo research. Nevertheless, current knowledge of epigenetic reprogramming in porcine embryos is elusive. We profile H3K4me3, H3K27me3, and H3K27ac modifications in porcine oocytes and preimplant embryos. Our data reveal the existence of unusual broad H3K4me3 domains not only in oocytes but also expanded in pre-ZGA embryos and demonstrates the extensive transitions of unusual broad H3K4me3 domains and their roles during embryogenesis. Notably, broad H3K27me3 and H3K27ac enriched domains are found to be preferably colocalized in these broad H3K4me3 domains when comparing to it in mice and human. By knocking down KDM5B in pig embryos, cleavage and developments were disrupted as demonstrated in mouse.

Transgenerational inheritance of acquired memory and epigenetic imprints through maternal gametes

Project description:Transgenerational inheritance of acquired traits/characteristics from ancestors is believed to play important roles in evolution, as well as health problems/symptoms not due to “classical genetic inheritance”. However, the central enigma, such as how the acquired transgenerational characteristics are developed, and how the acquired traits are transmitted from generations to generations of offspring, largely remained veiled. In this study, we used C elegans as a model system and provide evidence that the dynamic of H3K27me3 as a hallmark and regulator for the gut-mediated transgenerational inheritance of acquired traits. Further, we demonstrate that yolk proteins guide the establishment of the acquired epigenetic imprints in soma, as well as determines the transgenerational inheritance of epigenetic imprints and subsequent acquired behavior in offspring by maternal provision. Taken together, our findings support that yolk proteins both function as a systemic “non-nuclear factor” for establishing the somatic epigenetic imprints and as a “cargo” to transmit acquired epigenetic information to the subsequent generations through oocytes.

Epigenetic integrity of paternal imprints enhances the developmental potential of androgenetic haploid embryonic stem cells

Project description:The use of two inhibitors of Mek1/2 and Gsk3β (2i) promotes the generation of mouse diploid and haploid embryonic stem cells (ESCs) from the inner cell mass of biparental and uniparental blastocysts, respectively. However, a system enabling long-term maintenance of imprints in ESCs has proven challenging. Here, we report that usage of a two-step a2i (alternative two inhibitors of Src and Gsk3β, TSa2i) derivation/culture protocol results in the establishment of androgenetic haploid ESCs (AG-haESCs) with stable DNA methylation at paternal DMRs (differentially DNA methylated regions) up to passage 60 that can efficiently support generating mice upon oocyte injection. We also show coexistence of H3K9me3 marks and ZFP57 bindings with intact DMR methylations. Furthermore, we demonstrate that TSa2i-treated AG-haESCs are a heterogeneous cell population regarding paternal DMR methylation. Strikingly, AG-haESCs with late passages display increased paternal-DMR methylations and improved developmental potential compared to early-passage cells, in part through the enhanced proliferation of H19-DMR hypermethylated cells. Together, we establish AG-haESCs that can long-term maintain paternal imprints.

Piwi proteins and piRNAs in mammalian oocytes and early embryos

Project description:Germ cells of most animals critically depend on piRNAs and Piwi proteins. Surprisingly, piRNAs in mouse oocytes are relatively rare and dispensable. We present compelling evidence for strong Piwi-piRNA expression in oocytes of other mammals. Human fetal oocytes express PIWIL2 and transposon-enriched piRNAs. Oocytes in adult human ovary express PIWIL1 and PIWIL2, while those in bovine ovary just express PIWIL1. In human, macaque and bovine ovaries we find piRNAs that resemble testis-borne pachytene piRNAs. Isolated bovine follicular oocytes were shown to contain abundant, relatively short piRNAs that preferentially target transposable elements. Using label-free quantitative proteome analysis we show that these maturing oocytes strongly and specifically express the thus-far uncharacterized PIWIL3 protein, alongside other known piRNA-pathway components. In bovine early embryos these piRNAs are still abundant, revealing a potential impact of piRNAs on mammalian embryogenesis. Our results reveal unexpected, highly dynamic piRNA pathways in mammalian oocytes and early embryos.

Targeted reprogramming of H3K27me3 resets epigenetic memory in plant paternal chromatin [sperm - third party reanalysis]

Project description:Epigenetic marks are reprogrammed in the gametes to reset genomic potential in the next generation. In mammals, paternal chromatin is extensively reprogrammed through the global erasure of DNA methylation and the exchange of histones with protamines1,2. Precisely how the paternal epigenome is reprogrammed in flowering plants remains unclear since DNA is not demethylated in sperm and histones are retained3,4. Here, we describe a multi-layered mechanism by which H3K27me3 is globally lost from histone-based sperm chromatin in Arabidopsis. This mechanism involves silencing of H3K27me3 ‘writers’, the activity of H3K27me3 ‘erasers’ and deposition of a sperm-specific histone, H3.105, which we show is immune to lysine 27 methylation. The loss of H3K27me3 facilitates transcription of genes essential for spermatogenesis and pre-configures sperm with a chromatin state that forecasts gene expression in the next generation. Thus, plants have evolved a specific mechanism to simultaneously differentiate male gametes and reprogram the paternal epigenome.
