Zfp57 inactivation illustrates the relationship between DNA methylation and imprinted gene expression in mouse neural precursor cells

ABSTRACT: ZFP57 interacts with the germline-derived differentially methylated regions (DMRs) of imprinted genes, and is required to maintain DMR methylation in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Although DNA methylation has a key role in maintaining genomic imprinting, several imprinted genes are controlled by different mechanisms, and a comprehensive study of the relationship between DMR methylation and imprinted gene expression is lacking. To address this issue, we differentiated wild-type and Zfp57 -/- hybrid mouse ESCs into neural precursor cells (NPCs) and evaluated allelic expression of imprinted genes. In Zfp57-mutant NPCs, we observed loss of allelic bias of all the 35 genes that were imprinted in wild-type cells, demonstrating that Zfp57-dependent methylation is required to globally maintain gene expression imprinting. Analysis of bulk expression showed that most of the genes expressed from the non-methylated chromosome were up-regulated, and most of those expressed from the methylated chromosome were down-regulated in mutant cells, but also that several other imprinted genes acquiring biallelic expression were not significantly affected, suggesting the existence of compensatory mechanisms that control their RNA level. Since neuronal differentiation was impaired in Zfp57-mutant cells, this study also indicates that deregulation of imprinted genes and/or other ZFP57-target non-imprinted genes is incompatible with proper neurogenesis.

Allele-specific binding of ZFP57 in the regulation of imprinted and mono-allelic expression

Project description:Selective maintenance of genomic methylation imprints during pre-implantation development is required for parental origin-specific expression of imprinted genes. The Kruppel-like zinc finger protein ZFP57 acts as a factor necessary for maintaining the DNA methylation memory at multiple imprinting control regions (ICRs) in early mouse embryos and ES cells. Maternal-zygotic deletion of ZFP57 in mice presents a highly penetrant phenotype with no animals surviving to birth. In addition, several cases of human transient neonatal diabetes (TND) are associated with somatic mutations in ZFP57 coding sequence. Here we comprehensively map sequence-specific ZFP57 binding sites in an allele-specific manner using hybrid ES cell lines from reciprocal crosses between C57BL/6J and Cast/EiJ mice assigning allele specificity to approximately two thirds of all binding sites. While half of these are biallelic and include ERV targets, the rest show mono-allelic binding based either on parental-origin or on genetic background of the allele. Parental-origin allele-specific binding was methylation-dependent and mapped only to imprinted DMRs established in the germline (gDMRs). No binding was evident at secondary somatically-derived DMRs. ZFP57-bound gDMRs can predict imprinted gene expression and we identify new imprinted genes, including the Fkbp6 gene with a critical function in mouse male germ cell development. Genetic-background specific sequence differences also influence ZFP57 binding. We show that genetic variation that disrupts the consensus binding motif and its methylation is associated with mono-allelic expression of neighbouring genes. The work described here uncovers further roles for ZFP57 mediated regulation of genomic imprinting and identifies a novel mechanism for genetically determined mono-allelic gene expression. Input and Zfp57 CHiP-Seq profiles of hybrid Black6/Cast ES cells were generated by sequencing using the Illumina GAIIx platform.

Methylation status in human sperm

Project description:Genomic imprinting describes the expression of a subset of mammalian genes from one parental chromosome. The parent-of-origin specific expression of imprinted genes relies on DNA methylation of CpG-dinucleotides at differentially methylated regions (DMRs) during gametogenesis. We identified the paternally methylated DMR at human chromosome 2 near the imprinted ZDBF2 gene using a methylated-DNA immunoprecipitation-on-chip (meDIP-on-chip) method applied to DNA from sperm. To analyze whether or not the GPR1-ZDBF2 DMR is conserved in human genome, methylation analysis of human sperm sample was performed using MeDIP and genome tiling array.

MLID imprinting disorders

Project description:Genomic imprinting is the parent-of-origin-specific allelic transcriptional silencing observed in mammals, which is governed by DNA methylation established in the gametes and maintained throughout the development. The frequency and extent of epimutations associated with the nine reported imprinting syndromes varies because it is evident that aberrant preimplantation maintenance of imprinted differentially methylated regions (DMRs) may affect multiple loci. Using a custom Illumina GoldenGate array targeting 27 imprinted DMRs, we profiled allelic methylation in 8 imprinting defect patients.

Establishment of monkey imprinted differentially methylated regions map by comparative analysis of parthenogenetic haploid embryonic stem cells and sperms

Project description:Genomic imprinting is a important biological process, which leads to parental specific gene expressions. Improper gene imprinting results in several developmental abnormalities, cancer and other diseases. Studies in mice indicated genomic imprinting establishment relied on parental allele-specific DNA methylation during gametogenesis. Despite the fact that genomic imprinting is highly conserved in mammalian, the species specific pattern exists. Until now, except that of in mouse, informations about imprinting patterns is little, especially in primates. Through generation genome-wide 5mC and 5hmC profiles for two types of haploid genomes from rhesus monkeys, including parthenogenetic haploid ESCs ( PG ha ESCs) (derived from rhesus monkey parthenogenetic embryos) and sperms. We clearly characterized and distinguished methylome (5mC) from hydroxymethylome (5hmC)(which can not discriminate from methylome in traditional bisulfite (BS) sequencing) in haploid genomes. Based on these information, we determined distribution patterns of 5mC and 5hmC in ha ESCs and sperms. Interestingly, both 5hmC levels and distribution patterns were similar in ha ESCs and sperms, and 5hmC which is enriched in the regions with low 5mC frequency. Meanwhile through comparing DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation status between sperms and ha ESCs, we first provided a fundamental information of monkey imprinted differentially methylated regions (DMRs) distribution in monkey chromosomes. Second, we observed that DMRs did not overlap with hydroxymethylated regions (DMR or DhMR), suggesting that establishment of imprinted regions was not interfered by 5hmC. Our results demonstrate DNA methylation profiling of PG ha ESCs and sperms can be uesed as a powerful and effective method to map and characterize imprinted regions in non-human primates genome.

A Novel Approach Identifies New Differentially Methylated Regions (DMRs) Associated with Imprinted Genes

Project description:Imprinted genes are critical for normal human growth and neurodevelopment. We developed a strategy to identify new DNA differentially methylated regions (DMRs), a hallmark of imprinted genes. Using genome-wide methylation profiling, candidate DMRs were selected by identifying CpGs with putative allelic differential methylation in normal biparental tissues. In parallel, we looked for parent of origin-specific DNA methylation patterns in paternally derived human androgenetic complete hydatidiform mole (AnCHM), and maternally derived mature cystic ovarian teratoma (MCT). Using this approach, we found known DMRs associated with imprinted genomic regions as well as new DMRs for known imprinted genes, NAP1L5 and ZNF597. Most importantly, novel candidate imprinted genes were identified. The paternally methylated DMR for one candidate, AXL, a receptor tyrosine kinase, was validated by methylation analyses in humans. Further validation in mouse embryos showed that Axl was expressed preferentially from the maternal allele in a DNA methylation–dependent manner. We have analyzed 3 androgenetic complete hydatidiform mole (AnCHM), 16 white blood cell (WBC), 1 mature cystic ovarian teratoma (MCT), 5 placenta, and 1 lymphoblastoid cell line paternal UPD4 sample

Transcription profiling of mouse G9a-/- knockouts vs controls reveals G9a histone methyltransferase maintains genomic imprinting IN THE mouse placenta.

Project description:Whereas DNA methylation is essential for genomic imprinting, the importance of histone methylation in the allelic repression of imprinted genes is unclear. âImprinting control regionsâ (ICRs), however, are consistently marked by histone H3 K9 methylation on their DNA-methylated allele. In the placenta, the paternal silencing along the Kcnq1 domain on distal chromosome 7 also correlates with the presence of H3-K9 methylation, but imprinted repression at these genes is maintained independently of DNA methylation. To explore which histone methyltransferase (HMT) could mediate the allelic H3-K9 methylation on distal chromosome 7, and at ICRs, we generated mouse conceptuses deficient for the SET-domain protein G9a. We find that in the embryo and placenta, the differential DNA methylation at ICRs and imprinted genes is maintained in the absence of G9a. Accordingly, in embryos, imprinted gene expression is unchanged at the domains analysed, in spite of a global loss of H3-K9 di-methylation (H3K9me2). In contrast, the placenta-specific imprinting of genes on distal chromosome 7 is lost in the absence of G9, and this correlates with a loss of H3K9me2 and H3K9me3. These findings provide the first in vivo evidence for the involvement of a SET domain protein in imprinting and highlight the importance of histone lysine methylation rather than DNA methylation in the maintenance of imprinting in the trophoblast lineage. Experiment Overall Design: Number of samples: four (two biologically replicate G9a-/- pooled placentae samples, and two biologically replicate wildtype pooled placentae samples). The first G9a-/- and wildtype replicates were used to hybridize Affymetrix MOE430A and MOE430B arrays (four arrays total). The second replicates were used to hybridize Affymetrix Mouse430_2 arrays (two arrays total).

A bipartite element with allele-specific functions safeguards DNA methylation imprints at the Dlk1-Dio3 locus [4C-seq]

Project description:Dysregulation of imprinted gene loci also referred to as loss of imprinting (LOI) can result in severe developmental defects and other diseases, but the molecular mechanisms that ensure imprint stability remain incompletely understood. Here, we dissect the functional components of the imprinting control region of the essential Dlk1-Dio3 locus (called IG-DMR) and the mechanism by which they ensure imprinting maintenance. Using pluripotent stem cells carrying an allele-specific reporter system, we demonstrate that the IG-DMR consists of two antagonistic regulatory elements: a paternally methylated CpG-island that prevents the activity of Tet dioxygenases and a maternally unmethylated regulatory element, which serves as a non-canonical enhancer and maintains expression of the maternal Gtl2 lncRNA by precluding de novo DNA methyltransferase function. Targeted genetic or epigenetic editing of these elements leads to LOI with either bi-paternal or bi-maternal expression patterns and respective allelic changes in DNA methylation and 3D chromatin topology of the entire Dlk1-Dio3 locus. Although the targeted repression of either IG-DMR or Gtl2 promoter is sufficient to cause LOI, the stability of LOI phenotype depends on the IG-DMR status, suggesting a functional hierarchy. These findings establish the IG-DMR as a novel type of bipartite control element and provide mechanistic insights into the control of Dlk1-Dio3 imprinting by allele-specific restriction of the active DNA (de)methylation machinery.
