DMF-scMT-seq Linking Methylome and Transcriptome within Single Cells with Digital Microfluidics

ABSTRACT: Single-cell joint analysis of methylome and transcriptome reveals how the methylation regulates the transcriptional activity. However, traditional bench-top protocols for single-cell DNA methylation and RNA transcription co-detection are labor-intensive, cost-ineffective and contaminant-prone. Herein we establish DMF-scMT-seq, a highly-efficient and cost-effective method to simultaneously analyze single-cell DNA methylation and transcriptional activity based on digital microfluidics. DMF-scMT-seq automates the workflow of single-cell isolation, cellular hypotonic lysis, nucleic acid separation and methylome/transcriptome library construction in a contactless and addressable way. The system ensures high accuracy (R>0.85), high gene detection ability (14697 genes per cell at 4 million sequencing depth), and high CpG coverage (677198 CpG sites per cell at 1 million sequencing depth). By using DMF-scMT-seq, the relationship of DNA methylation and RNA transcription under different genomic contexts is resolved. We further apply DMF-scMT-seq to study the dynamics of transcription regulation with methylation-inhibiting anti-tumor Decitabine, and identify the methylated promoter/gene body driven genes in response to Decitabine treatment for the first time. It is anticipated that DMF-scMT-seq provides the potential to characterize the epigenetic regulatory network in other biological single-cell systems.

Genome-wide profiling of DNA methylation at single-base resolution based on MeDIP-bisulfite high-throughput sequencing and ridge regression (MB)

Project description:Unraveling complexity of DNA methylome is essential to decipher DNA methylation mechanism in life. However, this has been subjected to technological constraints to balance between cost and accurate measurement of the DNA methylation level. In this study, by innovatively introducing C-hydroxylmethylated adapters, we have developed MeDIP-Bisulfite sequencing (MB-seq), which could obtain DNA methylome of repertoire CpGs at single-base resolution. We found MB-seq only costs 10% of MethylC-seq, but covers 85% of total CpGs in human genome. Unlike absolute methylation levels determined by MethylC-seq and RRBS, MB-seq presented relative methylation levels that are linearly inflated. This has enlightened us to develop a MB-seq corresponding correction method for methylation level based on ridge regression, which integrates the data of MB-seq and RRBS to predict the methylation level of total 28.2 million CpGs on human genome with high accuracy (Pearson correlation coefficient, PCC=0.90). Moreover, by employing MB-seq, we generated the DNA methylome of an ovarian epithelial cell line (T29) and its oncogenic counterpart (T29H), respectively. After ridge regression, we identified 131,790 differential methylation regions (DMRs) with high accuracy between T29 and T29H, far more than 7,567 obtained from RRBS. Taken together, our result demonstrated that the MB-seq combined with ridge regression is a wide applicable approach for profiling of DNA methylome.

Digital-scRRBS: A cost-effective, highly sensitive and automated single-cell methylome analysis platform via digital microfluidics

Project description:Single-cell DNA methylation sequencing is a powerful method for elucidating important physiological and pathological processes, identifying cell subpopulations, and constructing epigenetic regulatory networks. Existing methylome analyses typically require substantial starting materials, complex operations, and high cost and are susceptible to contamination. These problems have impeded the development of single-cell methylome technology for rare cell profiling. In this work, we report Digital Microfluidics-based single-cell Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (Digital-scRRBS), the first microfluidics-based single-cell methylome library construction platform, which is an automatic, efficient, reproducible, and reagent-economy approach to dissect the single-cell methylome. Taking advantage of our uniquely designed digital microfluidic chip, we realized efficient single-cell isolation in less than 15 seconds. Furthermore, with the advantages of a confined environment, superhydrophobic surface, and nano-scale reaction volume of our digital microfluidic chip, more amplifiable DNA is retained for library construction compared to other approaches. We have successfully constructed single-cell methylation sequencing libraries with a unique genome mapping rate of up to 53.6%, covering up to 2.26 million CpG sites. The application of Digital-scRRBS allows us to discriminate cell identity and dynamically monitor DNA methylation levels during drug administration. Digital-scRRBS provides the technology for widespread application of single-cell methylation methods as a versatile tool for epigenetic analysis in rare cells and highly heterogeneous populations.

SINEultaneous profiling of epigenetic heterogeneity and transcriptome in single cells [PBAT]

Project description:Global changes in DNA methylation are observed in several developmental and disease contexts, and single-cell analyses are beginning to reveal the heterogeneous regulation of these processes. However, these studies are limited by the poor alignment rates and high sequencing demands associated with single-cell analysis of DNA methylation. We present single-cell transposable element methylation sequencing (scTEM-seq) for cost-effective estimation of global DNA methylation levels. By targeting high-copy LINE-1 and SINE Alu elements, we achieve amplicon bisulphite sequencing with thousands of annotated loci covered in each scTEM-seq library. Parallel transcriptome analysis of the same single cell is also performed to link global DNA methylation heterogeneity with transcriptional consequences. We apply scTEM-seq to KG1a acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells, and primary cells from an AML patient. Treatment of KG1a cells with the hypomethylating agent, decitabine, induces global DNA methylation heterogeneity associated with altered expression of viral response pathways. We also compare global levels of DNA methylation to expression of transposable elements and find a predominance of negative correlations in both the KG1a and patient cells. Finally, we observe co-ordinated upregulation of many transposable elements in a sub-set of decitabine treated KG1a cells. These observations suggest that viral mimicry processes important for epigenetic therapy and tumour immunogenicity are variably active in AML cells. By linking global DNA methylation heterogeneity with transcriptional consequences, scTEM-seq will refine our understanding of epigenetic regulation in cancer and beyond.
