Allele-specific chromosome conformations induced by a transgene- and locus-dependent imprinting

ABSTRACT: A reporter transgene displayed parental imprinting in mouse embryos when positioned into the Itga6 gene. The strong lacZ pattern of expression scored in embryos inheriting the transgene from a male was not present when transmitted from a female. The transgene exhibited maternal allele-specific DNA hyper-methylation acquired in the germ-line and histone modifications corresponded to profiles described at known imprinted loci. Chromosome conformation analyzes revealed distinct, parent-of-origin interaction domains, with a more compact structure characterizing the maternally inherited repressed allele. The analysis of such transgene insertions with a selective potential to induce imprinting may help understanding the mechanisms identifying particular loci as targets for allele-specific repression.

Data were quantile normalized within 4C/input replicate groups and scaled to medial feature intensity of 100 using TAS software (Affymetrix), generating signal.bar files. For each genomic position, a data set was generated consisting of all (PM-MM) pairs mapping within a sliding window of 250 bp. For Inv(rel5-Itga6) tissues, two independent 4C experiments were performed and merged in the .bar file.

Epigenetic differences between transgenes and endogenous genes promote transgene silencing in plants

Project description:Transgene loci that spontaneously undergo RNA silencing have been instrumental to decipher RNA silencing pathways in plants. In contrast, transgene loci that are stably expressed have been poorly characterized. Here we show that stably expressed transgene loci epigenetically differ from endogenous genes. Impairing the histone H3K4me3 demethylase JMJ14 increases DNA methylation at stably expressed transgene loci but not at endogenous genes, whereas impairing the histone H3K9me2 demethylase IBM1 increases DNA methylation at endogenous genes, but decreases DNA methylation at stably expressed transgene loci. Moreover, impairing IBM1 promotes post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) at stably expressed transgene loci, whereas impairing JMJ14 prevents PTGS induced systemically by grafting onto silenced rootstocks. Given that impairing DNA methylation suppresses the effect of impairing JMJ14 and restores transgene capacity to undergo graft-induced PTGS, we propose that transgene DNA methylation prevents PTGS, likely by limiting the transcription of aberrant RNA by-products that are transformed into dsRNA by cellular RNA-dependent RNA polymerases to activate PTGS.

Allelic histone-to-DNA methylation switch establishes secondary DMR to maintain noncanonical imprinting

Project description:Faithful maintenance of genomic imprinting is essential for mammalian development. While germline DNA methylation-dependent (canonical) imprinting is relatively stable during development, the recently discovered oocyte-derived H3K27me3-mediated noncanonical imprinting is mostly transient in early embryos with only a few genes maintain imprinted expression in the extraembryonic lineage. How these few noncanonical imprinted genes maintain their extraembryonic-specific imprinting is unknown. Here we report that maintenance of extraembryonic-specific noncanonical imprinting requires maternal allele-specific de novo DNA methylation (secondary differentially methylation regions; DMRs) at implantation. The secondary DMRs are located at the gene promoters with paternal allele-specific H3K4me3 preformed during preimplantation development. Importantly, genetic ablation of Eed and DNA methyltransferases revealed that both maternal H3K27me3 and zygotic Dnmt3a/3b are required for establishing secondary DMRs and for maintaining noncanonical imprinting. Thus, our study not only reveals the mechanism underlying maintenance of noncanonical imprinting, but also sheds light on how histone modifications in oocytes and preimplantation embryos may shape the secondary DMRs in post-implantation embryos.

Allelic genome-wide maps of open chromatin state in zygotes and early embryo

Project description:Mammalian sperm and oocytes have different epigenetic landscapes and are organized in different fashion. Following fertilization, the initially distinct parental epigenomes become largely equalized with the exception of certain loci including imprinting control regions. How parental chromatin becomes equalized and how imprinted genes escape this wave of reprogramming is largely unknown. Here we generated high-resolution maps of parental allele-specific DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs) in zygotes and morula embryos by using physically-isolated parental pronuclei, as well as parthenogenetic (PG) and androgenetic (AG) embryos. Allelic transcriptome analyses revealed a high correlation between allelic DHSs and allelic gene expression not only in known imprinted genes but also in dozens of genes not previously known to be imprinted. Interestingly, we found that many paternally- expressed genes harbor paternal allele-specific DHSs (Ps-DHSs) that are highly enriched for histone H3K27 tri-methylation (H3K27me3) but devoid of DNA methylation in maternal allele. Importantly, ectopic removal of the H3K27me3 turns Ps-DHSs into bi- allelic DHSs and induces maternal allele derepression in genes that include maternal DNA methylation-independent imprinted genes Gab1, Sfmbt2, Slc38a4, and Phf17 (also known as Jade1). Thus, our study not only reveals parental allele-specific chromatin accessibility of preimplantation embryos, but also identifies maternal H3K27me3 as a DNA methylation- independent mechanism for genomic imprinting.

Characterization of the Imprinting Signature of Mouse Embryo Fibroblasts by RNA Deep Sequencing

Project description:Mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) closely resemble mouse embryos and are convenient sources for biochemical studies when cell number may be limiting from mouse embryos. To derive the imprinting signature of MEFs and potentially detect novel imprinted genes we characterized them using strand- and allele-specific RNA deep sequencing. We used Sequenom allelotyping in embryo and adult organs to verify parental allele-specific expression patterns. We found correct parental allele-specific transcription of 32 known ubiquitously imprinted genes in MEFs. Our analysis did not reveal any novel imprinted genes in MEFs, but detected extended parental allele-specific transcription in several known imprinted domains: maternal allele-specific transcription downstream of Grb10 and downstream of Meg3, Rtl1as and Rian in the Dlk1-Dio3 cluster, an imprinted domain implicated in development. We detected paternal allele-specific transcription downstream of Nespas, Peg3, Peg12 and Snurf/Snrpn. These imprinted transcript extensions were not unique to MEFs, but were also present in other somatic cells. Their 5’ end points did not carry opposing chromatin marks or parental allele-specific DNA methylation, suggesting that their parental allele-specific transcription is under the control of the extended genes. Based on the imprinting signature of MEFs, they provide valid models for understanding the biochemical aspects of genomic imprinting. Strand-specific and parental allele-specific RNA-seq was done in female mouse embryo fibroblasts.

Diverse epigenetic mechanisms maintain parental imprints within the embryonic and extraembryonic lineages

Project description:Genomic imprinting and X chromosome inactivation (XCI) require epigenetic mechanisms to direct allele-specific expression. Despite their critical roles in embryonic development, how universal epigenetic regulators coordinate these specific tasks at single loci or across chromosome scales remains understudied. Here, we systematically disrupted essential epigenetic pathways within polymorphic F1 embryos to examine canonical and non-canonical genomic imprinting as well as X chromosome inactivation. We find that DNA methylation and Polycomb group repressors are both indispensable for autosomal imprinting, albeit at distinct gene sets. Moreover, the extraembryonic ectoderm relies on a broader spectrum of imprinting mechanisms, including non-canonical targeting of maternal endogenous retrovirus (ERV) driven promoters by the H3K9 methyltransferase G9a. We further utilize our data to identify Polycomb dependent and independent gene clusters on the imprinted X chromosome, which appears to reflect distinct domains of Xist-mediated suppression. From our data, we assemble a comprehensive inventory of the epigenetic mechanisms utilized in eutherian mammals to maintain parent-specific imprinting, including an expanded view of the placental lineage that comprises multiple unique pathways.

Role of N-α-acetyltransferase 10 Protein in DNA Methylation and Genomic Imprinting

Project description:Genomic imprinting is an allelic gene expression phenomenon primarily controlled by allele-specific DNA methylation at the imprinting control region (ICR). How allele-specific DNA methylation at ICR is regulated is largely unknown. Mammalian N-α-acetyltransferase 10 protein (Naa10p) catalyzes N-α-acetylation of nascent proteins. Mutation of human Naa10p is linked to severe developmental defects and mental retardation, including the Ogden syndrome. Here we report that Naa10-null mice display partial embryonic lethality, growth retardation, brain disorder and maternal-effect lethality, phenotypes commonly observed in defective genomic imprinting. Genome-wide analyses reveal global DNA hypomethylation and enriched dysregulation of imprinted genes in Naa10p-null embryos and ES cells. Naa10p regulates global DNA methylation by stimulating DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) activity, while maintaining imprinted allele methylation by binding to GCXGXG and recruits Dnmt1. Clinical mutation of Naa10p disrupts its H19-ICR binding and Dnmt1 recruitment. Our study thus links Naa10p mutation-associated human diseases to defective DNA methylation and genomic imprinting.
