Project description:H2A.B is a unique histone H2A variant that shares only 40 ~ 50 % sequence identity with canonical H2A. It has only been identified in mammals and has quickly evolved with remarkable sequence diversity among different species. H2A.B is ubiquitously expressed in most cells and tissues. It is mainly deposited in gene body region. The localization of H2A.B is associated with methylated CpG islands in mouse ES cells. H2A.B facilitates transcription elongation to go through methylated CpG islands in the gene bodies. One typical example is that H2A.B regulates transcription elongation at imprinted loci. We found H2A.B enriched in some methylated loci. Using ChIP-seq and MeDIP-seq, we test the correlation of H2A.B and DNA methylation.

Project description:Comparing genetic differences between human and nonhuman primates is a fundamental method to dissect the molecular mechanisms underlying the improved human cognitive ability during evolution. Besides DNA sequence divergences, gene regulation differences between human and nonhuman primates have been shown to be more prominent. DNA methylation is an important type of epigenetic modification that plays critical roles in gene regulations. Trans-generational inheritances of DNA methylation in mammals are widely accepted, suggesting the evolutionary role of DNA methylation. To test if DNA methylation has contributed to the evolution of human brain, with the use of MeDIP-Chip and SEQUENOM MassARRAY, we conducted a systematic analysis to identify the differentially methylated DNA regions (DMRs) between human and rhesus macaque in the cerebral cortex. We first identified a total of 150 candidate DMRs by the MeDIP-Chip method, among which 6 DMRs were confirmed by the SEQUENOM MassARRAY method. And 4 of them were further confirmed using independent samples, while the other 2 were failed to test due to technical difficulties. All the 6 DMRs were in CpG islands or close to CpG islands, and a MIR3 repeat element was located in one DMR, but no repeats was found in the other 5 DMRs. For the 6 DMR genes, most have neural related functions, and their proteins tend to be conserved. Additionally, we found the DNA sequence changes at CpG sites contributed to the species-specific DNA methylation. Our study shed light on the researches of trans-generational epigenetic inheritance and the roles of DNA methylation in evolution, especially human evolution.

Project description:Methylated DNA immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (MeDIP-seq) has the potential to identify changes in DNA methylation important in cancer development. In order to understand the role of epigenetic modulation in the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) we have applied MeDIP-seq to the DNA of 12 AML patients and 4 normal bone marrows. This analysis revealed leukemia-associated differentially methylated regions that included gene promoters, gene bodies, CpG islands and CpG island shores. Two genes (SPHKAP and DPP6) with significantly methylated promoters were of interest and further analysis of their expression showed them to be repressed in AML. We also demonstrated considerable cytogenetic subtype specificity in the methylomes affecting different genomic features. Significantly distinct patterns of hypomethylation of certain interspersed repeat elements were associated with cytogenetic subtypes. The methylation patterns of members of the SINE family tightly clustered all leukemic patients with an enrichment of Alu repeats with a high CpG density (P < 0.0001). We were able to demonstrate significant inverse correlation between intragenic interspersed repeat sequence methylation and gene expression with SINEs showing the strongest inverse correlation (R2 = 0.7). We conclude that the alterations in DNA methylation that accompany the development of AML affect not only the promoters, but also the non-promoter genomic features, with significant demethylation of certain interspersed repeat DNA elements being associated with AML cytogenetic subtypes. MeDIP-seq data were validated using bisulfite pyrosequencing and the Infinium array. Examination of DNA methylation of 12 AML patients versus normal bone marrow from 4 healthy donors
