CpG island-specific demethylation pathway in ES cells

ABSTRACT: Following erasure in the early animal embryo, a new bimodal DNA methylation pattern is regenerated at the time of implantation in each individual through a wave of generalized de novo modification with CpG islands specifically left unmethylated. In this paper, we ask whether CpG islands are “protected” from de novo methylation or, alternatively, acquire their unmodified state through “demethylation.” Using a genetic approach, we demonstrate that ES cells indeed have the ability to specifically demethylate CpG islands through pathways involving hydroxymethylation (Tet1), deamination (Aid), glycosylation (Mbd4) and excision repair (Gadd45a) genes. Surprisingly, this demethylation system is not actually necessary for generating the overall bimodal methylation pattern in ES cells. This general activity does, however, appear to be involved both in somatic cell reprogramming, as well as the normal methylation reprogramming that takes place in the early embryo.

CpG-methylated genomic DNA was enriched using a methyl-DNA immunoprecipitation (mDIP) assay. DNA from the input and bound (enriched) DNA for each sample were labeled and hybridized on the array to define the methylation state of each region.

A Primary Role of TET Proteins in Establishment and Maintenance of De Novo Bivalency at CpG Islands of Developmental Genes

Project description:TET protein-catalyzed 5mC oxidation not only creates novel DNA modifications such as 5hmC, but also initiates active or passive DNA demethylation. However, the TETsâ function in crosstalk with specific histone modifications is largely elusive. Here, we show that TET2-mediated DNA demethylation plays a primary role in the de novo establishment and maintenance of H3K4me3/H3K27me3 bivalent domain underlying the methylated DNA CpG islands (CGIs). Overexpression of wild type (WT) but not catalytic inactive mutant (Mut) TET2 in TET-low-expressing cells results in increase of 5hmC level and accompanying DNA demethylation at a subset of CGIs. Importantly, this is sufficient to create de novo bivalent domains at these loci. Genome-wide analysis reveals that these de novo synthesized bivalent domains are largely associated with a subset of key developmental gene promoters, which are often located within CpG islands that are previously hyper-methylated and silenced. On the other hand, depletion of Tet1 and Tet2 in mouse ES cells results in an apparent loss of H3K27me3 at bivalent domains, which are located within CGIs and associated with a particular set of key developmental gene promoters. Collectively, these data suggest that TET proteins have a primary role in charge of regulating the crosstalk between two key epigenetic mechanisms, DNA methylation and histone methylation (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3), particularly at a subset of CpG islands associated with developmental genes. We examined H3K4me3,H3K27me3,5mC and 5hmC in 293T and mES cell types,using Illumina Hiseq2500.

CXXC5 stabilizes DNA methylation patterns in mouse embryonic stem cells [Bisulfite-Seq]

Project description:Mammalian genomes encode a family of 12 proteins that contain a CXXC zinc finger domain. These domains are known to bind to unmethylated DNA sequences rich in CpG dinucleotides. Most members of this family are large multi-domain proteins that function in the control of DNA methylation and histone methylation patterns. CXXC5 is a smaller member of the family, along with its closest homologue CXXC4. These two proteins lack known catalytic domains. Here we have characterized CXXC5 in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. We show that CXXC5 is a nuclear protein that interacts with 5-methylcytosine oxidases (TET proteins). Removal of CXXC5 from ES cells leads to very few changes in gene expression. CXXC5 extensively colocalizes with TET1 and TET2 at CpG islands. CXXC5 inactivation leads to a substantial reduction of DNA methylation levels that affects all genomic compartments including genic and intergenic regions and CpG island shores. No hypermethylation of CpG islands was observed. We propose a model in which CXXC5 serves as an anchor for TET proteins at CpG islands. In the absence of CXXC5, the 5-methylcytosine oxidases become dislodged from CpG islands and are enabled to induce genome-scale DNA demethylation. Thus, CXXC5 serves as a stabilizer of DNA methylation patterns.

DNA hypermethylation encroachment at CpG island borders in cancer is predisposed by H3K4 monomethylation [WGBS_Hs]

Project description:DNA methylation plays a key role in demarcation of regulatory regions, including promoter-associated CpG islands. While CpG islands are typically maintained in an unmethylated state in normal cells, a proportion of CpG islands are subject to hypermethylation in cancer cells. It still remains elusive how the exquisite demarcation of the bimodal methylation state is established and maintained at the CpG island flanks and conversely what triggers the erosion of CpG island DNA methylation in tumorigenesis. Here, we applied whole-genome bisulphite sequencing to study the comprehensive methylation patterns of prostate normal and cancer tissues. Alongside we performed TET-assisted bisulphite sequencing to study genome-wide DNA hydroxymethylation patterns of normal prostate and prostate cancer tissues.

The proline and serine rich protein PROSER1 mediates O-GlcNAcylation of TET2 to regulate DNA demethylation on UTX-dependent enhancers and CpG islands [hMeDIP-seq]

Project description:DNA methylation at enhancers and CpG islands usually leads to gene repression, which is counteracted by DNA demethylation through the TET protein family. However, how TET enzymes are recruited and regulated at these genomic loci is not fully understood. Here, we identify TET2 and a previously undescribed proline and serine rich protein, PROSER1 as interactors of UTX, a component of the enhancer-associated MLL3/4 complexes. Affinity purification of PROSER1 resulted in the identification of OGT and TET1-3. We find that PROSER1 mediates the interaction between OGT and TET2, thus promoting TET2 O-GlcNAcylation and protein stability. Additionally, PROSER1, UTX, OGT, and TET1/2 colocalize on many genomic elements genome-wide. Loss of PROSER1 results in lower enrichment of UTX, and TET1/2 at enhancers and CpG islands, with a concomitant increase in DNA methylation and transcriptional downregulation of associated target genes and increased DNA hypermethylation encroachment at H3K4me1-predisposed CpG islands. Taken together, this study describes for the first time a regulator of TET2 O-GlcNAcylation and its implications in mediating DNA demethylation at UTX-dependent enhancers and CpG islands.
