Bacterial Infection Remodels the DNA Methylation Landscape of Human Dendritic Cells (ATAC-Seq)

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark thought to be robust to environmental perturbations on a short time scale. Here, we challenge that view by demonstrating that the infection of human dendritic cells with a live pathogenic bacteria is associated with rapid changes in methylation levels at thousands of loci. We performed an integrated analysis of data on genome-wide DNA methylation, histone mark patterns, chromatin accessibility, and gene expression, before and after infection. We found that infection-induced changes in methylation rarely occur at promoter regions and instead localize to distal enhancer elements. Active demethylation is associated with extensive epigenetic remodeling, including the gain of histone activation marks and the induction of enhancer RNAs, and is strongly predictive of changes in the expression levels of nearby genes. Collectively, our observations show that active, rapid changes in DNA methylation in enhancers play a previously unappreciated role in regulating the transcriptional response of immune cells to infection.

Plasmodium falciparum SET10 is a histone H3 lysine K18 methyltransferase regulating nucleic acid metabolic processes during intraerythrocytic development

Project description:Lifecycle progression of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum requires a finely tuned regulation of gene expression including histone methylation. The histone methyltransferase PfSET10 was previously identified as a histone H3 lysine K4 methyltransferase involved in var gene regulation, making it a prominent antimalarial target. We here investigated the role of PfSET10 in the P. falciparum blood stages in more detail, using tagged PfSET10-knockout (KO) and -knockdown (KD) lines. We demonstrated a nuclear localization of PfSET10 in the P. falciparum blood stages with peak protein levels in schizonts. PfSET10 deficiency resulted in reduced intraerythrocytic growth, but had no effect on gametocyte formation. When the PfSET10-KO line was screened for histone methylation variations, lack of PfSET10 rendered the parasites unable to mark H3K18me1, while no significant changes in the H3K4 methylation status were observed. Comparative transcriptomic profiling of PfSET10-KO schizonts demonstrated the up-regulation of transcripts particularly encoding proteins of erythrocyte invasion and multi gene family proteins, suggesting a suppressive function of the histone methylation mark. TurboID coupled with mass spectrometry further revealed an extensive nuclear PfSET10 interaction network with roles in transcriptional regulation, DNA replication and repair, chromatin remodeling and mRNA processing. Main interactors of PfSET10 included ApiAP2 transcription factors, epigenetic regulators, mediators of RNA polymerase II and DNA replication licensing factors. The combined data pinpoint PfSET10 as a histone H3 lysine K18 methyltransferase regulating DNA and RNA metabolic processes important for intraerythrocytic development of P. falciparum.

Gene activation precedes DNA demethylation in response to infection in human dendritic cells

Project description:DNA methylation is considered to be a relatively stable epigenetic mark. Yet, a growing body of evidence indicates that DNA methylation levels can change rapidly, for example, in innate immune cells facing an infectious agent. Nevertheless, the causal relationship between changes in DNA methylation and gene expression during infection remains to be elucidated. Here, we generated time-course data on DNA methylation, gene expression, and chromatin accessibility patterns during infection of human dendritic cells with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We found that the immune response to infection is accompanied by active demethylation of thousands of CpG sites overlapping distal enhancer elements. However, virtually all changes in gene expression in response to infection occur prior to detectable changes in DNA methylation, indicating that the observed losses in methylation are a downstream consequence of transcriptional activation. Footprinting analysis revealed that immune-related transcription factors (TF), such as NF-κB/Rel, are recruited to enhancer elements prior to the observed losses in methylation, suggesting that DNA demethylation is mediated by TF binding to cis-acting elements. Collectively, our results show that DNA demethylation is not necessarily required for the establishment of the core regulatory program engaged upon infection.

Enhancer Mapping in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Project description:<p>In this study we profile the epigenomic enhancer landscapes of CLL B cells (CD19+/CD5+) harvested from peripheral blood of patients from our Center. Included are results of ChIPseq profiling using chromatin immunoprecipitation of the enhancer histone mark H3K27ac (acetylated lysine 27 on histone H3), and open chromatin profiles using ATAC-seq (assay for transposase accessible chromatin). These profiles are used to define the global enhancer and super enhancer landscape of CLL B cells, and to derive active transcription factor networks associated with this disease. Also included are H3K27ac ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq datasets for non-CLL B cells obtained from the peripheral blood of normal adult donors.</p>
