Project description:Many studies have demonstrated that somatic cell differentiation during development is accompanied by extensive demethylation of specific sites relevant to each cell type. Although the mechanism of this process has not yet been elucidated, it is likely to involve the conversion of 5mC to 5hmC by Tet enzymes [Ziller, 2013 #5787]. In this paper, we show that a Tet2/Tet3 conditional knockout at early stages of B-cell development largely prevents lineage-specific programmed demethylation events. This lack of demethylation affects the expression of nearby B-cell lineage genes, probably by inhibiting enhancer activity, thus causing defects in B- cell differentiation. Our studies represent the first demonstration that tissue-specific demethylation may be necessary for proper development in vivo. DNA methylation profile of different developmental stages of B-cells isolated from wild-type or Tet2/Tet3 single and double knock out. The data was generated using the RRBS protocol followed by deep sequncing. RNAseq was performed on these samples as well.

Project description:With the exception of imprinted genes and certain repeats, DNA methylation is globally erased during pre-implantation development. Recent studies have suggested that Tet3-mediated oxidation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and DNA replication-dependent dilution both contribute to global paternal DNA demethylation, but demethylation of the maternal genome occurs via replication. Here we present genome-scale DNA methylation maps for both the paternal and maternal genomes of Tet3-depleted and/or DNA replication-inhibited zygotes. In both genomes, we found that inhibition of DNA replication blocks DNA demethylation independently from Tet3 function, and that Tet3 facilitates DNA demethylation by coupling with DNA replication. For both, our data indicate that replication-dependent dilution is the major contributor to demethylation, but Tet3 plays an important role, particularly at certain loci. Our study therefore both defines the respective functions of Tet3 and DNA replication in paternal DNA demethylation and reveals an unexpected contribution of Tet3 to demethylation of the maternal genome. In this data set, we include RNA-Seq data of mouse 2-cell embryos and blastocysts derived from both wildtype and Tet3-null oocytes

Project description:The epigenomes of mammalian sperm and oocytes, characterized by gamete-specific 5-methylcytosine (5mC) patterns, are reprogrammed during early embryogenesis to establish full developmental potential. Previous studies have suggested that the paternal genome is actively demethylated in the zygote while the maternal genome undergoes subsequent passive demethylation via DNA replication during cleavage. Active demethylation is known to depend on 5mC oxidation by Tet dioxygenases and excision of oxidized bases by thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG). Here we show that both maternal and paternal genomes undergo widespread active and passive demethylation in zygotes before the first mitotic division. Passive demethylation was blocked by the replication inhibitor aphidicolin, and active demethylation was abrogated by deletion of Tet3 in both pronuclei. At actively demethylated loci, 5mCs were processed to unmodified cytosines. Surprisingly, the demethylation process was unaffected by the deletion of TDG from the zygote, suggesting the existence of other demethylation mechanisms downstream of Tet3-mediated oxidation. The dataset includes RRBS anlysis of 2 MII oocyte samples, 3 WT female pronuclei samples PN3-4 stage, 2 Tet3 KO female pronuclei samples and 2 Aphidicolin treated female pronuclei samples. Also as male counterpart, a Sperm sample, 2 WT male pronuclei samples PN3-4 stage, 2 Tet3 KO male pronuclei samples and 2 Aphidicolin treated male pronuclei samples were included.

Project description:The epigenomes of mammalian sperm and oocytes, characterized by gamete-specific 5-methylcytosine (5mC) patterns, are reprogrammed in early embryogenesis to establish full developmental potential. It is broadly accepted that the paternal genome is actively demethylated in the zygote while the maternal genome undergoes passive demethylation thanks to DNA replication over the subsequent cleavage divisions. Here we reveal that both maternal and paternal genomes undergo widespread active and passive demethylation in the pronuclear zygote before the first mitotic division. Whereas the passive demethylation requires DNA replication, the active demethylation relies on enzymatic oxidation of 5mC, as deletion of the DNA dioxygenase, Tet3, but not the inhibition of replication, blocks the active demethylation. At actively demethylated loci, 5mCs appear to be processed to unmodified cytosines in a manner independent of the DNA glycosylase TDG. These observations suggest the occurrence of genuine active demethylation in both parental genomes following fertilization.

Project description:Dynamic DNA methylation and demethylation regulate gene expression during development. While DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) establish and maintain cytosine methylation patterns, Ten-eleven translocation (Tet) dioxygenases catalyze sequential oxidation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to promote demethylation. Target-specific 5mC oxidation requires precise regulation of the Tet enzymatic activity. However, the mechanism underlying their activity control remains largely unexplored. Here we show a large low-complexity domain (LCD), present within the catalytic domain of Tet3, functions to repress the dioxygenase activity. Recombinant LCD-deleted Tet3 exhibits enhanced activity to convert 5mC into oxidized species. Deletion of the Tet3 LCD in mouse oocytes renders 5mC oxidation indiscriminately across the genome, leading to most prominently the derepression of ERVK retrotransposons and upregulation of adjacent genes. The extensive 5mC oxidation is associated with impairments in oocyte development. These findings suggest an intrinsic auto-regulatory mechanism of Tet3 dioxygenase operating to ensure a tight regulation of its enzymatic activity to achieve spatiotemporal specificity of methylome reprogramming during oocyte development.

Project description:Fertilization triggers a global erasure of 5-methylcytosine from paternal DNA as part of extensive epigenetic reprogramming during the transition from gametic specialization to totipotency. This active removal has been shown to involve oxidation by TET3, but the targeting of this pathway and the wider context of demethylation remain poorly understood. We optimized a novel technique for whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and applied it to wild-type and TET3-deficient zygotes, using SNPs to access paternal alleles. As the great majority of sperm-contributed methylation lies outside the CpG islands (CGIs) and promoters analysed to date, these genome-wide methylation profiles allow paternal methylation trajectories in the zygote to be comprehensively examined for the first time. This global view revealed that in addition to pervasive loss of methylation from intergenic sequences and most repetitive elements, gene bodies constitute a major target of zygotic demethylation. Methylation loss is associated with zygotic genome activation, and at gene bodies is also linked to increased transcriptional noise in the early embryo. Our data maps the primary contribution of oxidative demethylation to a subset of gene bodies and single-copy intergenic sequences, and implicates the action of redundant pathways at many loci. We further uncover a novel function for TET3 in protection from de novo methylation at CGIs and promoters. This work adds new breadth to our understanding of the molecular events involved in reprogramming gametic identity following fertilization. Three independent collections of zygotes were performed for each genotype (control and TET3 deletion), giving a total of 225 control and 237 TET3 deletion zygotes, of which 120 and 129 were derived from 129S2/SvHsd studs for control and TET3 samples, respectively. Zygotes were pooled and whole-genome bisulfite libraries were prepared using a post-bisulfite adaptor tagging strategy optimized from (Miura et al. Nucleic Acids Research 2012, 40:e136)
