Project description:It has widely accepted that 5-methylcytosine is the only form of DNA methylation in mammalian genomes, whereas the other forms, such as N6-methyladenine, primarily exist in prokaryotes and only a few eukaryotes. Herein, we demonstrated the surprising presence of N6-methyladenine in mammalian genomes, especially, mouse embryonic stem cells. This modification is enriched at histone variant H2A.X-deposited genomic regions in wild type embryonic stem cells. Our work also showed that a previously unknown DNA demethylase, Alkbh1, is the major demethylase for N6-methyladenine in embryonic stem cells. Increase of N6-methyladenine levels in Alkbh1 deficient cells leads to silencing of genes that regulate embryonic development. Surprisingly, genes located on the X-chromosome, but not the Y-chromosome or autosomes are preferentially silenced by N6-methyladenine. Strikingly, N6-methyladenine in Alkbh1 deficient cells are specifically deposition at young, full-length subfamilies of LINE1 transposons that are strongly enriched on the X chromosome. Furthermore, N6-methyladenine deposition on LINE1s pattern is inversely correlated with their evolutionary age. The deposition of N6-methyladenine results in epigenetic silencing of such L1s, which are otherwise actively transcribed in wild type embryonic stem cells, and the neighboring enhancers and genes. Furthermore, N6-methyladenine induced-silencing resists gene activation signals during embryonic stem cell differentiation. Thus, N6-methyladenine adopts a new function in epigenetic silencing in evolution, distinct from its role in gene activation in other organisms. In summary, our results demonstrate that N6-methyladenine unexpectedly constitutes a crucial component of the epigenetic regulation repertoire in mammalian genomes.

Project description:DNA N6-methyladenine (N6-mA) is an emerging epigenetic mark in the mammalian genome. Levels of N6-mA undergo drastic fluctuation during early embryogenesis, indicative of active regulation. Here we demonstrate that the 2-oxoglurarate oxygenase ALKBH1 functions as a nuclear eraser of N6-mA in unpairing regions (e.g. SIDD, Stress Induced DNA Double Helix Destabilization regions). Enzymatic profiling studies revealed that ALKBH1 displays demethylation activity towards N6-mA on DNA substrates that share a common unpairing feature, e.g. bubbled, bulged or single-stranded DNA oligos. Furthermore, ssDNA-seq and DIP-seq analyses revealed significant genome-wide co-occurrence of base unpairing regions with N6-mA in mouse embryonic stem cells, especially during cell fate transition. Collectively, our biochemical, structural and genomic studies demonstrate that ALKBH1 is an important DNA demethylase that regulates genome N6-mA turnover in unpairing regions associated with dynamic chromatin regulation in early development. This series contains data from ssDNA-seq experiments on mouse ES cells. We used the S1 nuclease and biotin end-labeling to enrich for DNA at ssDNA regions followed by HiSeq4000 sequencing and data analysis.

Project description:DNA N6-methyladenosine (6mA) in eukaryotic genomes has recently been observed in diverse species. 6mA has been reported to associate with multiple physiological processes including embryonic development and tumorigenesis, and ALKBH1 is a primary 6mA demethylase in mouse and human cells. To research the roles of 6mA and its putative regulators such as putative ALKBH1 in the homeostatic maintenance of human stem cells and their differentiated derivatives, We generated ALKBH1-deficient human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) via CRISPR/Cas9-mediated non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). We next differentiated ALKBH1+/+ and ALKBH1-/- hESCs into human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and vascular smooth muscle cells (hVSMCs). Early-onset growth arrest of ALKBH1-/- hMSCs was observed, and increased apoptosis and enhanced migration ability were observed in ALKBH1-/- hVSMCs. However, liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis revealed no change in 6mA levels between ALKBH1+/+ and ALKBH1-/- hESCs, between ALKBH1+/+ and ALKBH1-/- hMSCs, and between ALKBH1+/+ and ALKBH1-/- hVSMCs, respectively. These data demonstrate that depletion of ALKBH1 exerts minimal impact on 6mA levels in hESCs and their differentiated derivatives and that ALKBH1 regulates the homeostasis of hMSCs and hVSMCs possibly in a DNA 6mA-independent manner.

Project description:In human cells, 5-methylcytosine (5mC) DNA modification plays an important role in gene regulation. However, N6-methyladenine (6mA) DNA modification, which is predominantly present in prokaryotes, is considered to be absent in human genomic DNA. Here, using single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing on human blood, we show that DNA 6mA modification is extensively present in human genome, accounting for ~0.051% of the total adenines. [G/C]AGG[C/T] was the most significant motif associated with 6mA modification. 6mA sites are enriched in the exon coding regions and are associated with transcriptional activation. DNA N6-methyladenine and N6-demethyladenine modification in human are mediated by methyltransferase N6AMT1 and demethylase ALKBH1, respectively. The 6mA abundance is significantly lower in cancer tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues, which is accompanied with decreased N6AMT1 and increased ALKBH1 levels. Decrease of 6mA modification level stimulated tumorigenesis in human. Collectively, our results demonstrate that 6mA DNA modification is present in human tissues, and we describe a potential role of the N6AMT1/ALKBH1-6mA regulatory axis in the progression of human cancer.
