Development of DNA demethylation technology in HEK293T cells

ABSTRACT: DNA demethylating agents are epigenetic drugs for the therapy of myeloid leukemias. They not only induce DNA demethylation but also have significant cytostatic and cytotoxic effects, however, the relationships between these characteristics have not been established yet due to the lack of method to induce only DNA demethylation. Here we show that a fusion protein comprising the methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) and the catalytic domain of Ten-eleven translocation protein 1 (TET1-CD) globally demethylates and upregulates a number of methylated genes. Gene expression microarray analyses using human embryonic kidney cell line 293T indicate that cells expressing wild-type (wt) TET1 catalytic domain with MBD (MBD-TET1-CDwt) upregulated more genes than ones expressing TET1-CDwt without MBD or catalytically inactive TET1-CD mutant (mut) with MBD (MBD-TET1-CDmut) and their upregulated genes frequently contained CpG islands (CGIs) within ± 1,000 bp of the transcription start site (TSS). Interestingly, 88% of genes upregulated 5-fold or more by MBD-TET1-CDwt were also reactivated after treatment with DNA demethylating agent, 5-azacytidine, suggesting that gene reactivation by both methods is primarily based on DNA demethylation.

TET1 is a maintenance DNA demethylase that prevents methylation spreading in adult cells [MeDIP-Seq]

TET1 is a maintenance DNA demethylase that prevents methylation spreading in adult cells [cDNA microarray]

Project description:We report that full length TET1 (TET1-FL) overexpression fails to induce global DNA demethylation in HEK293T cells. The preferential binding of TET1-FL to hypomethylated CpG islands (CGIs) through its CXXC domain leads to its inhibited 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) production as methylation level increases. TET1-FL-induced 5hmC accumulates at CGI edges, while TET1 knockdown induces methylation spreading from methylated edges into hypomethylated CGIs. However, TET1 can regulate gene transcription independent of its dioxygenase catalytic function. Thus, our results identify TET1 as a maintenance DNA demethylase that does not purposely decrease methylation levels, but specifically maintains the DNA hypomethylation state of CGIs in adult cells. HEK293T cells were transfected with wild type or catalytically mutant TET1 expression plasmids (TET1-CD, mTET1-CD, TET1-FL and mTET1-FL), or subjected to shRNA-mediated TET1 knockdown. Total RNA samples were extracted and assayed on Affymetrix microarrays

TET1 is a maintenance DNA demethylase that prevents methylation spreading in adult cells [DREAM]

Thus, our results identify TET1 as a maintenance DNA demethylase that does not purposely decrease methylation levels, but specifically maintains the DNA hypomethylation state of CGIs in adult cells. Digital restriction enzyme analysis of methylation (DREAM) was performed to determine the DNA methylation profiles of HEK293T cells overexpressing mTET1-CD, TET1-CD, mTET1-FL, or TET1-FL. In this approach, genomic DNA is sequentially cut at CCCGGG sites with the methylation sensitive enzyme SmaI (blunt ends) and its methylation-tolerant neoschizomer XmaI (5M-bM-^@M-^YCCGG overhangs), creating different end sequences that represent methylation status of the CCCGGG sites. These end sequences are analyzed by next generation sequencing, and thereafter the methylation status at individual CCCGGG sites across the genome can be determined.

Identification of genes upregulated by methyl-CpG targeted transcriptional activation (MeTA) in 293T

Project description:The identification of genes transcriptionally silenced by DNA hypermethylation is important in understanding the molecular basis of epigenetically regulated biological processes such as X chromosome inactivation, genomic imprinting, and cancer development. Our previously developed methyl-CpG targeted transcriptional activation (MeTA) method reactivates epigenetically silenced genes by using a methyl-CpG binding domain from MBD2 with a transcriptional activation domain. We applied either MeTA or a conventional DNA demethylating agent, 5-aza-cytidine (Aza-CR), to a human embryonic kidney cell line 293T and analyzed gene expression profiles by microarray; 138 and 202 genes that are upregulated 5-fold or more were identified by MeTA and Aza-CR, respectively. The top ten upregulated genes detected by MeTA were further analyzed. We found associations between expressional restorations by MeTA, methylation status, and NFkB(AD)-MBD fusion protein bindings in CpG islands (CGIs) around the transcription start site of the genes. Importantly, MeTA can upregulate genes meeting the stringent criteria of CGIs defined by Takai and Jones at the promoter region at higher frequency; 109 of 138 (79.0%) genes in MeTA vs. 121 of 202 (59.9%) genes in Aza-CR. Interestingly, only 27 genes were upregulated by both methods; MeTA may identify methylated genes that show low levels of induction by the DNA demethylating agents; demethylating agents may also induce factors that help re-expression of genes that harbor less stringent or no CGIs. These results suggest that microarray coupled with MeTA (MeTA-array) is an efficient alternative way to identify transcriptionally silenced genes by DNA hypermethylation. 293T cells were transfected with pcDNA6/myc-His vector or pcDNA6-3xFLAG-NFkB (AD)-MBD and were harvested 48 h after transfection. In contrast, 293T cells were treated with 5-aza-cytidine (Aza-CR, 25 uM) or the same volume of PBS for 96 h and medium replaced every 24 h.

Dissection of TET1 catalytic and non-catalytic functions reveals DNA demethylation independent gene and ERV regulation

Project description:Surveillance of DNA methylation in mammals is critical for genome stability and epigenetic regulation. The discovery of the ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins catalyzing the oxidation from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC) revolutionized the understanding of DNA methylation dynamics. Interestingly, in recent years evidence accumulated that TET1 also harbours non-catalytic functions. However, the role and mechanism of TET1 DNA demethylation independent functions still remain poorly understood. Here, we use genome engineering and quantitative multi-omics approaches to dissect the non-catalytic role of TET1. Strikingly, we find that the majority of transcriptional regulation depends on non-catalytic functions of TET1. To gain insights into possible mechanisms by which TET1 regulates transcription independent of DNA demethylation, we asked if the loss of TET1 is accompanied by changes in the histone modificaiton landscape. To this end, we compared the relative abundances of core histone modifications between Tet1 KO, Tet1 CM and WT mESCs using quantitative LC-MS/MS analysis. Surprisingly, we observed a profound global reduction of pH4Kac and H4K20me3 as well as H3K27me3 in Tet1 KO mESC. Vice versa, the monomethylation states of the latter two residues, H3K27me1 and H4K20me1 were significantly increased in Tet1 KO. Similar to the results from the transcriptome data, most of these changes were specific to Tet1 KO cells.
