Project description:The role of on-CG methylation in seed development and dormancy remains unknown. There are four genes in charge of non-CG methylation in Arabidopsis: drm1, drm2, cmt2 and cmt3. The majority of non-CG methylation in vegetative tissues, leaf, is gone in homozygous ddcc mutant line (Hume et al., 2014). To uncover the possible role of non-CG DNA methylation in seed development and dormancy, we characterized the transcriptome of ddcc mutant in Arabidopsis post-mature green seeds using Illumina sequencing. Meanwhile, post-mature green seeds from wild type were used as control. Illumina sequencing of transcripts from post-mature green seeds of ddcc mutant and wild type. Two biological replicates were collected.

Project description:DNA methylation occurs in both CG and non-CG sequence contexts. Non-CG methylation is abundant in plants, and is mediated by CHROMOMETHYLASE (CMT) and DOMAINS REARRANGED METHYLTRANSFERASE (DRM) proteins; however its roles remain poorly understood. Here we characterize the roles of non-CG methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana. We show that a poorly characterized methyltransferase, CMT2, is a functional methyltransferase in vitro and in vivo. CMT2 specifically binds histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) dimethylation and methylates non-CG cytosines at sites that are also regulated by H3K9 dimethylation. By generating different combinations of non-CG methylation mutants, we reveal the contributions and redundancies between each methyltransferase in DNA methylation patterning and in regulating transposable elements (TEs) and protein-coding genes. We also demonstrate extensive dependencies of small RNA accumulation and H3K9 methylation patterning on non-CG methylation, suggesting self-reinforcing mechanisms between these epigenetic factors. The results suggest that non-CG methylation patterns are critical in shaping the histone modification and small non-coding RNA landscapes. Eighteen mRNA-seq samples, five smRNA-seq samples, five bisulfite-seq samples, twenty ChIP-seq samples. Bisulfite-seq data for cmt2-7 single mutants, cmt3 single mutants, drm1/2 double mutants, drm1/2 cmt3 triple mutants are deposited in GSE39901.

Project description:There are four major seed developmental phases in Arabidopsis seed development: morphogenesis, maturation, dormancy and germination. What methylation changes occurring in the different phases, if any, remains unknown. To uncover the possible role of DNA methylation in different parts of the seed, we characterized the methylome of four major seed developmental phases of Arabidopsis using Illumina sequencing: global stage (glob) and linear cotyledon stage (lcot) for morphogenesis phase; mature green stage (mg) and post mature green stage (pmg) for maturation phase; dry seed (dry) for dormancy phase; leaves (leaf) from 4 week plant for vegetative tissues. Illumina sequencing of bisulfite-converted genomic DNA from six seed developmental stages in Arabidopsis: global stage (glob), linear cotyledon stage (lcot), mature green stage (mg), post mature green stage (pmg), dry seed (dry) and leaves (leaf) from 4 week plant.

Project description:Along with the inherent complexities of seed and dormancy, the use of different genotypes or mutants to study the molecular mechanisms underlying seed dormancy leads to potential biases and data misinterpretation. To provide a comprehensive insight into the actual protein activities involved in seed dormancy establishment, a SWATH-MS proteomics was performed on dormant and non-dormant developing seeds of Xanthium strumarium at five consecutive time intervals including three, 10, 20, and 30 days after burr emergence and full maturation. The amount of approximately 3.5% differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) with a ~94% stage-specificity supports considerable proteome overlap in the two seed types. More than 38% of all differentially abundant proteins were observed at the first stage, supporting the importance of this stage of seed development for seed fate determination. Rapid overrepresentation of proteins responsible for cell wall biosynthesis, cytokinesis, and seed development were detected for non-dormant seed at the first stage, while dormancy-associated proteins showed less abundance. In the middle of seed development, we identified DAPs involved in seed maturation and ABA signaling. Interestingly, higher abundant proteins in the mature non-dormant seed were mainly involved in the facilitation of seed germination. Taken together, the temporal pattern of the accumulated proteins demonstrated a delay in the initiation of active cell division, enriched response to ABA, and defect in the seed maturation in developing dormant seeds. Moreover, stored proteins in the mature dormant seed are responsible for delaying germination but not dormancy induction. Finally, assume that dormancy may be established at a stage of seed development earlier than previously thought.

Project description:Seeds are comprised of three major parts of distinct parental origin: the seed coat, embryo, and endosperm. The maternally-derived seed coat is important for nurturing and protecting the seeds during development. By contrast, the embryo and the endosperm are derived from a double fertilization event, where one sperm fertilizes the egg to form the diploid zygote and the other sperm fertilizes the central cell to form the triploid endosperm. Each seed part undergoes distinct developmental programs during seed development. What methylation changes occur in the different seed parts, if any, remains unknown. To uncover the possible role of DNA methylation in different parts of the seed, we characterized the methylome of two major parts of Arabidopsis mature green stage seeds, the seed coat and embryo, using Illumina sequencing. Illumina sequencing of bisulfite-converted genomic DNA from two parts of Arabidopsis mature green seeds: seed coat (SC) and embryo (EMB).

Project description:RNA silencing is a mechanism for regulating gene expression at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Its functions include regulating endogenous gene expression and protecting the cell against viruses and invading transposable elements (TEs). A key component of the mechanism is small RNAs (sRNAs) of 21-24 nucleotides (nt) in length, which direct the silencing machinery in a sequence specific manner to target nucleic acids. sRNAs of 24 nt are involved in methylation of cytosine residues of target loci in three sequence contexts (CG, CHG and CHH), referred to as RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). We previously demonstrated that 24 nt sRNAs are mobile from shoot to root in Arabidopsis thaliana. In this study we demonstrated that methylation of thousands of loci in root tissues is dependent upon mobile sRNAs from the shoot. Furthermore, we found that mobile sRNA-dependent DNA methylation occurs predominantly in non-CG contexts. These findings were made using base-resolution next generation sequencing approaches and genome wide analyses. Specific classes of short TEs are the predominant targets of mobile sRNA-dependent DNA methylation; classes typically found in gene-rich euchromatic regions. Mobile sRNA-regulated genes were also identified. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that mobile sRNA-dependent non-CG methylation is largely independent of the CMT2/3 RdDM pathway but dependent upon the DRM1/DRM2 RdDM pathway. This is in contrast to non-mobile sRNA-dependent DNA methylation, which predominantly depends upon the CMT2/3 RdDM pathway. These data are complementary to the small RNA sequencing data from Arabidopsis root grafts described in Molnar et al (Science, 2010 May 14;328(5980):872-5).

Project description:We collected mature green seed compartments from 7 micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system in order to identify the mRNAs present in different compartments from seeds containing mature green-stage embryos. For the purposes of this study we captured 6 compartments: embryo proper, micropylar endosperm, cellularized peripherial endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat and seed coat, as well sets of serial sections encompassing the entire mature green stage seed.
