Functional Roles of Acetylated Histone Marks at Mouse Meiotic Recombination Hotspots (sequencing)

ABSTRACT: Meiotic recombination is initiated by the Spo11 endonuclease, which directs DNA DSBs. We report here that the recombinogenic cores of active hotspots in mice harbor several histone H3 and H4 acetylation and methylation marks that are typical of open, active chromatin. Further, deposition of these histone marks is dynamic and manifest at spermatogonia and/or pre-leptotene meiotic cells, which would facilitate the formation of DSBs at leptotene. Importantly, there was concordance in the overlap of the histone mark ChIP profiles with nucleosome occupancy maps, which were determined by real-time PCR and whole genome sequencing (WGS) analyses of micococcal-nuclease resistance regions across four mouse meiotic hotspots (HS22, HS59.4, HS59.5 and HS61.1). Our study reveals that there are instructive roles of histone acetylated marks at meiotic recombination hotspot cores and that they are necessary to promote hotspot activity and crossover resolution.

Functional roles of Acetylated Histone Marks at Mouse Meiotic Recombination Hotspots (expression)

Project description:Meiotic recombination is initiated by the Spo11 endonuclease, which directs DNA double strand breaks at discrete regions in the genome coined hotspots. Here we report the profiles and dynamics of histone modifications at the cores of mouse recombination hotspots in early meiotic prophase. To define the spectrum of possible regulators of histone methylation and acetylation at all stages of meiosis I, expression analyses of histone acetylases/deacetylases (HATs/HDACs) and and HMTs/HDMTs genes when comparing those expressed in spermatogonia, pre-leptotene and leptotene/zygotene versus pachytene meiotic stages.

Histone H3 lysine9 acetylation, rather than lysine4 trimethylation, marks meiotic recombination hotspots and promotes recombination initiation in fission yeast

Project description:Histone modifications are associated with meiotic recombination hotspots, discrete sites with augmented recombination frequency. For example, trimethylation of histone H3 lysine4 (H3K4me3) marks most hotspots in budding yeast and mouse. Modified histones are known to regulate meiotic recombination partly by promoting DNA double strand break (DSB) formation, but the role and precise landscape of histone modifications at hotspots remain unclear. Here, we studied hotspot-associated modifications in fission yeast and found general features: acetylation of H3 lysine9 (H3K9ac) is strikingly elevated, and H3K4me3 is not significantly enriched. Remarkably, elimination of H3K9ac reduced binding of the DSB-inducing enzyme Rec12 and DSB at hotspots. We also found that the H3K4 metyltransferase Set1 promotes DSB formation at some loci, but it restricts Rec12 binding to hotspots. These results suggest that H3K9ac rather than H3K4me3 is a hotspot-associated mark involved in meiotic DSB formation in fission yeast. S.pombe cells in a pat1-114 background were induced to enter meiosis by the haploid meiosis system, and harvested one hour after the induction. ChIP were performed using anti-H3Cter, H3K9ac, -H3K14ac and -H3K4me3 antibodies. pat1-114 rad50S rec12+-FLAG cells in a wild type, H3K9A or set1+ deletion background were induced to enter meiosis by the haploid meiosis system, and harvested five hours after the induction. ChIP were performed using anti-FLAG antibodies.

The evolutionary dynamics of meiotic recombination initiation in mice

Project description:Meiotic recombination is required for the segregation of homologous chromosomes and is essential for fertility. The DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) that initiate meiotic recombination are directed by sequence-specific DNA binding of the PRDM9 protein. Gradual elimination of PRDM9 binding sites by gene conversion is thought to result in the hotspot erosion while mutations affecting DNA binding specificity of PRDM9 will create the new sets of hotspots. To better understand evolutionary turnover of recombination hotspots we mapped DSB hotspots in six inbred mouse strains representing all four major subspecies of Mus musculus and in their F1 hybrids. We found that hotspot erosion governs the preferential usage of some Prdm9 alleles over others in hybrid mice and increases sequence diversity specifically at hotspots that become active in the hybrids. As crossovers are disfavored at such hotspots, we propose that sequence divergence generated by hotspot turnover creates impediments for recombination in hybrids, potentially leading to reduction in fertility and eventually, speciation.

Genome-wide map of H3K4me3 and PRDM9-binding in 12 day post-partum mouse spermatocytes

Project description:PRDM9, a histone methyltransferase, initiates meiotic recombination by binding DNA at recombination hotspots and directing the position of DNA double-strand breaks (DSB). The DSB repair mechanism suggests that hotspots should eventually self-destruct, yet genome-wide recombination levels remain constant, a conundrum known as the hotspot paradox. To test if PRDM9 drives this evolutionary erosion, we compared activity of the Prdm9Cst allele in two Mus musculus subspecies, M.m. castaneus, in which Prdm9Cst arose, and M.m. domesticus, into which Prdm9Cst was introduced. Comparing these two strains, we find that haplotype differences at hotspots leads to qualitative and quantitative changes in PRDM9 binding and activity. Most variants affecting PRDM9Cst binding arose and were fixed in M.m castaneus, suppressing hotspot activity. Furthermore, M.m castaneus x M.m domesticus F1 hybrids exhibit novel hotspots, representing sites of historic evolutionary erosion. Together these data support a model where haplotype-specific PRDM9 binding directs biased gene conversion at hotspots, ultimately leading to hotspot erosion. Identify position of meiotic H3K4me3 from various sub-species of mice and F1 hybrids from crosses between subspecies. In addition, perform ChIP-seq analysis on the meiosis-specific methyltransferase PRDM9.

Protein Determinants of Meiotic DNA Break Hotspots (dataset 2)

Project description:Meiotic recombination, crucial for proper chromosome segregation and genome evolution, is initiated by programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in budding and fission yeasts and likely all sexually reproducing species. In fission yeast, DSBs occur up to several hundred times more frequently at special sites, called hotspots, than in other regions of the genome. What distinguishes hotspots from cold regions is a major unsolved problem, although transcription factors determine some hotspots. We report here the discovery that three coiled-coil proteins -- Rec25, Rec27, and Mug20 -- bind essentially all hotspots with unprecedented, high specificity even without DSB formation. These small proteins are components of linear elements, are related to synaptonemal complex proteins, and are essential for nearly all DSBs at most hotspots. Our results indicate that these hotspot determinants activate or stabilize the DSB-forming protein Rec12 (Spo11 homolog) rather than promote its binding to hotspots. We propose here a new paradigm for hotspot determination and crossover control by linear element proteins.

Numerical and Spatial Patterning of Yeast Meiotic DNA Breaks by Tel1

Project description:The Spo11-generated double-strand breaks (DSBs) that initiate meiotic recombination are dangerous lesions that can disrupt genome integrity, so meiotic cells regulate their number, timing, and distribution. Here, we use Spo11-oligonucleotide complexes, a byproduct of DSB formation, to examine the contribution of the DNA damage-responsive kinase Tel1 (ortholog of mammalian ATM) to this regulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A tel1Î mutant had globally increased amounts of Spo11-oligonucleotide complexes and altered Spo11-oligonucleotide lengths, consistent with conserved roles for Tel1 in control of DSB number and processing. A kinase-dead tel1 mutation also increased Spo11-oligonucleotide levels, but mutating known Tel1 phosphotargets on Hop1 and Rec114 did not. Deep sequencing of Spo11 oligonucleotides from tel1Î mutants demonstrated that Tel1 shapes the nonrandom DSB distribution in ways that are distinct but partially overlapping with previously described contributions of the recombination regulator Zip3. Finally, we uncover a context-dependent role for Tel1 in hotspot competition, in which an artificial DSB hotspot inhibits nearby hotspots. Evidence for Tel1-dependent competition involving strong natural hotspots is also provided. Sixteen samples total: The first 12 are two biological replicate Spo11-oligo maps from each of the following: wild type and tel1 each collected at 4, 5, and 6 hours after meiotic induction; the next 4 are one biological replicate Spo11-oligo map from each of the following: wild type and tel1 bearing an artificial hotspot insertion either on Chr III or on Chr IX.

PRDM9 drives the location and rapid evolution of recombination hotspots in salmonids

Project description:In many eukaryotes, meiotic recombination occurs preferentially at discrete sites, called recombination hotspots. In various lineages, recombination hotspots are located in regions with promoter-like features and are evolutionarily stable. Conversely, in some mammals, hotspots are driven by PRDM9 that targets recombination away from promoters. Paradoxically, PRDM9 induces the self-destruction of its targets and this triggers an ultra-fast evolution of mammalian hotspots. PRDM9 is ancestral to all animals, suggesting a critical importance for the meiotic program, but has been lost in many lineages with surprisingly little effect on meiosis success. However, it is unclear whether the function of PRDM9 described in mammals is shared by other species. To investigate this, we analyzed the recombination landscape of several salmonids, the genome of which harbors one full-length PRDM9 and several truncated paralogs. We identified recombination initiation sites in Oncorhynchus mykiss by mapping meiotic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). We found that DNA DSBs clustered at hotspots positioned away from promoters, enriched for the H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 marks and the location of which depended on the genotype of full-length Prdm9. We observed a high level of polymorphism in the zinc finger domain of full-length Prdm9, indicating diversification driven by positive selection. Moreover, population-scaled recombination maps in O. mykiss, Oncorhynchus kisutch and Salmo salar revealed a rapid turnover of recombination hotspots caused by PRDM9 target motif erosion. Our results imply that PRDM9 function is conserved across vertebrates and that the peculiar evolutionary runaway caused by PRDM9 has been active for several hundred million years.
