Spermatid-specific linker histone HILS1 is a poor condenser of DNA and chromatin, and preferentially associates with LINE L1 elements

ABSTRACT: Background: Eleven linker histone subtypes are reported in mammals. Linker histones establish and maintain higher order chromatin structure. HILS1 is a spermatid-specific linker histone and its expression overlaps with the chromatin reorganization process during spermiogenesis; however, role of HILS1 in chromatin restructuring is largely unknown. Method: Genome-wide occupancy of the rat HILS1 protein was studied by ChIP-sequencing of pulldown DNA isolated from nuclei of 50-60 days old rat testis, using anti HILS1 antibody. Conclusion: Present study revealed that HILS1 is preferentially associated Line L1 elements in rat spermatids.

Genome-wide occupancy of linker histone variant H1T2 in round/elongating spermatids of rats

Project description:Background: H1T2 is a germ cell specific linker histone variant, identified as critical for spermiogenesis based on knockout studies, shows a specialized localization at the apical pole of the spermatids and maintains an inherent polarity within the spermatid nucleus. However, the exact genomic loci bound to H1T2 in spermatids is unknown. Method: Genome-wide occupancy of the rat H1T2 protein was studied by ChIP-sequencing of pulldown DNA isolated from nuclei of 35-50 days old rat testis, using highly specific anti H1T2 antibody. Conclusion: Present study revealed that H1T2 is preferentially associated with the intergenic loci(majorly LINE L1 elements).

Paternally inherited H3K27me3 affects chromatin accessibility in mouse embryos produced by round spermatid injection

Project description:Round spermatid injection (ROSI) results in a lower birth rate than intracytoplasmic sperm injection, which has hampered its clinical application. Inefficient development of ROSI embryos has been attributed to epigenetic abnormalities. However, the chromatin-based mechanism that underpins the low birth rate in ROSI remains to be determined. Here, we show that a repressive histone mark H3K27me3 persists from mouse round spermatids into zygotes in ROSI and that round spermatid-derived H3K27me3 is associated with less accessible chromatin and impaired gene expression in ROSI embryos. These loci are initially marked by H3K27me3 but undergo histone modification remodelling in spermiogenesis, resulting in reduced H3K27me3 in normal spermatozoa. Therefore, the absence of the epigenetic remodelling, presumably mediated by histone turnover during spermiogenesis, leads to dysregulation of chromatin accessibility and transcription in ROSI embryos. Thus, our results unveil a molecular logic, in which chromatin states in round spermatids impinge on chromatin accessibility and transcription in ROSI embryos, highlighting the importance of epigenetic remodelling during spermiogenesis in successful reproduction.

Paternally inherited H3K27me3 impacts zygotic genome activation in round spermatid injection [RNA-seq]

Project description:Round spermatid injection (ROSI) gives rise to a lower birth rate than intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), which uses mature spermatozoa and has limited clinical application. Inefficient development of ROSI-embryos has been attributed to epigenetic abnormalities. However, the chromatin-based mechanism that underpins the low birth rate of ROSI remains to be determined. Here we show that a repressive histone mark H3K27me3 persists from doner round spermatids into zygotes in ROSI and that paternally derived H3K27me3 is associated with less accessible chromatin and impaired zygotic genome activation (ZGA) in ROSI-derived zygotes. These H3K27me3 marked loci in the paternal germline undergo histone turnover in spermiogenesis, resulting in the reduced paternal H3K27me3 in normal spermatozoa. Thus, the lack of histone turnover during spermiogenesis led to the dysregulation of chromatin accessibility and ZGA in ROSI-embryos. Our results unveil a molecular logic by which chromatin states in round spermatids impinge on chromatin states and ZGA in ROSI-embryos, highlighting the importance of chromatin remodeling in spermiogenesis in successful reproduction.

Transcription profiling of mouse germline during spermatogenesis reveals X and Y occupy a novel compartment in the post-meiotic spermatid and adopt a non-Rabl configuration

Project description:In mammals, the X and Y chromosomes are subject to meiotic sex chromosome inactivation (MSCI) during prophase I in the male germline, but their status thereafter is currently unclear. An abundance of X-linked spermatogenesis genes has spawned the view that the X must be active [1-8]. On the other hand, the idea that the imprinted paternal X of the early embryo may be pre-inactivated by MSCI suggests that silencing may persist longer [9-12]. To clarify this issue, we establish a comprehensive X-expression profile during mouse spermatogenesis. Here, we discover that the X and Y occupy a novel compartment in the post-meiotic spermatid and adopt a non-Rabl configuration. We demonstrate that this post-meiotic sex chromatin (PMSC) persists throughout spermiogenesis into mature sperm and exhibits epigenetic similarity to the XY body. In the spermatid, 87% of X-linked genes remain suppressed post-meiotically, while autosomes are largely active. We conclude that chromosome-wide X-silencing continues from meiosis to the end of spermiogenesis and discuss implications for proposed mechanisms of imprinted X-inactivation. Independent germ cell preps were used for array analysis. Duplicates were provided for each sample.

Linking Phospho-Gonadotropin Regulated Testicular RNA Helicase (GRTH/DDX25) to Histone Ubiquitination and Acetylation Essential for Spermatid Development During Spermiogenesis

Project description:In this study, we examined genome-wide transcriptome profiles of germ cells isolated from GRTH Knock-In and WT mice testis using RNA-Seq. We used homozygous KI mice with R242H mutation in GRTH gene resulting loss of phospho-GRTH to further understand its role in spermatid development during spermiogenesis by analyzing the DEGs from RNA-Seq. The analysis of RNA-Seq data allowed us to find the relevant DEGs related to ubiquitination pathway that are essential for spermatid development. This study using KI mice model demonstrated that loss of phospho-GRTH impairs UBE2J1 and RNF8 dependent histone modifications hampering initial stages of spermatid elongation process.

Tsga8 is required for spermatid morphogenesis and male fertility in mice

Project description:During spermatogenesis, intricate gene expression is coordinately regulated by epigenetic modifiers, which are required for differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) contained among undifferentiated spermatogonia. We previously found that KMT2B conveys H3K4me3 at bivalent and monovalent promoters in undifferentiated spermatogonia. Because these genes are expressed late in spermatogenesis or during embryogenesis, we expect that many of them are potentially programmed by KMT2B for future expression. Here, we show that one of the genes targeted by KMT2B, Tsga8, plays an essential role in spermatid morphogenesis. Loss of Tsga8 in mice leads to male infertility associated with abnormal chromosomal distribution in round spermatids, malformation of elongating spermatid heads and spermiation failure. Tsga8 depletion leads to dysregulation of thousands of genes, including the X chromosome genes that are reactivated in spermatids, and insufficient nuclear condensation accompanied by reductions of TNP1 and PRM1, key factors for histone-to-protamine transition. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) of spermatids rescued the infertility phenotype, suggesting competency of the spermatid genome for fertilization. Thus, Tsga8 is a KMT2B target that is vitally necessary for spermiogenesis and fertility.

Dynamic Distribution of Linker Histone H1.5 in Cellular Differentiation

Project description:Linker histones are essential components of chromatin but the distributions and functions of many during cellular differentiation is not well understood. Here, we show that H1.5 binds to genic and intergenic regions, forming blocks of enrichment, in differentiated human cells from all three embryonic germ layers but not in embryonic stem cells. In differentiated cells, H1.5, but not H1.3, binds preferentially to genes that encode membrane and membrane-related proteins. Strikingly, 37% of H1.5 target genes belong to gene family clusters, groups of homologous genes that are located in proximity to each other on chromosomes. H1.5 binding is associated with gene repression and is required for SIRT1 binding, H3K9me2 enrichment and chromatin compaction. Depletion of H1.5 results in loss of SIRT1 and H3K9me2, increased chromatin accessibility, deregulation of gene expression and decreased cell growth. Our data reveal for the first time a specific and novel function for linker histone subtype H1.5 in maintenance of condensed chromatin at defined gene families in differentiated human cells.

Spermatid-specific linker histone HILS1 is a poor condenser of DNA and chromatin and preferentially associates with LINE-1 elements.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Linker histones establish and maintain higher-order chromatin structure. Eleven linker histone subtypes have been reported in mammals. HILS1 is a spermatid-specific linker histone, and its expression overlaps with the histone-protamine exchange process during mammalian spermiogenesis. However, the role of HILS1 in spermatid chromatin remodeling is largely unknown. RESULTS:In this study, we demonstrate using circular dichroism spectroscopy that HILS1 is a poor condenser of DNA and chromatin compared to somatic linker histone H1d. Genome-wide occupancy study in elongating/condensing spermatids revealed the preferential binding of HILS1 to the LINE-1 (L1) elements within the intergenic and intronic regions of rat spermatid genome. We observed specific enrichment of the histone PTMs like H3K9me3, H4K20me3 and H4 acetylation marks (H4K5ac and H4K12ac) in the HILS1-bound chromatin complex, whereas H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 marks were absent. CONCLUSIONS:HILS1 possesses significantly lower ?-helicity compared to other linker histones such as H1t and H1d. Interestingly, in contrast to the somatic histone variant H1d, HILS1 is a poor condenser of chromatin which demonstrate the idea that this particular linker histone variant may have distinct role in histone to protamine replacement. Based on HILS1 ChIP-seq analysis of elongating/condensing spermatids, we speculate that HILS1 may provide a platform for the structural transitions and forms the higher-order chromatin structures encompassing LINE-1 elements during spermiogenesis.

A testis-specific long non-coding RNA, 1700052I22Rik, regulates spermatid chromatin condensation in mice

Project description:Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), as diverse functional regulators, are abundantly expressed in the testis. However, lncRNAs preferentially or exclusively expressed in the testis remain largely unknown. Here, we report a testis-specific lncRNA, 1700052I22Rik, which exhibits a dynamic expression pattern during spermatogenesis. Our findings demonstrate that knockout of 1700052I22Rik in mice leads to reduced sperm counts and subfertility in males, as well as defective spermatid chromatin condensation. We further elucidate the underlying mechanism by which 1700052I22Rik modulates the translation of protamine 1 (PRM1) through interaction with Y-box binding protein 2 (YBX2). Collectively, our results uncover a crucial role for the testis-specific lncRNA 1700052I22Rik in regulating spermatid chromatin condensation in mice, providing novel insights into the functions of lncRNAs in spermatogenesis and potential targets for the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility.
