Structural basis of epigenetic protection of mouse lymphoid progenitor cells by Dnmt1 (Medaka)

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation is a universal epigenetic mechanism involved in regulation of gene expression and genome stability. The DNA maintenance methylase DNMT1 ensures that DNA methylation patterns are faithfully transmitted to daughter cells during cell division. Because DNMT1 is essential for cell viability, little is known about its tissue-specific function. To overcome this impediment, forward genetic screens were conducted in medaka and zebrafish to identify viable dnmt1 alleles. The recovered recessive missense mutations lead to distorted structures of the catalytic pocket and reduced enzymatic activities, resulting in hypomethylation of genomic DNA that specifically impairs lymphoid development. The insights gleaned from fish dnmt1 alleles enabled the structure-guided generation of a hypomorphic variant of mouse Dnmt1, which also causes cell-autonomous defects of lymphoid development. The similar phenotypes observed in three distinct species suggest that the unique sensitivity of lymphocytes to perturbations of DNA methylation patterns is an evolutionarily conserved feature of all vertebrates.

Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS) or zebrafish, medaka, and zebrafish-medaka hybrid embryos

Project description:During development, the inherited DNA methylation patterns from the parental gametes needs to be remodeled into a state compatible with embryonic pluripotency. In Zebrafish, this remodeling is achieved by the maternal methylome becoming hypomethylated to match the paternal methylome. However, how this is achieved in medaka (another teleost fish) is currently not known. Moreover, how DNA methylation remodeling is impacted in hybrid organisms, and the effects this may have on their development, is also not known. Here we address these questions by generation whole genome bisulfite sequencing data for zebrafish, medaka and zebrafish medaka embryos.

Non - canonical functions of UHRF1 maintain DNA methylation homeostasis in cancer cell

Project description:We have generated and validated degron alleles of UHRF1 and/or DNMT1 in several human colorectal cancer cell lines. We then used genomics and bioinformatics to precisely describe he DNA demethylation dynamics in these cells, leading to the conclusion that UHRF1 maintains DNA methylation in cancer cells not only by stimulating DNMT1. Proteomics and genetics lead us to conclude that UHRF1 regulates DNMT3A, DNMT3B and TET2 activity in addition to regulating DNMT1. The tools we have developed will be valuable for future research efforts, and our results advance our understanding of cancer epigenetics, with potentially important therapeutic applications.

Deep proteomic analysis of Dnmt1 mutant/hypomorphic colorectal cancer cells reveals dys-regulation of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and subcellular re-localization of Beta-Catenin

Project description:DNA methyltransferase I plays the central role in maintenance of CpG DNA methylation patterns across the genome and alteration of CpG methylation patterns is a frequent and significant occurrence across many cancers. Cancer cells carrying hypomorphic alleles of Dnmt1 have become important tools for understanding Dnmt1 function and CpG methylation. In this study, we analyse colorectal cancer cells with a homozygous deletion of exons 3 to 5 of Dnmt1, resulting in reduced Dnmt1 activity. Although this cell model has been widely used to study the epigenome, the effects of the Dnmt1 hypomorph on cell signalling pathways and the wider proteome are largely unknown. In this study, we perform the first quantitative proteomic analysis of this important cell model and identify multiple signalling pathways and processes that are significantly dysregulated in the hypomorph cells. In Dnmt1 hypomorph cells, we observed a clear and unexpected signature of increased Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers as well as reduced expression and sub-cellular re-localization of Beta-Catenin. Expression of wild-type Dnmt1 in hypomorph cells or knock-down of wild-type Dnmt1 did not recapitulate or rescue the observed protein profiles in Dnmt1 hypomorph cells suggesting that hypomorphic Dnmt1 causes changes not solely attributable to Dnmt1 protein levels. In summary we present the first comprehensive proteomic analysis of the widely studied Dnmt1 hypomorph colorectal cancer cells and identify redistribution of Dnmt1 and its interaction partner Beta-Catenin

Identification of Rx2 binding loci in medaka by iDamID-seq

Project description:We have improved the DamID method to make it applicable for vertebrate life specimens. We use iDamID-seq to profile the binding profile of the transcription factor Rx2 in medaka embryos at stage 22 of development. We compare two replicates of the fusion Dam-Rx2 against two replicates of the fusion Dam-GFP as control. Medaka embryos at 1-cell stage were injected with mRNA transcribed in vitro from one of the two Dam fusions. The embryos were allowed to grow in normal conditions up to stage 22. The genomic DNA was isolated and treated to extract only the DpnI fragments that had adenine methylation. These fragments were subjected to deep sequencing.

Medaka Reciprocal cross RNAseq

Project description:Medaka fish is a long standing genetic model organism from the 1930s. Uniquely amongstvertebrates Medaka fish can be routinely inbred from the wild (laboratory mice are inbred, butthis does not happen as a routine process from wild individuals), leading to a large number offully inbred wild-derived strains. As part of a broader collaboration I am part of a project toinbred over 100 wild derived strains of Medaka and use them in a similar manner toArabidopsis and Drosophila wild derived lines.To help explore the phenotyping possibilities in this context, we have taken alreadyestablished wild Medaka lines and done reciprocal F1 crosses between 3 strains, and have 4tissues, and a number of parental tissues, giving a total of 40 samples. By doing RNA-seq onthese tissues we do a number of things:(a) assess the level of allele specific expression in Medaka(b) test whether there is any imprinting (parent of origin) in fish. This is thought to not be thecase, but in fact has not been well tested (not least because getting truly inbred fish is hard)(c) assess the level of random allelic activation in brain(d) assess the feasibility for RNAseq based phenotyping in Medaka, providing preliminarydata for future proposals.This data is part of a pre-publication release.

Conditional knockdown of DNA methyltransferase-1 (Dnmt1) reveals a key role of retinal pigment epithelium integrity in photoreceptor outer segment morphogenesis

Project description:To explore the epigenetic contribution to retinal development, we generated conditional knockout alleles of DNA methytransferase-1 (Dnmt1) mediated by Rx-Cre in mice. The results demonstrate a unique function of DNMT1-mediated DNA methylation in controlling RPE apicobasal polarity and neural retina differentiation.
