Project description:Meiotic crossover landscape within RAC1 disease resistance gene
| PRJEB24064 | ENA
Project description:To study recombination at the fine-scale, we used high-throughput sequencing of 300 to 1,000 crossovers within the RAC1 R gene hotspot. This revealed focused intragenic crossovers, overlapping exons encoding the TIR, NBS and LRR domains. To examine the role of recombination pathways, we repeated this experiment in recq4a recq4b, fancm and recq4a recq4b fancm mutants. Finally, in order to investigate how varying patterns of interhomolog divergence influence local patterns of crossover frequency, we repeated RAC1 pollen typing sequencing in different F1 hybrids.

Project description:To study recombination at the fine-scale we used high-throughput sequencing to analyse >1,000 crossovers within the RAC1 R gene hotspot. This revealed focused intragenic crossovers, overlapping exons encoding the TIR, NBS and LRR domains (RAC1 pollen typing sequencing). To analyse chromatin structure we performed micrococcal nuclease digestion of wild type (Col-0) chromatin and gel purified the resulting ~150 bp mononucleosomal DNA band. This DNA was used to generate a library and paired-end sequencing performed (MNase-seq)

Project description:Programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) initiate meiotic recombination and their subsequent repair culminates in crossover (CO) formation. COs result from the asymmetric cleavage of double-Holliday junction (dHJ) intermediates, that requires the MutLγ endonuclease and a non-catalytic function of Exo1, an activity essential for fertility but at risk of generating unwanted chromosome rearrangements. Here we show how crossover formation by MutLγ is activated at the right time and at the right place. MutLγ forms a constitutive complex with Exo1, and in meiotic cells transiently contacts the upstream MutSγ (Msh4-Msh5) heterodimer. MutLγ associates with DSB hotspots only once recombination intermediates have been stabilized and engaged in the crossover repair pathway. MutLγ-Exo1 is recruited to DSB hotspots independently of the polo-like Cdc5 kinase, but to activate dHJ resolution, Cdc5 is recruited to the recombination intermediates and interacts individually with both MutLγ and Exo1, suggesting their direct modification. in vivo, MutLγ occupancy is restrained on recombination intermediates, and MutLγ associates with the vast majority of DSB hotspots, but at a lower frequency in centromeres, consistent with a strategy to reduce at-risk crossover events in these regions, and in late replicating regions. Our data highlight the tight temporal and spatial control of the activity of this constitutive, potentially harmful, nuclease.

Project description:Programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) initiate meiotic recombination and their subsequent repair culminates in crossover (CO) formation. COs result from the asymmetric cleavage of double-Holliday junction (dHJ) intermediates, that requires the MutLγ complex together with a non-catalytic function of Exo1, an activity essential for fertility but at risk of generating unwanted chromosome rearrangements. Here we show how crossover formation by MutLγ is activated at the right time and at the right place. MutLγ forms a constitutive complex with Exo1, and in meiotic cells transiently contacts the upstream MutSγ (Msh4-Msh5) heterodimer. MutLγ associates with DSB hotspots at a late step in the recombinational repair, once recombination intermediates have been stabilized and engaged in the crossover repair pathway. MutLγ-Exo1 is recruited to DSB hotspots independently of the polo-like Cdc5 kinase, but to activate dHJ resolution, Cdc5 is recruited to the recombination intermediates and interacts individually with both MutLγ and Exo1, suggesting their direct modification. in vivo, MutLγ occupancy is restrained on recombination intermediates, and genome-wide, MutLγ associates with the vast majority of DSB hotspots, but at a lower frequency in centromeres, consistent with a strategy to reduce at-risk crossover events in these regions, and in late replicating regions. Our data highlight the highly temporally and spatially control of the activity of this constitutive, potentially harmful, nuclease

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.

Project description: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.

Project description:Meiotic crossover formation requires the stabilization of early recombination intermediates by a set of proteins and occurs within the environment of the chromosome axis, a structure important for the regulation of meiotic recombination events. The molecular mechanisms underlying and connecting crossover recombination and axis localization are elusive. Here, we identified the ZZS (Zip2–Zip4–Spo16) complex, required for crossover formation, which carries two distinct activities: one provided by Zip4, which acts as hub through physical interactions with components of the chromosome axis and the crossover machinery, and the other carried by Zip2 and Spo16, which preferentially bind branched DNA molecules in vitro. We found that Zip2 and Spo16 share structural similarities to the structure-specific XPF–ERCC1 nuclease, although it lacks endonuclease activity. The XPF domain of Zip2 is required for crossover formation, suggesting that, together with Spo16, it has a noncatalytic DNA recognition function. Our results suggest that the ZZS complex shepherds recombination intermediates toward crossovers as a dynamic structural module that connects recombination events to the chromosome axis. The identification of the ZZS complex improves our understanding of the various activities required for crossover implementation and is likely applicable to other organisms, including mammals.

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.
