Project description:Epigenetic modification plays important roles in plant and animal development. DNA methylation can impact the transposable element (TE) silencing, gene imprinting and regulate gene expression.Through a genome-wide analysis, DNA methylation peaks were respectively characterized and mapped in maize embryo and endosperm genome. Distinct methylation level across maize embryo and endosperm was observed. The maize embryo genome contained more DNA methylation peaks than endosperm. However, the endosperm chloroplast genome contained more DNA methylation peaks to compare with the embryo chloroplast genome. DNA methylation regions were characterized and mapped in genome. More CG island (CGI) shore are methylated than CGI in maize suggested that DNA methylation level is not positively correlated with CpG density. The DNA methylation occurred more frequently in the promoter sequence and transcriptional termination region (TTR) than other regions of the genes. The result showed that 99% TEs we characterized are methylated in maize embryo, but some (34.8%) of them are not methylated in endosperm. Maize embryo and endosperm exhibit distinct pattern/level of methylation. The most differentially methylated two regions between embryo and endosperm are High CpG content promoters (HCPs) and high CpG content TTRs (HCTTRs). DNA methylation peaks distinction of mitochondria and chloroplast DNA were less than the nucleus DNA. Our results indicated that DNA methylation is associated with the gene silencing or gene activation in maize endosperm and embryo. Many genes involved in embryogenesis and seed development were found differentially methylated in embryo and endosperm. We found 17 endosperm-specific expressed imprinting genes were hypomethylated in endosperm and were hypermethylated in embryo. The expression of a maize DEMETER -like (DME-like) gene and MBD101 gene (MBD4 homolog) which direct bulk genome DNA demethylation were higher in endosperm than in embryo. These two genes may be associated with the distinct methylation level across maize embryo and endosperm.The methylomes of maize embryo and endosperm was obtained by MeDIP-seq method. The global mapping of maize embryo and endosperm methylation in this study broadened our knowledge of DNA methylation patterns in maize genome, and provided useful information for future studies on maize seed development and regulation of metabolic pathways in different seed tissues. Examination of DNA methylated modifications in 2 maize tissues.

Project description:The coordination of chloroplast and nuclear genome status are critical for plant cell function, but the mechanism remain largely unclear. In this study, we report that Arabidopsis thaliana CHLOROPLAST AND NUCLEUS DUAL-LOCALIZED PROTEIN 1 (CND1) maintains genome stability in both the chloroplast and the nucleus.

Project description:Chloroplasts are organelles responsible for photosynthesis. They originated form a procaryotic ancestor in the process of endosymbiosis and contain their own genomes. The chloroplast genome is packaged into a chromatin-like structure known as the nucleoid. The internal arrangement of the nucleoid, molecular mechanisms of DNA packaging and connection of the nucleoid structure to gene expression remain poorly understood. We show that Arabidopsis thaliana chloroplast nucleoids have a unique organization driven by DNA binding to the thylakoid membranes. Membrane association of specific DNA regions is correlated with high levels of transcription, high protein occupancy and reduced DNA accessibility. Genes with low levels of transcription are further away from the membranes, have lower protein occupancy and higher DNA accessibility. Gene-specific disruption of transcription in sigma factor mutants causes a corresponding reduction in membrane association, indicating that RNA polymerase activity causes DNA tethering to the membranes. We propose that transcription organizes the chloroplast nucleoid into a transcriptionally active membrane-associated core and a less active Periphery.
