Project description:Spermatogenesis is a recurring differentiation process that results in the production of male gametes within the testes. During this process, spermatogonial stem cells differentiate to form spermatocytes, which undergo two rounds of meiotic division to form haploid spermatids. Throughout spermiogenesis, round spermatids elongate to form mature sperm. To profile changes in chromatin marks between spermatocytes and spermatids, we generated CUT&RUN data of H3K4me3, H3K27ac and H3K9me3 marks in sorted spermatocytes and spermatids.

Project description:Expression profiling of isolated populations of prepachytene spermatocytes (LP), pachytene spermatocytes (RP) and spermatids (ST) from PWD and B6 was performed to study the genome wide variation in gene expression between two mouse subspecies. To evaluate the transcriptional difference between B6 and PWD in during meiosis, we compared their transcriptomes in sorted populations of pre-pachytene primary spermatocytes (Leptonema, Zygotene and Pachytene), pachytene spermatocytes (Mid-late pachytene and diplotene) and spermatids.

Populations of pre-pachytene spermatocytes, pachytene spermatocytes and spermatids were isolated from PWD and B6 mice. All populations were isolated in duplicates from two animals. Hence, RNA was prepared from 12 samples (= 2 strains x 3 tissues x 2 replicas) and was then subject to labeling and hybridization on microarray chips.

Project description:Comparison of gene expression differences between Dnmt3L heterozygous and wildtype pachytene spermatocytes, and similarly between Dnmt3L heterozygous and wildtype round spermatids which were isolated from the Dnmt3L knockout mouse line. This array was conducted to address the hypothesis that Dnmt3L heterozygosity results in deregulated gene expression within spermatocytes and spermatids. Results show that Dnmt3L heterozygosity causes numerous genes to be differentially regulated on a genome-wide level, showing that DNMT3L has an important role in regulating gene expression within these male germ cells. Three preparations each of Dnmt3L purified wildtype spermatocytes, wildtype spermatids, heterozygous spermatids, and two preparations of heterozygous spermatocytes were isolated for a total of 11 samples. Each preparation was made up of cells isolated from 10 mice.

Project description:Background: The ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme HR6B is required for spermatogenesis in mouse. Loss of HR6B results in aberrant histone modification patterns on the trancriptionally silenced X and Y chromosomes (XY body) and on centromeric chromatin in meiotic prophase. We studied the relationship between these chromatin modifications and their effects on global gene expression patterns, in spermatocytes and spermatids. Results: HR6B is enriched on the XY body and on centromeric regions in pachytene spermatocytes. Global gene expression analyses revealed that spermatid-specific single- and multicopy X-linked genes are prematurely expressed in Hr6b knockout spermatocytes. Very few other differences in gene expression were observed in these cells, except for upregulation of major satellite repeat transcription. In contrast, in Hr6b knockout spermatids, 7298 genes were differentially expressed; 65% of these genes was downregulated, but we observed a global upregulation of gene transcription from the X chromosome. In wildtype spermatids, approximately 20% of the single-copy X-linked genes reach an average expression level that is similar to the average expression from autosomes. Conclusions: Spermatids maintain an enrichment of repressive chromatin marks on the X chromosome, originating from meiotic prophase, but this does not interfere with transcription of the single-copy X-linked genes that are reactivated or specifically activated in spermatids. HR6B represses major satellite repeat transcription in spermatocytes, and functions in the maintenance of X chromosome silencing in spermatocytes and spermatids. It is discussed that these functions involve modification of chromatin structure, possibly including H2B ubiquitylation. 8 Affymetrix microarrays were generated: 4 from wildtype and HR6B knockout spermatocytes (2 replicates each), and 4 from wildtype and HR6B knockout spermatids (2 replicates each).

Project description:MiRNA expression profiling of isolated populations of prepachytene spermatocytes (LP), pachytene spermatocytes (RP) and spermatids (ST) from PWD and B6 was performed to study the genome wide variation in miRNA expression between two mouse subspecies. Populations of pre-pachytene spermatocytes, pachytene spermatocytes and spermatids were isolated from PWD and B6 mice. All populations were isolated in triplicates from two bilogical replicas Hence, RNA was prepared from 18 samples and was then subject to labeling and hybridization on microarray chips.

Project description:Gene expression during spermatogenesis undergoes significant changes due to a demanding sequence of mitosis, meiosis and differentiation. Round spermatids have to prepare for DNA condensation as well as synthesize transcripts of genes required for the differentiation process. However, the mechanisms of gene activation and silencing in round spermatids remain largely unknown. We employed ChIP-seq to figure out the correlation of H3K4me3 and H3K9me3 marks with transcriptional activation and silencing in round spermatids. Out of about 2800 genes identified by H3K4me3 chipseq, transcriptome sequencing in purified round spermatids showed the presence of transcripts corresponding to about 64% of the genes. On the other hand, only about 25% of H3K9me3 enriched genes showed transcription in round spermatids, that too at very low levels. In conclusion, H3K4me3 enrichment in round spermatids correlates significantly with gene expression and H3K9me3 correlates with gene silencing, both of which are equally important for successful spermatogenesis.
