Project description:We report the generation of CRISPR-dCas9 DNA methyltransferases to mediate targeted DNA methylation. Using the dCas9-BFP-DNMT3A and dCas9-BFP-DNMT3B methyltransferases, we have demonstrated that these two methyltransferase can mediate targeted methylation in three human genes tested: uPA, TGFBR3, and CDKN2A in human HEK293T cells. We also showed that these methyltransferases could mediate gene inhibition. five samples co-transfected with five uPA sgRNAs and each of the four dCas9 fusions, or control transfection with pUC19 plasmid

Project description:Fusion of active protein domains to the nuclease-deficient clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) associated protein 9 (dCas9) has been widely used for epigenome editing, but the specificities of these engineered proteins have still not been fully investigated. Targeted methylation of specific gene loci offers a direct approach to perturb DNA methylation-associated biological processes. In this study, we generated and validated the global off-target characteristics of CRISPR-guided DNA methyltransferases (CRISPRme) by fusing the catalytic domain of DNMT3A or DNMT3B to the C terminus of the dCas9 protein from S. pyogenes. Using targeted quantitative bisulfite pyrosequencing and whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS), we prove that CRISPRme can efficiently methylate the CpG dinucleotides flanking its target sites in genomic loci (uPA and TGFBR3) in human cells (HEK293T) with CpG-methylation levels exceeding 70% for some target sites. Using qPCR, fluorescent reporter cells, and RNA sequencing, we found that CRISPRme can mediate transient inhibition of gene expression which appears to result from Cas9-mediated interference with transcription rather than de novo DNA methylation. Analyses of whole genome methylation did not identify global methylation changes, however a substantial number of CRISPRme off-target differentially methylated regions (DMR, over 6000) were still identified. The majority of these DMRs were hypermethylated both in cells expressing CRISPRme alone and cells expressing CRISPRme together with gRNAs. These off-target hypermethylated sites were enriched in gene bodies, introns, 5’UTR, CGI shores, Alu sequences, open chromatin and PAM rich regions, but not correlated with off-target binding sites predicted by ChIP-seq. Our results prove that CRISPRme allows for efficient RNA-guided methylation of endogenous CpGs, however with high frequencies of off-target methylation indicating that further improvements of the specificity of CRISPR-dCas9 based DNA methylation modifiers are still required.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.

Project description:SPO11-promoted DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formation is a crucial step for meiotic recombination, and it is indispensable to detect the broken DNA ends accurately for dissecting the molecular mechanisms behind. Here, we report a novel technique, named DEtail-seq (DNA End tailing followed by sequencing), that can directly and quantitatively capture the meiotic DSB 3’ overhang hotspots at single-nucleotide resolution.
