Genome-wide analysis of chromatin and transcription in the ciliates Oxytricha trifallax and Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:DNA N6-adenine methylation (6mA) has recently been reported in diverse eukaryotes, spanning unicellular organisms to metazoans. Yet the functional significance of 6mA remains elusive due to its low abundance, difficulty of manipulation within native DNA, and lack of understanding of eukaryotic 6mA writers. Through biochemical fractionation of nuclear extracts, we identify a putative DNA 6mA methyltransferase in ciliates, termed MTA1. It contains an MT-A70 domain but is phylogenetically distinct from all known RNA and DNA methyltransferases. Disruption of MTA1 leads to the genome-wide loss of 6mA in vegetative cells and abolishment of the consensus ApT dimethylated motif in vivo. Genes exhibit subtle changes in chromatin organization or RNA expression upon 6mA loss, depending on their starting methylation level. Mutants fail to complete the sexual cycle, which normally coincides with a peak of MTA1 expression. Thus, MTA1 functions in a developmental stage-specific manner. We then determine the impact of 6mA on chromatin organization in vitro by reconstructing full-length ciliate chromosomes harboring 6mA in native or ectopic positions. Using these synthetic chromosomes, we show that 6mA directly disfavors nucleosomes in a local, quantitative manner in vitro, independent of DNA sequence. Furthermore, the chromatin remodeler ACF can overcome this effect. Our study identifies a novel MT-A70 protein necessary for eukaryotic 6mA methylation and defines the impact of 6mA on chromatin organization using epigenetically defined chromosomes.

Mating of the stichotrichous ciliate Oxytricha trifallax induces production of a class of 27nt small RNAs derived from the parental macronucleus

Project description:Here we report that soon after mating of Oxytricha trifallax, abundant 27nt small RNAs are produced that are not present prior to mating. We performed next generation sequencing of these 27nt RNAs from various times after mating. Using sequence comparisons between macronuclear and micronuclear versions of genes, we found that this 27nt RNA class derives from the parental macronucleus, not the developing macronucleus. These small RNAs are produced equally from both strands of macronuclear nanochromosomes, but in a highly non-uniform distribution along the length of the nanochromosome, and with a particular depletion in the 30 nt telomere-proximal positions. Unlike the Tetrahymena scanRNAs, the Oxytricha macronuclear-derived 27mers are not modified by 2'O-methylation at their 3' ends.
