H3K9me2 and BRCA1 cooperate to prevent satellite repeat transcription, R-loop formation and germline sterility [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Repetitive sequences, transposable elements and silent tissue-specific genes in C. elegans are differentially enriched for di- and tri-methyl H3 lysine 9 (H3K9). SET-25 (SUV39h1/h2) catalyzes H3K9me3, while MET-2 (SetDB1) deposits only H3K9me1/me2. RNA-seq and genome-wide H3K9 methylation mapping in met-2 and set-25 single mutants showed that H3K9me2-mediated repression of satellite repeats by MET-2 correlates with germline integrity. Aberrant transcription of repeats and DNA transposons generates R-loops, loss of fertility and hydroxyurea hypersensitivity. In a genome-wide synthetic lethal screen, we identified the BRCA1 complex and factors implicated in the degradation of nuclear RNA as essential for germline integrity in met-2 mutants. Highly additive with met-2, the loss of the BRCA1 complex triggers satellite repeat transcription, generating R-loops on transcribed repeats. Supporting direct causality between satellite repeat transcription and BRCA1-mediated genome integrity, the targeted induction of MSAT1 transcripts at endogenous sites leads to damage-induced loss of fertility in wild-type C. elegans.

Vitamin C Induces Specific Demethylation of H3K9me2 in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells via Kdm3a/b

Project description:Histone methylation patterns regulate gene expression and are highly dynamic during development. The erasure of histone methylation is carried out by histone demethylase enzymes. We had previously shown that vitamin C enhances the activity of Tet enzymes in embryonic stem (ES) cells, leading to DNA demethylation and activation of germline genes. We report here that vitamin C induces a remarkably specific demethylation of histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) in ES cells. Vitamin C treatment reduces global levels of H3K9me2, but not other histone methylation marks analyzed, as measured by Western blot, immunofluorescence and mass spectrometry. Vitamin C leads to widespread loss of H3K9me2 at large chromosomal domains as well as gene promoters and repeat elements. Vitamin C-induced loss of H3K9me2 occurs rapidly within 24 hours and is reversible. Importantly, we found that the histone demethylases Kdm3a and Kdm3b are required for vitamin C-induced demethylation of H3K9me2. Moreover, we show that vitamin C-induced Kdm3a/b-mediated H3K9me2 demethylation and Tet-mediated DNA demethylation are independent processes. Lastly, we document Kdm3a/b are partially required for the up-regulation of germline genes by vitamin C. These results reveal a specific role for vitamin C in histone demethylation in ES cells, and document that DNA methylation and H3K9me2 cooperate to silence germline genes in pluripotent cells.

A team of heterochromatin factors collaborates with small RNA pathways to combat repetitive elements and germline stress [RNA-seq]

Project description:Repetitive sequences derived from transposons make up a large fraction of eukaryotic genomes and must be silenced to protect genome integrity. Repetitive elements are often found in heterochromatin; however, the roles and interactions of heterochromatin proteins in repeat regulation are poorly understood. Here we show that a diverse set of C. elegans heterochromatin proteins act together with the piRNA and nuclear RNAi pathways to silence repetitive elements and prevent genotoxic stress in the germ line. Mutants in genes encoding HPL-2/HP1, LIN-13, LIN-61, LET-418/Mi-2, and H3K9me2 histone methyltransferase MET-2/SETDB1 also show functionally redundant sterility, increased germline apoptosis, DNA repair defects, and interactions with small RNA pathways. Remarkably, fertility of heterochromatin mutants could be partially restored by inhibiting cep-1/p53, endogenous meiotic double strand breaks, or the expression of MIRAGE1 DNA transposons. Functional redundancy among these factors and pathways underlies the importance of safeguarding the genome through multiple means.

DNA methylation profiling to assess pathogenicity of BRCA1 unclassified variants in breast cancer

Project description:The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across 485,577 CpGs . Samples were restored FFPE DNA extracted from breast tumours in 3 groups; BRCA1 germline mutated tumours (BRCA1), BRCA1 germline wildtype tumours from women from high risk families (BRCAx) and the designated test variant tumours (BRCA1UV).

Protease-mediated processing of Argonaute proteins controls small RNA association [small RNA RIP-seq]

Project description:Small RNA pathways defend the germlines of animals against selfish genetic elements and help to maintain genomic integrity. At the same time, their activity needs to be well-controlled to prevent silencing of ‘self’ genes. Here, we reveal a proteolytic mechanism that controls endogenous small interfering (22G) RNA activity in the Caenorhabditis elegans germline to protect genome integrity and maintain fertility. We find that WAGO-1 and WAGO-3 Argonaute proteins are produced as pro-proteins that are matured through proteolytic processing of their unusually proline-rich N-termini. In the absence of DPF-3, a P-granule-localized N-terminal dipeptidase orthologous to mammalian DPP8/9, processing fails, causing a change of identity of 22G RNAs bound to these WAGO proteins. Accumulation of repeat- and transposon-derived transcripts, DNA damage and sterility ensue. We propose that DPF-3 acts as a licensing factor for 22G RNA activity.
