Project description:We resport the changes in gene expression occuring after heat exposure in C. elegans with low s-adenosylmethionine, or RNAi of two H3K4 methyltransferases Using a C. elegans model of low SAM, we previously found that transcriptional responses response to a bacterial pathogen failed and these bacterial-response genes did not show normal H3K4me3 close to the transcriptional start sites, (Ding et al. 2015 Cell Metabolism). We also found the HMT set-16/MLL was required for full induction, whereas set-2/SET1 appeared dispensable (Ding et al. 2015 Cell Metabolism). We hypothesized that animals with low SAM might fail to transcriptionally respond to stress and that the HMTs may also have distinct roles in modulating stress responses. In our present study, we set out to compare induction of transcriptional responses and survival upon stress exposure between C. elegans with reduced SAM (sams-1(RNAi)) and animals with limited H3K4me3 function, set-2/SET1, and set-16/MLL RNAi. Because distinct stresses may rely on different transcriptional activation mechanisms, we also compared whole-genome expression patterns in three stresses: pathogenic bacteria (PA14), xenotoxic (R24) and heat in response to each RNAi.

Project description:Environmental stress-induced transgenerational epigenetic effects have been observed in various model organisms and human. The capacity and mechanism of such phenomena, particularly in animals, are poorly understood. In C. elegans, siRNA mediates transgenerational gene silencing through the germline nuclear RNAi pathway. At the organismal level, this pathway plays a transgenerational role in maintaining the germline immortality when C. elegans is under a mild heat stress. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is unknown. In this study, we performed a 12-generation temperature-shift experiment (15˚C->23˚C->15˚C) using the wild type (N2) and a mutant strain that lacks the germline-specific nuclear AGO protein HRDE-1/WAGO-9. We found that the temperature-sensitive mortal germline (Mrt) phenotype of the hrde-1 mutant is reversible, indicating a transgenerational cumulative but also reversible nature of the underlying molecular cause. By taking the whole-genome RNA and chromatin profiling approaches, we revealed an epigenetic role of HRDE-1 in repressing heat stress-induced transcriptional activation of over 280 genes, predominantly in or near LTR retrotransposons. Strikingly, for some of these elements, the heat stress-induced transcription becomes progressively activated in the hrde-1 mutant over several generations under heat stress. Furthermore, the effect of heat stress-induced transcription activation is heritable for at least two generations after the heat stress. Interestingly, the siRNA expression of these genes tend to be heat-inducible in the wild type animals, but not in the hrde-1 mutant, suggesting a role of siRNAs in repressing heat-inducible elements. Our study revealed a novel phenomenon of transgenerational feed-forward transcriptional activation, which is normally repressed in the wild type C. elegans by the germline nuclear RNAi pathway. It also provides a new paradigm to study epigenetic circuitry that connects the environment and gene regulation in the germline.
