Systematic Analysis of Long Intergenic Non-Coding RNAs in C. elegans Germline Uncovers Roles in Somatic Growth

Project description:Long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) are transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that are transcribed from non-coding loci yet undergo biosynthesis similar to coding mRNAs. The disproportional number of lincRNAs expressed in testes suggests that lincRNAs are important during gametogenesis, but experimental evidence has implicated very few lincRNAs in this process. We took advantage of the relatively limited number of lincRNAs in the genome of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to systematically analyse the functions of lincRNAs during meiosis. We deleted six lincRNA genes that are highly and dynamically expressed in the C. elegans gonad and tested the effects on central meiotic processes. Surprisingly, whereas the lincRNA deletions did not strongly impact fertility, germline apoptosis, crossovers, or synapsis, linc-4 was required for somatic growth. Slower growth was observed in linc-4-deletion mutants and in worms depleted of linc-4 using RNAi, indicating that linc-4 transcripts are required for this post-embryonic process. Unexpectedly, analysis of worms depleted of linc-4 in soma versus germline showed that the somatic role stems from linc-4 expression in germline cells. This unique feature suggests that some lincRNAs, like some small non-coding RNAs, are required for germ-soma interactions

H3K36me2 recruits DNMT3A and shapes intergenic DNA methylation landscapes

Project description:Enzymes catalyzing CpG methylation in DNA, including DNMT1 and DNMT3A/B, are indispensable for mammalian tissue development and homeostasis. They are also implicated in human developmental disorders and cancers, supporting a critical role of DNA methylation during cell fate specification and maintenance. Recent studies suggest that histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) are involved in specifying patterns of DNMT localization and DNA methylation at promoters and actively transcribed gene bodies. However, mechanisms governing the establishment and maintenance of intergenic DNA methylation remain poorly understood. Germline mutations in DNMT3A lead to a childhood overgrowth syndrome that is phenotypically overlapping with Sotos syndrome caused by haploinsufficiency of NSD1, a histone methyltransferase catalyzing di-methylation on H3K36 (H3K36me2), pointing to a potential mechanistic link between the two disorders. Here we report that NSD1-mediated H3K36me2 is required for recruitment of DNMT3A and maintenance of DNA methylation at intergenic regions. Genome-wide analysis shows binding and activity of DNMT3A are co-localized with H3K36me2 at non-coding regions of euchromatin. Genetic ablation of NSD1 and its paralogue NSD2 in mouse and human cells redistributes DNMT3A to H3K36me3-marked gene bodies and reduces intergenic DNA methylation. NSD1 mutant tumors and Sotos patient samples are also associated with intergenic DNA hypomethylation. Consistently, PWWP-domain of DNMT3A shows dual recognition of H3K36me2/3 in vitro with a higher binding affinity towards H3K36me2, which is abrogated by overgrowth syndrome-derived missense mutations. Taken together, our study uncovers a trans-chromatin regulatory pathway that, when perturbed, promotes neoplastic and developmental overgrowth.

Systematic identification of factors involved in the silencing of germline genes in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:In mammals, many germline genes are repressed by epigenetic mechanisms to prevent their illegitimate expression in embryonic and somatic cells. To advance our understanding of the complete mechanisms restricting the expression of germline genes in mammals, we analyzed the chromatin signature of germline genes and performed a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knock-out screen for genes involved in germline gene repression using a reporter system in which GFP is under the control of the epigenetically repressed Dazl germline promoter in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We showed that the repression of germline genes mainly depends on the polycomb complex PRC1.6 and DNA methylation, which function additively in mouse ESCs. Furthermore, we identified and validated several novel genes involved in the repression of germline genes, and characterized three of them: Usp7, Shfm1 (also known as Sem1) and Erh. Inactivation of Usp7, Shfm1 or Erh led to the upregulation of germline genes, as well as retrotransposons for Shfm1, in mouse ESCs. Functionally, Usp7 acts at two levels: firstly it associates with PRC1.6 components and represses germline genes independently of DNA methylation, and secondly it facilitates DNA methylation deposition at germline genes for long term repression. In summary, our study provides a global view of the epigenetic mechanisms and novel factors required for silencing germline genes in embryonic cells.
