Project description:During meiotic prophase, cohesin-dependent axial structures are formed in the synaptonemal complex (SC). However, functional correlation between these structure formation and cohesion remains elusive. Here we examined formation of the cohesin-dependent axial structure in fission yeast, which forms atypical SCs composed of linear elements (LinEs) resembling the lateral elements of SC but lacking the central elements, and found that Rec8 cohesin is crucial for the formation of the loop-axis structure within the atypical SC. Furthermore, the Rec8-mediated loop-axis structure is formed in the absence of LinEs, and provides a structural platform for aligning homologous chromosomes. We also succeeded to identify a rec8 mutant that lost the ability of assembling the loop-axis structure without losing cohesion. Remarkably, this mutant showed defects in LinE assembly, resulting in great reduction of meiotic recombination. Collectively, our results demonstrate an essential role of the Rec8-dependent loop-axis structure in LinE assembly, facilitating meiotic recombination.

Project description:The mitotic cohesin complex necessary for sister chromatid cohesion and chromatin loop formation shows local and global association to chromosomes in response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Here, by genome-wide binding analysis of the meiotic cohesin with Rec8 as a kleisin, we found that Rec8 shows dynamic localization from middle to late meiotic prophase I with cleavage-independent global dissociation along chromosomes, driven by meiotic DSB formation. Each Rec8 binding site on the chromosome axis follows distinct dynamics with dissociation and association. Centromeres also showed reduced Rec8 binding in late prophase I relative to mid-prophase I, implying chromosome remodeling of the regions. Rec8 dissociation profile per chromosome is largely correlated with meiotic DSB density. Indeed, the spo11 mutant deficient in meiotic DSB formation did not show the cleavage-independent dissociation of Rec8 in late meiotic prophase I. These suggest the presence of a regulatory pathway for global Rec8-cohesin dynamics in response to meiotic DSBs.

Project description:Meiotic chromosome architecture called M-bM-^@M-^\axis-loop structuresM-bM-^@M-^] and histone modifications have been demonstrated to regulate the Spo11-dependent formation of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that trigger meiotic recombination. Using genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analyses followed by deep sequencing, we compared the genome-wide distribution of the axis protein Rec8 (the kleisin subunit of meiotic cohesin) with that of oligomeric DNA covalently bound to Spo11, indicative of DSB sites. The frequency of DSB sites is overall constant between Rec8 binding sites. However, DSB cold spots are observed in regions spanning M-BM-10.8 kb around Rec8 binding sites. The axis-associated cold spots are not due to exclusion of Spo11 localization from the axis, since ChIP experiments revealed that substantial Spo11 persists at Rec8 binding sites during DSB formation. Spo11 fused with Gal4 DNA binding domain (Gal4BD-Spo11) tethered in close proximity (M-bM-^IM-$0.8 kb) to Rec8 binding sites hardly forms meiotic DSBs, in contrast with other regions. In addition, H3K4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3) remarkably decreases at Rec8 binding sites. These results suggest that reduced histone H3K4me3 in combination with inactivation of Spo11 activity on the axis discourages DSB hot spot formation.

Project description:Meiotic chromosome architecture called “axis-loop structures” and histone modifications have been demonstrated to regulate the Spo11-dependent formation of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that trigger meiotic recombination. Using genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analyses followed by deep sequencing, we compared the genome-wide distribution of the axis protein Rec8 (the kleisin subunit of meiotic cohesin) with that of oligomeric DNA covalently bound to Spo11, indicative of DSB sites. The frequency of DSB sites is overall constant between Rec8 binding sites. However, DSB cold spots are observed in regions spanning ±0.8 kb around Rec8 binding sites. The axis-associated cold spots are not due to exclusion of Spo11 localization from the axis, since ChIP experiments revealed that substantial Spo11 persists at Rec8 binding sites during DSB formation. Spo11 fused with Gal4 DNA binding domain (Gal4BD-Spo11) tethered in close proximity (≤0.8 kb) to Rec8 binding sites hardly forms meiotic DSBs, in contrast with other regions. In addition, H3K4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3) remarkably decreases at Rec8 binding sites. These results suggest that reduced histone H3K4me3 in combination with inactivation of Spo11 activity on the axis discourages DSB hot spot formation.

Project description:Spo11-mediated DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) that initiate meiotic recombination are temporally and spatially controlled. The meiotic cohesin Rec8 has been implicated in regulating DSB formation, but little is known about the features of their interplay. To shed light on this point, we investigated the genome-wide localization of Spo11 in budding yeast during early meiosis by chromatin immunoprecipitation using high-density tiling arrays. We found that Spo11 is dynamically localized to meiotic chromosomes. Spo11 initially accumulated around centromeres and thereafter localized to arm regions as premeiotic S-phase proceeded. During this stage, a substantial proportion of Spo11 bound to Rec8 binding sites. Eventually, some of Spo11 further bound to both DSB and Rec8 sites. We also showed that such a change in a distribution of Spo11 is affected by hydroxyurea (HU) treatment. Interestingly, deletion of REC8 influences the localization of Spo11 to centromeres and in some of the intervals of the chromosomal arms. Thereby we observed a lack of DSB formation in a region-specific manner. These observations suggest that Rec8 would prearrange the distribution of Spo11 along chromosomes and will provide clues to understanding temporal and spatial regulation of DSB formation.

Project description:We generated and sequenced ChIP libraries for the meiotic cohesin subunit REC8 and four histone modifications (H3K4me1, H3K4me2, H3K9me2 and H3K27me1) to investigate their relationships with meiotic chromosome architecture and recombination in Arabidopsis thaliana. REC8 and H3K9me2 ChIP-seq were performed using meiotic-stage floral buds from wild type (Col-0) and non-CG DNA methylation/H3K9me2 pathway mutant (kyp/suvh4 suvh5 suvh6 or cmt3) plants to examine the role of heterochromatin assembly in meiotic cohesin distribution.

Project description:During mouse meiosis, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are initiated by SPO11 at recombination hotspots (HSs), activated by PRDM9. Although activated HSs are marked by H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 histone modifications at open chromatin, most of the DSB-initiating and repair proteins are associated with the chromosome axis. This study addresses the mechanistic importance of the axis-associated cohesin proteins in DSB formation. We demonstrate that interactions between PRDM9 and the meiotic axis proteins STAG3 and REC8 are essential for efficient DSB formation. The absence of STAG3 or REC8 leads to inefficient meiotic DSB formation at HSs. STAG3 is critical for DSB formation, even at PRDM9-independent DSB-sites. Also, STAG3 and REC8 facilitate recruitment of the DSB-promoting proteins HORMAD1, IHO1 and MEI4 required for SPO11 activity. Together, these results support an evolutionarily conserved model in which axis-associated cohesin complexes recruit recombination-initiating proteins to DSB sites to promote meiotic recombination initiation.
