Project description:In mammals, the acquisition of the germline from the soma provides the germline with an essential challenge, the necessity to erase and reset genomic methylation. In the male germline RNA-directed DNA methylation silences young active transposable elements (TEs). The PIWI protein MIWI2 (PIWIL4) and its associated PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are proposed to tether MIWI2 to nascent TE transcripts and instruct DNA methylation. The mechanism by which MIWI2 directs de novo TE methylation is poorly understood but central to the immortality of the germline. Here, we define the interactome of MIWI2 in foetal gonocytes that are undergoing de novo genome methylation and identify a novel MIWI2-associated factor, SPOCD1, that is essential for young TE methylation and silencing. The loss of Spocd1 in mice results in male specific infertility and does not impact on piRNA biogenesis nor localization of MIWI2 to the nucleus. SPOCD1 is a nuclear protein and its expression is restricted to the period of de novo genome methylation. We found SPOCD1 co-purified in vivo with DNMT3L and DNMT3A, components of the de novo methylation machinery as well as constituents of the NURD and BAF chromatin remodelling complexes. We propose a model whereby tethering of MIWI2 to a nascent TE transcript recruits repressive chromatin remodelling activities and the de novo methylation apparatus through its association with SPOCD1. In summary, we have identified a novel and essential executor of mammalian piRNA-directed DNA methylation.

Project description:DNA (cytosine-5) methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) is essential for mammalian development and maintenance of DNA methylation following DNA replication in cells. The DNA methylation process generates S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine, a strong inhibitor of DNMT1. Here we report that S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH/AHCY), the only mammalian enzyme capable of hydrolyzing S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine binds to DNMT1 during DNA replication. SAHH activates DNMT1 in vitro and its overexpression in mammalian cells leads to hypermethylation of the genome, whereas its inhibition by adenosine periodate resulted in hypomethylation of the genome. Hypermethylation was consistent in both gene bodies and repetitive DNA elements leading to both down- and up-regulation of genes. Similarly, hypomethylation led to both up- and down-regulation of genes suggesting methylated regions influence gene expression either positively or negatively. Cells overexpressing SAHH specifically up-regulated metabolic pathway genes and down-regulated PPAR and MAPK signaling pathways genes. Therefore, we suggest that alteration of SAHH level in the cell leads to aberrant DNA methylation, altered metabolite levels and gene expression.

Project description:DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification. DNA methylation phenomenon exists widely in bacteria, plants and animals and is involved in a variety of biological processes.The wild Lactobacillus casei Zhang and its mutant Lactobacillus casei Zhang Δpglx were used as the research subjects.Proteomics was used to explore the effects of DNA methylation on various aspects of Lactobacillus casei.

Project description:We intend to establish an efficient method for plasma cfDNA extraction and Bisulfite transformation to facilitate the detection of DNA methylation status using multiplex fluorescence PCR. Meanwhile, we expect to identify several plasma methylation markers that can be highly sensitive for multi-cancer detection. Finally, we will provide a pan-cancer blood test that is easy to operate, low cost, accurate and easy to promote.
