Project description:We present the first experimental evidence that loss of DNA methylation at late-replicating regions, widely documented in aging and cancer, is directly driven by cell division. DNA hypomethylation, particularly at low-density CpGs in A:T-rich, partially methylated domains (PMD solo-WCGWs), tracks cumulative population doublings in primary cell culture. Cell cycle deceleration or full arrest resulted in a proportional decrease in the rate of DNA methylation loss. Lower culture oxygen conditions resulted in a slowed rate of methylation loss, suggesting that these CpGs may also be vulnerable to methylation loss during unscheduled, repair-associated methylation maintenance as well as scheduled, replication-associated methylation maintenance. By studying this methylation context in immortalized primary cells, we identified genomic and epigenomic features that are resistant or more susceptible to methylation loss. Finally, we leveraged this extensive DNA methylation dataset to develop a refined metric for the relative cumulative mitotic histories of human cells. These RNA-sequencing data accompany the larger DNA methylation dataset.

Project description:The methylation state of lysine 20 on histone H4 (H4K20) has been linked to cell cycle progression, Origin Recognition Complex (ORC) binding, and replication origin regulation. Monomethylation of H4K20 (H4K20me1) is mediated by the cell cycle-regulated histone methyltransferase PR-Set7, which is essential for genome integrity and cell cycle progression. PR-Set7 depletion in mammalian cells results in defective S-phase progression and the accumulation of DNA damage, which could be partially attributed to a defect in pre-Replication Complex (pre-RC) formation and origin activity. However, these studies were limited to a handful of mammalian origins, and it remains unclear how PR-Set7 and H4K20 methylation impact the replication program on a genomic scale. Using Drosophila Kc167 cells, we employed genetic, cytological, and genomic approaches to better understand the role of PR-Set7 and H4K20 methylation in regulating DNA replication and governing genome stability. We find that depletion of Drosophila PR-Set7 and loss of H4K20me1 result in the accumulation of DNA damage and an ATR-dependent cell cycle arrest. The cell cycle arrest occurs during the second S-phase following loss of PR-Set7 activity, suggesting that accumulation of nascent H4K20 is recalcitrant to the DNA replication program. Deregulation of H4K20 methylation had no impact on origin activation throughout the genome; instead, we found that the DNA damage marker, phosphorylated H2A.v (γ-H2A.v), accumulated specifically in late replicating domains in the absence of PR-Set7. This suggests that the molecular basis for the cell cycle arrest and accumulation of DNA damage resulting from loss of PR-Set7 is stochastic fork collapse within late replicating domains.

Project description:The cell division protein SepF aligns polymers formed by the key cell division protein FtsZ during synthesis of the (Fts)Z-ring at midcell, the first stage in cytokinesis. In addition, SepF acts as a membrane anchor for the Z-ring. SepF is conserved in Gram-positive and cyanobacteria. Recently, it was shown that SepF overproduction in Mycobacterium smegmatis blocks cell division. Here we investigated this in more detail using the Gram-positive model system Bacillus subtilis. Surprisingly, overproduction of SepF does not interfere with assembly of the Z-ring, but blocks assembly of the late cell division proteins responsible for septum synthesis. Transposon mutagenesis suggested that SepF overproduction inactivates the WalKR two-component system involved in cell division. Indeed, SepF overproduction impairs WalK localization, possibly because septal WalK localization requires late cell division proteins. Unexpectedly, transcriptome analysis showed that WalKR activity was not affected. Another surprise was that the cell division phenotype occurs when SepF does not bind to FtsZ. Further analyses provided an explanation for the contradictory transposon and transcriptome results, and suggested that SepF competes with other cell division proteins for binding to FtsZ. Our data show that an imbalance in early cell division proteins can interfere with recruitment of late cell division proteins.

Project description:DNA methylation loss occurs frequently in cancer genomes, primarily within lamina-associated, late-replicating regions termed partially methylated domains (PMDs). We profiled 39 diverse primary tumors and 8 matched adjacent tissues using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) and analyzed them alongside 343 additional human and 206 mouse WGBS datasets. We identified a local CpG sequence context associated with preferential hypomethylation in PMDs. Analysis of CpGs in this context ('solo-WCGWs') identified previously undetected PMD hypomethylation in almost all healthy tissue types. PMD hypomethylation increased with age, beginning during fetal development, and appeared to track the accumulation of cell divisions. In cancer, PMD hypomethylation depth correlated with somatic mutation density and cell cycle gene expression, consistent with its reflection of mitotic history and suggesting its application as a mitotic clock. We propose that late replication leads to lifelong progressive methylation loss, which acts as a biomarker for cellular aging and which may contribute to oncogenesis.
