Project description:Chromosome rearrangements in small apes are up to 20 times more frequent than in most mammals. Because of their complexity, the full extent of chromosome evolution in these hominoids is not yet fully documented. However, previous work with array painting, BAC-FISH and selective sequencing in two of the four karyomorphs, has shown that high resolution methods can precisely define chromosome breakpoints and map the complex flow of evolutionary chromosome rearrangements. Here we use these tools to precisely define the rearrangements that have occurred in the remaining two karyomorphs, genera Symphalangus (2n=50), and Hoolock (2n=38). This research provides the most comprehensive insight into the evolutionary origins of chromosome rearrangements involved in transforming small apes genome. Bioinformatics analyses of the human-gibbon synteny breakpoints revealed association with transposable elements and segmental duplications providing some insight into the mechanisms that might have promoted rearrangements in small apes. In the near future, the comparison of gibbon genome sequences will provide novel insights to test hypotheses concerning the mechanisms of chromosome evolution. The precise definition of synteny block boundaries and orientation, chromosomal fusions, and centromere repositioning event presented here will facilitate genome sequence assembly for these close relatives of humans.

Project description:Centromeres are functionally conserved chromosomal loci essential for proper chromosome segregation during cell division, yet they show high sequence diversity across species. A near universal feature of centromeres is the presence of repetitive sequences, such as satellites and transposable elements (TEs). Because of their rapidly evolving karyotypes, gibbons represent a compelling model to investigate divergence of functional centromere sequences across short evolutionary timescales. Previously, we identified a novel composite retrotransposon, LAVA, that is exclusive to gibbons and expanded within the centromere regions of one gibbon genus, Hoolock. In this study, we use ChIP-seq, RNA-seq and fluorescence in situ hybridization to comprehensively investigate the repeat content of centromeres of the four extant gibbon genera (Hoolock, Hylobates, Nomascus and Siamang). We find that CENP-A nucleosomes and the DNA-protein interface with the inner kinetochore are enriched in retroelements in all gibbon genera, rather than satellite DNA. We find that LAVA in Hoolock is enriched in the centromeres of most chromosomes and shows centromere- and species-specific sequence and structural differences compared to other genera, potentially as a result of its co-option to a centromeric function. In contrast, we found that a centromeric retroelement-derived macrosatellite, SST1, corresponds with chromosome breakpoint reuse across gibbons and shows high sequence conservation across genera. Finally, using de novo assembly of centromere-specific sequences, we determine that transcripts originating from gibbon centromeres recapitulate species-specific TE diversity. Combined, our data reveals dynamic, species-specific shifts in repeat content that define gibbon centromeres and coincide with the extensive karyotypic diversity observed within this lineage.

Project description:Gibbons (Hylobatidae) shared a common ancestor with the other hominoids only 15-18 million years ago. Nevertheless, gibbons show very distinctive features that include heavily rearranged chromosomes. Previous observations indicate that this phenomenon may be linked to the attenuated epigenetic repression of transposable elements (TEs) in gibbon species. Here we describe the massive expansion of a repeat in almost all the centromeres of the eastern hoolock gibbon (Hoolock leuconedys). We discovered that this repeat is a new composite TE originating from the combination of portions of three other elements (L1ME5, AluSz6, and SVA_A) and thus named it LAVA. We determined that this repeat is found in all the gibbons but does not occur in other hominoids. Detailed investigation of 46 different LAVA elements revealed that the majority of them have target site duplications (TSDs) and a poly-A tail, suggesting that they have been retrotransposing in the gibbon genome. Although we did not find a direct correlation between the emergence of LAVA elements and human-gibbon synteny breakpoints, this new composite transposable element is another mark of the great plasticity of the gibbon genome. Moreover, the centromeric expansion of LAVA insertions in the hoolock closely resembles the massive centromeric expansion of the KERV-1 retroelement reported for wallaby (marsupial) interspecific hybrids. The similarity between the two phenomena is consistent with the hypothesis that evolution of the gibbons is characterized by defects in epigenetic repression of TEs, perhaps triggered by interspecific hybridization.
