Methyl DIP-chip from self-pollinated ddm1 mutant and ddm1 kyp double mutant

ABSTRACT: Methylation of histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9me) and small RNA are associated with constitutively silent chromatin in diverse eukaryotes including plants. In plants, silent transposons are also marked by cytosine methylation, especially at non-CpG sites. The transposon-specific non-CpG methylation in plants is controlled by small RNA and H3K9me. Although it is often assumed that small RNA directs H3K9me,　interaction between small RNA and H3K9me has not been directly shown in plants. We have previously shown that a mutation in a chromatin remodeling gene DDM1 (decrease in DNA methylation) induces a global decrease as well as local increase of cytosine methylation and accumulation of small RNA in a locus called BONSAI. Here we show that the de novo BONSAI methylation does not depend on RNAi but depends on H3K9me. Notably, in mutant of H3K9 methylase gene KRYPTONITE or H3K9me-dependent DNA methylase gene CHROMOMETHYALSE3, the ddm1-induced de novo cytosine methylation was abolished for all three contexts, CpG, CpHpG, and CpHpH. Furthermore, RNAi mutants showed strong developmental defects when combined with ddm1 mutation. Our results revealed unexpected interactions of epigenetic modifications, which could be conserved among diverse eukaryotes. comparison of DNA methylation between WT, 2G ddm1 (2 replications), 8G ddm1 (2 replications), and 8G ddm1 kyp

Mapping regulatory elements using signatures of open chromatin in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:Gene expression is controlled by the complex interaction of transcription factors binding to promoters and other regulatory DNA elements. One common characteristic of the genomic regions associated with regulatory proteins is a pronounced sensitivity to DNase I digestion. We reported genome-wide high resolution maps of DNase I hypersensitive (DH) sites from both seedling and flower tissues of Arabidopsis from the Columbia (Col) ecotype and the corresponding ddm1 (deficient in DNA methylation 1) mutant. We identified 38,290, 41,193, 38,313, and 38,153 DH sites in leaf (Col), flower (Col), ddm1 leaf, and ddm1 flower tissues, respectively. Approximately 45% of the DH sites in all tissue types were located within 1 kb of a transcription start site (TSS), which represents a putative promoter region. Pairwise comparisons of the DH sites derived from different tissue types revealed DH sites specific to each tissue. DH sites are significantly associated with long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and conserved non-coding sequences (CNSs). The binding sites of MADS-domain transcription factors AP1 and SEP3 are highly correlated with DH sites. To map the DH sites in A. thaliana, we constructed a total of five DNase-seq libraries using leaf and flower tissues from the Columbia (Col) ecotype and a ddm1 (deficient in DNA methylation 1) mutant of Columbia. These libraries were sequenced using the Illumina Genome Analyzer. We obtained a total of 190 million (M) sequence reads from these libraries. Approximately 114 M reads had a single sequence match in the A. thaliana genome

Genome-wide analysis of H3K9me2 in ibm1, kyp, and cmt3 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:In diverse eukaryotes, constitutively silent sequences, such as transposons and repeats, are marked by methylation at histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9me). Despites the conservation and importance in the genome integrity, mechanisms to exclude H3K9m from active genes remained largely unexplored. Here we show in Arabidopsis that the exclusion depends on a histone demethylase gene, IBM1 (increase in BONSAI methylation); loss-of-function ibm1 mutation caused ectopic H3K9me in thousands of genes, which accompanies genic DNA methylation at non-CG sites. The ibm1-induced genic H3K9me depended on both histone methylase KYP/SUVH4 and DNA methylase CMT3, suggesting interdependence of two epigenetic marks – H3K9me and non-CG methylation. Notably, IBM1 enhanced loss of H3K9m in transcriptionally de-repressed sequences. Furthermore, disruption of transcription in genes induced ectopic non-CG methylation, mimicking the loss of IBM1 function. We propose that active chromatin is stabilized by the autocatalytic loop of transcription and H3K9 demethylation. This process counteracts accumulation of silent epigenetic marks, H3K9me and non-CG methylation, which is also autocatalytic. Leaves of 4-week-old plants were fixed as described previously (Saze et al, 2008). Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed as described previously (Kimura et al, 2008), using antibody against H3K9me2 (CMA307, Kimura et al, 2008, PMID: 18227620). Non-immunoprecipitated DNA (input DNA) and ChIP samples were amplified, labeled, and hybridized to microarray according to the manufacturer’s instruction (Protocols for Chromatin Immunoprecipitation and Amplification, NimbleGen). Input DNA and ChIP DNA were differentially labeled with Cy3 and Cy5, respectively, and competitively hybridized to a microarray chip. We used NimbleGen 2.1M HD2 array covering entire genome of A. thaliana.

Reconstructing de novo silencing of an active plant retrotransposon: dynamics, mechanisms, biological implications

Project description:In plants, maintenance-methylation mediated by METHYLTRANSFERASE-1 (MET1), siRNA-directed de-novo methylation, and chromatin remodeling by DECREASE IN DNA METHYLATION -1 (DDM1) promote transcriptional gene-silencing of transposable elements (TEs). This process is mostly investigated at steady states reflecting how long-established silent conditions are maintained, faithfully re-iterated or temporarily modified during growth, stress and over generations. How invasive TEs are detected and silenced de novo, however, remains largely unknown. Using inbred lineages of hybrid Arabidopsis epigenomes combining wild-type and met1 or ddm1 chromosomes, we have deciphered the timing, spatial distribution and mechanisms underpinning the proliferation and eventual demise of the endogenous retrotransposon évadé (EVD). Both developmental and molecular features of EVD biology, including a remarkable ability to evade RNA interference, ultimately contribute to its silencing over multiple generations. The underlying processes are accompanied by widespread diversification of the Arabidopsis genome and de-novo epiallelism creating an extensive reservoir of selectable and potentially adaptive traits. Differential expression of EVADE small RNAs between three generations of one specific Col0 met1 derived EpiRIL.

Gene expression in response to genetic and chemical perturbations of chromatin structure

Project description:Microarray expression profiling was used to identify genes expressed misexpressed in wild-type Arabidopsis seedlings treated with 5-aza-2’ deoxyctidine (5AC) or trichostatin A (TSA), and in decrease in dna methylation1 (ddm1) mutant seedlings. 10 day-old Arabidopsis seedlings (ecotype Ws) were grown in 0.5X MS media (containing 1% sucrose) at 21 C in continuous white light. Media (including 5AC and TSA) were refreshed after 5 days of growth. RNA was extracted using the Qiagen Plant RNeasy kit. Three biological replicates for each treatment and genotype were used.

Rate, spectrum, and evolutionary dynamics of spontaneous epimutations

Project description:Stochastic changes in cytosine methylation are a source of heritable epigenetic and phenotypic diversity in plants. Using the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, we derive robust estimates of the rate at which methylation is spontaneously gained (forward epimutation) or lost (backward epimutation) at individual cytosines and construct a comprehensive picture of the epimutation landscape in this species. We demonstrate that the dynamic interplay between forward and backward epimutations is modulated by genomic context and show that subtle contextual differences have profoundly shaped patterns of methylation diversity in A. thaliana natural populations over evolutionary timescales. Theoretical arguments indicate that the epimutation rates reported here are high enough to rapidly uncouple genetic from epigenetic variation, but low enough for new epialleles to sustain long-term selection responses. Our results provide new insights into methylome evolution and its population-level consequences. MethylC-seq of Arabidopsis thaliana

Local and global crosstalk among heterochromatin marks drives epigenome patterning in Arabidopsis

Project description:Transposable elements (TEs) are robustly silenced by multiple epigenetic marks, but dynamics of crosstalk among these marks remains enigmatic. In Arabidopsis, TEs are silenced by cytosine methylation in both CpG and non-CpG contexts (mCG and mCH) and histone H3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me). While mCH and H3K9me are mutually dependent for their maintenance, mCG and mCH/H3K9me are independently maintained. Here we show that establishment, rather than maintenance, of mCH depends on mCG, accounting for the synergistic colocalization of these silent marks in TEs. When mCG is lost, establishment of mCH is abolished in TEs. mCG also guides mCH in active genes, although the resulting mCH/H3K9me is removed thereafter. Unexpectedly, targeting efficiency of mCH depends on relative, rather than absolute, levels of mCG within the genome, suggesting underlying global negative controls. We propose that local positive feedback in heterochromatin dynamics, together with global negative feedback, drive robust and balanced DNA methylome patterning.

High-throughput pyrosequencing of endogenous small RNAs from Arabidopsis thaliana wild-type and ddm1 mutant.

Project description:DNA methylation is essential for silencing transposable elements and some genes in higher eukaryotes, implying that this modification must be tightly controlled. However, accidental changes in DNA methylation can be transmitted through mitosis, as in cancer, or meiosis, leading to epiallelic variation. Here, we demonstrate the existence of an efficient and faithful mechanism that protects against transgenerational loss of DNA methylation in the plant Arabidopsis. This process is specific to the subset of heavily methylated genomic repeats that are targeted by the RNAi machinery, and does not spread into flanking regions. Remethylation is often progressive over two to four sexual generations. This differential and incremental correction of epigenetic defects may preserve genome stability while increasing adaptive opportunities. 2 samples examined: wild type, and ddm1 mutant.
