Enrichment of H3K9me2 on unsynapsed chromatin in C. elegans does not target de novo sites [ChIP-Seq]


ABSTRACT: Characterization of the H3K9me2 distribution in the C. elegans adult hermaphrodite genome using ChIP-Seq Examination of H3K9me2 in two different nematode strains: fer-1 control and fer-1;him-8 mutant, where the X chromosomes are unsynapsed. The fer-1 mutation prevents production of embryos.

Many organisms alter the chromatin state of unsynapsed chromosomes during meiotic prophase, a phenomenon hypothesized to function in maintaining germline integrity. In Caenorhabditis elegans, histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) is detected by immunolabeling as enriched on unsynapsed meiotic chromosomes. Loss of the SET domain protein, MET-2, greatly reduces H3K9me2 abundance and results in germline mortality. Here, we used him-8 mutations to disable X chromosome synapsis and performed a  ...[more]
