Project description:One of the reproductive isolation mechanisms that restricts gene exchange and make speciation irreversible is sterility of inter(sub)specific hybrids. In the Prdm9-driven sterility of Mus m. musculus x Mus m. domesticus hybrids a Prdm9-interacting hybrid sterility gene was mapped in the X-linked Hstx2 locus. Here we show that the Mir465 microRNA gene cluster is the predicted Hstx2 hybrid sterility factor involved in Prdm9 interaction.

Project description:In this in-vitro study, we demonstrate the different effects of exosomes produced by melanoma cells on the functional properties of normal dermal fibroblasts and fibroblasts prepared from skin metastasis of CMM. Both normal and cancer-associated fibroblast were prepared by a)DMEM with 10% EDS (control); b) DMEM with 10% Exosome-depleted serum (EDS) + 10 microg/ml G-361 exosomes (EXO_G361); c) DMEM with 10% EDS + 10 microg/ml exosomes from FBS (EXO_FBS). The cells were cultured for 72 hours. Transcriptome analysis was performed 72 hours after exosome application. Total RNA was isolated using RNeasy Micro Kit (Qiagen).

Project description:In this study, we address the difference in adult fibroblasts developmentally originating from different germ layers. Closer, we focussed on HOX gene expression and the potential influence of physiological and pathological conditions in postnatal life. Here we specifically focused on fibroblasts from epileptogenic focus, glioblastoma, soft tissue between galea aponeurotica and periost, and metastases to the brain, at the scale of whole genome expression. Fibroblasts were prepared using the fibroblast-specific kit (Fibroblast MicroBeads, Miltenyi, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) according to the manufacturer´s instructions.

Project description:Vertebrate recombination concentrates in meiotic chromatin regions (hotspots) that are opened in some species by the DNA-sequence-specific-binding histone H3 trimethyltransferase PRDM9, while other species recombine in regions with already opened chromatin and other function. Inactivation of the mouse Prdm9 gene induces the shift of hotspots to functional regions, gross fertility reduction in males, and sterility in females. In contrast, the other vertebrate species lacking PRDM9 remain fertile. To resolve this discrepancy, we generated Prdm9 deletions in the Rattus norvegicus genome and generated the first rat genome-wide maps of recombination-initiating double-strand break hotspots. Rat strains carrying the same wild-type Prdm9 allele shared 88% hotspots but strains with different Prdm9 alleles only 3%. After Prdm9 deletion, rat hotspots relocated to functional regions, 40% to positions corresponding to Prdm9-independent mouse hotspots. Despite of hotspot relocation and of decreased fertility, Prdm9-deficient rats of the SHR/OlaIpcv strain produced apparently normal offspring. Rat PRDM9 thus makes recombination landscape unique, but it is unnecessary for recombination. This peculiarity is likely similar for human PRDM9 and may resolve the paradox between the apparently species-specific functions. PRDM9 is known to play a role in speciation, as it causes mouse hybrid sterility via meiotic asynapsis. Besides the expected mild meiotic arrest, we also detected apoptosis of postmeiotic spermatids, suggesting that PRDM9 has an additional role during spermatogenesis and perhaps also in speciation.

Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility. Gene expression was measured in whole testis from males aged 62-86 days. Samples include 190 first generation lab-bred male offspring of wild-caught mice from the Mus musculus musculus - M. m. domesticus hybrid zone.

Project description:PRDM9, a histone methyltransferase, initiates meiotic recombination by binding DNA at recombination hotspots and directing the position of DNA double-strand breaks (DSB). The DSB repair mechanism suggests that hotspots should eventually self-destruct, yet genome-wide recombination levels remain constant, a conundrum known as the hotspot paradox. To test if PRDM9 drives this evolutionary erosion, we compared activity of the Prdm9Cst allele in two Mus musculus subspecies, M.m. castaneus, in which Prdm9Cst arose, and M.m. domesticus, into which Prdm9Cst was introduced. Comparing these two strains, we find that haplotype differences at hotspots leads to qualitative and quantitative changes in PRDM9 binding and activity. Most variants affecting PRDM9Cst binding arose and were fixed in M.m castaneus, suppressing hotspot activity. Furthermore, M.m castaneus x M.m domesticus F1 hybrids exhibit novel hotspots, representing sites of historic evolutionary erosion. Together these data support a model where haplotype-specific PRDM9 binding directs biased gene conversion at hotspots, ultimately leading to hotspot erosion. Identify position of meiotic H3K4me3 from various sub-species of mice and F1 hybrids from crosses between subspecies. In addition, perform ChIP-seq analysis on the meiosis-specific methyltransferase PRDM9.

Project description:Meiotic recombination is required for the segregation of homologous chromosomes and is essential for fertility. The DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) that initiate meiotic recombination are directed by sequence-specific DNA binding of the PRDM9 protein. Gradual elimination of PRDM9 binding sites by gene conversion is thought to result in the hotspot erosion while mutations affecting DNA binding specificity of PRDM9 will create the new sets of hotspots. To better understand evolutionary turnover of recombination hotspots we mapped DSB hotspots in six inbred mouse strains representing all four major subspecies of Mus musculus and in their F1 hybrids. We found that hotspot erosion governs the preferential usage of some Prdm9 alleles over others in hybrid mice and increases sequence diversity specifically at hotspots that become active in the hybrids. As crossovers are disfavored at such hotspots, we propose that sequence divergence generated by hotspot turnover creates impediments for recombination in hybrids, potentially leading to reduction in fertility and eventually, speciation.

Project description:Male sterility is an important trait in hybrid crop breeding. Thermo-sensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) lines, which are male-sterile at restrictive (high) temperatures but convert to male-fertile at permissive (low) temperatures, have been widely utilized in two-line hybrid rice breeding3. However, the molecular mechanism underlying TGMS remains unclear. Here we show that the rice (Oryza sativa L.) thermo-sensitive genic male sterile gene 5 (tms5) locus, which in 2010 was present in cultivars occupying more than 70% (2.4 million hectares) of two-line hybrid rice-growing land in China, confers the TGMS trait through a loss-of-function mutation of RNase ZS1, resulting in failure to mediate mRNA decay of three temperature-responsive ubiquitin fusion ribosomal protein L40 genes (UbL40). TMS5 encodes an evolutionarily conserved endonuclease, RNase ZS1. RNase ZS1 can process tRNAs in vitro, but does not do so in vivo due to its localization in the cytoplasm. Defective RNase ZS1 in tms5 plants leads to over-accumulation of UbL401, UbL402 and UbL404 mRNAs at restrictive but not permissive temperatures. Furthermore, over-expression of UbL401 and UbL404 in wild-type plants causes male sterility, while knockdown of UbL401 and UbL404 in tms5 partially restores its fertility. Our results uncover a novel mechanism of RNase ZS1-mediated UbL40 mRNA decay which controls TGMS in rice and has potential applications in hybrid breeding not only of rice but also of other crops. Examination of differences in mRNA accumulation between 93-11, NIL5 and NIL8.
