BS-seq of Arabidopsis pol2a mutants, of related mutants combinations and of WT and pol2a plants treated with hydroxyurea

ABSTRACT: DNA replication requires the faithful propagation of both genetic and epigenetic information. There is evidence that DNA polymerases play a role in transcriptional silencing, but the extent of their contribution and how it relates to heterochromatin maintenance is unclear. Analyzing a new hypomorphic pol2a mutant allele, we find that POL2A, the catalytic subunit of the DNA polymerase epsilon, maintains heterochromatin silencing and nuclear organization. Here, we profiled the DNA methylation landscape using BS-seq in various pol2a mutant alleles in Arabidopsis, in combination or not with other silencing and methyltransferase mutants. We also generated methylomes of wild-type and pol2a mutants exposed to hydroxyurea, to explore the consequences of replicative stress onto DNA methylation maintenance.

RNA-seq of med14-3 and uvh6-3 mutants in heat stress (37°C) and control stress (23°C), with WT controls. RNA-seq of double mutants: med14-3 or uvh6-3 combined with either ddm1-2 or mom1-2 mutants. Bisulfite-seq of WT samples subjected to control or heat stress. Bisulfite-seq of med14-3 and WT samples in control stress.

Project description:Heterochromatin transcription is functionally important, for instance to establish heterochromatin silencing or condensation, but the factors allowing transcription in a repressive chromatin environment are little known. To gain insight in this process, we triggered heterochromatin transcription using heat stress or mutations for the silencing factors DDM1 or MOM1 and generated mRNA profiles of med14 and uvh6 mutants in these different contexts. We used rosette leaves incubated 24h in dH2O at 23°C for control stress and 37°C for heat stress. Our data and analysis suggest that UVH6/XPD/RAD3 is involved in a heat stress specific transcriptional process where it promotes transcription of most but not all genes. MED14 promotes transcription at a more reduced number of loci during heat stress, and preferentially targets heterochromatic loci. In addition, MED14 is required for heterochromatin transcription without heat stress, but this function is lost when heterochromatin properties are disrupted, suggesting it is specifically involved in transcription of heterochromatic sequences. In addition, bisulfite-seq of med14 mutants indicates that MED14 participates in RNA-directed DNA methylation, suggesting that MED14 is required both for heterochromatin transcription and formation.

MethlyC-Seq of wild type (with 35S-SUC2 transgene) and idm3-1, mbd7-1 mutants (same 35S-SUC2 background)

Project description:In eukaryotes, heterochromatin is characterized by numerous epigenetic marks, including DNA methylation. Spreading of these marks into nearby active genes must be avoided in order to maintain appropriate gene expression. Here, we uncover Arabidopsis Methyl-CpG-Binding Domain 7 (MBD7) and Increased DNA Methylation 3 (IDM3) as anti-silencing factors that prevent transgene repression and genome-wide DNA hypermethylation. MBD7 preferentially binds to highly methylated, CG-dense regions associated with non-CG methylation and physically associates with other anti-silencing factors, including the histone acetyltransferase IDM1, IDM2, and IDM3. IDM1 and IDM2 were previously shown to facilitate active DNA demethylation by the 5-methylcytosine DNA glycosylase/lyase ROS1. Thus, MBD7 tethers the IDM proteins to methylated DNA, which enables the function of DNA demethylases that in turn establish chromatin boundaries and limit DNA methylation Using MethylC-Seq to provide single-base resolution of DNA methylation status in WT and idm3-1, mbd7-1 mutants Whole genome methylation maps of mbd7-1, idm3-1 and WT (all three are from 35S-SUC transgene background) were generated using BS-seq

small RNA-seq of Arabidopsis pol2a mutants

Project description:DNA replication requires the faithful propagation of both genetic and epigenetic information. There is evidence that DNA polymerases play a role in transcriptional silencing, but the extent of their contribution and how it relates to heterochromatin maintenance is unclear. Analyzing a new hypomorphic pol2a mutant allele, we find that POL2A, the catalytic subunit of the DNA polymerase epsilon, maintains heterochromatin silencing and nuclear organization. We also found that POL2 inhibits DNA methylation and histone H3 lysine 9 methylation, which both correlate with 24-nucleotide small RNA accumulation. In this experiment, we sequenced small-RNA libraries generated from immature inflorescences of pol2a-10 and pol2a-12 mutants and wild-type plants.

mRNA-seq of Arabidopsis mutants : pol2a-12, cmt3-11, pol2a-12 cmt3-11, fas2-4, pol2a-12 atxr5/6

Project description:DNA replication requires the faithful propagation of both genetic and epigenetic information. There is evidence that DNA polymerases play a role in transcriptional silencing, but the extent of their contribution and how it relates to heterochromatin maintenance is unclear. To get a better understanding of the role of POL2A, the catalytic subunit of the DNA polymerase epsilon, into maintaining heterochromatin silencing, we performed mRNA-seq on Arabidopsis plants carrying a new hypomorphic pol2a mutation. We deepened our analysis by profiling transcriptomes of other silencing mutants or combinations of pol2a with other mutations.

ChIP-seq of histone marks (H3K27me1, H3K27me3, H3K9me2) and of the H2A.W histone variant in Arabidopsis pol2a mutants.

Project description:DNA replication requires the faithful propagation of both genetic and epigenetic information. There is evidence that DNA polymerases play a role in transcriptional silencing, but the extent of their contribution and how it relates to heterochromatin maintenance is unclear. Analyzing a new hypomorphic pol2a mutant allele, we find that POL2A, the catalytic subunit of the DNA polymerase epsilon, maintains heterochromatin silencing and nuclear organization. We also found that POL2A inhibits DNA methylation. Using ChIP-seq in wild-type and pol2a mutants, we analyzed how this related to changes in heterochromatic histone modifications (H3K27me1, H3K27me3, H3K9me2) and H2A.W heterochromatic histone variant.

Arabidopsis EDM2 Promotes IBM1 Distal Polyadenylation and Regulates Genome DNA Methylation Patterns [RNA-Seq]

Project description:A forward genetics screen led to the identification of the putative chromatin regulator EDM2 as a cellular anti-silencing factor and regulator of genome DNA methylation patterns. EDM2 contains a composite PHD finger domain that recognizes both active H3K4 and repressive H3K9 methylation marks at the intronic repeat elements in genes such as the histone H3K9 demethylase gene IBM1, and is necessary for maintaining the expression of these genes by promoting mRNA distal polyadenylation. Because of its role in maintaining IBM1 expression, EDM2 is required for preventing CHG methylation in the bodies of thousands of genes.Our results thus increase the understanding of anti-silencing, genome methylation patterns, and regulation of alternative RNA processing by intronic heterochromatin. Col-0 and edm2-4 total RNA are extracted from leaves and then polyA mRNAs are isolated for mRNA-seq.

Differential expression of miRNAs in response to topping in tobacco roots

Project description:Topping is an important cultivating measure for flue-cured tobacco, and many genes had been found to be differentially expressed in response to topping. But it is still unclear how these genes are regulated. MiRNAs play a critical role in post-transcriptional gene regulation, so we sequenced two sRNA libraries from tobacco roots before and after topping, with a view to exploring transcriptional differences in miRNAs.Two sRNA libraries were generated from tobacco roots before and after topping. Solexa high-throughput sequencing of tobacco small RNAs revealed a total of 12,104,207 and 11,292,018 reads representing 3,633,398 and 3,084,102 distinct sequences before and after topping. The expressions of 136 conserved miRNAs (belonging to 32 families) and 126 new miRNAs (belonging to 77 families) were determined. There were three major conserved miRNAs families (nta-miR156, nta-miR172 and nta-miR171) and two major new miRNAs families (nta-miRn2 and nta-miRn26). All of these identified miRNAs can be folded into characteristic miRNA stem-loop secondary hairpin structures, and qRT-PCR was adopted to validate and measure the expression of miRNAs. Putative targets were identified for 133 out of 136 conserved miRNAs and 126 new miRNAs. Of these miRNAs whose targets had been identified, the miRNAs which change markedly (>2 folds) belong to 53 families and their targets have different biological functions including development, response to stress, response to hormone, N metabolism, C metabolism, signal transduction, nucleic acid metabolism and other metabolism. Some interesting targets for miRNAs had been determined. 2 samples examined:roots before and after topping
