Project description:Numerous adult diseases involving tissues that consist primarily of non-dividing cells are associated with changes in DNA methylation. It suggests a role for de novo methylation or demethylation of DNA, which is catalyzed by DNA methyltransferase 3 (Dnmt3) and ten-eleven translocases (Tet). However, the contribution of DNA de novo (de)methylation to these diseases remains nearly completely unproven. Broad changes in DNA methylation occurred within days in the renal outer medulla of Dahl SS rats fed a high-salt diet, a classic model of hypertension. Intra-renal administration of anti-Dnmt3a/Tet3 GapmeR’s attenuated high salt-induced hypertension in SS rats. The high salt diet induced differential expression of 1,712 genes in the renal outer medulla. Remarkably, the differential expression of 76% of these genes were prevented by anti-Dnmt3a/Tet3 GapmeR’s. The genes differentially expressed in response to the GapmeR’s were involved in the regulation of metabolism and inflammation and were significantly enriched for genes showing differential methylation in response to the GapmeR’s. These data indicate DNA de novo (de)methylation in the kidney contributes to the development of hypertension in SS rats. The findings should help to shift the paradigm of DNA methylation research in diseases involving non-dividing cells from correlative analysis to functional and mechanistic studies.

Project description:DNA methylation is essential to mammalian development, and dysregulation can cause serious pathological conditions. Key enzymes responsible for deposition and removal of DNA methylation are known, but how they cooperate to regulate the methylation landscape remains a central question. Using a knockin DNA methylation reporter, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screen in human embryonic stem cells to discover DNA methylation regulators. The top screen hit was an uncharacterized gene, QSER1, which proved to be a key guardian of bivalent promoters and poised enhancers of developmental genes, especially those residing in DNA methylation valleys (or canyons). We further demonstrate genetic and biochemical interactions of QSER1 and TET1, supporting their cooperation to safeguard transcriptional and developmental programs from DNMT3-mediated de novo methylation.

Project description:DNA methylation by de novo DNA methyltransferases 3A (DNMT3A) and 3B (DNMT3B) is essential for genome regulation and development. Dysregulation of this process is implicated in various diseases, notably cancer. However, the mechanisms underlying DNMT3 substrate recognition and enzymatic specificity remain elusive. Here we report a 2.65-Å crystal structure of the DNMT3A-DNMT3L-DNA complex where two DNMT3A monomers simultaneously attack two CpG dinucleotides, with the target sites separated by fourteen base pairs within the same DNA duplex. The DNMT3A-DNA interaction involves a target recognition domain (TRD), a catalytic loop and DNMT3A homodimeric interface. A TRD residue Arg836 makes crucial contact with CpG, ensuring DNMT3A enzymatic preference towards CpG sites in cells. Hematological cancer-associated somatic mutations at the substrate-binding sites decrease DNMT3A activity, induce CpG hypomethylation and promote transformation of hematopoietic cells. Together, our study reveals the mechanistic basis for DNMT3A-mediated DNA methylation and establishes its etiologic link to human disease.
