Systematic Discovery and Characterization of Chromatin States and Butyrate-induced Variations for Cattle Genome Functional Annotation [dataset 6]

ABSTRACT: In this study, we generated genome-wide data sets for four histone modifications, including H3K9ac, H3K27ac, RNA pol II, H3K9me3,, which were collected from rumen tissues before and after Butyrate treatment. By combining other types of data sets collected in Rumen Epithelial Primary Cells (REPC) , inclduing four histone codes, CTCF, DNA accessibility, DNA methylation, and RNA-seq, we established and validated the first global map of regulatory elements (15 chromatin states) and defined their coordinated activities in cattle. We, for the first time, were able to establish the correlation among nutritional elements, chromatin states, gene activities, and phenotypic outcomes.

Project description:AIMS: To explore and validate the utility of rumen endoscopy for collection of rumen papillae for gene expression measurement. METHODS: Four adult Coopworth ewes were fasted for either 4 or 24 hours. Animals were sedated, placed in a dorsally recumbent position at 45 degrees with the head upright, and an endoscope inserted via a tube inserted into the mouth. Biopsies of rumen papillae were taken from the ventral surface of the rumen atrium under visual guidance. Two biopsies were collected from one of the animals that had been fasted for 4 hours, and three from one of the animals that had been fasted for 24 hours. Video of the rumen atrium and reticulum was also collected. The animals recovered uneventfully. Biopsies were subsequently used for extraction and sequencing of mRNA. RESULTS: The ventral surface of the rumen atrium was accessible after 4 hours off pasture, but a larger region was accessible after 24 hours of fasting. Sedation allowed access for endoscope use for around 5 to 10 minutes after which increased saliva flow was noted. Rumen papillae biopsies were easily collected, with samples from a variety of sites collected in the ∼10 minute time window. High quality RNA was obtained for stranded mRNA sequencing. Of the resulting reads, 69–70% mapped uniquely to version 3.1 of the ovine genome, and 48–49% to a known gene. The rumen mRNA profiles were consistent with a previously reported study. CONCLUSIONS: This method for obtaining rumenal tissue was found to be rapid and resulted in no apparent short or long term effects on the animal. High quality RNA was successfully extracted and amplified from the rumen papillae biopsies, indicating that this technique could be used for future gene expression studies. The use of rumen endoscopy could be extended to collection of a variety of rumen and reticulum anatomical measurements and deposition and retrieval of small sensors from the rumen. Rumen endoscopy offers an attractive and cost effective approach to repeated rumen biopsies compared with serial slaughter or use of cannulated animals.

Project description:Hong2004 - Genome-scale metabolic network of Mannheimia succiniciproducens (iSH335) This model is described in the article: The genome sequence of the capnophilic rumen bacterium Mannheimia succiniciproducens. Hong SH, Kim JS, Lee SY, In YH, Choi SS, Rih JK, Kim CH, Jeong H, Hur CG, Kim JJ. Nat. Biotechnol. 2004 Oct; 22(10): 1275-1281 Abstract: The rumen represents the first section of a ruminant animal's stomach, where feed is collected and mixed with microorganisms for initial digestion. The major gas produced in the rumen is CO(2) (65.5 mol%), yet the metabolic characteristics of capnophilic (CO(2)-loving) microorganisms are not well understood. Here we report the 2,314,078 base pair genome sequence of Mannheimia succiniciproducens MBEL55E, a recently isolated capnophilic Gram-negative bacterium from bovine rumen, and analyze its genome contents and metabolic characteristics. The metabolism of M. succiniciproducens was found to be well adapted to the oxygen-free rumen by using fumarate as a major electron acceptor. Genome-scale metabolic flux analysis indicated that CO(2) is important for the carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate to oxaloacetate, which is converted to succinic acid by the reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle and menaquinone systems. This characteristic metabolism allows highly efficient production of succinic acid, an important four-carbon industrial chemical.
