Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b-mediated decommissioning of fetal enhancers linked to kidney disease

ABSTRACT: Cytosine methylation is an epigenetic mark that dictates cell fate and response to stimuli. The timing and establishment of methylation logic during kidney development remains unknown. DNA methyltransferase 3a and 3b are the enzymes capable of establishing de novo methylation. We generated mice with genetic deletion of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b in nephron progenitor cells (Six2Cre Dnmt3a/3b) and kidney tubule cells (KspCre Dnmt3a/3b). We characterized KspCre Dnmt3a/3b mice at baseline and after injury. Unbiased omics profiling, such as whole genome bisulfite sequencing, reduced representation bisulfite sequencing and RNA sequencing were performed on whole-kidney samples and isolated renal tubule cells. KspCre Dnmt3a/3b mice showed no obvious morphologic and functional alterations at baseline. Knockout animals exhibited increased resistance to cisplatin-induced kidney injury, but not to folic acid–induced fibrosis. Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing indicated that Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b play an important role in methylation of gene regulatory regions that act as fetal-specific enhancers in the developing kidney but are decommissioned in the mature kidney. Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b resulted in failure to silence developmental genes. We also found that fetal-enhancer regions methylated by Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b were enriched for kidney disease genetic risk loci. Methylation patterns of kidneys from patients with CKD showed defects similar to those in mice with Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b deletion. Our results indicate a potential locus-specific convergence of genetic, epigenetic, and developmental elements in kidney disease development.

Reduced representative bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) analysis for a genome-wide comparison of DNA methylation in wild-type, USP7-KO-1, DNMT3A/3B-DKO and DNMT3A/DNMT3B/USP7-TKO HeLa cell lines.

Project description:To better characterize the effects of USP7 on DNA methylation, we performed reduced representative bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) analysis for a genome-wide comparison of DNA methylation in wild-type, USP7-KO-1, DNMT3A/3B-DKO and DNMT3A/DNMT3B/USP7-TKO HeLa cell lines. RRBS analysis showed increased DNA methylation in USK7-KO cells and loss of USP7 elevates DNA methylation on pre-existing sites and de novo methylation.

Genomic profiling of DNA methyltransferases reveals a role for DNMT3B in genic methylation

Project description:DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification associated with transcriptional repression of promoters and is essential for mammalian development. Establishment of DNA methylation is mediated by the de novo DNA methyltransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B, whereas DNMT1 ensures maintenance of methylation through replication. Absence of these enzymes is lethal, and somatic mutations in these genes have been associated with several human diseases. How genomic DNA methylation patterns are regulated remains poorly understood, as the mechanisms that guide recruitment and activity of DNMTs in vivo are largely unknown. To gain insights into this matter we determined chromosomal binding and site-specific activity of the mammalian de novo DNA methyltransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B. We show that both enzymes localize to methylated, CpG dense regions in mouse stem cells, yet are excluded from active promoters and enhancers. By specifically measuring sites of de novo methylation, we observe that enzymatic activity reflects chromosomal binding. De novo methylation increases with CpG density, yet is excluded from nucleosomes. Notably, we observed selective binding of DNMT3B to the bodies of transcribed genes, which leads to their preferential methylation. This targeting to transcribed sequences requires SETD2-mediated methylation of lysine 36 on histone H3 and a functional PWWP domain of DNMT3B. Together these findings reveal how sequence and chromatin cues guide de novo methyltransferase activity to ensure methylome integrity.

Targeted disruption of DNMT1, 3A and 3B in human embryonic stem cells [DNMT3A/3B DKO]

Project description:DNA methylation is a key epigenetic modification involved in regulating gene expression and maintaining genomic integrity. Somatic patterns of DNA methylation are largely static, apart from focal dynamics at gene regulatory elements. To further advance our understanding of the role of DNA methylation in human development and disease, we inactivated all three catalytically active DNA methyltransferases in human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) using CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. Disruption of DNMT3A or DNMT3B individually, as well as of both enzymes in tandem, creates viable, pluripotent cell lines with distinct effects on their DNA methylation landscape as assessed by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing. Surprisingly, in contrast to mouse, deletion of DNMT1 resulted in rapid cell death in human ESCs. To overcome the immediate lethality, we generated a doxycycline (DOX) responsive tTA-DNMT1* rescue line and readily obtained homozygous DNMT1 mutant lines. However, DOX-mediated repression of the exogenous DNMT1* initiates rapid, global loss of DNA methylation, followed by extensive cell death, demonstrating that DNA methylation is essential for human ESCs cultured in standard conditions. In summary, our data provide a comprehensive characterization of DNMT mutant ESCs, including single base genome-wide maps of their targets. RRBS methylation profiling of DNMT3A/3B DKO human ES cells

DNA methylation regulates nephron progenitor cell renewal and differentiation

Project description:Nephron number is a major determinant of long-term renal function. We hypothesized a link between epigenetic regulation and nephron formation. In support of this hypothesis, expression analysis evidenced high levels of DNA methyltransferases Dnmt1 and Dnmt3a in the nephrogenic zone of the developing mouse kidney. Using targeted loss-of-function manipulations in mice, we show that deletion of Dnmt1 in nephron progenitor cells results in a marked hypoplasia and reduction of nephron number at birth. In contrast, deletion of Dnmt3a/3b in nephron progenitor cells or deletion of Dnmt1/3a/3b in differentiated renal cells did not lead to any overt kidney phenotype. Whole mount optical projection tomography and 3D-reconstructions uncovered a significant reduction of stem cell niches and progenitor cells in Dnmt1-deficient mice. Ultimately, RNA sequencing analysis revealed that Dnmt1 controls DNA transcription regulating progenitor renewal, identity and differentiation. In summary, this study establishes DNA methylation as key regulatory event of prenatal renal programming.

Dnmt2-dependent methylomes lack biologically relevant DNA methylation patterns

Project description:Several organisms belonging to diverse animal groups have retained Dnmt2 as their only bona fide DNA methyltransferase gene. However, recent studies have shown that Dnmt2 functions as a tRNA methyltransferase, which prompted us to analyze the methylomes of Dnmt2-only organisms at single-base resolution. Using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing we show here that the genomes of Schistosoma mansoni and Drosophila melanogaster lack detectable DNA methylation patterns. Residual unconverted cytosine residues shared many attributes with bisulfite deamination artifacts and were observed at comparable levels in a Dnmt2-deficient fly strain. Furthermore, genetically modified mouse embryonic stem cells that had retained Dnmt2 as their only bona fide DNA methyltransferase gene, did not show any detectable DNA methylation patterns. Our results thus uncover fundamental differences among animal methylomes and suggest that Dnmt2-only organisms lack biologically relevant DNA methylation patterns.

DNA methylation analysis and expression profiling during murine embryogenesis and in embryos deficient for DNMT3A or DNMT3B

Project description:We quantified the targets and kinetics of DNA methylation acquisition in mouse embryos, and determined the contribution of the de novo methyltransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B to this process. We provide single-base maps of cytosine methylation by RRBS from the blastocysts to post-implantation stages and in embryos lacking DNMT3A or DNMT3B activity, and performed RNA-Seq in embryos lacking DNMT3B activity. We sequenced RRBS libraries prepared from genomic DNA isolated from embryos at consecutive stages of development between E3.5 and E11.5,and adult differentiated cells (sperm, liver). We performed RRBS on blastocysts at E3.5/E4.5, dissected epiblasts at E5.5/E6.5/E7/5, whole embryos at E8.5/E10.5 and limbs at E11.5. RRBS experiments in Dnmt3a-/- and Dnmt3b-/- embryos were performed in biological duplicates on individual embryos. We sequenced RNA-Seq libraries prepared from total RNAs of three WT and Dnmt3b-/- littermate embryos collected at E8.5.
