Project description:DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) and DNA methyltransferase 3-Like (DNMT3L) form functional heterotetramers and ATRX-DNMT3-DNMT3L (ADD) domains, shared by both DNMT3A and DNMT3L, recognizes histone H3 tail unmethylated at lysine-4 (H3K4me0) to deposit DNA methylation properly in mammalian germ cells. However, the combinational and differential role of ADD domains of DNMT3A and DNMT3L in vivo has not been fully defined. Here we analyze both female and male germ cells derived from mouse with amino-acid substitutions in ADD domains of DNMT3A and/or DNMT3L that impair their domain function. Loss of either DNMT3A-ADD or DNMT3L-ADD domain function shows moderate reduction of global CG methylation level, but in different degree, in both germ cells. However, when both DNMT3A and DNMT3L lost their ADD domain functions, reduction of the global CG methylation level is much more severe and comparable with that of Dnmt3a/3L knockout germ cells. In contrast, such double mutant germ cells have thousands of genomic regions where non-CG methylation is aberrantly accumulated. These results highlight a critical role of the combinational function of ADD domains for the robust CG and non-CG methylation in germ cells.

Project description:The de novo DNA methyltransferase 3-like (Dnmt3L) is a catalytically inactive DNA methylase that has been previously shown to cooperate with Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b to methylate DNA. Dnmt3L is highly expressed in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) but its function in these cells is unknown. We here report that Dnmt3L is required for the differentiation of ESC into primordial germ cells (PGC) through activation of the homeotic gene Rhox5. By genome-wide analysis we found that Dnmt3L is a positive regulator of methylation at gene bodies of housekeeping genes and a negative regulator of methylation at promoters of bivalent genes. We demonstrate that Dnmt3L interacts with the Polycomb PRC2 complex in competition with the DNA methyl transferases Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b to maintain low the methylation level at H3H27me3 regions. Thus in ESC, Dnmt3L counteracts the activity of de novo DNA methylases to keep low the level of DNA methylation at developmental gene promoters.

Project description:Comparison of gene expression differences between Dnmt3L heterozygous and wildtype pachytene spermatocytes, and similarly between Dnmt3L heterozygous and wildtype round spermatids which were isolated from the Dnmt3L knockout mouse line. This array was conducted to address the hypothesis that Dnmt3L heterozygosity results in deregulated gene expression within spermatocytes and spermatids. Results show that Dnmt3L heterozygosity causes numerous genes to be differentially regulated on a genome-wide level, showing that DNMT3L has an important role in regulating gene expression within these male germ cells.

Three preparations each of Dnmt3L purified wildtype spermatocytes, wildtype spermatids, heterozygous spermatids, and two preparations of heterozygous spermatocytes were isolated for a total of 11 samples. Each preparation was made up of cells isolated from 10 mice.
