Histone H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 form a chromatin platform essential for DNMT3A-dependent DNA methylation in mouse oocytes

ABSTRACT: Establishment of the DNA methylation landscape of mammalian oocytes, mediated by the DNMT3A-DNMT3L complex, is crucial for reproduction and development. In mouse oocytes, high levels of DNA methylation occur exclusively in the transcriptionally active regions, with moderate to low levels of methylation in other regions. Histone H3K36me3 mediates the high levels of methylation in the transcribed regions; however, it is unknown which histone mark guides the methylation in the other regions. Here, we show that, in mouse oocytes, H3K36me2 is highly enriched in the X chromosome and is broadly distributed across all autosomes. Upon H3K36me2 depletion, DNA methylation in moderately methylated regions is selectively affected, and a methylation pattern unique to the X chromosome is switched to an autosome-like pattern. Furthermore, we find that simultaneous depletion of H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 results in global hypomethylation, comparable to that of DNMT3A depletion. Therefore, the two histone marks jointly provide the chromatin platform essential for guiding DNMT3A-dependent DNA methylation in mouse oocytes.

H3K36me2 recruits DNMT3A and shapes intergenic DNA methylation landscapes

Project description:Enzymes catalyzing CpG methylation in DNA, including DNMT1 and DNMT3A/B, are indispensable for mammalian tissue development and homeostasis. They are also implicated in human developmental disorders and cancers, supporting a critical role of DNA methylation during cell fate specification and maintenance. Recent studies suggest that histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) are involved in specifying patterns of DNMT localization and DNA methylation at promoters and actively transcribed gene bodies. However, mechanisms governing the establishment and maintenance of intergenic DNA methylation remain poorly understood. Germline mutations in DNMT3A lead to a childhood overgrowth syndrome that is phenotypically overlapping with Sotos syndrome caused by haploinsufficiency of NSD1, a histone methyltransferase catalyzing di-methylation on H3K36 (H3K36me2), pointing to a potential mechanistic link between the two disorders. Here we report that NSD1-mediated H3K36me2 is required for recruitment of DNMT3A and maintenance of DNA methylation at intergenic regions. Genome-wide analysis shows binding and activity of DNMT3A are co-localized with H3K36me2 at non-coding regions of euchromatin. Genetic ablation of NSD1 and its paralogue NSD2 in mouse and human cells redistributes DNMT3A to H3K36me3-marked gene bodies and reduces intergenic DNA methylation. NSD1 mutant tumors and Sotos patient samples are also associated with intergenic DNA hypomethylation. Consistently, PWWP-domain of DNMT3A shows dual recognition of H3K36me2/3 in vitro with a higher binding affinity towards H3K36me2, which is abrogated by overgrowth syndrome-derived missense mutations. Taken together, our study uncovers a trans-chromatin regulatory pathway that, when perturbed, promotes neoplastic and developmental overgrowth.

NSD1-deposited H3K36me2 directs de novo methylation in the mouse male germline and counteracts Polycomb-associated silencing

Project description:While de novo DNA methylation (DNAme) in mammalian germ cells is dependent upon DNMT3A and DNMT3L, oocytes and spermatozoa show distinct patterns of DNAme. In mouse oocytes, de novo DNAme requires the lysine methyltransferase (KMTase) SETD2, which deposits H3K36me3. Surprisingly, we show here that SETD2 is dispensable for de novo DNAme in the male germline. Rather, the KMTase NSD1, which broadly deposits H3K36me2 in euchromatic regions, plays a critical role in de novo DNAme in prospermatogonia, including of imprinted genes. However, males deficient in germline NSD1 show a more severe defect in spermatogenesis than Dnmt3l-/- males. Furthermore, unlike DNMT3L, NSD1 safeguards a subset of genes against H3K27me3-associated transcriptional silencing. In contrast, H3K36me2 plays only a minor role in de novo DNAme during oogenesis and females with NSD1 deficient oocytes are fertile. Thus, the sexually dimorphic pattern of DNAme in mature mouse gametes is driven by distinct profiles of H3K36 methylation.

Gain of function DNMT3A mutations cause microcephalic dwarfism and hypermethylation of Polycomb-regulated regions (human fibroblast RNAseq)

Project description:DNA methylation and Polycomb are key factors in the establishment of vertebrate cellular identity and fate. Here we report de novo missense mutations in DNMT3A, encoding the DNA methyltransferase DNMT3A, that cause microcephalic dwarfism, a hypocellular disorder of extreme global growth failure. Substitutions in the PWWP domain abrogate binding to the histone modifications H3K36me2/3, and alter DNA methylation in patient cells. Polycomb-associated DNA methylation canyons/valleys, hypomethylated domains encompassing developmental genes, become methylated with concomitant depletion of H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 bivalent marks. Such de novo DNA methylation occurs during differentiation of Dnmt3aW326R pluripotent cells in vitro, and is also evident in Dnmt3aW326R/+ dwarf mice. We therefore propose that the interaction of the DNMT3A PWWP domain with H3K36me2/3 normally limits DNA methylation of polycomb-marked regions. Our findings implicate the interplay between DNA methylation and polycomb at key developmental regulators as a determinant of organism size in mammals.

DNMT3A Reads and Connects Histone H3K36me2 to DNA methylation [RNA-seq]

Project description:DNA methylation at the 5-position of cytosine (5mC) is a crucial epigenetic mark in regulating biological processes including gene silencing, gene imprinting, and X chromosome inactivation. It has long been questioned how de novo DNA 5mC patterns are established in different genomic regions and whether histone modifications crosstalk to the process. Here, we report a previously uncovered mechanism of histone mark H3K36me2 in recruiting and activating DNMT3A, primarily in the intergenic regions. Our biochemistry studies discovered that H3K36me2 could be specifically bound by DNMT3A PWWP domain and substantially stimulate DNMT3A activity, representing the first example of histone modification in activating DNMT3A activity. Using multiple myeloma model, KMS11, we further found that the genome-wide gain-of-H3K36me2 resulted in global increase of 5mC, primarily in the intergenic regions. Importantly, DNA inhibitor treatment specifically blocked KMS11 growth demonstrating the functional importance of this regulatory pathway.
