Project description:DNA methylation erasure is required for mammalian primordial germ cell reprogramming. TET enzymes iteratively oxidize 5-methylcytosine to generate 5-hyroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine, and 5-carboxycytosine to facilitate active genome demethylation. Whether these bases are required to promote replication-coupled dilution or activate base excision repair during germline reprogramming remains unresolved due to the lack of genetic models that decouple TET1 activities. Here, we generated two mouse lines expressing catalytically inactive TET1 (Tet1-HxD) and TET1 that stalls at 5hmC (Tet1-V). This experiment was done to conduct genome wide DNA methylation profiling of catalytically inactive Tet1HxD/HxD sperm, 5hmC stalling Tet1V/V sperm, KO Tet1-/- sperm, and WT sperm. Sperm samples were collected from adult males (>10 week).

Project description:DNA methylation erasure is required for mammalian primordial germ cell reprogramming. TET enzymes iteratively oxidize 5-methylcytosine to generate 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine, and 5-carboxycytosine to facilitate active genome demethylation. Whether these bases are required to promote relication coupled dilution or active base excision repair during germline reprogramming remains unresolved due to the lack of genetic models that decouple TET1 activities. Here, we generated two mouse lines expressing catalytically inactive TET1 (Tet1-HxD) and TET1 that stalls at 5hmC (Tet1-V). This experiment was done to conduct transcriptiomic analysis of embryonic day (E)14.5 female primordial germ cells (PGCs) of WT, Tet1-HxD, Tet1-V, and Tet1-KO mice.

Project description:Enzymatic erasure of DNA methylation in mammals involves iterative 5-methylcytosine (5mC) oxidation by the ten-eleven translocation (TET) family of DNA dioxygenase proteins. As the most abundant form of oxidized 5mC, the prevailing model considers 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) as a key nexus in active DNA demethylation that can either indirectly facilitate replication-dependent depletion of 5mC by inhibiting maintenance DNA methylation machinery (UHRF1/DNMT1), or directly be iteratively oxidized to 5-formylcytosine (5fC) and 5-carboxycytosine (5caC) and restored to cytosine (C) through thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG)-mediated 5fC/5caC excision repair. In proliferative somatic cells, to what extent TET-dependent removal of 5mC entails indirect DNA demethylation via 5hmC-induced replication-dependent dilution or direct iterative conversion of 5hmC to 5fC/5caC is unclear. Here we leverage a catalytic processivity stalling variant of human TET1 (TET1.var: T1662E) to decouple the stepwise generation of 5hmC from subsequent 5fC/5caC generation, excision and repair. By using a CRISPR/dCas9-based epigenome-editing platform, we demonstrate that 5fC/5caC excision repair (by wild-type TET1, TET1.wt), but not 5hmC generation alone (by TET1.var), is requisite for robust restoration of unmodified cytosines and reversal of somatic silencing of the methylation-sensitive, germline-specific RHOXF2B gene promoter. Furthermore, integrated whole-genome multi-modal epigenetic sequencing reveals that hemi-hydroxymethylated CpG dyads predominantly resist replication-dependent depletion of 5mC on the opposing strand in TET1.var-expressing cells. Notably, TET1.var-mediated 5hmC generation is sufficient to induce similar levels of differential gene expression (compared to TET1.wt) without inducing major changes in unmodified cytosine profiles across the genome. Our study suggests 5hmC alone plays a limited role in driving replication-dependent DNA demethylation in the presence of functional DNMT1/UHRF1 mechanisms, but can regulate gene expression as a bona fide epigenetic mark in proliferative somatic cells.

Project description:We report that full length TET1 (TET1-FL) overexpression fails to induce global DNA demethylation in HEK293T cells. The preferential binding of TET1-FL to hypomethylated CpG islands (CGIs) through its CXXC domain leads to its inhibited 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) production as methylation level increases. TET1-FL-induced 5hmC accumulates at CGI edges, while TET1 knockdown induces methylation spreading from methylated edges into hypomethylated CGIs. However, TET1 can regulate gene transcription independent of its dioxygenase catalytic function. Thus, our results identify TET1 as a maintenance DNA demethylase that does not purposely decrease methylation levels, but specifically maintains the DNA hypomethylation state of CGIs in adult cells.

Project description:Differentiation of CD4+T-cells into effector subsets is a critical component of the adaptive immune system and an incorrect response can lead to autoimmunity or immune deficiency. Cellular differentiation including T-cell differentiation is accompanied by large-scale epigenetic remodeling, including changes in DNA methylation at key regulators of T-cell differentiation. The TET family of enzymes were recently shown to be able to catalyse methylated cytosine (5mC) into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) enabling a pathway of active removal of DNA methylation. Here, we characterize 5hmC, 5mC and transcriptional dynamics during human CD4+T-cell polarisation in a time series approach and relate these changes to profiles in ex-vivo CD4+memory subsets. We observed large-scale remodelling during early CD4+T-cell differentiation which was predictive of subsequent changes during late time points, these changes were also related to disease associated regions which we show can act as functional regulatory elements. This dataset was designed to assess how TET1 affects gene expression during human CD4+T-cell differentiation. We observed that TET1 was highly expressed in primary lymphocytes compared to other human tissues and loss of TET1 gene expression was seen within 6 hours of naïve CD4+T-cell activation. Primary human naïve T-cells were transfected with different TET1 containing plasmids and polarized towards Th1 for 24h. When comparing cells transfected with full length TET1 to catalytically inactive TET1, we observed mis-expression of several cytokine/chemokine genes related to T-cell differentiation. This was not observed for cells expressing the catalytic domain of TET1. Note that the expression array only targets the DNA binding domain of the TET1 gene, therefore we validated ectopic expression of TET1 by qPCR targeting the catalytic domain. This submission contains data from Transcription profiling by array of primary human CD4+T-cells overexpressing TET1 polarized towards Th1.

Project description:Surveillance of DNA methylation in mammals is critical for genome stability and epigenetic regulation. The discovery of the ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins catalyzing the oxidation from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC) revolutionized the understanding of DNA methylation dynamics. Interestingly, in recent years evidence accumulated that TET1 also harbours non-catalytic functions. However, the role and mechanism of TET1 DNA demethylation independent functions still remain poorly understood. Here, we use genome engineering and quantitative multi-omics approaches to dissect the non-catalytic role of TET1. Strikingly, we find that the majority of transcriptional regulation depends on non-catalytic functions of TET1. To gain insights into possible mechanisms by which TET1 regulates transcription independent of DNA demethylation, we asked if the loss of TET1 is accompanied by changes in the histone modificaiton landscape. To this end, we compared the relative abundances of core histone modifications between Tet1 KO, Tet1 CM and WT mESCs using quantitative LC-MS/MS analysis. Surprisingly, we observed a profound global reduction of pH4Kac and H4K20me3 as well as H3K27me3 in Tet1 KO mESC. Vice versa, the monomethylation states of the latter two residues, H3K27me1 and H4K20me1 were significantly increased in Tet1 KO. Similar to the results from the transcriptome data, most of these changes were specific to Tet1 KO cells.

Project description:Precise regulation of DNA methylation in mammals is critical for genome stability and epigenetic regulation. The discovery of the ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins catalyzing the oxidation from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC) revolutionized the perspective on the complexity and regulation of DNA modifications. Despite accumulating knowledge about the role of TET1, it remains unclear to what extent these can be attributed to its catalytic activity. Here, we use genome engineering and quantitative multi-omics approaches to dissect the role and mechanism of TET1 in mESCs. Our study identifies TET1 as an essential interaction hub for multiple chromatin modifying complexes and as a global regulator of histone modifications. Strikingly, we find that the majority of transcriptional regulation depends on non-catalytic functions of TET1. Moreover, we show that the establishment of H3K9me3 and H4K20me3 at ERV1, ERVK, and ERVL is mediated by TET1 independent of DNA demethylation. We provide evidence that repression of endogenous retroviruses depends on the interaction between TET1 and SIN3A. In summary, we demonstrate that the non-catalytic functions of TET1 are critical for regulation of gene expression and the silencing of endogenous retroviruses in mESCs.
