DNA methylation and lncRNA expression control asynchronous DNA replication at specific imprinted gene domains [RNA-seq]


ABSTRACT: Besides genome-wide patterns of replication timing (RT), some genes display allelic replication asynchrony in stem cells, brought about by stochastic events and genetic polymorphisms. Whether epigenetic modifications control asynchronous replication remains unclear. We explored mammalian imprinted domains, where parental DNA methylation imprints mediate allele-specific gene expression. Our genome-wide and locus-specific assays in mono-parental and hybrid mouse ESCs reveal pronounced RT asynchrony—which is parent-of-origin dependent and lost upon neural differentiation—at the Dlk1-Dio3 and Snrpn domains, which both comprise lncRNA polycistrons. Generating a range of mutant lines, we find that asynchronous replication at Dlk1-Dio3 is mediated by differential DNA methylation, and that the lncRNA Meg3 controls early replication across parts of the domain on the maternal chromosome. RT thereby becomes unlinked from 3D chromatin architecture as assayed by Hi-C. The combined replication timing, DNA methylation, 3D chromatin structure and gene expression data highlight how parental methylation imprints and lncRNA expression control replication and can override RT domain organisation.
