Broad H3K4me3 domains support oocyte genome silencing and maturation but are dispensable for repression in early embryos

ABSTRACT: To investigate whether demethylation of broad histone H3 lysine 4 trimethyl (H3K4me3) domains is sufficient to trigger premature embryonic genome activation (EGA), we overexpressed the H3K4me3 demethylase KDM5B in mouse zygotes and early 2-cell (2C) embryos via mRNA injection. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) using the SMART-Seq Stranded Kit (Takara Bio) on individual Kdm5b-yfp–injected and water-injected control zygotes and 2C embryos. Differential expression analysis revealed minimal transcriptional changes, and developmental stage, rather than KDM5B overexpression, accounted for most gene expression variance. Our findings demonstrate that wide-scale removal of H3K4me3 in zygotes or early 2C embryos is not sufficient to induce premature EGA, suggesting that genome silencing at these stages does not depend on broad H3K4me3 domains.

Genome-wide mapping of the histone modification H3K4me3 in bovine early embryos [RNA-seq]

Project description:Reprogramming of histone modification regulates gene expression and mammal preimplantation development. Trimethylation of lysine 4 on histone 3 (H3K4me3) has unique landscape in mouse oocytes and early embryos. However, the dynamics and function of H3K4me3 in livestock embryos remain unclear. To address how it is reprogrammed in domestic animals, we profiled changes of H3K4me3 during bovine early embryo development. Notably, the overall signal of H3K4me3 decreased during embryonic genome activation (EGA). By utilizing ultra-low-input native ChIP-seq (ULI-NChIP-seq) technology, we observed widespread broad H3K4me3 domains in oocytes and embryos. The signal of broad H3K4me3 began to decrease after fertilization and was lowest after EGA. Along with the removal of broad H3K4me3, deposition of H3K4me3 at promoter regions enhanced gradually. Besides, the transcriptional activity and signal of promoter H3K4me3 showed positive correlation after the erasure of broad H3K4me3 at 16-cell stage. Moreover, knocking down of demethylases KDM5A, KDM5B and KDM5C caused EGA delay and blastocyst formation failure. RNA-seq analysis revealed 47.8% down-regulated genes in knockdown embryos at 8/16-cell stage were EGA genes, and 63.1% of up-regulated genes were maternal transcripts. Particularly, the positive correlation between transcriptional activity and promoter H3K4me3 during EGA was restrained when knocking down of KDM5A, KDM5B and KDM5C. Overall, our work initiatively mapped the genomic reprogramming of H3K4me3 during bovine preimplantation development, and KDM5A/B/C played roles in modulating oocyte-to-embryonic transition (OET) through timely erasure of broad H3K4me3 domains far away from promoters.

Unique Patterns of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 in 2-Cell-like Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs)

Project description:A small subgroup of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) exhibit molecular features similar to those of 2-cell (2C) embryos. These so-called 2C-like cells display highly relaxed chromatin architecture and expanded developmental potential. However, it remains elusive whether 2C-like cells and 2-cell embryos share similar epigenetic features. Here, we map the genome-wide profiles of histone H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 in 2C-like cells. We integrated transcriptome and epigenome data to conduct a detailed comparison of 2-cell embryos and 2C-like cells. We found that the majority of genes in 2C-like cells inherit their histone status from ESCs. Among the genes showing a switch in their histone methylation status during 2C-like transitions, only a small number acquire a 2-cell-embryo epigenetic signatures. In contrast, broad H3K4me3 domains display extensive loss in 2C-like cells. Most of differentially expressed genes display decreased H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 levels in 2C-like cells whereas de novo H3K4me3 deposition is closely linked with the expression levels of upregulated 2C-embryo-specific genes. Taken together, our study reveals the unique epigenetic profiles of 2C-like cells, facilitating the further exploration of totipotency in the future.

key histone modifications in porcine oocytes and early embryos

Project description:Conservation and species specificity are both unveiled in the reprogramming process of epigenetic modifications in early embryos. Pig is important agricultural livestock that closely related to human life and understanding the mechanisms of epigenetic reprogramming in porcine embryos could be assistive to the pig breeding industry and also informative to human embryo research. Nevertheless, current knowledge of epigenetic reprogramming in porcine embryos is elusive. We profile H3K4me3, H3K27me3, and H3K27ac modifications in porcine oocytes and preimplant embryos. Our data reveal the existence of unusual broad H3K4me3 domains not only in oocytes but also expanded in pre-ZGA embryos and demonstrates the extensive transitions of unusual broad H3K4me3 domains and their roles during embryogenesis. Notably, broad H3K27me3 and H3K27ac enriched domains are found to be preferably colocalized in these broad H3K4me3 domains when comparing to it in mice and human. By knocking down KDM5B in pig embryos, cleavage and developments were disrupted as demonstrated in mouse.

Allelic reprogramming of the histone modification H3K4me3 in early mammalian development

Project description:Histone modifications are considered as fundamental epigenetic regulators that control many crucial cellular processes 1. However, whether these marks can be passed on from gametes to the next generation in mammals is a long-standing question that remains unclear. By developing a highly sensitive approach, STAR ChIP-seq, we provided a panoramic view of the landscape of H3K4me3, a histone hallmark for transcription initiation 2, from developing gametes to postimplantation embryos. Interestingly, we found that upon fertilization, extensive reprogramming occurred on the paternal genome, as few H3K4me3 peaks were observed in zygotes before they reappeared after major zygotic genome activation at the late 2-cell stage. On the maternal genome, we unexpectedly found a non-canonical form of H3K4me3 (ncH3K4me3) in full-grown and mature oocytes, which exists as broad peaks at promoters and a large number of distal loci. Such broad H3K4me3 peaks are in striking contrast to typical sharp H3K4me3 peaks restricted in CpG rich regions of promoters. Interestingly, ncH3K4me3 in oocytes overlaps almost exclusively with partially methylated DNA domains (PMDs). It is then inherited in preimplantation embryos before being erased in the late 2-cell embryos, when canonical H3K4me3 starts to be established. The removal of ncH3K4me3 requires zygotic transcription but is independent of DNA replication mediated passive dilution. Finally, downregulation of H3K4me3 in full-grown oocytes by overexpressing an H3K4me3 demethylase KDM5B is associated with defects in genome silencing. Taken together, these data unveiled inheritance and highly dynamic reprogramming of the epigenome in early mammalian development.

DUX4 is a multifunctional factor priming human embryonic genome activation

Project description:Double homeobox 4 (DUX4) is expressed in at the early preimplantation stage in human embryos. Here we show that induced human DUX4 expression substantially alters the non-coding chromatin accessibility of non-coding DNA and activates thousands of newly identified putative transcribed enhancer-like regions, preferentially located within ERVL-MaLR repeat elements. CRISPR activation of transcribed enhancers by C-terminal DUX4 motifs results in the increased expression of target embryonic genome activation (EGA) genes ZSCAN4 and KHDC1P1. We show that DUX4 is markedly enriched in human zygotes, followed by intense nuclear DUX4 localization preceding and coinciding with minor EGA. DUX4 knockdown in human zygotes led to changes in the EGA transcriptome but did not terminate the embryos. We also show that the DUX4 protein interacts with the Mediator complex via the C-terminal KIX binding motif. Our findings contribute to the understanding of DUX4 as a regulator of the non-coding genome.

Identification of somatic memory genes during bovine nuclear reprogramming by transcriptome sequencing

Project description:We hypothesized aberrant transcriptional silence was existed in bovine clone reprogramming as well as abnormal transcriptional activation and the result of RNA-seq confirmed this hypothesis. On the one hand, SCNT (somatic cell nuclear transfer) embryos exhibited excessive RNA processing and translation while these two biological processes were deficient in human and mouse; on the other hand, SCNT embryos exhibited the transcriptional defects of reproduction-related genes. These results proved the existences of active- and silent-memory genes which inherited from donor cells in bovine early SCNT embryos. Then, H3K4me3-specific demethylase 5B (KDM5B) mRNAs were injected into cloned embryos to erase active or silent memory respectively. KDM5B overexpression not only reduced the transcription level of active-memory genes but also promoted the expression of silent-memory genes, especially rescued multiple development-related genes.

H3K4 demethylase KDM5B regulates epigenetic plasticity and cancer cell identity [RNA-seq]

Project description:The H3K4 demethylase KDM5B is overexpressed in multiple cancer types, but the underlying mechanistic contribution of dysregulated H3K4 demethylation in cancer is poorly understood. Here, we show that depletion of KDM5B in multiple types of cancer cells leads to increased proliferation, decreased heterogeneity, and phenotype changes consistent with a de-differentiated or stem cell-like phenotype. Our results also support a role for KDM5B in regulating epigenetic plasticity, where loss of KDM5B in cancer cell lines with elevated KDM5B expression leads to permissive or repressive chromatin states, which facilitate activation or repression of alternative transcriptional programs. KDM5B depleted cancer cells exhibited altered epigenetic and transcriptional profiles resembling a more primitive cellular state. Genome-wide maps of H3K4me3 across a compendium of KDM5B-depleted cancer cell lines revealed altered distributions of canonical and broad H3K4me3 domains at promoters of tumor suppressors. Genes with altered H3K4me3 in KDM5B-depleted cancer cells were enriched with tumor suppressors and housekeeping genes. While high expression of KDM5B is associated with poor clinical outcomes, findings from this study suggest that targeted inhibition of KDM5B as a therapeutic strategy may not be sufficient to inhibit growth of cancer cells as KDM5B regulates H3K4 methylation at a wide range of genes, but does so in a context-dependent manner. This study also provides a resource for evaluating associations between alterations in epigenetic patterning of H3K4 methylation and transcriptome profiles in a diverse set of cancer cells.
