Parent-of-Origin Allelic Expression in the Mouse Cerebellum

ABSTRACT: The maternal and paternal genomes play different roles in mammalian brains as a result of genomic imprinting, an epigenetic regulation leading to differential expression of the parental alleles of some genes. Here we investigate genomic imprinting in the cerebellum using a newly developed Bayesian statistical model that provides unprecedented transcript-level resolution. We uncover 160 imprinted transcripts, including 41 novel and independently validated imprinted genes. Strikingly, many genes exhibit parentally biased -rather than monoallelic- expression, with different magnitudes according to age, organ, and brain region. Developmental changes in parental bias and overall gene expression are strongly correlated, suggesting combined roles in regulating gene dosage. These findings reveal the remarkable complexity of genomic imprinting, with important implications for understanding the normal and diseased brain.

Genome-wide parent-of-origin DNA methylation analysis [Methyl-seq]

Project description:Genomic imprinting is a form of epigenetic regulation that results in expression of either the maternally or paternally inherited allele of a subset of genes. Imprinted loci contain differentially methylated regions (DMRs) where cytosine methylation marks one of the parental alleles, providing cis-acting regulatory elements that influence the allelic expression of surrounding genes, however to date the total number of imprinted loci within the human genome is unknown. To characterize known imprinted DMRS and identify novel imprinted loci we have performed whole-genome bisulphite sequencing and high-resolution DNA methylation array analysis of healthy tissues. Sequencing of bisulfite converted DNA analysis of normal brain (white matter), liver and term placenta tissue

Natural epigenetic polymorphisms lead to intraspecific variation in Arabidopsis gene imprinting: BS-seq of Arabidopsis thaliana Col, Ler, and Cvi parental and reciprocal F1 hybrid embryo and endosperm

Project description:Imprinted gene expression occurs during seed development in plants and is associated with differential DNA methylation of parental alleles, particularly at proximal transposable elements (TEs). Imprinting variability could contribute to observed parent-of-origin effects on seed development. We investigated intraspecific variation in imprinting, coupled with analysis of DNA methylation and small RNAs, among three Arabidopsis strains with diverse seed phenotypes. The majority of imprinted genes were parentally biased in the same manner among all strains. However, we identified several examples of allele-specific imprinting correlated with intraspecific epigenetic variation at a TE. We successfully predicted imprinting in additional strains based on methylation variability. We conclude that there is standing variation in imprinting even in recently diverged genotypes due to intraspecific epiallelic variation. These data demonstrate that epiallelic variation and genomic imprinting intersect to produce novel gene expression patterns in seeds. Whole genome bisulfite sequencing of embryo and endosperm (14 samples).

Highly Parallel SNP Genotyping Reveals High-resolution Landscape of Mono-allelic Ube3a Expression Associated with Locus-wide Antisense Transcription

Project description:Genomic imprinting is a mammalian-specific gene expression regulation system that distinguishes two parental alleles and yields parent-origin-specific gene expression. It has been identified approximately 90 imprinted gene loci in the mouse genome thus far. One of the molecular bases that establish genomic imprinting is through endogenous antisense transcription. In several imprinted loci, antisense transcription is observed in a repressive allele, probably contributing to the parent-origin-specific gene expression establishment. We investigated the allele- and strand-specific transcriptional dynamics of a megabase-wide genomic region of mouse Ube3a (ubiquitin protein ligase E3A), which is maternally expressed in a tissue-specific manner, by means of a highly parallel SNP genotyping platform that targets the tissue transcriptome. We successfully observed higher resolution transcriptional activity in the vicinity, including brain-specific widespread antisense transcription. We have listed up SNP sites within Ube3a-Snurf/Snrpn region between C57BL/6J and MSM/Ms. SNP sites were loaded onto Illumina GoldenGate Assay platform, and were assayed by targeting total RNA came from brain and liver of F1 hybrid mice.

Allele-specific binding of ZFP57 in the regulation of imprinted and mono-allelic expression

Project description:Selective maintenance of genomic methylation imprints during pre-implantation development is required for parental origin-specific expression of imprinted genes. The Kruppel-like zinc finger protein ZFP57 acts as a factor necessary for maintaining the DNA methylation memory at multiple imprinting control regions (ICRs) in early mouse embryos and ES cells. Maternal-zygotic deletion of ZFP57 in mice presents a highly penetrant phenotype with no animals surviving to birth. In addition, several cases of human transient neonatal diabetes (TND) are associated with somatic mutations in ZFP57 coding sequence. Here we comprehensively map sequence-specific ZFP57 binding sites in an allele-specific manner using hybrid ES cell lines from reciprocal crosses between C57BL/6J and Cast/EiJ mice assigning allele specificity to approximately two thirds of all binding sites. While half of these are biallelic and include ERV targets, the rest show mono-allelic binding based either on parental-origin or on genetic background of the allele. Parental-origin allele-specific binding was methylation-dependent and mapped only to imprinted DMRs established in the germline (gDMRs). No binding was evident at secondary somatically-derived DMRs. ZFP57-bound gDMRs can predict imprinted gene expression and we identify new imprinted genes, including the Fkbp6 gene with a critical function in mouse male germ cell development. Genetic-background specific sequence differences also influence ZFP57 binding. We show that genetic variation that disrupts the consensus binding motif and its methylation is associated with mono-allelic expression of neighbouring genes. The work described here uncovers further roles for ZFP57 mediated regulation of genomic imprinting and identifies a novel mechanism for genetically determined mono-allelic gene expression. Input and Zfp57 CHiP-Seq profiles of hybrid Black6/Cast ES cells were generated by sequencing using the Illumina GAIIx platform.
