Reprogramming of H3K9me3-dependent heterochromatin during mammalian early embryo development [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: H3K9me3-dependent heterochromatin is considered as one of the major barriers for cell fate changes, and must be reprogrammed during fertilization to reactivate highly specialized paternal and maternal genome to establish totipotency. However, the molecular details are lacked for early embryos due to the limited materials. Here we map the genome-wide distribution of H3K9me3 modification in the early embryo as well as in the cell fate determined embryonic tissues after implantation. We find that H3K9me3 exhibits distinct dynamic features in promoters and retro-transposons. Both maternal and paternal genome undergo large scale of H3K9me3 reestablishment after fertilization, and the imbalance of maternal H3K9me3 signal over paternal last until the blastocyst stage. The rebuilding of H3K9me3 on LTR retro-transposons maintains its repression state after the global DNA demethylation, and we further discover that Chaf1a is essential for the establishment of H3K9me3 on LTRs and the loss function of Chaf1a leads to embryo development failure. Finally, we find that lineage specific H3K9me3 is established after lineage commitment in post-implantation embryos. Thus, our data demonstrate that H3K9me3-dependent heterochromatin undergoes dramatic reprogramming during early embryo development and the establishment of H3K9me3 on LTRs is essential for proper embryo development.

VL30 retro-transposons are TRIM24-repressed enhancers that generate non-coding RNA to regulate gene expression in mouse hepatocytes. [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:TRIM24 and TRIM33 interact to form a corepressor complex that suppresses murine hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TRIM24 and TRIM33 cooperatively repress retinoic acid receptor dependent activity of VL30 retro-transposons in hepatocytes in vivo. In TRIM24 knockout hepatocytes, VL30 long terminal repeats (LTRs) generate enhancer (e)RNAs and act as surrogate promoter and enhancer elements deregulating expression of neighbouring genes. We show that a VL30 LTR-derived eRNA is essential to activate the lipocalin 13 gene in hepatocytes in vivo. A further consequence of VL30 de-repression is the accumulation of retro-transcribed VL30 DNA in the cytoplasm of TRIM24-mutant hepatocytes and activation of the viral defence/interferon response. VL30 activation therefore modulates gene expression via the enhancer activity of the LTRs and by activation of the interferon response. Both of these processes are genetically linked to HCC development suggesting that VL30 repression by TRIM24 plays an important role in tumour suppression.

Non-allelic homologous recombination between retrotransposable elements is a major driver of de novo unbalanced translocations.

Project description:Large scale analysis of balanced chromosomal translocation breakpoints has shown nonhomologous end joining and microhomology-mediated repair to be the main drivers of interchromosomal structural aberrations. Breakpoint sequences of de novo unbalanced translocations have not yet been investigated systematically. We analyzed 12 de novo translocations and mapped the breakpoints in 9. Surprisingly, in contrast to balanced translocations, we identify non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) between (retro)transposable elements and especially long interspersed elements (LINEs) as the main mutational mechanism. This finding implicates (retro)transposons to be a major driver of genomic rearrangements and exposes a profoundly different mutational mechanism compared to balanced chromosomal translocations. Furthermore, we show the existence of compound maternal/paternal derivative chromosomes, reinforcing the hypothesis that human cleavage stage embryogenesis is a cradle of chromosomal rearrangements. In total 36 non-amplified genomic DNA samples (12 patients plus parents) extracted from blood or amniocytes were analyzed by 250K Nsp I SNP arrays (GEO accession number GPL3718).

Oviductal fluid LC-MS/MS - The Wilms tumor protein Wt1 contributes to female fertility by regulating oviductal proteostasis

Project description:After fertilization the developing mammalian embryo migrates through the oviduct before it implants in the uterus. In order to prevent tubal pregnancy or failed implantation, development and migration of the embryo has to be tightly coordinated1. The precise molecular basis for the regulation of this maternal-embryonic interaction is largely unknown. Here we show that the Wilms tumor suppressor protein Wt1 is a critical regulator of the interaction between the maternal environment and the early embryo. Our results indicate that subfertility in Wt1ko/+ females is a maternal effect caused by the Wt1-dependent de-regulation of Prss29, encoding a serine protease. Notably, blocking Prss29 activity was sufficient to rescue subfertility in Wt1ko/+ female mice indicating Prss29 as a critical factor in female fertility. Furthermore, we have identified a missense mutation in a patient with idiopathic infertility leading to an amino acid exchange within the zinc finger domain of WT1 and resulting in reduced DNA binding. We demonstrate that Wt1 represses expression of Prss29 and that its de-repression and precocious expression in the oviduct interferes with pre-implantation development. Our study reveals a novel role for Wt1 in early mammalian development and identifies proteases as critical mediators of the maternal-embryonic crosstalk. We believe that our data regarding the importance of a proteostatic environment in the oviduct are also relevant for female fertility in humans. We anticipate that our findings will form the basis for the identification of further causes of idiopathic infertility.

A unique regulatory phase of DNA methylation in the early mammalian embryo

Project description:DNA methylation is highly dynamic during mammalian embryogenesis. It is broadly accepted that the paternal genome is actively depleted of global cytosine methylation at fertilization, followed by passive depletion that reaches a minimum at the blastocyst stage. However, this model is based on limited data, and to date no base-resolution maps exist to support and refine it. Here, we generated genome-scale DNA methylation maps in mouse gametes and through post-implantation embryogenesis. We find that the oocyte already exhibits global hypomethylation, most prominently at specific subfamilies of LINE-1 and LTR-containing retro-elements, which are disparate between gametes and resolve to lower methylation values in zygote. Surprisingly, the oocyte contributes a unique set of Differentially Methylated Regions (DMRs), including many CpG Island promoter regions, that are maintained in the early embryo but are lost at the onset of embryonic specification and absent in somatic cells. In contrast, sperm contributed methylation includes retrotransposons that become completely methylated after the blastocyst stage. Our data provide a complete genome-scale, base-resolution timeline of DNA methylation in the pre-specified embryo, when this epigenetic modification is most dynamic and before returning to the canonical somatic pattern.

Metabolic Changes of Maternal Uterine Fluid, Uterus, and Plasma during the Peri-implantation Period of Early Pregnancy in Mice

Project description:Embryo implantation is a complex process which involves biochemical and physiological interactions between an implantation-competent blastocyst and a receptive uterus. However, the exact biochemical changes of uterine fluid, uterus, and plasma during peri-implantation remain unclear. This study aims to characterize the biochemical and metabolic changes that occur during the peri-implantation period of early pregnancy, using mice as an animal model. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to analyze the metabolite profiles of the uterus, uterine fluid, and maternal plasma at pre-implantation and implantation. The multivariate analyses, ANOVA and Tukey's HSD test, were applied to detect significant changes in metabolites and metabolic pathways. The metabolic networks were reconstructed in silico based on the identified metabolites and KEGG metabolic framework. Between pre-implantation day 1 and day 4, dramatic metabolic changes were observed in the uterine fluid that could be important for blastocyst development and protection against the harsh uterine environment. Palmitoleic acid, fumaric acid, and glutaric acid changed levels at day 4 in the uterus, suggesting that they may be associated with endometrial receptivity. Both the uterus and maternal plasma showed profound changes in cellular metabolism at the early implantation period, including upregulation of branched-chain amino acids and intermediates of one-carbon metabolism, an upregulation of glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, and downregulation of aerobic respiration; all of which could be involved in the regulation of the maternal-fetal interface, alternative nutrient utilization, and energy preservation for implantation as well as later placentation and fetal development to ensure successful embryo implantation.
