Project description:The function and retention/reprogramming of epigenetic marks during the germline-to-embryo transition is a key issue in developmental and cellular biology, with relevance to stem cell programming and trans-generational inheritance. In zebrafish, DNAme patterns are programmed in transcriptionally-quiescent early cleavage embryos; paternally-inherited patterns are maintained, whereas maternal patterns are reprogrammed to match the paternal pattern. Here we show that a ‘placeholder’ nucleosome, containing the histone H2A variant H2A.Z(FV) and H3K4me1, occupies virtually all regions lacking DNAme in both sperm and cleavage embryos – residing at promoters encoding housekeeping and early embryonic transcription factors. Upon genome-wide transcriptional onset, genes with the Placeholder become either active H3K4me3-marked or silent H3K4me3/K27me3-marked (bivalent). Importantly, functional perturbation causing Placeholder loss confers DNAme acquisition, whereas acquisition/expansion of Placeholder confers DNA hypomethylation and improper gene activation. Thus, during transcriptionally quiescent stages (gamete-zygote-cleavage), an H2A.Z(FV)/H3K4me1-containing Placeholder nucleosome deters DNAme, poising parental genes for either gene-specific activation or facultative repression.

Project description:Epigenetic regulation of hematopoiesis by DNA methylation

Project description:In this study, we interrogated the role of DNA methylation in HSPC generation by taking advantage of dnmt1 knockout/knockdown embryos in zebrafish. First, we generated a comprehensive DNA methylation landscape of EHT, which revealed gradually hypermethylated regions associated with vasculogenesis. Taking advantage of dnmt1-deficient embryos, we showed that the decreased DNA methylation blocked HSPC emergence. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that the decreased DNA methylation increased the expression of arterial genes and Notch signaling, thus contributing to defects in the EHT in dnmt1-deficient embryos. Herein, we identified that DNA methylation, as epigenetic regulator, participates in the negative modulation of Notch signaling through inhibiting transcription during HSPC generation in zebrafish.
