Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to generate paired-end mRNA Seq transcriptomes of control and Kdm4a mutant oocytes, 2-cell, 4-cell and 8-cell preimplantation embryos to study the dynamics of differentially expressed genes during early development Methods: MII oocytes were isolated from wildtype and Kdm4a knockout mice. 16 MII oocytes from each genotype were washed in M2 medim after zona pellucida removal, washed once in nuclease free water and directly lysed and cDNA prepared according to the manufacturers instructions. Meanwhile, control and knockout MII oocytes were also in vitro fertilised with Kdm4a knockout sperm to produce control (+/-) and maternal mutant (-/-) embryos, and cultured in KSOM EmbryoMax medium (Sigma). 16 embryos were staged each day and harvested according to control embryos. Healthiest mutants were chosen for comparison with minimal secondary effects arising from dead/dying embryos. Similar to oocytes, individual cDNA were prepared and amplified according to manufacturers instructions in nuclease free conditions. Conclusions: Our study represents a detailed analysis of differentially expressed genes in oocytes and embryos lacking maternal and endogenous Kdm4a, with sixteen biological replicates, generated by SMARTSeq v4 paired end RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles between the samples at each developmental stage. Our results show that there is a consistent downrgulation of zygotic genome activation (ZGA) genes in the mutant 2-cell embryos. Mutant 4 and 8-cell embryos have significant upregulation of minor ZGA genes giving us robust statistical significance. We conclude that Kdm4a is required for proper gene activation during maternal-to zygotic transition in conjuction with a permissive chromatin landscape.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to generate paired-end total RNA Seq transcriptomes of wildtype and Kdm4a 2 cell embryos to study the dynamics of differentially expressed repeats and transposons during early murine development Methods: 2 cell embryos cultured in KSOM EmbryoMax medium (Sigma) were subjected to the SMARTSeq Stranded Total RNASeq protocol according to the manufacturers instructions on the same day simultaneously for control and knockout embryos. Conclusions: Our study represents a detailed analysis of differentially expressed repeats and transposons in embryos lacking maternal or endogenous Kdm4a, with six biologic replicates, generated by SMARTSeq STranded paired end RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. Our results show that there is a consistent downrgulation of specific LTR families afffected in most biological replicates, by the lack of Kdm4a giving us robust statistical significance. We conclude that Kdm4a is required for proper activation of these repeat elements in conjuction with a permissive chromatin landscape.

Project description:The importance of germline-inherited posttranslational histone modification in priming early mammalian development is just emerging1-4. Histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) trimethylation is associated with heterochromatin and gene repression during cell-fate change5, while histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) trimethylation marks active gene promoters6. Mature oocytes are transcriptionally quiescent and possess remarkably broad domains of H3K4me3 (bdH3K4me3)1, 2. It remains unknown, which factors contribute to the maintenance of the bdH3K4me3 landscape. Lysine-specific demethylase 4A (KDM4A) demethylates H3K9me3 at promoters marked by H3K4me3 in actively transcribing somatic cells7. Here, we report that KDM4A-mediated H3K9me3 demethylation at bdH3K4me3 in oocytes is crucial for normal preimplantation development and zygotic genome activation (ZGA) after fertilization. Loss of KDM4A in oocytes causes extensive and aberrant H3K9me3 spreading at bdH3K4me3, resulting in insufficient transcriptional activation ZGA genes, endogenous retroviral elements and long terminal repeat -initiated chimeric transcripts in 2-cell embryos. The catalytic activity of KDM4A is essential for normal epigenetic reprogramming and preimplantation development. Hence, KDM4A plays a crucial role in preserving maternal epigenome integrity required for proper ZGA and transfer of developmental control to the embryo.

Project description:We report the application of low input high-throughput profiling of histone modifications in mouse oocytes. Using antibodies against H3K4me3 (100 oocytes/replicate; 2 biological replicates per genotype) and H3K9me3 ( around 300 oocytes/replicate; 2 biological replicates per genotype), we find that they are mutually exclusive in oocytes and this property is lost in oocytes lacking Kdm4a. H3K9me3 is spread into regions of H3K4me3 postive open chromatin which is surprisingly, well preserved leading to a potential bivalency of scale. Altogether, KDM4A is important to keep H3K4me3 marked open chromatin clear of H3K9me3 spreading in oocytes.

Project description:We report the first genome-wide landscape of H3K9me2 ChIP-seq profile in mouse oocytes. We also performed whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and RNA-seq analysis of G9a conditional KO oocytes and maternal KO preimplantation embryos. Our findings illuminate the functional importance of G9a in preimplantation development and, in addition, pose a question on the proposed role for H3K9me2 in protection of the maternal genome from active CG demethylation.

Project description:Used a DNA tag sequencing and mapping strategy called gene identification signature (GIS) analysis, in which 5' and 3' signatures of full-length cDNAs are accurately extracted into paired-end ditags (PETs) that are concatenated for efficient sequencing and mapped to genome sequences to demarcate the transcription boundaries of every gene. GIS analysis is potentially 30-fold more efficient than standard cDNA sequencing approaches for transcriptome characterization. Keywords: Paired End DiTags
