Project description:We assayed CpG methylation in cerebral cortex of neurologically and psychiatrically normal human postmortem specimens, as well as mouse forebrain specimens. Cross-species human-mouse DNA methylation conservation analysis shows that DNA methylation is not correlated with sequence conservation. Instead, greater DNA methylation conservation is correlated with increasing CpG density. We identified key genomic features that can be targeted for identification of epigenetic loci that may be developmentally and evolutionarily conserved and wherein aberrations in DNA methylation patterns can confer risk for disease.

Project description:Background: Trisomy 21 causes Down syndrome (DS), but the mechanisms by which the extra chromosome leads to deficient intellectual and immune function are not well understood. Results: Here, we profile CpG methylation in DS and control cerebral and cerebellar cortex of adults and cerebrum of fetuses. We purify neuronal and non-neuronal nuclei and T-lymphocytes and find biologically relevant genes with DS-specific methylation (DS-DM) in brain cells. Some genes show brain-specific DS-DM, while others show stronger DS-DM in T cells. Both 5-methyl-cytosine and 5-hydroxy-methyl-cytosine contribute to the DS-DM. Thirty percent of genes with DS-DM in adult brain cells also show DS-DM in fetal brains, indicating early onset of these epigenetic changes, and we find early maturation of methylation patterns in DS brain and lymphocytes. Some, but not all, of the DS-DM genes show differential expression. DS-DM preferentially affected CpGs in or near specific transcription factor binding sites, implicating a mechanism involving altered transcription factor binding. Methyl-seq of brain DNA from mouse models with sub-chromosomal duplications mimicking DS reveals partial but significant overlaps with human DS-DM and shows that multiple chromosome 21 genes contribute to the downstream epigenetic effects. Conclusions: These data point to novel biological mechanisms in DS and have general implications for trans effects of chromosomal duplications and aneuploidies on epigenetic patterning. Examination of methylation changes in two mouse models of Down syndrome with sub-chromosomal duplications, Dp(10)1Yey and Dp(16)1Yey, compared to one littermate wild type mouse using whole genome bisulfite sequencing.

Project description:Methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP), a key enzyme in the adenine and methionine salvage pathways, catalyzes the hydrolysis of methylthioadenosine (MTA), a compound suggested to affect pivotal cellular processes in part through the regulation of protein methylation. MTAP is expressed in a wide range of cell types and tissues and its deletion is common to cancer cells and in liver injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the proteome and methyl proteome alterations triggered by MTAP deficiency in liver cells to define novel regulatory mechanisms that may explain the pathogenic processes of liver diseases. iTRAQ analysis resulted in the identification of 216 differential proteins (p<0.05) that suggest deregulation of cellular pathways as those mediated by ERK or NFκB. R-methyl proteome analysis lead to the identification of 74 differentially methylated proteins between SK-Hep1 and SK-Hep1+ cells, including 116 new methylation sites. Restoring normal MTA levels in SK-Hep1+ cells parallels the specific methylation of 56 proteins, including KRT8, TGF and CTF8A, which provides a novel regulatory mechanism of their activity with potential implications in carcinogenesis. Inhibition of RNA binding proteins methylation is especially relevant upon accumulation of MTA. As an example, methylation of quaking protein in R242 and R256 in SK-Hep1+ cells may play a pivotal role in the regulation of its activity as indicated by the up-regulation of its target protein p27 kip1. The phenotype associated with a MTAP deficiency was further verified in the liver of MTAP+/- mice. Our data support that MTAP deficiency leads to MTA accumulation and deregulation of central cellular pathways, increasing proliferation and decreasing the susceptibility to chemotherapeutic drugs, which involves differential protein methylation.

Project description:Protein methyltransferases can recognise their substrates through linear sequence motifs and determination of these motifs is critical to understand methyltransferase mechanism, function and drug targeting. Here we describe MT-MAMS (methyltransferase motif analysis by mass spectrometry), a quantitative approach to characterise methyltransferase substrate recognition motifs and enzyme processivity. We validated MT-MAMS by application to lysine methyltransferase G9a, then determined the recognition motifs of Efm1 and major arginine methyltransferases Hmt1 and PRMT1.

Project description:The variation among induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in their differentiation capacity to specific lineages is frequently attributed to somatic memory. In this study, we compared hematopoietic differentiation capacity of 35 human iPSC lines derived from four different tissues and four embryonic stem cell lines. The analysis revealed that hematopoietic commitment capacity (PSCs to hematopoietic precursors) is correlated with the expression level of the IGF2 gene independent of the iPSC origins. In contrast, maturation capacity (hematopoietic precursors to mature blood) is affected by iPSC origin; blood-derived iPSCs showed the highest capacity. However, some fibroblast-derived iPSCs showed higher capacity than blood-derived clones. Tracking of DNA methylation changes during reprogramming reveals that maturation capacity is highly associated with aberrant DNA methylation acquired during reprogramming, rather than the types of iPSC origins. These data demonstrated that variations in the hematopoietic differentiation capacity of iPSCs are not attributable to somatic memories of their origins. Methyl-seq analysis for undifferentiated induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines (n = 21), human dermal fibroblast (HDF, n = 1), human peripheral blood (n = 1), and human keratinocyte (n = 1), and ATAC-seq analysis for 2 iPSC lines and an embryonic stem cell (ESC) line with two different culture conditions.

Project description:Pathologic differentiation of tissue of origin in tumors found in the lung can be challenging, with differentiation of mesothelioma and lung adenocarcinoma emblematic of this problem. Indeed, proper classification is essential for determination of treatment regimen for these diseases, making accurate and early diagnosis critical. Here we investigate the potential of epigenetic profiles of lung adenocarcinoma, mesothelioma, and non-malignant pulmonary tissues (n=285) as differentiation markers in an analysis of DNA methylation at 1413 autosomal CpG loci associated with 773 cancer-related genes. Using an unsupervised recursively-partitioned mixture modeling technique for all samples, the derived methylation profile classes were significantly associated with sample type (P < 0.0001). In a similar analysis restricted to tumors, methylation profile classes significantly predicted tumor type (P < 0.0001). Random forests classification of CpG methylation of tumors - which splits the data into training and test sets - accurately differentiated MPM from lung adenocarcinoma over 99% of the time (P < 0.0001). In a locus-by-locus comparison of CpG methylation between tumor types, 1266 CpG loci had significantly different methylation between tumors following correction for multiple comparisons (Q < 0.05); 61% had higher methylation in adenocarcinoma. Using the CpG loci with significant differential methylation in a pathways analysis revealed significant enrichment of methylated gene-loci in Cell Cycle Regulation, DNA Damage Response, PTEN Signaling, and Apoptosis Signaling pathways in lung adenocarcinoma when compared to mesothelioma. Methylation-profile-based differentiation of lung adenocarcinoma and mesothelioma is highly accurate, informs on the distinct etiologies of these diseases, and holds promise for clinical application. Mesotheliomas (n=158) and grossly non-tumorigenic parietal pleura (n=18) were obtained following surgical resection at Brigham and Womenâ??s Hospital through the International Mesothelioma Program from a pilot study conducted in 2002 (n=70) and an incident case series beginning in 2005 (n=88) with a participation rate of 85%. We used biopsy specimens from patients treated for NSCLC at the Massachusetts General Hospital from 1992 â?? 1996 (18) including lung adenocarcinomas (n=57) and non-malignant pulmonary tissues (n=48) (of which 22 (39%) were taken from the adenocarcinoma patients) (18). Additional normal lung tissues were obtained from the National Disease Research Interchange from donors free of lung malignancy (n=4).

Project description:Integrated profiling of somatic molecular alterations present in tumors is necessary to further our understanding of the tumorigenic process. We investigated the potential relationships between gene copy number alterations and DNA methylation profiles in a case series of pleural mesotheliomas (n=23). Gene copy number (CN) alterations profiled with 500K SNP arrays and DNA methylation measured at over 750 cancer-related genes with methylation bead-arrays were examined concomitantly. Considering each probed locus, there were no instances of significantly correlated CN alteration and methylation (no loci with Q < 0.05) and averaging loci over their associated genes revealed only two genes with significantly correlated CN and methylation alterations (Q < 0.04). In contrast to the lack of discrete correlations, the overall extent of tumor CN alteration was significantly associated with DNA methylation profile when comparing CN alteration extent among methylation profile classes (P < 0.02), and there was evidence that this association was partially attributable to prevalent allele loss observed at the maintenance DNA methyltransferase DNMT1. Taken together, this work indicates a strong association between global genetic and global epigenetic dysregulation in mesothelioma rather than a discrete, local coordination of gene inactivation, and further highlights the utility and necessity of integrative genomics approaches in cancer biology. Mesotheliomas were obtained following surgical resection at Brigham and Women’s Hospital through the International Mesothelioma Program from a pilot study conducted in 2002 and an incident case series beginning in 2005 as previously described (PMIDs: 19118007 and 19638575). All patients provided informed consent under the approval of the appropriate Institutional Review Boards. Clinical information, including histologic diagnosis was obtained from pathology reports. The study pathologist confirmed the histologic diagnoses and further assessed the percent tumor from resected specimens (mean >60%). DNA extraction and methylation analysis: DNA from fresh frozen tissue and matched whole blood was isolated with QIAamp DNA mini kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Tumor DNA was modified with sodium bisulfite using the EZ DNA Methylation Kit (Zymo Research, Orange, CA). Illumina GoldenGate® methylation bead arrays interrogated 1505 CpG loci associated with 803 cancer-related genes processed at the UCSF Institute for Human Genetics, Genomics Core Facility using methods described in (28). The GoldenGate methylation data used in the analysis has been previously described (PMIDs: 19118007 and 19638575).

Project description:We pursued the hypothesis that epigenetic regulators of transcription are involved in both the development and the progression of HPV-associated CIN. Using HELP-tagging, we performed the most comprehensive study to date of DNA methylation in HPV-associated cervical neoplasia, testing ~2 million loci throughout the human genome in biopsies from 78 HPV+ women, identifying changes starting in early CIN and maintained through carcinogenesis. We identified loci at which DNA methylation is consistently altered, beginning early in the course of neoplastic disease and progressing with disease advancement. DNA methylation profiles for cervical biopsies of 19 normals, 20 CIN1, 16 CIN2/3, and 23 cervical cancers.
