ChIP-MS of DPPA3/STELLA in mouse embryonic stem cells

ABSTRACT: Genome-wide DNA demethylation is a unique feature of mammalian development and naïve pluripotent stem cells. So far, it was unclear how mammals specifically achieve global DNA hypomethylation, given the high conservation of the DNA (de-)methylation machinery among vertebrates. We found that DNA demethylation requires TET activity but mostly occurs at sites where TET proteins are not bound suggesting a rather indirect mechanism. Among the few specific genes bound and activated by TET proteins was the naïve pluripotency and germline marker Dppa3 (Pgc7, Stella), which undergoes TDG dependent demethylation. The requirement of TET proteins for genome-wide DNA demethylation could be bypassed by ectopic expression of Dppa3. We show that DPPA3 binds and displaces UHRF1 from chromatin and thereby prevents the recruitment and activation of the maintenance DNA methyltransferase DNMT1. We demonstrate that DPPA3 alone can drive global DNA demethylation when transferred to amphibians (Xenopus) and fish (medaka), both species that naturally do not have a Dppa3 gene and exhibit no post-fertilization DNA demethylation. Our results show that TET proteins are responsible for active and - indirectly also for - passive DNA demethylation; while TET proteins initiate local and gene-specific demethylation in vertebrates, the recent emergence of DPPA3 introduced a unique means of genome-wide passive demethylation in mammals and contributed to the evolution of epigenetic regulation during early mammalian development.

Roles of TET and TDG in DNA demethylation in proliferating and non-proliferating immune cells [CMS-Seq]

Project description:TET enzymes mediate DNA demethylation by oxidizing 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in DNA to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC) and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC). Because these oxidized methylcytosines (oxi-mC) are not recognized by the maintenance methyltransferase DNMT1, DNA demethylation can occur through “passive”, replication-dependent dilution as cells divide. A distinct, replication-independent (“active”) mechanism of DNA demethylation involves excision of 5fC and 5caC by the DNA repair enzyme thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG), followed by base excision repair. Here we used inducible gene-disrupted mice to show that TET enzymes influence both replication-dependent primary T cell differentiation and replication-independent macrophage differentiation, whereas TDG has no effect. Mice with long-term (1 year) deletion of Tdg are healthy and show normal survival and hematopoiesis. In summary, TET enzymes regulate differentiation and DNA demethylation primarily through passive dilution of oxidized methylcytosines in replicating T cells, and active, replication-independent DNA demethylation mediated by TDG does not appear to be essential for immune cell activation or differentiation.

Individual retrotransposon integrants are differentially controlled by KZFP/KAP1-dependent histone methylation, DNA methylation and TET-mediated hydroxymethylation in naïve embryonic stem cells

Project description:The KZFP/KAP1 (KRAB zinc finger proteins/KRAB-associated protein 1) system plays a central role in the silencing of transposable elements (TEs) and the maintenance of parent-of-origin DNA methylation at imprinting control regions (ICRs) during the wave of genome-wide reprogramming that precedes implantation. In naïve murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs), the genome is maintained highly hypomethylated by a combination of active demethylation (operated by TET proteins) and lack of de novo methylation; in these cells, KAP1 is tethered by sequence-specific KZFPs to ICRs and TEs where it recruits histone and DNA methyltransferases to impose heterochromatin formation and DNA methylation. Here, upon removing either KAP1 or the cognate KZFP, we observed rapid TET-dependent accumulation of 5hmC at both ICRs and TEs. In absence of the KZFP/KAP1 complex, ICRs lost heterochromatic histone marks and underwent both active and passive DNA demethylation. Using RNA-seq, we further compared the expression profiles of TEs upon Kap1 removal in wild type, Dnmt and Tet triple knockout mESCs. We found that KAP1 represents the main effector of TEs repression in all three settings, yet we could additionally identify specific groups of TEs also controlled by DNA methylation. Furthermore, activation upon Kap1 removal in the absence of TET proteins could be either blunted or increased depending on TE subsets, indicating a complex interplay between heterochomatin and active demethylation in regulating the expression of the endovirome.

Active and Passive Demethylation of Male and Female Pronuclear DNA in the Mammalian Zygote

Project description:The epigenomes of mammalian sperm and oocytes, characterized by gamete-specific 5-methylcytosine (5mC) patterns, are reprogrammed during early embryogenesis to establish full developmental potential. Previous studies have suggested that the paternal genome is actively demethylated in the zygote while the maternal genome undergoes subsequent passive demethylation via DNA replication during cleavage. Active demethylation is known to depend on 5mC oxidation by Tet dioxygenases and excision of oxidized bases by thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG). Here we show that both maternal and paternal genomes undergo widespread active and passive demethylation in zygotes before the first mitotic division. Passive demethylation was blocked by the replication inhibitor aphidicolin, and active demethylation was abrogated by deletion of Tet3 in both pronuclei. At actively demethylated loci, 5mCs were processed to unmodified cytosines. Surprisingly, the demethylation process was unaffected by the deletion of TDG from the zygote, suggesting the existence of other demethylation mechanisms downstream of Tet3-mediated oxidation.

Active DNA demethylation during the vertebrate phylotypic period

Project description:The vertebrate body plan and organs are shaped during a highly conserved embryonic phase called the phylotypic stage, however the mechanisms that guide the epigenome through this transition and their evolutionary conservation remain elusive. Here we report widespread DNA demethylation of thousands of enhancers during the phylotypic period in zebrafish, Xenopus and mouse. These dynamic enhancers are linked to essential developmental genes that display coordinated transcriptional and epigenomic changes in the diverse vertebrates during embryogenesis. Phylotypic stage-specific binding of Tet proteins to (hydroxy)methylated DNA, and enrichment of hydroxymethylcytosine on these enhancers, implicated active DNA demethylation in this process. Furthermore, loss of function of Tet1/2/3 in zebrafish caused reduced chromatin accessibility and increased methylation levels specifically on these enhancers, indicative of DNA methylation being an upstream regulator of phylotypic enhancer function. Overall, our study reveals a novel regulatory module associated with the most conserved phase of vertebrate embryogenesis and uncovers an ancient developmental role for the Tet dioxygenases.

Pronounced specificity of the TET enzyme catalytic domain guides cellular function

Project description:TET (ten-eleven translocation) enzymes catalyze the oxidation of 5-methylcytosine bases in DNA, thus driving active and passive DNA demethylation. Here, we report that the catalytic domain of mammalian TET enzymes favor CGs embedded within bHLH and bZIP transcription factor binding sites, with up to 250-fold preference in vitro. Crystal structures and molecular dynamics calculations show that sequence preference is caused by intrasubstrate interactions and CG flanking sequence indirectly affecting enzyme conformation. TET sequence preferences are physiologically relevant as they explain the rates of DNA demethylation in TET-rescue experiments in culture and in vivo within the zygote and germline. Most and least favorable TET motifs represent DNA sites that are bound by methylation-sensitive immediate-early transcription factors and OCT4, respectively, illuminating TET function in transcriptional responses and pluripotency support.

A Primary Role of TET Proteins in Establishment and Maintenance of De Novo Bivalency at CpG Islands of Developmental Genes

Project description:TET protein-catalyzed 5mC oxidation not only creates novel DNA modifications such as 5hmC, but also initiates active or passive DNA demethylation. However, the TETsâ function in crosstalk with specific histone modifications is largely elusive. Here, we show that TET2-mediated DNA demethylation plays a primary role in the de novo establishment and maintenance of H3K4me3/H3K27me3 bivalent domain underlying the methylated DNA CpG islands (CGIs). Overexpression of wild type (WT) but not catalytic inactive mutant (Mut) TET2 in TET-low-expressing cells results in increase of 5hmC level and accompanying DNA demethylation at a subset of CGIs. Importantly, this is sufficient to create de novo bivalent domains at these loci. Genome-wide analysis reveals that these de novo synthesized bivalent domains are largely associated with a subset of key developmental gene promoters, which are often located within CpG islands that are previously hyper-methylated and silenced. On the other hand, depletion of Tet1 and Tet2 in mouse ES cells results in an apparent loss of H3K27me3 at bivalent domains, which are located within CGIs and associated with a particular set of key developmental gene promoters. Collectively, these data suggest that TET proteins have a primary role in charge of regulating the crosstalk between two key epigenetic mechanisms, DNA methylation and histone methylation (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3), particularly at a subset of CpG islands associated with developmental genes. We examined H3K4me3,H3K27me3,5mC and 5hmC in 293T and mES cell types,using Illumina Hiseq2500.

Distinguishing active versus passive DNA demethylation using Illumina MethylationEPIC BeadChip microarrays

Project description:The 5-carbon position on cytosine nucleotides preceding guanines in genomic DNA (CpG) are common targets for DNA methylation (5mC). Genomic locations enriched for 5mC contribute to the regulation of chromatin structure and gene expression. While largely stable, massive waves of DNA demethylation are observed in key developmental windows in mammals. Additionally, DNA methylation is therapeutically targeted in cancer via DNA methyltransferase inhibition, in part to reverse abnormal silencing of tumor suppressor genes. DNA methylation removal can occur through both active and passive mechanisms. Ten-eleven translocation enzymes (TETs) oxidize 5mC in a stepwise manner to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC). These oxidized cytosine forms have reported function in gene regulation and also serve as intermediates in an active 5mC removal process that involves the base excision repair pathway. 5mC can also be removed passively through sequential cell divisions in the absence of DNA methylation maintenance. Distinguishing active versus passive 5mC removal on a genome-wide scale remains a challenge. In this chapter, we describe approaches that couple TET-assisted bisulfite (TAB) and oxidative bisulfite (OxBS) conversion to the Illumina MethylationEPIC BeadChIP (EPIC array) and show how these technologies can be used to distinguish active versus passive DNA demethylation. We also describe integrative bioinformatics pipelines to facilitate this analysis.
