Project description:To investigate the relationship between meiotic recombination initiation and H3K4m3 in Arabidopsis, we generated and sequenced H3K4m3 ChIP libraries from meiotic stage floral buds in wild type, arp6 and met1. To produce high-resolution of H3K4m3 mapping, we used micrococcal nuclease (MNase) to digest chromatins that were cross-linked by formaldehyde for ChIP. This experiment provides for H3K4m3 maps with the resolution of mononucleosomal DNA level (~150 bp).

Project description:Human spermatogenesis is a well-ordered dynamic process, which ensures the long-term production of functional spermatozoa; however, the roles of DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility in this process remain largely unknown. Here, by simultaneously investigating the chromatin accessibility, DNA methylome and transcriptome landscapes of human spermatogenesis using the modified single-cell chromatin overall omic-scale landscape sequencing approach (Modified scCOOL-seq), we revealed that the transcriptional changes throughout human spermatogenesis were correlated with the dynamic alternations of chromatin accessibility; particularly, several potential transcription factors and a set of regulatory elements involved in such process were identified. Remarkably, a round of DNA demethylation was uncovered upon meiosis initiation in human spermatogenesis, which was associated with male meiotic recombination and conserved between human and mouse. And aberrant DNA hypermethylation at recombination hotspots could be detected in leptotene spermatocytes of certain nonobstructive azoospermia patients. Functionally, the intervention of DNA demethylation affected male meiotic recombination. Collectively, this study provides multi-omics landscapes of human spermatogenesis at single-cell resolution, and offers insights into the association between DNA demethylation and male meiotic recombination.

Project description:Meiotic recombination initiates via DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) at specialized hotspots, while the regulation of meiotic recombination hotspots in females remain elusive due to the scarcity of embryonic stage germ cells (EGCs). Here, we mapped genome-wide active recombination hotspots and estimated their activities in female EGCs at single-cell resolution, revealing the high variability in hotspot usage frequency among individual germ cells. Further investigation of nucleosome positioning and histone modifications at recombination hotspots revealed that PRDM9-mediated open chromatin and flanking H3K4me3 established earlier at high-frequency hotspots compared with less frequently used ones. Unexpectedly, although recombination hotspots usually distributed outside of heterochromatin, H3K9me3 was clearly enriched around hotspots in females, forming a unique H3K4me3/H3K9me3 bivalent state. And we showed that appropriate H3K9me3 level may be required for downstream DSB repairs. Together, our results provided novel understanding about the landscape and epigenomic regulation of recombination hotspots in females.

Project description:DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are introduced in meiosis to initiate recombination and to generate crossovers, the reciprocal exchanges of genetic material between parental chromosomes. Here we present the first high-resolution map of meiotic DSBs in individual human genomes. Comparing DSB maps between individuals shows that along with DNA binding by PRDM9, additional factors dictate the efficiency of DSB formation. Furthermore, we find that in human males, the frequency of DSB formation is the primary determinant of crossover rate. Patterns of sequence polymorphisms around meiotic DSB hotspots provide evidence for both GC-biased gene conversion and for a mutagenic role of DSB repair and/or recombination. Finally, we provide compelling evidence that the aberrant repair of meiotic DSBs is a driver of human genomic disorders.

Project description:Meiotic recombination differs between males and females, however, when and how these differences are established is unknown. We identify extensive sex differences at recombination initiation by mapping hotspots of meiotic DNA double strand breaks in male and female mice. Contrary to past findings in humans, few hotspots are used uniquely in either sex. Instead, grossly different recombination landscapes result from up to 15-fold differences in hotspot use between males and females. Indeed, most recombination occurs at sex-biased hotspots. Sex biased hotspots appear to be partly determined by chromosome structure, and DNA methylation, absent in females at the onset of meiosis, plays a substantial role. Sex differences are also evident later in meiosis as the repair frequency of distal meiotic breaks as crossovers diverges in males and females. Suppression of distal crossovers may help to minimize age-related aneuploidy that arises due to cohesion loss during dictyate arrest in females.

Project description:In mammalian spermatocytes and oocytes, cohesin complexes serve several distinct functions including establishing the meiotic chromosome architecture into axes and loops, providing sister chromatid cohesion, protecting telomeres, and supporting meiotic recombination. High-resolution analysis of cohesin binding to meiotic chromosomes, however, remained to be performed, mainly because of the complexity of germ cell development and meiotic chromatin, and of the difficulty obtaining proper meiocyte populations. Here, we established a ChIP-seq approach to identify and characterize the genome-wide binding profile of cohesin specifically in murine spermatocytes. Chromatin binding of cohesin proteins SMC3, present in all cohesin complexes, and SMC1β representing the major meiotic complexes, were analyzed. Both cohesins were much reduced in coding exons as well as in 5’ and 3’ UTRs. SMC1β cohesin binding sequences coincide in a large fraction with CACA repeats and thus with transcription factor ZSCAN4C binding sites, but also with other TF sites. We observed neither overlap with recombinase DMC1 sites nor with recombination hotspot marker PRDM9 sites. Most interestingly, meiotic cohesin is strongly enriched at 5S ribosomal RNA genes. We hypothesize a role of cohesin in the regulation of meiotic rDNA stability and/or transcription.

Project description:Meiotic recombination promotes genetic diversification as well as pairing and segregation of homologous chromosomes, but the double-strand breaks (DSBs) that initiate recombination are dangerous lesions that can cause mutation or meiotic failure. How cells control DSBs to balance between beneficial and deleterious outcomes is not well understood. This study tests the hypothesis that DSB control involves a network of intersecting regulatory circuits. We show that DSBs form in greater numbers in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells lacking ZMM proteins, a suite of recombination-promoting factors traditionally regarded as acting strictly downstream of DSB formation. This counterintuitive result suggests that homologous chromosomes that have successfully engaged one another stop making DSBs, and provides new insight into phenotypes of zmm and other recombination-defective mutants. A genetically distinct pathway ties DSB formation to meiotic progression through the Ndt80 transcription factor. High-resolution genome-wide DSB maps generated by sequencing short oligonucleotides covalently bound to Spo11 (Spo11 oligos) demonstrate that feedback tied to ZMM function contributes in unexpected ways to spatial patterning of the recombination landscape.
