Project description:DNA methylation is an evolutionarily conserved epigenetic mechanism essential for transposon silencing and heterochromatin assembly. In plants, Chromomethylase3 (CMT3) and CMT2 are the major DNA methyltransferases mediating DNA methylation on CHG and CHH (H = A, C or T), respectively, but the underlying mechanisms of how CMT3 and CMT2 methylate different contexts during evolution is poorly known. Here we reveal the mechanisms of CMT3 and CMT2 divergence in flowering plants. CMT2 originates from a duplication of the evolutionarily more ancient CMT3 and change of a key arginine residue recognizing CHG in CMT2 makes it lose CHG methylation activity in most flowering plants. Mutation of the residue to arginine in Arabidopsis (V1200R) greatly increases its methylation activity on CHG DNA. Besides different substrate specificity, CMT2 contains a long and disordered N-terminus compared with a short one in CMT3. The long N-terminus reduces protein stability, especially under high temperature. Moreover, CMT2 N-terminus is plastic to various natural mutations. Together, our study reveals the mechanisms of chromomethylase divergence for methylating different DNA contexts in plants and sheds light on understanding of plant evolution.

Project description:Transcription factors (TFs) recognizing DNA motifs within regulatory regions drive cell identity. Despite recent advances, their specificity remains incompletely understood. Here, we address this by contrasting two TFs, Neurogenin-2 (NGN2) and MyoD1, which recognize ubiquitous E-box motifs yet drive distinct cell fates toward neurons and muscles, respectively. Upon induction in mouse embryonic stem cells, we monitor binding across differentiation, employing an interpretable machine learning approach that integrates preexisting DNA accessibility. This reveals a chromatin-dependent motif syntax, delineating both common and factor-specific binding, validated by cellular and in vitro assays. Shared binding sites reside in open chromatin, locally influenced by nucleosomes. In contrast, factor-specific binding in closed chromatin involves NGN2 and MyoD1 acting as pioneer factors, influenced by motif variant frequencies, motif spacing, and interaction partners, which together account for subsequent lineage divergence. Transferring our methodology to other models demonstrates how a combination of opportunistic binding and context-specific chromatin-opening underpin TF specificity, driving differentiation trajectories.
