The formation and propagation of human Robertsonian chromosomes.

Project description:Robertsonian chromosomes are a type of variant chromosome found commonly in nature. Present in one in 800 humans, these chromosomes can underlie infertility, trisomies, and increased cancer incidence. Recognized cytogenetically for more than a century, their origins have remained mysterious. Recent advances in genomics allowed us to assemble three human Robertsonian chromosomes completely. We identify a common breakpoint and epigenetic changes in centromeres that provide insight into the formation and propagation of common Robertsonian translocations. Further investigation of the assembled genomes of chimpanzee and bonobo highlights the structural features of the human genome that uniquely enable the specific crossover event that creates these chromosomes. Resolving the structure and epigenetic features of human Robertsonian chromosomes at a molecular level paves the way to understanding how chromosomal structural variation occurs more generally, and how chromosomes evolve.

DNA break formation induces Scc2/cohesin-dependent recruitment of condensin to meiotic chromosomes

Project description:Meiotic chromosome pairing, recombination, and fertility depends on the conserved loop-axis architecture of meiotic chromosomes. This architecture is modulated by condensin, a structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) complex that catalyzes chromatin loop formation. Here, we investigated how condensin is recruited to meiotic chromosomes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We show that double-strand break (DSB) formation, the initiating event of meiotic recombination, causes condensin redistribution from the nucleolus to DSB hotspots, pericentromeric regions and axis attachment sites. Hotspot association of condensin correlates weakly with break probability but does not depend on local DSB formation, whereas association with axis sites and pericentromeric regions depends on the Scc2-associated pool of cohesin, another SMC complex. Intriguingly, Scc2 distribution also changes in response to DSB formation. As condensin and Scc2-cohesin both catalyze chromatin loop extrusion, their redistribution upon DSB formation implies a profound change in chromatin loop dynamics that may help promote proper chromosome pairing and DNA repair.

Robertsonian translocations modify genomic distribution of gH2AX and H3.3 in mouse germ cells

Project description:Purpose: determine if gH2AX and H3.3 are enriched at unsynapsed regions of chromosomes involved in translocations in mouse germ line (meiotic prophase I) Methods: testes were isolated from 4-week or 6-week old heterozygous carriers of a single Robertsonian translocation RB(8;12) or 3 Robertsonian translocations RB(8;12), RB(1;3) and RB(9;14) and controls. ChIP assays were conducted as described in Smagulova 2011. Experiments done in triplicate. Results: We find enrichment of gH2AX in the proximal gene-rich regions of translocation-associated chromosomes and reduced enrichment of gH2AX and H3.3 at sex chromosomes
