Project description:Cytosine methylation in the genome of Drosophila melanogaster has been elusive and controversial: methylcytosine has been detected at very low levels in early embryos, but the genomic location and function of methylation has not been established. We have mapped cytosine methylation genomewide in Stage 5 Drosophila embryo DNA by combining immuno-enrichment for 5-methylcytosine, bisulfite conversion, and deep sequencing. Unlike methylation patterns observed in other eukaryotic species, methylation in Drosophila is punctate and highly strand-asymmetrical; we confirmed this by direct PCR amplification and sequencing of bisulfite-converted DNA. Despite the locally asymmetric nature of methylation, large-scale patterns of methylation are symmetric. Methylated regions make up ~1% of the genome, and within these regions methylation of individual cytosines averages 2-10%. Methylation is concentrated in specific 5-base sequence motifs that are CA- and CT-rich but depleted of guanine. It is depleted from promoters, coding sequences, and most retrotransposons, and enriched in introns and in certain simple sequence repeats containing the commonly methylated motifs. Comparison with available gene expression data indicates that methylation in a gene is associated with lower expression; the X chromosome, which is subject to gene dosage compensation, is more densely methylated than the autosomes. This study firmly establishes the presence of cytosine methylation in Drosophila; the temporal overlap of methylation with the maternal-zygotic transition raises the possibility that methylation participates in the transition to zygotic gene expression.

Project description:This experiment was designed to investigate the epigenetic basis of sex chromosome dosage compensation. Such mechanisms often operate through epigenetic modifications, including histone modifications, which alter chromatin structure and gene expression. In Drosophila melanogaster, dosage compensation is achieved by upregulating the single X chromosome in males through acetylation of histone H4 at lysine 16 (H4K16ac). We therefore used D. melanogaster as a positive control to validate our approach. In contrast, the mechanism of dosage compensation in Bacillus grandii remains unknown. By profiling H4K16ac in this species, we aim to test whether this histone modification may have been convergently recruited to mediate dosage compensation.

This study firmly establishes the presence of cytosine methylation in Drosophila; the temporal overlap of methylation with the maternal-zygotic transition raises the possibility that methylation participates in the transition to zygotic gene expression. To enrich for rare cytosine methylation in Drosophila at embryonic Stage 5 (2-3 hours post-fertilization), we enriched sonicated Stage 5 genomic DNA for methylcytosine by immunoprecipitation with antibody to 5-methylcytosine. The immunoprecipitated DNA was then bisulfite converted and Illumina sequenced to obtain direct evidence for the presence of methylation. The presence and extent of DNA methylation was confirmed by Illumina sequencing of bisulfite-converted PCR amplicons.

Project description:A spectral library was built for Drosophila melanogaster. The spectral library allows reproducible quantification for thousands of peptides per SWATH-MS analysis.
Proteins from Drosophila melanogaster embryo, adult flies were digested with trypsin using in-gel digestion and the peptides were fractionated by high-pH reverse phase chromatography. HRM peptides were spiked into the peptides mixture and each fraction was injected on a Sciex TripleTOF 6600 mass spectrometer fitted with microflow set-up.
The resulting .wiff files were analysed using MaxQuant and Spectronaut.
