Project description:Dimethylation of histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9m2) and trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27m3) are two hallmarks of transcriptional repression in many organisms. In Arabidopsis thaliana, H3K27m3 is targeted by Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins and is associated with silent protein coding genes, while H3K9m2 is correlated with DNA methylation and is associated with transposons and repetitive sequences. Recently, ectopic genic DNA methylation in the CHG context (where H is any base except G) has been observed in globally DNA hypomethylated mutants such as met1, but neither the nature of the hypermethylated loci nor the biological significance of this epigenetic phenomenon have been investigated. Here, we generated high-resolution genome-wide maps of both H3K9m2 and H3K27m3 in wild type and met1 plants, which we integrated with transcriptional data, to explore the relationships between these two marks. We found that most of the ectopic H3K9m2 observed in met1 is not due to defects in IBM1-mediated H3K9m2 demethylation, but instead targets H3K27m3-marked genes suggesting an interplay between these two silencing marks. Furthermore, H3K9m2/DNA-hypermethylation at these PcG targets in met1 is coupled with a decrease in H3K27m3 marks, whearas H3K9m2 hypomethylated transposons become ectopically H3K27me3 hypermethylated. Our results bear interesting similarities with cancer cells, which show global losses of DNA methylation, but ectopic hypermethylation of genes previously marked by H3K27m3.

Our results bear interesting similarities with cancer cells, which show global losses of DNA methylation, but ectopic hypermethylation of genes previously marked by H3K27m3. We used the met1-3 allele (Saze et al. 2003) and the salk_006042 line for isolating ibm1 mutants. met1-1st generation homozygous mutants and ibm1-1st generation homozygous mutants were isolated from a segragating population by genotyping. met1-2nd generation second mutants are the progeny of a single met1-1st generation homozygous mutant that was partially fertile. The entire shoots of 3 weeks old Arabidopsis plants (Col-0 ecotype), grown for 3 weeks under continuous light, were harvested, cross-linked as described in (Bernatavichute et al., 2007), frozen under liquid nitrogen and grown to powder (2g). Arabidopsis chromatin enriched for H3K9m2 and H3K27m3 was immunoprecipitated using an antibody that specifically recognizes H3K9m2 (Abcam 1220) and an antibody that specifically recognizes H3K27m3 (Upstate 07-449) respectively. Unmodified H3 was immunoprecipitated using Abcam 1791-100. Nucleosomal DNA and Input DNA were used as controls. ChIP, DNA purification and amplification were performed as in (Bernatavichute et al., 2007); Roche Nimblegen performed labelling and hybridization of the samples, washing and scanning resolution. All ChIP signals were normalized with either H3 ChIP or input genomic DNA by taking the log2 ratio and adjusted so that the average log2 ratio score across the genome was zero. 6 samples

Project description:Met1 type ubiquitination and deubiquitination are involved in the regulation of many fundamental processes such as inflammation and innate immunity, and their interference by pathogens can suppress immune responses in human cells. However, few plant-derived deubiquitinases (DUBs) against Met1 ubiquitin chains has been reported, and the selection mechanism for linkage-type of ubiquitin chains remains elusive, which greatly limits our understanding of the functions of plant-derived DUBs. Using a dehydroalanine (DHA)-bearing Met1 diubiquitin (Met1-diUb) suicide probe, synthesized in one-pot, we captured OTUB1 from Oryza sativa (OsOTUB1) and uncovered its ability to hydrolyze Met1 ubiquitin chains (Met1 activity). Further, by resolving the apo structure of OsOTUB1 and its complex with Met1-diUb, we found that Met1-specific motifs (N-handle motif and C-handle motif) in the S1’ pocket of OsOTUB1 confers its Met1 activity. Through large-scale sequence alignment and hydrolysis experiments, Met1-specific motifs in the S1' pocket of the OTUB subfamily (OTUBs) were found to determine the Met1 ability of OTUBs, regardless of species. Furthermore, by analyzing the species distribution of OTUBs capable of hydrolyzing Met1 ubiquitin chains, we found that whereas this activity does not exist in metazoans, it is conserved in green plants (Viridiplantae). This discovery may inform studies of the differentiation between primitive plants and animals.

Project description:To investigate the influence of heterochromatin on transposon transcription, we performed sequencing of RNA in wild type plant and met1 mutant which is defective in maintenance of CG context DNA methylation. The met1 mutant showed de-repression of centromeric transposons including Gypsy and EnSpm, which is coincident with increased meiotic DSBs and decreased nucleosome occupancy.
