Project description:Multiple epigenetic pathways underlie the temporal order of DNA replication (replication timing) in the context of development and disease. DNA methylation by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and downstream chromatin reorganization and transcriptional changes are thought to impact DNA replication, yet this remains to be comprehensively tested. Using cell biological and genome-wide approaches to measure replication timing, we identified a number of genomic regions undergoing subtle but reproducible replication timing changes in various DNMT-mutant mouse ES cell lines that include a line with a drug-inducible DNMT3a2 expression system. Replication timing within pericentromeric heterochromatin (PH) correlates with redistribution of H3K27me3 induced upon DNA hypomethylation: later replicating PH coincides with H3K27me3 enriched regions. In contrast, this relationship with H3K27me3 was not evident at chromosomal arm regions that undergo either early-to-late (EtoL) or late-to-early (LtoE) replication timing switching upon loss of DNMTs. Interestingly, transcriptional up- and down-regulation frequently coincide with earlier and later shifts in replication timing of chromosomal arm regions, respectively. Our study revealed previously unrecognized complex and diverse roles of DNMTs in shaping the mammalian DNA replication landscape. We investigated the effect of Dnmt3a2 expression in the transcription profile of Dnmt3a and 3b double knockout (DKO) ES cells.

Project description:We report the generation of CRISPR-dCas9 DNA methyltransferases to mediate targeted DNA methylation. Using the dCas9-BFP-DNMT3A and dCas9-BFP-DNMT3B methyltransferases, we have demonstrated that these two methyltransferase can mediate targeted methylation in three human genes tested: uPA, TGFBR3, and CDKN2A in human HEK293T cells. We also showed that these methyltransferases could mediate gene inhibition. five samples co-transfected with five uPA sgRNAs and each of the four dCas9 fusions, or control transfection with pUC19 plasmid

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification associated with transcriptional repression of promoters and is essential for mammalian development. Establishment of DNA methylation is mediated by the de novo DNA methyltransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B, whereas DNMT1 ensures maintenance of methylation through replication. Absence of these enzymes is lethal, and somatic mutations in these genes have been associated with several human diseases. How genomic DNA methylation patterns are regulated remains poorly understood, as the mechanisms that guide recruitment and activity of DNMTs in vivo are largely unknown. To gain insights into this matter we determined chromosomal binding and site-specific activity of the mammalian de novo DNA methyltransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B. We show that both enzymes localize to methylated, CpG dense regions in mouse stem cells, yet are excluded from active promoters and enhancers. By specifically measuring sites of de novo methylation, we observe that enzymatic activity reflects chromosomal binding. De novo methylation increases with CpG density, yet is excluded from nucleosomes. Notably, we observed selective binding of DNMT3B to the bodies of transcribed genes, which leads to their preferential methylation. This targeting to transcribed sequences requires SETD2-mediated methylation of lysine 36 on histone H3 and a functional PWWP domain of DNMT3B. Together these findings reveal how sequence and chromatin cues guide de novo methyltransferase activity to ensure methylome integrity. Refer to individual Series
