DNA methylation-free Arabidopsis reveals crucial roles of DNA methylation in regulating gene expression and plant development

Project description:A contribution of DNA methylation to defense against invading nucleic acids and maintenance of genome integrity is uncontested; however, the relevance of this epigenetic mark for genome-wide gene regulation and plant development is unclear. Here, we knocked out all five known DNA methyltransferases in Arabidopsis, generating DNA methylation-free plants. This quintuple mutant exhibits a suite of unique and extreme developmental defects, unequivocally demonstrating that DNA methylation is essential for normal plant development. We show that CG methylation or non-CG methylation alone or jointly control multiple biological processes, including pavement cell shape, endoreduplication, cell death, flowering, trichome morphology, vasculature and meristem development, and root cell fate determination. Moreover, we found that DNA methylation has a strong dose-dependent effect in the regulation of gene expression and the repression of transposable element movement. Thus, our results demonstrate crucial roles of DNA methylation in orchestrating plant development and provide new insights into the function of this epigenetic mark in regulating gene expression in higher eukaryotes.

DNA methylation-free Arabidopsis reveals crucial roles of DNA methylation in regulating gene expression and development.

Project description:A contribution of DNA methylation to defense against invading nucleic acids and maintenance of genome integrity is uncontested; however, our understanding of the extent of involvement of this epigenetic mark in genome-wide gene regulation and plant developmental control is incomplete. Here, we knock out all five known DNA methyltransferases in Arabidopsis, generating DNA methylation-free plants. This quintuple mutant exhibits a suite of developmental defects, unequivocally demonstrating that DNA methylation is essential for multiple aspects of plant development. We show that CG methylation and non-CG methylation are required for a plethora of biological processes, including pavement cell shape, endoreduplication, cell death, flowering, trichome morphology, vasculature and meristem development, and root cell fate determination. Moreover, we find that DNA methylation has a strong dose-dependent effect on gene expression and repression of transposable elements. Taken together, our results demonstrate that DNA methylation is dispensable for Arabidopsis survival but essential for the proper regulation of multiple biological processes.

Diverse Roles of Arabidopsis ROS1 in Regulating Chromatin Accessibility and DNA Methylation [Bisulfite-Seq]

Project description:Over two decades after the discovery of ROS1 as the first eukaryotic DNA demethylase, its genome-wide binding sites and functions beyond active DNA demethylation remain unknown. Here, using advanced ChIP-seq, we reveal that ROS1 specifically occupies nearly all accessible chromatin and dynamically correlates with changes in chromatin accessibility across tissues, establishing it as a marker of accessible chromatin. Furthermore, we demonstrate that ROS1 maintains DNA hypomethylation through an occupancy-based mechanism that prevents the recruitment of RNA-directed DNA methylation, distinct from its active DNA demethylation. Additionally, ROS1 plays a regulatory role in chromatin accessibility, both independently and in cooperation with other epigenetic regulators. This regulation occurs in both DNA methylation-dependent and independent contexts, with ROS1 functioning as a potential or actual protector of accessible chromatin, depending on the presence and targeting of DNA methylation systems. Our results provide a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory roles of ROS1 in chromatin accessibility and DNA methylation, highlighting the intricate crosstalk between these mechanisms.

DNA methylation dynamics play crucial roles in shaping the distinct transcriptomic profiles for different root-type initiation in rice

Project description:Monocots possess a fibrous root system comprising an embryonic root (ER), crown roots (CR), and lateral roots (LR), which share striking similarities in adult anatomical structures and functions across the three root types. Nonetheless, their distinct cellular origins highlight the diversity of the initiation mechanism. Through our study, we conducted a comprehensive transcriptome and DNA methylome assay of these root types during their initiation. Our findings indicated significant divergence in transcriptome regulation trajectories with apparent transcriptional activation in post-embryonic root initials (CR and LR) contrasted by suppression in embryonic root (ER) generation. Additionally, CHH methylation was found dynamically and differentially regulated across the initiation stages of the various root types, and significantly associated with the short transposon element within the promoter regions of functional genes, which played crucial roles in determining the genes’ spatiotemporal transcription. Moreover, our work revealed that the activation of DNG702 and repression of DRM2 played important roles in the erasure of CHH methylation and activation of functional genes during the processes, such as a novel identified key regulatory bZip65, thus directly impacting the initiation of post-embryonic roots in rice. In conclusion, our extensive analysis delineates the landscapes of spatiotemporal transcriptomes and DNA methylomes during the initiation of the three root types in rice, shedding light on the pivotal role of CHH methylation in the spatiotemporal regulation of various key genes, ensuring the successful initiation of distinct root types in rice.

Photorespiration is linked to DNA methylation by formate as one-carbon source.

Project description:DNA methylation is a key epigenetic modification regulating genome organization, stability, and gene expression. Stable DNA methylation critically relies on methyl groups provided through folate-mediated one-carbon (C1) metabolism, yet the origin and regulation of C1 supply remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that photorespiration serves as a major C1 source for DNA methylation in Arabidopsis. We show that C1 from formate, a photorespiratory byproduct, is incorporated into 5-methyl-cytosine via the reductive cytosolic folate pathway. This occurs predominantly during the day, negatively regulating serine utilization as alternative C1 source. Consequently, suppression of photorespiration under elevated CO₂ levels alters the DNA methylation landscape, an effect exacerbated when regulation of C1 metabolism by the formate-dependent pathway is impaired. Thus, our findings link the fundamental metabolic process of photorespiration to epigenetic stability, highlighting how rising atmospheric CO₂ levels can induce DNA methylation changes.
