Comprehensive Whole DNA Methylome Analysis by Integrating MeDIP-seq and MRE-seq.

Methods Mol Biol. 2018;1708:209-246

Authors: Xing X, Zhang B, Li D, Wang T

Abstract
Understanding the role of DNA methylation often requires accurate assessment and comparison of these modifications in a genome-wide fashion. Sequencing-based DNA methylation profiling provides an unprecedented opportunity to map and compare complete DNA CpG methylomes. These include whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS), Reduced-Representation Bisulfite-Sequencing (RRBS), and enrichment-based methods such as MeDIP-seq, MBD-seq, and MRE-seq. An investigator needs a method that is flexible with the quantity of input DNA, provides the appropriate balance among genomic CpG coverage, resolution, quantitative accuracy, and cost, and comes with robust bioinformatics software for analyzing the data. In this chapter, we describe four protocols that combine state-of-the-art experimental strategies with state-of-the-art computational algorithms to achieve this goal. We first introduce two experimental methods that are complementary to each other. MeDIP-seq, or methylation-dependent immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing, uses an anti-methylcytidine antibody to enrich for methylated DNA fragments, and uses massively parallel sequencing to reveal identity of enriched DNA. MRE-seq, or methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme digestion followed by sequencing, relies on a collection of restriction enzymes that recognize CpG containing sequence motifs, but only cut when the CpG is unmethylated. Digested DNA fragments enrich for unmethylated CpGs at their ends, and these CpGs are revealed by massively parallel sequencing. The two computational methods both implement advanced statistical algorithms that integrate MeDIP-seq and MRE-seq data. M&M is a statistical framework to detect differentially methylated regions between two samples. methylCRF is a machine learning framework that predicts CpG methylation levels at single CpG resolution, thus raising the resolution and coverage of MeDIP-seq and MRE-seq to a comparable level of WGBS, but only incurring a cost of less than 5% of WGBS. Together these methods form an effective, robust, and affordable platform for the investigation of genome-wide DNA methylation.

The hypoxia-tolerant vertebrate brain: Arresting synaptic activity.

Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol. 2017 Dec 06;:

Authors: Buck LT, Pamenter ME

Abstract
The ion channel arrest hypothesis has been the foundation of three decades of research into the underlying mechanisms of hypoxia/anoxia tolerance in several key species, including: painted turtles, goldfish, crucian carp, naked mole rats, and arctic and ground squirrels. The hypothesis originally stated that hypoxia/anoxia tolerant species ought to have fewer ion channels per area membrane and/or mechanisms to regulate the permeability of ions through channels. Today we can add to this and include mechanisms to remove channels from membranes and the expression of low conductance isoforms. Furthermore, possible oxygen sensing mechanisms in brain include a link to mitochondrial function, changes in the concentration of intracellular Ca2+ and reactive oxygen species, and activation of protein kinase C and a phosphatase. Importantly ion channel arrest leads to a decrease in metabolic rate that is fundamental to survival without oxygen and in brain is reflected in decreased action potential frequency or spike arrest. This results not only from a decrease in excitatory glutamatergic receptor currents but also by an increase in inhibitory GABAergic receptor currents. The surprising finding that ionic conductance through some ion channels increases is novel and contrary to the ion channel arrest hypothesis. The major insight that this offers is that key regulatory events are occurring at the level of the synapse and we therefore propose the "synaptic arrest hypothesis".

The Kalanchoë genome provides insights into convergent evolution and building blocks of crassulacean acid metabolism.

Abstract
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a water-use efficient adaptation of photosynthesis that has evolved independently many times in diverse lineages of flowering plants. We hypothesize that convergent evolution of protein sequence and temporal gene expression underpins the independent emergences of CAM from C3 photosynthesis. To test this hypothesis, we generate a de novo genome assembly and genome-wide transcript expression data for Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi, an obligate CAM species within the core eudicots with a relatively small genome (~260 Mb). Our comparative analyses identify signatures of convergence in protein sequence and re-scheduling of diel transcript expression of genes involved in nocturnal CO2 fixation, stomatal movement, heat tolerance, circadian clock, and carbohydrate metabolism in K. fedtschenkoi and other CAM species in comparison with non-CAM species. These findings provide new insights into molecular convergence and building blocks of CAM and will facilitate CAM-into-C3 photosynthesis engineering to enhance water-use efficiency in crops.

Spindle-to-Cortex Communication in Cleaving Frog Eggs.

Cold Spring Harb Symp Quant Biol. 2017 Dec 01;:

Authors: Mitchison TJ, Field CM

Abstract
During cytokinesis, the mitotic spindle communicates with the cell cortex to position a cleavage furrow that will cut through the cell in the plane defined by the metaphase plate. We investigated the molecular basis of this communication in Xenopus laevis eggs, where the signal has to travel ∼400 µm in ∼30 min to reach the cortex from the first anaphase spindle. At anaphase onset, huge microtubule asters grow out from the poles of the spindle and meet at the plane previously defined by the metaphase plate. This disc-shaped boundary plane recruits the chromosome passenger complex (CPC) and centralspindlin to antiparallel microtubule bundles. It grows out to the cell cortex as the asters expand, where it induces the furrow. CPC and centralspindlin were not recruited to boundaries between asters from different spindles, suggesting a role of chromatin in triggering the CPC-positive state. Recruitment of CPC to aster boundaries was reconstituted in an extract system, and we observed that recruitment was stimulated by proximity to chromatin. Finally, we discuss models for molecular processes involved in initiation and growth of the CPC-positive disc that communicates the position of the metaphase plate to the cortex over hundreds of micrometers in frog eggs.
