    Abstract 5-methylcytosine (5mC) is a gene-regulatory mark associated with transcriptional repression. 5mC can be erased through the catalytic action of Ten-eleven translocation (TET) methylcytosine dioxygenases (TET1, TET2, TET3), which oxidize 5mC resulting in its removal from the genome. In vertebrates, TET enzymes facilitate DNA demethylation of regulatory regions linked to genes involved in developmental processes. Consequently, TET ablation leads to severe morphological defects and developmental arrest. Here we describe a system that can facilitate the study of relationships between TET enzymes, 5mC, and embryo development. We provide detailed descriptions for the generation of F0 zebrafish tet1/2/3 knockouts using CRISPR/Cas9 technology and elaborate on the strategies to assess the impact of TET loss by reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS).

    Abstract 5-Methylcytosine (5mC) is one of the most abundant and well-studied chemical DNA modifications of vertebrate genomes. 5mC plays an essential role in genome regulation including: silencing of retroelements, X chromosome inactivation, and heterochromatin stability. Furthermore, 5mC shapes the activity of cis-regulatory elements crucial for cell fate determination. TET enzymes can oxidize 5mC to form 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), thereby adding an additional layer of complexity to the DNA methylation landscape dynamics. The advent of techniques enabling genome-wide 5hmC profiling provided critical insights into its genomic distribution, scope, and function. These methods include immunoprecipitation, chemical labeling and capture-based approaches, as well as single-nucleotide 5hmC profiling techniques such as TET-assisted bisulfite sequencing (TAB-seq) and APOBEC-coupled epigenetic sequencing (ACE-seq). Here we provide a detailed protocol for computational analysis required for the genomic alignment of TAB-seq and ACE-seq data, 5hmC calling, and statistical analysis.

    Abstract In vertebrates, cytosine-guanine (CpG) dinucleotides are predominantly methylated, with ∼80% of all CpG sites containing 5-methylcytosine (5mC), a repressive mark associated with long-term gene silencing. The exceptions to such a globally hypermethylated state are CpG-rich DNA sequences called CpG islands (CGIs), which are mostly hypomethylated relative to the bulk genome. CGIs overlap promoters from the earliest vertebrates to humans, indicating a concerted evolutionary drive compatible with CGI retention. CGIs are characterised by DNA sequence features that include DNA hypomethylation, elevated CpG and GC content and the presence of transcription factor binding sites. These sequence characteristics are congruous with the recruitment of transcription factors and chromatin modifying enzymes, and transcriptional activation in general. CGIs colocalize with sites of transcriptional initiation in hypermethylated vertebrate genomes, however, a growing body of evidence indicates that CGIs might exert their gene regulatory function in other genomic contexts. In this review, we discuss the diverse regulatory features of CGIs, their functional readout, and the evolutionary implications associated with CGI retention in vertebrates and possibly in invertebrates.

    Abstract Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) is currently the gold standard for DNA methylation (5-methylcytosine, 5mC) profiling; however, the destructive nature of sodium bisulfite results in DNA fragmentation and subsequent biases in sequencing data. Such issues have led to the development of bisulfite-free methods for 5mC detection. Nanopore sequencing is a long read nondestructive approach that directly analyzes DNA and RNA fragments in real time. Recently, computational tools have been developed that enable base-resolution detection of 5mC from Oxford Nanopore sequencing data. In this chapter, we provide a detailed protocol for preparation, sequencing, read assembly, and analysis of genome-wide 5mC using Nanopore sequencing technologies.

    Abstract DNA methylation involves the addition of a methyl group to the fifth carbon of the pyrimidine cytosine ring (5-methylcytosine, 5mC). 5mC is widespread in vertebrate genomes where it is predominantly found within CpG dinucleotides. In mammals, 5mC participates in long-term silencing processes such as X-chromosome inactivation, genomic imprinting, somatic silencing of germline genes, and silencing of repetitive DNA elements. The evidence for 5mC as a dynamic gene-regulatory mechanism is mostly limited to specific examples, and is far from being completely understood. Recent work from diverse model systems suggests that 5mC might not always act as a dominant repressive mechanism and that hypermethylated promoters and enhancers can be permissive to transcription in vivo and in vitro. In this review, we discuss the links between 5mC and enhancer activity, and evaluate the role of this biochemical mechanism in various biological contexts.

    Abstract DNA methylation predominantly occurs at CG dinucleotides in vertebrate genomes; however, non-CG methylation (mCH) is also detectable in vertebrate tissues, most notably in the nervous system. In mammals it is well established that mCH is targeted to CAC trinucleotides by DNMT3A during nervous system development where it is enriched in gene bodies and associated with transcriptional repression. Nevertheless, the conservation of developmental mCH accumulation and its deposition by DNMT3A is largely unexplored and has yet to be functionally demonstrated in other vertebrates. In this study, by analyzing DNA methylomes and transcriptomes of zebrafish brains, we identified enrichment of mCH at CAC trinucleotides (mCAC) at defined transposon motifs as well as in developmentally downregulated genes associated with developmental and neural functions. We further generated and analyzed DNA methylomes and transcriptomes of developing zebrafish larvae and demonstrated that, like in mammals, mCH accumulates during post-embryonic brain development. Finally, by employing CRISPR/Cas9 technology, we unraveled a conserved role for Dnmt3a enzymes in developmental mCAC deposition. Overall, this work demonstrates the evolutionary conservation of developmental mCH dynamics and highlights the potential of zebrafish as a model to study mCH regulation and function during normal and perturbed development.
