    Abstract DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mark involved in gene regulation and silencing of transposable elements. The presence or absence of DNA methylation at specific sites can influence nearby gene expression and cause phenotypic changes that remain stable over generations. Recently, development of new technologies has enabled the targeted addition or removal of DNA methylation at specific sites of the genome. Of these new technologies, the targeting of the catalytic domain of Nicotiana tabacum DOMAINS REARRANGED METHYLTRANSFERASE 2 (ntDRM2cd) offers a promising tool for the addition of DNA methylation as it can directly methylate DNA. However, the methylation targeting efficiency of constructs using ntDRM2cd thus far has been relatively low. Previous studies have shown that the use of different promoters or terminators can greatly improve genome-editing efficiencies. In this study, we systematically survey a variety of promoter and terminator combinations to identify optimal combinations to use when targeting the addition of DNA methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana .

    Abstract Abstract Background The microrchidia (MORC) proteins are a family of evolutionarily conserved GHKL-type ATPases involved in chromatin compaction and gene silencing. Arabidopsis MORC proteins act in the RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) pathway, where they act as molecular tethers to ensure the efficient establishment of RdDM and de novo gene silencing. However, MORC proteins also have RdDM-independent functions although their underlying mechanisms are unknown. Results In this study, we examine MORC binding regions where RdDM does not occur in order to shed light on the RdDM-independent functions of MORC proteins. We find that MORC proteins compact chromatin and reduce DNA accessibility to transcription factors, thereby repressing gene expression. We also find that MORC-mediated repression of gene expression is particularly important under conditions of stress. MORC-regulated transcription factors can in some cases regulate their own transcription, resulting in feedback loops. Conclusions Our findings provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of MORC-mediated chromatin compaction and transcription regulation.

    Abstract Abstract MORPHEUS’ MOLECULE1 (MOM1) is an Arabidopsis factor previously shown to mediate transcriptional silencing independent of major DNA methylation changes. Here we find that MOM1 localizes with sites of RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). Tethering MOM1 with an artificial zinc finger to an unmethylated FWA promoter leads to establishment of DNA methylation and FWA silencing. This process is blocked by mutations in components of the Pol V arm of the RdDM machinery, as well as by mutation of MICRORCHIDIA 6 (MORC6). We find that at some endogenous RdDM sites, MOM1 is required to maintain DNA methylation and a closed chromatin state. In addition, efficient silencing of newly introduced FWA transgenes is impaired in the mom1 mutant. In addition to RdDM sites, we identify a group of MOM1 peaks at active chromatin near genes that colocalized with MORC6. These findings demonstrate a multifaceted role of MOM1 in genome regulation.

    Abstract Abstract The PIWI (P-element-induced wimpy testis)-interacting-RNA (piRNA) pathway plays a crucial role in the repression of TE (transposable element) expression via de novo DNA methylation in mouse embryonic male germ cells. Various proteins, including MIWI2 are involved in the process. TE silencing is ensured by piRNA-guided MIWI2 that recruits some effector proteins of the DNA methylation machinery to TE regions. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the methylation is complex and has not been fully elucidated. Here, we identified MORC3 as a novel associating partner of MIWI2 and also a nuclear effector of retrotransposon silencing via piRNA-dependent de novo DNA methylation in embryonic testis. Moreover, we show that MORC3 is important for transcription of piRNA precursors and subsequently affects piRNA production. Thus, we provide the first mechanistic insights into the role of this effector protein in the first stage of piRNA biogenesis in embryonic TE silencing mechanism.

    Abstract T-DNA mutants have been widely used for Arabidopsis gene function characterization. Here, by characterizing a null mutant created by CRISPR, the authors show that previous reported function of H2A.W is confounded by a T-DNA insertion induced chromosomal rearrangement and reveal its role in regulating heterochromatin accessibility.
