AbstractMuch has been learned about how plants acclimate to stressful environments, but the molecular basis of stress adaptation and the potential involvement of epigenetic regulation remain poorly understood. Here, we examined if salt stress induces mutagenesis in suspension cultured plant cells and if DNA methylation affects the mutagenesis using whole genome resequencing analysis. We generated suspension cell cultures from two Arabidopsis DNA methylation-deficient mutants and wild-type plants, and subjected the cultured cells to stepwise increases in salt stress intensity over 40 culture cycles. We show that ddc (drm1 drm2 cmt3) mutant cells can adapt to grow in 175 mM NaCl-containing growth medium and exhibit higher adaptability compared to wild type Col-0 and nrpe1 cells, which can adapt to grow in only 125 mM NaCl-containing growth medium. Salt treated nrpe1 and ddc cells but not wild type cells accumulate more mutations compared with their respective untreated cells. There is no enrichment of stress responsive genes in the list of mutated genes in salt treated cells compared to the list of mutated genes in untreated cells. Our results suggest that DNA methylation prevents the induction of mutagenesis by salt stress in plant cells during stress adaptation.

Abstract Despite the tremendous progress made in recent years in assembling the human genome, tandemly repeated DNA elements remain poorly characterized. These sequences account for the vast majority of methylated sites in the human genome and their methylated state is necessary for this repetitive DNA to function properly and to maintain genome integrity. Furthermore, recent advances highlight the emerging role of these sequences in regulating the functions of the human genome and its variability during evolution, among individuals, or in disease susceptibility. In addition, a number of inherited rare diseases are directly linked to the alteration of some of these repetitive DNA sequences, either through changes in the organization or size of the tandem repeat arrays or through mutations in genes encoding chromatin modifiers involved in the epigenetic regulation of these elements. Although largely overlooked so far in the functional annotation of the human genome, satellite elements play key roles in its architectural and topological organization. This includes functions as boundary elements delimitating functional domains or assembly of repressive nuclear compartments, with local or distal impact on gene expression. Thus, the consideration of satellite repeats organization and their associated epigenetic landmarks, including DNA methylation (DNAme), will become unavoidable in the near future to fully decipher human phenotypes and associated diseases.
