Repeat associated mechanisms of genome evolution and function revealed by the Mus caroli and Mus pahari genomes.

چکیده
Understanding the mechanisms driving lineage-specific evolution in both primates and rodents has been hindered by the lack of sister clades with a similar phylogenetic structure having high-quality genome assemblies. Here, we have created chromosome-level assemblies of the Mus caroli and Mus pahari genomes. Together with the Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus genomes, this set of rodent genomes is similar in divergence times to the Hominidae (human-chimpanzee-gorilla-orangutan). By comparing the evolutionary dynamics between the Muridae and Hominidae, we identified punctate events of chromosome reshuffling that shaped the ancestral karyotype of Mus musculus and Mus caroli between 3 and 6 million yr ago, but that are absent in the Hominidae. Hominidae show between four- and sevenfold lower rates of nucleotide change and feature turnover in both neutral and functional sequences, suggesting an underlying coherence to the Muridae acceleration. Our system of matched, high-quality genome assemblies revealed how specific classes of repeats can play lineage-specific roles in related species. Recent LINE activity has remodeled protein-coding loci to a greater extent across the Muridae than the Hominidae, with functional consequences at the species level such as reproductive isolation. Furthermore, we charted a Muridae-specific retrotransposon expansion at unprecedented resolution, revealing how a single nucleotide mutation transformed a specific SINE element into an active CTCF binding site carrier specifically in Mus caroli, which resulted in thousands of novel, species-specific CTCF binding sites. Our results show that the comparison of matched phylogenetic sets of genomes will be an increasingly powerful strategy for understanding mammalian biology.

Functional respiratory chain analyses in murid xenomitochondrial cybrids expose coevolutionary constraints of cytochrome b and nuclear subunits of complex III.
The large number of extant Muridae species provides the opportunity of investigating functional limits of nuclear/mitochondrial respiratory chain (RC) subunit interactions by introducing mitochondrial genomes from progressively more divergent species into Mus musculus domesticus mtDNA-less (rho0) cells. We created a panel of such xenomitochondrial cybrids, using as mitochondrial donors cells fr...
متن کاملTempo and mode of concerted evolution in the L1 repeat family of mice.
A 300-bp DNA sequence has been determined for 30 (10 from each of three species of mice) random isolates of a subset of the long interspersed repeat family L1. From these data we conclude that members of the L1 family are evolving in concert at the DNA sequence level in Mus domesticus, Mus caroli, and Mus platythrix. The mechanism responsible for this phenomenon may be either duplicative transp...
متن کاملEarly events in retrovirus XMRV infection of the wild-derived mouse Mus pahari.
A novel gammaretrovirus, xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV), has been identified in patients with prostate cancer and in patients with chronic fatigue syndromes. Standard Mus musculus laboratory mice lack a functional XPR1 receptor for XMRV and are therefore not a suitable model for the virus. In contrast, Gairdner's shrew-mice (Mus pahari) do express functional XPR1. To dete...
متن کاملL1 gene conversion or same-site transposition.
DNA sequence analysis of the same chromosomal region from two haplotypes of Mus musculus and from the related species M. caroli and M. pahari reveals the presence of long interspersed sequence one (LINES-1, or L1) elements residing at the same nucleotide position in the two most distantly related of the species (M. musculus and M. pahari). The DNA sequence of each of these L1 elements is more s...
متن کاملSomatic and germline mosaicism in interspecific chimaeras between Mus musculus and Mus caroli.
Detailed analysis of mosaicism in interspecific chimaeras between Mus musculus and Mus caroli revealed that cells of the two species could coexist and interact normally in all tissues studied. No selection occurred against M. caroli cells during gestation of chimaeras in the M. musculus uterus, but some tissue-specific differential growth of M. musculus and M. caroli cells occurred during postn...
