DNA methylation is a crucial epigenetic modification that plays a pivotal role in various biological processes. Although DNA methylation has been extensively studied for many years, most research has focused on traditional model organisms. Research on other species, especially invertebrates, remains relatively scarce. This study aimed to create a DNA methylation map for Nautilus pompilius, an ancient marine mollusk. First, homologous searches against N. pompilius genome identified key methyltransferases involved in DNA methylation: Dnmt1, Dnmt2 and Dnmt3. Then, whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS-seq) was used to gather information on DNA methylation in nautilus. Genome-wide methylation levels in nautilus are close to other invertebrates and a typical gene body methylation (gbM) was observed in nautilus. Characteristics of DNA methylation are largely conserved in nautilus compared to other invertebrates. The low methylation bias of the promoter and the first exon were also observed in nautilus. Overall, promoter methylation and gene body methylation may simultaneously affect gene expression in nautilus. Our research may contribute important information to the methylation map of invertebrates. |
