AB  - Introduction: DNA methylation is a major regulator of transcriptional activity and alongside other epigenetic modifications it introduces specific level of chromatin complexity. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a rapid, non-destructive, and label-free technique for identifying subtle changes in all bio-macromolecules, and it has been used as a method of choice for studying DNA conformation. The present study was designed to explore the use of synchrotron-based FTIR spectroscopy to monitor the subtle changes on molecular level regarding the DNA methylation status of cytosine in the whole genome.
Methods: For FTIR-based DNA methylation analysis in situ, DNA-HALO samples were prepared using slightly modified methodology for nuclear HALO preparations where DNA-HALOs are liberated of any protein residues but preserve higher order chromatin structure.
Results: Using FTIR spectroscopy we analysed and compared methylation profiles of isolated genomic DNA and DNA-HALO samples. DNA-HALO structure shows more distinct peaks in fingerprint region of spectra. DNA-HALO structure is more accurate for detecting bonds in unmemthylated cytosine as specific infrared peaks are defined as vibrations of bonds in unmethylated cytosine at 1151 cm-1 and 1357 cm-1. The ratio of integrated area under the peak 1151 cm-1 over integrated area under the peak that represents PO2-backbone vibrations can be used to assess level of unmethylated cytosine and thus methylation rate in the DNA-HALO samples.
Conclusion: This study demonstrates potential of FTIR spectroscopy to detect DNA methylation in DNA-HALO samples more precisely compared to classical DNA extraction procedure that yield unstructured whole genomic DNA.

AB  - Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a rapid, non-destructive and label-free technique for identifying subtle changes in all bio-macromolecules, and has been used as a method of choice for studying DNA conformation, secondary DNA structure transition and DNA damage. In addition, the specific level of chromatin complexity is introduced via epigenetic modifications forcing the technological upgrade in the analysis of such an intricacy. As the most studied epigenetic mechanism, DNA methylation is a major regulator of transcriptional activity, involved in the suppression of a broad spectrum of genes and its deregulation is involved in all non-communicable diseases. The present study was designed to explore the use of synchrotron-based FTIR analysis to monitor the subtle changes in molecule bases regarding the DNA methylation status of cytosine in the whole genome. In order to reveal the conformation-related best sample for FTIR-based DNA methylation analysis in situ, we used methodology for nuclear HALO preparations and slightly modified it to isolated DNA in HALO formations. Nuclear DNA-HALOs represent samples with preserved higher-order chromatin structure liberated of any protein residues that are closer to native DNA conformation than genomic DNA (gDNA) isolated by the standard batch procedure. Using FTIR spectroscopy we analyzed the DNA methylation profile of isolated gDNA and compared it with the DNA-HALOs. This study demonstrated the potential of FTIR microspectroscopy to detect DNA methylation marks in analyzed DNA-HALO specimens more precisely in comparison with classical DNA extraction procedures that yield unstructured whole genomic DNA. In addition, we used different cell types to assess their global DNA methylation profile, as well as defined specific infrared peaks that can be used for screening DNA methylation.

AB  - Double-strand deoxyribonucleic acid (dsDNA) carries the genetic information needed for normal development, growth, survival and reproduction of all living beings (except RNA viruses and other potential DNA-less microorganisms). On top of it, epigenetic processes orchestrate the cell type-specific use of the genetic information essential for normal development and for maintaining the overall integrity of the genome. The alteration of epigenetic marks (e.g. DNA methylation patterns) by hyperglycaemia, oxidative stress and inflammation may have potential epigenetic impacts on gene regulation in diabetic individuals. We used the Fourier transform-infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy (ALBA synchrotron, Cerdanyola del valles, Spain) for qualitative spectral analysis of DNA from mouse fibroblast cells (NIH3T3) and the same cells treated with demetilating agent 5-azacytidine (5-aza). FTIR spectroscopy has the advantage of generating structural information of the entire DNA molecule in a single spectrum, including possible conformational sub-states, present in the sample (methylated/nonmethylated cytosine). The technique is ideal for systematic studies of DNA/RNA sequence variations and covalent modifications, since it is non-destructive and requires only small sample amounts. The FTIR region of interest when studying nucleic acids is 1800–900 cm-1.We obtained the global information regarding the DNA profiles in NIH3T3 with and without 5-aza treatment by FTIR spectroscopy. Some differences in DNA methylation profiles between examined cell lines were qualitatively described by FTIR spectroscopy and compared with restriction analysis method. Using FTIR spectroscopy the most interesting picks were observed approximately at wavelength: 2960-2850 cm-1, 1400-900 cm-1 and 1150 cm-1. These results are in the same time a verification of the proof of principle for synchrotron-based FTIR micro-spectroscopic detection of the differences in the DNA methylation profiles in cells.
