DNA methylation is globally reprogrammed during mammalian preimplantation development, which is critical for normal development. Recent reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) studies suggest that the methylome dynamics are essentially conserved between human and mouse early embryos. RRBS is known to cover 5–10% of all genomic CpGs, favoring those contained within CpG-rich regions. To obtain an unbiased and more complete representation of the methylome during early human development, we performed whole genome bisulfite sequencing of human gametes and blastocysts that covered>70% of all genomic CpGs. We found that the maternal genome was demethylated to a much lesser extent in human blastocysts than in mouse blastocysts, which could contribute to an increased number of imprinted differentially methylated regions in the human genome. Global demethylation of the paternal genome was confirmed, but SINE-VNTR-Alu elements and some other tandem repeat-containing regions were found to be specifically protected from this global demethylation. Furthermore, centromeric satellite repeats were hypermethylated in human oocytes but not in mouse oocytes, which might be explained by differential expression of de novo DNA methyltransferases. These data highlight both conserved and species-specific regulation of DNA methylation during early mammalian development. Our work provides further information critical for understanding the epigenetic processes underlying differentiation and pluripotency during early human development. DNA methylation reprogramming after fertilization is critical for normal mammalian development. Early embryos are sensitive to environmental stresses and a number of reports have pointed out the increased risk of DNA methylation errors associated with assisted reproduction technologies. Therefore, it is very important to understand normal DNA methylation patterns during early human development. Recent reduced representation bisulfite sequencing studies reported partial methylomes of human gametes and early embryos. To provide a more comprehensive view of DNA methylation dynamics during early human development, we report on whole genome bisulfite sequencing of human gametes and blastocysts. We show that the paternal genome is globally demethylated in blastocysts whereas the maternal genome is demethylated to a much lesser extent. We also reveal unique regulation of imprinted differentially methylated regions, gene bodies and repeat sequences during early human development. Our high-resolution methylome maps are essential to understand epigenetic reprogramming by human oocytes and will aid in the preimplantation epigenetic diagnosis of human embryos.
