Project description:This experiment is part of the FunGenES project (FunGenES - Functional Genomics in Embryonic Stem Cells partially funded by the 6th Framework Programme of the European Union, http://www.fungenes.org). The experiment was conducted at Inserm U846, Bron, France. Aim: Kru_ppel-like factors (Klf) 4 and 5 are two closely related members of the Klf family, known to play key roles in somatic cell reprogramming and in self-renewal of pluripotent stem cells. In this study, we focused on the functional divergence between Klf4 and Klf5. We showed that Klf4 and Klf5 regulate the expression of distinct subsets of genes. Klf4 negatively regulates the expression of endodermal markers, some of which encode transcription factors involved in the commitment of pluripotent system cells to endoderm differentiation. In contrast, Klf5 negatively regulates the expression of mesodermal markers, some of which controls commitment to the mesoderm lineage. Functional studies with reporter cell lines indicate that knockdown of Klf4 enhances differentiation toward visceral endoderm, mesendoderm, and definitive endoderm, whereas knockdown of Klf5 specifically enhances differentiation toward mesoderm. Thus, additive functions of Klf4 and Klf5 secure pluripotent stem cell propagation by inhibiting endoderm and mesoderm differentiation.

Project description:We show here by using genome-wide ChIP-sequencing that lineage segregation involves multiple Sox/Oct partnership. In undifferentiated ES cells Oct4 interacts with Sox2 and both TFs bind on the 'canonical' motif, whereas in cells commited to PrE lineage Oct4 switches from Sox2 to Sox17 interaction and this complex bind to a unique "compressed" motif. ChIP-sequencing has been done for Sox2, Sox17 and Oct4 in the pluripotent context or PrE context

Project description:The Polycomb group proteins are repressive chromatin modifiers with essential roles in metazoan development, cellular differentiation and cell fate maintenance. How Polycomb proteins access active chromatin in order to confer transcriptional silencing during lineage transitions remains unclear. Here we show that the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) component PHF19 binds the active chromatin mark H3K36me3 via its tudor domain. PHF19 associates with the H3K36me3 demethylase NO66, and is required to recruit the PRC2 complex and NO66 to stem cells genes during differentiation, leading to PRC2 mediated H3K27 tri-methylation, loss of H3K36me3 and transcriptional silencing. We propose a model whereby PHF19 functions during ES cell differentiation to transiently bind the H3K36me3 mark via its tudor domain, forming essential contact points that allow recruitment of PRC2 and H3K36me3 demethylase activity to active gene loci during their transition to a Polycomb-repressed state.

Project description:Embryonic stem (ES) cells derived from the inner cell mass (ICM) of blastocysts are characterised by their ability to self-renew and their potential to differentiate into many different cell types. Recent studies have shown that zinc finger proteins are crucial for maintaining pluripotent ES cells. Mouse zinc finger protein 322a (Zfp322a) is expressed in the ICM of early mouse embryos. However, little is known regarding the role of Zfp322a in the pluripotentcy maintenance of ES cells. Here, we report that Zfp322a is required for ES cell identity since depletion of Zfp322a directs ES cells towards differentiation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and dual-luciferase reporter assays revealed that Zfp322a binds to Oct4 and Nanog promoters and regulates their transcription. These data along with the results obtained from our ChIP-seq experiment showed that Zfp322a is an essential component of the ES cell transcription regulatory network. Targets which are directly regulated by Zfp322a were identified by correlating the gene expression profile of Zfp322a RNAi-treated ES cells with the ChIP-seq results. These experiments revealed that Zfp322a inhibits ES cell differentiation by suppressing MAPK pathway. Additionally, Zfp322a is found to be a novel reprogramming factor that can replace Sox2 in the classical Yamanaka’s factors (OSKM). It can be even used in combination with Yamanaka’s factors and that addition leads to a higher reprogramming efficiency and to acceleration of the onset of the reprogramming process. Together, our results demonstrate that Zfp322a is a novel essential component of the transcription factor network which maintains the identity of ES cells. E14 mES cells were immunoprecipitated with Zfp322a antibody or IgG from rabbit.

Project description:Here we show that T-box proteins team up with chromatin modifying enzymes to drive the expression of the key lineage regulator, Eomes during endodermal differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. The Eomes locus is maintained in a transcriptionally poised configuration in ES cells. During early differentiation steps, the ES cell factor Tbx3 associates with the histone demethylase Jmjd3 at the enhancer element of the Eomes locus to allow enhancer-promoter interactions. This spatial reorganization of the chromatin primes the cells to respond to Activin signaling, which promotes the binding of Jmjd3 and Eomes to its own bivalent promoter region to further stimulate Eomes expression in a positive feedback loop.

Project description:CTCF and CTCFL DNA binding profile in CTCFL induced and non-induced ES cells.CTCF is a highly conserved and essential zinc finger protein that in conjunction with cohesin organizes chromatin into loops, thereby regulating gene expression and epigenetic events. The function of CTCFL or BORIS, the testis-specific paralogue of CTCF, is less clear. Here, we show that CTCFL is only transiently present during spermatogenesis, prior to the onset of meiosis, when the protein co-localizes in nuclei with ubiquitously expressed CTCF. Our data show that CTCFL is functionally different from CTCF and its absence in mice causes sub-fertility due to a partially penetrant testicular atrophy. Genome-wide studies reveal that CTCFL and CTCF bind similar consensus sequences. However, only ~2000 out of the ~5,700 CTCFL and ~31,000 CTCF binding sites overlap. CTCFL binds promoters with loosely assembled nucleosomes, whereas CTCF favors consensus sites surrounded by phased nucleosomes. Thus, nucleosome dynamics specifies the genome-wide binding of CTCFL and CTCF. We propose that the transient expression of CTCFL in spermatogonia and preleptotene spermatocytes serves to occupy a subset of promoters and maintain the expression of male germ cell genes ChIP-seq for CTCF (with CTCF antibody) and CTCFL (with V5 antibody) in CTCFL_V5_GFP induced and non-induced ES cells

Project description:The Nodal/Activin morphogens are secreted signaling molecules that form concentration gradients during early embryogenesis providing stem cells with positional information and differentiation instructions important for embryonic patterning. The molecular basis driving stem cell interpretation of signaling gradients and the undertaking of distinct cell fate decisions remains poorly understood. We show that perturbation of endogenous Nodal/Activin signaling in ES cells leads to exit from self renewal towards mesendodermal differentiation at high signaling and trophectoderm induction during low signaling. ChIP-seq of Phospho-Smad2, the downstream transcription factor of the Nodal/Activin pathway reveals binding to distinct subsets of target genes in a dose dependent manner including the promoter region of the Oct4 master regulator of stemness. Consequently, both Oct4 mRNA and protein levels are directly driven by graded Nodal/Activin signaling. Hence stem cells interpret and carry out differential Nodal/Activin signaling instructions via a corresponding gradient of Smad2 phosphorylation that selectively titers self renewal against alternative differentiation programs. 3 pSmad2 ChIP samples corresponding to ES cells pretreated for 6 hours in 10uM SB followed by 18 hours in 25ng/ml Activin, 1/5000 DMSO and 10uM SB in 20% KSR media. Controls include the corresponding input DNA for each treatment.
