RNA Sequencing facilitates the identification of transcriptional targets of Pitx1 in Xenopus laevis

ABSTRACT: The cement gland in Xenopus laevis has long been used as a model to study the interplay of cell signaling and transcription factors during embryogenesis. The homeodomain-containing transcription factor Pitx1 has been linked to cement gland development. However, the downstream transcriptional targets of Pitx1 remain unknown. Here, we utilize RNA Sequencing to identify transcripts whose expression are affected by Pitx1 misexpression in animal cap explants.

Transcription profiling of Xenopus laevis ectodermal explants following activation of hormone-inducible zic1

Project description:The response of ectodermal explants, neuralized by noggin and treated with cycloheximide, following activation of hormone-inducible zic1 injected into the parent embryos compared to those from beta globin injected embryos as controls, is expected to provide information on the direct targets of the Zic1 transcription factor. Experiment Overall Design: Activation of zic1 in ectodermal explants following inhibition of new protein synthesis allowed the direct targets of zic1 to be identified by comparison with controls. After RNA extraction, purification and checks with PCR with actin primers for any mesoderm contamination samples were prepared for hybridization to Xenopus laevis Affymetrix GeneChip arrays.

Pitx1 broadly associates with limb enhancers and is enriched on hindlimb cis-regulatory elements

Project description:Extensive functional analyses have demonstrated that the pituitary homeodomain transcription factor Pitx1 plays a critical role in specifying hindlimb morphology in vertebrates. However, much less is known regarding the target genes and cis-regulatory elements through which Pitx1 acts. Earlier studies suggested that the hindlimb transcription factors Tbx4, HoxC10, and HoxC11 might be transcriptional targets of Pitx1, but definitive evidence for direct regulatory interactions has been lacking. Using ChIP-Seq on embryonic mouse hindlimbs, we have pinpointed the genome-wide location of Pitx1 binding sites during mouse hindlimb development and identified potential gene targets for Pitx1. We determined that Pitx1 binding is significantly enriched near genes involved in limb morphogenesis, including Tbx4, HoxC10, and HoxC11. Notably, Pitx1 is bound to the previously identified HLEA and HLEB hindlimb enhancers of the Tbx4 gene and to a newly identified Tbx2 hindlimb enhancer. Moreover, Pitx1 binding is significantly enriched on hindlimb relative to forelimb-specific cis-regulatory features that are differentially marked by H3K27ac. However, our analysis revealed that Pitx1 also strongly associates with many functionally verified limb enhancers that exhibit similar levels of activity in the embryonic mesenchyme of forelimbs and hindlimbs. We speculate that Pitx1 influences hindlimb morphology both through the activation of hindlimb specific enhancers as well as through the hindlimb-specific modulation of enhancers that are active in both sets of limbs. Embryonic hindlimb buds from 4 ICR mouse samples were used.
