CHIP-seq analysis about Histones and Zscan4 after Zscan4 overexpression

ABSTRACT: Transcription factor Zscan4 was newly discovered to be a marker of the intermediate state of 2-cell like cells . In addition, the WGCNA discovered a strong positive correlation between the expression of Zscan4 and that of MT2/MERVL .Hence, we examined the possibility for Zscan4 as an activator of MT2/MERVL.

MERVL/Zscan4 network activation results in transient genome-wide DNA demethylation of mESCs

Project description:Several previous studies have noted a rare sub-population of murine Embryonic Stem Cells (mESCs) which seem to express genes otherwise specific to the 2-cell stage of embryonic development. Here we sorted single cells from a MERVL/Zscan4 reporter line to investigate the continuum of expression as cells go from the standard state to this 2C-like state.

The ERK5 signalling pathway employs a KLF2-ZSCAN4 auto-regulatory module to induce embryonic 2-cell stage genes

Project description:The ERK5 MAP kinase signalling pathway was recently discovered as a driver of naïve pluripotency in mouse Embryonic Stem Cells (mESCs). However, the molecular functions of ERK5 in mESCs have not been investigated. Here, we employ combinatorial mESC proteomics to identify ERK5 target genes and substrates. Global proteomic profiling reveals ZSCAN4 and other 2-cell stage genes as transcriptional targets of the ERK5 pathway. ZSCAN4 expression is specifically induced by ERK5-dependent transcription of the core pluripotency factor KLF2. Additionally, ERK5 directly phosphorylates tandem KLF2 Thr-Pro/Ser-Pro motifs identified by phosphoproteomics to recruit the FBXW7-CUL1 E3 ligase, promoting KLF2 ubiquitylation and degradation. ERK5 phosphorylation of KLF2 thereby provides negative-feedback control to restrain transcriptional induction of ZSCAN4. Our data uncover an auto-regulatory module by which ERK5 co-opts KLF2 to pattern ZSCAN4 expression. This study provides the first molecular insight into ERK5 functions in mESCs, and suggests a novel role for ERK5 signalling in stem cell rejuvenation

Rejuvenation of pluripotent stem cells by frequent activation of Zscan4, Part B

Project description:The gold standard for examining pluripotency of stem cells is to see whether cells can contribute to entire body of animals. Here we show that the increased frequency of Zscan4 activation in mouse ES cells not only enhances, but also maintains their developmental potency in long-term cell culture. As the potency increases, even a whole animal can be produced from a single ES cell injected into 4N blastocyst at unusually high success rate. Although Zscan4-activated cells express genes that are also expressed in 2-cell stage mouse embryos, transiently Zscan4-activated state of ES cells is not associated with the high potency of ES cells. It is thus concluded that ES cells acquire higher potency by going through transient Zscan4 activation state more frequently than the regular state. Taken together, our results indicate that frequent activation of Zscan4 can rejuvenate pluripotent stem cells. Previously, we have shown that constitutive and strong expression of Zscan4 arrest the proliferation of ES cells (refs). We sought for the system to mimic the transient expression of Zscan4 and decided to use ERT2 - Tamoxifen-inducible system (refs). The system allows one to keep a transgene off in the absence of Tmx and turn on in the presence of Tmx at will (refs). We first made a plasmid construct pCAG-Zscan4-ERT2, in which ZSCAN4 ORF fused with ERT2 domain can be driven by a strong ubiquitous promoter CAG. To further investigate this, we transfected pCAG-Zscan4-ERT2 plasmid into an F1 hybrid (C57BL/6J vs. 129) ES cell line V6.5 and isolated multiple cell clones. Based on the qRT-PCR analysis of Zscan4 ORF, we found that cell clones showed a variety of Zscan4 expression levels. We selected the clone that showed the highest Zscan4 expression levels (clone #18) and a clone #2 with the background Zscan4 level.

ZSCAN4-binding motif - TGCACAC is conserved and enriched in CA/TG microsatellites in both mouse and human genomes [RNA-Seq]

Project description:The Zinc finger and SCAN domain containing 4 (Zscan4) protein, expressed transiently in pluripotent stem cells as well as in gamete and embryonic development, regulates genome stability in addition to telomere elongation and karyotype correction in mouse ES cells. However, the mechanism underlying Zscan4’s ability to counter the toxic effects of DNA/chromatin remodeling is not fully understood. In this study, we used ChIP-seq technology with Zscan4 antibodies to identify genome-wide binding sites in mouse and human ES cells. We discovered that both mouse and human Zscan4 bind to specific simple sequence repeats, (TG/CA)n, that have a propensity to induce genomic instability through a left-handed helix and stem-loop structure. Furthermore, we found that Zscan4 removes active histone marks from (TG/CA)n regions to maintain the closed/inactive chromatin state. These results demonstrate that Zscan4 protects unstable genomic regions by directing chromatin condensation.
