Single-cell transcriptome analysis of uniparental embryos reveals parent-of-origin effects on human preimplantation development [methylation]

ABSTRACT: To investigate the contribution of parental genomes to early embryogenesis, we systematically profiled the single-cell transcriptomes of human biparental and uniparental embryos from one-cell to morula stages. We observed that uniparental embryos exhibit variable and overall less activation patterns of embryonic genome activation (EGA). Comparative transcriptome analysis identified 807 maternally biased expressed genes (MBGs) and 581 paternally biased expressed genes (PBGs) in preimplantation stages. MBGs became obviously appeared at the four-cell stage and contribute to EGA initiation, whereas PBGs preferentially appeared at the eight-cell stage, and possibly affect embryo compaction and trophectoderm specification. Regulatory network analysis revealed DUX4, EGR2 and DUXA as key transcription factors for MBGs expression as well as ZNF263 and KLF3 for PBGs expression. Furthermore, we revealed that the expression of MBGs and PBGs，especially PBGs, probably due to DNA methylation differences between the parental genomes. Together, our results provide a valuable resource to understand parental genome activation and may help to dissect parent-of-origin effect on early human development.

Fertilization triggers a transcription program mouse & human one-cell embryos

Project description:Following fertilization, the new embryo reprograms parental genomes to begin transcription (embryonic genome activation, EGA). EGA is indispensable for development, but its dynamics, profile or when it initiates in vertebrates are unknown. We here characterize the onset of transcription in mouse one-cell embryos. Precise embryo staging eliminated noise to reveal a cascading program of de novo transcription initiating within six hours of fertilization. This immediate EGA (iEGA) utilized canonical promoters, produced spliced transcripts, was distinctive and predominantly driven by the maternal genome. Expression represented pathways not only associated with embryo development but with cancer. In human one-cell embryos, hundreds of genes were up-regulated, days earlier than thought, with conservation to mouse iEGA. These findings provide a functional basis for epigenetic analysis in early-stage embryos and illuminate networks governing totipotency and other cell-fate transitions.

Genomic targets of the KRAB and scan domain-containing zinc finger protein 263 (ZNF263).

Project description:Half of all human transcription factors use C2H2 zinc finger domains to specify site-specific DNA binding and yet very little is known about their role in gene regulation. Based on in vitro studies, a zinc finger code has been developed that predicts a binding motif for a particular zinc finger factor (ZNF). However, very few studies have performed genome-wide analyses of ZNF binding patterns and thus it is not clear if the binding code developed in vitro will be useful for identifying target genes of a particular ZNF. We performed genome-wide ChIP-seq for ZNF263, a C2H2 ZNF that contains 9 finger domains, a KRAB repression domain, and a SCAN domain and identified more than 5000 binding sites in K562 cells. Our results suggest that ZNF263 binds to a 24 nt site which differs from the motif predicted by the zinc finger code in several positions. Interestingly, many of the ZNF263 binding sites are located within the transcribed region of the target gene. Although ZNFs containing a KRAB domain are thought to function mainly as transcriptional repressors, many of the ZNF263 target genes are expressed at high levels. To address the biological role of ZNF263, we identified genes whose expression was altered by treatment of cells with ZNF263-specific siRNAs. Our results suggest that ZNF263 can have both positive and negative effects on transcriptional regulation of its target genes.

Evolution of antagonism among DUX family members from an ancestral toxic single homeodomain protein

Project description:Double homeobox genes are unique to eutherian mammals, transiently expressed in early blastomere-stage embryos, and comprise 3 clades (DUXA, B, and C) evolved by homeodomain duplication and divergence from an ancestral single homeobox gene, sDUX, present in non-eutherian mammals and other vertebrates. We test platypus sDUX and find that it drives cellular phenotypes identical to DUX4, the human DUXC gene, including cytotoxicity and inhibition of myogenic differentiation. sDUX binds DNA as a head-to-head dimer, showing near overlap of protein core and DNA to the DUX4-DNA crystal structure. DUXA and sDUX bind both palindromic and nonpalindromic TAAT/TGAT double homeodomain motifs against DUX4 preference for non-palindromic. Although DUXA lacks transcriptional activation potential, we find significant similarities in transcriptional and chromatin profiles of sDUX with DUX4 and DUXA-VP64, including expression of ZGA genes and LTR elements. Furthermore, DUXA binds to a significant fraction of DUX4 target sites and is able to counteract transcriptional activation of DUX4 on its targets, potentiating a feedback inhibitory loop, including in cells from patients with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). The DUX gene family therefore comprises cross-regulating members of opposing function, with implications for their roles in ZGA, FSHD, and cancer.

Transcription factor ZNF263 enhances EGFR-targeted therapeutic response and reduces residual disease in lung adenocarcinoma [ChIP-seq]

Project description:EGF receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have achieved clinical successes in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, tumors often show profound but transient initial response and gain resistance. Here, we identified transcription factor ZNF263 as being significantly decreased in osimertinib-resistant or drug-tolerant persister LUAD cells and clinical residual tumor specimens. Exogenous expression of ZNF263 improved the initial response of cells and delayed the formation of persister cells with osimertinib. We elaborated that ZNF263 bound and recruited DNMT1 to the EGFR gene promoter, suppressing EGFR transcription with DNA hypermethylation. ZNF263 could also interact with nuclear EGFR (nEGFR), impairing the nEGFR-STAT5 interaction to enhance AURKA expression. Overexpressing ZNF263 also made tumor cells with wild-type EGFR expression or refractory EGFR mutations more susceptible to EGFR inhibition. More importantly, lentivirus or AAV-mediated plasmid delivery of ZNF263 synergistically suppressed tumor growth and regrowth with osimertinib in xenograft animal models. These findings suggest that enhancing ZNF263 may achieve complete response in LUAD with EGFR-targeted therapies.

Distinct imprinting signatures and biased differentiation of human androgenetic and parthenogenetic embryonic stem cells [RNA-Seq II]

Project description:Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic mechanism that results in parent-of-origin monoallelic expression of specific genes, which precludes uniparental development and underlies various diseases. Here, we explored molecular and developmental aspects of imprinting in humans by generating exclusively paternal human androgenetic embryonic stem cells (aESCs) and comparing them with exclusively maternal parthenogenetic ESCs (pESCs) and bi-parental ESCs, establishing a pluripotent cell system of distinct parental backgrounds. Analyzing the transcriptomes and methylomes of human aESCs, pESCs, and bi-parental ESCs enabled the characterization of regulatory relations at known imprinted regions and uncovered imprinted gene candidates within and outside known imprinted regions. Investigating the consequences of uniparental differentiation, we showed the known paternal-genome preference for placental contribution, revealed a similar bias toward liver differentiation, and implicated the involvement of the imprinted gene IGF2 in this process. Our results demonstrate the utility of parent-specific human ESCs for dissecting the role of imprinting in human development and disease.
