LMO2 is essential to maintain the ability of progenitors to differentiate into T-cell lineage in mice

ABSTRACT: Notch signaling primarily determines T-cell fate. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the maintenance of T-lineage potential in pre-thymic progenitors remain unclear. Here, we established two Ebf1-deficient pro-B cell lines, with and without T-lineage potential. The latter expressed lower levels of Lmo2; their potential was restored via ectopic expression of Lmo2. Conversely, the CRISPR/Cas9-mediated deletion of Lmo2 resulted in the loss of the T-lineage potential. Introduction of Bcl2 rescued massive cell death of Notch-stimulated pro-B cells without efficient LMO2-driven Bcl11a expression but was not sufficient to retain their T-lineage potential. Pro-B cells without T-lineage potential failed to activate Tcf7 due to DNA methylation; Tcf7 transduction restored this capacity. Moreover, direct binding of LMO2 to the Bcl11a and Tcf7 loci was observed. Altogether, our results highlight LMO2 as a crucial player in the survival and maintenance of T-lineage potential in T-cell progenitors via the regulation of the expression of Bcl11a and Tcf7.

Transcription factor Zbtb1 interacts with bridging factor Lmo2 and maintains the T-lineage differentiation capacity of lymphoid progenitor cells

Project description:Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells are able to differentiate into all blood cell types. Regulatory mechanisms underlying pluripotency in progenitors, such as the ability of lymphoid progenitor cells to differentiate into T-lineage, are not fully understood. We have previously reported that Lmo2, a bridging factor in large transcriptional complexes, is essential to retain the ability of lymphoid progenitors to differentiate into T-lineage. However, biochemical characterization of Lmo2 protein complexes in physiological hematopoietic progenitors has remained obscure. In this study, we identified around 600 of Lmo2 interacting molecules in a lymphoid progenitor cell line by two-step affinity purification with LC-MS/MS analysis. Among them, we found that Zbtb1 and Cbfa2t3 are functionally important binding partners of Lmo2. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated acute disruption of Zbtb1 or Cbfa2t3 in a lymphoid progenitor line or BM-derived primary hematopoietic progenitors caused significant defects in the initiation of T cell development when Notch signal is activated. Transcriptome analysis of Zbtb1- or Cbfa2t3-deficient lymphoid progenitors reveled that Tcf7, one the earliest Notch-target genes, is a common target of both factors. ChIP-seq analysis clearly showed that Lmo2, Zbtb1 and Cbfa2t3 co-bind to the Tcf7 upstream enhancer region, where is occupied by Notch intracellular domain/RBPJ transcriptional complex after Notch stimulation, in lymphoid progenitors. Moreover, transduction of Tcf7 restored the defect in the T-lineage potential of Zbtb1-deficient lymphoid progenitor cells. Thus, in lymphoid progenitors, Lmo2/Zbtb1/Cbfa2t3 complex directly binds to the Tcf7 locus and maintains responsiveness to the Notch-mediated inductive signaling for the T-lineage program.

Difference in gene expression signatures of Ebf1-deficient pro-B cell lines with and without the ability to differentiate into T cell lineage

Project description:It was reported that Ebf1-deficient hematopoietic progenitor cells were expandable on OP9 stromal cells in the presence of SCF, Flt3L and IL7, and maintained with the potential for the differentiation into other hematopoietic lineages including T cells with Notch signaling. In contrast, we found that those on thymic stromal cells were similarly expanded but gradually lost their potential to T cell lineage. To know the molecular machinery to retain their potential, we compared their profiles of the transcripts by microarray analysis. Expression of three genes (Meis1, Hmga2 and Lmo2) from this signature was quantified in the same RNA samples by real-time PCR, confirming their difference in the stemness-related genes. It was revealed that Lmo2 is responsible for the maintenance of T-cell differentiation potential among them. Thereafter, the expression profiles were also compared between Ebf1-deficient pro-B cell lines without the potential and their enforced transfectants of Lmo2, showing the downstream targets of Lmo2 in early lymphoid progenitor cells.

Dendritic cell fate is determined by BCL11A

Project description:The plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) is vital to the coordinated action of innate and adaptive immunity. pDC development has not been unequivocally traced, nor has its transcriptional regulatory network been fully clarified. Here we confirm an essential requirement for the BCL11A transcription factor in fetal pDC development, and demonstrate this lineage-specific requirement in the adult organism. Furthermore, we identify BCL11A gene targets and provide a molecular mechanism for its action in pDC commitment. Embryonic germ-line deletion of Bcl11a revealed an absolute cellular, molecular, and functional absence of pDCs in fetal mice. In adults, deletion of Bcl11a in hematopoietic stem cells resulted in perturbed yet continued generation of progenitors, loss of downstream pDC and B-cell lineages, and persisting myeloid, conventional dendritic, and T-cell lineages. Challenge with virus resulted in a marked reduction of antiviral response in conditionally deleted adults. Genome-wide analyses of BCL11A DNA binding and expression revealed that BCL11A regulates transcription of E2-2 and other pDC differentiation modulators, including ID2 and MTG16. Our results identify BCL11A as an essential, lineage- specific factor that regulates pDC development, supporting a model wherein differentiation into pDCs represents a primed "default" pathway for common dendritic cell progenitors. Raji cells were infected with retroviruses containing pXY-PURO (negative control vector) or pXY-BCL11A-XS. BJAB cells were infected with retroviruses containing pXY-PURO (negative control vector) or pXY-BCL11A-XL. Two arrays measured Raji BCL11A-XS expression and two arrays measured BJAB BCL11A-XL expression.

Temporal resolution of gene derepression and proteome changes upon PROTAC-mediated degradation of BCL11A protein in erythroid cells

Project description:Reactivation of fetal hemoglobin expression by down-regulation of BCL11A is a promising treatment of -hemoglobinopathies. A detailed understanding of BCL11A-mediated repression of -globin gene (HBG1/2) transcription is lacking, as studies to date used perturbations by shRNA or CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. We leveraged the dTAG PROTAC platform to acutely deplete BCL11A protein in erythroid cells and examined consequences by PRO-seq, proteomics, chromatin accessibility, and histone profiling. Among ≤ 31 genes repressed by BCL11A, HBG1/2 and HBZ show the most abundant and progressive changes in transcription and chromatin accessibility upon BCL11A loss. Transcriptional changes at HBG1/2 were detected in < 2h. Robust HBG1/2 reactivation upon acute BCL11A-depletion occurred without loss of promoter 5methylcytosine (5mC). Using targeted protein degradation, we establish a hierarchy of gene reactivation at BCL11A targets, in which nascent transcription is followed by increased chromatin accessibility, and both are uncoupled from promoter DNA methylation at the HBG1/2 loci.

RNAi profiling by array of human CD34-derived erythroid progenitors treated with BCL11A siRNAs

Project description:Differences in the amount of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) that persists into adulthood affect the severity of sickle cell disease and the beta-thalassemia syndromes. Genetic association studies have identified sequence variants in the gene BCL11A that influence HbF levels. Here we examine BCL11A as a potential regulator of HbF expression. The high HbF BCL11A genotype is associated with reduced BCL11A expression. Moreover, abundant expression of full-length forms of BCL11A is developmentally restricted to adult erythroid cells. Down-regulation of BCL11A expression in primary adult erythroid cells leads to robust HbF expression. Consistent with a direct role of BCL11A in globin gene regulation, we find that BCL11A occupies several discrete sites in the beta-globin gene cluster. BCL11A emerges as a therapeutic target for reactivation of HbF in beta-hemoglobin disorders. BCL11A siRNA label: B, NT siRNA label: N Experiment Overall Design: Microarray expression analysis from CD34-derived erythroid progenitors treated with either non-targeting (NT) control siRNAs or BCL11A targeting siRNAs. Six samples from the NT control and six samples from the BCL11A siRNA treatment are included. Cells were harvested on day 7 of erythroid differentiation after introduction of siRNAs on day 0 of the differentiation protocol. Experiment Overall Design: 6 BCL11A siRNA datasets, 6 control (NT) datasets
