Project description:Mitosis leads to global downregulation of transcription that then needs to be efficiently resumed. In somatic cells, this is mediated by a transient hyper-active state that first reactivates housekeeping and then cell identity genes. Here, we show that mouse embryonic stem cells, which display rapid cell cycles and spend little time in G1, also display accelerated reactivation dynamics. This uniquely fast global reactivation lacks specificity towards functional gene families, enabling the restoration of all regulatory functions before DNA replication. Genes displaying the fastest reactivation are bound by CTCF, a mitotic bookmarking transcription factor. In spite of this, the post-mitotic global burst is robust and largely insensitive to CTCF depletion. There are, however, around 350 genes that respond to CTCF depletion rapidly after mitotic exit. Remarkably, these are characterised by promoter-proximal mitotic bookmarking by CTCF. We propose that the structure of the cell cycle imposes distinct constrains to post-mitotic gene reactivation dynamics in different cell types, via mechanisms that are yet to be identified but that can be modulated by mitotic bookmarking factors.

Project description:The genome is thought to be transcriptionally silent during mitosis. Technical limitations have prevented the sensitive mapping of mitotic transcription and transcription reactivation during mitotic exit, and thus the networks by which transcriptome dynamics govern the generation of daughter cells have been unclear. We used 5-ethynyluridine to pulse-label intact transcripts during mitosis and mitotic exit and find that the first round of transcription activates genes that are involved in macromolecular synthesis, rather than cell identity. Many interphase genes exhibit residual transcription in mitosis, as confirmed by different methods of assessment, and a subset of genes are more highly transcribed in mitosis than in interphase. We suggest that mitotic transcription may serve an epigenetic function in restoring proper transcription patterns during mitotic exit.

Project description:Mitotic bookmarking transcription factors (TFs) are thought to mediate rapid and accurate post-mitotic gene reactivation. However, the loss of individual bookmarking TFs often leads to the deregulation of only a small proportion of their mitotic targets, raising doubts on the significance and importance of their bookmarking function. Here, we used targeted proteomics of the mitotic bookmarking TF ESRRB, an orphan nuclear receptor, to discover an unexpected redundancy among members of the protein superfamily of nuclear receptors. Focusing on the nuclear receptor NR5A2, which together with ESRRB is essential in maintaining pluripotency in mouse embryonic stem cells, we demonstrate conjoint bookmarking activity of both factors on promoters and enhancers of a large fraction of active genes, particularly the most rapidly and strongly reactivated ones. Upon fast and simultaneous degradation of both factors during mitotic exit, hundreds of mitotic targets of ESRRB/NR5A2, including key players of the pluripotency network, display attenuated transcriptional reactivation. We propose that redundancy in mitotic bookmarking TFs, especially nuclear receptors, confers robustness to the reestablishment of gene regulatory networks after mitosis.

Project description:For cells to initiate and sustain a differentiated state, it is necessary that a “memory” of this state is transmitted through mitosis to the daughter cells. Mammalian SWItch/ Sucrose Non- Fermentable (SWI/SNF) complexes, also called Brg1/ Brg- associated factors (BAF), control cell identity by modulating chromatin architecture to regulate gene expression, but whether they participate in cell fate memory is unclear. Here, we provide evidence that subunits of SWI/SNF act as mitotic bookmarks to safeguard cell identity during cell division. The SWI/SNF core subunits SMARCE1 and SMARCB1 are displaced from enhancers but bound on promoters during mitosis and we show that this binding is required for appropriate reactivation of bound genes after mitotic exit. Ablation of SMARCE1 during a single mitosis in mouse embryonic stem cells is sufficient to disrupt gene expression, impair the occupancy of several established bookmarks at a subset of their targets, and cause aberrant neural differentiation. Thus, SWI/SNF subunit SMARCE1 plays a mitotic bookmarking role and is essential for heritable epigenetic fidelity during transcriptional reprogramming.

Project description:In mitosis, most transcription factors detach from chromatin, but some are retained and bookmark genomic sites. Mitotic bookmarking has been implicated in lineage inheritance, pluripotency and reprogramming. However, the biological significance of this mechanism in vivo remains unclear. Here, we address mitotic retention of the hemogenic factors GATA2, GFI1B and FOS during haematopoietic specification. We show that GATA2 remains bound to chromatin throughout mitosis, in contrast to GFI1B and FOS, via C-terminal zinc finger-mediated DNA binding. GATA2 bookmarks a subset of its interphase targets that are co-enriched for RUNX1 and other regulators of definitive haematopoiesis. Remarkably, homozygous mice harbouring the cyclin B1 mitosis degradation domain upstream Gata2 partially phenocopy knockout mice. Degradation of GATA2 at mitotic exit abolishes definitive haematopoiesis at aorta-gonad-mesonephros, placenta and foetal liver, but does not impair yolk sac haematopoiesis. Our findings implicate GATA2-mediated mitotic bookmarking as critical for definitive haematopoiesis and highlight a dependency on bookmarkers for lineage commitment.

Project description:To maintain cellular identities during development, gene expression profiles must be faithfully propagated through cell generations. The reestablishment of gene expression patterns upon mitotic exit is thought to be mediated, in part, by mitotic bookmarking by transcription factors (TF). However, the mechanisms and functions of TF mitotic bookmarking during early embryogenesis remain poorly understood. In this study, taking advantage of the naturally synchronized mitoses of Drosophila early embryos, we provide evidence that the pioneer-like transcription factor GAF acts as stable mitotic bookmarker during zygotic genome activation. We report that GAF remains associated to a large fraction of its interphase targets (37%). Mitotically-bound loci include cis-regulatory sequences of key developmental genes, with both active and repressive chromatin signatures. GAF mitotic targets are globally accessible during mitosis and a subset is also mitotically bookmarked via histone acetylation (H4K8ac). By monitoring the kinetics of transcriptional activation in living embryos, we provide evidence that GAF binding establishes competence for rapid activation upon mitotic exit.
