Project description:Transcription factors and their specific interactions with targets are crucial in specifying gene expression programs. To gain insights into the transcriptional regulatory networks in embryonic stem cells, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to ultra-high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) to map the locations of OCT4, NANOG and CTCF. ChIP-enriched DNA from pooled ChIP samples were analyzed by Solexa sequencing.

Project description:We studied the genomic locations of three key regulatory proteins (OCT4, NANOG and CTCF) in human and mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells [see Series GSE20650]. To identify the conserved and unique human OCT4 targets, we performed an OCT4 RNAi knock-down experiment. We find that species-specific transposable elements have profoundly altered the transcriptional circuitry of pluripotent stem cells.

Project description:Transcription factors and their specific interactions with targets are crucial in specifying gene expression programs. To gain insights into the transcriptional regulatory networks in embryonic stem cells, we use chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to ultra-high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) to map the locations of thirteen sequence specific transcription factors (Nanog, Oct4, STAT3, Smad1, Sox2, Zfx, c-Myc, n-Myc, Klf4, Esrrb, Tcfcp2l1, E2f1 and CTCF) and two transcription regulators (p300 and Suz12). These factors are known to play different roles in ES cell biology as components of the LIF and BMP signaling pathways, self-renewal regulators and key reprogramming factors. Our study provides insights into the integration of the signaling pathways to the ES cell-specific transcription circuitries. Intriguingly, we find specific genomic regions extensively targeted by different transcription factors. Collectively, the comprehensive mapping of transcription factor binding sites identifies important features of the transcriptional regulatory networks that define ES cell identity.

Project description:We studied the genomic locations of three key regulatory proteins (OCT4, NANOG and CTCF) in human and mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells [see Series GSE20650]. To identify the conserved and unique human OCT4 targets, we performed an OCT4 RNAi knock-down experiment. We find that species-specific transposable elements have profoundly altered the transcriptional circuitry of pluripotent stem cells. To identify the mRNA targets of OCT4: 12 samples were collected in total. Each sample is done in triplicate and samples were collected at 2 different time point, 2 days and 3 days after transfection. Luciferase knockdown serves as negative control and OCT4 knockdown is the experimental sample.

Project description:Embryonic stem cell (ESC) pluripotency is governed by a gene regulatory network centred on the transcription factors Oct4 and Nanog. ESCs fluctuate between states of high and low Nanog expression that direct efficient or inefficient self-renewal. To date, robust self-renewing ESC states have only been attained by chemical inhibition of signalling pathways or enforced transgene expression. Here we show that ESCs expressing a reduced range of Oct4 concentrations, typified by Oct4 heterozygous ESCs exhibit stable robust pluripotency. Despite this reduced Oct4 concentration range, this state is characterised by increased genome-wide binding of Oct4, particularly at pluripotency-associated enhancers, homogeneous expression of pluripotency transcription factors, enhanced self-renewal efficiency and delayed differentiation kinetics. In this state, ESCs exhibit increased wnt expression, enhanced LIF-sensitivity, non-responsiveness to FGF signalling and can clonally maintain pluripotency without BMP but remain dependent upon LIF. Robust pluripotency is destabilised either by alteration of the Oct4 level or by removal of LIF. Our findings suggest that robust pluripotency originates from cells with a reduced Oct4 protein concentration and that the wild-type Oct4 range enables effective differentiation.

Project description:The transcription factors Nanog, Oct4 and Sox2 are the master regulators of pluripotency in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), however, their functions in human ESCs (hESCs) have not been rigorously defined. Here we show that the requirements for NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2 in hESCs differ from those in mESCs. Both NANOG and OCT4 are required for self-renewal and repress differentiation. OCT4 controls both extraembryonic and epiblast-derived cell fates in a BMP4-dependent manner. OCT4-depleted hESCs commit to trophectoderm and primitive endoderm in the presence of BMP4, but undergo neuroectoderm differentiation in the absence of BMP4. NANOG represses neuroectoderm and neural crest commitment, but has little or no effect on the other lineages. We find that SOX2 is not required for self-renewal because it is redundant with SOX3, which is induced in SOX2-depleted hESCs. Simultaneous depletion of both SOX2 and SOX3 induces differentiation into the primitive streak. Unexpectedly, we identify significant variability in the usage of pluripotency factors by individual hESC lines, suggesting that the pluripotency network is remodelled to support a continuum of developmental states. Our study revises the general view of how NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2 orchestrate self-renewal in hESCs.
