Inactivation of GSK3b by Ser389 phosphorylation during early thymocyte development contributes to the diversity of the Tcrb and Tcra repertoire.

ABSTRACT: During thymocyte development, double negative (DN) thymocytes go through consecutive rounds of Tcr and Tcr gene recombination that involve the generation of DNA double strand breaks (DSB), addition of N-nucleotides between coding ends, and DNA repair with the final goal of enhancing the diversity of the TCR repertoire. How DN thymocytes can survive such a genomic instability during this complex process and generate functional Tcr and Tcr genes remain unclear. Performing scRNAseq analyses of isolated DN3 and DN4 thymocytes we show here a defined trajectory from DN3 through DN4 stages that is delineated by a G1 cell cycle checkpoint, but also by a G2M cell cycle checkpoint to help DNA repair during recombination of Tcr and Tcr genes prior to cell proliferation. We have previously shown that inactivation of GSK3 by phosphorylation on Ser389 occurs selectively in response to DNA DSB to enhance survival during DNA repair. In this study we show that failure to inactivate GSK3 by Ser389-phosphorylation during the transition from DN3 to DN4 stages compromises Tcr and Tcr repertoire diversity. Inactivation of GSK3 during V(D)J recombination is needed to prevent cell death by necroptosis. Thus, cell cycle checkpoints to ensure proper DNA repair during V(D)J recombination as well as the use of unique survival pathways to avoid necroptosis during this process are critical to warrant a large diversity of pre-selection TCR repertoire.

Zinc finger protein Zfp335 controls thymocyte differentiation and survival through b-selection-dependent and -independent mechanisms [ChIP-seq]

Project description:T cell development proceeds in a series of developmental stages, which is precisely orchestrated by multiple signaling and molecular networks. Here we found a zinc finger protein Zfp335 intrinsically controls DN to DP transition, as T cell-specific deficiency in Zfp335 leads to a substantial accumulation of DN3 along with reduction of DP, CD4+ and CD8+ thymocytes. This developmental blockade at DN stage results from the impaired intracellular TCRβ expression as well as increased susceptibility to apoptosis in thymocytes. Transcriptomic and ChIP-seq analyses revealed a direct regulation of transcription factors Bcl6 and Rorc by Zfp335. Importantly, enhanced expression of TCRβ and Bcl6/RorγT restores the developmental defect during DN3 to DN4 transition and improves thymocytes survival, respectively. These findings identify a critical role of Zfp335 in controlling T cell development by maintaining intracellular TCR expression-mediated β-selection and independently activating cell survival signaling.

Transcription profiling of mouse double negative thymocytes

Project description:In order to understand the molecular mechanisms of DN thymocyte development, it may be also of use to clarify how these developmental processes are regulated in terms of their entire gene expression, to which cell differentiation is ultimately ascribed. In the current study, we approached this issue by investigating gene expression profiles in discrete subsets of DN thymocytes under development, in which DN2, DN3, and DN4 thymocytes were sorted and subjected to expression profiling analysis with high-density oligonucleotide microarrays. Experiment Overall Design: The DN2, DN3, and DN4 populations were FACS-sorted from DN thymocytes harvested from four C57BL/6 mice and analyzed by AffymetrixÂ® Mouse Genome 430 2.0 ArrayÂ® for gene expression. Four independent experiments were performed using 16 mice.

Opposing roles of E2A and Id3 that orchestrate and enforce the naive T cell fate

Project description:It is established that E2A and its antagonist, Id3, modulate developmental progression at the pre-TCR and TCR checkpoints. Here we show at a global scale how E2A promotes commitment to the T cell lineage and how pre-TCR mediated signalling affects E2A genome-wide occupancy. We find aberrant development of CD4 memory-like and TFH-like cells, T-B cell conjugates and, remarkably, B cell follicles in Id3-/-thymi. We also find that Id3-/-CD4 splenocytes exhibit increased numbers of TFH-like cells. We propose a model in which Id3 modulates the naive versus effector/memory cell fate. Collectively, these data show how E2A acts globally to orchestrate T-lineage development and that Id3 antagonizes E2A activity beyond the pre-TCR checkpoint to enforce the naive T cell fate. ChIP-Seq was performed in thymocytes isolated from either untreated Rag2-/-mice (DN3 cells) or Rag2-/- mice injected with anti-CD3e antibody (DN4 cells). ChIP used antibodies against either E2A or H3K4me1.

Ikaros mediates gene silencing in T cells through Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 [ChIP-seq]

Project description:T cell development is accompanied by epigenetic changes that ensure the silencing of stem cell-related, and the activation of lymphocyte-specific programs. How transcription factors influence these changes remains unclear. We show that the Ikaros transcription factor interacts with the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) in CD4-CD8- thymocytes, and allows its binding to >200 developmentally-regulated genes, many of which are expressed in hematopoietic stem cells. Loss of Ikaros in CD4-CD8- cells leads to diminished histone H3 Lys27 (H3K27) trimethylation and ectopic expression of these genes. Ikaros binding triggers PRC2 recruitment and H3K27 trimethylation. Furthermore, Ikaros interacts with PRC2 independently of the Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylation complex. Our results identify Ikaros as a fundamental regulator of PRC2 function in developing T cells.
