Project description:The zinc finger transcription factor Ikaros1 (Ikzf1) is required for lymphoid development in mammals. It is characterized by the presence of four zinc fingers in its DNA binding domain and two zinc fingers in the C-terminal protein interaction module. Here, we describe the phenotypes of zebrafish homozygous for two distinct mutant ikzf1 alleles. The IT325 variant lacks the C-terminal two zinc fingers, whereas the fr105 variant retains only the first zinc finger of the DNA binding domain. Our results indicate that an intact ikzf1 gene is required for larval T cell development, whereas low levels of adult lymphoid development recover in the mutants. By contrast, the mutants exhibit a signature of increased myelopoiesis at larval and adult stages. Of note, both mutants stimulate erythroid differentiation in larvae, indicating that the C-terminal zinc fingers negatively regulate the extent of red blood cell production. An unexpected differential effect of the two mutants on adult erythropoiesis suggests a direct requirement of an intact DNA binding domain for entry of progenitors into the red blood cell lineage. Collectively, our results reinforce the biological differences between larval and adult haematopoiesis, indicate a stage-specific function of ikzf1 in regulating the hierarchical bifurcations of differentiation, and assign distinct functions to the DNA binding domain and the C-terminal zinc fingers.

Project description:Alterations of IKZF1, encoding the lymphoid transcription factor IKAROS, are a hallmark of high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), however the role of IKZF1 alterations in ALL pathogenesis is poorly understood. Here we show that in mouse models of BCR-ABL1 leukemia, Ikzf1 and Arf alterations synergistically promote the development of an aggressive lymphoid leukemia. Ikzf1 alterations were associated with acquisition of stem cell-like features, including self-renewal and increased bone marrow stromal adhesion. Rexinoid receptor agonists reversed this phenotype, in part by inducing expression of IKZF1, resulting in abrogation of adhesion and self-renewal, cell cycle arrest and attenuation of proliferation without direct cytotoxicity. Retinoids potentiated the activity of dasatinib in mouse and human BCR-ABL1 ALL, providing a new therapeutic option in IKZF1-mutated ALL. Significance: The outcome of therapy for high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia remains suboptimal despite contemporary chemotherapy and the advent of targeted therapeutic approaches. Recent genomic studies have identified deletions or mutations of IKZF1 as a hallmark of high-risk ALL, but an understanding of how IKZF1 alteration contribute to leukemia development are lacking. Here we show that IKZF1 alterations drive lymphoid lineage, a stem cell-like phenotype, abnormal bone marrow adhesion, and poor responsiveness to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Using a high-content screen, we show that retinoids reverse this phenotype in part by inducing expression of wild type IKZF1, and increase responsiveness to TKIs. These findings provide new insight into the pathogenesis of high-risk ALL and potential new therapeutic approaches.

Project description:Analysis of the effect of Prednisolone in mouse splenocytes with and without Ikzf1 at gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that loss of Ikzf1 affects the induction and repression of the Glucocorticoid receptor target genes. Results provide important information of the differentially expressed genes regulated by Ikzf1 upon Prednisolone treatment, explaining the resistance towards Glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis in splenocytes harboring Ikzf1 loss. Total RNA was obtained from WT and Ikzf1+/- splenocytes subjected to 16 hours Prednsiolone treatment compared to untreated cells.

Project description:Cys2-His2 zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) are the largest group of transcription factors in higher metazoans. A complete characterization of these ZFPs and their associated target sequences is pivotal to fully annotate transcriptional regulatory networks in metazoan genomes. As a first step in this process, we have characterized the DNA-binding specificities of 130 Zinc finger sets from Drosophila melanogaster using a bacterial one-hybrid system. This data set contains the DNA-binding specificities for at least one encoded ZFP from 71 unique genes and 22 alternate splice isoforms. This represents the largest block of characterized ZFPs from any organism described to date. These recognition motifs can be used to predict genomic binding sites and potential regulatory targets for these factors within the fruit fly genome. We have characterized subsets of fingers from these ZFPs to define the correct orientation and register of the zinc fingers on their defined binding sites. By correlating individual fingers with motif subsites, we can assign finger specificity throughout each ZFP. This reveals the diversity of recognition potential within the naturally-occurring zinc fingers of a single organism, where the characterized fingers can specify 47 of the 64 possible DNA triplets. To confirm the utility of our finger recognition models, we have employed subsets of Drosophila fingers in combination with an existing archive of zinc finger modules to create ZFPs with novel DNA-binding specificity. These finger combinations can be used to create novel functional Zinc Finger Nucleases for editing vertebrate genomes.

Project description:In order to investigate the function of IKZF1 in ALL, we isolated bone marrow cells from C57Bl6 mice and transformed them with BCR-ABL1. In a second transduction the BCR-ABL1 driven pre-B cells were transformed either with IKZF1-GFP or empty vector control (GFP) and subjected to gene expression analysis.

Project description:The Ikzf1 locus encodes the lymphoid specific transcription factors Ikaros, which play an essential role in both T and B cell differentiation, while deregulation or mutation of IKZF1/Ikzf1 is involved in leukemia. Tissue-specific and cell identity genes are usually associated with clusters of enhancers, also called super-enhancers, which are believed to ensure proper regulation of gene expression throughout cell development and differentiation. Several potential regulatory regions have been identified in close proximity of Ikzf1, however, the full extent of the regulatory landscape of the Ikzf1 locus is not yet established. In this study, we combined epigenomics and transcription factor binding along with high-throughput enhancer assay and 4C-seq to prioritize an enhancer element located 120 kb upstream of the Ikzf1 gene. We found that the deletion of the E120 enhancer resulted in a significant reduction of Ikzf1 mRNA. However, the epigenetic landscape and 3D topology of the locus were only slightly affected, highlighting the complexity of the regulatory landscape regulating the Ikzf1 locus

Project description:The N-terminal three zinc finger motifs of PARP1 are evolutionarily conserved in multicellular organism。However, during apoptosis, human PARP1 is mainly cleaved by caspase 3 at D214. As a result, the truncated PARP1 loses two N-terminal zinc finger motifs and only contains the third zinc finger motif, the BRCT domain, the WGR domain and the C-terminal catalytic domain. Interestingly, when we explored the domain architecture of PARP1 in other organisms, we found that similar to human tPARP1, PARP1 orthologs in several lower organisms do not have the N-terminal two zinc fingers or even they lack the third zinc finger motif. It indicates that even without the first two zinc finger motifs, tPARP1 may still catalyze ADP-ribosylation and play an important role in certain biological processes. To reveal the biological function of tPARP1, we performed tandem affinity purification and searched for the possible substrates.
