Neuroprotective protein ADNP-dependent histone remodeling complex promotes Th2 immune cell differentiation (RNA-Seq)


ABSTRACT: Type-2 immune responses are critical in tissue homeostasis, anti-helminth immunity and allergy. Th2 cells produce interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5 and IL-13 from the type-2 gene cluster under regulation by transcription factors (TFs) including GATA3. To better understand this system we performed CRISPR-Cas9 screens targeting 1131 TFs during Th2 cell differentiation. We discovered that ADNP is indispensable for immune reactions to allergen. Mechanistically, ADNP performs a previously unappreciated role in gene activation forming a critical bridge in the transition from pioneer TFs to chromatin remodelling by recruiting CHD4 and BRG1. Although GATA3 and AP-1 bound the type-2 cytokine locus in the absence of ADNP, they were unable to initiate histone acetylation or DNA accessibility, resulting in highly impaired type-2 cytokine expression. Similar ADNP-dependent regulation was observed for the Maf and Il4ra genes which are known regulators of Th2 differentiation. Our results demonstrate an important role for ADNP in promoting immune cell specialization.
