Genome-wide identification of SCL/Tal1’s functional targets; insights into its mechanisms of action in primary erythroid cells

ABSTRACT: Coordination of cellular processes through the establishment of tissue-specific gene expression programmes is essential for lineage maturation. The basic helix-loop-helix haemopoietic transcriptional regulator SCL/Tal1 is required for terminal differentiation of red blood cells. To gain insight into SCL function and mechanisms of action in erythropoiesis, we performed ChIP-sequencing and gene expression analyses from primary fetal liver erythroid cells. We show that SCL coordinates expression of genes in most known red cell-specific processes. The majority of SCL’s genomic targets require direct DNA-binding activity. However, one fifth of SCL’s target sequences, mainly amongst those showing high affinity for SCL, can recruit the factor independently of its DNA binding activity. An unbiased DNA motif search of sequences bound by SCL identified CAGNTG as SCL-preferred E-box motif in erythroid cells. Novel motifs were also characterised that may help distinguish activated from repressed genes and suggest a new mechanism by which SCL may be recruited to DNA. Finally, analysis of recruitment of GATA1, a protein partner of SCL, to sequences occupied by SCL suggests that SCL’s binding is necessary prior or simultaneous to that of GATA1. This work provides the framework to study regulatory networks leading to erythroid terminal maturation and to model mechanisms of action of tissue-specific transcription factors.

Genome-wide mapping of in vivo SCL/DNA interactions in erythroid cells

Project description:We have previously proposed two distinct molecular mechanisms by which SCL binds its targets in hematopoiesis; either by direct contact with specific DNA sequences or by indirect recruitment through interaction with other proteins. We have established that direct DNA binding is the major non-redundant mechanism SCL exerts in red cells. A DNA-binding mutant form of SCL (SCLRER) had detrimental effect on erythropoiesis in vivo. To extend these data to a molecular and mechanistic level, we have set out to identify the genomic sequences bound by SCL in vivo in erythroid precursors; we performed anti-SCL ChIP assays on immature, Ter119- erythroid cell populations isolated from day E12.5 wild-type (SCLWT/WT) fetal livers followed by ultra-throughput sequencing (ChIP-SEQ). To compare SCL’s direct versus indirect DNA-binding activities and, thus, gain insight into its mechanisms of action, we also analysed material isolated from SCLRER/RER fetal livers. anti-SCL ChIP-enriched DNA from mouse fetal liver erythroblast chromatin was analysed by Solexa sequencing. Four samples were processed: chromatin from SCL wildtype erythroblasts (WT-SCL) and SCL mutant erythroblasts (RER-SCL) were ChIPed by anti-SCL antibody and sequenced with their respective 'no antibody' controls.

A novel role for Lyl1 in primitive erythropoiesis

Project description:Stem Cell Leukemia (Scl or Tal1) and Lymphoblastic Leukemia 1 (Lyl1) are highly related members of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors that are co- expressed in hematopoietic stem cells and the erythro-megakaryocytic lineages. Previous studies suggest that Scl is essential for hematopoietic development including primitive erythropoiesis. However, analysis of single-cell RNA-sequencing data of early embryos showed that primitive erythroid cells express both Scl and Lyl1. Therefore, to determine whether Lyl1 has a functional role in erythropoiesis, we crossed conditional Scl mice with transgenic mice expressing a Cre recombinase under the control of the Epo receptor, active in erythroid progenitors. Surprisingly, embryos with markedly reduced expression of Scl from E9.5 survived to adulthood. In contrast, mice with reduced expression of Scl and absence of Lyl1 (double knockout; DKO) died at E10.5 due to progressive loss of erythropoiesis. Consistent with a phenocopy of Gata1-null mice, gene expression profiling of DKO yolk sacs prior to the loss of erythrocytes (E9.5) revealed loss of Gata1 and many of the known target genes of the SCL-GATA1 complex. ChIP-seq analyses showed that LYL1 exclusively bound a small subset of SCL targets including GATA1. Together, these data show for the first time that Scl and Lyl1 share functional roles in primitive erythropoiesis.

SCL and c-Kit controlled gene expression in erythroid progenitor cell line

Project description:SCL/TAL1, a tissue-specific transcription factor of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family, and c-Kit, a tyrosine kinase receptor, control hematopoietic stem cell survival and quiescence. Here we report that SCL and c-Kit signaling control a common gene expression signature, of which 19 genes are associated with apoptosis. In vivo, SCL levels are limiting for the clonal expansion of Kit+ multipotent and erythroid progenitors. In addition, increased SCL expression specifically enhances the sensitivity of multipotent and megakaryocyte/erythroid progenitors to Steel factor (KIT ligand), whilst a DNA binding mutant antagonizes KIT function and induces apoptosis in progenitors. We conclude that Scl operates downstream of Kit to support the survival of megakaryocyte/erythroid progenitors. Finally, higher SCL expression upregulates Kit in normal bone marrow cells and increases chimerism after bone marrow transplantation, indicating that Scl is also upstream of Kit. We conclude that Scl and Kit establish a positive feedback loop in multipotent and megakaryocyte/erythroid progenitors.

Genome-wide binding of GATA1 and TAL1 determined at high resolution

Project description:Erythroid development and differentiation from multiprogenitor cells to red blood cells requires precise transcriptional regulation. Key erythroid transcription factors, GATA1 and TAL1, co-operate, along with other proteins, to regulate many aspects of this process. How GATA1 and TAL1 are positionally organized with respect to each other and their cognate DNA binding site across the mouse genome remains unclear. We applied high resolution ChIP-exo to GATA1 and TAL1 to study their positional organization across the mouse genome during GATA1-dependent maturation. Two complementary methods, MultiGPS and peak-pairing, were used to determine high confidence binding locations by ChIP-exo. We identified ~10,000 GATA1 and ~15,000 TAL1 locations, which were essentially confirmed by ChIP-seq. Of these, ~4,000 locations were bound by both GATA1 and TAL1. About three-quarters of these were tightly linked (<40 bp away) to a partial E-box located 7-8 bp upstream of a WGATAA motif. Both TAL1 and GATA1 generated distinct characteristic ChIP-exo peaks around WGATAA motifs, that reflect on their positional arrangement within a complex. We show that TAL1 and GATA1 form a precisely organized complex at a compound motif consisting of a TG 7-8 bp upstream of a WGATAA motif across thousands of genomic locations.

ChIP-Chip data from WT E14.5 fetal liver

Project description:The erythroid Krüppel-like factor EKLF/KLF1 is a hematopoietic transcription factor binding to CACCC DNA motif and participating in the regulation of erythroid differentiation. With combined use of microarray-based gene expression profiling and promoter-based ChIP-chip assay of E14.5 fetal liver cells from wild type (WT) and EKLF-knockout (Eklf-/-) mouse embryos, we have identified the pathways and direct target genes activated or repressed by EKLF. This genome-wide study together with molecular/ cellular analysis of mouse erythroleukemic cells (MEL) indicate that among the downstream direct target genes of EKLF is Tal1/Scl. Tal1/Scl encodes another DNA-binding hematopoietic transcription factor TAL1/SCL known to be an Eklf activator and essential for definitive erythroid differentiation. Further identification of the authentic Tall gene promoter in combination with in vivo genomic footprinting approach and DNA reporter assay demonstrate that EKLF activates Tall gene through binding to a specific CACCC motif located in its promoter. These data establish the existence of a previously unknow positive regulatory feedback loop between two DNA-binding hematopoietic transcription factors that sustains the mammalian erythropoiesis.
