Project description:The Polycomb group (PcG) proteins have an important role in controlling the expression of key genes implicated in embryonic development, differentiation and decision of cell fates. Emerging evidence suggests that Polycomb repressive complexes 1 (PRC1) is defined by the six Polycomb group RING finger protein (Pcgf) paralogs and Pcgf proteins can assemble into noncanonical PRC1 complexes. However, little is known about the precise mechanisms of differently composed noncanonical PRC1 in the maintenance of the pluripotent cell state. Here we disrupt the Pcgf genes in mouse embryonic stem cells by CRISPR-Cas9 to investigate Pcgf6 function. Microarray experiments were performed using wildtype ,Pcgf6 KO and Pcgf6 KO + Pcgf6_flag ES cells.

Project description:Polycomb group (PcG) proteins comprise a large group of evolutionary conserved factors with essential roles for embryonic development and adult stem cell function. PcG proteins constitute two main multiprotein polycomb repressive complexes (PRC1 and PRC2) that operate in a hierarchical manner to silence gene expression. Functionally distinct PRC1 complexes are defined by Polycomb group RING finger protein (PCGF) paralogs. So far, six PCGF paralogs (PCGF1-6) have been identified but paralog-specific functions are not well understood. In our studies, we observed that Pcgf6 showed the highest expression level in undifferentiated murine embryonic stem cells (ESCs), blastocysts and testes. When ESCs differentiated, Pcgf6 expression strongly declined. To further investigate Pcgf6 biology, we established dox-inducible shRNA knockdown (KD) ESCs. Following Pcgf6 KD in ESCs the expression of pluripotency genes decreased, while mesodermal- and spermatogenesis-specific genes were de-repressed. Concomitantly with the elevated expression of mesodermal lineage markers, Pcgf6 KD ESCs showed increased hemangioblastic and hematopoietic activities. Finally, PCGF6 replaced SOX2 but not KLF4 or c-MYC in the generation of germline-competent iPS cells. Forced expression of Pcgf6 in OSKM-driven reprogramming increases iPS efficiency while Pcgf6 KD reduces the formation of ESC-like colonies. Together, these analyses show that Pcgf6 is non-redundantly involved in maintaining the pluripotent nature of ESCs and functions in iPS reprogramming. 6 samples were hybridized GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays (Affymetrix)

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells can be obtained through the introduction of defined factors into somatic cells. The combination of Oct4, Sox2 and Klf4 (OSK) constitutes the minimal requirement for generating iPS cells from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Through the genomic analyses of ESC genes that have roles in pluripotency and fusion-mediated somatic cell reprogramming, we identified Tbx3 as a transcription factor that significantly improves the quality of iPS cells. Induced-PS cells generated with OSK + Tbx3 (OSKT) are superior in both germ cell contribution to the gonads and germ-line transmission frequency. However, global gene expression profiling could not distinguish between OSK and OSKT iPS cells. Genome-wide ChIP-sequencing analysis of Tbx3 binding sites in ESCs suggests that Tbx3 regulates pluripotency-associated and reprogramming factors, in addition to sharing many common downstream regulatory targets with Oct4, Sox2, Nanog and Smad1.

Project description:To study the function of Paf1C in mouse ESCs, we generated an ES cell line stably expressing a location and affinity purification (LAP)-tagged Ctr9 fusiuon protein using the bacterial astificial chromosome (BAC)-based TransgeneOmics approach. To investigate whether pluripotency and lineage control genes differentially regulated upon Paf1C depletion are direct targets of the Paf1C, we analyzed the binding of the Ctr9-LAP fusion protein by ChIP-chip and identified 2175 promoter regions that were bound by Ctr9. The supplementary bed file contains promoter regions bound by Ctr9. Keywords: ChIP-chip

Project description:We report that the PRC1 component polycomb group ring finger 6 (Pcgf6) is required to maintain embryonic stem cell (ESC) identity. In contrast to canonical PRC1, Pcgf6 acts as a positive regulator of transcription and binds predominantly to promoters bearing active chromatin marks. Pcgf6 is expressed at high levels in ESCs, and knockdown reduces the expression of the core ESC regulators Oct4,Sox2, and Nanog. Conversely, Pcgf6 overexpression prevents downregulation of these factors and impairs differentiation. In addition, Pcgf6 enhanced reprogramming in both mouse and human somatic cells. The genomic binding profile of Pcgf6 is highly similar to that of trithorax group proteins, but not of PRC1 or PRC2 complexes, suggesting that Pcgf6 functions atypically in ESCs. Our data reveal novel roles for Pcgf6 in directly regulating Oct4, Nanog, Sox2, and Lin28 expression to maintain ESC identity. To identify Pcgf6-bound genomic DNA regions in mouse embryonic stem cells, we fixed mouse ESCs and isolated Pcgf6-bound genomic DNA regions for deep sequencing analysis.

Project description:Ctr9, the key scaffold subunit of the human RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) associated factor complex (PAFc), has been demonstrated as a positive regulator of ERα-positive breast cancer progression and ERα-target gene expression. Previously, we found that knockdown of Ctr9 reduces ERα protein stability and decreases the occupancy of ERα and RNAPII at select ERα-target genes. However, the genome-wide regulation of the occupancy of ERα and RNAPII mediated by Ctr9 is still unclear. Here, we determined the genome-wide ERα and RNAPII occupancy in response to estrogen induction and/or Ctr9 knockdown by performing chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq). We found that loss of Ctr9 dramatically decreases the global occupancy of ERα and RNAPII, highlighting the significance of Ctr9 in regulating estrogen signaling in ERα-positive breast cancer cells. Combining this resource with previously published genomic data sets, we identified a unique subset of ERα and Ctr9 target genes, and further delineates the possible independent function of Ctr9 from other subunits in PAFc.
