Effect of depletion of Znf143 on gene expression of C2C12 myoblasts with or without induction for myogenic differentiation

ABSTRACT: In adults, muscle stem cells (muscle satellite cells, MuSCs) can be recruited to supply myoblasts for routine muscle fibre homeostasis or muscle regeneration. Epigenetic regulation is essential for the proliferation and differentiation of muscle stem cells and myoblasts. We here report that Znf143 is critical for proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. Znf143 depletion in C2C12 myoblasts dramatically repressed their myogenic differentiation, impairing multiple biological processes including striated muscle contraction, muscle cell differentiation, and myofibril assembly. This is consistent with the limited regeneration of skeletal muscle after freeze injury in mice with MuSC-specific Znf143 ablation.

ZNF143 is a transcriptional regulator of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes that acts independently of looping and CTCF

Project description:Gene expression is orchestrated by transcription factors (TFs), which bind to DNA in a sequence-specific manner, and by spatial genome structure, which constrains and shapes TF activity. Zinc finger protein 143 (ZNF143/ZFP143) is a TF that has been implicated in both gene activation and 3D genome organisation. We have generated an acute ZNF143/ZFP143 depletion system to study its direct consequences on chromatin looping and gene transcription. The effects of ZNF143/ZFP143 depletion are inconsistent with it being a looping factor, which we further confirmed by systematic analysis of previous studies. However, degradation of ZNF143/ZFP143 led to the down-regulation of hundreds of its targets, which were found to be enriched in nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes. By studying the consequences of ZNF143/ZFP143 loss in monoculture and in an in vitro embryonic development model, we establish ZNF143/ZFP143 as a conserved transcriptional regulator of cell proliferation and differentiation by modulating mitochondrial functions.

Engineering of human myotubes towards a mature metabolic and contractile phenotype

Project description:Skeletal muscle mediates the beneficial effects of exercise, thereby improving insulin sensitivity and reducing the risk for type 2 diabetes. Current skeletal-muscle-models in vitro are incapable of fully recapitulating its physiological functions especially regarding exercise. Supplementation of IGF1, a growth factor secreted by myofibers in vivo, might help to overcome these limitations. Primary human CD56-positive myoblasts were differentiated into myotubes in the presence/absence of IGF1 in serum-free medium for 10 days. Daily collected samples were analyzed by proteomics, qRT-PCR and myotube contractibility via electrical-pulse-stimulation (EPS). Mitochondrial respiration and glucose uptake were measured. IGF1-supported differentiation formed thicker multinucleated myotubes showing physiological contraction upon EPS following day 6 while myotubes without IGF1 were almost incapable of contraction. IGF1-treatment upregulated particularly muscle-specific proteins that contribute to myofibril and sarcomere assembly, striated muscle contraction, and ATP production. Elevated PPARGC1A, MYH7 and reduced MYH1/2 suggest a switch towards a more oxidative phenotype in line with elevated mitochondrial respiration. IGF1-treatment also upregulated expression of GLUT4 and increased insulin-dependent glucose uptake. To conclude, utilizing IGF1, we engineered human myotubes that recapitulate the physiological traits of skeletal muscle in vivo vastly superior to established protocols. This novel model enables investigation of exercise on a molecular level, drug screening and interorgan-crosstalk by transfer to organ-on-chip.

ZNF143 is a transcriptional regulator of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes that acts independently of looping and CTCF

Project description:Gene expression is orchestrated by transcription factors, which function within the context of a three-dimensional genome. Zinc finger protein 143 (ZNF143/ZFP143) is a transcription factor that has been implicated in both gene activation and chromatin looping. To study the direct consequences of ZNF143/ZFP143 loss, we generated a ZNF143/ZFP143 degron line. Our results show that ZNF143/ZFP143 depletion has no effect on chromatin looping. Systematic analysis of ZNF143/ZFP143 occupancy data revealed that a commonly used antibody cross-reacts with CTCF, leading to its incorrect association with chromatin loops. Nevertheless, ZNF143/ZFP143 specifically activates nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes and its loss leads to severe mitochondrial dysfunction. Using an in vitro embryo model, we find that ZNF143/ZFP143 is an essential regulator of organismal development. Our results establish ZNF143/ZFP143 as a conserved transcriptional regulator of cell proliferation and differentiation by safeguarding mitochondrial activity.

ZNF143 deletion alters enhancer/promoter looping and CTCF/cohesin geometry [HiChIP]

Project description:The transcription factor ZNF143 contains seven tandem zinc fingers and is involved in 3D genome construction; however, the mechanism by which ZNF143 functions in chromatin looping remains unclear. Here, we show that ZNF143 directionally recognizes diverse genomic sites and is required for chromatin looping between these sites. In addition, ZNF143 is located between CTCF and cohesin at numerous CTCF sites and ZNF143 removal narrows the space between CTCF and cohesin. Moreover, genetic deletion of ZNF143, in conjunction with acute CTCF depletion, revealed that ZNF143 and CTCF collaborate to regulate higher-order genome organization. Thus, ZNF143 is recruited by CTCF to the CTCF sites to regulate TAD formation and genome compartmentalization whereas directional recognition of DNA motifs directly by ZNF143 itself regulates promoter activity via chromatin looping.
