ABSTRACT: Lamins, the major components of the nuclear lamina, have diverse functions in many cellular processes. Despite broad expression, lamins have been implicated in cell type-specific roles in development, aging and disease by regulating gene expression. Yet, due to the lack of in depth lineage-specific functional studies, it remains unclear whether or how lamins regulate cell type-specific functions. Using targeted knockout of lamin B1 in the olfactory sensory neuron lineage, we show that lamin B1 is not required for early stages of olfactory sensory neuron differentiation but is needed for formation of mature neurons that properly respond to odor stimulation. Lamin B1 mutant cells exhibited decreased expression of genes involved in mature neuron function, increased expression of genes atypical of the olfactory lineage and clustered nuclear pore distribution. These results demonstrate that the universally expressed lamin B1 regulates cell type-specific gene expression and terminal differentiation.

Project description:B-type lamins, the major structural component of the nuclear lamina, is thought to play a repressive role in the expression of many of its bound genes whose silencing are known to be critical for cell differentiation during early development. Using global mapping of lamin-B-chromatin interaction, we find that the binding to lamin-B indeed correlated with gene silencing in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) and ESC-derived trophectoderm (TE) lineage cells. To address whether lamin-B directly suppresses the expression of the bound genes, we have derived ESCs from lamin-B-null mouse blastocysts. Unexpectedly, microarray analyses of ESCs and TE cells show that B-type lamins do not repress the expression of their bound genes. Furthermore, the knockout mice that do not express any B-type lamins can develop to term but exhibit small body size and perinatal lethality. Our studies demonstrate that B-type lamins are not required for cell differentiation during early embryonic development. Instead, they are required for proper late embryonic and perinatal development. The availability of the null ESCs and mice opens the door to further define the functions of B-type lamins. The Dam and Dam-lamin B1 (Lmnb1) lentivirus generated from 293T cells were concentrated by spinning at 25,000 rpm with the SW28Ti rotor (Beckman) for 3 hours. The viral pellets were resuspended in 1x PBS. For ESCs, freshly trypsinized ESCs were plated into a 6-well plate with 2 ml complete GMEM medium containing either Dam or Dam-Lmnb1 lentivirus, spin-infected at 700g for 45 min, and incubated for a total of 48 hours. For TE cells, TSCs were differentiated toward TE cells for 6 days. On day 6, the TE cells were transduced by spin-infection as above with a fresh TS medium containing either Dam or Dam-Lmnb1 lentivirus. The TE cells were incubated for 48 hours after viral transduction. The adenine-methylated DNAs were amplified from the genomic DNA by adaptor-mediated PCR. The amplified DNAs were labeled by the Dual color DNA labeling kit (Roche). The labeled DNAs were hybridized with 2.1M mouse whole-genome tiling arrays (NimbleGen, 05327911001), which covers non-repetitive regions in approximately 250 bp intervals, according to the manufacturer's recommendation. This submission represents the gene expression component of the study.
