Cell fate determination at the chromatin level is not fully comprehended. Here, we report that c-JUN acts on chromatin loci to limit mesoderm cell fate specification as cells exit pluripotency. Although c-JUN is widely expressed across various cell types in early embryogenesis, it is not essential for maintaining pluripotency. Instead, it functions as a repressor to constrain mesoderm development while having a negligible impact on ectoderm differentiation. c-JUN interacts with MBD3-NuRD complex ...[more]

Project description:Chromatin remodelers actively target arrays of acetylated nucleosomes at select enhancers and promoters to facilitate or shut down the repeated recruitment of RNA polymerase II during transcriptional bursting. It is poorly understood how chromatin remodelers such as PBAF dynamically target different chromatin states inside a live cell. Our live-cell single-molecule fluorescence microscopy study reveals chromatin hubs throughout the nucleus where PBAF rapidly cycles on and off the genome. Deletion of PBAF's bromodomains impairs targeting and stable engagement of chromatin in hubs. Dual color imaging reveals that PBAF targets both euchromatic and heterochromatic hubs with distinct genome-binding kinetic profiles that mimic chromatin stability. Removal of PBAF's bromodomains stabilizes H3.3 binding within chromatin, indicating that bromodomains may play a direct role in remodeling of the nucleosome. Our data suggests that PBAF's dynamic bromodomain-mediated engagement of a nucleosome may reflect the chromatin-remodeling potential of differentially bound chromatin states.

Project description:The exit from pluripotency or pluripotent-somatic transition (PST) landmarks an event of mammalian development, and is also a representative cell-fate transition model, but remains largely unresolved. Recently, we reported construction of robust JUN-induced PST completed in one cell cycle and whose dominant regulator SS18/BAFs (Brg1/Brahma-associated factors). However, the transition process in the chromatin architecture and the roles played by BAF are still unknown. Here we report the dynamic changes of chromatin accessibility during JUN-induced PST. Meanwhile, SS18/BAFs mediates PST process by relocating from pluripotent loci to AP-1 associated ones and once compromised, JUN fails to open chromatin and PST will be delayed. Furthermore, we show that the relocation of SS18/BAF partially relays on histone modification H3K27ac, instead of JUN-centric protein-protein interaction. These results reveal the orchestration of master transcription factor, epigenetic machine, and histone modification in the cell fate transition.

Project description:Stem cells establish cortical polarity and divide asymmetrically to simultaneously maintain themselves and generate differentiating offspring cells. Several chromatin modifiers have been identified as stemness factors in mammalian pluripotent stem cells, but whether these factors control stem cell polarity and asymmetric division has not been investigated so far. We addressed this question in Drosophila neural stem cells called neuroblasts. We identified the Tip60 chromatin remodeling complex and its interaction partner Myc to regulate target genes required for neuroblast maintenance. Knockdown of members of this complex results in loss of cortical polarity, symmetric neuroblast division and premature differentiation through nuclear entry of the transcription factor Prospero. We found that aPKC is the key target gene of Myc and the Tip60 complex subunit Domino regulating neuroblast polarity. Our transcriptome analysis further showed that Domino regulates the expression of mitotic spindle genes which were identified before as direct Myc targets. Our findings reveal an evolutionarily conserved functional link between Myc, the Tip60 complex and the molecular network controlling cell polarity and asymmetric cell division.

Project description:Initiation and maintenance of transcriptional states are critical for controlling normal tissue homeostasis and differentiation. The cyclin dependent kinases CDK8 and CDK19 (Mediator kinases) are regulatory components of Mediator, a highly conserved complex that orchestrates enhancer-mediated transcriptional output. While Mediator kinases have been implicated in the transcription of genes necessary for development and growth, its function in mammals has not been well defined. Using genetically defined models and pharmacological inhibitors, we showed that CDK8 and CDK19 function in a redundant manner to regulate intestinal lineage specification in humans and mice. The Mediator kinase module bound and phosphorylated key components of the chromatin remodeling complex switch/sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) in intestinal epithelial cells. Concomitantly, SWI/SNF and MED12-Mediator colocalized at distinct lineage-specifying enhancers in a CDK8/19-dependent manner. Thus, these studies reveal a transcriptional mechanism of intestinal cell specification, coordinated by the interaction between the chromatin remodeling complex SWI/SNF and Mediator kinase.

Project description:Functional crosstalk between histone modifications and chromatin remodeling has emerged as a key regulatory mode of transcriptional control during cell fate decisions, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Here we discover an HRP2-DPF3a-BAF epigenetic pathway that coordinates methylated histone H3 lysine 36 (H3K36me) and ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling to regulate chromatin dynamics and gene transcription during myogenic differentiation. Using siRNA screening targeting epigenetic modifiers, we identify hepatoma-derived growth factor-related protein 2 (HRP2) as a key regulator of myogenesis. Knockout of HRP2 in mice leads to impaired muscle regeneration. Mechanistically, through its HIV integrase binding domain (IBD), HRP2 associates with the BRG1/BRM-associated factor (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex by interacting directly with the BAF45c (DPF3a) subunit. Through its Pro-Trp-Trp-Pro (PWWP) domain, HRP2 preferentially binds to H3K36me2. Consistent with the biochemical studies, ChIP-seq analyses show that HRP2 colocalizes with DPF3a across the genome and that the recruitment of HRP2/DPF3a to chromatin is dependent on H3K36me2. Integrative transcriptomic and cistromic analyses, coupled with ATAC-seq, reveal that HRP2 and DPF3a activate myogenic genes by increasing chromatin accessibility through recruitment of BRG1, the ATPase subunit of the BAF complex. Taken together, these results illuminate a key role for the HRP2-DPF3a-BAF complex in the epigenetic coordination of gene transcription during myogenic differentiation.

Project description:ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes are important regulators of gene expression in Eukaryotes. In plants, SWI/SNF-type complexes have been shown critical for transcriptional control of key developmental processes, growth and stress responses. To gain insight into mechanisms underlying these roles, we performed whole genome mapping of the SWI/SNF catalytic subunit BRM in Arabidopsis thaliana, combined with transcript profiling experiments. Our data show that BRM occupies thousands of sites in Arabidopsis genome, most of which located within or close to genes. Among identified direct BRM transcriptional targets almost equal numbers were up- and downregulated upon BRM depletion, suggesting that BRM can act as both activator and repressor of gene expression. Interestingly, in addition to genes showing canonical pattern of BRM enrichment near transcription start site, many other genes showed a transcription termination site-centred BRM occupancy profile. We found that BRM-bound 3΄ gene regions have promoter-like features, including presence of TATA boxes and high H3K4me3 levels, and possess high antisense transcriptional activity which is subjected to both activation and repression by SWI/SNF complex. Our data suggest that binding to gene terminators and controlling transcription of non-coding RNAs is another way through which SWI/SNF complex regulates expression of its targets.

Project description:Cellular differentiation is instructed by developmental regulators in coordination with chromatin remodeling complexes. Much information about their coordination comes from studies in the model ascomycetous yeasts. It is not clear, however, what kind of information that can be extrapolated to species of other phyla in Kingdom Fungi. In the basidiomycete Cryptococcus neoformans, the transcription factor Znf2 controls yeast-to-hypha differentiation. Through a forward genetic screen, we identified the basidiomycete-specific factor Brf1. We discovered Brf1 works together with Snf5 in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex in concert with existent Znf2 to execute cellular differentiation. We demonstrated that SWI/SNF assists Znf2 in opening the promoter regions of hyphal specific genes, including the ZNF2 gene itself. This complex also supports Znf2 to fully associate with its target regions. Importantly, our findings revealed key differences in composition and biological function of the SWI/SNF complex in the two major phyla of Kingdom Fungi.

Project description:This project explores the role of the chromatin remodelling complex in oligodendrogial development using a series of tools including conditional disruption of the INO80 gene within mice and primary oligodendrocyte precursors. This experiment sought to understand whether INO80 complex proteins interact with a major oligodendrocyte-specific transcription factor, OLIG2. OLIG2 was immuno-precipitated from cultured oligodendrocyte lineage cells differentiated from primary E13.5 cortical neural stem cells. Immunoprecipitated samples were then analysed for protein interaction partners via mass spectrometry.

Project description:Human and mouse somatic cells can be reprogrammed by the combination of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc, but the efficiency of reprogramming is low. To better understand the process of reprogramming we sought to identify factors that mediate reprogramming at higher efficiency. For this we established an assay to screen nuclear fractions from the extracts of pluripotent cells based on Oct4 reactivation. We identified components of the ATP-dependent SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex, which when used along with the above four factors increase reprogramming efficiency by five-fold and improve the quality of the reprogrammed cells. These cells were found to be capable of germline transmission and exhibited pluripotency according to gene expression and in vivo and in vitro assays. SWI/SNF was found to replace c-Myc and mediate its effects by facilitating recruitment of Oct4 on target promoters during reprogramming. Thus, somatic cell reprogramming using chromatin-remodeling molecules represents an efficient method of generating reprogrammed cells. DNA-free RNA samples to be hybridized on Illumina expression BeadChips were processed using a linear amplification kit (Ambion) (generating IVT duration: 12h). cRNA samples were quality-checked on a 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent) and hybridized as biological triplicates onto MouseWG-6 V2 chips as recommended and using materials / reagents provided by the manufacturer (hybridization time: 18h). The Myc probe on the V2 arrays was found to be defective. The bead intensities were mapped to gene information using BeadStudio 3.2 (Illumina), background correction was performed using the Affymetrix Robust Multi-array Analysis (RMA) background correction model, variance stabilization was performed using log2 scaling, and gene expression normalization was calculated with the quantile method implemented in the lumi package of R-Bioconductor. Data post-processing and graphics were performed with in-house developed functions in Matlab. Hierarchical clusters of genes and samples were performed with a one minus correlation metric and the average (unweighted pair group) linkage method. 4 samples were analyzed, each one them by triplicate.
