Project description:Organismal development requires the precise coordination of genetic programs to regulate cell fate and function. MEF2 transcription factors play essential roles in this process but how these broadly expressed factors contribute to the generation of specific cell types during development is poorly understood. Here we show that despite being expressed in virtually all mammalian tissues, in the retina MEF2D binds to retina-specific enhancers and controls photoreceptor cell development. MEF2D achieves specificity by cooperating with a retina-specific factor CRX, which recruits MEF2D away from canonical MEF2 binding sites, and redirects it to retina-specific enhancers that lack the consensus MEF2 sequence. Once bound to retina-specific enhancers, MEF2D and CRX co-activate the expression of photoreceptor-specific genes that are critical for retinal function. These findings demonstrate that broadly expressed TFs acquire specific functions through competitive recruitment to enhancers by tissue-specific TFs, and through cooperative activation of these enhancers to regulate tissue-specific genes.

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) orchestrate tissue homeostasis, allergic disorders and anti-helminth protective immunity through their production of cytokines. However, their rarity has hampered high-throughput genetic screening approaches to uncover novel ILC2 regulators in an unbiased manner. We combined expansion of progenitors from multi-reporter mouse strains with optimised ILC differentiation cultures to perform CRISPR-Cas9 screens for regulators of ILC2 development and function. Mef2d emerged as a critical regulator of GATA3 and IL-13, and was essential for type-2 immunity as demonstrated by conditional Mef2d-deficient mice, including a Boolean-ILC2-Cre (BIC) mouse strain developed to enable ILC2-specific gene deletion. Mechanistically, Mef2d bound and transcriptionally repressed the Zc3h12a locus encoding the endonuclease Regnase-1, a negative regulator of IL-33 receptor (ST2) and GATA3 expression, thereby promoting IL-33-mediated ILC2 proliferation and cytokine production. Notably, in ILC2s Mef2d also acted downstream of leukotriene C4-induced calcium-mediated signalling to translocate NFAT1 to the nucleus to promote type-2 gene transcription. These Mef2d-mediated pathways converge and feedback to potentiate type-2 immunity.

Project description:The transcription factor MYC is overexpressed in most cancers, where it drives multiple hallmarks of cancer progression. MYC is known to promote oncogenic transcription by binding to active promoters. In addition, MYC has also been shown to invade distal enhancers when expressed at oncogenic levels, but this enhancer binding has been proposed to have low gene-regulatory potential. Here, we demonstrate that MYC enhancer binding directly promotes cancer type-specific gene programs predictive of poor patient prognosis. MYC induces transcription of enhancer RNA through recruitment of RNAPII, rather than regulating RNAPII pause-release as is the case at promoters. This is mediated by MYC-induced H3K9 demethylation by KDM3A and acetylation by GCN5, leading to enhancer-specific BRD4 recruitment through its bromodomains, which facilitates RNAPII recruitment. Thus, we propose that MYC drives prognostic cancer type-specific gene programs by promoting RNAPII recruitment to enhancers through induction of an epigenetic switch.
