Project description:The erythroid Krüppel-like factor EKLF/KLF1 is a hematopoietic transcription factor binding to CACCC DNA motif and participating in the regulation of erythroid differentiation. With combined use of microarray-based gene expression profiling and promoter-based ChIP-chip assay of E14.5 fetal liver cells from wild type (WT) and EKLF-knockout (Eklf-/-) mouse embryos, we have identified the pathways and direct target genes activated or repressed by EKLF. This genome-wide study together with molecular/ cellular analysis of mouse erythroleukemic cells (MEL) indicate that among the downstream direct target genes of EKLF is Tal1/Scl. Tal1/Scl encodes another DNA-binding hematopoietic transcription factor TAL1/SCL known to be an Eklf activator and essential for definitive erythroid differentiation. Further identification of the authentic Tall gene promoter in combination with in vivo genomic footprinting approach and DNA reporter assay demonstrate that EKLF activates Tall gene through binding to a specific CACCC motif located in its promoter. These data establish the existence of a previously unknow positive regulatory feedback loop between two DNA-binding hematopoietic transcription factors that sustains the mammalian erythropoiesis.

Project description:Klf1 (formerly known as Eklf) regulates the development of erythroid cells from bi-potent progenitor cells via the transcriptional activation of a diverse set of genes. Mice lacking Klf1 die in utero prior to E15 from severe anemia due to the inadequate expression of genes controlling hemoglobin production, cell membrane and cytoskeletal integrity, and the cell cycle and proliferation. We have recently described the full repertoire of Klf1 binding sites in vivo by performing Klf1 ChIP-seq in primary erythroid tissue (E14.5 fetal liver). Here we describe the Klf1-dependent erythroid transcriptome by comparing mRNA-seq from Klf1+/+ and Klf1-/- erythroid tissue. This has revealed novel target genes not previously obtainable by traditional microarray technology and provided novel insights into the function of Klf1 as a transcriptional activator such as interactions with Gata1, Scl/Tal1 and p300. We also describe a set of erythroid specific promoters not previously identified that drive high level expression of otherwise ubiquitously expressed genes in erythroid cells. Additionally, our study has identified for the first time two novel lnc-RNAs that are dynamically expressed during erythroid differentiation as well as a role for Klf1 in directing apoptotic gene expression to drive the terminal stages of erythroid maturation. Examination of mRNA expression in 3 Klf1-/- and 3 Klf1+/+ fetal livers This submission represents mRNA-Seq component of study.

Project description:ChIP-Seq experiments using an Scl/TAL1 antibody were carried out in primary erythroid cells cultured from two individuals of Caucasian origin. ChIP-Seq libraries were prepared from two biological replicates for each individual. ChIP DNA was processed for Illumina High-throughput sequencing according to Illumina protocol. By obtaining over four billion bases of sequence from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA from each experiments, we generated a high-resolution map of Scl/TAL1 genomic targets in human erythroid cells. We find that WGATAR and the combinatorial CTG(n9)GATA are the most significant motifs responsible for the chromatin occupancy by Scl/TAL1. In addition, other motifs are also significantly enriched at the Scl/TAL1 targets. Amongst these were binding sites for known TFs (Sp/XKLF, RUNX1, NFE2). We next investigated how many of these targets varied between these two individuals. We find that 0.8% of Scl/TAL1 binding regions differ significantly between the two individuals.

Project description:Analyses of the consequences of up- and down-regulating SCL/TAL1 in human enriched hematopoietic stem progenitor cells (HSPCs). We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression program of human cord blood HSPCs (CD34+CD38-lowCD34RA-CD90+) in which SCL/TAL1 expression is either up- or down-regulated.

Project description:The onset of erythropoiesis is under strict developmental control, with direct and indirect inputs influencing its derivation from the hematopoietic stem cell. A major regulator of this transition is KLF1/EKLF, a zinc finger transcription factor that plays a global role in all aspects of erythropoiesis. Here, we have identified a short, conserved enhancer element in KLF1 intron 1 that is important for establishing optimal levels of KLF1 in mouse and human cells. Chromatin accessibility of this site exhibits cell-type specificity and is under developmental control during the differentiation of human CD34+ cells towards the erythroid lineage. This site binds GATA1, SMAD1, TAL1, and ETV6. In vivo editing of this region in cell lines and primary cells reduces KLF1 expression quantitatively. However, we find that, similar to observations seen in pedigrees of families with KLF1 mutations, downstream effects are variable, suggesting that the global architecture of the site is buffered towards keeping the KLF1 genetic region in an active state. We propose that modification of intron 1 in both alleles is not equivalent to complete loss of function of one allele.

Project description:Purpose: We characterized the role of EKLF in erythroblast island macrophages in E13.5 mouse fetal liver by analysing the transcriptomes of F4/80+ macrophages from WT and EKLF-/- by RNA-Seq. In addition we analyzed the transcriptomes of F4/80+ fetal liver macrophages from an EKLF/GFP mouse, where GFP acts as a surrogate for EKLF expression, to determine the genes enriched in EKLF/GFP+ macrophages compared to EKLF/GFP- macrophages where EKLF is not expressed. Finally, we used single cell RNA sequencing to resolve the heterogeneous population of F4/80+ macrophages from WT. Methods: For RNA-Seq from WT and EKLF-/- F4/80+ macrophages were FACS sorted from primary E13.5 mouse fetal livers and RNA was isolated using the Trizol method. F4/80+ macrophages were also FACS sorted from the EKLF/GFP mouse and the GFP+ and GFP- populations were collected. The GFP+ population had low cell numbers and therefore RNA was isolated using an Agilent RNA Nanoprep kit. For single cell sequencing, E13.5 fetal livers were stained with F4/80-PE antibody and the F4/80-PE+ cells were purified using an EZ-Sep PE selection kit (mouse). 25,000 cells were submitted for single cell sequencing for the Chromium V3 platform. Library preparation was done using the standard Illumina Truseq workflow, and libraries were sequenced in a Hiseq 2500 for WT and EKLF-/-, or Novaseq for EKLF/GFP and single cell sequencing. Results: We found that 1954 genes are differentially expressed in EKLF-/- F4/80+ macrophages vs WT and 2330 genes are differentially enriched in EKLF/GFP+ F4/80+ macrophages using DESeq2. Of these, 504 are common and constitute the EKLF-dependent gene expression program in F4/80+ fetal liver macrophages. We resolved the F4/80+ WT macrophages into 13 clusters based on gene expression and find that 23% of the total F4/80+ cells express EKLF. Conclusions: We find that the F4/80+ fetal liver macrophage are a unique cell type. We identify the EKLF-dependent gene expression program in these macrophages and determine an important transcription circuit governed by EKLF that constitute cell cycle and other Klf and Sp family transcription factors. Single cell sequencing showed a highly heterogeneous population of macrophages with activated macrophage as well as erythro-myeloid characteristics. Based on the expression of EKLF, we identified specific cell surface markers for EKLF+ F4/80+ macrophages.
