Project description:Rybp plays pivotal roles in regulating organic development, spermatogenesis, apoptosis and cancer. However, it remains unknown regarding the function of Rybp in regulating neuronal development. In the present study, we have shown that the depletion of Rybp in embryonic neural progenitor cells (NPCs) impairs proliferation and promotes neuronal differentiation of embryonic NPCs. In additon, Rybp deficiency results in alterations in dendritic shape of neuron.

Project description:The heterogeneous nature of mammalian PRC1 complexes has hindered our understanding of their biological functions. Here, we present a comprehensive proteomic and genomic analysis that uncovered six major groups of PRC1 complexes each containing a distinct PCGF subunit, a RING1A/B ubiquitin ligase, and a unique set of associated polypeptides. These PRC1 complexes differ in their genomic localization and only a small subset co-localize with H3K27me3. Further biochemical dissection revealed that the six PCGFM-bM-^@M-^SRING1A/B combinations form multiple complexes through association with RYBP or its homolog YAF2, which prevents the incorporation of other canonical PRC1 subunits such as CBX, PHC and SCM. Although both RYBP/YAF2- and CBX/PHC/SCM-containing complexes compact chromatin, only RYBP stimulates the activity of RING1B toward H2AK119ub1, suggesting a central role in PRC1 function. Knockdown of RYBP in ES cells compromised their ability to form embryoid bodies, likely because of defects in cell proliferation and maintenance of H2AK119ub1 level. ChIP-seq experiments of different PRC1 components were performed either on HA-tagged transgenic stable 293T-REx lines or on endogenous subunits using specific antibodies.

Project description:Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) comprises two different complexes: CBX-containing canonical PRC1 (cPRC1) and RYBP/YAF2-containing variant PRC1 (vPRC1). RYBP and its paralog YAF2 recruit vPRC1 to catalyze H2AK119ub through a positive-feedback model. Here, we show that expression of RYBP and YAF2 decreases and increases, respectively, during neural differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Rybp knockout impairs neural differentiation by activating Wnt signaling and derepressing nonneuroectoderm-associated genes. However, Yaf2 knockout promotes neural differentiation and leads to redistribution of RYBP binding, increases enrichment of RYBP and H2AK119ub on the RYBP-YAF2 co-targeted genes, and prevents ectopic derepression of nonneuroectoderm-associated genes in neural-differentiated cells. Furthermore, the phase separations mediated by RYBP alone or together with RING1B are easier and more stable than those by YAF2, which might facilitate the deposition of H2AK119ub more abundantly by RYBP-PRC1 than YAF2-PRC1. Together, this study reveals that RYBP might maintain repressed chromatin more strongly and function differentially in regulating mESC neural differentiation compared with YAF2.

Project description:Understanding the molecular basis of cell fate decision is critical to shed light onto biological processes supporting tissue formation. In particular, whether lineage-fated cells derive from multi-primed progenitors and need to establish active fate restriction mechanisms to engage in a differentiation pathway is still matter of debate. To characterise the mechanisms underlying specification of blood-fated cells from mesodermal precursors, we studied the transcriptional activity of the key hematopoietic regulator SCL/TAL1. Scl-null mouse embryos die at embryonic day E9.5 from absence of blood formation, and exhibit mis-specification of mesodermal cells into cardiomyocytes, thus offering an excellent entry point for mechanistic studies of fate determination. Using high-throughput assays from mouse ES cell-derived mesodermal cells, we showed that, in parallel with activating the blood program and repressing the cardiac and paraxial programs, SCL strongly activates expression of repressors, such as ETO2 (known partner of SCL) and RYBP (member of Polycomb repressive complex PRC1). ETO2’s association with chromatin reflects SCL’s overall genomic binding, pointing to ETO2’s modulatory, rather than purely repressive, transcriptional activities. In contrast, SCL/RYBP chromatin co-occupancy is preferentially enriched at genes normally repressed in blood-fated cells and involved in early developmental processes and alternative lineages, highlighting a relationship between SCL and RYBP/PRC1 in repressive processes. Remarkably, SCL is critical for maintaining high levels of PRC1-associated repressive histone mark H2AK119ub genome-wide. It is also required for maximal levels of repressive mark H3K27me3 on genes normally repressed. Finally, Rybp knock-down in differentiating ES cells phenocopies the cardiac phenotype of Scl-null cells, supporting a functional interaction between SCL and a critical repressive chromatin remodeling complex. Altogether, these data unveil the establishment of a repressive environment in mesodermal progenitors by a hematopoietic-specific transcriptional regulator. This leads to restriction of expression of regulators of alternative fates and uncompromised commitment towards a hematopoietic identity.
