Project description:Transcriptional Control of C. elegans Male Tail Tip Morphogenesis by DMD-3
| PRJNA1189146 | ENA
Project description:How transcriptional regulators are linked to cell biological effectors of morphogenesis is not fully understood. To elucidate this linkage, we use the C. elegans male tail-tip as a model. The tail-tip is made of four cells that, in males, undergo changes in shape and position during the L4 stage. The transcription factor DMD-3 is the master regulator of this Tail-Tip Morphogenesis (TTM). To identify other genes involved in TTM, the lab has previously performed a genome-wide RNAi screen and conducted an RNA-seq differential expression (DE) analysis using tail tips isolated from L4 wild-type and dmd-3 mutant males. This yielded candidates for genes downstream of and regulated by DMD-3 directly or indirectly. To identify the direct targets of DMD-3, we conducted male-specific DMD-3 ChIP-seq on whole worms during TTM. We identified 1755 DMD-3 binding peaks representing 6061 genes and a de novo DMD-3-associated binding motif, sharing similarity to the chromatin binding factor, EOR-1. Integrating this data with the previous RNAi screen and the DE analysis, we found 270 candidates for direct DMD-3 targets in tail-tip cells. To validate these candidates, we inserted GFP into the endogenous loci using CRISPR and evaluated the expression of the fusion proteins. We then deleted the sequences associated with DMD-3 ChIP peaks or the DMD-3-associated binding motif and assessed if this resulted in a protein expression change or defective TTM. We found four genes where deletion of a peak had an effect: The transcription factor FOS-1 is expressed in nuclei of male tail tips during TTM and in the vulva. Deletion of a DMD-3 peak or DMD-3-associated motif sites abolishes expression in male tail-tip nuclei. NMY-2 is localized as a “cap” at the tip of the tail during TTM. Removal of the peak reduces the level of tail tip NMY-2 expression. The pan-1 locus has two peaks. PAN-1::GFP is first seen in puncta at the cell surface, then at basal lateral membranes. Removal of the distal peak causes TTM defects in 10% of screened males, while removal of both peaks leads to global, previously reported, pan-1 phenotypes. HMR-1 is expressed at adherens junctions at the onset of TTM and later forms puncta at the cell surface. Deleting the peak has little effect on expression but results in epidermal bulges in both sexes, including the mail tail region. Because of the global phenotypes observed in peak mutants, we hypothesize the peak regions contain binding sites for other factors. Additionally, using extrachromosomal arrays, we tested and confirmed the DMD-3-associated motif’s contribution to wild-type TTM.

Project description:Protemics of anolis carolinensis tails undergoing regeneration.
As amniote vertebrates, lizards are the most closely related organisms to humans capable of appendage regeneration. Lizards can autotomize, or release their tails as a means of predator evasion, and subsequently regenerate a functional replacement. Green anoles (Anolis carolinensis) can regenerate their tails through a process that involves differential expression of hundreds of genes, which has previously been analyzed by transcriptomic and microRNA analysis. To investigate protein expression in regenerating tissue, we performed whole proteomic analysis of regenerating tail tip and base. This is the first proteomic data set available for the green anole lizard. We identified 976 proteins only in the regenerating tail base, 796 only in the tail tip, and 874 in both tip and base. For 90% of these proteins in these tissues, we were able to assign a clear orthology to gene models in either the Ensembl or NCBI databases. For 20 proteins in the tail base (2.5%), 7 proteins in the tail tip (0.9%), and 7 proteins in both regions (0.8%), the gene model in Ensembl and NCBI matched an uncharacterized protein, confirming that these predictions are present in the proteome. Ontology and pathways analysis of proteins expressed in the regenerating tail base identified categories including actin filament-based process, ncRNA metabolism, regulation of phosphatase activity, small GTPase mediated signal transduction, and cellular component organization or biogenesis. Analysis of proteins expressed in the tail tip identified categories including regulation of organelle organization, regulation of protein localization, ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolism, small GTPase mediated signal transduction, morphogenesis of epithelium, and regulation of biological quality. These proteomic findings confirm pathways and gene families activated in tail regeneration in the green anole as well as identify uncharacterized proteins whose role in regrowth remains to be revealed.

Project description:Morphogenesis of cellecting duct system within developing mouse kidney is driven by growth at the tips of ureteric epithelium. To characterize the transcription program within the tip compartment, here we performed mRNA-Seq of tip cells (Wnt11RFP+;Hoxb7+ cells) and stalk cells (Wnt11RFP-;Hoxb7GFP+ cells) obtained from mouse embryonic kidney through FACS. We identified tip-specific genes from these data, and verified with in situ hybridization and followed up with mechanistic study for some of the intersting targets.

Project description:The Mexican axolotl provides a powerful model to investigate mechanisms of tissue regeneration. A recent chemical screen found that HDAC inhibitor romidepsin, administered for only 1-minute post amputation (1 MPA), blocks axolotl tail regeneration. Here, we tested the potential for cobalt chloride (CoCl2), a chemical stabilizer of HIF1a and inducer of hypoxia, to rescue romidepsin-inhibition of tail regeneration. Tail regeneration was partially rescued when embryos with amputated tails were co-treated with romidepsin and CoCl2. However, extending the CoCl2 dosage window either inhibited regeneration (CoCl2:0-30 MPA) or was lethal (CoCl2:0-24 hours post amputation; HPA). CoCl2:0-30 MPA caused tissue damage, tissue loss, and cell death at the distal tail tip, and blocked regeneration. In contrast, CoCl2 treatment of non-amputated embryos or CoCl2:60-90 MPA treatment of amputated embryos did not affect wound healing or inhibit tail regeneration. To further investigate the contrasting effects of CoCl2, microarray analysis was performed to identify differentially expressed genes at 3 HPA. CoCl2-romidepsin:1 MPA treatment significantly increased the expression of transcription factors associated with appendage regeneration, while CoCl2:0-30 MPA significantly increased expression of hemoglobin and platelet-specific transcripts, consistent with hemorrhage and an impaired hemostatic response. Also, CoCl2:0-30 MPA significantly increased expression of hypoxia inducible genes, including genes that encode Hif1a interacting proteins and heat shock proteins (HSP); in contrast, genes encoding TGFB signaling components were significantly downregulated. Using additional chemical inhibitors of tail regeneration, we identified transcriptional responses associated with HSP90 activity and TGFB signaling. Notably, geldanamcin decreased transcription of matrix metalloproteinases and sustained muscle-specific gene expression, suggesting a role for HSP90 in regulating extracellular matrix remodeling and muscle dedifferentiation. Our study shows the power of using chemical tools to precisely identify temporal windows within which critical biological processes are enacted during tissue regeneration.

Project description:To advance our understanding of the genetic programs that drive cell and tissue specialization, it is necessary to obtain a comprehensive overview of gene expression patterns. Here, we have used spatial transcriptomics to generate high-resolution, anteroposterior gene expression maps of C. elegans males and hermaphrodites. To explore these maps, we have developed computational methods for discovering region- and tissue-specific genes. We have found extensive sex-specific gene expression differences in the germline and sperm and discovered genes that are specifically expressed in the male reproductive tract. These include a group of uncharacterized genes that encode small secreted proteins that are required for male fertility. We conclude that spatial gene expression maps provide a powerful resource for identifying tissue-specific gene functions in C. elegans. Importantly, we found that expression maps from different animals can be precisely aligned, enabling transcriptome-wide comparisons of gene expression patterns.

Project description:Whole genome expression analyses reveal little evidence for X chromosome dosage compensation or meiotic inactivation in Drosophila testes, whereas testes-specific transgene reporters suggest a novel form of X chromosome-specific regulation. Gene expression was measured in RNA extracted from adult male and female dissected thorax, and in cells dissected from the apical tip of 2-4 day old adult male testes. Each tissue was assayed on four replicate arrays.
