Project description:The mechanisms whereby the crucial pluripotency transcription factor Oct4 regulates target gene expression are incompletely understood. Using an assay system based on partially differentiated embryonic stem cells, we show that Oct4 opposes accumulation of local H3K9me2, and subsequent Dnmt3a-mediated DNA methylation. Upon binding DNA, Oct4 recruits the histone lysine demethylase Jmjd1c. ChIP timecourse experiments identify a stepwise Oct4 mechanism involving Jmjd1c recruitment and H3K9me2 demethylation, transient FACT complex recruitment, and nucleosome depletion. Genome-wide and targeted ChIP confirms binding of newly-synthesized Oct4, together with Jmjd1c and FACT, to the Pou5f1 enhancer and a small number of other Oct4 targets, including the Nanog promoter. Histone demethylation is required for both FACT recruitment and H3 depletion. Jmjd1c is required to induce endogenous Oct4 expression and fully reprogram fibroblasts to pluripotency, indicating that the assay system identifies functional Oct4 cofactors. These findings indicate that Oct4 sequentially recruits activities that catalyze histone demethylation and depletion.

Project description:The nucleosome is a fundamental unit of chromatin in eukaryotes, and generally prevents the binding of transcription factors to genomic DNA. Pioneer transcription factors overcome the nucleosome barrier, and bind their target DNA sequences in chromatin. OCT4 is a representative pioneer transcription factor that plays a role in stem cell pluripotency. In the present study, we biochemically analyzed the nucleosome binding by OCT4. Crosslinking mass spectrometry showed that OCT4 binds the nucleosome.

Project description:Oct4 is considered a master transcription factor for pluripotent cell self-renewal and embryo development. It primarily collaborates with other transcriptional factors or coregulators to maintain pluripotency. However, it is still unclear how Oct4 interacts with its partners. Here, we show that the Oct4 linker interface mediates competing and balanced Oct4 protein interactions which are crucial for maintaining pluripotency. Linker mutant ESCs maintain the key pluripotency genes expression, but show decreased expression of self-renewal genes and increased expression of differentiation genes which result in impaired ESCs self-renewal and early embryonic lethality. Linker mutation dose not affect Oct4 genomic binding and transactivation potential, but breaks the balanced Oct4 interactome. In mutant ESCs, the interaction between Oct4 and Klf5 was decreased, but interactions between Oct4 and Cbx1, Ctr9, Cdc73 were increased which disrupt the epigenetic state of ESCs. Overexpression of Klf5 or knockdown Cbx1, Cdc73 rescue the cellular phenotype of linker mutant ESCs by rebalancing Oct4 interactome indicating that different partners interact with Oct4 competitively. Thus, by showing how Oct4 interacts with different partners, we provide novel molecular insights to explain how Oct4 contributes to the maintenance of pluripotency.

Project description:The aim of this study is to dissect the transcription factor OCT4 and reveal which parts of the protein are essential for interaction with nucleosomes and access to closed chromatin. We revealed that the DNA-binding domain mediates the interaction of OCT4 with nucleosomes. Remarkably, nucleosome-binding can be uncoupled from DNA-binding, diminishing the ability of OCT4 to access to closed chromatin, thus losing the pioneer function. We show that the pioneer function of OCT4 is not only essential during reprogramming differentiated cells to pluripotency but also during pluripotency maintenance of embryonic stem cells. Overall, this study shows how pioneer transcription factors interact with nucleosomes to engage the genome and control cellular identity, highlighting that nucleosomes are not always barriers to genome accessibility .

Project description:Oct4 is a master regulator of pluripotency. Potential Oct4 interactors have been cataloged extensively but the manner and significance of these interactions are incompletely defined. Like other POU domain proteins, Oct4 is capable of binding to DNA in multiple configurations, however the relationship between these configurations and cofactor recruitment (and hence transcription output) are unknown. Here, we show that Oct4 interacts with common and unique proteins when bound to DNA in different configurations. One of these proteins is Jade1, a component of the HBO histone acetyltransferase complex. Jade1 preferentially associates with Oct4 when bound to More palindromic Octamer-Related Element (MORE) DNA sequences that bind Oct4 dimers and are associated with strong gene expression. We show that the Oct4 N-terminus is critical for this interaction. ChIP-seq using HBO1, the enzymatic component of the complex, identifies a preference for binding adjacent to Oct4 at MORE sites. Using purified recombinant proteins and nucleosome complexes, we show that the HBO1 complex acetylates histone H3K9 within nucleosomes more efficiently when Oct4 is co-bound to a MORE site. Histone acetylation is further increased when Oct4 is mutated to favor dimeric MORE binding. Cryo-electron microscopy reveals that Oct4 bound to a MORE near the nucleosome entry/exit site partially unwinds DNA from nucleosome core particles, and identifies additional mass associated with the HBO1 complex. These results identify a novel mechanism of transcriptional regulation by Oct4.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The transcription factor OCT4 is highly expressed in pluripotent embryonic stem cells which are derived from the inner cell mass of mammalian blastocysts. Pluripotency and self renewal are controlled by a transcription regulatory network governed by the transcription factors OCT4, SOX2 and NANOG. Recent studies on reprogramming somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells highlight OCT4 as a key regulator of pluripotency.
RESULTS: We have carried out an integrated analysis of high-throughput data (ChIP-on-chip and RNAi experiments along with promoter sequence analysis of putative target genes) and identified a core OCT4 regulatory network in human embryonic stem cells consisting of 33 target genes. Enrichment analysis with these target genes revealed that this integrative analysis increases the functional information content by factors of 1.3 - 4.7 compared to the individual studies. In order to identify potential regulatory co-factors of OCT4, we performed a de novo motif analysis. In addition to known validated OCT4 motifs we obtained binding sites similar to motifs recognized by further regulators of pluripotency and development; e.g. the heterodimer of the transcription factors C-MYC and MAX, a prerequisite for C-MYC transcriptional activity that leads to cell growth and proliferation.
CONCLUSION: Our analysis shows how heterogeneous functional information can be integrated in order to reconstruct gene regulatory networks. As a test case we identified a core OCT4-regulated network that is important for the analysis of stem cell characteristics and cellular differentiation. Functional information is largely enriched using different experimental results. The de novo motif discovery identified well-known regulators closely connected to the OCT4 network as well as potential new regulators of pluripotency and differentiation. These results provide the basis for further targeted functional studies.

Project description:The mammalian FACT complex is a highly conserved histone chaperone with essential roles in transcription elongation, histone deposition, and maintenance of stem cell state. FACT is essential for viability in pluripotent cells and cancer cells, but otherwise dispensable for most mammalian cell types. FACT deletion or inhibition can block reprogramming of fibroblasts to induced pluripotent stem cells, yet the molecular mechanisms through which FACT regulates cell fate decisions remain unclear. To determine the mechanism by which FACT regulates stem cell identity, we used the auxin-inducible degron systems to deplete murine embryonic stem cells of FACT subunit SPT16 and subjected depleted cells to genome-wide factor localization, nascent transcription analyses, and genome-wide nucleosome profiling. Inducible depletion of SPT16 reveals a critical role in regulating targets of the master regulators of pluripotency: OCT4, KLF4, MYC, NANOG, and SOX2. Depletion of SPT16 leads to increased nucleosome occupancy at genomic loci occupied by these transcription factors, as well as gene-distal regulatory sites defined by DNaseI hypersensitivity. This heightened occupancy suggests a mechanism of nucleosome filling, wherein the sites typically maintained in an accessible state by FACT are occluded through loss of FACT-regulated nucleosome spacing. 20% of transcription arising from gene-distal regions bound by these factors is directly dependent on FACT, and putative gene targets of these non-coding RNAs are highly enriched for pluripotency in pathway analyses. Upon FACT depletion, transcription of Pou5f1 (OCT4), Sox2, and Nanog are downregulated, suggesting that FACT not only co-regulates expression of the encoded proteins’ targets, but also the pluripotency factors themselves. We find that FACT maintains cellular pluripotency through a complex regulatory network of both coding and non-coding transcription.
