Project description:Cellular totipotency is critical for generating a whole organism, yet how to establish totipotency is still poorly illustrated. Unlike pluripotent stem cells, abundant transposable elements (TEs) are activated in the totipotent cells. Here, we show that histone chaperone RBBP4 but not its homologous RBBP7 is indispensable in maintaining the identity of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Auxin-induced degradation of RBBP4, but not RBBP7, reprograms pluripotent state to a totipotent-like (also known as 2C-like) state. Mechanistically, RBBP4 could recruit G9a and KAP1 to bind on retrotransposons, especially endogenous retroviruses. RBBP4 degradation reduces the binding of G9a-mediated H3K9me2 on ERVL (particularly MERVL) and KAP1-mediated H3K9me3 on ERV1/ERVK, respectively. Moreover, RBBP4 facilitates nucleosome occupancy through chromatin remodeler CHD4 and RBBP4 depletion leads to attenuation of CHD4 binding and nucleosome occupancy on TEs. Together, our study reveals the important roles of RBBP4 in heterochromatin assembly and its loss activates TEs in mESCs, opening a new way to obtain totipotent cells in vitro.

Project description:Cellular totipotency is critical for whole-organism generation, yet how totipotency is established remains poorly illustrated. Abundant transposable elements (TEs) are activated in totipotent cells, which is critical for embryonic totipotency. Here, we show that the histone chaperone RBBP4, but not its homolog RBBP7, is indispensable for maintaining the identity of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Auxin-induced degradation of RBBP4, but not RBBP7, reprograms mESCs to the totipotent 2C-like cells. Also, loss of RBBP4 enhances transition from mESCs to trophoblast cells. Mechanistically, RBBP4 binds to the endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) and functions as an upstream regulator by recruiting G9a to deposit H3K9me2 on ERVL elements, and recruiting KAP1 to deposit H3K9me3 on ERV1/ERVK elements, respectively. Moreover, RBBP4 facilitates the maintenance of nucleosome occupancy at the ERVK and ERVL sites within heterochromatin regions through the chromatin remodeler CHD4. RBBP4 depletion leads to the loss of the heterochromatin marks and activation of TEs and 2C genes. Together, our findings illustrate that RBBP4 is required for heterochromatin assembly and is a critical barrier for inducing cell fate transition from pluripotency to totipotency.

Project description:Totipotent cells have the ability of generating embryonic and extra-embryonic tissues. Interestingly, a rare population of cells with totipotent-like potential was identified within ESC cultures. These cells, known as 2 cell (2C)-like cells, arise from ESC and display similar features to those found in the totipotent 2 cell embryo. However, the molecular determinants of 2C like conversion have not been completely elucidated. Here, we show that CTCF is a barrier for 2C-like reprogramming. Indeed, forced conversion to a 2C-like state by DUX expression was associated with DNA damage at a subset of CTCF binding sites. Endogenous or DUX-induced 2C-like ESC showed decreased CTCF enrichment at known binding sites, suggesting that acquisition of a totipotent-like state is associated with a highly dynamic chromatin architecture. Accordingly, depletion of CTCF in ESC efficiently promoted spontaneous and asynchronous conversion to a totipotent-like state. This phenotypic reprogramming was reversible upon restoration of CTCF levels. Furthermore, we showed that transcriptional activation of the ZSCAN4 cluster was necessary for successful 2C-like reprogramming. In summary, we revealed the intimate relation between CTCF and totipotent-like reprogramming.
