To analyze OTX2 function in adult choroid plexus, we performed several OTX2 co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) experiments with mass spectrometry analysis to identify potential protein partners. We previously discovered that OTX2 protein also accumulates non-cell autonomously in subventricular zone (SVZ...
In this study, we demonstrated that OTX2 was transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally regulated by O-GlcNAcylation. We describe the modes of degradation of this essential homeobox protein involving both the proteasome and macroautophagy. While the proteasome remains the canonical degradation pat...
We compared gene expression profiles in wild-type and Otx2(-/-) 6.5 days postcoitum embryos by using a serial analysis of gene expression assay adapted to microdissected structures. Among a broader list, the study of six genes found to be differentially expressed allows defining a role for Otx2 in t...
The choroid plexuses (ChPs) are the main regulators of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) composition and thereby also control the composition of a principal source of signaling molecules that is in direct contact with neural stem cells in the developing brain. The regulators of ChP development mediating the...
The transcription factor OTX2 has been implicated as an oncogene in medulloblastoma, which is the most common malignant brain tumor in children. It is highly expressed in most medulloblastomas and amplified in a subset of them. The role of OTX2 in medulloblastoma and its downstream targets are uncle...
HDMB03 cells were transiently transfected with plasmids expressing NLS-TurboID or 3xHA-TurboID-OTX2 under the control of a strong CAG promoter. After a 15-minute pulse with 500 µM exogenous biotin, RIPA lysates were prepared and processed with streptavin-sepharose to capture biotinylated proteins th...
Gene expression was studied in the presence or absence of Otx2 (RNAi) in the Rex1GFPd2 mouse embryonic stem cell line (parental line; E14Tg2a) in undifferentiated and differentiated states.
