Identification of TWIST1 transcriptoinal targets in the cranial mesoderm [WNT1 vs. MESP1]

ABSTRACT: TWIST1, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor is essential for the development of cranial mesoderm and cranial neural crest-derived craniofacial structures. Our previous work showed that, in the absence of TWIST1, some cells within the cranial mesoderm adopt an abnormal epithelial configuration. Here, we show by transcriptome analysis that loss of TWIST1 in the cranial mesoderm is accompanied by a reduction in the expression of genes that are associated with cell-extracellular matrix interactions and the acquisition of mesenchymal characteristics. By comparing the transcriptional profiles of cranial mesoderm-specific Twist1 loss-of-function mutant and control mouse embryos, we identified a set of genes that are both TWIST1-dependent and predominantly expressed in the mesoderm. By ChIP-seq in a cell line model of a TWIST1-dependent mesenchymal state, we identified, among the downstream genes, three direct transcriptional targets of TWIST1: Ddr2, Pcolce and Tgfbi. Our findings show that the mesenchymal properties of the cranial mesoderm is likely to be regulated by a network of TWIST1 targets genes that influence the extracellular matrix and cell-matrix interactions, and collectively they are required for the morphogenesis of the craniofacial structures. Cranial neural crest and cranial mesoderm cells were isolated by flow sorting of GFP reporter-labelled cells collected from heads of E9.5 mouse embryos. Three replicates were independently isolated and hybridized to Illumina mouse WG v 2.0 chips

Chromatin extracts were subject to chromatin immunoprecipitation with anti TWIST1 monoclonal antibody (ChIP-seq). Input chromatin, not subject to ChIP was used as the negative control. Two independent replicate experiments were performed. Purified, immunoprecipitated DNA was sequenced at Australian Genome Research facility.

For microarray analysis of CM-CKO embryos, embryo heads of four genotypes were collected at E8.5 (5-7 somites) and E9.5 (18- 20 somites): CM-CKO (Twist1flox/del; Mesp1Cre/+), CM-Het (Twist1flox/wt; Mesp1Cre/+), Het (Twist1flox/del; Mesp1+/+) and Control (Twist1flox/wt; Mesp1+/+). Sample sizes for E8.5 embryos were as follows: Control, n=4 CM-CKO, n=4; Het, n=3; CM-Hets, n=3).

TWIST1 direct targets during embryonic stem cell differentiation

Project description:Twist1 encodes a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor and is a key regulator of craniofacial development. Mutations of TWIST1 gene in human are associated with Saethre-Chotzen syndrome (SCS), a developmental disorder characterized by facial and skull malformations, which are phenocopied by Twist1-null heterozygous mice. Mechanisms that dictate the tissue-specificity of Twist1 in regulating distinct transcriptional targets in different craniofacial cell types remain to be determined. Our work using mass-spectrometry and co-expression analysis in cell lines and embryonic head tissues has revealed that the most prevalent forms of TWIST1 were homodimers and heterodimers with E-proteins (TCF3,TCF4 and TCF12). RNA-seq analysis of embryoid bodies expressing tethered TWIST-E-protein dimers, and ChIP-seq profiling of TWIST1 genome-wide binding sites revealed mechanisms of TWIST1 functional regulation. This study highlighted the pleiotropic roles of TWIST1 dimers in development and revealed a potential molecular mechanism underpinning Twist1-related developmental defects of craniofacial tissues.

Gene expression profile of FACS sorted cranial neural crest cells from E12.5-E13.5 mouse embryonic head

Project description:Craniofacial morphogenesis depends on complex cell fate decisions during the differentiation of post-migratory cranial neural crest cells. Molecular mechanisms of cell differentiation of mesenchymal cells to developing bones, cartilage, teeth, tongue, and other craniofacial tissues are still poorly understood. We performed single-cell transcriptomic analysis of craniofacial mesenchymal cells derived from cranial NCCs in mouse embryo. Using FACS sorting of Wnt1-Cre2 progeny, we carefully map the cell heterogeneity in the craniofacial region during the initial stages of bone and cartilage formation.
