Project description:Oct4 is an essential regulator of embryonic stem (ES) cell pluripotency in vivo and in vitro, as well as a key mediator of the reprogramming of somatic cells to form induced pluriopotent stem (iPS) cells. It is not known whether activation and/or repression of specific genes by Oct4 is relevant to these functions. Here we show that fusion proteins containing the coding sequence of Oct4 or Xlpou91 (the Xenopus homologue of Oct4) fused to activating regions, but not those fused to repressing regions, behave as Oct4, suppressing differentiation and promoting maintenance of undifferentiated phenotypes in vivo and in vitro. An Oct4 activation domain fusion supported ES cell self-renewal in vitro at lower concentrations than required for Oct4 while alleviating the ordinary requirement for the cytokine LIF. At still lower levels of the fusion, LIF-dependence was restored. We conclude that the necessary and sufficient function of Oct4 in promoting pluripotency is to activate specific target genes. Two independent clones from each cell line were used as biological replications. Cy3-CTP-labelled sample targets were prepared from 2.5 ?g of total RNA using the Low RNA Input Fluorescent Linear Amplification Kit (Agilent). Cy5-CTP-labelled reference target was produced from 2.5 ?g of Stratagene Universal Mouse Reference RNA. Purified target RNA were hybridized to the NIA Mouse 44K Microarray v3.0 (whole genome 60-mer oligo arrays, Agilent Technology, design ID 015087) (Carter et al., 2005) according to the manufacturer's protocol (Two-Colour Microarray-Based Gene Expression Analysis Protocol, Version 5.0.1). Slides were scanned with an Agilent DNA Microarray Scanner (model G2505-64120) at 100% PMT for the Cy3 channel and 10% PMT for the Cy5 channel with a scan resolution of 5µm. Data was analyzed using NIA Array Analysis (Sharov et al., 2005) using standard statistical conditions (FDR<0.05, 2-fold expression levels change) to unveil genes with changes in expression levels between the samples and controls.

Project description:Histone deacetylase 1 and 2 (HDAC1/2) are the core catalytic components of co-repressor complexes which modulate gene expression. In most cell types, deletion of both Hdac1 and Hdac2 is required to generate a discernible phenotype, suggesting their activity is largely redundant. We have therefore generated an embryonic stem cell (ES) line in which Hdac1 and Hdac2 can be inactivated simultaneously using a Tamoxifen inducible CreER fusion. Loss of HDAC1/2 results in a 60% reduction in total HDAC activity and a loss of cell viability. Cell death is cell cycle dependent, since differentiated, non-proliferating cells, retain their viability. Furthermore, we observe increased mitotic defects, lagging chromosomes and micronuclei, suggesting HDAC1/2 maintain chromosomal stability. Consistent with a critical role in the regulation of gene expression, microarray analysis of Hdac1/2 deleted cells reveals 1,708 differentially expressed genes. Significantly for the maintenance of stem cell self-renewal, we detected a reduction in the expression of the pluripotent transcription factors, Oct4, Nanog and Rex1. HDAC1/2 activity is regulated through binding of inositol tetraphosphate molecule [Ins(1,4,5,6)P4] (IP4) sandwiched between the HDAC and its cognate co-repressor. This raises the important question of whether the IP4 actually regulates the activity of the complex in cells. By rescuing the viability of DKO cells, we demonstrate for the first time that mutations which abolish IP4 binding reduce the activity of HDAC1/2 in vivo. Our data indicate that HDAC1/2 have a generic, but essential role in cellular proliferation and regulate stem cell self-renewal by maintaining expression of key pluripotent transcription factors. Comparative gene expression profiles of wild type (Day 0) were compared to Hdac1lox/lox, Hdac2lox/lox; CreER ES cells on days 1, 2 and 3 following for OHT treatment using the Illumina mouseWG-6 v2 expression BeadChip platform. wild type (Day 0) were compared to Hdac1lox/lox, Hdac2lox/lox; CreER ES cells on days 1, 2 and 3 following for OHT treatment. Four time points were analyzed in triplicate.

Project description:Transcription factors and chromatin modifiers play important roles in programming and reprogramming of cellular states during development. Much is known about the role of these regulators in gene activation, but relatively little is known about the critical process of enhancer silencing during differentiation. Here we show that the H3K4/K9 histone demethylase LSD1 plays an essential role in decommissioning enhancers during differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). LSD1 occupies enhancers of active genes critical for control of ESC state. However, LSD1 is not essential for maintenance of ESC identity. Instead, ESCs lacking LSD1 activity fail to fully differentiate and ESC-specific enhancers fail to undergo the histone demethylation events associated with differentiation. At enhancers, LSD1 is a component of the NuRD complex, which contains additional subunits that are necessary for ESC differentiation. We propose that the LSD1-NuRD complex decommissions enhancers of the pluripotency program upon differentiation, which is essential for complete shutdown of the ESC gene expression program and the transition to new cell states. This is the ChIP-seq part of the study.

Project description:The master transcription factors Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog bind enhancer elements and recruit the Mediator co-activator to activate much of the gene expression program of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We report here that these ESC master transcription factors and Mediator form M-bM-^@M-^\super-enhancersM-bM-^@M-^] at most genes that are known to control the pluripotent state, including those encoding the master transcription factors themselves. These super-enhancers consist of extraordinarily large genomic domains occupied by exceptional amounts of Oct4 and Mediator. Super-enhancers stimulate considerably higher transcription than typical enhancers in reporter vectors. ESC differentiation causes preferential loss of expression of super-enhancer -associated genes. Super-enhancers are also found at key cell identity genes in differentiated cells. These results implicate super-enhancers in the control of mammalian cell identity and differentiation and suggest that these elements might generally be used to identify genes that control cell-type specific gene expression programs in many mammalian cells.

Project description:We show here by using genome-wide ChIP-sequencing that lineage segregation involves multiple Sox/Oct partnership. In undifferentiated ES cells Oct4 interacts with Sox2 and both TFs bind on the 'canonical' motif, whereas in cells commited to PrE lineage Oct4 switches from Sox2 to Sox17 interaction and this complex bind to a unique "compressed" motif. ChIP-sequencing has been done for Sox2, Sox17 and Oct4 in the pluripotent context or PrE context

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:Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the embryonic precursors to egg and sperm. When removed from the embryonic gonad, PGCs can give rise to embryonic germ cell lines (EGs), pluripotent stem cells that display most of the characteristics of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) including the ability to form teratomas and to contribute to chimera formation. In mice, EG cells can be derived between E8.5 up to E12.5 of embryonic development, at which point the PGCs undergo sexual differentiation and in the male transition into unipotent gonocytes. Dazl, a germ cell-specific RNA-binding protein, is specifically expressed in developing PGCs and is required for proper germ cell development. Dazl knockout mice are infertile, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenotype are still unknown. Here we demonstrate that Dazl localizes in granular structures in mammalian PGCs but not in ESCs. We demonstrate Dazl plays a central role in a large mRNA/protein interactive network that includes members of Fragile-X family RNA-binding proteins. We demonstrate that Dazl and Fxr1 play a central role in these granules and directly regulate the translation of specific core pluripotency factors, including Sox2 and Suz12. Global gene expression changes following Dazl knockdown in in vitro primordial germ cells. In vitro primordial germ cells carrying control and Dazl knockdown shRNAs were generated from Oct4-GFP ES cells and isolated by FACS analysis. The global gene expression profiles were analyzed by Agilent Mouse Whole Genome 4X44K one-color microarrays.

Project description:Protein-protein proximity of core pluripotency transcription factors plays an important role during cell reprogramming. Pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cell identity is controlled by a trio of transcription factors: Sox2, Oct4, and Nanog. These proteins often bind to closely localized genomic sites. The precise mode by which Sox2, Oct4, and Nanog interact with DNA is likely to make a crucial contribution to their function. Here, a detailed protocol for in vivo detection and quantitative analysis of protein-protein proximity of Sox2 and Oct4 using Proximity Utilizing Biotinylation (PUB) method based on the use of the BAP/BirA (target/enzyme) system is described. The method includes design and cloning of DNA plasmid construct, transient transfection of HEK293T cells, Western blot analysis of nuclei fraction and LC-MS/MS analysis. Experiments with coexpression of BAP-X+BirA-Y (X, Y=Sox2, Oct4 and GFP as control) revealed strong biotinylation level of target proteins when X and Y were pluripotency transcription factors compared with control when X=GFP. Since mass spectrometry provides both high sensitivity and more accurate quantification of data a modified workflow was used, in which SDS-PAGE step was eliminated and His-tagged BAP-fused proteins from cell lysate were purified in 6M guanidine HCl buffer, washed, propionylated, digested directly on the Ni sepharose beads using trypsin and analysed on Q-TOF Impact II instrument. Using mass spectrometry allows making quantitative estimation of in vivo interaction of BAP-Sox2 and BirA-Oct4 which was demonstrated by measuring ratios of biotinylation levels of BAP fused either with Sox2 or GFP at different biotin pulse times. After vector preparation this protocol can be completed in seven working days.
