Project description:As an important post-transcriptional regulatory mechanism, asymmetric localization of mRNAs is essential for cell polarity and cell fate determination during early development. In an effort to understand localization of mRNAs encoding proteasome components during Xenopus oocyte-to-embryo transition, we discovered that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which is thought to mainly serve “house-keeping” roles in the cell, plays a multifaceted role in controlling localization of maternal RNAs. Our RNA-seq analysis of fractionated transcripts reveals that more than 40% of RNAs, including proteasome mRNAs, are present on the ER in Xenopus oocytes. After meiotic maturation, a large fraction of ER-associated RNA is released into the cytosol. The release of proteasome RNAs from the ER into the cytosol is conserved during mouse oocyte maturation. Our comparative proteomic analysis and ribonucleoprotein immunoprecipitation demonstrate that the majority of ER-associated RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) remain associated with the ER after oocyte maturation. However, all ER-associated RBPs analyzed exhibit reduced binding to some of their target RNAs after oocyte maturation, providing a mechanistic explanation for the dynamic regulation of RNA-ER association. We further show that the ER is remodeled massively during Xenopus oocyte maturation, leading to the formation of a widespread tubular ER network in the animal hemisphere that is required for the asymmetric localization of proteasome mRNAs in mature eggs. To our knowledge, our findings demonstrate for the first time that dynamic regulation of RNA-ER association and remodeling of the ER are fundamentally important for asymmetric localization of RNAs during development.

Project description:Small RNAs, such as miRNAs and siRNAs, are involved in gene regulation in a variety of systems, including mouse oocytes. Dicer is a ribonuclease III enzyme essential for miRNA and siRNA biosynthesis. In an effort to uncover the function of small RNAs during oocyte growth, we specifically deleted Dicer in growing oocytes and analyzed the global pattern of gene expression in these Dicer-deficient oocytes. Germinal vesicle-intact, fully grown oocytes were collected from eCG-primed wild-type or Dicer-deficient female mice and freed of attached cumulus cells by pipetting. Twenty oocytes per mouse were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on the MOE430 v2 Affymetrix microarray platform. Oocytes from four wild-type and four Dicer-knockout mice were analyzed.

Project description:Expression data from prepubertal, peripubertal, and adult derived mouse oocytes, and from germinal vesicle (GV), in vivo matured, and in vitro matured mouse oocytes. Oocytes derived from prepubertal females, or oocytes matured in vitro, are less developmentally competent compared to adult derived, or in vivo matured, oocytes, indicated by decreased embryonic development. One potential mechanism for decreased developmental potetential in prepubertal or in vitro matured oocytes is inadequate or inappropriate RNA degradation during oocyte maturation (progression from GV to MII). To investigate mechanisms involved in establishing oocyte cytoplasmic maturation and developmental competence, Affymetrix GeneChip microarrays were used. Keywords: Oocyte developmental competence The study encompassed three experimental designs using female B6D2F1 mice: 1) In vitro matured oocytes were obtained from d20 (prepubertal), d26 (peripubertal), and 7-8 wk old (adult) mice; 2) in vivo and in vitro matured oocytes were obtained from d26 mice; and 3) GV, in vivo matured, and in vitro matured oocytes were obtained from 7-8 wk old mice. RNA was extracted from pools of 150 oocytes and hybridized onto the Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Sex-reversed ‘XYSry-’ female mice that lack Sry due to the 11 kb deletion Srydl1Rlb have very limited fertility, partly due to the effects of posessing only a single X chromosome. However, the fertility deficit is even worse in sex-reversed XY females than in XO females, implicating Y-linked genes in the further loss of fertility. Transgenic addition of Yp-linked genes to XO females and also to normal XX females implicated Zfy2 (but not the related Zfy1) as the cause of this effect. This study examines the transcriptional effects of Zfy2 and Zfy1 in GV oocytes from normal XX females. 18 samples representing 3 biological replicates from each of 6 genotypes. Genotypes are XX (normal control); XX,Zfy2-nf (control with non-functional Zfy2 transgene); XX,Zfy2 (with Zfy2 transgene); XX,Zfy2+Eif2s3y (contaminated sample, XX with Zfy2 transgene and also an Eif2s3y transgene in proportion of the cells), XX,Zfy1-lo (with single-copy Zfy1 transgene); XX-Zfy1-hi (with multi-copy Zfy1 transgene).

Project description:In mammals, totipotent pre-implantation embryos are formed by fusion of highly differentiated oocytes and spermatozoa. Acquisition of totipotency concurs with remodeling of chromatin states of parental genomes (M-bM-^@M-^\epigenetic reprogrammingM-bM-^@M-^]), changes in maternally contributed transcriptome and proteome, and zygotic genome activation. Genomes of mature germ cells are more proficient in supporting embryonic development than those of somatic cells. It is currently unknown whether transgenerational inheritance of chromatin states present in mature gametes underlies the efficacy of early embryonic development after natural conception. Here, we show that Ring1 and Rnf2, two core components of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), serve redundant gene regulatory functions during oogenesis that are required to support embryonic development beyond the two-cell stage. Numerous developmental regulatory genes that are established Polycomb targets in various somatic cell types are de-repressed in Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant (dm) fully grown germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes. Translation of tested aberrant maternal transcripts is, however, delayed until after fertilization. Exchange of maternal pro-nuclei between control and Ring1/Rnf2 maternally dm early zygotes demonstrates an essential role for Ring1 and Rnf2 during oogenesis in defining cytoplasmic and nuclear maternal contributions that are both essential for proper initiation of embryonic development. A large number of genes up-regulated in Ring1/Rnf2 dm GV oocytes harbor PRC2-mediated histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in spermatozoa and in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), and are repressed during normal oogenesis and early embryogenesis. These data strongly support the model that Polycomb acts in the female and male germline to silence differentiation inducing genes and to program chromatin states, thereby sustaining developmental potential across generations. Expression profiling of fully grown mouse GV oocytes was performed with the following genotypes: Ring1+/+Rnf2F/F (control), Ring1-/-Rnf2F/F (Ring1 mutant), Ring1+/+Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Rnf2 mutant) and Ring1-/-Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant). 12 samples were analyzed: 3 biological replicates of each of the 4 genotypes (Ring1+/+Rnf2F/F (control), Ring1-/-Rnf2F/F (Ring1 mutant), Ring1+/+Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Rnf2 mutant) and Ring1-/-Rnf2F/FZp3-cre (Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant)). Each sample contains 50 GV oocytes.

Project description:Oocyte maturation is accompanied by a transition from mRNA stability to instability. We investigated the role of DCP1A and DCP2, proteins responsible for mRNA decapping, in mRNA destabilization during mouse oocyte maturation. siRNA-mediated knockdown of both Dcp1a and Dcp2 transcripts prior to initiation of maturation inhibited the maturation-associated increase of DCP1A and DCP2, stabilized a set of maternal mRNAs that are normally degraded during maturation, and inhibited development beyond the 2-cell stage, likely a consequence of failure to activate fully the zygotic genome. Total RNA from 30 MII eggs was used in each sample. Three independent biological replicates were analyzed for each condition.

Project description:We have identified eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E family member 1B (Eif4e1b) as a regulator of maternal RNA translation, whose maternal deletion leads to 2-cell arrest phenotype in mouse embryos. eIF4E1b protein binds mRNA selectively in oocytes and controls their translation in early embryos. We aim to profile the global changes in protein expression in metaphase II (MII) eggs and zygotes collected from control or Eif4e1b knockout female mice. An encapsulated proteomic-sample processing protocol is used to perform this low-input mass spectrometry to quantify proteomic changes (Kulak et al. 2014/PMID 24497582).
