GATA Factor-Mediated Gene Regulation in Human Erythropoiesis.

ABSTRACT: Erythroid commitment and differentiation are regulated by the coordinated action of a host of transcription factors, including GATA2 and GATA1. Here, we explored GATA-mediated transcriptional regulation through the integrative analysis of gene expression, chromatin modifications, and GATA factors' binding in human multipotent hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, early erythroid progenitors, and late precursors. A progressive loss of H3K27 acetylation and a diminished usage of active enhancers and super-enhancers were observed during erythroid commitment and differentiation. GATA factors mediate transcriptional changes through a stage-specific interplay with regulatory elements: GATA1 binds different sets of regulatory elements in erythroid progenitors and precursors and controls the transcription of distinct genes during commitment and differentiation. Importantly, our results highlight a pivotal role of promoters in determining the transcriptional program activated upon erythroid differentiation. Finally, we demonstrated that GATA1 binding to a stage-specific super-enhancer sustains the expression of the KIT receptor in human erythroid progenitors.

GATA factor-mediated gene regulation in human erythropoiesis (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Human erythropoiesis is a stepwise process in which multipotent hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) are initially committed towards the erythroid lineage and then differentiated into mature erythroid precursors. Commitment and differentiation are tightly regulated by the coordinated action of a host of transcription factors, including GATA2 and GATA1. Although the role of GATA factors in erythropoiesis has been extensively studied, how they regulate transcription from early to late stages of human erythropoiesis still remains underinvestigated. Here, we investigated GATA-mediated transcriptional regulation along erythroid development through the integrative analysis of gene expression, chromatin modifications, and GATA factors’ binding in human HSPC, early erythroid progenitors, and late precursors. A progressive loss of H3K27 acetylation, a mark of active regulatory elements, and diminished usage of active enhancers and super-enhancers was observed during erythroid lineage commitment and differentiation. We found that GATA factors mediate the transcriptional changes occurring during erythropoiesis through a stage-specific interplay with regulatory elements. In particular, GATA1 binds different sets of regulatory elements in early progenitors and late precursors, and controls the transcription of distinct genes in commitment and differentiation. By Chromosome Conformation Capture and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing, we demonstrated that the binding of GATA1 to a stage-specific super-enhancer sustains the expression of the stem cell factor receptor KIT in human erythroid progenitors. This study provides insights into the dynamics of epigenetic and transcriptional interactions during erythroid development and highlights a new layer of GATA1-mediated regulation in erythropoiesis.

Silencing of Agamma-globin gene expression during adult definitive erythropoiesis mediated by GATA-1-FOG-1-Mi2 complex binding at the -566 GATA site.

Project description:Autonomous silencing of gamma-globin transcription is an important developmental regulatory mechanism controlling globin gene switching. An adult stage-specific silencer of the (A)gamma-globin gene was identified between -730 and -378 relative to the mRNA start site. A marked copy of the (A)gamma-globin gene inserted between locus control region 5' DNase I-hypersensitive site 1 and the epsilon-globin gene was transcriptionally silenced in adult beta-globin locus yeast artificial chromosome (beta-YAC) transgenic mice, but deletion of the 352-bp region restored expression. This fragment reduced reporter gene expression in K562 cells, and GATA-1 was shown to bind within this sequence at the -566 GATA site. Further, the Mi2 protein, a component of the NuRD complex, was observed in erythroid cells with low gamma-globin levels, whereas only a weak signal was detected when gamma-globin was expressed. Chromatin immunoprecipitation of fetal liver tissue from beta-YAC transgenic mice demonstrated that GATA-1, FOG-1, and Mi2 were recruited to the (A)gamma-globin -566 or (G)gamma-globin -567 GATA site when gamma-globin expression was low (day 18) but not when gamma-globin was expressed (day 12). These data suggest that during definitive erythropoiesis, gamma-globin gene expression is silenced, in part, by binding a protein complex containing GATA-1, FOG-1, and Mi2 at the -566/-567 GATA sites of the proximal gamma-globin promoters.

Regulation of sperm gene expression by the GATA factor ELT-1.

Project description:Cell fate specification is mediated primarily through the expression of cell-type-specific genes. The regulatory pathway that governs the sperm/egg decision in the hermaphrodite germ line of Caenorhabditis elegans has been well characterized, but the transcription factors that drive these developmental programs remain unknown. We report the identification of ELT-1, a GATA transcription factor that specifies hypodermal fate in the embryo, as a regulator of sperm-specific transcription in the germ line. Computational analysis identified a conserved bipartite sequence element that is found almost exclusively in the promoters of a number of sperm genes. ELT-1 was recovered in a yeast one-hybrid screen for factors that bind to that sperm consensus site. In vitro assays defined the sperm consensus sequence as an optimal binding site for ELT-1. We determined that expression of elt-1 is elevated in the sperm-producing germ line, and that ELT-1 is required for sperm function. Deletion of the ELT-1 binding site from a sperm promoter abrogates sperm-specific expression of a reporter transgene. This work demonstrates a role for the ELT-1 transcription factor in sperm, and provides a critical link between the germ line sex determination program and gamete-specific gene expression.

Regulation of J6 gene expression by transcription factor GATA-4.

Project description:Retinoic acid-induced differentiation of mouse F9 embryonal carcinoma cells into primitive endoderm is accompanied by increased transcription of the gene for J6, a heat shock protein implicated in collagen biosynthesis. In this paper we present evidence that transcription factor GATA-4, a retinoic acid-inducible GATA-binding protein, is involved in the regulation of J6 gene expression in F9 cells. Northern-blot analysis indicates that transcripts encoding GATA-4 and J6 increase in parallel during retinoic acid-induced differentiation of F9 cells. Gel-shift experiments and antibody binding studies demonstrate that: (1) GATA-4 is the major GATA-binding protein activity in differentiated F9 cells, and (2) GATA-4 binds to consensus GATA motifs in the retinoic acid-responsive portion of the J6 promoter. Co-transfection studies using NIH 3T3 cells show that GATA-4 is a potent trans-activator of the J6 promoter. These lines of evidence suggest that expression of J6 in F9 cells is regulated by GATA-4. We speculate that transcription factor GATA-4 may also control other genes involved in extracellular matrix formation in the yolk sac.

Down-regulation of GATA-3 expression during human papillomavirus-mediated immortalization and cervical carcinogenesis.

Project description:To identify cellular genes that may be involved in human papillomavirus (HPV)-mediated immortalization mRNA differential display analysis was performed on preimmortal and subsequent immortal stages of four human keratinocyte cell lines transformed by HPV type 16 or 18 DNA. This yielded a cDNA fragment encoding the transcription factor GATA-3 that was strongly reduced in intensity in all immortal stages of the four cell lines. A marked reduction in both GATA-3 mRNA and protein expression in HPV-immortalized cell lines was confirmed by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry and was also shown to be apparent in cervical carcinoma cell lines. Immunohistochemical analysis of cervical tissue specimens showed a clear nuclear staining for GATA-3 in normal cervical squamous epithelium (n = 14) and all cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) I (n = 6) and CIN II lesions (n = 2). In contrast, 11% (1 of 9) of CIN III lesions and 67% (8 of 12) of cervical squamous cell carcinomas revealed a complete absence of GATA-3 immunostaining. Hence, complete down-regulation of GATA-3 expression represents a rather late event during cervical carcinogenesis. Whether GATA-3 down-regulation is etiologically involved in HPV-mediated immortalization and cervical carcinogenesis remains to be examined.
