TFAP2C regulates transcription in human naive pluripotency by opening enhancers

ABSTRACT: Naive and primed pluripotent human embryonic stem cells bear transcriptional similarity to pre- and post-implantation epiblast and thus constitute a developmental model for understanding the pluripotent stages in human embryo development. To identify new transcription factors that differentially regulate the unique pluripotent stages, we mapped open chromatin using ATAC-seq and found enrichment of the activator protein-2 (AP2) transcription factor binding motif at naive-specific open chromatin. We determined that the AP2 family member TFAP2C is upregulated during primed to naive reversion and becomes widespread at naive-specific enhancers. TFAP2C functions to maintain pluripotency and repress neuroectodermal differentiation during the transition from primed to naive by facilitating the opening of enhancers proximal to pluripotency factors. Additionally, we identify a previously undiscovered naive-specific POU5F1 (OCT4) enhancer enriched for TFAP2C binding. Taken together, TFAP2C establishes and maintains naive human pluripotency and regulates OCT4 expression by mechanisms that are distinct from mouse.

The TFAP2C-Regulated OCT4 Naive Enhancer Is Involved in Human Germline Formation

Project description:Human primordial germ cells (hPGCs) are the first embryonic progenitors in the germ cell lineage, yet the molecular mechanisms required for hPGC formation are not well characterized. To identify regulatory regions in hPGC development, we used the assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) to systematically characterize regions of open chromatin in hPGCs and hPGC-like cells (hPGCLCs) differentiated from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). We discovered regions of open chromatin unique to hPGCs and hPGCLCs that significantly overlap with TFAP2C-bound enhancers identified in the naive ground state of pluripotency. Using CRISPR/Cas9, we show that deleting the TFAP2C-bound naive enhancer at the OCT4 locus (also called POU5F1) results in impaired OCT4 expression and a negative effect on hPGCLC identity.

BMP4 Resets Primed to Naive Pluripotency by Reprogramming Chromatin Accessibility [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Mouse naive and primed pluripotent stem cells, ESC and EpiSC, represent two distinct stages of pluripotency. Here we report that BMP4 drives primed to naive transition or PNT by reprogramming chromatin accessibility. ATAC-seq reveals that a short pulse of BMP4 triggers EpiSCs to close 26409 and open 6428 loci to reach an intermediate state that continue to open 18744 and close 7042 loci under 2iL until reaching a naive state, following with a dramatic reactivation of the silenced X chromosome. Among loci opened by BMP4 are those encoding Id1, Tfap2c/2a and Zbtb7b that synergistically drive PNT without BMP4. Tfap2c-/- ESCs or EpiSCs self-renew normally, while the former capable of differentiating to the latter but the latter fails to undergo PNT, a defect rescuable by exogenous Tfap2c. Our results link BMP4 to PNT through a binary logic of chromatin closing and opening, revealing the intrinsic power of extracellular factors to reorganize nuclear architecture in development.

OCT4 cooperates with distinct chromatin remodelers in naive and primed pluripotent states in human [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Understanding the molecular underpinnings of pluripotency is a prerequisite for optimal maintenance and application of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We mapped the protein-protein interactions of OCT4 in naive and primed hESCs, revealing extensive connections to ATP-dependent nucleosome remodeling complexes. In naive hESCs, OCT4 is associated with both BRG1 and BRM, the two mutually exclusive ATPase subunits of the BAF complex. Genome-wide location analyses and genetic deletion studies reveal that these two enzymes exert a functionally redundant role in transcriptional regulation of blastocyst-specific genes. In contrast, OCT4 cooperates with BRG1 and the transcription factor SOX2 to create an open chromatin architecture at neural lineage-associated genes in primed hESCs. This work offers insight into the regulation of human stem cell identity and reveals how a common transcription factor utilizes differential compositions of the BAF complex in controlling distinct transcriptional programs governing naive vs. primed human pluripotent states.

Regulation of Histone Acetylation by SUMOylation Through TFAP2C Binding to the Chromatin and Recruitment of HDAC Complex

Project description:Enhancers are fundamental to gene regulation. Post-translational modifications by the small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMO) modify chromatin regulation enzymes, including histone acetylases and deacetylases. However, it remains unclear whether SUMOylation regulates enhancer marks, acetylation at the 27th lysine residue of the histone H3 protein (H3K27Ac). We hypothesize that SUMOylation regulates H3K27Ac. To test this hypothesis, we performed genome-wide ChIP-seq analyses. We discovered that knockdown (KD) of the SUMO activating enzyme catalytic subunit UBA2 reduced H3K27Ac at most enhancers. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that TFAP2C-binding sites are enriched in enhancers whose H3K27Ac was reduced by UBA2 KD. ChIP-seq analysis in combination with molecular biological methods showed that TFAP2C binding to enhancers increased upon UBA2 KD or inhibition of SUMOylation by a small molecule SUMOylation inhibitor. However, this is not due to the SUMOylation of TFAP2C itself. Proteomics analysis of TFAP2C interactome on the chromatin identified histone deacetylation (HDAC) machinery. TFAP2C KD reduced HDAC binding to chromatin and increased H3K27Ac marks at enhancer regions, suggesting that TFAP2C is involved in recruiting HDAC. Taken together, our findings provide important insights into regulation of enhancer marks by SUMOylation.

Gene expression profiles of human dermal fibroblasts and human pluripotent stem cells analyzed by bulk RNA-seq

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells have two major pluripotent states, primed and naive, and the heterogeneity among cell lines in each pluripotent state remains a major unresolved problem. We showed that the overexpression of H1FOO-DD, which has a short expression period by fusing the destabilized domain to the maternal-specific linker histone H1FOO, together with OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and LMYC in human somatic cells improves the quality of reprogramming to primed and naive pluripotency.
