Project description:ETS-related transcription factors ETV4 and ETV5 play crucial roles for organogenesis and morphogenesis. We compared the transcriptional profiles between wild-type and ETV4 and ETV5 double knockout (ETV4/5 dKO) ES cells by an oligo DNA microarray analysis. Self-renewal capacity and pluripotency are known to be controlled by an ES cell-specific transcription factor network; therefore, we focused on transcription-associated genes. Of 1258 transcription-related genes, 47 genes were significantly downregulated and 98 genes were significantly upregulated in ETV4/5 dKO ES cells. Several genes whose expression is specific to undifferentiated ES were repressed in ETV4/5 dKO ES cells. In contrast, expression of differentiation markers was enhanced in ETV4/5 dKO ES cells.

Project description:Sall4 is a transcription factor essential for early mammalian development. Though it is reported to play an important role in embryonic stem (ES) cell self-renewal, whether it is an essential pluripotency factor has been disputed. Though Sall4 is known to associate with the Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase (NuRD) complex, the nature of this interaction is unclear as NuRD and Sall4 serve opposing functions in ES cells. Here we use defined culture conditions and single-cell gene expression analyses to show that Sall4 prevents activation of the neural gene expression programme in ES cells but is dispensable for maintaining the pluripotency gene regulatory network. We further show using genome-wide analyses that while Sall4 interacts with NuRD, it neither recruits NuRD to chromatin nor influences transcription via NuRD. Rather we propose a model where, by titrating Sall4 protein, NuRD limits the differentiation-inhibiting activity of Sall4 in ES cells to enable lineage commitment.

Project description:Self-renewal circuitry in embryonic stem (ES) cells is increasingly defined. How the robust pluripotency programme is dissolved to enable fate transition is less appreciated. We developed a forward genetic approach using haploid ES cells. We created libraries of transposon integrations and screened for persistent self-renewal in differentiation permissive culture. This yielded multiple mutants in the FGF/Erk and GSK3/Tcf3 modules known to drive differentiation, and in epigenetic modifiers implicated in lineage commitment. We also identified and validated factors not previously considered. These include the conserved small zinc finger protein Zfp706. Loss of Zfp706 function severely delays the exit from self-renewal. To asses a potential function of Zfp706 in regulation of gene expression we compared transcription profiles between Zfp706 gene trap mutant ES cells and genetic revertants.

Project description:Epigenetic regulation of chromatin states is thought to control the self-renewal and differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. However, the roles of repressive histone modifications such as trimethylated histone lysine 20 (H4K20me3) in pluripotency and development are largely unknown. Here, we show that the histone lysine methyltransferase SMYD5 mediates H4K20me3 at heterochromatin regions. Depletion of SMYD5 leads to compromised self-renewal, including dysregulated expression of OCT4 targets, and perturbed differentiation. SMYD5 bound regions are enriched with repetitive DNA elements. Knockdown of SMYD5 results in a global decrease of H4K20me3 levels, a redistribution of heterochromatin constituents including H3K9me3/2, G9a, and HP1α, and de-repression of endogenous retroelements. A loss of SMYD5-dependent silencing of heterochromatin nearby genic regions leads to upregulated expression of lineage-specific genes, thus contributing to the decreased self-renewal and accelerated differentiation of SMYD5-depeleted ES cells. Altogether, these findings implicate a role for SMYD5 in regulating ES cell self-renewal and H4K20me3-marked heterochromatin.

Project description:In order to investigate the cooperative roles of Pontin and Oct4 for self-renewal and pluripotency in mouse ES cells, we performed mRNA-sequencing analysis from mRNAs isolated from Pontin- and Oct4-depleted ES cells. This analysis provides insight into molecular mechanisms for maintaining ES cell identity. mRNA expression profiles of Pontinf/f; CreER ES cells at 0, 3, or 4 days post-treatment with OHT (wild type and Pontin-depleted ES cells) and ZHBTc4 ES cells at 2 days post-treatment with tetracycline (Oct4-depleted ESE cells) were examined by Illumina Hiseq2000.

Project description:Embryonic stem (ES) cells can self-renew indefinitely without losing their differentiation ability to any cell types. Phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling plays a pivotal role in various stem cell systems, including the formation of embryonic germ (EG) cells from primordial germ cells and self-renewal of neural stem cells. Here, we show that myristoylated, active form of Akt (myr-Akt) maintained the undifferentiated phenotypes in mouse ES cells without the addition of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF). The effects of myr-Akt were reversible, because LIF dependence and pluripotent differentiation activity were restored by the deletion of myr-Akt. In addition, myr-Akt-Mer fusion protein, whose enzymatic activity is controlled by 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen, also maintained the pluripotency of not only mouse but also cynomolgus monkey ES cells. These results clearly demonstrate that Akt signaling sufficiently maintains pluripotency in mouse and primate ES cells, and support the notion that PI3K/Akt signaling axis regulates 'stemness' in a broad spectrum of stem cell systems.
