Project description:Opaque2 (O2) is a transcription factor that plays important roles during maize endosperm development. Mutation of the O2 gene improves the nutritional value of maize seeds, but also confers pleiotropic effects that result in reduced agronomic quality. To reveal the transcriptional regulatory framework of O2, we determined O2 DNA binding targets using chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-Seq). ChIP-Seq analysis detected 1,686 O2 DNA binding sites distributed over 1,143 genes. We identified 4 new O2 binding motifs; among them, TGACGTGG appears to be the most conserved and strongest. We confirmed that, except for the 16 kD and 18 kD zeins, O2 directly regulates expression of all other zeins. O2 directly regulates two transcription factors, genes linked to carbon and amino acid metabolism and abiotic stress resistance. Examination of 15 days after pollination(DAP) wild type maize endosperm with O2 specific antibody and IgG serves as control.

Project description:Human fetal γ-globin gene is developmentally silenced around the birth, and reactivation of γ-globin gene in adulthood sheds new light on ameliorating symptoms of hemoglobin disorders, such as sickle cell disease (SCD) and β-thalassemias. However, the precise regulation process of γ-globin remains incompletely understood. Here, we found that a new protein directly interacted with SOX6 and exerted a significant repression effect on the expression of γ-globin gene in erythroid cells. Further studies have demonstrated that it bound directly to γ-globin gene promoter via octamer binding motif, which in turn suppressed the transcriptional activity of γ-globin gene promoter. Thus, these data indicate that this new protein acts as a novel transcriptional repressor in the regulation of γ-globin gene expression through direct promoter binding, implying a potential alternative therapeutic target for the treatment of SCD and β-thalassemias.

Project description:In the current report, we report that ThbZIP1 is a direct target gene of the ThABF1 transcription factor. There are three ABRE motifs in the promoter of ThbZIP1, Yeast one-hybrid (Y1H) assays showed that a ABF protein, ThABF1, specifically binds to the ABRE motifs. The interaction between ThABF1 and the promoter of ThbZIP1 was further confirmed by transient expression assays in tobacco leaves. Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) results suggested that binding of ThABF1 to ABRE motifs in the promoter of ThbZIP1 occurs in vivo in Tamarix hispida to regulate the expression of ThbZIP1. Moreover, ThABF1 and ThbZIP1 share similar expression patterns in response to salt, drought, ABA, methyl viologen (MV) and cold stress. Microarray analyses results showed there were 1,662 and 1,609 genes that were significantly upregulated or downregulated, respectively, under ABA stress conditions. ThbZIP1 regulated the genes via binding to the C-, G- or A-box motifs in their promoter sequences. Based on these data, the results suggested a regulatory network model mediated by ThbZIP1, under abiotic stress conditions, ThABF1 regulates the expression of ThbZIP1, and the activated ThbZIP1 binds to bZIP recognition sequences or other motifs to regulate the expression of genes containing these motifs in their promoters. Differentially expression genes of ThbZIP1-overexpression plants and wild type of Columbia Arabidopsis thaliana were measured under ABA stressed and normal condition for 3 hours, respectively. Two independent experiments were performed at each treatment using different plants for each experiment.

Project description:Transcription factors (TFs) play a central role in regulating gene expression by interacting with cis regulatory DNA elements associated with their target genes. Recent surveys have examined the DNA binding specificities of most Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcription factors but a comprehensive evaluation of their data has been lacking. Results: We analyzed in vitro and in vivo TF-DNA binding data reported in previous large-scale studies to generate a comprehensive, curated resource of DNA binding specificity data for all characterized S. cerevisiae transcription factors. Our collection comprises DNA binding site motifs and comprehensive in vitro DNA binding specificity data for all possible 8 bp sequences. Included in this database is DNA binding specificity data for 27 TFs independently generated by PBM analysis in this current study. Investigation of the DNA binding specificities within the basic leucine zipper (bZIP) and VHR transcription factor families revealed unexpected plasticity in TF-DNA recognition: intriguingly, the VHR transcription factors, newly characterized by protein binding microarrays in this study, recognize bZIP like DNA motifs, while the bZIP transcription factor Hac1 recognizes a motif highly similar to the canonical E-box motif of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors. We identified several transcription factors with distinct primary and secondary motifs, which might be associated with different regulatory functions. Finally, integrated analysis of in vivo transcription factor binding data with protein binding microarray data lends further support for indirect DNA binding in vivo by sequence-specific transcription factors.

Project description:Aims: The Ca+/NFAT (Nuclear factor of activated T cells) signaling pathway activation is implicated in the pathogenesis of Kawasaki disease (KD); however, we lack detailed information regarding the regulatory network involved in the human coronary endothelial cell dysfunction and cardiovascular lesion development. Herein, we aimed to use mouse and endothelial cell models of KD vasculitis in vivo and in vitro to characterize the regulatory network of NFAT pathway in KD. Methods and Results: Among the NFAT gene family, NFAT2 showed the strongest transcriptional activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with KD. Then, NFAT2 overexpression and knockdown experiments in Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) indicated that NFAT2 overexpression disrupted endothelial cell homeostasis by regulation of adherens junctions, whereas its knockdown protected HCAECs such dysfunction. Combined analysis using RNA sequencing and transcription factor (TF) binding site analysis in the NFAT2 promoter region predicted regulation by Forkhead box O4 (FOXO4). Western blotting, chromatin immunoprecipitation, and luciferase assays validated that FOXO4 binds to the promoter and transcriptionally represses NFAT2. Moreover, Foxo4 knockout increased the extent of inflamed vascular tissues in a mouse model of KD vasculitis. Functional experiments showed that inhibition NFAT2 relieved Foxo4 knockout exaggerated vasculitis in vivo.

Project description:Mammalian embryo development is dependent on the ability of the uterus to allow and support the implantation of the embryo. Here we demonstrate that ablation of Sox17 specifically in the uterine epithelium results in altered uterine epithelial cell proliferation, uterine gland development and embryo implantation. Uteri lacking Sox17 showed reduction in LIF and IHH signaling which are critical for embryo implantation. ChIP-seq analysis demonstrated that SOX17 binds to a region 19kb 5’ to the Ihh locus. In vivo deletion of this enhancer by the CRISPR-Cas technology reduced Ihh expression in uteri and altered proper endometrial epithelial-stromal interactions required for pregnancy leading to compromised fertility. The SOX17 binding peak at 19kb from the Ihh promoter also bound GATA2, FOXA2 and PGR. Bioinformatic analysis of regions overlapping SOX17, GATA2, FOXA2 and PGR bindings shows 737 genes with these common binding sites. This cluster of transcription factors identified in this enhancer region may represent a combination of regulatory elements essential for uterine epithelial gene expression and differentiation.
