A reference map of cardiac transcription factor chromatin occupancy identifies dynamic and conserved transcriptional enhancers

ABSTRACT: Mapping the chromatin occupancy of transcription factors (TFs) is a key step in deciphering the transcriptional programs that orchestrate organ development and homeostasis. Here we used biotinylated knockin alleles of seven key TFs (GATA4, NKX2-5, MEF2A, MEF2C, SRF, TBX5, TEAD1) that regulate heart development and homeostasis to sensitively and reproducibly map their genome-wide occupancy in the fetal and adult heart. Our results show that these TFs have dynamic chromatin occupancy between developmental stages. We observed that multiple TFs often co-occupy the same chromatin region, exhibiting collaborative binding that overall was most consistent with indirect cooperativity. Regions with multiple TF binding were more likely to exhibit features of functional regulatory elements, including evolutionary conservation, chromatin accessibility, and activity in transcriptional enhancer assays. Although histone H3 acetylation on lysine 27 (H3K27ac) has been used to identify active enhancers, many regions occupied by multiple TFs lacked H3K27ac, and TF-bound regions with or without H3K27ac co-occupancy had similar region conservation and enhancer activity. Specific studies of TEAD1 demonstrated that it is a core component of the cardiac transcriptional network: physically interacted with NKX2-5 and MEF2C and co-occupied regulatory loci with other cardiac TFs to regulate cardiomyocyte-specific gene functions. Our study shows that co-occupancy by multiple TFs is a hallmark of a subset of functional transcriptional regulatory elements and provides a rich resource for deciphering the cardiac transcriptional regulatory network.

Cardiac Reprogramming Factors Synergistically Activate Genome-wide Cardiogenic Stage-Specific Enhancers (RNA-seq data set)

Project description:Fibroblasts can be directly reprogrammed toward a cardiac fate by introducing cardiogenic transcription factors (TFs), although the underlying mechanisms of the cardiac reprogramming process remain unclear. Three cardiac TFs, GATA4, MEF2C, and Tbx5 (referred to as GMT) can activate cardiac genes in fibroblasts and their cardiogenic activity is enhanced by the Hand2 TF and the Akt1 kinase. To understand the mechanistic basis of cardiac reprogramming, we performed a genome-wide analysis of cardiogenic TF binding sites and active enhancers, which were annotated by H3K27ac histone modification, during the reprogramming process. We found that cardiogenic TFs rapidly co-occupy core regulatory elements of cardiac genes and activate myriad cardiac enhancers that are enriched predominantly in Mef2 binding sites. Addition of Hand2 and Akt1 to the GMT reprogramming cocktail expands the spectrum of co-occupied active cardiac enhancers. As reprogramming proceeds over time, reprogramming TFs continue to activate additional cardiac enhancers, which are also enriched for Mef2 motifs, while fibroblast enhancers are silenced. This transition of the enhancer landscape strongly correlated with changes in the fibroblast and cardiac transcriptome. To test the relevance of cardiac reprogramming enhancers to the regulation of cardiogenesis in vivo, we assayed a collection of reprogramming enhancers in transgenic mouse embryos and found that they directed highly specific expression patterns in the developing heart. Our findings demonstrate that Hand2 and Akt1 enhance reprogramming by facilitating cardiac enhancer occupancy and identify Mef2 as a central effector of cardiac reprogramming, which coordinates the actions of accessory factors across a broad landscape of cardiac enhancers.

Integrated transcript and genome analyses reveal NKX2-1 and MEF2C as potential oncogenes in T-ALL

Project description:To identify novel oncogenic pathways in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), we combined expression profiling of 117 pediatric patient samples and detailed molecular cytogenetic analyses including the Chromosome Conformation Capture on Chip (4C) method. Two T-ALL subtypes were identified that lacked rearrangements of known oncogenes. One subtype associated with cortical arrest, expression of cell cycle genes and ectopic NKX2-1 or NKX2-2 expression for which rearrangements were identified. The second subtype associated with immature T-cell development and high expression of the MEF2C transcription factor as consequence of rearrangements of MEF2C, transcription factors that target MEF2C or MEF2C-associated cofactors. We propose NKX2-1, NKX2-2 and MEF2C as T-ALL oncogenes that are activated by various rearrangements. This study includes 117 pediatric T-ALL samples of which 92 samples are available at GSE10609. In addition, this study includes 7 normal bone marrow control samples

Allele-specific NKX2-5 binding underlies multiple genetic associations with human electrocardiographic traits

Project description:We conducted a genome-wide analysis to identify regulatory variants affecting the binding of NKX2-5, a core cardiac development transcription factor, and investigated their role in cardiac gene expression and EKG phenotypes. We generated iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) from a pedigree of seven whole-genome sequenced individuals, and profiled them with a variety of functional genomic assays including RNA-Seq, ATAC-Seq, and ChIP-Seq of both histone modification H3K27ac and NKX2-5. After establishing that iPSC-CMs recapitulated cardiomyocyte-specific expression and epigenetic signatures, and that genetic variants affected the variability of molecular phenotypes across the iPSC-CM lines, we identified heterozygous sites that showed allele-specific effects (ASE). We then investigated NKX2-5 ASE variants in detail by examining whether they altered cardiac TF motifs, and whether they were enriched for eQTLs and EKG GWAS-SNPs. Our data reveal that variation affecting the binding of NKX2-5 and other cardiac TFs likely serves as a molecular mechanism underlying control of numerous EKG loci across the genome, and that fine-mapping approaches, combined with molecular phenotype data from iPSC-CMs, can be used to prioritize causal variants in EKG GWAS loci.

The multi-lineage transcription factor ISL1 controls cardiomyocyte cell fate through interaction with NKX2.5

Project description:Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of infant mortality in the US and is commonly thought to arise from perturbations of transcription factors (TFs) during cardiac development. ISLET1 (ISL1) is one such TF, although it also directs differentiation of other cell types, including motor neuron progenitors (MNPs) and pancreatic islet cells. Although cellular specificity of ISL1 function is likely achieved through combinatorial interactions, its essential cardiac interacting partners are unknown. By assaying ISL1 genomic occupancy in human iPSC-derived cardiac progenitors (CPs) or MNPs and leveraging the deep learning approach BPNet, we identified cell-type-specific motifs of other TFs that predicted ISL1 occupancy in each lineage, with the NKX2.5 motif being most closely associated to ISL1 in CPs. We demonstrated ISL1 forms a protein complex with NKX2.5 in CPs, and the two regulated similar gene networks. NKX2.5 co-occupied more than half of ISL1-bound loci, and ISL1 was dependent on NKX2.5 for CP-specific localization. Furthermore, overexpression of NKX2.5 in MNPs led to ISL1 redistribution to CP-specific loci. These results reveal how ISL1 can guide differential lineage choices through a combinatorial code that dictates genomic occupancy and transcription.

TEA domain transcription factor 1(TEAD1) induces cardiac fibroblasts cells remodeling through BRD4/Wnt4 pathway [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) are the primary cells tasked with depositing and remodeling collagen and significantly associated with heart failure (HF). TEAD1 has been shown to be essential for heart development and homeostasis. However, endogenous fibroblast TEAD1 in cardiac remodeling remains incompletely understood. Transcriptomic analyses revealed consistently upregulated cardiac TEAD1 expression in mice 4 weeks after transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and Ang-II infusion. Further investigation revealed that CFs were the primary cell type expressing elevated TEAD1 levels in response to pressure overload. Conditional TEAD1 knockout was achieved by crossing TEAD1-floxed mice with CFs- and myofibroblasts-specific Cre mice. Echocardiographic and histological analyses demonstrated that CFs- and myofibroblasts-specific TEAD1 deficiency and treatment with TEAD1 inhibitor, VT103, ameliorated TAC-induced cardiac remodeling. Mechanistically, RNA-seq analysis identified Wnt4 as a novel TEAD1 target. TEAD1 has been shown to promote the fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition through the Wnt signalling pathway, and genetic Wnt4 knockdown inhibited the pro-transformation phenotype in CFs with TEAD1 overexpression. Furthermore, co-immunoprecipitation combined with mass spectrometry, chromatin immunoprecipitation, and luciferase assays demonstrated interaction between TEAD1 and BET protein BRD4, leading to the binding and activation of the Wnt4 promoter. In conclusion, TEAD1 is an essential regulator of the pro-fibrotic CFs phenotype associated with pathological cardiac remodeling via the BRD4/Wnt4 signalling pathway.

YAP1 exerts its transcriptional control via TEAD mediated activation of enhancers

Project description:YAP is the principle effector of the Hippo signaling pathway; a key regulator of tissue homeostasis whose dysregulation is linked to cancer development. YAP regulation of gene expression is thought to involve the TEAD transcription factor family. Here we show that YAP and TEAD1 binding always co-occurs and is mediated by single as well as double TEAD1 motifs with a particular 3bp spacer (CATTCCNNNCATTCC). This suggests that YAP activity appears exclusively mediated by TEAD1. Despite being characterized as a promoter-binding factor YAP/TEAD actually binds predominantly to enhancers. Moreover we show that YAP is necessary for activity of the linked gene and proper chromatin state of regulated enhancers. These results establish mode of binding and activation of YAP mediated nuclear response of the Hippo pathway by TEAD1 and provide a comprehensive list and a novel class of direct target genes that are regulated distally and could be exploited for cancer therapeutics. Sequencing of ChIP and input samples for YAP1 and TEAD1 transcription factors and H3K27ac histone modification in SF268 glioblastoma cells and for YAP1 transcription factor in NCI-H2052 mesothelioma cells.

Cross-lineage Potential of Ascl1 Uncovered by Comparing Diverse Reprogramming Regulatomes [RNA-seq III]

Project description:Direct reprogramming has revolutionized the fields of stem cell biology and regenerative medicine. Direct reprogramming makes it possible to interconvert somatic cell fates without intermediary pluripotency. Although studies have identified different transcription factor (TF) cocktails that can reprogram fibroblasts into different cell types, the common mechanisms governing how reprogramming cells undergo transcriptome and epigenome remodeling (i.e. regulatome remodeling) have not been investigated. Here, by characterizing early changes in the regulatome of three different types of direct reprogramming – induced neurons, induced hepatocytes, and induce cardiomyocytes – we identified two non-cocktail TFs, Tead4 and Atf7, that co-operate with reprogramming TFs to regulate target cell-type specific gene expression. Additionally, by identifying shared pro-cardiac features of iN and iCM reprogramming, we demonstrate Ascl1’s cross-lineage potential to induce highly efficient iCM reprogramming in a two-factor cocktail with Mef2c (A+M). Single-cell multi-omics showed that A+M reprogramming terminates in a more mature iCM phenotype than MGT. Finally, through ChIP-seq and RNA-seq, we find that Mef2c drives the shift in Ascl1 binding away from neuronal genes towards cardiac gene, guiding their co-operative epigenetic and transcription activities. These findings demonstrate the existence of common regulators of different direct reprogramming process and argue against the premise that TFs are lineage specific – the basic premise used to develop direct reprogramming approaches.
