Comprehensive Study of Nuclear Receptor DNA Binding Provides a Revised Framework for Understanding Receptor Specificity

ABSTRACT: The type II nuclear receptors (NRs) function as heterodimeric transcription factors with the retinoid X receptor (RXR) to regulate diverse biological processes in response to endogenous ligands and therapeutic drugs. DNA-binding specificity has been proposed as a primary mechanism for NR gene regulatory specificity. We use protein-binding microarrays (PBMs) to comprehensively analyze the DNA binding of 12 NR:RXRα heterodimers. We find more promiscuous NR-DNA binding than has been reported, challenging the view that NR binding specificity is defined by half-site spacing. We show that NRs bind DNA using two distinct modes, explaining widespread NR binding to half-sites in vivo. Finally, we show that the current models of NR specificity better reflect binding-site activity rather than binding-site affinity. Our rich dataset and revised NR binding models provide a framework for understanding NR regulatory specificity and will facilitate more accurate analyses of genomic datasets.

Characterization of stem cell-derived liver and intestinal organoids as a model system to study nuclear receptor biology.

Project description:Nuclear receptors (NRs) are ligand-activated transcription factors regulating a large variety of processes involved in reproduction, development, and metabolism. NRs are ideal drug targets. Immortalized cell lines recapitulate NR biology very poorly and primary cultures are laborious and require a constant need for donor material. There is a clear need for development of novel preclinical model systems that better resemble human physiology since technical uncertainty early in drug development is the cause of many preclinical drugs not reaching the clinic. Here, we studied whether organoids, mini-organs derived from the respective tissue’s stem cells, can serve as a novel (preclinical) model system to study NR biology and targeteability. We characterized mRNA expression profiles of the NR superfamily in mouse liver, ileum, and colon organoids. NR mRNA expression patterns were similar to the respective tissues, indicating their suitability for NR research. Metabolic NRs Fxrα, Lxrα, Lxrβ, Pparα, and Pparγ were responsive to ligands in an NR-dependent fashion, as demonstrated by regulation of expression and binding to endogenous target genes. Transcriptome analyses of wildtype colonic organoids stimulated with Rosiglitazone showed that lipid metabolism was the highest significant changed function, greatly mimicking the known function of PPARs and Rosiglitazone in vivo. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that organoids constitutes a versatile and promising in vitro system to study NR biology and targeteability.

UBR5 Forms Ligand-Dependent Complexes on Chromatin to Regulate Nuclear Hormone Receptor Binding [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Nuclear hormone receptors (NRs) are ligand-binding transcription factors that are important therapeutic targets in malignancy. Hormone binding triggers NR activation and their subsequent proteasomal degradation through unknown ligand-dependent ubiquitin ligase machinery. NR degradation is therapeutically relevant: the oncogenic PML-RARA fusion between PML and the retinoic acid receptor (RARA) drives acute promyelocytic leukemia and degradation of PML-RARA induced by all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) is required for anti-tumor activity. Our work establishes UBR5-driven NR degradation as an integral regulator of transcriptional signaling by nuclear hormones.

5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) increase CREB1 binding to the C/EBP half-site GCAA

Project description:In human and mouse stem cells and brain, 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) can occur outside of CG dinucleotides. Using protein binding microarrays (PBMs) containing 60-mer DNA probes, we evaluated the effect of 5mC and 5hmC on one DNA strand on the double-stranded DNA binding of the mouse B-ZIP transcription factors (TFs) CREB1, ATF1, and JUND. 5mC inhibited CREB1 binding to the canonical CRE half-site |GTCA, but increased binding to the C/EBP half-site |GCAA. 5hmC inhibited CREB1 binding to all 8-mers except TGAT|GCAA, where binding is enhanced. We observed similar DNA binding patterns with the closely related TF: ATF1. In contrast, both 5mC and 5hmC inhibited binding of JUND. These results identify new DNA sequences that are well-bound by CREB1 and ATF1 only when they contain 5mC or 5hmC. Analysis of two x-ray structures examines the consequences of 5mC and 5hmC on DNA binding by CREB and FOS|JUN.

UBR5 Forms Ligand-Dependent Complexes on Chromatin to Regulate Nuclear Hormone Receptor Binding [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Nuclear hormone receptors (NRs) are ligand-binding transcription factors that are important therapeutic targets in malignancy. Hormone binding triggers NR activation and their subsequent proteasomal degradation through unknown ligand-dependent ubiquitin ligase machinery. NR degradation is therapeutically relevant: the oncogenic PML-RARA fusion between PML and the retinoic acid receptor (RARA) drives acute promyelocytic leukemia and degradation of PML-RARA induced by all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) is required for anti-tumor activity. We identify a Leu-X-X-Leu-Leu (LxxLL) binding motif that associates with a conserved degron in RARA. A high-resolution crystal structure of the RARA ligand binding domain in complex with this LxxLL motif shows how UBR5 binding is mutually exclusive with nuclear co-activator engagement. Our work establishes UBR5-driven NR degradation as an integral regulator of transcriptional signaling by nuclear hormones.

Evaluation of DNA-binding preferences of C2H2 zinc finger domains by PBM

Project description:The largest and most diverse class of eukaryotic transcription factors contain Cys2-His2 zinc fingers (C2H2-ZFs), each of which typically binds a DNA nucleotide triplet within a larger binding site. Frequent recombination and diversification of their DNA-contacting residues suggests that these zinc fingers play a prevalent role in adaptive evolution. Very little is known about the function and evolution of the vast majority of C2H2-ZFs, including whether they even bind DNA. Using the bacterial 1-hybrid (B1H) system, we determined DNA-binding motifs for thousands of individual natural C2H2-ZFs, and correlated them with C2H2-ZF specificity residues. The data reported here includes results of protein-binding microarray (PBM) assays for 146 of these natural C2H2-ZFs, performed in order to validate B1H assays and to explore the DNA-binding specificity of C2H2-ZFs. Protein binding microarray (PBM) experiments were performed for a set of 185 variants of mouse Egr1 in which the third zinc finger was replaced by different C2H2-ZFs from different organisms. Briefly, the PBMs involved binding GST-tagged DNA-binding proteins to two double-stranded 44K Agilent microarrays, each containing a different DeBruijn sequence design, in order to determine their sequence preferences. Details of the PBM protocol are described in Berger et al., Nature Biotechnology 2006. Among the 185 variants examined, 146 variants yielded motifs in PBMs, which are included here.

RNAi profiling by array of human Ewings carcinoma cells to down regulate EWS-FLI1

Project description:We report here the DNA-binding profiles for all human and mouse ETS factors, which we generated using two different methods: a high-throughput microwell-based transcription factor DNA-binding specificity assay, and protein binding microarrays (PBMs). Both approaches reveal that the ETS binding profiles cluster into four distinct classes, and that all ETS factors linked to cancer, ERG, ETV1, ETV4 and FLI1, fall into just one of these classes. We identify amino acid residues that are critical for the differences in specificity between all the classes, and confirm the specificities in vivo using chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) for a member of each class. To determine whether the ChIP-seq peaks were near genes regulated by the respective ETS-factors, we used RNAi to downregulate EWS-FLI1 in SK-N-MC Ewing's sarcoma cells. The results indicate that even relatively small differences in in vitro binding specificity of a TF contribute to site selectivity in vivo.

Nuclear receptor chemical reporter enables domain-specific analysis of ligands in mammalian cells

Project description:The characterization of specific metabolite–protein interactions is important in chemical biology and drug discovery. For example, nuclear receptors (NRs) are a family of ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate diverse physiological processes in animals and are key targets for therapeutic development. However, the identification and characterization of physiological ligands for many NRs remains challenging due to limitations in domain-specific analysis of ligand binding in cells. To address these limitations, we developed a domain-specific covalent chemical reporter for peroxisome proliferator–activated receptors (PPARs) and demonstrated its utility to screen and characterize the potency of candidate NR ligands in live cells. These studies demonstrate that targeted and domain-specific chemical reporters provide excellent tools to evaluate endogenous and exogenous (diet, microbiota, therapeutics) ligands of PPARs in mammalian cells as well as additional protein targets for further investigation.

UBR5 Forms Ligand-Dependent Complexes on Chromatin to Regulate Nuclear Hormone Receptor Stability

Project description:Nuclear hormone receptors (NRs) are ligand-binding transcription factors that are widely targeted therapeutically. Hormone binding triggers NR activation and their subsequent proteasomal degradation through unknown ligand-dependent ubiquitin ligase machinery. NR degradation is therapeutically relevant. Efficacy of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia requires degradation of the oncogenic fusion between the Promyelocytic Leukemia Protein (PML) with the Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARA). Here we use CRISPR-based screens to identify the HECT E3 ubiquitin ligase UBR5 as a ligase for PML-RARA and RARA and observe an agonist-dependent association between RARA and UBR5, which occurs directly on chromatin to regulate transcription. We present the cryo-EM structure of full-length human UBR5 and identify a Leu-X-X-Leu-Leu (LxxLL) binding motif that associates with a conserved degron in RARA. A high-resolution crystal structure of the RARA ligand binding domain in complex with this LxxLL motif shows how UBR5 binding is mutually exclusive with nuclear co-activator engagement. We demonstrate that UBR5 utilizes this conserved degron to additionally regulate hormone dependent protein stability for the glucocorticoid, progesterone, and vitamin D receptors. Our work establishes UBR5-driven NR degradation as an integral regulator of transcriptional signaling by nuclear hormones.
