UTX Regulates Human Neural Differentiation and Dendritic Morphology by Resolving Bivalent Promoters

ABSTRACT: To gain a deeper insight into roles of UTX in hESCs derived neurons, we performed ChIP-seq and RNA-seq to analyze the genome-wide changes of histone modifications and transcriptome changes after UTX deletion in hESCs-derived neurons.

UTX Regulates Human Neural Differentiation and Dendritic Morphology by Resolving Bivalent Promoters.

Project description:UTX, a H3K27me3 demethylase, plays an important role in mouse brain development. However, so little is known about the function of UTX in human neural differentiation and dendritic morphology. In this study, we generated UTX-null human embryonic stem cells using CRISPR/Cas9, and differentiated them into neural progenitor cells and neurons to investigate the effects of UTX loss of function on human neural development. The results showed that the number of differentiated neurons significantly reduced after loss of UTX, and that the dendritic morphology of UTX KO neurons tended to be simplified. The electrophysiological recordings showed that most of the UTX KO neurons were immature. Finally, RNA sequencing identified dozens of differentially expressed genes involved in neural differentiation and synaptic function in UTX KO neurons and our results demonstrated that UTX regulated these critical genes by resolving bivalent promoters. In summary, we establish a reference for the important role of UTX in human neural differentiation and dendritic morphology.

An essential role for UTX in resolution and activation of bivalent promoters

Project description:In the present study, we show that UTX plays an essential role in resolving and activating many retinoic acid (RA)-inducible bivalent genes during the RA-driven differentiation of mouse ESCs treated with a physiologically relevant RA concentration (0.2 Î¼M). We showed that UTX loss and UTX knockdown interfered with the RA-induced differentiation of mouse ESCs. Therefore, our findings indicate that the UTX-mediated resolution and activation of many RA-inducible bivalent genes, including numerous Hoxa-d cluster genes, are required for RA-driven differentiation of mouse ESCs. ChIP-Seq data for H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 were generated along with input data for mouse stem cells with wild type or UTX-depleted genotype and with or without RA treatment.

An essential role for UTX in resolution and activation of bivalent promoters.

Project description:Trimethylated histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) is linked to gene silencing, whereas H3K4me3 is associated with gene activation. These two marks frequently co-occupy gene promoters, forming bivalent domains. Bivalency signifies repressed but activatable states of gene expression and can be resolved to active, H3K4me3-prevalent states during multiple cellular processes, including differentiation, development and epithelial mesenchymal transition. However, the molecular mechanism underlying bivalency resolution remains largely unknown. Here, we show that the H3K27 demethylase UTX (also called KDM6A) is required for the resolution and activation of numerous retinoic acid (RA)-inducible bivalent genes during the RA-driven differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Notably, UTX loss in mouse ESCs inhibited the RA-driven bivalency resolution and activation of most developmentally critical homeobox (Hox) a-d genes. The UTX-mediated resolution and activation of many bivalent Hox genes during mouse ESC differentiation were recapitulated during RA-driven differentiation of human NT2/D1 embryonal carcinoma cells. In support of the importance of UTX in bivalency resolution, Utx-null mouse ESCs and UTX-depleted NT2/D1 cells displayed defects in RA-driven cellular differentiation. Our results define UTX as a bivalency-resolving histone modifier necessary for stem cell differentiation.

JMJD3 and UTX Determine Fidelity and Lineage Specification of Human Neural Progenitor Cells [UTX ChIP]

Project description:Neurogenesis entails a highly orchestrated process from pluripotent to neural cell fates including progenitors (NPCs) and various neural subtypes. However, the precise epigenetic mechanisms underlying the fate decision remain poorly understood. Here, we deleted KDM6s (JMJD3 or/and UTX), the demethylases for H3K27me3, in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and show that their deletion does not impede NPC generation from hESCs. However, KDM6-deficient NPCs exhibit poor proliferation and fail to become neurons and glia. Mechanistically, KDM6 deficiency leads to H3K27me3 accumulation and blockade of DNA accessibility at loci essential for neurogenesis, thus hinder the fate transition from NPCs to neural subtypes. Our findings uncover an essential role of KDM6s in neurogenesis and highlight the contribution of individual epigenetic regulators in specifying lineage fidelity and fate decision during human development.

Project description:The UTX/KDM6A gene encodes the UTX histone H3K27 demethylase, which plays an important role in mammalian development and is frequently mutated in cancers and particularly, in urothelial cancers. Using BioID technique, we explored the interactome of different UTX isoforms.
