Combinatorial action of temporally-segregated transcription factors

ABSTRACT: Combinatorial action of transcription factors(TFs) with partially-overlapping expression is a widespreadstrategyto generate novel gene-expression patternsand thuscellular diversity. Known mechanisms underlying combinatorialactivityrequireco-expression of TFswithin the same cell. Here, we describe themechanismby which twoTFsthat are never co-expressed, generate a new, intersectional expression pattern in C. elegans embryos:lineage-specific priming of a gene by a transiently-expressedTFgeneratesa uniqueintersectionwith a second TF acting on the same gene four cell divisions later;the second TF is expressed in multiple cells butonly activatestranscription in those where priming occurred.Early induction of active transcription is necessary and sufficient to establish a competent state that is maintained by broadly-expressed regulators in absence of theinitial trigger. We further uncover new cells diversified through this mechanism. Our findings define anovel mechanism forcombinatorial TF activity with important implications for generation of cell-type diversity in vivo and in vitro.

Combinatorial Action of Temporally Segregated Transcription Factors.

Project description:Combinatorial action of transcription factors (TFs) with partially overlapping expression is a widespread strategy to generate novel gene-expression patterns and, thus, cellular diversity. Known mechanisms underlying combinatorial activity require co-expression of TFs within the same cell. Here, we describe the mechanism by which two TFs that are never co-expressed generate a new, intersectional expression pattern in C. elegans embryos: lineage-specific priming of a gene by a transiently expressed TF generates a unique intersection with a second TF acting on the same gene four cell divisions later; the second TF is expressed in multiple cells but only activates transcription in those where priming occurred. Early induction of active transcription is necessary and sufficient to establish a competent state, maintained by broadly expressed regulators in the absence of the initial trigger. We uncover additional cells diversified through this mechanism. Our findings define a mechanism for combinatorial TF activity with important implications for generation of cell-type diversity.

Transcriptomic response of Huanglongbing infected Citrus sinensis following field application of a microbial fermentation product

Project description:Huanglongbing (HLB) is considered the most destructive disease in Citrus production and threatens the future of the industry. Microbial derived defence elicitors have gained recognition for their role in plant defence priming. A transcriptomic assessment using GeneChip microarray of the hour 6 samples revealed differential expression of 565 genes when MFA was applied to healthy trees and 909 genes when applied infected citrus trees when compared to their respective controls. There were 403 uniquely differentially expressed genes in response to MFA following an intersectional analysis of both healthy and infected citrus trees. The transcriptomic analysis revealed that several genes associated with plant development, growth and defence were upregulated in response to MFA, including, multiple PR genes, lignin formation genes, ROS related genes, hormone synthases and hormone regulators.

A hierarchical transcription factor cascade regulates enteroendocrine cell diversity and plasticity in Drosophila [DamID-Seq]

Project description:Enteroendocrine cells (EEs) represent a heterogeneous cell population in intestine and exert endocrine functions by secreting a diverse array of neuropeptides. Although many transcription factors (TFs) required for specification of EEs have been identified in both mammals and Drosophila, it is not understood how these TFs work together to generate this considerable subtype diversity. Here we show that EE diversity in adult Drosophila is generated via an “additive hierarchical TF cascade”. Specifically, a combination of a master TF, a secondary-level TF and a tertiary-level TF constitute a “TF code” for generating EE diversity. We also discover a high degree of post-specification plasticity of EEs, as changes in the code—including as few as one distinct TF—allow efficient switching of subtype identities. Our study thus reveals a hierarchically-organized TF code that underlies EE diversity and plasticity in Drosophila, which can guide investigations of EEs in mammals and inform their application in medicine.

Single cell RNA-seq of mouse dorsal raphe Pet1 neurons

Project description:Here we use high-throughput and DR subdomain-targeted single-cell transcriptomics and intersectional genetic tools to map molecular and anatomical diversity of DR-Pet1 neurons. We describe up to fourteen neuron subtypes, many showing biased cell body distributions across the DR.

The impact of cold priming on the light and cold regulation of gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:We analysed the effect of cold priming on cold and high light regulation of gene expression. 5 days after the first cold treatment the primary stress response was widely reset. Then, a second (triggering) cold stimulus (24 h 4 °C) and a triggering high-light stimulus (2 h 800 µmol quanta m-2 s-1), which regulate many stress responsive genes in the same direction in naïve plants, caused widely specific and even inverse regulation of priming-responsive genes.

A negative feedback loop of transcription factors specifies alternative dendritic cell chromatin states (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:During hematopoiesis, cells originating from the same stem cell reservoir differentiate into distinct cell types. The mechanisms enabling common progenitors to differentiate into distinct cell fates are not fully understood. Here, we identify chromatin-regulating and cell-fate-determining transcription factors (TF) governing dendritic cell (DC) development by annotating the enhancer and promoter landscapes of the DC lineage. Combining these analyses with detailed over-expression, knockdown and ChIP-Seq studies, we show that Irf8 functions as a plasmacytoid DC epigenetic and fate-determining TF, regulating massive, cell-specific chromatin changes in thousands of pDC enhancers. Importantly, Irf8 forms a negative feedback loop with Cebpb, a monocyte-derived DC epigenetic fate-determining TF. We show that using this circuit logic, differential activity of TF can stably define epigenetic and transcriptional states, regardless of the microenvironment. More broadly, our study proposes a general paradigm that allows closely related cells with a similar set of signal-dependent factors to generate differential and persistent enhancer landscapes. Here analyzed 2 experiments, each one contains samples of moDC and pDC ex vivo cultured cells. The first experiment contains 32 samples of moDC and pDC following stimulation with various TLR stimulators. The second experiment contains 8 samples of moDC and pDC following perturbations; Cebpb and Irf8 knock down or over expression.

Sequence logic at enhancers governs a dual mechanism of endodermal organ fate induction by FOXA pioneer factors

Project description:FOXA pioneer transcription factors (TFs) associate with primed enhancers in endodermal organ precursors. Using a human stem cell model of pancreas differentiation, we here discover that only a subset of pancreatic enhancers is FOXA-primed, whereas the majority is unprimed and engages FOXA upon lineage induction. Primed enhancers are enriched for signal-dependent TF motifs and harbor abundant and strong FOXA motifs. Unprimed enhancers harbor fewer, more degenerate FOXA motifs, and FOXA recruitment to unprimed but not primed enhancers requires pancreatic TFs. Strengthening FOXA motifs at an unprimed enhancer near NKX6.1 renders FOXA recruitment pancreatic TF-independent, induces priming, and broadens the NKX6.1 expression domain. We make analogous observations about FOXA binding during hepatic and lung development. Our findings suggest a dual role for FOXA in endodermal organ development: First, FOXA facilitate signal-dependent lineage initiation via enhancer priming, and second, FOXA enforce organ cell type-specific gene expression via indirect recruitment by lineage-specific TFs.
