An enhancer cluster promotes NPCs formation from ESCs through maintaining HoxB activation by long-range chromatin interaction


ABSTRACT: Homeobox B cluster genes (HoxB) are important marker genes for neural progenitor cells (NPCs) formation from embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, mechanisms of HoxB activation in NPCs remain largely unknown. Here, we find an enhancer cluster (EnC) interacting with the HoxB locus by PLAC-seq analysis. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated EnC deletion significantly inhibited HoxB expression, indicating that the EnC is required for HoxB activation in NPCs. Transcriptome analysis revealed that differentiation-related master control genes and NPCs formation-related signaling pathways were significantly inhibited suggesting that the EnC is essential for NPCs formation. In summary, our results reveal a new mechanism about HoxB activation depending on EnC is crucial for NPCs formation.
