The control of transcriptional memory by stable mitotic bookmarking

ABSTRACT: To maintain cellular identities during development, gene expression profiles must be faithfully propagated through cell generations. The reestablishment of gene expression patterns upon mitotic exit is thought to be mediated, in part, by mitotic bookmarking by transcription factors (TF). However, the mechanisms and functions of TF mitotic bookmarking during early embryogenesis remain poorly understood. In this study, taking advantage of the naturally synchronized mitoses of Drosophila early embryos, we provide evidence that the pioneer-like transcription factor GAF acts as stable mitotic bookmarker during zygotic genome activation. We report that GAF remains associated to a large fraction of its interphase targets (37%). Mitotically-bound loci include cis-regulatory sequences of key developmental genes, with both active and repressive chromatin signatures. GAF mitotic targets are globally accessible during mitosis and a subset is also mitotically bookmarked via histone acetylation (H4K8ac). By monitoring the kinetics of transcriptional activation in living embryos, we provide evidence that GAF binding establishes competence for rapid activation upon mitotic exit.

Mitotic bookmarking redundancy by nuclear receptors mediates robust post-mitotic reactivation of the pluripotency network.

Project description:Mitotic bookmarking transcription factors (TFs) are thought to mediate rapid and accurate post-mitotic gene reactivation. However, the loss of individual bookmarking TFs often leads to the deregulation of only a small proportion of their mitotic targets, raising doubts on the significance and importance of their bookmarking function. Here, we used targeted proteomics of the mitotic bookmarking TF ESRRB, an orphan nuclear receptor, to discover an unexpected redundancy among members of the protein superfamily of nuclear receptors. Focusing on the nuclear receptor NR5A2, which together with ESRRB is essential in maintaining pluripotency in mouse embryonic stem cells, we demonstrate conjoint bookmarking activity of both factors on promoters and enhancers of a large fraction of active genes, particularly the most rapidly and strongly reactivated ones. Upon fast and simultaneous degradation of both factors during mitotic exit, hundreds of mitotic targets of ESRRB/NR5A2, including key players of the pluripotency network, display attenuated transcriptional reactivation. We propose that redundancy in mitotic bookmarking TFs, especially nuclear receptors, confers robustness to the reestablishment of gene regulatory networks after mitosis.

Maintenance of mammary epithelial phenotype by AML1/RUNX1 through mitotic gene bookmarking

Project description:Genetic and epigenetic changes in mammary epithelial cells facilitate epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) which leads to invasion and metastasis. RUNX1 is a phenotypic transcription factor pivotal for maintenance of mammary epithelial phenotype, whose loss leads to EMT. However, the mechanisms by which RUNX1 maintains mammary epithelial phenotype are not known. Here, we report RUNX1-mediated mitotic gene bookmarking as a key epigenetic mechanism through which RUNX1 stabilizes mammary epithelial phenotype by conveying regulatory information for cell proliferation, growth, and identity through successive cell divisions. Immunofluorescence microscopy and chromatin immunoprecipitation with high throughput sequencing of asynchronous, mitotic, and G1 MCF10A breast epithelial cells revealed RUNX1 association with target genes through interphase and mitosis. RUNX1 mitotically bookmarked both RNA Pol and II transcribed genes involved in proliferation, growth, and mammary epithelial phenotype maintenance. Inhibition of RUNX1 DNA binding by a specific small molecule inhibitor led to phenotypic changes, apoptosis, and differential expression of ribosomal RNA as well as protein coding genes (e.g. HES1 and H2AFX) and long non-coding RNA (e.g. NEAT1 and MALAT1) genes involved in cellular phenotype. Together these findings reveal a novel epigenetic regulatory role of RUNX1 in normal-like breast epithelial cells and demonstrate mitotic bookmarking target genes by RUNX1 is necessary to maintain breast epithelial phenotype. Disruption of RUNX1 bookmarking by a pharmacological inhibitor results in initiation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition, an essential first step in the onset of breast cancer.

Genome-wide binding profiles of HP1a and Prospero in Drosophila central brain neural precursors and neurons

Project description:Compacted heterochromatin blocks are prevalent in differentiated cells and present a barrier to cellular reprogramming. It remains obscure how heterochromatin remodeling is orchestrated during cell differentiation. Here we find that the evolutionarily conserved homeodomain transcription factor Prospero (Pros)/Prox1 ensures neuronal differentiation by driving heterochromatin domain condensation and expansion. Intriguingly, in mitotically dividing Drosophila neural precursors, Pros is retained at H3K9me3+ pericentromeric heterochromatin regions of chromosomes via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). During mitotic exit of neural precursors, mitotically retained Pros recruits and concentrates heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) into phase-separated condensates and drives heterochromatin compaction. This establishes a transcriptionally repressive chromatin environment that guarantees cell-cycle exit and terminal neuronal differentiation. Importantly, mammalian Prox1 employs a similar “mitotic-implantation-ensured heterochromatin condensation” strategy to reinforce neuronal differentiation. Together, our results unveiled a new paradigm whereby mitotic implantation of a transcription factor via LLPS remodels H3K9me3+ heterochromatin and drives timely and irreversible terminal differentiation.

MLL and Pol2 Chip-chip in interphase and mitotic arrested cells

Project description:Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) and its metazoan Trithorax orthologs have been linked with the epigenetic maintenance of transcriptional activity. To identify mechanisms by which MLL perpetuates active transcription in dividing cells, we investigated its role during M-phase of the cell cycle. Unlike other chromatin modifying enzymes examined, we found that MLL associates with gene promoters packaged within condensed mitotic chromosomes. Genome-wide location analysis identified a globally rearranged pattern of MLL occupancy during mitosis in a manner favoring genes that were highly transcribed during interphase. Knockdown experiments revealed that MLL retention at gene promoters during mitosis accelerates transcription reactivation following mitotic exit. MLL tethers Menin, RbBP5, and ASH2L to its occupied sites during mitosis, but is dispensable for preserving histone H3K4 methylation. These findings implicate mitotic bookmarking as a component of Trithorax-based gene regulation which may facilitate inheritance of active gene expression states during cell division. anti-MLL ChIP (antibody 456) and anti-pol2 chip (sc-899) in chromatin prepared from interphase and mitotic HeLa cells

GATA2 mitotic bookmarking is required for definitive haematopoiesis [ChIP-seq]

Project description:In mitosis, most transcription factors detach from chromatin, but some are retained and bookmark genomic sites. Mitotic bookmarking has been implicated in lineage inheritance, pluripotency and reprogramming. However, the biological significance of this mechanism in vivo remains unclear. Here, we address mitotic retention of the hemogenic factors GATA2, GFI1B and FOS during haematopoietic specification. We show that GATA2 remains bound to chromatin throughout mitosis, in contrast to GFI1B and FOS, via C-terminal zinc finger-mediated DNA binding. GATA2 bookmarks a subset of its interphase targets that are co-enriched for RUNX1 and other regulators of definitive haematopoiesis. Remarkably, homozygous mice harbouring the cyclin B1 mitosis degradation domain upstream Gata2 partially phenocopy knockout mice. Degradation of GATA2 at mitotic exit abolishes definitive haematopoiesis at aorta-gonad-mesonephros, placenta and foetal liver, but does not impair yolk sac haematopoiesis. Our findings implicate GATA2-mediated mitotic bookmarking as critical for definitive haematopoiesis and highlight a dependency on bookmarkers for lineage commitment.

Bookmarking by “non-pioneer” transcription factors during liver development establishes competence for future gene activation

Project description:Transcription factor binding to enhancer and promoter regions is critical for gene activation. To understand how cell-specific gene expression patterns are generated, we studied the developmental timing of association of two prominent hepatic transcription factors with gene regulatory regions. We found that most individual binding events displayed extraordinarily high temporal variations during liver development. Early and persistent binding is necessary but not sufficient for gene activation. Stable gene expression patterns are mainly generated by the combinatorial activity of multiple transcription factors, which mark regulatory regions long before activation and promote progressive broadening of active chromatin domains. Both, temporally stable and dynamic binding events contribute to the developmental maturation of active promoter configurations. The results reveal a developmental “bookmarking” function of transcription factors, and illuminate remarkable parallels between the principles employed for gene activation during development, evolution and upon mitotic exit.

Mitotic bookmarking by H3K27 acetylation is critical for rapid transcriptional, but not architectural, resetting of stem cell-related genes and enhancers upon G1 entry [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The identity of dividing cells is challenged during mitosis, as transcription is halted and chromatin architecture drastically altered. How cell type-specific gene expression and genomic organization are faithfully reset upon G1 entry in daughter cells remains elusive. To address this issue, we characterized at a genome-wide scale the dynamic transcriptional and architectural resetting of mouse pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) upon mitotic exit. This revealed distinct patterns of transcriptional reactivation with rapid induction of stem cell genes and their enhancers, a more gradual recovery of metabolic and cell cycle genes, and a weak and transient activation of lineage-specific genes only during G1. Topological reorganization at different hierarchical levels also occurred in an asynchronous manner and showed an overall weak coordination with transcriptional reactivation. Chromatin interactions around active promoters and enhancers, and particularly super enhancers, reformed at a faster rate than CTCF/Cohesin-bound structural loops. Interestingly, although regions with mitotic retention of the active histone mark H3K27ac associated both with faster transcriptional and architectural resetting, depletion of this mark specifically during mitosis perturbed transcriptional reactivation of H3K27ac-bookmarked genes without affecting chromatin topology. Our study provides an integrative map of the topological and transcriptional changes that lead to the resetting of pluripotent stem cell identity during mitotic exit, and reveals distinct patterns and features that balance the dual requirements for self-renewal and differentiation.
