(ATAC-seq_and_ChIP-seq) Spic regulates one-carbon metabolism and histone methylation in ground-state pluripotency

ABSTRACT: Understanding mechanisms of epigenetic regulation in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) is of fundamental importance for stem cell and developmental biology. Here we identify Spic, a member of the ETS family of transcription factors, as a specific marker of ground state pluripotency. We show that Spic is rapidly induced in ESCs cultured with GSK3-, MEK-inhibitors and LIF (2iL), and in response to MEK/ERK inhibition. ChIP-seq analysis demonstrated that Spic binds to enhancer elements that are associated with pluripotency genes. Interaction proteomics and genomic profiling confirmed that SPIC interacts with NANOG and stabilizes its binding to chromatin in 2iL-ESCs. Additional gain of function and loss of function experiments revealed that Spic controls genes involved in one carbon (1C) metabolism, Bhmt, Bhmt2, and Dmgdh, and the flux of SAM-to-SAH in 2iL-ESCs. By maintaining low levels of SAM, Spic controls the level of H3K4me3 and H3R17me2 histone methylation in ground state ESCs. Our data highlight the role of uncharacterized axillary transcription factors that link cellular metabolism to epigenetic regulation in ground state pluripotency.

The translational landscape of naïve and primed state pluripotency

Project description:Translational control plays a central role in regulation of gene expression and can lead to significant divergence between mRNA- and protein-abundance. The translational landscape of early mammalian development and its impact on cellular proteome, however, remains largely un-explored. Here we used genome-wide approaches combined with time-course analysis to measure the mRNA-abundance, mRNA-translation rate and protein expression during the transition of naïve into primed embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We found that the ground state ESCs cultured with GSK3- and MEK-inhibitors and LIF (2iL) display higher ribosome density on a selective set of mRNAs. These mRNAs show reduced translation during the exit from ground state pluripotency and transition to serum/LIF (SL) culture or upon commitment to primed epiblast-like stem cells (EpiLSCs). Strikingly, integrative analysis with cellular proteome indicate a strong translational buffering of this set of mRNAs in 2iL-ESCs leading to stable protein expression levels. Our data reveal that the global alteration of cellular proteome is largely accompanied by transcriptional rewiring. Furthermore, we identified a set of genes (including UHRF1 and KRAS) that undergo selective post-translational regulation during the transition of naïve into primed pluripotency and linked the observed changes to upstream GSK- and MEK/MAPK-signaling pathways using single inhibitor treated ESCs. Thus, we provide a comprehensive and detailed overview of the global changes in gene expression during the transition of naïve to primed pluripotency and dissect the relative contributions of RNA-transcription, translation and regulation of protein stability in controlling protein abundance.

RNA: The translational landscape of ground state pluripotency

Project description:Translational control plays a central role in regulation of gene expression and can lead to significant divergence between mRNA- and protein-abundance. Here we used genome-wide approaches combined with time-course analysis to measure the mRNA-abundance, mRNA-translation rate and protein expression during the transition of naïve-to-primed mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We find that the ground state ESCs cultured with GSK3-, MEK-inhibitors and LIF (2iL) display higher ribosome density on a selective set of mRNAs. This set of mRNAs undergo strong translational buffering to maintain stable protein expression levels in 2iL-ESCs. Importantly, we show that the global alteration of cellular proteome during the transition of naïve to primed pluripotency is largely accompanied by transcriptional rewiring. Thus, we provide a comprehensive and detailed overview of the global changes in gene expression in different states of ESCs and dissect the relative contributions of RNA-transcription, translation and regulation of protein stability in controlling protein abundance.

β-catenin safeguards the ground state of pluripotency by strengthening the robustness of the transcriptional apparatus [RNA-seq]

Project description:Mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) cultured with inhibitors of MEK and GSK3 (2iL) more closely resemble the pre-implantation embryo inner cell mass than cultures in serum/LIF (SL). Unveiling the differences between both systems is important for understanding development and could also assist in isolating an ESC equivalent for other mammalian species. In SL, pluripotency and cell cycle gene transcription is a multistep process requiring release of promoter-proximal paused RNA polymerase II (Pol2) by the histone acetylation reader BRD4 and the Pol2 kinase CDK9. Here, we show that recruitment of co-regulators including Mediator and Cohesin by β-catenin changes the mode of transcriptional regulation at BRD4/CDK9-bound loci in 2iL. This switch renders pluripotency genes more reliant on transcriptional initiation and less on Pol2 pause release for effective gene body elongation. Conversely, cell cycle genes are not bound by β-catenin and are still dependent on Pol2 pause release. Thus, pluripotency is more resistant to BRD4/CDK9 suppression in 2iL while self-renewal remains highly sensitive. Our findings help to explain how pluripotency is shielded in the ground state and provide insight into transcriptional adaptation upon network perturbation in other contexts.

ChIP-seq of Klf2 in mouse embryonic stem cells (Serum/LIF and 2i)

Project description:The self-renewing pluripotent state was first captured in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) over two decades ago. The standard condition requires the presence of serum and LIF, which provide growth promoting signals for cell expansion. However, there are pro-differentiation signals which destabilize the undifferentiated state of mESCs. The dual inhibition (2i) of the pro-differentiation Mek/Erk and Gsk3/Tcf3 pathways in mESCs is sufficient to establish an enhanced pluripotent “ground state” which bears features resembling the pre-implantation mouse epiblast. Gsk3 inhibition alleviates the repression of Esrrb, a transcription factor that can substitute for Nanog function in mESCs. The molecular mechanism that is mediated by Mek inhibition is however not clear. In this study, we investigate the pathway through which Mek inhibition operates to maintain ground state pluripotency. We have found that in mESCs, Kruppel-like factor 2 (Klf2) is a protein target of the Mek/Erk pathway; and that Klf2 protein is phosphorylated by Erk2 and subsequently degraded through the proteosome. It is therefore by Mek-inhibition through PD0325901 or 2i that enables the stabilization and accumulation of Klf2 to sustain ground state pluripotency. Importantly, we found that Klf2-null mESCs, while viable under LIF/Serum conditions, cannot be maintained and eventually gradually die within a few passages. Our result thus demonstrates that Klf2 is an essential factor of ground state pluripotency. Collectively, our study defines the Mek/Klf2 axis that cooperates with the Gsk3/Esrrb pathway in mediating ground state pluripotency.
