Project description:The POU-domain transcription factor Oct-1 is widely expressed in adult tissues and has been proposed to regulate a large group of target genes. Microarray expression profiling was used to evaluate gene expression changes in Oct-1-deficient mouse fibroblasts. A number of genes associated with cellular stress exhibited altered expression. Consistent with this finding, Oct-1-deficient fibroblasts were hypersensitive to radiation, doxorubicin, and hydrogen peroxide and harbored elevated reactive oxygen species. Expression profiling identified a second group of genes dysregulated in Oct-1-deficient fibroblasts following irradiation, including many associated with oxidative and metabolic stress. A number of these genes contain octamer sequences in their immediate 5' regulatory regions, some of which are conserved in human. These results indicate that Oct-1 modulates the activity of genes important for the cellular response to stress. overall experiment design: WT,WTR,MU and MUR replicates from Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Expression Set 430 Arrays A and B

Project description:Embryonic stem cell (ESCs) identity is orchestrated by co-operativity between the transcription factors (TFs) Sox2 and the class V POU-TF, Oct4 at composite Sox/Oct motifs. Neural stem cells (NSCs) lack Oct4 but express Sox2 and class III POU-TFs. This raises the question of how Sox2 interacts with POU-TFs to transcriptionally specify ESCs or NSCs. Here we show that Oct4 alone binds the Sox/Oct motif and the octamer-containing palindromic MORE equally well. Sox2 binding selectively increases the affinity of Oct4 for the Sox/Oct motif. In contrast, Oct6 binds preferentially to the MORE, and is unaffected by Sox2. ChIP-seq in NSCs shows the MORE to be the most enriched motif for class III POU-TFs, with MORE sub-types apparent, but no Sox/Oct motif enrichment. These results suggest that in NSCs, co-operativity between Sox2 and class III POU-TFs may not occur and that POU-TF driven transcription uses predominantly the MORE cis architecture. Thus, distinct interactions between Sox2 and POU-TF subclasses distinguish pluripotent ESCs from multipotent NSCs, providing molecular insight into how Oct4 alone can convert NSCs to pluripotency.

Project description:A new method for proteomic studies of OCT-embedded samples based on ultrasound energy is proposed. The cleaning of OCT from mouse kidney embedded tissues were evaluated through the aid of ultrasound energy, with two different frequencies. Simultaneously, vortex agitation was used as control. The optimized method obtained was then applied in human tumor kidney biopsies including chromophobe renal cell carcinomas (chRCC) and renal oncocytomas (RO).

Project description:A small number of transcription factors, including Oct-3/4 and Sox2, constitute the transcriptional network that maintains pluripotency in embryonic stem (ES) cells. Previous reports suggested that some of these factors form a complex that binds the Oct-Sox element, a composite sequence consisting of closely juxtaposed Oct-3/4-binding and Sox2-binding sites. However, little is known regarding the components of the complex. In this study, we show that Sall4, a member of the Spalt-like family of proteins, directly interacts with Sox2 and Oct-3/4. Sall4 in combination with Sox2 or Oct-3/4 simultaneously occupies the Oct-Sox elements in mouse ES cells. Sall4 knockdown led to differentiation of ES cells. Overexpression of Sall4 in ES cells increased reporter activities in a luciferase assay when the Pou5f1- or Nanog-derived Oct-Sox element was included in the reporter. Microarray analyses revealed that Sall4 and Sox2 bound to the same genes in ES cells significantly more frequently than expected from random coincidence. These factors appeared to bind the promoter regions of a subset of the Sall4- and Sox2-double-positive genes in precisely similar distribution patterns along the promoter regions, suggesting that Sall4 and Sox2 associate with such Sall4/Sox2-overlapping genes as a complex. Importantly, gene ontology analyses indicated that the Sall4/Sox2-overlapping gene set is enriched for genes involved in maintaining pluripotency. Sall4/Sox2/Oct-3/4-triple-positive genes identified by referring to a previous study identifying Oct-3/4-bound genes in ES cells were further enriched for pluripotency genes than Sall4/Sox2-double-positive genes. These results demonstrate that Sall4 contributes to the transcriptional network operating in pluripotent cells, together with Oct-3/4 and Sox2.

Project description:Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histones exert fundamental roles in regulating gene expression. During development, groups of PTMs are constrained by unknown mechanisms into combinatorial patterns, which facilitate transitions from uncommitted embryonic cells into differentiated somatic cell lineages. Repressive histone modifications such as H3K9me3 or H3K27me3 have been investigated in detail, but the role of H4K20me3 in development is currently unknown. Here we show that Xenopus laevis Suv4-20h1 and h2 histone methyltransferases (HMTases) are essential for induction and differentiation of the neuroectoderm. Morpholino-mediated knockdown of the two HMTases leads to a selective and specific downregulation of genes controlling neural induction, thereby effectively blocking differentiation of the neuroectoderm. Global transcriptome analysis supports the notion that these effects arise from the transcriptional deregulation of specific genes rather than widespread, pleiotropic effects. Interestingly, morphant embryos fail to repress the Oct4-related Xenopus gene Oct-25. We validate Oct-25 as direct target of xSu4-20h enzyme-mediated gene repression, showing by chromatin immunoprecipitaton that it is decorated with the H4K20me3 mark downstream of the promoter in normal, but not in double-morphant, embryos. Since knockdown of Oct-25 protein significantly rescues the neural differentiation defect in xSuv4-20h double-morphant embryos, we conclude that the epistatic relationship between Suv4- 20h enzymes and Oct-25 controls the transit from pluripotent to differentiation-competent neural cells. Consistent with these results in Xenopus, murine Suv4-20h1/h2 double-knockout embryonic stem (DKO ES) cells exhibit increased Oct4 protein levels before and during EB formation, and reveal a compromised and biased capacity for in vitro differentiation, when compared to normal ES cells. Together, these results suggest a regulatory mechanism, conserved between amphibian and mammals, in which H4K20me3-dependent restriction of specific POU-V genes directs cell fate decisions, when embryonic cells exit the pluripotent state.

Project description:Oasl1-/- BMDMs express more type I IFN upon poly(I:C) treatment. Because OASL1 seems to rather specifically suppress the type I IFN expression, we tried to address the specificity by determining the defects associated with the Oasl1 mutation using genome-wide gene expression microarray analysis under moderate poly(I:C) stimulation (5 µg/ml for 9 h); this condition was used to identify the primary targets of OASL1 while minimizing the secondary targets induced by the earlier, higher production of type I IFNs in Oasl1-/- cells. Only 23 genes out of approximately 35,000 probed transcripts showed a signal difference greater than two-fold between the WT and KO cells; 15 showed higher signals in KO cells while 8 showed lower signals in KO cells We analyzed total RNA from poly(I:C)-treated WT and Oasl1-/- BMDM using the Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST array. Array data were processed by Affymetrix GCOS software. We compared these using Affymetrix Expression console1.1, TMEV4.4, DAVID.

Project description:Interaction of the Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) Rta protein with the cellular Notch signaling effector, Recombination Signaling Protein (RBP)-Jk (aka CSL and CBF-1), is essential for viral reactivation from latency. We previously showed that Rta binds to a DNA motif repeated in the viral Mta promoter (called “CANT” or Rta-c) to stimulate RBP-Jk DNA binding, and distinguished Rta from the activated Notch-1 protein. To determine whether Rta’s mechanism would apply generally to other viral promoters, we employed chromatin immunoprecipitation/deep sequencing (ChIP/Seq) to identify Rta and RBP-Jk binding sites across the KSHV genome. We show that RBP-Jk binds nearly exclusively to unique genome sites during latency and reactivation. Many, but not all, reactivation-specific RBP-Jk peaks were associated with Rta bound to single Rta-c motifs. Other motifs that were over-represented with stimulated RBP-Jk DNA binding including those for the cellular DNA binding proteins BCL11A, MNT, MAF B, and TCF12. Four of the top seven motifs that were most over-represented with inhibition of RBP-Jk DNA binding were putative binding sites for the Pit/Oct/Unc (POU) family of proteins, including POU3F3 (Oct-8) and POU5F1 (Oct-4). Interestingly, two other POU motifs, including one for the POU2F1 (Oct-1) protein, are associated with inhibition of RBP-Jk DNA binding unless Rta bound to a nearby Rta-c motif. The relative distances between the Rta-c, POU, and RBP-Jk motifs were conserved at reactivation-specific RBP-Jk peaks in three promoters that Rta transactivated, and the Rta-c and Oct-1 motifs overlapped in two of those. The proximity of the Rta-c/Oct-1 motif to an RBP-Jk motif is critical for Rta transactivation of the ORF50AS/KbZIP promoter, and knockdown of Oct-1 protein debilitated reactivation and production of infectious virus. Our data suggest a broad role for POU proteins in regulating DNA binding of RBP-Jk and its associated transactivators.
