Investigating genome occupancy of SOX10 in avian melanocytes

ABSTRACT: Domestic rock pigeons (Columba livia) homozygous for either of two “recessive red” mutations, which are partially-overlapping deletions causing downregulation of Sox10, display brilliant red colors instead of blue/black feathers. Sox10 encodes a transcription factor important for melanocyte differentiation and function, but the precise role that it plays in promoting eumelanin over pheomelanin pigment production in pigeons are unknown. In this study, we perform ChIPseq for SOX10, H3K27ac, and H3K27me3 to better understand the genome occupancy of SOX10 in avian melanocytes.

SOX10 regulates multiple genes to direct eumelanin vs. pheomelanin production in domestic rock pigeon

Project description:The domesticated rock pigeon (Columba livia) has been bred for hundreds of years to display an immense variety of ornamental attributes such as feather color and color patterns. Color is influenced by multiple loci that impact the type and amount of melanin deposited on the feathers. Pigeons homozygous for the “recessive red” mutation, which causes downregulation of Sox10, display brilliant red feathers instead of blue/black feathers. Sox10 encodes a transcription factor important for melanocyte differentiation and function, but the genes that mediate its promotion of black vs. red pigment are unknown. Here, we present a transcriptomic comparison of regenerating feathers from wild-type and recessive red pigeons to identify candidate SOX10 targets. Our results identify both known and novel targets, including many genes not previously implicated in pigmentation. These data highlight the value of using novel, emerging model organisms to gain insight into the genetic basis of pigment variation.

A molecular shift in limb identity underlies the convergent evolution and development of feathered feet

Project description:The genetic and developmental mechanisms that control the decision between scale and feather growth â two profoundly different epidermal appendages, and an important developmental shift in the evolution of birds from their dinosaurian ancestors â remain poorly understood. Domestic pigeons display dramatic variation in foot epidermal appendages within a single species, and classical studies suggest that a small number of genes control much of this variation; thus pigeons provide a tractable model to understand skin appendage specification and variation. Here we show that feathered feet in pigeons are the consequence of a partial transformation of limb-type identity mediated by cis-regulatory changes in the hindlimb-specific transcription factor Pitx1 and forelimb-specific transcription factor Tbx5. We also demonstrate that ectopic hindlimb expression of Tbx5 is associated with the development of foot feathers in domestic chickens, suggesting that similar developmental mechanisms underlie phenotypic convergence in avian lineages that diverged over 100 MYA. These results show how qualitative and quantitative changes in expression of regional patterning genes can generate localized changes in organ fate and morphology, and provide a viable molecular mechanism for the evolution of hindlimb scale and feather distribution in dromaeosaurs.

eQTL analysis for variation in reddish/brown colouration measured in growing feathers using gene expression levels obtained by Microarray

Project description:The aim of the experiment is to identify genes that are contributing too variation in the intensity of reddish/brown colouration seen in feathers from a wild x domestic advanced intercross line of chickens. RNA was isolated from growing feathers with varying levels of reddish/brown colouration (eg. dark red, red, orange, yellow). The intensity of the colour was measured relative to a true red colour chart and expressed as percentage of the reference colour. A lower colour score indicates a darker red colour(~0,30) and a pure white gives a score of ~0,95. QTL regions for the peak and average colour score measured across the wing were obtained from a mapping population. An eQTL analysis was performed by using the gene expression levels from all genes located within the previously identified QTL confidence intervals. The gene expression values for the genes located within the confidence intervals are available in the data file.

Expression Patterns of SOX10 deficient BRAFi/MEKi tolerant and SOX10 KO A375 cell lines

Project description:Given the heterogeneous expression of SOX10 in naïve melanoma, we sought to characterize SOX10 deficient population. To this end, we generated SOX10 CRISPR/Cas9 knockouts using two different guide RNAs (gRNA, #2 and #4) in the A375 (BRAF mutant) metastatic cell line. Using this approach, we identified multiple clones with loss of SOX10 expression. RNA-seq was performed to characterize the SOX10-regulated transcriptome. We used GSEA analysis to evaluate significant pathway changes in SOX10 knockout cells when compared to parental cells. We observed an enrichment in pathways associated with the tumor microenvironment (epithelial-mesenchymal transition; TGF beta signaling; extracellular structure organization; apical junction; hypoxia; angiogenesis), alterations in metabolic pathways (increase in the glycolysis pathway), a reduction in MYC and E2F targets and upregulation in p53 pathway and TNFA signaling via NFkB in the SOX10 knockout cells compared to parental cells. SOX10 negative clones have been identified in the minimal residual disease in BRAF mutant PDX models following BRAF and MEK inhibition and in patient samples while on treatment and SOX10 loss has been described as a resistant mechanism in BRAF mutant melanoma patients following vemurafenib treatment. Thus, we also analyzed the transcriptome profile of SOX10 low/deficient cells that arose following BRAFi+MEKi treatment in vivo. We performed GSEA analysis on RNA-seq data of CRT34 and CRT35 cells compared to parental A375 cells. CRT34 and CRT35 showed a very similar transcriptome profile to SOX10 KO cells when compared to A375 parental cells

The role of SOX10 in human melanoma

Project description:We have shown that Sox10 plays a crucial role in the initiation and maintenance of giant congenital nevi and melanoma in a mouse model of melanoma.To dissect the molecular mechanisms and analyze the role of SOX10 in the maintenance of human melanoma, we have performed microarray study. Human melanoma cell line M010817 was transfected with either control shRNA or SOX10 shRNA. RNA was isolated at 48 hours and 96 hours after transfection and subjected to hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
