MRNA sequencing of MDA-MB-231 engineered for doxycycline-inducible overexpression of wild-type or mutant myocardin related transcription factor A

ABSTRACT: Myocardin Related Transcription Factor A (MRTF-A), a co-factor or serum response factor (SRF), has been implicated in breast cancer cell migration and metastatic potential. The goal of this sequencing effort was to determine which mRNA were regulated by MRTF-A overexpression and which mRNA were differentially regulated when function-inhibited (SAP-domain deleted or SRF-binding deficient) mutant MRTF-A were overexpressed. GFP and luciferase expressing MDA-MB-231 cells engineered with doxycycline inducible overexpression of wild-type or mutant MRTF-A were treated with doxycycline for 72 hours prior to RNA collection. Two mutant versions of MRTF-A were used 1) a SAP-domain deleted mutant (deleted base-pairs 343-378) and 2) an SRF binding deficient mutant (mutated K237A, Y238A, H239A, Y241A). The cells were plated in a tissue-treated culture dish or on top of matrigel during doxycycline induction. RNA was extracted using the Qiagen RNeasy Plus Mini Kit according the manufacturer's instructions. Libraries were obtained starting from total RNA following the Illumina Stranded Total RNA preparation Ligation with Ribo-Zero Plus protocol. mRNA was then sequenced on the Illumina NextSeq2000.

Project description:Myocardin-related transcription factors (MRTFs) play a central role in the regulation of actin expression and cytoskeletal dynamics. Stimuli that promote actin polymerization allow for shuttling of MRTFs to the nucleus where they activate serum response factor (SRF), a regulator of actin and other cytoskeletal protein genes. SRF is an essential regulator of skeletal muscle differentiation and numerous components of the muscle sarcomere, but the potential involvement of MRTFs in skeletal muscle development has not been examined. We explored the role of MRTFs in muscle development in vivo by generating mutant mice harboring a skeletal muscle-specific deletion of MRTF-B and a global deletion of MRTF-A. These double knockout (dKO) mice were able to form sarcomeres during embryogenesis. However, the sarcomeres were abnormally small and disorganized, causing skeletal muscle hypoplasia and perinatal lethality. Transcriptome analysis demonstrated dramatic dysregulation of actin genes in MRTF dKO mice, highlighting the importance of MRTFs in actin cycling and myofibrillogenesis. MRTFs were also necessary for the survival of skeletal myoblasts and for the efficient formation of intact myotubes. Our findings reveal a central role for MRTFs in sarcomere formation during skeletal muscle development and point to the potential involvement of these transcriptional coactivators in skeletal myopathies. Gene expression profile was generated comparing wild type (WT) and HSA-Cre, MRTF-A/B double knockout mice, by deep seqencing, with three biological replicates, using Illumina HiSeq 2500.

Project description:Myocardin-Related Transcription Factors A and B (MRTF-A and MRTF-B) are highly homologous proteins that function as powerful coactivators of serum response factor (SRF), a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor essential for cardiac development. The SRF/MRTF complex binds to CArG boxes found in the control regions of genes that regulate cytoskeletal dynamics and muscle contraction, among other processes. While SRF is required for heart development and function, the role of MRTFs in the developing or adult heart has not been explored. Through cardiac-specific deletion of MRTF alleles in mice, we show that either MRTF-A or MRTF-B is dispensable for cardiac development and function, whereas deletion of both MRTF-A and MRTF-B causes a spectrum of structural and functional cardiac abnormalities. Defects observed in MRTF-A/B null mice ranged from reduced cardiac contractility and adult onset heart failure to neonatal lethality accompanied by sarcomere disarray. RNA-seq analysis on neonatal hearts identified the most altered pathways in MRTF double knockout hearts as being involved in cytoskeletal organization. Together, these findings demonstrate redundant but essential roles of the MRTFs in maintenance of cardiac structure and function and as indispensible links in cardiac cytoskeletal gene regulatory networks.

MRTF-SRF signaling is required for seeding of HSC/Ps in bone marrow during development

Project description:Chemokine signaling is important for the seeding of different sites by hematopoietic stem cells during development. Serum Response Factor (SRF) controls multiple genes governing adhesion and migration, mainly by recruiting members of the Myocardin-Related Transcription Factor (MRTF) family of G-actin regulated cofactors. We used vav-iCre to inactivate MRTF-SRF signaling early during hematopoietic development. In both Srf- and Mrtf-deleted animals, hematopoiesis in fetal liver and spleen is intact, but does not become established in fetal bone marrow. Srf-null HSC/Ps (hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells) fail to effectively engraft in transplantation experiments, exhibiting normal proximal signaling responses to SDF-1, but reduced adhesiveness, F-actin assembly, and reduced motility. Srf-null HSC/Ps fail to polarise in response to SDF-1, and cannot migrate through restrictive membrane pores to SDF-1 or Scf in vitro. Mrtf-null HSC/Ps were also defective in chemotactic responses to SDF-1. MRTF-SRF signaling is thus critical for the response to chemokine signaling during hematopoietic development.

Definition of the fibroblast SRF-mediated immediate-early transcriptional response

Project description:To control transcription, SRF recruits signal-regulated co-activators, the Ternary Complex Factors (TCFs) and the Myocardin-related Transcription Factors (MRTFs), which compete for a common site on its DNA-binding domain. The TCFs - SAP-1, Elk-1 and Net - are Ets proteins that link SRF activity to Ras-ERK signalling. In contrast, the two MRTFs, MRTF-A and MRTF-B, link SRF activity to Rho-actin signalling. In this novel signalling pathway, the actin-binding MRTF RPEL domain acts as a G-actin sensor, controlling MRTF nuclear accumulation in response to signal-induced depletion of the G-actin pool. Previous studies have suggested that the Ras-ERK signalling and Rho-actin pathways control specific subsets of SRF target genes. We used ChIP-seq and RNA-seq to analyse the immediate-early transcriptional response in NIH3T3 fibroblasts, using pathway-specific inhibitors to identify the contributions of Ras-ERK and Rho-actin signalling Chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq) in NIH3T3 fibroblast after serum stimulation in presence or absence of LatrunculinB or U0126 drugs and using antibodies against SRF, MRTF-A, MRTF-B, SAP1, ELK1, NET, Pol II, PolII S5P, PolII S2P and total H3. Validation by ChIP-PCR. Strand specific total-RNA-seq following DSN normalisation and validation by qRT-PCR from NIH3T3 stimulated by serum or Cytochalasin D in presence or absence of LatrunculinB and/or U0126 drugs.

Lap2α is required for MRTF-A-SRF transcriptional activity [RNA-seq]

Project description:Myocardin-related transcription factor A (MRTF-A) in complex with the serum response factor (SRF) regulates the expression of cytoskeletal genes in response to cytoplasmic and nuclear actin dynamics. Different components of nucleoskeleton, besides nuclear actin, also regulate the activity of MRTF-A. Here we extend these studies by showing that lamina-associated polypeptide 2α (Lap2α), the nucleoplasmic isoform of Lap2, is a novel regulator, and a direct binding partner of MRTF-A. Lap2α is a nucleoplasmic protein that interacts with A-type lamins and the retinoblastoma protein (pRb) and contributes to chromatin organization. Unlike other known MRTF-A regulators, Lap2α is not required for MRTF-A nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling; it functions within the nucleus where it binds MRTF-A directly via its unique C-terminal domain prior to MRTF-A forming the complex with chromatin and SRF. Such interaction affects MRTF-A transcriptional activity since genome-wide analysis revealed reduced binding of MRTF-A to SRF target genes in Lap2α knockout cells compared to control cells that consequently led to impaired expression of target genes. Our studies therefore add another regulatory layer to the control MRTF-A-SRF-mediated gene expression, and broaden the role of Lap2α in transcriptional regulation.

The CAP1 represses MRTF-SRF–dependent gene expression in the mouse cerebral cortex by an actin-dependent mechanism

Project description:Serum response factor (SRF) is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor that is essential for brain development and function. SRF activity is controlled by two competing classes of coactivators, myocardin-related transcription factors (MRTF) and ternary complex factors, which introduce specificity into gene expression programs. Here, we explored the MRTF-mediated regulatory mechanism in mouse cortical neurons. Using gene-reporter assays and pharmacological and genetic approaches in isolated mouse cortical neurons, we found that cyclase-associated protein 1 (CAP1) repressed neuronal MRTF-SRF activity. CAP1 promoted cytosolic retention of MRTF by controlling cytosolic G-actin levels that required its helical folded domain and its CARP domain. This function of CAP1 was not redundant with that of its homolog CAP2 and was independent of cofilin1 and actin-depolymerizing factor. Deep RNA sequencing and mass spectrometry in cerebral cortex lysates from CAP1 knockout (CAP1-KO) mice supported the in vivo relevance for the CAP1-actin-MRTF-SRF signaling axis. Our study identified CAP1 as a repressor of neuronal gene expression and led to the identification of likely MRTF-SRF target genes in the developing cerebral cortex, whose dysregulation may contribute to impaired formation of neuronal networks in CAP1-KO mice. Together with our previous studies that implicated CAP1 in actin dynamics in axonal growth cones or excitatory synapses, we established CAP1 as a crucial actin regulator in neurons.
