The disruption of CtBP regulates DUX-dependent and -independent genetic program for the 2-cell-like state in murine embryonic stem cells [RNA-seq and RRBS]

ABSTRACT: After fertilization, maternally deposited mRNA is cleared, and de novo mRNA is transcribed from the zygotic genome through zygotic genome activation (ZGA), which is called maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) occurring in the mouse at 2-cell (2C) stage. 2C-like cells (2CLCs) marked by MERVL expression and transcriptionally similar to 2C embryos spontaneously emerge from mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Although the emergence of 2CLCs completely depends on DUX function, a recent knockout study clearly showed that DUX is dispensable for mouse embryos, suggesting that DUX-independent molecular pathways are not recapitulated in 2CLCs. We present here that the disruption of C-terminal binding protein 1/2 (Ctbp1/2) activates DUX-dependent and -independent molecular pathway associated with the development of early mouse embryos mediated by the upregulation of Preferentially expressed antigen of melanoma family-like 7 (PRAMEL7). Furthermore, the abnormality of the gene expression profile caused by Dux KO is partially rescued by the overexpression of PRAMEL7 in mESCs. Our study provides new insights into the DUX-independent molecular pathway for developing early mouse embryos.

DUX-miR-344-ZMYM2-mediated activation of MERVL LTRs induces a totipotent 2C-like state [ZMYM2 ChIP-seq]

Project description:Mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) sporadically express preimplantation two-cell-stage (2C) transcripts, including MERVL endogenous retrovirus and Zscan4 cluster genes. Such 2C-like cells (2CLCs) can contribute to both embryonic and extraembryonic tissues when reintroduced into early embryos. We examined global nucleosome occupancy and gene expression in 2CLCs and identified miR-344 as the noncoding molecule that positively controls 2CLC potency. We found that activation of endogenous MERVL or miR-344-2 alone is sufficient to induce 2CLCs with induction of 2C genes and an expanded potency. Mechanistically, miR-344 is activated by the 2C-state driver DUX and post-transcriptionally represses ZMYM2 and LSD1, which recruit the HDAC corepressor to MERVL LTR for transcriptional repression. Consistently, zygotic depletion of Zmym2 compromises the totipotency-to-pluripotency transition during early development. Our studies establish the novel DUX->miR-344--|Zmym2/Lsd1 axis that controls MERVL for expanded stem cell potency.

DPPA2/4 and SUMO E3 ligase PIAS4 opposingly regulate the emergence of 2C-like cells and zygotic transcriptional program

Project description:The molecular mechanism controlling the zygotic genome activation (ZGA) in mammals remains poorly understood. The 2C-like cells spontaneously emerging from cultures of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) share some key transcriptional and epigenetic programs with 2-cell stage embryos. By studying the transition of ESCs into 2C-like cells, we identified Dppa2/4 as important regulators controlling zygotic transcriptional program through directly upregulating the expression of Dux. In addition, we found that DPPA2 protein is sumoylated and its activity is negatively regulated by Sumo E3 ligase PIAS4. PIAS4 is downregulated during zygotic genome activation process and during transitioning of ESCs into 2C-like cells. Depleting Pias4 or overexpressing Dppa2/4 is sufficient to upregulateactivate 2C-like transcriptional program, while depleting Dppa2/4 or forced expression of PIAS4 or Sumo2-Dppa2 inhibits 2C-like transcriptional program. Furthermore, ectopic expression of Pias4 or Sumo2-Dppa2 impairs early mouse embryo development. In summary, our study identifies key molecular rivals consisting of transcription factors and a Sumo2 E3 ligase that regulate the transition of ESCs into 2C-like cells and zygotic transcriptional program upstream of Dux.

Loss of DUX causes minor defects in zygotic genome activation and is compatible with mouse development

Project description:How maternal factors in oocytes trigger zygotic genome activation (ZGA) is a long-standing question in developmental biology. Recent studies in 2-cell like embryonic stem cells (2C-like cells) implicate that the DUX family transcription factors are key regulators of ZGA in placental mammals. To characterize the role of DUX in ZGA, we generated Dux cluster knockout (KO) mouse lines. Unexpectedly, we found both Dux zygotic KO (Z-KO) and maternal/zygotic KO (MZ-KO) embryos can survive to adulthood despite showing reduced developmental potential. Furthermore, transcriptome profiling of the MZ-KO embryos revealed that loss of DUX has minimal effect on ZGA and most DUX targets in 2C-like cells are normally activated in MZ-KO embryos. Thus, contrary to the key function in inducing 2C-like cells, our data indicate that DUX only has a minor role in ZGA and loss of DUX is compatible with mouse development.

A TRIM66/DAX1/Dux axis suppresses the totipotent 2-cell-like state in murine embryonic stem cells

Project description:2 cell-like cells (2CLCs) resemble blastomeres of the 2-cell stage of embryo and are used as an in vitro model to understand the onset of zygotic genome activation (ZGA). 2CLCs comprise only ~1% of murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs). However, their specification remains unclear. Here, we show that TRIM66 restricts 2CLCs specification by repressing Dux in mESCs. Mutational assays and a solved crystal structure demonstrate that TRIM66’s PHD finger recognizes H3K4K9me3 and Bromo domain recognizes H3K18ac. Moreover, TRIM66 functions as a bridge factor to recruit the transcriptional repressor Dax1 to the Dux promoter preventing expansion of 2CLCs in mESCs. Rrecruitment of Dax1 to the Dux promoter requires TRIM66 and TRIM66’s repressive effect on Dux transcription is dependent on Dax1. Thus, beyond expanding the scope of known regulators of 2CLCs and showing TRIM66 as a chromatin-modification reader, our study suggests multiple strategies for harnessing the biotechnological and medical potential of 2CLCs.

Ythdf2 Suppresses the 2C-like State in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells via Cooperation with Cnot1 [RIP-seq]

Project description:Mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) consist of a rare population of heterogeneous cells which express 2-cell-stage-specific transcripts and are referred to as 2-cell-like cells (2CLCs). Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that transcription factors and epigenetic modifications exert crucial functions in the transition of ESCs to 2CLCs. However, the roles of RNA modification in the regulation of 2C-like state remain elusive. Using Dux-induced 2CLCs system, we examine N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification landscape in transcriptome-wide, and find that m6A is dynamically regulated during Dux-driven 2C-like reprogramming. Intriguingly, many of 2C-specific transcripts are highly methylated, including Dux and Zscan4 cluster genes. We further identify the m6A reader protein Ythdf2 as a critical regulator of 2C-like state. Depletion of Ythdf2 facilitates robust expressions of 2C transcripts and the transition of ESCs to 2CLCs. Mechanically, Ythdf2 binds to the Dux/Zscan4 transcripts and promotes their degradation through recruiting the key component of RNA deadenylase complex, Cnot1. Consistent with the phenotype of Ythdf2 deficiency, silencing of Cnot1 induces the 2C gene expressions and the transition of ESCs into the 2C-like state. Collectively, our findings reveal novel insights into the epitranscriptomic regulation of the 2C-like state in mouse ESCs.
