Regulatory Functional Landscape of the HMX1 Gene for Normal Ear Development [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Enhancers, through the combinatorial action of transcription factors (TFs), dictate both the spatial specificity and the levels of gene expression, and their aberrations can result in diseases. The association between HMX1 and its downstream enhancer with ear deformities has been previously documented. However, the pathogenic variations and molecular mechanisms underlying the bilateral constricted ear (BCE) malformations remain unclear. This study identifies a copy number variation (CNV) encompassing three enhancers that induces BCE. These enhancers, collectively termed the positional identity hierarchical enhancer cluster (PI-HEC), co-regulate HMX1, each displaying unique activity-location-structure characteristics. A thorough exploration of this regulatory locus reveals that specific motif clusters within the PI-HEC variably modulate its activity and specificity, with the high mobility group (HMG) box combined with Coordinator and homeodomain (HD)-TFs notably influencing them respectively. Our findings based on various types of mouse models, reveal that both aberrant Hmx1 expression in the fibroblasts of the basal pinna, originating from neural crest cells, and ectopic expression in the distal pinna structures contribute to the abnormal development of the outer ear, including the cartilage, muscle, and epidermis tissues. This study deepens our understanding of mammalian ear morphogenesis and sheds light on the complexity of gene expression regulation by enhancers and specific sequence motifs.

Transcriptome comparison of murine wild-type and dumbo retinas at P15

Project description:Hmx1 is a transcription factor expressed in the developing eye and ear and in some other parts of the nervous system. Dumbo mice are carrying the Hmx1 p.Q64X loss-of-function mutation (Munroe et al., 2009. BMC Developmental Biology). Transcriptomic analyses of this mouse model allows to decipher biological pathways under the control of Hmx1. In our study, we used it to better understand the role of Hmx1 in the retina and to identify several of its target genes. Wild-type and dumbo mice were maintained in a 12-hours light/12-hours dark cycle with free access to food and water. Animals were sacrified at P15 for retina isolation and RNA extraction.

Control of cell identity and early neural fate commitment by the enhancer module of Integrator

Project description:Lineage-specific transcription factors (TFs) operate as master orchestrators of developmental processes by activating select cis-regulatory enhancers and proximal promoters. Direct DNA binding of TFs ultimately drives context-specific recruitment of the basal transcriptional machinery that comprises RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) and a host of polymerase-associated multiprotein complexes, including the metazoan-specific Integrator complex. Integrator is primarily known to modulate RNAPII processivity and to surveil RNA integrity across coding genes. Here we show an enhancer module of Integrator that directs cell fate specification by promoting epigenetic changes and TF binding at neural enhancers. Depletion of Integrator’s INTS10 upends neural traits and derails cells towards mesenchymal identity. Commissioning of neural enhancers relies on Integrator’s enhancer module, which stabilizes SOX2 binding at chromatin upon exit from pluripotency. We propose Integrator as a functional bridge between enhancers and promoters and a main driver of early development, providing new insight into a growing family of neurodevelopmental syndromes.

Effects of black currant extract on gene expression on MCF10A

Project description:To investigate new health functions by blackcurrant extract (BCE), we compare altered of the genes expression before and after BCE (50Î¼g/ml) treatment in MCF10A. MCF10A cells were seeded in culture dish and maintain to confluent. Then medium replace with mammary epithelial cell growth medium kit with or without BCE (50Î¼g/ml). After the cells were incubated for 24 h at 37 Â°C 5% CO2.
