Project description:Here we have developed a method to identify chromatin-bound partners of a protein of interest by selective isolation of chromatin-associated proteins (SICAP) followed by mass spectrometry. We applied SICAP to identify chromatin-binding proteins associated to Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells.

Abstract:
Recent ChIP experiments of human and mouse embryonic stem cells have elucidated the architecture of the transcriptional regulatory circuitry responsible for cell determination, which involves the transcription factors OCT4, SOX2, and NANOG. In addition to regulating each other through feedback loops, these genes also regulate downstream target genes involved in the maintenance and differentiation of embryonic stem cells. A search for the OCT4-SOX2-NANOG network motif in other species reveals that it is unique to mammals. With a kinetic modeling approach, we ascribe function to the observed OCT4-SOX2-NANOG network by making plausible assumptions about the interactions between the transcription factors at the gene promoter binding sites and RNA polymerase (RNAP), at each of the three genes as well as at the target genes. We identify a bistable switch in the network, which arises due to several positive feedback loops, and is switched on/off by input environmental signals. The switch stabilizes the expression levels of the three genes, and through their regulatory roles on the downstream target genes, leads to a binary decision: when OCT4, SOX2, and NANOG are expressed and the switch is on, the self-renewal genes are on and the differentiation genes are off. The opposite holds when the switch is off. The model is extremely robust to parameter changes. In addition to providing a self-consistent picture of the transcriptional circuit, the model generates several predictions. Increasing the binding strength of NANOG to OCT4 and SOX2, or increasing its basal transcriptional rate, leads to an irreversible bistable switch: the switch remains on even when the activating signal is removed. Hence, the stem cell can be manipulated to be self-renewing without the requirement of input signals. We also suggest tests that could discriminate between a variety of feedforward regulation architectures of the target genes by OCT4, SOX2, and NANOG.

Project description:Protein-protein proximity of core pluripotency transcription factors plays an important role during cell reprogramming. Pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cell identity is controlled by a trio of transcription factors: Sox2, Oct4, and Nanog. These proteins often bind to closely localized genomic sites. The precise mode by which Sox2, Oct4, and Nanog interact with DNA is likely to make a crucial contribution to their function. Here, a detailed protocol for in vivo detection and quantitative analysis of protein-protein proximity of Sox2 and Oct4 using Proximity Utilizing Biotinylation (PUB) method based on the use of the BAP/BirA (target/enzyme) system is described. The method includes design and cloning of DNA plasmid construct, transient transfection of HEK293T cells, Western blot analysis of nuclei fraction and LC-MS/MS analysis. Experiments with coexpression of BAP-X+BirA-Y (X, Y=Sox2, Oct4 and GFP as control) revealed strong biotinylation level of target proteins when X and Y were pluripotency transcription factors compared with control when X=GFP. Since mass spectrometry provides both high sensitivity and more accurate quantification of data a modified workflow was used, in which SDS-PAGE step was eliminated and His-tagged BAP-fused proteins from cell lysate were purified in 6M guanidine HCl buffer, washed, propionylated, digested directly on the Ni sepharose beads using trypsin and analysed on Q-TOF Impact II instrument. Using mass spectrometry allows making quantitative estimation of in vivo interaction of BAP-Sox2 and BirA-Oct4 which was demonstrated by measuring ratios of biotinylation levels of BAP fused either with Sox2 or GFP at different biotin pulse times. After vector preparation this protocol can be completed in seven working days.

Project description:The transcription factors Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog have essential roles in early development and are required for the propagation of undifferentiated embryonic stem (ES) cells in culture. To gain insights into transcriptional regulation of human ES cells, we have identified Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog target genes using genome-scale location analysis. We found, surprisingly, that Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog co-occupy a substantial portion of their target genes. These target genes frequently encode transcription factors, many of which are developmentally important homeodomain proteins. Our data also indicates that Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog collaborate to form regulatory circuitry in ES cells consisting of autoregulatory and feedforward loops. These results provide new insights into the transcriptional regulation of stem cells and reveal how Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog contribute to pluripotency and self-renewal.

Project description:The transcription factors Nanog, Oct4 and Sox2 are the master regulators of pluripotency in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), however, their functions in human ESCs (hESCs) have not been rigorously defined. Here we show that the requirements for NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2 in hESCs differ from those in mESCs. Both NANOG and OCT4 are required for self-renewal and repress differentiation. OCT4 controls both extraembryonic and epiblast-derived cell fates in a BMP4-dependent manner. OCT4-depleted hESCs commit to trophectoderm and primitive endoderm in the presence of BMP4, but undergo neuroectoderm differentiation in the absence of BMP4. NANOG represses neuroectoderm and neural crest commitment, but has little or no effect on the other lineages. We find that SOX2 is not required for self-renewal because it is redundant with SOX3, which is induced in SOX2-depleted hESCs. Simultaneous depletion of both SOX2 and SOX3 induces differentiation into the primitive streak. Unexpectedly, we identify significant variability in the usage of pluripotency factors by individual hESC lines, suggesting that the pluripotency network is remodelled to support a continuum of developmental states. Our study revises the general view of how NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2 orchestrate self-renewal in hESCs. Total RNA obtained from EF1a-control-, OE-NANOG-, OE-OCT4- or OE-SOX2-transduced hESCs.
