Molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation by the nuclear zinc-finger protein Zfat in T cells

ABSTRACT: ZFAT is a nuclear protein that harbors putative DNA-binding domains. Studies in mice have shown that ZFAT plays a critical role in survival and differentiation in T cells. However, molecular mechanisms whereby ZFAT regulates gene expression programs in T cells remain poorly unknown. We here identify the direct target genes of ZFAT in thymocytes through combination of chromatin immunoprecipitation with sequencing and transcriptional profiling.

Molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation by the nuclear zinc-finger protein ZFAT in HEK293 cells

Project description:ZFAT is a nuclear protein that harbors putative DNA-binding domains. Studies in mice have shown that ZFAT plays a critical role in survival and differentiation in T cells. However, molecular mechanisms whereby ZFAT regulates gene expression programs in human cells remain poorly unknown. We here identify the direct target genes of ZFAT in HEK293 human embryonic kidney cells through combination of chromatin immunoprecipitation with sequencing and transcriptional profiling.

Zinc finger protein Zfp335 controls thymocyte differentiation and survival through b-selection-dependent and -independent mechanisms

Project description:T cell development proceeds in a series of developmental stages, which is precisely orchestrated by multiple signaling and molecular networks. Here we found a zinc finger protein Zfp335 intrinsically controls DN to DP transition, as T cell-specific deficiency in Zfp335 leads to a substantial accumulation of DN3 along with reduction of DP, CD4+ and CD8+ thymocytes. This developmental blockade at DN stage results from the impaired intracellular TCRβ expression as well as increased susceptibility to apoptosis in thymocytes. Transcriptomic and ChIP-seq analyses revealed a direct regulation of transcription factors Bcl6 and Rorc by Zfp335. Importantly, enhanced expression of TCRβ and Bcl6/RorγT restores the developmental defect during DN3 to DN4 transition and improves thymocytes survival, respectively. These findings identify a critical role of Zfp335 in controlling T cell development by maintaining intracellular TCR expression-mediated β-selection and independently activating cell survival signaling.

HT-SELEX of recombinant C2H2 zinc finger domains of Sall4

Project description:To define the sequence preference of SALL4 C2H2 zinc finger domains, we performed SELEX coupled with high-throughput sequencing (HT-SELEX) using the purified SALL4 ZFC1, ZFC2 and ZFC4 domains combined with no protein control experiment. We re-sequenced the libraries from E-MTAB-9236 with very high coverage to estimate the minimum number of reads required per sample for accurate results.

Identification of nuclear localization, DNA binding, and transactivating mechanisms of Kruppel-like zinc finger protein Gli-similar 2 (Glis2).

Project description:Gli-similar 1-3 (Glis1-3) constitute a subfamily of Krüppel-like zinc finger (ZF) transcription factors that are closely related to the Gli protein family. Mutations in GLIS2 are linked to nephronophthisis, a chronic kidney disease characterized by renal fibrosis and atrophy in children and young adults. Currently, very little information exists about the mechanism of action of Glis2, its target genes, or the signaling pathways that regulate its activity. In this study, we show that a region within ZF3 is required for the nuclear localization of Glis2. Analysis of Glis2 DNA binding demonstrated that Glis2 binds effectively to the consensus Glis binding sequence (GlisBS) (G/C)TGGGGGGT(A/C). Although Glis2 was unable to induce transactivation of a GlisBS-dependent reporter, it effectively inhibited the GlisBS-mediated transactivation by Gli1. Mutations that disrupt the tetrahedral configuration of each ZF within Glis2 abolished Glis2 binding to GlisBS and also abrogated its inhibition of Gli1-mediated transactivation. In contrast, Glis2 was able to activate the murine insulin-2 (Ins2) promoter by binding directly to two GlisBS elements located at -263 and -99 within the Ins2 promoter. Phosphomimetic mutation of Ser(245) inhibited the binding of Glis2 to GlisBS and dramatically affected its transactivation of the Ins2 promoter and its ability to inhibit GlisBS-dependent transactivation by Gli1. In this study, we demonstrate that Glis2 can function as a transcriptional activator and that post-translational modification within its DNA-binding domain can regulate its transcriptional activity. This control may play a critical role in the Glis2-dependent regulation of target genes and renal function.

A novel nuclear zinc finger protein EZI enhances nuclear retention and transactivation of STAT3.

Project description:A novel cDNA EZI isolated as an oncostatin M- inducible gene encoded a protein containing 12 C2H2-type zinc fingers. EZI was found to transactivate the promoters that are also responsive to STAT3 and activated the acute phase response element (APRE) synergistically with STAT3. Co-immunoprecipitation demonstrated the association of EZI with STAT3, which was mediated by the N-terminal region (1-183) of EZI. The EZI mutant lacking this region showed reduced transcriptional activity, indicating that EZI and STAT3 function cooperatively through physical interaction. While EZI predominantly localized in the nucleus and enhanced the nuclear localization of STAT3, the EZI mutant lacking 11 zinc finger motifs failed to translocate into the nucleus and also inhibited nuclear localization of STAT3 as well as STAT3-mediated transactivation. These results indicate that EZI is a novel nuclear zinc finger protein that augments STAT3 activity by keeping it in the nucleus.

RNA-binding preference of the Roquin-1 CCCH-type zinc finger

Project description:Zinc finger (ZnF) domains are widespread RNA-binding domains, recognizing single stranded and double stranded RNAs. Together with other RNA-binding domains, ZnFs enhance the affinity and specificity of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). The ZnF-containing RBP Roquin controls mRNA decay by recognizing stem-loop elements in the 3'-UTR of its target mRNAs. Stem-loop elements are bound in a shape-specific manner by the unique ROQ domain with nanomolar affinity. The ZnF was suggested to play an essential role in RNA decay by Roquin. However, its RNA motif preference was not investigated so far. Here, we use RBNS to elucidate the RNA binding preference of the isolated Roquin-1 ZnF domain. We find that the ZnF preferentially recognizes single-stranded AU-rich elements (ARE).
