Identification of Transcriptional Targets Dual Functions Transcription Factor/Phosphatase Eyes Absent

ABSTRACT: Drosophila eye specification an development relies on a collection of transcription factors termed the retinal determination gene network (RDGN). Two members of this network, Eyes absent (EYA) and Sine oculis (SO), form a transcriptional complex in which EYA provides the transactivation function while SO provides the DNA binding activity. EYA also function as a protein tyrosine phosphatase, raising the question of whether transcriptional output is dependent or independent of phosphatase activity. To explore this, we used microarrays together with binding site analysis, quantitative real-time PCR, chromatin immunoprecipitation, genetics, and in vivo expression analysis to identify new EYA-SO targets. In parallel, we examined the expression profiles of tissue expressing phosphatase mutant eya and found that reducing phosphatase activity did not globally impair transcriptional output. Among the targets identified by our analysis was the cell cycle regulatory gene, string (stg), suggesting that EYA and SO may influence cell proliferation through transcriptional regulation of stg. Future investigation into the regulation of stg and other EYA-SO targets identified in this study will help elucidate the transcriptional circuitries whereby output from the RDGN integrates with other signaling inputs to coordinate retinal development. Keywords: gain of function, expression comparison

Transcription profiling of Drosophila tissue expressing phosphatase mutant eya shows that reducing phosphatase activity did not globally impair transcriptional output

Project description:Drosophila eye specification an development relies on a collection of transcription factors termed the retinal determination gene network (RDGN). Two members of this network, Eyes absent (EYA) and Sine oculis (SO), form a transcriptional complex in which EYA provides the transactivation function while SO provides the DNA binding activity. EYA also function as a protein tyrosine phosphatase, raising the question of whether transcriptional output is dependent or independent of phosphatase activity. To explore this, we used microarrays together with binding site analysis, quantitative real-time PCR, chromatin immunoprecipitation, genetics, and in vivo expression analysis to identify new EYA-SO targets.

Among the targets identified by our analysis was the cell cycle regulatory gene, string (stg), suggesting that EYA and SO may influence cell proliferation through transcriptional regulation of stg. Future investigation into the regulation of stg and other EYA-SO targets identified in this study will help elucidate the transcriptional circuitries whereby output from the RDGN integrates with other signaling inputs to coordinate retinal development. Experiment Overall Design: We compared gene expression across duplicate samples for controls in which eya was not overexpressed to duplicate samples in which a wildtye overexpressed eya transgene, an eya mutant transgene with the D493N mutation, which reduces phosphatase activity, and a second eya mutant transgene with the E728Q mutation, which has little is any posphatase activity.

The Eyes Absent family members EYA4 and EYA1 promote PLK1 activation and successful mitosis through tyrosine dephosphorylation: siEYA4 pY IP-MS

Project description:The Eyes Absent family of proteins (EYA1-4) are a biochemically unique group of tyrosine phosphatases known to be tumour promoting across a range of cancer types. To date, the molecular targets of EYA phosphatase activity remain largely uncharacterised. Here, we identify Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) as a direct interactor and phosphatase substrate of both EYA4 and EYA1, with pY445 on PLK1 being the primary target site. EYA-mediated dephosphorylation of PLK1 in the G2 phase of the cell cycle is required for centrosome maturation, PLK1 localization to centrosomes, and polo-box domain (PBD) dependent interactions between PLK1 and the PLK1-activating proteins BORA and CEP192. Molecular dynamics simulations support the rationale that pY445 confers a structural impairment to PBD-substrate interactions that is relieved by EYA-mediated dephosphorylation. Depletion of EYA4 or EYA1, or chemical inhibition of EYA phosphatase activity, dramatically reduces PLK1 activation, causing mitotic defects and cell death. Overall, we have characterized a novel phosphotyrosine signalling network governing PLK1 and mitosis. This work provides a mechanism of cell killing for EYA phosphatase inhibitors with important therapeutic implications.

Genome-wide binding of the homeodomain transcription factor Sine oculis (So) in the Drosophila eye imaginal disc

Project description:We report genome-wide binding of the highly conserved TF Sine oculis (So), which is necessary for Drosophila eye development and has few previously known direct transcriptional targets. Our data identify novel putative targets of So-mediated regulation, including genes involved in multiple aspects of development. 2 biological replicates of ChIP-seq with anti-So antibody on chromatin from D. melanogaster third instar eye-antennal imaginal discs; negative control - same sample and ChIP-seq protocol without anti-So antibody

Development of a benzarone derivative as targeted therapy for SHH-medulloblastoma [Day 1]

Project description:Medulloblastoma is one of the most common malignant brain tumors of children, and 30% of medulloblastomas are driven by gain-of-function genetic lesions in the Sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway. Eyes Absent (EYA1), a haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) phosphatase and co-transcription factor, is critical for tumorigenesis and proliferation of SHH-medulloblastoma (SHH-MB). Benzarone and benzbromarone have been identified as allosteric inhibitors for the Eya proteins. Using benzarone as a point of departure, we developed a panel of 35 derivatives, and identified one new compound, DS-1-38, that functions as an Eya-antagonist, opposes SHH-signaling, inhibits SHH-MB growth in vitro and in vivo, shows excellent brain penetrance and increases the lifespan of mice predisposed to fatal SHH-MB. Our data suggest that DS-1-38 provides a path for developing targeted therapeutic for pediatric SHH-MB.

Genome-wide mapping of Collier in vivo binding sites highlights its hierarchical position in different transcription regulatory networks

Project description:Collier, the single Drosophila COE (Collier/EBF/Olf-1) transcription factor, is required in several developmental processes, including head patterning and specification of muscle and neuron identity during embryogenesis. To identify direct Collier (Col) targets in different cell types, we used ChIP-seq to map Col binding sites throughout the genome, at mid-embryogenesis. In vivo Col binding peaks were associated to 415 potential direct target genes. Gene Ontology analysis revealed a strong enrichment in proteins with DNA binding and/or transcription-regulatory properties. Characterization of a selection of candidates, using transgenic CRM-reporter assays, identified direct Col targets in dorso-lateral somatic muscles and specific neuron types in the central nervous system. These data brought new evidence that Col direct control of the expression of the transcription regulators apterous and eyes-absent (eya) is critical to specifying neuronal identities. They also showed that cross-regulation between col and eya in muscle progenitor cells is required for specification of muscle identity, revealing a new parallel between the myogenic regulatory networks operating in Drosophila and vertebrates. Col regulation of eya, both in specific muscle and neuronal lineages, may illustrate one mechanism behind the evolutionary diversification of Col biological roles.

Project description:Shp2, a critical SH2-domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase, is essential for cellular regulation and implicated in metabolic disruptions, obesity, diabetes, Noonan syndrome, LEOPARD syndrome, and cancers. This study focuses on Shp2 in rod photoreceptor cells, revealing its enrichment, particularly in rods. Deletion of Shp2 in rods leads to age-dependent photoreceptor degeneration. Shp2 targets occludin (OCLN), a tight junction protein, and its deletion reduces OCLN expression in the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Isolation of actively translating mRNAs from rods lacking Shp2, followed by RNA sequencing, reveals alterations in cell cycle regulation. Altered retinal metabolism is observed in retinal cells lacking Shp2. Our studies indicate that Shp2 is crucial for maintaining the structure and function of photoreceptors.
