Project description:The genomic mechanisms underlying progressive, irreversible cell lineage commitments and differentiation, which include large scale chromatin re-organization, transcription factor binding, and chromatin modifications, have been well defined. However, we know little about the chromatin changes during transitions between transient cell states such as cell migration. Here we demonstrate the formation of unique complements of typical enhancers and super-enhancers as human progenitor keratinocytes either differentiate or migrate. Unique super-enhancers for each cellular state are linked to gene expression that confer functions associated with each cell state, and sequence variants associated with skin diseases are enriched within super-enhancers. GRHL3, a factor that promotes both differentiation and migration, exhibits prominent super-enhancer interactions in differentiating keratinocytes, while during migration, it preferentially binds to promoters along with REST, repressing the expression of migration inhibitors. Key epidermal differentiation transcription factor genes, including GRHL3, are located within super-enhancers, and many of these transcription factors in turn bind to and regulate super-enhancers. Of note, GRHL3 also represses the formation of a number of progenitor and non-keratinocyte super-enhancers in differentiating keratinocytes. Thus, coordinated GRHL3 binding and enhancer rearrangements regulate the functional states of keratinocytes.

Project description:While the genomic mechanisms underlying progressive, irreversible cell lineage commitments are well-studied, we know little about the chromatin changes during transient cell states such as cell migration. Interestingly, a large number of SEs in NHEK-D and NHEK-M overlap genes encoding transcription factors with important roles in promotion of epidermal differentiation, including GRHL3, TP63, RUNX1, NOTCH3 and FOS. To test the role of these SE-associated transcription factors in a systematic manner, and to place GRHL3 in the context of other keratinocyte differentiation regulators, we used siRNAs to individually knock down GRHL3 and 50 other transcriptional regulators in NHEK-D. These transcriptional regulators were selected based on expression changes during human keratinocyte differentiation. Many have been previously implicated in epidermal differentiation in mice and humans; the genes encoding 22 of them are associated with SEs. To assess the effect of the knockdowns on keratinocyte differentiation, we monitored the expression of approximately 14,000 genes with custom-made Agilent microarrays. Among the 14,000 genes whose expression we monitored were all genes expressed in human keratinocytes and all transcriptional regulators. This 51 x 14,000 gene expression matrix provided a rich dataset to explore gene regulatory networks in epidermal differentiation.

Project description:<p>Transcription factor p63 is a key regulator of epidermal keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. Mutations in the p63 DNA-binding domain are associated with Ectrodactyly Ectodermal Dysplasia Cleft Lip/Palate (EEC) syndrome. Underlying molecular mechanism of these mutations however remain unclear. Here we characterized the transcriptome and epigenome of p63 mutant keratinocytes derived from EEC patients. The transcriptome of p63 mutant keratinocytes deviated from the normal epidermal cell identity. Epigenomic analyses showed an altered enhancer landscape in p63 mutant keratinocytes contributed by loss of p63-bound active enhancers and by unexpected gain of enhancers. The gained enhancers were frequently bound by deregulated transcription factors such as RUNX1. Reversing RUNX1 overexpression partially rescued deregulated gene expression and the altered enhancer landscape. Our findings identify an unreported disease mechanism whereby mutant p63 rewires the enhancer landscape and affects epidermal cell identity, consolidating the pivotal role of p63 in controlling the enhancer landscape of epidermal keratinocytes.</p>

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is a regulatory mechanism that controls gene expression level and function through the usage of different transcription termination sites, but how APA is regulated to influence epidermal tissue differentiation remains under-characterized. Leveraging 3’READS+, we identified prevalent APA in keratinocytes. We further identified a high-confidence list of genes that alters their usages of polyadenylation site (PAS) during keratinocyte differentiation. To begin to understand the mechanisms that modulates PAS selection within a given gene, we identified that the expression of the Cleavage and Polyadenylation Specificity Factor (CPSF) complex is down regulated during keratinocyte differentiation. Suppression of CPSF using RNAi or CRISPRi strongly impaired epidermal regeneration with upregulation of terminal differentiation marker gene expression. Mechanistically, we identified that CPSF suppression decreased the usage of the GRHL3 proximal PAS and upregulated full-length GRHL3 mRNA production. Knockdown of GRHL3 in the context of CPSFi partially restored differentiation marker gene expression. We also found CPSF interacts with RNA-binding proteins to control PAS usage. Thus, our data suggest a model where CPSF binding preference and PAS choices regulate epidermal terminal differentiation.
