Project description:YY1 regulates DNA-DNA interaction
| PRJNA526477 | ENA
Project description:The DNA Guanine quadruplexes (G4) plays important roles in multiple cellular processes, including regulation of DNA replication, transcription and genome stability. Here, we show that Yin Yang-1 (YY1), a ubiquitously expressed and multifunctional transcription factor, can bind with G4 structures directly. Fluorescence anisotropy experiments shows that YY1 binds towards G4 structures with Kd in low nanomolar range (<100 nM) through the C terminal zinc finger domains. ChIP-seq results show that 81% of the YY1 ChIP-seq peaks contain G4 forming sequences, which is highly overlapped with the G4 ChIP-seq peaks. YY1 facilitate the DNA-DNA interaction through its binding with G4 structures in vivo and in vitro, which can be disturbed by G4 stabilizer treatment. In all, our studies identify a novel G4 structure binding protein-YY1, and reveal that G4 structure functions in DNA-DNA interaction.

Project description:YY1 is a ubiquitously expressed, intrinsically disordered transcription factor involved in neural development. The oligomeric state of YY1 varies depending on the environment. These changes may alter its DNA binding ability and hence its transcriptional activity. In addition to its oligomeric state, the interaction of YY1 with proteins such as FOXP2 can impact its role in transcription. The aim of this work is to study the structure and dynamics of YY1 binding to DNA and to determine the influence of oligomerisation and associations with FOXP2 on its DNA binding mechanism. Size exclusion chromatography, fluorescence anisotropy and electrophoretic mobility shift assays were used to study YY1 oligomerisation and interaction with FOXP2. To better understand potential structural changes to YY1 upon DNA binding, hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry was used. The results indicate that YY1 consists of specific structured regions, while most of the sequence remains disordered. Furthermore, the oligomeric nature of the protein is dependent on ionic strength. DNA affects oligomerisation and the protein undergoes changes in structure and dynamics upon DNA binding. YY1 and FOXP2 were found to interact with each other both in isolation and in the presence of YY1-specific DNA. The heterogeneous, dynamic multimerisation of YY1 identified in this work is, therefore, likely to be important for its ability to make heterologous associations with other proteins such as FOXP2. The interactions that YY1 forms with itself, FOXP2 and DNA form part of an intricate mechanism of transcriptional regulation by YY1, which is vital for appropriate neural development.

Project description:We systematically analyzed the alterations in mRNA transcriptome evoked by knockdown of YY1 with or without pyridostatin (PDS) treatment. Statistical analysis showed a strong correlation between PDS-regulated and YY1-regulated genes (Pearson r > 0.67), underscoring the role of YY1-G4 structure interaction in YY1-mediated gene regulation. Moreover, the RNA-Seq results revealed that YY1 can positively or negatively regulate the expression of genes through its interaction with G4 structures.

Project description:Rationale: Cardiogenesis is regulated by a complex interplay between transcription factors and chromatin-modifying enzymes. However, little is known about how these interactions regulate the transition from mesodermal precursors to cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Objective: To identify novel regulators of mesodermal cardiac lineage commitment. Methods and Results: We performed a bioinformatic-based transcription factor-binding site analysis on upstream promoter regions of genes that are enriched in ES cell-derived CPCs. From 32 candidate transcription factors screened, we found that YY1, a repressor of sarcomeric gene expression, is present in CPCs in vivo. Interestingly, we uncovered the ability of YY1 to transcriptionally activate Nkx2.5, a key marker of early cardiogenic commitment. YY1 regulates Nkx2.5 expression via a 2.1 kb cardiac-specific enhancer as demonstrated by in vitro luciferase-based assays and in vivo chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and genome-wide sequencing analysis. Furthermore, the ability of YY1 to activate Nkx2.5 expression depends on its cooperative interaction with GATA4 at a nearby chromatin. Cardiac mesoderm-specific loss-of-function of YY1 resulted in early embryonic lethality. This was corroborated in vitro by ES cell-based assays where we show that the over-expression of YY1 enhanced the cardiogenic differentiation ES cells into CPCs in a cell autonomous manner. Conclusion: These results demonstrate an essential and unexpected role for YY1 to promote cardiogenesis as a transcriptional activator of Nkx2.5 and other CPC-enriched genes. We report the identification of putative YY1 target genes in cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Two samples of independently FACS-purified eGFP+ CPCs were examined against the input.

Project description:Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a methyltransferase to mediate lysine 27 trimethylation in histone H3 (i.e., H3K27me3) and repress gene expression. In solid tumors, EZH2 promotes oncogenesis, and is considered a therapeutic target. As a transcription factor, Yin Yang 1 (YY1) recruits EZH2 through its oncoprotein binding (OPB) domain to establish gene repression. In this study, we mapped the YY1 protein binding (YPB) domain on EZH2 to a region of 27 amino acids. Both YPB and OPB domain synthetic peptides could disrupt YY1-EZH2 interaction, markedly reduce breast cancer cell viability, and efficiently inhibit tumor growth in a xenograft mouse model. We analyzed MDA-MB-231 cells treated with YPB, OPB and control peptides by chromatin immunoprecipitation DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) using an antibody against H3K27me3. YPB and OPB treatments altered H3K27me3 on 465 and 1,137 genes, respectively, compared to the control. Of these genes, 145 overlapped between the two peptides. Among them, PTENP1, the PTEN pseudogene, showed reduced H3K27me3 signal when treated by either YPB or OPB peptide. Consistently, the two peptides enhanced both PTENP1 and PTEN expression with concomitantly reduced AKT activation. Further studies validated PTENP1’s contribution to the anticancer activity of YPB and OPB peptides.

Project description:Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important mechanism of metastasis and malignant progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the transcriptional regulation mechanism of EMT remains poorly understood. Some transcriptional co-activators can form phase-separated condensates at super-enhancers that compartmentalize and concentrate the transcription apparatus to drive robust gene expression. Here, we demonstrate that Twist1 and YY1, interact with p300 and form phase-separated local high-concentration interaction hubs at super-enhancers of miRNA-9 and activate its expression to induce EMT and promote the malignant evolution of HCC. Phase separation disrupted by metformin perturbs Twist–YY1 condensates, thereby inhibiting EMT. To explore how the Twist1 complex regulates miR-9 expression by binding SE region, we performed Twist1 ChIP-seq combined with H3K4me3, H3K4me1, H3K27ac, DNAse, p300, and YY1 ChIP-seq data to detect the SEs of miR-9. After metformin treatment, the peak of Twist1/YY1 on miR-9 SE decreased. Metformin specifically affects the binding of Twist1/YY1 to the miR-9 SE region. 1,6-hexanediol, as an aliphatic alcohol, can weaken hydrophobic interactions and inhibit liquid–liquid phase separation by disrupting hydrophobic interactions. In order to prove Twist1/YY1 interaction at these sites requires phase separation, we detect the accessibility of miR-9 SE regions in 1,6-hexanediol-treated cells. The result showed a general decrease in the accessibility of miR-9 super-enhancer regions in 1,6-hexanediol-treated cells and Twist1 / YY1 combines the SE region of miR-9 in the form of phase separation.

Project description:Activation of splenic B cells induces formation of a 220kb DNA loop between Em and 3â??RR enhancers in the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus (IgH). This DNA loop has been proposed to be necessary for the crucial immune diversification mechanism of IgH class switch recombination, but the factors that control its formation are unknown. We show that conditional deletion of transcription factor YY1 in primary splenic B cells results in a dramatic drop in formation of this DNA loop, as well as immunoglobulin class switch recombination. Reconstitution of YY1-deleted splenic B cells with various YY1 mutants showed that the C-terminal half of YY1 lacking the transactivation domain restored both Em-3â??RR DNA loop formation as well as class switch recombination. RNA transcript analyses of YY1 conditional deleted splenic B cells suggest that YY1 does not regulate genes needed for DNA looping or CSR. Our results argue for a direct physical mechanism of YY1 mediating long-distance DNA loops and provide strong evidence of the importance of this DNA loop for class switching. Our results provide foundational mechanistic insight into a crucial immune function. Follicular B cells were isolated from the spleens of three C57Bl/6 yy1 fl/fl mice. For each spleen, half the cells received mock treatment and half received TATCRE. The 6 samples were then grown in RPMI medium along with LPS, Il4, OPI, and 20% FBS for 72 hours. The 6 groups of cells were lysed and RNA was isolated for library preparation. Expression differences between Mock and TATCRE treated cells were determined to understand the role of yy1 in B cell class switching.
