Site-specific transcription factors (TFs) play an essential role in mammalian development and function as they are vital for the majority of cellular processes. Despite their biological importance, TF proteomic data is scarce in the literature, likely due to difficulties in detecting peptides as the abundance of TFs in cells tends to be low. In recent years, significant improvements in MS-based technologies in terms of sensitivity and specificity have increased the interest in developing quantit ...[more]

Project description:Multiple gene expression studies have demonstrated that breast cancer biological diversity is associated with distinct transcriptional programs. Transcription factors, because of their unique ability to coordinate the expression of multiple genes, are speculated to play a role in generating phenotypic plasticity associated with cancer progression including acquired drug resistance. Combinatorial libraries of artificial zinc-finger transcription factors (ZF-TFs) provide a robust means for inducing and understanding various functional components of the cancer phenotype. Herein, we utilized combinatorial ZF-TF library technology to better understand how breast cancer cells acquire resistance to a fulvestrant, a clinically important anti-endocrine therapeutic agent. We isolated six ZF-TF library members capable of inducing stable, long-term anti-endocrine drug-resistance in two independent estrogen receptor positive breast cancer cell lines. Comparative gene expression profile analysis of the ZF-TF-transduced breast cancer cell lines revealed a 72-gene cluster that constituted a common signature for the fulvestrant-resistance phenotype. Pathway enrichment-analysis of gene expression data revealed that the ZF-TF-induced fulvestrant resistance is associated with an estrogen receptor negative-like gene set and four unique myb-regulated gene sets. Furthermore, we identified a set of genes strongly expressed in the ZF-TF-induced fulvestrant-resistant cells that was correlated with a lower probability of distant metastasis-free or death-from-relapse-free survival of breast cancer patients. MCF7-R73 cells, a monoclonal MCF7 subline that is highly sensitive to fulvestrant-induced cytocidal activity, underwent retroviral transduction with the zinc finger transcription factor (ZF-TF) activator library or with a control plasmid encoding only the NF-kB p65 activation domain. Both populations of cells were enriched for transduced cells by selecting for growth in puromycin and for fulvestrant-resistant cells by selecting with 100 nM fulvestrant. After 6 weeks of continuous treatment with fulvestrant, hundreds of drug-resistant colonies emerged from the population of cells infected with the ZF-TF activator library. By contrast, as expected, the control MCF7cell line transduced by NF-kB p65-only underwent massive cell death resulting in the complete absence of resistant colonies. DNA encoding the zinc-finger arrays was rescued by PCR from genomic DNA of pooled fulvestrant-resistant cells. The sequences of the ZF-TFs were determined and 46 unique ZF-TF clones identified. These 46 unique ZF-TFs were re-cloned into the retroviral vector and converted into clonal virus stocks that were used to transduce MCF7-R73 cells. These 46 retrovirally transduced cell populations were then challenged with fulvestrant. As compared with the control MCF-238 cells, MCF7-R73 cells transduced with six unique ZF-TFs demonstrated survival and growth in the presence of 100nM fulvestrant.

Project description:Binding of transcription factors (TFs) to regulatory sequences is a pivotal step in the control of gene expression. Despite many advances in the characterization of sequence motifs recognized by TFs, our ability to quantitatively predict TF binding to different regulatory sequences is still limited. Here, we present a novel experimental assay termed BunDLE-seq that provides quantitative measurements of TF binding to thousands of fully designed sequences of 200 bp in length within a single experiment. Applying this binding assay to two yeast TFs we demonstrate that sequences outside the core TF binding site profoundly affect TF binding. We show that TF-specific models based on the sequence or DNA shape of the regions flanking the core binding site are highly predictive of the measured differential TF binding. We further characterize the dependence of TF binding, accounting for measurements of single and co-occurring binding events, on the number and location of binding sites and on the TF concentration. Finally, by coupling our in vitro TF binding measurements, and another application of our method probing nucleosome formation, to in vivo expression measurements carried out with the same template sequences now serving and promoters, we offer insights into mechanisms that may determine the different expression outcomes observed. Our assay thus paves the way to a more comprehensive understanding of TF binding to regulatory sequences, and allows the characterization of TF binding determinants within and outside of core binding sites. Binding experiments were carried out with one of two input libraries; Lib1 (also referred to as “main lib”) includes designed sequence variants of length 150bp, and Lib2 (also referred to as “constant flanks lib”) includes designed sequence variants of length 200bp. The sequences of the variants of interest can be found in the second column of the processed data file (BunDLE-seq_data, see 3 excel sheets). EXP1, EXP2 and EXP3 were carried out using Lib1, and EXP4 was carried out using Lib2. Binding experiments were carried out with different proteins (in different concentrations) – DNA was extracted from bound bands that were formed on the gel and amplified with a primer with a unique 5bp upstream tail specifying the identity of the originating band (also referred to as “band barcode”). Data from the following bands was used in the analysis: EXP1_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “AACGA”, EXP1_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:8) bound band* – with band barcode “TCGTA” , EXP1_band3, histones bound band – with band barcode “AGATA”, EXP2_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “AACGA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:8) bound band* – with band barcode “AGATA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:7) bound band – with band barcode “CACTT”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:6) bound band – with band barcode “TCGTA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:5) bound band – with band barcode “CATCA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:4) bound band – with band barcode “TATTA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:3) bound band – with band barcode “AGTCA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:2) bound band – with band barcode “ACGAA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:1) bound band – with band barcode “ACAGA”, EXP2_band2, two Gcn4 (conc 1:1) bound band – barcoded with “GTAGA”, EXP3_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “GCATA”, EXP3_band2, single Gal4 (conc 1:1) bound band – with band barcode “GATGT”, EXP3_band3, single Gal4 (conc 3:1) bound band – with band barcode “GTTCA”, EXP3_band4, two Gal4 (conc 3:1) bound band – with band barcode “CTCAA”, EXP4_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “GAGTA”, EXP4_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:3) bound band – “TACCA”, EXP4_band3, no-protein band – with band barcode “TCGTT”, EXP4_band3, single Gal4 (conc 3:1) bound band – with band barcode “ACATC”, *biological replicates

Project description:The predominant view of pluripotency regulation proposes a stable ground state with coordinated expression of key transcription factors (TFs) that prohibit differentiation. Another perspective suggests a more complexly regulated state involving competition between multiple lineage-specifying TFs that define pluripotency. These contrasting views were developed from extensive analyses of TFs in pluripotent cells in vitro. An experimentally-validated, genome-wide repertoire of the regulatory interactions that control pluripotency within the in vivo cellular contexts is yet to be developed. To address this limitation, we assembled a TF interactome of adult human male germ cell tumors (GCTs) using the Algorithm for the Accurate Reconstruction of Cellular Pathways (ARACNe) to analyze gene expression profiles of 141 tumors comprising pluripotent and differentiated subsets. The network (GCTNet) comprised 1305 TFs, and its Ingenuity Pathway analysis identified pluripotency and embryonal development as the top functional pathways. We experimentally validated GCTNet by functional (silencing) and biochemical (ChIP-seq) analysis of the core pluripotency regulatory TFs POU5F1, NANOG, and SOX2 in relation to their targets predicted by ARACNe. To define the extent of the in vivo pluripotency network in this system, we ranked all TFs in the GCTNet according to sharing of ARACNe-predicted targets with those of POU5F1 and NANOG using an Odds-Ratio analysis method. To validate this network, we silenced the top 10 TFs in the network in H9 ES cells. Silencing of each led to downregulation of pluripotency and induction of lineage; 7 of the 10 TFs were identified as pluripotency regulators for the first time.

Project description:The germ cell lineage ensures the continuity of life through the generation of male and female gametes, which unite to form a totipotent zygote. We have established a culture system that recapitulates the mouse germ-cell specification pathway: Using cytokines, embryonic stem cells (ESCs)/induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are induced into epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) and then into primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs) with capacity both for spermatogenesis and oogenesis, creating an opportunity for understanding and regulating mammalian germ cell development in both sexes in vitro. Here we show that, without cytokines, simultaneous over-expression of three transcription factors (TFs), Blimp1 (also known as Prdm1), Prdm14 and Tfap2c (also known as AP2γ), directs EpiLCs, but not ESCs, swiftly and highly efficiently into a PGC state with endogenous transcription circuitry. The induction of the PGC state on EpiLCs minimally requires Prdm14 but not Blimp1 or Tfap2c. The TF-induced PGC state reconstitutes key transcriptome and epigenetic reprogramming in PGCs, but bypasses a mesodermal program that accompanies PGC specification in vivo and in vitro by cytokines including BMP4. Importantly, the TF-induced PGC-like cells robustly contribute to spermatogenesis and fertile offspring. Our findings provide not only a novel insight into the transcriptional logic that creates a germ cell state, but also a foundation for the TF-based reconstitution and regulation of mammalian gametogenesis. Aim of this analysis is characterization of transcription factor-induced primordial germ cells (TF-PGCLCs) compared with cytokine-induced primordial germ cells (Ck-PGCLCs) (Hayashi et al., 2011, Cell), epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) (Hayashi et al., 2011, Cell), and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and identification of genes differentially expressed among them. TF-PGCLCs induced by multiple combinations of TFs (Blimp1 (B), Prdm14 (P14), and Tfap2c (A) (BP14A), BP14, P14A, P14) on day 2 and 4 (for BP14A cells) of the induction were also compared. Parental clone without exogenous TFs cultured with doxycycline, are also included as a negative control. Ck-PGCLCs day 2 and day 4 samples, which are previously unreported, EpiLCs and ESCs used in this study were also included. Overexpression of exogenous three TFs in ESCs yields stella-ECFP (SC) positive cells, which were sorted and included in the analysis. cDNA samples, prepared from approximately 20,000 cells, were amplified with a quantitative global PCR method (Kurimoto et al., 2006, Nucleic Acids Research). Two biological duplicates for each cell type were analyzed. Samples from GSE30056 were also included and reanalysed (GSM1070855-GSM1070864).

Project description:The bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) protein Brd4 is a validated drug target in leukemia, yet its regulatory function in this disease is not well understood. Here, we show that Brd4 chromatin occupancy in acute myeloid leukemia closely correlates with the hematopoietic transcription factors (TFs) Pu.1, Fli1, Erg, C/EBPα, C/EBPβ, and Myb at nucleosome-depleted enhancer and promoter regions. We provide evidence that these TFs, in conjunction with the lysine acetyltransferase activity of p300/CBP, facilitate Brd4 recruitment to their occupied sites to promote transcriptional activation. Moreover, chemical inhibition of BET bromodomains is found to suppress the functional output each hematopoietic TF, thereby interfering with essential lineage-specific transcriptional circuits in this disease. These findings reveal a chromatin-based signaling cascade comprised of hematopoietic TFs, p300/CBP, and Brd4, which supports leukemia maintenance and is suppressed by BET bromodomain inhibition.

Project description:Th17 cells have critical roles in mucosal defense and are major contributors to inflammatory disease. Their differentiation requires the nuclear hormone receptor RORγt working with multiple other essential transcription factors (TFs). We have used an iterative systems approach, combining genome-wide TF occupancy, expression profiling of TF mutants, and expression time series to delineate the Th17 global transcriptional regulatory network. We find that cooperatively-bound BATF and IRF4 contribute to initial chromatin accessibility, and with STAT3 initiate a transcriptional program that is then globally tuned by the lineage-specifying TF RORγt, which plays a focal deterministic role at key loci. Integration of multiple datasets allowed inference of an accurate predictive model that we computationally and experimentally validated, identifying multiple new Th17 regulators, including Fosl2, a key determinant of cellular plasticity. This interconnected network can be used to investigate new therapeutic approaches to manipulate Th17 functions in the setting of inflammatory disease. 143 RNA-seq, 83 ChIP-seq, 65 ChIP-seq controls, and 16 FAIRE-seq

Project description:Although transcription factor(TF)s regulate differentiation-related processes, including dedifferentiation and direct conversion, functional interactions between TFs regulating these processes are not well understood. Here we show that TFs preventing dedifferentiation are able to induce direct conversion. Using a neural lineage cell line and a large number of TFs expressed in it, we found a subset of TFs whose overexpression strongly interfered with dedifferentiation triggered by a procedure to induce induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), through a maintenance mechanism of the cell-type-specific transcriptional profile. Strikingly, the maintenance activity of the interfering TF set was strong enough to induce the cell line-specific transcriptional profile when overexpressed in a heterologous cell type. In addition, TFs that interfered with dedifferentiation in hepatic lineage cells involved known TFs with induction activity for hepatic lineage cells. Our results suggest that dedifferentiation suppresses a cell-type-specific transcriptional profile, which is primarily maintained by a small subset of TFs capable of inducing direct conversion. We anticipate that this functional correlation might be applicable in various cell types, which may include cancer cells, and might facilitate identification of TFs with induction activity to understand differentiation and tumorigenesis Examination of binding of 3 transcription factors and histone modifications in Neural progenitor like cells.

Project description:Developmental fate decisions are dictated by master transcription factors (TFs) that interact with cis-regulatory elements to direct transcriptional programs. Certain malignant tumors may also depend on a cellular hierarchy reminiscent of normal development but superimposed on underlying genetic aberrations. In glioblastoma (GBM), a subset of stem-like tumor- propagating cells (TPCs) appears to drive tumor progression and underlie therapeutic resistance, yet remain poorly understood. Here, we identify a core set of neurodevelopmental TFs (POU3F2, SOX2, SALL2, OLIG2) essential for GBM propagation. These TFs coordinately bind and activate TPC-specific regulatory elements, and are sufficient to fully reprogram differentiated GBM cells to ‘induced’ TPCs that recapitulate the epigenetic landscape and phenotype of native TPCs. We reconstruct a TF network model that highlights critical interactions and identifies novel therapeutic targets for eliminating TPCs. Our study establishes the epigenetic basis of a developmental hierarchy in a devastating malignancy, provides detailed insight into the underlying gene regulatory programs, and suggests attendant therapeutic strategies.

Project description:Bone marrow derived stromal cells (BMSCs) are a multipotent population that supports angiogenesis, wound healing, immunomodulation and plays an active role in the hematopoietic niche. On the other hand, they are also involved in the nurturing of bone marrow tumors and metastasis, showing a pro-tumorigenic behavior. BMSCs secrete a wide range of cytokines, growth factors and matrix proteins that are likely responsible for many of these effects. However, it is not clear whether this pro-tumorigenic behavior of BMSCs is induced by the tumor cells, neither in what extent the tumor cells affect the type and quantity of factors produced by BMSCs. To determine how tumor cells that arise from bone marrow affect the BMSCs, we selected three myeloid leukemia cell lines (TF-1, TF-1alpha and K562) and co-cultured them with BMSCs from healthy donors. We found that, under co-culture condition, the gene expression profiling of BMSCs revealed up-regulation of many pro-inflammatory signaling related genes, mainly IL-17 signaling-related genes. Moreover, IL-17 signaling-related cytokines CCL2 and IL8, were increased in co-culture supernatants. We conclude that BMSCs react to the presence of leukemia cells undergoing changes in the cytokine and chemokine secretion profile. Thus, BMSCs and leukemia cells both contribute to the creation of a competitive niche more favorable to leukemia stem cells. BMSCs from healthy donors were transwell co-cultured with three different myeloid leukemia cell lines: TF-1 (n=3), TF-1alpha (n=3) and K562 (n=3). A 1-um Transwell system (BDBiosciences, San Jose, CA USA) was used to maintain the cultured BMSC and leukemia cell populations separate from each other. As a control BMSCs were also transwell co-cultured under the same conditions with CD34+ cells (n=9) isolated from G-CSF-mobilized peripheral blood stem cells from healthy donors. An alternative co-culture method was used to analyze BMSCs and leukemia cells in direct contact: TF-1 (n=3), TF-alpha (n=3) and K562 (n=3). The two populations were cultured together in the same well without any membrane separation. BMSCs (n=18), TF-1 (n=3), TF-1alpha (n=3), K562 (n=3) and CD34+ (n=9) cells cultured alone (mono-cultures) were used as controls. Cells from both mono- and co-culture conditions were harvested at 4h, 10h, and 24h.

Project description:DNA-binding transcription factors (TFs) have been challenging to target with molecular probes. Many TFs function in part through interaction with Mediator; we sought to block p53 function by disrupting the p53-Mediator interaction. Through rational design and activity-based screening, we characterized a stapled peptide, with functional mimics of both p53 activation domains, that selectively disrupted p53- and Mediator-dependent transcription in vitro. This “bivalent peptide” also suppressed p53 transcriptional response in human cancer cells. Our strategy circumvents the TF and instead targets the TF-Mediator interface, with desired transcriptional outcomes. Different TFs target Mediator through different subunits, suggesting this strategy could be generalizable.
