MPP8 is essential for sustaining self-renewal of ground-state pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: Deciphering the mechanisms that control the pluripotent ground state is key for understanding embryonic development. Nonetheless, the epigenetic regulation of ground-state mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) is not fully understood. Here, we identify the epigenetic protein MPP8 as being essential for ground-state pluripotency. Its depletion leads to cell cycle arrest and spontaneous differentiation. MPP8 has been suggested to repress LINE1 elements by recruiting the human silencing hub (HUSH) complex to H3K9me3-rich regions. Unexpectedly, we find that LINE1 elements are efficiently repressed by MPP8 lacking the chromodomain, while the unannotated C-terminus is essential for its function. Moreover, we show that SETDB1 recruits MPP8 to its genomic target loci, whereas transcriptional repression of LINE1 elements is maintained without retaining H3K9me3 levels. Taken together our findings demonstrate that MPP8 protects the DNA-hypomethylated pluripotent ground state through its association with the HUSH core complex, however, independently of detectable chromatin binding and maintenance of H3K9me3.

ChIP-seq of Klf2 in mouse embryonic stem cells (Serum/LIF and 2i)

Project description:The self-renewing pluripotent state was first captured in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) over two decades ago. The standard condition requires the presence of serum and LIF, which provide growth promoting signals for cell expansion. However, there are pro-differentiation signals which destabilize the undifferentiated state of mESCs. The dual inhibition (2i) of the pro-differentiation Mek/Erk and Gsk3/Tcf3 pathways in mESCs is sufficient to establish an enhanced pluripotent “ground state” which bears features resembling the pre-implantation mouse epiblast. Gsk3 inhibition alleviates the repression of Esrrb, a transcription factor that can substitute for Nanog function in mESCs. The molecular mechanism that is mediated by Mek inhibition is however not clear. In this study, we investigate the pathway through which Mek inhibition operates to maintain ground state pluripotency. We have found that in mESCs, Kruppel-like factor 2 (Klf2) is a protein target of the Mek/Erk pathway; and that Klf2 protein is phosphorylated by Erk2 and subsequently degraded through the proteosome. It is therefore by Mek-inhibition through PD0325901 or 2i that enables the stabilization and accumulation of Klf2 to sustain ground state pluripotency. Importantly, we found that Klf2-null mESCs, while viable under LIF/Serum conditions, cannot be maintained and eventually gradually die within a few passages. Our result thus demonstrates that Klf2 is an essential factor of ground state pluripotency. Collectively, our study defines the Mek/Klf2 axis that cooperates with the Gsk3/Esrrb pathway in mediating ground state pluripotency.

Resetting Transcription Factor Control Circuitry Towards Ground State Pluripotency In Human

Project description:Current human pluripotent stem cells lack the transcription factor circuitry that governs the ground state of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC). Here we report that short-term expression of two components, NANOG and KLF2, is sufficient to ignite other elements of the network and reset the human pluripotent state. Inhibition of ERK and protein kinase C signalling sustains a transgene-independent rewired state. Reset cells self-renew continuously without ERK signalling, are phenotypically stable and karyotypically intact. They differentiate in vitro and form teratomas in vivo. Metabolism is reprogrammed in reset cells with activation of mitochondrial respiration as in ESC. DNA methylation is dramatically reduced and transcriptome state is globally realigned across multiple cell lines. Depletion of ground state transcription factors, TFCP2L1 or KLF4 has marginal impact on conventional human pluripotent stem cells, but collapses the reset state. These findings demonstrate feasibility of installing and propagating functional control circuitry for ground state pluripotency in human cells.

Two-factor authentication underpins the precision of piRNA-directed LINE1 DNA methylation

Project description:The PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA) pathway guides the DNA methylation of young active transposons during male mouse germline development. piRNAs tether the PIWI protein MIWI2 (PIWIL4) to the nascent transposon transcript that results in DNA methylation through SPOCD1. Transposon methylation requires exacting precision: all copies need to be methylated yet, at the same time, off-target methylation must be avoided. However, the underlying mechanisms that ensure this precision remain unknown. Here, we show that SPOCD1 directly interacts with SPIN1, a chromatin reader that primarily binds H3K4me3 and this association is augmented by H3K9me3. The prevailing assumption is that all molecular events required for piRNA-directed DNA methylation occur after the engagement of MIWI2. Interestingly, we find that SPIN1 expression precedes that of both SPOCD1 and MIWI2. Furthermore, we demonstrate that young LINE1s, but not old copies are marked by H3K4me3 and H3K9me3 prior to the initiation of piRNA-directed DNA methylation. We generated a Spocd1 separation-of-function allele in the mouse that encodes a SPOCD1 variant that no longer interacts with SPIN1. We found that the SPOCD1-SPIN1 interaction is essential for spermatogenesis and piRNA-directed DNA methylation of young LINE1 elements. We propose that young LINE1 elements require a two-factor authentication process for DNA methylation, the first being the recruitment of SPIN1-SPOCD1 to licence the locus and the second is MIWI2 engagement with the nascent transcript, which is the trigger for methylation. In summary, independent events that licence, and trigger methylation underpin the basis of precision.

Setdb1 is required for persistence of H3K9me3 and repression of endogenous retroviruses in mouse primordial germ cells

Project description:Transcription of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) is inhibited by de novo DNA methylation during gametogenesis, a process initiated after birth in oocytes and at ~E15.5 in prospermatogonia. Earlier in germline development however, the genome, including most retrotransposons, is progressively demethylated, with young ERVK and ERV1 elements retaining intermediate methylation levels. As DNA methylation reaches a low point in E13.5 primordial germ cells (PGCs) of both sexes, we determined whether retrotransposons are marked by H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 using a recently developed low input ChIP-seq method. Although these repressive histone modifications are predominantly found on distinct genomic regions in E13.5 PGCs, they concurrently mark partially methylated LTRs and LINE1 elements. Germline-specific conditional knock-out (KO) of the H3K9 methyltransferase SETDB1 yields a decrease of both histone marks and DNA methylation at H3K9me3 enriched retrotransposon families. Strikingly, Setdb1-KO E13.5 PGCs show concomitant de-repression of many marked ERVs, including IAP, ETn and ERVK10C elements and ERV-proximal genes, a subset in a sex-dependent manner. Furthermore, Setdb1 deficiency is associated with a reduced number of male PGCs and postnatal hypogonadism in both sexes. Taken together, these observations reveal that SETDB1 is an essential guardian against proviral expression prior to the onset of de novo DNA methylation in the germline.

ChIP-Seq data for histone marks in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

Project description:The conversion of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) by forced expression of Oct4, Sox2 and Klf4 is among the earliest demonstrations of reprogramming to a pluripotent state by forced expression of transcription factors. To gain insights into the chromatin state of genes required for reprogramming, we profiled H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H3K9me3. DNA was enriched by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and analyzed by Solexa sequencing. ChIP was performed using an antibody against H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H3K9me3.

Deconstructing the dynamic transcriptional program of pluripotent stem cells.

Project description:Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) are capable of dynamic interconversion between distinct substates, but the regulatory circuits specifying these states and enabling transitions between them are not well understood. We set out to address this issue and map the landscape of gene expression variability in PSCs by single-cell expression profiling of PSCs under different chemical and genetic perturbations. We find that signaling factors and developmental regulators show highly variable expression in PSCs, with expression states for some variable genes heritable through multiple cell divisions. Expression variability and population heterogeneity can be influenced by perturbation of signaling pathways and chromatin regulators. Strikingly, either removal of mature miRNAs or pharmacologic blockage of external signaling pathways drives PSCs into a low-noise ground state characterized by a reconfigured pluripotency regulatory network, increased self-renewal efficiency, and a distinct chromatin state, an effect mediated by the action of opposing miRNA families on the c-myc / Lin28 / let-7 axis. These findings illuminate the causes of transcriptional heterogeneity in PSCs and their consequences for cellular decision-making. Single-cell RNA-Seq on 183 individual v6.5 mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) cultured in serum+LIF media, 94 v6.5 mESCs cultured in 2i+LIF media ('ground state' conditions), and 84 Dgcr8 -/- mESCs (constructed in a v6.5 background), that lack mature miRNAs due to knockout of a miRNA processing factor, cultured in serum+LIF.

RNA sequencing of conventional and reset human pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Human pluripotent cells were reset to ground state pluripotency by transient overexpression of NANOG and KLF2 and subsequent inhibition of ERK and protein kinase C. Transcriptional profiling of reset cells and conventional pluripotent stem cell cultures was carried out by RNA-seq, in tandem with mouse embryonic stem cells propagated under similar conditions to assess the combinatorial effects of MEK inhibitor PD0325901, GSK3 inhibitor CHIR99021 and PKC inhibitor Go6983.

Systematic Identification of Defined Conditions for Induction and Maintenance of Naive Human Pluripotency [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) of mice and humans have distinct molecular and biological characteristics, raising the question whether an earlier ‘naive’ state of pluripotency may exist in humans. Here we took a systematic approach to identify small molecules that support autonomous self-renewal of naive human ESCs based on maintenance of endogenous OCT4 distal enhancer activity, a molecular signature of ground state pluripotency. Iterative chemical screening identified a combination of five kinase inhibitors that induces and maintains OCT4 distal enhancer activity when applied directly to conventional human ESCs. These inhibitors generate a homogeneous population of human pluripotent stem cells in which transcription factors associated with the ground state of pluripotency are highly upregulated. Comparison with previously reported naive human ESCs indicates that our kinase inhibitor cocktail captures a novel pluripotent state in humans that closely resembles mouse ESCs. ChIP-seq data from human embryonic stem cells in naive and primed conditions were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hi-Seq 2000.
