Project description:Mutations that reduce the function of MYT1L, a neuron-specific transcription factor, are associated with a syndromic neurodevelopmental disorder. Furthermore, MYT1L is routinely used as a pro-neural factor in fibroblast-to-neuron transdifferentiation. MYT1L has been hypothesized to play a role in the trajectory of neuronal specification and subtype specific maturation, but this hypothesis has not been directly tested, nor is it clear which neuron types are most impacted by MYT1L loss. In this study, we profiled 412,132 nuclei from the forebrains of wild-type and MYT1L-deficient mice at three developmental stages: E14 at the peak of neurogenesis, P1 when neurons in the six cortical layers have been born, and P21 when neurogenesis is complete and neurons are maturing, to examine the role of MYT1L levels in the trajectory of neuronal development. We found that MYT1L deficiency significantly disrupted the relative proportions of cortical excitatory neurons. Changes in gene expression were concentrated in excitatory neurons, suggesting that transcriptional effects of MYT1L deficiency are largely due to disruption of neuronal maturation programs. Most effects on gene expression were cell autonomous and persistent through development. In addition, while MYT1L can both activate and repress gene expression, the repressive effects were most sensitive to haploinsufficiency, and thus more likely mediate MYT1L syndrome. These findings illuminate the intricate role of MYT1L in orchestrating gene expression dynamics during neuronal development, providing insights into the molecular underpinnings of MYT1L syndrome.

Project description:Mutations that reduce the function of MYT1L, a neuron-specific transcription factor, are associated with a syndromic neurodevelopmental disorder. Furthermore, MYT1L is routinely used as a proneural factor in fibroblast-to-neuron transdifferentiation. MYT1L has been hypothesized to play a role in the trajectory of neuronal specification and subtype specific maturation, but this hypothesis has not been directly tested, nor is it clear which neuron types are most impacted by MYT1L loss. In this study, we profiled 313,335 nuclei from the forebrains of wild-type and MYT1L-deficient mice at two developmental stages: E14 at the peak of neurogenesis and P21, when neurogenesis is complete, to examine the role of MYT1L levels in the trajectory of neuronal development. We found that MYT1L deficiency significantly disrupted the relative proportion of cortical excitatory neurons at E14 and P21. Significant changes in gene expression were largely concentrated in excitatory neurons, suggesting that transcriptional effects of MYT1L deficiency are largely due to disruption of neuronal maturation programs. Most effects on gene expression were cell autonomous and persistent through development. In addition, while MYT1L can both activate and repress gene expression, the repressive effects were most sensitive to haploinsufficiency, and thus more likely mediate MYT1L syndrome.

Project description:Normal differentiation and induced reprogramming require the activation of target cell programs and silencing of donor cell programs. In reprogramming, the same factors are often used to reprogram many different donor cell types. As most developmental repressors, such as RE1-silencing transcription factor (REST) and Groucho (also known as TLE), are considered lineage-specific repressors, it remains unclear how identical combinations of transcription factors can silence so many different donor programs. Distinct lineage repressors would have to be induced in different donor cell types. Here we found that the pan neuron-specific transcription factor Myt1-like (Myt1l) exerts its pro-neuronal function by direct repression of many different somatic lineage programs but not the neuronal program during reprogramming and neurogenesis and in primary mouse neurons. The repressive function of Myt1l is mediated by recruitment of a complex containing Sin3b by binding to a previously uncharacterized N-terminal domain. In agreement with its repressive function, the genomic binding sites of Myt1l are similar in neurons and fibroblasts and are preferentially in an open chromatin configuration. The Notch signalling pathway is repressed by Myt1l through silencing of several members, including Hes1. Acute knock-down of Myt1l in the developing mouse brain mimicked a Notch gain-of-function phenotype, suggesting that Myt1l allows newborn neurons to escape Notch activation during normal development. Depletion of Myt1l in primary postmitotic neurons de-repressed non-neuronal programs and impaired neuronal gene expression and function, indicating that many somatic lineage programs are actively and persistently repressed by Myt1l to maintain neuronal identity. It is now tempting to speculate that similar ‘many-but-one’ lineage repressors exist for other cell fates; such repressors, in combination with lineage-specific activators, would be prime candidates for use in reprogramming additional cell types.
