Project description:To decipher the structure and behaviors of the transcription factor (TF) network, we created 50 permanent mouse ES cell lines, in each of which one of the 50 transcription factors tagged with FLAG, is inserted into the doxycycline (dox)-repressible ROSA26 locus. We have obtained time series data for 10 of the transcripts at 24h,48h and 72hr. Expression profiling reveals Cdx2 as the most potent inducer of transcriptome perturbation in ES cells, followed by Esx1, Sox9, Tcf3, Klf4, and Gata3. Immunoprecipitation (IP) with a FLAG-antibody in Cdx2-induced ES cells, identifies NuRD in CDX2-associated protein complexes; and chromatin-IP-sequencing identifies CDX2-binding sites predominantly in genes up-regulated by CDX2. Compendium analyses of Cdx2- and the other TF-inducible ES cells suggest a central role of the POU5F1/SOX2/NANOG protein complex in a swift-acting control mechanism to down-regulate a common set of genes at the beginning of multi-lineage ES cell differentiations. These ES cell lines will be a valuable resource to study biological networks in ES cells and mice.

Project description:Sharing common ErbB/HER receptor signaling pathway, heregulin (HRG) induces differentiation of MCF-7 breast cancer cells while epidermal growth factor (EGF) elicits proliferation. Although the cell fate led by those two ligands was totally different, the gene expression profile in early transcription was unexpectedly qualitatively similar, suggesting that the gene expression in late transcription, not early transcription, may reflect a respect of ligand specificity. In this study, based on the data from time-course microarray of all human genes, we predicted and determined a series of transcription factors which may control HRG-specific timed-late transcription and cellular differentiation of MCF-7 cells. Validation analyses showed that one of activator protein 1 (AP-1) families appeared just after c-Fos expression, another AP-1 family partner, induced expression of another transcription factor through activation of AP-1 complex. Furthermore, expression of this transcription factors caused suppression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation which is sustainedly regulated by HRG-initiated ErbB signaling. Overall, our analysis indicated an importance of formation of timed-transcriptional regulatory network and its function to control upstream signaling pathway through negative feedback for cellular differentiation.
