Recruitment of Rod Photoreceptors from Short Wavelength Sensitive Cones during the Evolution of Nocturnal Vision in Mammals

Project description:Vertebrate ancestors had only cone-like photoreceptors. The duplex retina evolved in jawless vertebrates with the advent of highly photosensitive rod-like photoreceptors. Despite cones being the arbiters of high-resolution color vision, rods emerged as the dominant photoreceptor in mammals during a nocturnal phase early in their evolution. We investigated the evolutionary and developmental origins of rods in two divergent vertebrate retinae. In mice, we discovered genetic and epigenetic vestiges of short wavelength cones in developing rods and cell lineage tracing validated the genesis of rods from S-cones. Curiously, rods did not derive from S-cones in zebrafish. Our study illuminates several questions regarding the evolution of duplex retina and supports the hypothesis that, in mammals, the S-cone lineage was recruited via the Maf-family transcription factor NRL to augment rod photoreceptors. We propose that this developmental mechanism allowed the adaptive exploitation of scotopic niches during the nocturnal bottleneck early in mammalian evolution.

ATAC-seq and RNA-seq of adult mouse rods and cones

Project description:Rod photoreceptors are specialized neurons that mediate vision in dim light and are the predominant photoreceptor type in nocturnal mammals. The rods of nocturnal mammals are unique among vertebrate cell types in having an 'inverted' nuclear architecture, with a single dense mass of heterochromatin in the center of the nucleus rather than dispersed clumps at the nuclear periphery. We hypothesized that this unique chromatin organization would correlate with a unique epigenomic landscape as defined by chromatin accessibility. To test this idea, we performed open chromatin profiling (ATAC-seq) on purified mouse rods and their most closely related cell type, cone photoreceptors, which revealed that thousands of loci are selectively closed in rods. Comparison with open-chromatin maps from >60 additional cell types and tissues demonstrated that rods have by far the most closed chromatin architecture. To explore how the unique epigenomic landscape of rods is controlled, we profiled photoreceptors purified from mice lacking the rod master regulator Nrl. We find that the open-chromatin profile of Nrl-/- photoreceptors is nearly indistinguishable from that of native cones, indicating that Nrl is necessary to achieve selective chromatin closure in rods. Finally, we identified distinct enrichments of transcription factor binding sites in rods and cones, suggesting specific mechanisms by which rods and cones encode cell type-specific information in regulatory DNA. Taken together, these data provide new insight into the development and maintenance of photoreceptor identity, and highlight rods as an attractive system for studying the relationship between nuclear organization and local changes in chromatin accessibility.

Samd7 preserves cell identity and enforces the ‘one neuron-one receptor’ rule in vertebrate photoreceptors

Project description:The exclusive expression of single sensory receptors in individual neurons (the ‘one-neuron-one receptor’ rule) is essential for vision and other sensory systems. Here, we show that the transcriptional corepressor Samd7 enforces this rule in vertebrate red cones and acts in other photoreceptor types to maintain cell identity. In the zebrafish samd7-/- retina, red cones are transformed to hybrid red/UV-sensitive cones, green cones are transfated to blue cones, and the number of rods is greatly reduced. In the mouse Samd7-/- retina, dorsal M-cones are transformed to hybrid M/S-cones—analogous to the transformation of red to red/UV cones that occurs in zebrafish—and rods aberrantly express cone genes including S-opsin. Altogether, Samd7 acts to repress short-wavelength cone gene expression in long-wavelength-sensitive cones, thereby sustaining the mutually exclusive patterns of opsin expression and cone identity required for color vision.
