Project description:Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), which make up 8% of the human genome, have been proposed to participate in the control of gene regulatory networks. In this study, we find a region- and developmental stage-specific expression pattern of ERVs in the developing human brain, which is linked to a transcriptional network based on ERVs. We demonstrate that almost ten thousand, primarily primate-specific ERVs, act as docking platforms for the epigenetic co-repressor protein TRIM28 in human neural progenitor cells, which results in the establishment of local heterochromatin. Thereby, TRIM28 represses ERVs and consequently regulates the expression of neighboring genes. These results uncover a gene regulatory network based on ERVs that participates in control of gene expression of protein-coding transcripts important for brain development.

Project description:TRIM28 silences endogenous retroviruses in neural progenitor cells
| PRJNA196678 | ENA
Project description:Here we show that in neural progenitor cells (NPCs) TRIM28 silences transcription of two groups of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs): IAP1 and MMERVK10C. Derepression of ERVs in Trim28-deficient NPCs was associated with a loss of H3K9me3 and resulted in transcriptional upregulation and reverse transcription. These findings demonstrate a unique dynamic transcriptional regulation of ERVs in NPCs. Analysis of upregulation of ERVs in Trim28-deficient NPCs

Project description:Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) make up a large fraction of mammalian genome and are thought to contribute to human disease, including brain disorders. Aberrant activation of ERVs constitute a potential trigger for neuroinflammation, but mechanistic insight into this phenomenon remains unclear. Using CRISPR/Cas9-based gene disruption of the epigenetic co-repressor protein Trim28, we found a dynamic H3K9me3-dependent regulation of ERVs in proliferating neural progenitor cells (NPCs), but not in adult neurons. In vivo disruption of Trim28 in cortical NPCs during brain development resulted in viable offspring expressing high levels of ERVs in excitatory neurons in the adult brain of mice. Neuronal ERV expression was linked to inflammation, including activated microglia, and aggregates of ERV-derived proteins. This study demonstrates that brain development is a critical period for the silencing of ERVs and provides causal in vivo evidence demonstrating that transcriptional activation of ERV in neurons results in neuroinflammation.

Project description:Reverse transcription-derived sequences account for at least half of the human genome. Although these retroelements are formidable motors of evolution, they can occasionally cause disease, and accordingly are inactivated during early embryogenesis through epigenetic mechanisms. In the mouse, at least for endogenous retroviruses, important mediators of this process are the tetrapod-specific KRAB-containing zinc finger proteins (KRAB-ZFPs) and their cofactor TRIM28. The present study demonstrates that KRAB/TRIM28-mediated regulation is responsible for controlling a very broad range of human-specific endogenous retroelements (EREs) in human embryonic stem (ES) cells and that it exerts, as a consequence, a marked effect on the transcriptional dynamics of these cells. It further reveals reciprocal dependence between TRIM28 recruitment at specific families of EREs and DNA methylation. It finally points to the importance of persistent TRIM28-mediated control of ERE transcriptional impact beyond their presumed inactivation by DNA methylation.

Project description:Since the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells there has been intense interest in understanding the mechanisms that allow a somatic cell to be reprogrammed back to a pluripotent state. Several groups have studied the alterations in gene expression that occur as somatic cells modify their genome to that of an embryonic stem cell. Underpinning many of the gene expression changes are modifications to the epigenetic profile of the associated chromatin. We have used a large-scale shRNA screen to identify epigenetic modifiers that act as barriers to reprogramming. We have uncovered an important role for TRIM28 in cells resisting transition between somatic and pluripotent states. TRIM28 achieves this by maintaining the H3K9me3 repressed state and keeping endogenous retroviruses silenced. We propose that knockdown of TRIM28 during reprogramming results in more plastic H3K9me3 domains, dysregulation of genes nearby H3K9me3 marks, and up regulation of endogenous retroviruses, thus facilitating the transition through reprogramming.

Project description:Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) have rewired host gene networks. To explore the origins of co-option, we employed an active murine ERV, IAPEz, and an embryonic stem cell (ESC) to neural progenitor cell (NPC) differentiation model. Epigenetic silencing via TRIM28 maps to a 190bp sequence encoding the IAP signal peptide, which confers retrotransposition activity. A subset of ‘escapee’ IAPs (~15%) exhibit significant genetic divergence from this sequence. Canonical repressed IAPs succumb to a previously undocumented demarcation by H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 in NPCs. Escapee IAPs, in contrast, evade epigenetic repression in both cell types, resulting in their transcriptional derepression, particularly in NPCs. We validate the enhancer function of a 47bp sequence within the U3 region of the LTR and show that escapee IAPs convey an activating effect on nearby neural genes. In sum, co-opted ERVs stem from genetic escapees that have lost vital sequences required for both TRIM28 restriction and autonomous retrotransposition.

Project description:WTX encodes a tumor suppressor implicated in Wilms tumor and in mesenchymal differentiation, with distinct functions in the cytoplasm, at the plasma membrane and in the nucleus. Here we report that the transcriptional corepressor TRIM28 is the major binding partner for nuclear WTX. The WTX-TRIM28 interaction supports chromatin binding by TRIM28, enhancing transcriptional silencing of some TRIM28 target sequences. In mouse ES cells, where TRIM28-mediated silencing of repetitive sequences is best characterized, Wtx knockdown similarly derepresses endogenous retroviruses and LINE elements.

In mouse ES cells, where TRIM28-mediated silencing of repetitive sequences is best characterized, Wtx knockdown similarly derepresses endogenous retroviruses and LINE elements. We performed digital gene expression (DGE) profiling using Helicos RNA sequencing. Helicos sequencing does not involve an amplification step, hence it has less bias, especially in sequencing of repetitive elements. We sequenced RNA extracted from mouse ESCs harboring GFP, Wtx or Trim28 hairpins. The resulting sequence reads were aligned with the RefSeq database as well as Repbase, which is a database for the repetitive sequences.
