Project description:HOXB4 target genes in ES cell-derived embryoid bodies (EBs)
| PRJNA102549 | ENA
Project description:To unravel the molecular mechanism by which HOXB4 promotes the expansion of early hematopoietic progenitors within differentiating ES cells, we analzed the gene expression profiles of embryoid bodies (EBs) in which transcription of HOXB4 had been induced or not induced. A substantial number of the identified HOXB4 target genes are involved in signaling pathways important for controlling self-renewal, maintenance and differentiation of stem cells. Furthermore, we demonstrate that HOXB4 activity and FGF-signaling are intertwined. HOXB4-mediated expansion of ES cell-derived early progenitors was enhanced by specific and complete inhibition of FGF-receptors. In contrast, the expanding activity of HOXB4 on hematopoietic progenitors in day4-6 embryoid bodies was blunted in the presence of basic FGF (FGF2) indicating a dominant negative effect of FGF-signaling on the earliest hematopoietic cells. Taken together, we show that modulation of FGF signaling is an essential feature of HOXB4 activity in the context of embryonic hematopoiesis. Keywords: plus/minus induction of HOXB4 gene expression by treatment with doxycycline (Dox)

Experiment Overall Design: The Hoxb4i ES cell line (Kyba et al. 2002, Cell 109:29-37) contains an integrated âtet-onâ cassette that allows induction of HOXB4 expression upon treatment with doxycycline. These ES cells can be used to produce hematopoietic cells through the formation of embryoid bodies (EBs). Hematopoiesis starts in these EBs at day 4 and the differentiation into hematopoietic fates can be quantified by colony assays on methyl-cellulose using cells dissociated from EBs at day 6 of incubation. The induction of HOXB4 by incubation with doxycycline increases the production of hematopoietic progenitors within EBs by day 6. Using this specific ES cell line, we compared the transcriptome between embryoid bodies (EBs) in which transcription of HOXB4 had been induced or not induced from day 4 to day 6 (48hours).

Project description:Introgressed variants from other species can be an important source of genetic variation because they may arise rapidly, can include multiple mutations on a single haplotype, and have often been pretested by selection in the species of origin. Although introgressed alleles are generally deleterious, several studies have reported introgression as the source of adaptive alleles-including the rodenticide-resistant variant of Vkorc1 that introgressed from Mus spretus into European populations of Mus musculus domesticus. Here, we conducted bidirectional genome scans to characterize introgressed regions into one wild population of M. spretus from Spain and three wild populations of M. m. domesticus from France, Germany, and Iran. Despite the fact that these species show considerable intrinsic postzygotic reproductive isolation, introgression was observed in all individuals, including in the M. musculus reference genome (GRCm38). Mus spretus individuals had a greater proportion of introgression compared with M. m. domesticus, and within M. m. domesticus, the proportion of introgression decreased with geographic distance from the area of sympatry. Introgression was observed on all autosomes for both species, but not on the X-chromosome in M. m. domesticus, consistent with known X-linked hybrid sterility and inviability genes that have been mapped to the M. spretus X-chromosome. Tract lengths were generally short with a few outliers of up to 2.7 Mb. Interestingly, the longest introgressed tracts were in olfactory receptor regions, and introgressed tracts were significantly enriched for olfactory receptor genes in both species, suggesting that introgression may be a source of functional novelty even between species with high barriers to gene flow.
