Project description:In the developing subpallium, the fate decision between neurons and glia is driven by expression of Dlx1/2 or Olig1/2 respectively, two sets of transcription factors (TFs) with a mutually repressive relationship. The mechanism by which Dlx1/2 repress progenitor and oligodendrocyte fate, while promoting transcription of genes needed for differentiation, is not fully understood. We identified a motif within DLX1 that binds RBBP4, a NuRD complex subunit. ChIP-seq studies of genomic occupancy of DLX1 and six different members of the NuRD complex show that DLX1 and NuRD colocalize to putative regulatory elements (pREs) enriched near other transcription factor genes. Loss of Dlx1/2 leads to dysregulation of genome accessibility at pREs near genes repressed by Dlx1/2, including Olig2. Consequently, heterozygosity of Dlx1/2 and Rbbp4 leads to an increase in the production of OLIG2+ cells. These findings highlight the importance of the interplay between TFs and chromatin remodelers in regulating cell fate decisions.

Project description:Precise control of gene expression plays fundamental roles in brain development, but the roles of chromatin regulators in neuronal connectivity have remained poorly understood. Here, we find that depletion of the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylation (NuRD) complex in the cerebellar cortex by in vivo RNAi in rats and conditional knockout of the core NuRD subunit Chd4 in mice profoundly impairs the establishment of granule neuron parallel fiber/Purkinje cell synapses. In RNA-Seq analyses of Chd4 conditional knockout mice, we identify a set of nearly 200 genes that are repressed by the NuRD complex in the cerebellum in vivo. Genome-wide ChIP-Seq analyses reveal that the NuRD complex selectively decommissions the promoters of NuRD-repressed genes in the cerebellum in vivo by inducing the deacetylation of histone H3K9/14 and H3K27 and demethylation of H3K4 at these genes. Importantly, temporal control of promoter decommissioning and repression of NuRD target genes upon maturation of the cerebellum requires the NuRD complex. Finally, in a targeted in vivo RNAi screen of NuRD-repressed target genes, we identify the transcription factor Nhlh1, the RNA-binding protein Elavl2, and the presynaptic regulator Cplx3 as negative regulators of presynaptic differentiation in the cerebellar cortex. Together, these findings define NuRD-dependent promoter decommissioning as a developmentally regulated programming mechanism that releases the brake on presynaptic differentiation and thereby drives synaptic connectivity in the mammalian brain. Three distinct histone modifications using postnatal day 6 or day 22 cerebella from wild type (WT) or Chd4 conditional knockout (cKO) mice were examined in duplicate using libraries prepared with the Illumina ChIP-Seq DNA Sample Prep Kit and sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform.

Project description:NuRD-mediated gene repression in mouse embryonic stem cells
| PRJEB2930 | ENA
Project description:To obtain a global view of NuRD-mediated transcriptional regulation, gene expression profiles of wild-type and Mbd3-null ES cells were compared by microarray analysis. In the absence of Mbd3, which encodes a core structural component of NuRD, the complex does not form and embryonic development stalls at the implantation stage.

Project description:Transcriptional repression and enhancer decommissioning silence cell cycle genes in postmitotic tissues

Project description:Transcription factors and chromatin modifiers play important roles in programming and reprogramming of cellular states during development. Much is known about the role of these regulators in gene activation, but relatively little is known about the critical process of enhancer silencing during differentiation. Here we show that the H3K4/K9 histone demethylase LSD1 plays an essential role in decommissioning enhancers during differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). LSD1 occupies enhancers of active genes critical for control of ESC state. However, LSD1 is not essential for maintenance of ESC identity. Instead, ESCs lacking LSD1 activity fail to fully differentiate and ESC-specific enhancers fail to undergo the histone demethylation events associated with differentiation. At enhancers, LSD1 is a component of the NuRD complex, which contains additional subunits that are necessary for ESC differentiation. We propose that the LSD1-NuRD complex decommissions enhancers of the pluripotency program upon differentiation, which is essential for complete shutdown of the ESC gene expression program and the transition to new cell states. This represents the expression part of the study.
