An Esrrb and Nanog Cell Fate Regulatory Module Controlled by Feed Forward Loop Interactions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cell fate decisions during development are governed by multi-factorial regulatory mechanisms including chromatin remodeling, DNA methylation, binding of transcription factors to specific loci, RNA and protein synthesis. However, the which such “dimensions” coordinate cell currently poorly understood. Here we quantified multi-dimensional molecular changes that occur in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) upon depletion Estrogen related receptor beta (Esrrb), a key pluripotency regulator. Comparative analyses expression subsequent Esrrb or Nanog, indicated system interlocked feed-forward loops involving both factors, plays central part regulating timing mESC decisions. Taken together, our meta-analyses support hierarchical model is maintained an Oct4-Sox2 module, while differentiation regulated Nanog-Esrrb module.

Esrrb Complementation Rescues Development of Nanog-Null Germ Cells
The transcription factors (TFs) Nanog and Esrrb play important roles in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and during primordial germ-cell (PGC) development. Esrrb is a positively regulated direct target of NANOG in ESCs that can substitute qualitatively for Nanog function in ESCs. Whether this functional substitution extends to the germline is unknown. Here, we show that germline deletion of Nanog re...
متن کاملEsrrb Is a Direct Nanog Target Gene that Can Substitute for Nanog Function in Pluripotent Cells
Embryonic stem cell (ESC) self-renewal efficiency is determined by the level of Nanog expression. However, the mechanisms by which Nanog functions remain unclear, and in particular, direct Nanog target genes are uncharacterized. Here we investigate ESCs expressing different Nanog levels and Nanog(-/-) cells with distinct functionally inducible Nanog proteins to identify Nanog-responsive genes. ...
متن کاملAn Arabidopsis Natural Epiallele Maintained by a Feed-Forward Silencing Loop between Histone and DNA
The extent of epigenetic variation is currently well documented, but the number of natural epialleles described so far remains very limited. Determining the relevance of epigenetic changes for natural variation is an important question of research that we investigate by isolating natural epialleles segregating in Arabidopsis recombinant populations. We previously described a genetic incompatibi...
متن کاملFeed-forward regulation of a cell fate determinant by an RNA-binding protein generates asymmetry in yeast.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae can divide asymmetrically so that the mother and daughter cells have different fates. We show that the RNA-binding protein Khd1 regulates asymmetric expression of FLO11 to determine daughter cell fate during filamentous growth. Khd1 represses transcription of FLO11 indirectly through its regulation of ASH1 mRNA. Khd1 also represses FLO11 through a post-transcriptional m...
متن کاملSomatosensory Integration Controlled by Dynamic Thalamocortical Feed-Forward Inhibition
The temporal features of tactile stimuli are faithfully represented by the activity of neurons in the somatosensory cortex. However, the cellular mechanisms that enable cortical neurons to report accurate temporal information are not known. Here, we show that in the rodent barrel cortex, the temporal window for integration of thalamic inputs is under the control of thalamocortical feed-forward ...
