Here, we report the clinical phenotypes of seven additional individuals with the same recurrent de novo CTBP1 mutation. Within this cohort, we identified consistent CtBP1-related phenotypes of intellectual disability, ataxia, hypotonia, and tooth enamel defects present in most patients. The R342W mutation in CtBP1 is located within a region implicated in a high affinity-binding cleft for CtBP-interacting proteins. Unbiased proteomic analysis demonstrated reduced interaction of several chromatin-modifying factors with the CtBP1 W342 mutant. Genome-wide transcriptome analysis in human glioblastoma cell lines expressing -CtBP1 R342 (wt) or W342 mutation revealed changes in the expression profiles of genes controlling multiple cellular processes. Patient-derived dermal fibroblasts were found to be more sensitive to apoptosis during acute glucose deprivation compared to controls. Glucose deprivation strongly activated the BH3-only pro-apoptotic gene NOXA, suggesting a link between enhanced cell death and NOXA expression in patient fibroblasts.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

A series of reports has Several observations suggest that additional events, inde- provided evidence that Rb-mediated repression involves pendent of HDAC recruitment, may contribute to the both histone deacetylase (HDAC)–dependent and repression. For example, many genes subject to E2F/Rb- HDAC-independent events. Our previous results mediated repression are not derepressed by treatment with the suggest that one such mechanism for Rb-mediated HDAC inhibitor trichostatin A (7). Moreover, Rb mutants that repression, independent of recruitment of HDAC, can no longer interact with HDAC are still capable of repressing involves the recruitment of the COOH-terminal binding transcription (10, 11). Based on these observations, it would protein (CtBP) corepressor, a protein now recognized to seem that HDAC-independent mechanisms of transcriptional play a widespread role in transcriptional repression. We repression contribute to the Rb control of transcription. Indeed, now find that CtBP can interact with the histone several Rb-interacting proteins, such as the chromatin remodel- acetyltransferase, cyclic AMP–responsive element– ing complex proteins BRG1 and human BRM, the methyl- binding protein (CREB) binding protein, and inhibit its transferase protein SUV39H1, and RBP1, have been shown to ability to acetylate histone.

After zygotic genome activation 16 (ZGA), a large number of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are expressed, including the 17 murine endogenous retrovirus-L (MuERVL/MERVL). In this study, we generated a series of 18 MERVL-reporter mouse strains to detect the ZGA event in embryos. We found that the 19 majority of SCNT embryos exhibited ZGA failure, and histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation 20 (H3K27me3) prevented SCNT reprogramming.

Here we show that human JMJD3 expression is induced by the active vitamin D metabolite 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) and that JMJD3 modulates the gene regulatory action of this hormone. 1,25(OH)2D3 activates the JMJD3 gene promoter and increases the level of JMJD3 RNA in human cancer cells. JMJD3 upregulation was strictly dependent on vitamin D receptor (VDR) expression and was abolished by cycloheximide. In SW480-ADH colon cancer cells, JMJD3 knockdown or expression of an inactive mutant JMJD3 fragment decreased the induction by 1,25(OH)2D3 of several target genes and of an epithelial adhesive phenotype. Moreover, JMJD3 knockdown upregulated the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition inducers SNAIL1 and ZEB1 and the mesenchymal markers Fibronectin and LEF1, while it downregulated the epithelial proteins E-cadherin, Claudin-1 and Claudin-7.
