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. -
Supplemental Information
Supplemental information Dissection of the genomic structure of the miR-183/96/182 gene. Previously, we showed that the miR-183/96/182 cluster is an intergenic miRNA cluster, located in a ~60-kb interval between the genes encoding nuclear respiratory factor-1 (Nrf1) and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2H (Ube2h) on mouse chr6qA3.3 (1). To start to uncover the genomic structure of the miR- 183/96/182 gene, we first studied genomic features around miR-183/96/182 in the UCSC genome browser (http://genome.UCSC.edu/), and identified two CpG islands 3.4-6.5 kb 5’ of pre-miR-183, the most 5’ miRNA of the cluster (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1 and Seq. S1). A cDNA clone, AK044220, located at 3.2-4.6 kb 5’ to pre-miR-183, encompasses the second CpG island (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). We hypothesized that this cDNA clone was derived from 5’ exon(s) of the primary transcript of the miR-183/96/182 gene, as CpG islands are often associated with promoters (2). Supporting this hypothesis, multiple expressed sequences detected by gene-trap clones, including clone D016D06 (3, 4), were co-localized with the cDNA clone AK044220 (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). Clone D016D06, deposited by the German GeneTrap Consortium (GGTC) (http://tikus.gsf.de) (3, 4), was derived from insertion of a retroviral construct, rFlpROSAβgeo in 129S2 ES cells (Fig. 1A and C). The rFlpROSAβgeo construct carries a promoterless reporter gene, the β−geo cassette - an in-frame fusion of the β-galactosidase and neomycin resistance (Neor) gene (5), with a splicing acceptor (SA) immediately upstream, and a polyA signal downstream of the β−geo cassette (Fig. -

Characterization of the Zinc Finger Proteins ZMYM2 and ZMYM4 As
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Characterization of the zinc fnger proteins ZMYM2 and ZMYM4 as novel B-MYB binding proteins Hannah Cibis, Abhiruchi Biyanee, Wolfgang Dörner, Henning D. Mootz & Karl-Heinz Klempnauer✉ B-MYB, a highly conserved member of the MYB transcription factor family, is expressed ubiquitously in proliferating cells and plays key roles in important cell cycle-related processes, such as control of G2/M- phase transcription, cytokinesis, G1/S-phase progression and DNA-damage reponse. Deregulation of B-MYB function is characteristic of several types of tumor cells, underlining its oncogenic potential. To gain a better understanding of the functions of B-MYB we have employed afnity purifcation coupled to mass spectrometry to discover novel B-MYB interacting proteins. Here we have identifed the zinc-fnger proteins ZMYM2 and ZMYM4 as novel B-MYB binding proteins. ZMYM4 is a poorly studied protein whose initial characterization reported here shows that it is highly SUMOylated and that its interaction with B-MYB is stimulated upon induction of DNA damage. Unlike knockdown of B-MYB, which causes G2/M arrest and defective cytokinesis in HEK293 cells, knockdown of ZMYM2 or ZMYM4 have no obvious efects on the cell cycle of these cells. By contrast, knockdown of ZMYM2 strongly impaired the G1/S-phase progression of HepG2 cells, suggesting that ZMYM2, like B-MYB, is required for entry into S-phase in these cells. Overall, our work identifes two novel B-MYB binding partners with possible functions in the DNA-damage response and the G1/S-transition. Te highly conserved MYB proto-oncogene family member B-MYB is ubiquitously expressed in proliferat- ing cells where it acts as an essential cell cycle-regulated transcription factor1,2. -

Artemov1*, Nadezhda Zhigalova1, Svetlana Zhenilo1, Alexander M. Mazur1 and Egor B. Prokhortchouk1 1 Institute of Bioengineering, Research Center of Biotechnology RAS, Moscow, Russian Federation * [email protected] Abstract VHL inactivation is a key oncogenic event for renal carcinomas. In normoxia, VHL suppresses HIF1a-mediated response to hypoxia. It has previously been shown that hypoxic conditions inhibit TET-dependent hydroxymethylation of cytosines and cause DNA hypermethylation at gene promoters. In this work, we performed VHL inactivation by CRISPR/Cas9 and studied its effects on gene expression and DNA methylation. We showed that even without hypoxia, VHL inactivation leads to hypermethylation of the genome which mainly occurred in AP-1 and TRIM28 binding sites. We also observed promoter hypermethylation of several transcription regulators associated with decreased gene expression. Keywords DNA methylation; VHL; hypoxia; HIF1a; JUN; FOS Introduction Sequencing of cancer genomes was initially aimed to find cancer drivers, or genes, that, once mutated, give a selective advantage to a cancer cell, such as increased proliferation, suppression of apoptosis or the ability to avoid immune response. VHL is a key oncosuppressor gene for kidney cancer. Inactivation of the VHL gene is the most common event in renal carcinomas, accounting for 50{70% of sporadic cases (Scelo et al. 2014; Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network 2013; Thomas et al. -

ZNF750 Interacts with KLF4 and RCOR1, KDM1A, and CTBP1/2 Chromatin Regulators to Repress Epidermal Progenitor Genes and Induce Differentiation Genes
Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on September 27, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press ZNF750 interacts with KLF4 and RCOR1, KDM1A, and CTBP1/2 chromatin regulators to repress epidermal progenitor genes and induce differentiation genes Lisa D. Boxer,1,2 Brook Barajas,1 Shiying Tao,1 Jiajing Zhang,1 and Paul A.

How ZNF750 accomplishes these dual gene regulatory impacts is unknown. Here, we characterized ZNF750 as a transcription factor that binds both the progenitor and differentiation genes that it controls at a CCNNAGGC DNA motif. ZNF750 interacts with the pluripotency transcription factor KLF4 and chromatin regulators RCOR1, KDM1A, and CTBP1/2 through conserved PLNLS sequences. ChIP-seq (chromatin immunoprecipitation [ChIP] followed by high-throughput sequencing) and gene depletion revealed that KLF4 colocalizes ~10 base pairs from ZNF750 at differentiation target genes to facilitate their activation but is unnecessary for ZNF750-mediated progenitor gene repression. In contrast, KDM1A colocalizes with ZNF750 at progenitor genes and facilitates their repression but is unnecessary for ZNF750-driven differentiation. ZNF750 thus controls differentiation in concert with RCOR1 and CTBP1/2 by acting with either KDM1A to repress progenitor genes or KLF4 to induce differentiation genes.

Than a Corepressor: the Role of Corest Proteins in Neurodevelopment
Review Development More than a Corepressor: The Role of CoREST Proteins in Neurodevelopment Simon Maksour,1,2 Lezanne Ooi,1,3 and Mirella Dottori1,2 https://doi.org/10.1523/ENEURO.0337-19.2020 1Illawarra Health and Medical Research Institute, Wollongong, New South Wales 2522, Australia, 2School of Medicine, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, New South Wales 2522, Australia, and 3School of Chemistry and Molecular Bioscience, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, New South Wales 2522, Australia Abstract The molecular mechanisms governing normal neurodevelopment are tightly regulated by the action of tran- scription factors. Repressor element 1 (RE1) silencing transcription factor (REST) is widely documented as a regulator of neurogenesis that acts by recruiting corepressor proteins and repressing neuronal gene expres- sion in non-neuronal cells. The REST corepressor 1 (CoREST1), CoREST2, and CoREST3 are best described for their role as part of the REST complex. However, recent evidence has shown the proteins have the ability to repress expression of distinct target genes in a REST-independent manner. These findings indicate that each CoREST paralogue may have distinct and critical roles in regulating neurodevelopment and are more than simply “REST corepressors,” whereby they act as independent repressors orchestrating biological proc- esses during neurodevelopment. Key words: CoREST; differentiation; gene expression; neurodevelopment; REST; transcription factor Significance Statement The molecular mechanisms governing normal development of the brain are yet to be fully elucidated. The regulation of gene expression by transcription factors plays a significant role in the specification and matu- ration of neurons and glia. Repressor element 1 (RE1) silencing transcription factor (REST) has been well characterized as a transcriptional regulator of neurogenesis through the formation of a complex with the REST corepressor (CoREST) proteins.
