Description
We identified histidine triad nucleotide binding protein 1 (HINT1) as a human teneurin-1 ICD interaction partner in a yeast-2 hybrid screen. This interaction was confirmed in human cells, where HINT1 is known to inhibit the transcription of target genes by directly binding to transcription factors at the promoter. In a whole transcriptome analysis of BS149 glioblastoma cells overexpressing the teneurin-1 ICD, several microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) target genes were found to be up-regulated. Interestingly, MITF is one of the transcription factors inhibited by HINT1. Thus, we directly compare the transcriptomes of MITF versus TEN1-ICD overexpressing BS149 cells in this study, in order to reveal any co-regulated genes.

Description
Teneurins are large type II transmembrane proteins that are necessary for the normal development of the central nervous system (CNS). While many studies highlight the significance of teneurins, especially during development, there is only limited information known about the molecular mechanisms of function. Previous studies have shown that the N-terminal intracellular domain (ICD) of teneurins can be cleaved at the membrane and subsequently translocates to the nucleus where it can influence gene transcription. Target genes as well as mechanisms have yet to be elucidated, and thus we are investigating the transcriptional activity of the human teneurin-1 ICD in this study.

Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
While changes in chromatin are integral to transcriptional reprogramming during cellular differentiation, it is currently unclear how chromatin modifications are targeted to specific loci. We developed a computational model on the premise that transcription factors (TFs) direct dynamic chromatin changes during cell fate decisions. When applied to a neurogenesis paradigm, this approach predicted the TF REST as a determinant of gain of Polycomb-mediated H3K27me3 in neuronal progenitor cells. We prove this prediction experimentally by showing that the absence of REST causes loss of H3K27me3 at target promoters in trans at the same cellular state. Moreover, promoter fragments containing a REST binding site are sufficient to recruit H3K27me3 in cis, while deletion of their REST site results in loss of H3K27me3. These findings illustrate that computational modeling can systematically identify TFs that regulate chromatin dynamics genome-wide. Local determination of Polycomb activity by REST exemplifies such TF based regulation of chromatin.

Description
Messenger RNA levels in eukaryotes are balanced by two consecutive regulatory layers. Primary, transcriptional regulation at the level of chromatin and secondary, post-transcriptional regulation of the initial transcript in the cytoplasm. Each layer is individually studied in mechanistic detail, while integration of both processes is required to quantify the individual contribution to steady-state RNA levels. Here we show that chromatin features are sufficient to model transcription rate but with different sensitivities in dividing versus post mitotic cells. In both cases chromatin derived transcript levels explains over 80% of variance in measured RNA level enabling to separate transcription from different post-transcriptional processes. By further inclusion of measurements of mRNA half-life and micro RNA expression data we identify a low quantitative contribution of RNA decay by either micro RNA or general differential turnover to final mRNA levels. Together this establishes a chromatin based quantitative model for the contribution of transcriptional and posttranscriptional processes to steady-state levels of messenger RNA.

Description
We determined whether the changed imprinted genes are maintained or reverted to the parthenogenetic state when the reprogrammed cells are re-differentiated into specialized cell types. To address this question, we re-differentiated miPSCs into neural stem cells (miPS-NSCs) and compared them with biparental female NSCs (fNSCs) and parthenogenetic NSCs (pNSCs)

Description
To gain insights into the interplay between DNA methylation and gene regulation we generated a basepair resolution reference map of the mouse methylome in stem cells and neurons. High genome coverage allowed for a novel quantitative analysis of local methylation states, which identified Low Methylated Regions (LMR) with an average methylation of 30%. These regions are evolutionary conserved, reside outside of CpG islands and distal to promoters. They represent regulatory regions evidenced by their DNaseI hypersensitivity and chromatin marks of enhancer elements. LMRs are occupied by transcription factors (TF) and their reduced methylation requires TF binding while introduction of TF binding sites creates LMRs de novo. This dependency on TF activity is further evident when comparing the methylomes of embryonic stem cells and derived neuronal cells. LMRs present in both cell types are occupied by broadly expressed factors, while LMRs present at only one state are occupied by cell-type specific TFs. Methylome data can thus enhance the prediction of occupied TF binding sites and identification of active regulatory regions genome-wide. Our study provides reference methylomes for the mouse at two cell states, identifies a novel and highly dynamic feature of the epigenome that defines distal regulatory elements and shows that transcription factor binding dynamically shapes mammalian methylomes. Overall design: Strand specific expression profiling by high throughput sequencing.
