Runx1 and Runx2 are expressed in satellite cells (SCs) and in skeletal myotubes. Here, we examined the role of Runx1 in mouse satellite cells to determine the role of Runx1 during muscle differentiation. Conditional deletion of Runx1 in adult SCs negatively impacted self-renewal and impaired skeletal muscle maintenance even though Runx2 expression persisted. Runx1 deletion in C2C12 cells (which retain Runx2 expression) identified unique molecular functions of Runx1 that could not be compensated for by Runx2. The reduced myoblast fusion in vitro caused by Runx1 loss was due in part to ectopic expression of Mef2c, a target repressed by Runx1. Structure-function analysis demonstrated that the ETS-interacting MID/EID region of Runx1, absent from Runx2, is essential for Runx1 myoblast function and for Etv4 binding. Analysis of ChIP-seq datasets from Runx1 (T cells, muscle)- versus Runx2 (preosteoblasts)-dependent tissues identified a composite ETS:RUNX motif enriched in Runx1-dependent tissues. The ETS:RUNX composite motif was enriched in peaks open exclusively in ATAC-seq datasets from wild-type cells compared to ATAC peaks unique to Runx1 knockout cells. Thus, engagement of a set of targets by the RUNX1/ETS complex define the non-redundant functions of Runx1 in mouse muscle precursor cells.</p>","PeriodicalId":11375,"journal":{"name":"Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11664167/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142603770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used the development of the Drosophila central complex (CX) to address this question. The CX develops from eight bilateral Type 2 neuroblasts (T2NBs), which generate hundreds of different neuronal types. T2NBs express broad opposing temporal gradients of RNA-binding proteins. It remains unknown whether these protein gradients are sufficient to directly generate all known neuronal diversity, or whether there are temporal transcription factors (TTFs) with narrow expression windows that each specify a small subset of CX neuron identities. Multiple candidate TTFs have been identified, but their function remains uncharacterized. Here, we show that: (1) the adult E-PG neurons are born from early larval T2NBs; (2) the candidate TTF Castor is expressed transiently in early larval T2NBs when E-PG and P-EN neurons are born; and (3) Castor is required to specify early born E-PG and P-EN neuron identities.

The underlying molecular mechanism(s) of that ability is not well understood. If sea urchin micromeres (skeletogenic cell progenitors) are removed at the 16-cell stage, early endoderm initiates a sequential switch in cell fates, called transfating. Without micromeres, other mesoderm cells are absent as well, because their specification depends on signaling from micromeres. Most mesoderm cells later return by transfating, but pigment cells do not. Single-cell RNA sequencing, tracked over time, reveals the reprogramming sequence of those replacements. Beginning with an early endoderm specification state, cells progress through endomesoderm, then mesoderm, and finally distinct skeletogenic and blastocoelar cell specification states emerge, but pigment cells do not. Rescue of pigment cells was found to be a consequence of signal timing: if Delta is expressed prior to Nodal, pigment cells return. Thus, transfating operates through a series of gene regulatory state transitions, and reprogramming fails if endogenous negative signals occur prior to positive signals in the reprogramming sequence.</p>","PeriodicalId":11375,"journal":{"name":"Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142767073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that inhibition of ASCL1 phosphorylation enhances reprogramming of both mesodermal and neuroectodermal cells, while pluripotent cells remain refractory to ASCL1-directed neuronal differentiation. By performing RNA-seq and ATAC-seq in neuroectoderm, we find that un(der)phosphorylated ASCL1 causes increased chromatin accessibility at sites proximal to neuronal genes, accompanied by their increased expression. Combined analysis of protein stability and proneural function of phosphomutant and phosphomimetic ASCL1 reveals that protein stability plays only a marginal role in regulating activity, while changes in amino acid charge cannot fully explain enhanced activity of the serine-proline mutant variants of ASCL1.
