摘要:

背景:在胚胎发育早期神经系统高表达的多梳蛋白家族成员神经系统多梳蛋白1具有明确转录抑制作用。最近研究表明,神经系统多梳蛋白1可能是一个有别于同源基因Bmi1的新的神经干细胞调控因子。
目的:检测体外神经细胞分化模型小鼠畸胎瘤P19细胞中神经发育相关表观遗传调控因子神经系统多梳蛋白1在基因组上的结合靶点。
方法:扩增未分化状态的小鼠畸胎瘤P19细胞系(内源性高表达神经系统多梳蛋白1基因),使用兔源抗神经系统多梳蛋白1多克隆抗体进行P19细胞的染色质免疫沉淀实验,并结合采用高通量芯片检测技术(ChIP-on-chip)检测捕获靶基因序列,最后利用生物信息学在线软件分析神经系统多梳蛋白1结合靶点临近基因功能的分类特点。
结果与结论:筛选出约1 280个神经系统多梳蛋白1结合靶点,靶点临近或所在基因的功能主要与分化、发育、转录及其调节、神经发生等密切相关。提示全基因组结合靶点分析可有效揭示神经系统多梳蛋白1基因在体外神经干细胞分化模型P19细胞中结合并可能参与调控的靶基因谱的分布特点,有利于下一步深入开展干细胞调控相关因子神经系统多梳蛋白1的下游信号通路研究。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Polycomb group member nervous system polycomb 1 (NSPc1) is a transcription repressor which is highly expressed in the embryo nervous system. Recent research has shown that NSPc1 should be a new regulator of neural stem cell as well as its homologue Bmi1.
OBJECTIVE: To identify the whole genome binding sites of stem cell regulator NSPc1 in the P19 neural differentiation model (mouse embryonal carcinoma cells).
METHODS: Ex vivo expanded undifferentiated P19 cells, which have high expression of endogenous NSPc1 gene, were applied to chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis by using rabbit anti-NSPc1 polyclonal antibody. ChIP-on-chip, a high throughput method of screening the binding targets of NSPc1, was used within these P19 cells. Finally, the functional features of targets were analyzed with bio-informatics methods.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Nearly 1 280 NSPc1 target genes were screened out. Gene Ontology terms associated with "differentiation, development, transcription and its regulation, neurogenesis" were of significantly higher frequency with NSPc1 target genes than their random frequency across the entire genome. Whole genome binding sites analysis is able to indicate the target gene profile of NSPc1 in P19 neural differentiation model, which is very helpful to further investigate the downstream signaling pathway of the new stem cell regulator NSPc1.
