ETO family protein Mtgr1 mediates Prdm14 functions in stem cell maintenance and primordial germ cell formation

Abstract: Prdm14 is a sequence-specific transcriptional regulator of embryonic stem cell (ESC) pluripotency and primordial germ cell (PGC) formation. It exerts its function, at least in part, through repressing genes associated with epigenetic modification and cell differentiation. Here, we show that this repressive function is mediated through an ETO-family co-repressor Mtgr1, which tightly binds to the pre-SET/SET domains of Prdm14 and co-occupies its genomic targets in mouse ESCs. We generated two monobodies, synthet… Show more

“…A Monobody binding to the pre‐SET/SET domain of a transcriptional regulator, human Prdm14 (different from the crystallization chaperone described earlier) inhibits its interaction with a co‐repressor Mtgr1 . When expressed in the nucleus of embryonic stem cell under an inducible promoter, it inhibited the progression to primordial germ cells.…”

“…In the recent structure of the extracellular region of an adhesion GPCR, GPR56/ADGRG1, a Monobody simultaneously interacts with two domains of GPR56 via two separate regions on its opposite ends, presenting yet another way to reduce the inter‐domain motions . A combination of a Monobody chaperone and linking of heterodimer into a single‐chain construct was used to determine the structure of an otherwise ill‐behaving Prdm14‐Mtgr1 complex . Furthermore, their small sizes may be important for crystallizing integral membrane proteins using the lipid cubic phase method, because of the limited size of cavities that can accommodate water‐exposed portions of the protein system, i.e., the water‐exposed portion of the target protein plus the chaperone .…”

“…It could be rationalized that Wnt signaling might be required for making epiblast cells competent for responding to BMP signaling to initiate PGC fate specification. Additionally, PRDM14 interacts with MTGR1 (also called CBFA2T2) and together recruits HDACs (histone deacetylases) for inducing gene silencing (Nady et al, 2015;Tu et al, 2016). The PGC competent epiblast cells are initially directed toward somatic fate, but a three pronged repressive activity of Prdm1, Prdm14, and Tcfap2c actively suppresses the expression of somatic genes and promotes PGC specification (Ohinata et al, 2005;Weber et al, 2010;Yamaji et al, 2008).…”

“…PRDM14 protein has been shown to interact with the protein SUZ12, which is a component of PRC2 (polycomb repressive complex 2), and add a repressive mark in the form of H3K27me3 . Additionally, PRDM14 interacts with MTGR1 (also called CBFA2T2) and together recruits HDACs (histone deacetylases) for inducing gene silencing (Nady et al, 2015;Tu et al, 2016). Although signaling to induce PGC specification is active in the posterior epiblast, the anterior visceral endoderm secretes anti-BMP signaling factors that inhibit PGC induction in the anterior epiblast and thus restrict PGC induction to posterior epiblast.…”
