NEUROG2 Drives Cell Cycle Exit of Neuronal Precursors by Specifically Repressing a Subset of Cyclins Acting at the G1and S Phases of the Cell Cycle

Abstract: bProneural NEUROG2 (neurogenin 2 [Ngn2]) is essential for neuronal commitment, cell cycle withdrawal, and neuronal differentiation. Although NEUROG2's influence on neuronal commitment and differentiation is beginning to be clarified, its role in cell cycle withdrawal remains unknown. We therefore set out to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which NEUROG2 induces cell cycle arrest during spinal neurogenesis. We developed a large-scale chicken embryo strategy, designed to find gene networks modified at the… Show more

“…Furthermore, Ngn2 has a short half-life and its stabilization by DNA binding is inhibited following its phosphorylation by cyclin-Cdk2/1 (Ali et al, 2011). Although Ngn2 alone can exert a brake on early G1-phase progression by repressing cyclin D, E1 and E2 transcription (Lacomme et al, 2012), concomitant Ngn2 and Cip/Kip overexpression coincident with irreversible cell cycle exit is only observed at a later differentiation stage, in nascent neurons (Gui et al, 2007). The present model accounts for such an intricate collaboration between Cip/Kip and Ngn2, in which early Ngn2 accumulation promotes the expression of neural differentiation markers and early G1-phase lengthening before activating a positive-feedback loop with the emerging Cip/Kip proteins, which sets up an irreversible and robust cell cycle exit associated with terminal differentiation.…”

“…A crucial component of the neurogenic pathway is the proneural protein Ngn2 that not only regulates neuronal differentiation, migration and maturation, but also contributes to cell cycle exit by indirectly repressing a subset of cyclins, notably cyclin D1, E1 and E2, and by activating, directly or indirectly, the Cip/Kip genes (Farah et al, 2000;Lacomme et al, 2012). Multi-site Ngn2 phosphorylation by cyclin-Cdk1,2, in turn, leads to its inactivation as a transcriptional activator and its destabilization (Ali et al, 2011), whereas Ngn2 binding to Cip/Kip proteins (e.g.…”

“…Selection of Ngn2/Neurog2 transfected cells early (6 h) after electroporation and expression profiling using microarrays shows downregulation of the transcripts for core regulators of G1 and S phase such as Cyclin D1, E1, E2 and A2 (Lacomme et al 2012). Additional targets belong to the Notch signaling pathway such as Hes1, Hes5, Dll1, Jag1 and Jag2.…”

“…A Ngn2 é ainda responsável por disparar a expressão de marcadores de diferenciação neural independentemente da saída do ciclo celular, sugerindo que a diferenciação é um evento controlado paralelamente à cessão do ciclo celular (Lacomme et al, 2012). Por fim, Ngn2 confere destino neuronal às células progenitoras através da repressão de genes expressos em progenitores neurais, incluindo Sox1/2/3 e outros envolvidos na especificação do subtipo celular, tais como Pax6 e Olig2 (Lacomme et al, 2012).…”
