| Popis: | Preimplantation development is critical for reproductive successes in mammals. Thus, it is important to understand how preimplantation embryogenesis is regulated. As a key event of preimplantation development, epigenetic reprogramming has been widely studied, yet how epigenetic complexes regulate preimplantation development remains largely unknown. Retinoblastoma binding protein 4 (RBBP4) and 7 (RBBP7) are integral components of epigenetic complexes including SIN3A, NuRD, and CoREST. Here, we demonstrate that double knockdown of Rbbp4 and 7, but not individually, causes embryonic lethality during the morula-to-blastocyst transition. Mechanistically, depletion of RBBP4 and 7 results in dysregulation of genes related to cell cycle, lineage development, and regulation of transcription, which is accompanied by cell cycle block, disrupted lineage specification and chromatin structure. Interestingly, RBBP4/7 depletion leads to a dramatic increase in H3.3 and H3K27ac abundance during morula-to-blastocyst transition. ChIP-seq analysis in early embryos and embryonic stem cells reveals enrichment of H3.3 at the promoter regions of RBBP4/7 target genes. In summary, our studies demonstrate the compensatory role of RBBP4/7 and reveal its potential mechanisms in preimplantation development. Summary sentence: RBBP4 and RBBP7 play a compensatory role in regulating cell proliferation, apoptosis, and histone H3.3 deposition during preimplantation development. |
