Synchronized regulation of cell division during gastrulation is essential for the regional proliferation of cells and pattern formation of the early CNS. The neural plate and neuroectoderm cells are a rapidly dividing and differentiating population of cells with a unique and rapid heat-shock response. Heat shock and the heat-shock genes were studied during neural plate development in a whole rat embryo culture system at 9.5-11.5 days. A lethal heat shock can cause cell death and severe developmental defects to the forebrain and eye during organogenesis. Heat shock can also result in acquired thermotolerance whereby cell progression is delayed at the G1/S and S/G2 boundaries of the cell cycle. This delay in cell cycle progression caused an overall lengthening of the cell cycle time of at least 2 hr. The heat shock genes may therefore function as cell cycle regulators in neuroectoderm induction and differentiation. The kinetics and expression of the hsp genes were examined in neuroectodermal cells by flow cytometry and Northern analysis. The levels of hsp mRNA 27, 71, 73, and 88 were identified following exposure at 42°C (nonlethal), 43deg;C (lethal) and 42deg;/43deg;C (thermotolerant) heat shock. Examination of hsp gene expression in the neural plate showed tight regulation in the cell cycle phases. Hsp 88 expression was enhanced at Go and hsp71 induction at G2 + M of the cell cycle. Cells exposed to a thermotolerant heat shock of 42deg;C induced hsp71 mRNA expression in all phases of the cell cycle with the mRNA levels of hsp27, 73, and 88 increased but relatively constant. Following a lethal heat shock, dramatic changes in hsp expression were seen especially enhanced hsp71 induction in late S phase. The regulated expression of hsps during the cell cycle at various phases could play a unique and important role in the fate and recovery of neuroectoderm cells during early mammalian embryo development. © 1993Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Cell cycle dependent phosphorylation and subnuclear organization of the histone gene regulator p220(NPAT) in human embryonic stem cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Human embryonic stem (ES) cells have an expedited cell cycle ( approximately 15 h) due to an abbreviated G1 phase ( approximately 2.5 h) relative to somatic cells. One principal regulatory event during cell cycle progression is the G1/S phase induction of histone biosynthesis to package newly replicated DNA. In somatic cells, histone H4 gene expression is controlled by CDK2 phosphorylation of p220(NPAT) and localization of HiNF-P/p220(NPAT) complexes with histone genes at Cajal body related subnuclear foci. Here we show that this 'S point' pathway is operative in situ in human ES cells (H9 cells; NIH-designated WA09). Immunofluorescence microscopy shows an increase in p220(NPAT) foci in G1 reflecting the assembly of histone gene regulatory complexes in situ. In contrast to somatic cells where duplication of p220(NPAT) foci is evident in S phase, the increase in the number of p220(NPAT) foci in ES cells appears to precede the onset of DNA synthesis as measured by BrdU incorporation. Phosphorylation of p220(NPAT) at CDK dependent epitopes is most pronounced in S phase when cells exhibit elevated levels of cyclins E and A. Our data indicate that subnuclear organization of the HiNF-P/p220(NPAT) pathway is rapidly established as ES cells emerge from mitosis and that p220(NPAT) is subsequently phosphorylated in situ. Our findings establish that the HiNF-P/p220(NPAT) gene regulatory pathway operates in a cell cycle dependent microenvironment that supports expression of DNA replication-linked histone genes and chromatin assembly to accommodate human stem cell self-renewal. 相似文献

The mitotic cell cycle in higher eukaryotes is of pivotal importance for organ growth and development. Here, we report that Elongator, an evolutionarily conserved histone acetyltransferase complex, acts as an important regulator of mitotic cell cycle to promote leaf patterning in Arabidopsis. Mutations in genes encoding Elongator subunits resulted in aberrant cell cycle progression, and the altered cell division affects leaf polarity formation. The defective cell cycle progression is caused by aberrant DNA replication and increased DNA damage, which activate the DNA replication checkpoint to arrest the cell cycle. Elongator interacts with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and is required for efficient histone 3 (H3) and H4 acetylation coupled with DNA replication. Levels of chromatin-bound H3K56Ac and H4K5Ac known to associate with replicons during DNA replication were reduced in the mutants of both Elongator and chromatin assembly factor 1 (CAF-1), another protein complex that physically interacts with PCNA for DNA replication-coupled chromatin assembly. Disruptions of CAF-1 also led to severe leaf polarity defects, which indicated that Elongator and CAF-1 act, at least partially, in the same pathway to promote cell cycle progression. Collectively, our results demonstrate that Elongator is an important regulator of mitotic cell cycle, and the Elongator pathway plays critical roles in promoting leaf polarity formation. 相似文献
