Description
Pax6 is a highly conserved transcription factor among vertebrates and is important in various aspects of the central nervous system (CNS) development. However, the gene regulatory circuitry of Pax6 underlying these functions remains elusive. We find that, following expression in neural progenitor cells, Pax6 targets many promoters embedded in an active chromatin environment. Intriguingly, many of these sites are also bound by another progenitor factor, Sox2, which cooperates with Pax6 in gene regulation. A combinatorial analysis of Pax6 binding dataset with transcriptome changes in Pax6-deficient neural progenitors reveals a dual role for Pax6, in which it activates the neuronal (ectodermal) genes while concurrently represses the mesodermal and endodermal genes thereby ensuring the unidirectionality of lineage commitment towards glutamatergic neuronal differentiation. Furthermore, Pax6 is critical for inducing activity of transcription factors that elicit neurogenesis and repress others that promote non-neuronal lineages. In addition to many established downstream effectors, Pax6 directly binds and activates a number of genes that are specifically expressed in neural progenitors but have not been previously implicated in neurogenesis. The in utero knockdown of one such gene, Ift74, during brain development impairs polarity and migration of new-born neurons. These findings demonstrate new aspects of the gene regulatory circuitry of Pax6, revealing how it functions to control neuronal development at multiple levels to ensure unidirectionality and proper execution of the neurogenic program.

Illumina HiSeq 2000
Description
Rapid nerve conduction in the CNS is facilitated by the insulation of axons with myelin, a specialized oligodendroglial compartment distant from the cell body. Myelin is turned over and adapted throughout life; however, the molecular and cellular basis of myelin dynamics is not well understood. Hypothesizing that only a fraction of all myelin-related mRNAs has been identified so far, we subjected myelin biochemically purified from mouse brains at various ages to RNA sequencing. We find a surprisingly large pool of transcripts abundant and/or enriched in myelin. Furthermore, a comprehensive analysis showed that the myelin transcriptome is closely related to the myelin proteome but clearly distinct from the transcriptomes of oligodendrocytes and brain tissues, suggesting that the incorporation of mRNAs into the myelin compartment is highly selective. The mRNA-pool in myelin displays maturation-dependent dynamic changes of composition, abundance, and functional associations; however ageing-dependent changes after 6 months of age were minor. We suggest that this transcript pool provides a basis for the local modulation of myelin turnover and adaptation, i.e. in the individual internode. Overall design: A light-weight membrane fraction enriched for myelin was purified from mouse brains as described previously (Jahn et al., Neuromethods, 2013). For RNA-Seq, RNA was isolated from myelin of mice from indicated ages.

Description
cdipt is an essential gene in the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) in the zebrafish, Danio rerio. The zebrafish mutant cdipt^hi559Tg (ZL782) carries a retroviral insertion which inactivates cdipt. Homozygous mutants exhibit hepatocellular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathologies at 5 days post fertilization (dpf). This study reveals a novel link between PtdIns, ER stress, and steatosis.
