Molecular myogenic program • Bentzinger, C. F., Wang, Y. X. and Rudnicki, M. A. (2012). Building muscle: molecular regulation of myogenesis. Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol 4. • Morphogen gradients (myocyte fate arises external to somite) • Myogenic regulatory factors • Satellite cells • Proliferation-differentiation competition
Myogenic program Specification Commitment Differentiation • Six 1/4 • Pax 3/7 • MyoD/myf5 • Myogenin/Mrf4 • Myosin and other phenotypic
Body pattern begins in the oocyte • Interaction with follicle • Cadherin • Microtubule structure • Interaction with sperm • Centrosome/microtubule organization • Nonmammalian systems • Microtubule-anchored translation/transcription repressors: bicoid, gurken, dorsal • Probably analogs in mammals
Gastrulation Alberts & Johnson MBoC 2002
Neurulation Stage 13 Stage 16 Stage 18 Stage 20 Proliferation of neural plate ectoderm Formation of neural tube Schroeder, 1970
Somitogenesis Time • Segmentation of mesoderm • Temporal oscillation of hairy/Fringe • Origin of myocytes, but myocyte determination is extrinsic to the somite Mouse embryo (dorsal) Somite 1 Somite 2 L-fng waves: -2, -1,0, 1, 2 Rostral Forsberg & al., 1998
Molecular progression of muscle • Six 1/4 sine oculis-related homeobox • Pax paired-homeobox • MyoD/Myf5: commitment factors • Myogenin/MRF4: differentiation factors • Phenotypic functional proteins • Desmin • Myosin • Troponin
Discovery of MyoD • Deciphering of differentiation works backward • Stephen Konieczny & Charles Emerson (1984) • 5- Azacytidine poisoned limb bud cells (chick) • Methytransferase inhibitor • DNA methylationdeacetylation • Deacetylationgene inactivation • ie: 5-azagene activation
5-Aza induces differentiation Normal 10T1/2 cells Chondrocyte (~1%) Adipocyte (7%) Myocyte (25%) 10T1/2 cells have limited ability to differentiate: pluripotent not omnipotent Cells in limb bud are not fully committed to a terminal phenotype
Protein identification • Isoelectric focusing • SDS-PAGE pH gradient Untransformed 10T1/2 Myogenic 10T1/2 Some proteins lost Mass gradient One gained
mRNA identification • Stephen Tapscott, Andrew Lassar & al. • Subtractive cDNA hybridization • Present in proliferating myogenic 10T1/2 • Absent in differentiated myotubes • Absent in unmodified 10T1/2 • 3 products, One of which caused conversion
MRF knockout animals • Michael Rudnicki & al. • Homologous recombination • If MyoD makes muscle, then no MyoD should mean no muscle • Or at least, no specific-subset-of-muscles • +/- cross litters • Normal, Mendelian (25, 25, 50) ratios • Muscle is normal in every way
Myogenic regulatory factors • Basic, Helix-loop-helix transcription factor • Myf5, MRF4, myogennin (muscle) • Neurogenin (neurons), twist (chondrocyte)... • Induction of MRF causes myogenic transformation in other undifferentiated cells • ie: commitment marker
Genetic disruption of myogenesis • MyoD or myf5 individually: normal • MyoD and myf5: lethal, no muscles • MRF4: disrupted axial musculature • Myogenin: lethal, failure of muscle expansion
Mutant mice lead to pax Desmin positive cells Splotch Wild type • Splotch (1954) • -/- lethal e13: no neural tube • -/+ spotted • Pax 3 identified 1991 • Pax3 required for migration of hypaxial myoblasts • Not for epaxial muscle Limb bud Tremblay & al., 1998
Pax 3/7 • Pax 3/7 necessary for myogenic commitment • Pax 3/7 blocks myogenesis • Cells that remain pax+ do not become myofibers Relaix et al., 2005
Sine oculis • SIX-1/SIX-4 dko • Fails muscle formation • MEF3 cofactor • Required for pax, MRFs WT SIX-/- Grifone et al., 2005
Myogenic lineages • Ventro-lateral somite • Six1/4pax3MyoDhypaxial muscle • Pax3MyoD(primary myoblasts)myoG • Pax3/7(secondary myoblasts)MRF4 • Dorso-medial somite • ???myf5epaxial muscle • Position and time matter: external cues
