Abstract
The conserved Runt-related (RUNX) transcription factor family are master regulators of developmental and regenerative processes. Runx1 and Runx2 are expressed in satellite cells (SC) and in skeletal myotubes. Conditional deletion of Runx1 in adult SC negatively impacted self-renewal and impaired skeletal muscle maintenance even though Runx2 expression persisted. Runx1 deletion in C2C12 cells that retain Runx2 expression identified unique molecular functions of Runx1 that cannot be compensated by Runx2. The reduced myoblast fusion in vitro caused by Runx1 loss was due in part to ectopic expression of Mef2c, a target repressed by Runx1. Structure-function analysis demonstrated that the Ets-interacting MID/EID region of Runx1, absent from Runx2, is critical to Runx1 myoblast function and for Etv4 binding. Analysis of ChIP-seq datasets from Runx1 (T-cells, muscle) versus Runx2 (preosteoblasts) dependent tissues identified a composite Ets:Runx motif enriched in Runx1-dependent tissues. The Ets:Runx composite motif was enriched in peaks open exclusively in ATAC-seq datasets from WT cells compared to ATAC peaks unique to Runx1KO cells. Thus, engagement of a set of targets by the RUNX1/ETS complex define the non-redundant functions of Runx1.
期刊介绍：
Development’s scope covers all aspects of plant and animal development, including stem cell biology and regeneration. The single most important criterion for acceptance in Development is scientific excellence. Research papers (articles and reports) should therefore pose and test a significant hypothesis or address a significant question, and should provide novel perspectives that advance our understanding of development. We also encourage submission of papers that use computational methods or mathematical models to obtain significant new insights into developmental biology topics. Manuscripts that are descriptive in nature will be considered only when they lay important groundwork for a field and/or provide novel resources for understanding developmental processes of broad interest to the community.
Development includes a Techniques and Resources section for the publication of new methods, datasets, and other types of resources. Papers describing new techniques should include a proof-of-principle demonstration that the technique is valuable to the developmental biology community; they need not include in-depth follow-up analysis. The technique must be described in sufficient detail to be easily replicated by other investigators. Development will also consider protocol-type papers of exceptional interest to the community. We welcome submission of Resource papers, for example those reporting new databases, systems-level datasets, or genetic resources of major value to the developmental biology community. For all papers, the data or resource described must be made available to the community with minimal restrictions upon publication.
To aid navigability, Development has dedicated sections of the journal to stem cells & regeneration and to human development. The criteria for acceptance into these sections is identical to those outlined above. Authors and editors are encouraged to nominate appropriate manuscripts for inclusion in one of these sections.
