摘要

During mitosis, the genome is silent. When cells exitmitosis and re-enter the cell cycle, how does the transcriptionalprogram of a differentiated cell become reactivatedfaithfully and in a timely manner? We previouslyfound that in undifferentiated progenitor cells in theearly embryo, the competence to activate transcriptionallysilent genes is established by pioneer transcriptionfactors, such as FoxA proteins. Pioneer factors have theability to bind their target DNA sequence in compactedchromatin and allow other factors to bind nearby. Wediscovered that the same pioneer transcription factorsthat function in early liver development remain bound tothe genome during liver cell mitosis, when the genomecompacts, most factors and RNA polymerase areexcluded, and transcription is silent. Specifically, the pioneertranscription factor FoxA1 exhibits virtually completemitotic chromosome binding, whereas other liverfactors bind with a range of efficiencies and binding modalities.The evident hierarchy of specific binding, nonspecificbinding, partial chromatin binding, failure to bindmitotic chromosomes, and mitotic instability reflects thefactors’ developmental roles in gene activation, and suggestthat re-activation of the genome following mitosisinvolves a replay of the network by which the cell typewas established in development.
