lüll Nr2e3-directed transcriptional regulation of genes involved in photoreceptor development and cell-type specific phototransduction Haider NB; Mollema N; Gaule M; Yuan Y; Sachs AJ; Nystuen AM; Naggert JK; Nishina PMExp Eye Res 2009[Sep]; 89 (3): 365-72The retinal transcription factor Nr2e3 plays a key role in photoreceptor development and function. In this study we examine gene expression in the retina of Nr2e3(rd7/rd7) mutants with respect to wild-type control mice, to identify genes that are misregulated and hence potentially function in the Nr2e3 transcriptional network. Quantitative candidate gene real time PCR and subtractive hybridization approaches were used to identify transcripts that were misregulated in Nr2e3(rd7/rd7) mice. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays were then used to determine which of the misregulated transcripts were direct targets of NR2E3. We identified 24 potential targets of NR2E3. In the developing retina, NR2E3 targets transcription factors such as Ror1, Rorg, and the nuclear hormone receptors Nr1d1 and Nr2c1. In the mature retina NR2E3 targets several genes including the rod specific gene Gnb1 and cone specific genes blue opsin, and two of the cone transducin subunits, Gnat2 and Gnb3. In addition, we identified 5 novel transcripts that are targeted by NR2E3. While mislocalization of proteins between rods and cones was not observed, we did observe diminished concentration of GNB1 protein in adult Nr2e3(rd7/rd7) retinas. These studies identified novel transcriptional pathways that are potentially targeted by Nr2e3 in the retina and specifically demonstrate a novel role for NR2E3 in regulating genes involved in phototransduction.|Animals[MESH]|Disease Models, Animal[MESH]|Eye Proteins/metabolism[MESH]|Gene Expression Regulation, Developmental/*physiology[MESH]|Light Signal Transduction/*genetics[MESH]|Mice[MESH]|Mice, Mutant Strains[MESH]|Orphan Nuclear Receptors[MESH]|Photoreceptor Cells, Vertebrate/*metabolism[MESH]|Receptors, Cytoplasmic and Nuclear/*genetics[MESH]|Retina/growth & development/metabolism[MESH]|Retinal Degeneration/*genetics/metabolism/physiopathology[MESH]|Transcription Factors/physiology[MESH] |
