INTRODUCTION!
Gastrulation is the complex process during embryogenesis by which pluripotent
epiblast cells give rise to the three primary germ layers: endoderm, ectoderm,
and mesoderm. Despite extensive investigation of pre-gastrulation and
gastrulation stages of mammalian development, relatively little is known about
the regulatory network that controls these critical stages of development. Indeed,
the known signaling events and master regulators (MRs) - genes that serve as
central control points of the regulatory network for gastrulation - have generally
been identified by mutational analyses and reverse-genetic approaches. To date,
an unbiased methodology that is not dependent upon prior knowledge from the
literature has not been used to identify a regulatory network (ʻinteractomeʼ) or
master regulators. Here we present a novel and innovative systems-based
approach for modeling the genetic regulatory network for gastrulation.!
!
1. Constructing the first epiblast stem cell interactome Epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs) are a pluripotent cell type that are
derived from (and resemble) pre-gastrulation mouse epiblast
tissue in vivo. Hence, we used ARACNe (Algorithm for the
accurate reconstruction of cellular networks) to construct an
unbiased interactome for mouse EpiSCs, which we
hypothesized can be used to model the regulatory network for
the epiblast at pre-gastrulation and gastrulation stages. !

2. Systematic discovery of regulatory events of mouse epiblast
during gastrulation. We used MARINa and FIRE algorithms to interrogate the EpiSC interactome with
gene expression signatures corresponding to mouse epiblast tissue of different
stages of gastrulation in vivo. MARINa and FIRE identify candidate MR genes and
active RNA/DNA binding sites that putatively regulate the transition between two
states, represented by the expression signatures. !

Our preliminary data demonstrate that the EpiSC interactome will provide a basis for
modeling the pre-gastrulation epiblast and that we can identify candidate MRs by
interrogating the EpiSC interactome with signatures of pre-gastrulation and
gastrulation stages. Functional analyses of these candidate MRs and active motifs
will include validation of transcriptional targets by ChIP, and loss- and gain-offunction experiments in both EpiSCs and in vivo.!
