New publication @chymkowitchlab.bsky.social about how #IRX3 regulates adipocyte fate by influencing #epigenetic reprogramming, through modulating #SUMOylation and #chromatin remodeling, impacting fat storage and mesenchymal identity while suppressing osteogenesis.
Published in @natcomms.nature.com
IRX3 buffers the SUMOylation to promote adipogenesis and block osteogenesis. IRX3 loss boosts SUMOylation, inhibits PPARγ, and pushes cells toward bone fate, which is reversible with SUMOylation inhibition.
IRX3 is an epigenetic gatekeeper.

We were interested in trying to understand the mechanisms by which cellular stress regulates #TDP43 and how these pathways may contribute to sporadic forms of neurodegeneration including #ALS and #FTD. We hypothesized that #SUMOylation may play a role.
🔬Here’s what we found:
New publication: These findings provide evidence that #SUMOylation is essential for fat accumulation in vivo.

White line marks the proximal gonad, most proximal oocyte (oo) and spermatheca (sp). Right: Model for SET-26 functional dependence on sumoylation. In homeostasis, SET-26 and its interactors bind H3K4me3 marks to regulate gene expression. Unbalanced sumoylation of SET-26 disrupts its reader function by decreasing its binding to H3K4me3 marks. Consequently, germline transcription is perturbed.
