Abstract

Transcriptional regulation plays an essential role in the self-renewal and differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). However, how external signals disrupt the self-renewal regulatory network and further drive hESC differentiation remains largely unknown. Here, we found the immune regulative protein, gamma-interferon-inducible protein 16 (IFI16) was involved in the regulation of both self-renewal and differentiation gene expression during hESC trilineage specification through interaction with p53. IFI16 expression levels were upregulated through JNK activation. IFI16 knockdown delayed the downregulation of self-renewal gene expression and suppressed the upregulation of differentiation gene expression, while IFI16 overexpression accelerated trilineage specification. Furthermore, IFI16 stabilized p53-binding in the genome through IFI16-p53 interaction and differentially regulated self-renewal and differentiation gene expression. Together, our results suggest a particular role of IFI16 in differential gene expression regulation during trilineage specification of hESCs in a manner that is dependent on the genome-wide profile of p53-binding directed by IFI16-p53 interaction.
