Histone deacetylase HDAC4/5 cooperates with cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) in the transcriptional regulation of daily sleep amount downstream of LKB1-SIK3 kinase cascade in mice. Here, we report a significant enrichment of the E-box motifs for the basic loop-helix-loop (bHLH) proteins near the CREB- and HDAC4-binding sites in the mouse genome. Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated expression of class I bHLH transcription factors, such as TCF4, TCF3, or TCF12, across the mouse brain neurons reduces the duration of rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) and non-REMS (NREMS).

Early B cell lymphopoiesis depends on E2A, Ebf1, Pax5 and Ikaros family members. In the present study, we used acute protein degradation in mice to identify direct target genes of these transcription factors in pro-B, small pre-B and immature B cells. E2A, Ebf1 and Pax5 predominantly function as transcriptional activators by inducing open chromatin at their target genes, have largely unique functions and are essential for early B cell maintenance.

Super-enhancer-associated transcription factor networks define cell identity in neuroblastoma (NB). Dysregulation of these transcription factors contributes to the initiation and maintenance of NB by enforcing early developmental identity states. We report that the class I basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor 4 (TCF4; also known as E2-2) is a critical NB dependency gene that significantly contributes to these identity states through heterodimerization with cell-identity-specific bHLH transcription factors.

Dynamic epigenomic reprogramming occurs during mammalian oocyte maturation and early development. However, the underlying transcription circuitry remains poorly characterized. By mapping cis-regulatory elements using H3K27ac, we identified putative enhancers in mouse oocytes and early embryos distinct from those in adult tissues, enabling global transitions of regulatory landscapes around fertilization and implantation.
