An improved Erk biosensor reveals oscillatory Erk dynamics driven by mitotic erasure during early development

Abstract: Erk signaling dynamics elicit distinct cellular responses in a variety of contexts. The early zebrafish embryo is an ideal model to explore the role of Erk signaling dynamics in vivo, as a gradient of activated diphosphorylated Erk (P-Erk) is induced by Fgf signaling at the blastula embryonic margin. Here we describe an improved Erk-specific biosensor which we term modified Erk Kinase Translocation Reporter (modErk-KTR). We demonstrate the utility of this biosensor in vitro and in developing zebrafish and Dros… Show more

“…Of note, the morphological rescue obtained is matched by a moderate reduction in ERK activity registered in late (9-11/12hpf) and very early (5.30/6hpf) stages preceding the morphological rescue as observed respectively via live-and AB-FRET in Teen embryos and confirmed by pERK immunoblots on whole-embroys extracts. Together with additional evidence in other mice and fish RASopathies models, including a RAF and SOS1-dependent NS mice models (Pagani et al, 2009;Chen et al, 2010;Holter et al, 2019), BRAF-dependent CFC and NS fish models (Anastasaki et al, 2009(Anastasaki et al, , 2012Bonetti et al, 2014) as well as a NS model in Drosophila (Oishi et al, 2006), and recent developments in FRET-based in vivo applications (Sari et al, 2018;Patel et al, 2019;Wong et al, 2019;Wilcockson et al, 2022), our data support the usefulness of animal models as well as reporter systems to advance pre-clinical applications in the field of RASopathies.…”

“…It is appreciated that M-phase CDK activity (CDK1/CyclinB) can induce ERK-KTR responses [84][85][86] . We do not expect this non-specific behavior to impact our findings because M-phase is a relatively short time period in the cell cycle.…”

“…RNAscope ISH ( Wang et al, 2012a ) was carried out using the RNAscope Multiplex Fluorescent v2 system as described previously ( Wilcockson et al, 2022 preprint). The fgf3 probes (850161-C4, ACDBio; gift from C. Hill, The Francis Crick Institute, UK) were detected by incubating the embryos with Multiplex FL V2 HRP-C4 for 15 min at 40°C, followed by incubation with tyramide (Sigma-Aldrich, T2879) coupled to fluorescein-NHS ester (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 46410) for 25 min in the dark at room temperature.…”
