Atria and ventricles exhibit distinct molecular profiles that produce structural and functional differences between the two cardiac compartments. However, factors that determine these differences remain largely undefined. Cardiomyocyte-specific COUP-TFII ablation produces ventricularized atria that exhibit ventricle-like action potentials, increased cardiomyocyte size, and development of extensive T-tubules. Changes in atrial characteristics are accompanied by alterations of 2584 genes, in which 81% of them were differentially expressed between atria and ventricles, suggesting that a major function of myocardial COUP-TFII is to determine the atrial identity. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays using E13.5 atria identified classic atrial-ventricular identity genes Tbx5, Hey2, Irx4, MLC2v, MLC2a and MLC1a, among many other cardiac genes, as potential COUP-TFII direct targets. Collectively, our results reveal that COUP-TFII confers the atrial identity through direct binding and modulating expression of a broad spectrum of genes that have an impact on atrial development and function.
