In oligodendrocytes of the vertebrate central nervous system a complex network of transcriptional regulators is required to ensure correct and timely myelination of neuronal axons. Here we identify Zfp276, the only mammalian ZAD-domain containing zinc finger protein, as a transcriptional regulator of oligodendrocyte differentiation and central myelination downstream of Sox10. In the central nervous system, Zfp276 is exclusively expressed in mature oligodendrocytes. Oligodendroglial deletion of Zfp276 led to strongly reduced expression of myelin genes in the early postnatal mouse spinal cord. Retroviral overexpression of Zfp276 in cultured oligodendrocyte precursor cells induced precocious expression of maturation markers and myelin genes, further supporting its role in oligodendroglial differentiation. On the molecular level, Zfp276 directly binds to and represses Sox10-dependent gene regulatory regions of immaturity factors and functionally interacts with the transcriptional repressor Zeb2 to enable fast transition of oligodendrocytes to the myelinating stage. Graphical representation of the proposed pro-differentiating mechanism of Zfp276 in OLs. OPCs can differentiate toward mature OLs or are maintained in the OPC state in the presence of immaturity factors and inhibitors of myelination. Upon differentiation, OLs induce myelination-associated genes to facilitate proper myelination of neuronal axons. Both the genes related to OPC maintenance and those related to terminal differentiation are positively regulated by Sox10. Zfp276, in concert with Zeb2, is able to antagonize the Sox10-dependent activation of OPC-related genes by transcriptional repression of their gene regulatory regions, thereby shifting the scale toward OL differentiation and myelination.
