Project description:Human genetic studies have identified the neuronal RNA binding protein, Rbfox1, as a candidate gene for autism spectrum disorders. While Rbfox1 functions as a splicing regulator in the nucleus, it is also alternatively spliced to produce cytoplasmic isoforms. To investigate cytoplasmic Rbfox1, we knocked down Rbfox proteins in mouse neurons and rescued with cytoplasmic or nuclear Rbfox1. Transcriptome profiling showed that nuclear Rbfox1 rescued splicing changes induced by knockdown, whereas cytoplasmic Rbfox1 rescued changes in mRNA levels. iCLIP-seq of subcellular fractions revealed that in nascent RNA Rbfox1 bound predominantly to introns, while cytoplasmic Rbox1 bound to 3' UTRs. Cytoplasmic Rbfox1 binding increased target mRNA stability and translation, and overlapped significantly with miRNA binding sites. Cytoplasmic Rbfox1 target mRNAs were enriched in genes involved in cortical development and autism. Our results uncover a new Rbfox1 regulatory network and highlight the importance of cytoplasmic RNA metabolism to cortical development and disease. In this data set, we included the data from microarray experiments. We performed microarray analysis to profile gene expression and splicing changes in mouse hippocampal cultures (14 DIV) with Rbfox1 and Rbfox3 double knockdown by siRNAs. Before the treatment of siRNAs, the hippocampal cultures were treated with AraC to eliminate glial cells and co-cultured with cortical cultures to support the growth of neurons. Six samples were analyzed.

In this data set, we included the data from iCLIP-seq experiments. We performed iCLIP procedures to identify Rbfox1 binding in the cytoplasm. Cultured mouse forebrain neurons were irradiated with UV and a cytoplasmic fraction was purified for immunoprecipitation. An anti-Rbfox1 antibody was used to immunoprecipitate Rbfox1 target RNAs and an anti-Flag antibody was used as control. Two samples were analyzed.

In this data set, we included the data from RNA-seq experiments. We performed RNA-seq to profile gene expression and splicing changes. The expression levels of Rbfox1 and Rbfox3 in cultured mouse hippocampal neurons were reduced by siRNAs. The reduction of Rbfox1 and 3 was rescued by expression of cytoplasmic or nuclear Rbfox1 splice isoform. The gene expression and splicing profiles were compared between different treatments. Eight samples were analyzed.

Project description:Actin, spectrin, and associated proteins form a membrane-associated periodic skeleton (MPS) in neurons. The molecular composition and functions of the MPS remain incompletely understood. Here, we combined co-immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry analyses to identify candidate MPS-interacting proteins from cultured hippocampal neurons and adult mouse brains. In addition, we also used quantitative mass spectrometry analysis based on Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) isobaric labeling to determine how the expression levels of proteins are differentially regulated at the proteomic scale upon depletion of βII-spectrin, an important molecular component of the MPS. These results provide a systematic picture of the interactome of the MPS, and new insights into new functions of the MPS in neurons.

Project description:Transposable elements (TEs) and DNA repeats are commonly targeted by DNA and histone methylation to achieve epigenetic gene silencing. We isolated mutations in two Arabidopsis genes, CRT1 and CRH6, which cause de-repression of DNA-methylated genes and TEs, but no losses of DNA or histone methylation. CRT1 and CRH6 are members of the conserved Microrchidia (MORC) ATPase family, predicted to catalyze alterations in chromosome superstructure. The crt1 and crh6 mutants show decondensation of pericentromeric heterochromatin, increased interaction of pericentromeric regions with the rest of the genome, and transcriptional defects that are largely restricted to loci residing in pericentromeric regions. Knockdown of the single MORC homolog in Caenorhabditis elegans also impairs transgene silencing. We propose that the MORC ATPases are conserved regulators of gene silencing in eukaryotes. For Col wild type control and each of two T-DNA mutants, a single sample each of small RNA (sRNA), mRNA-Seq, 5'-methylcytosine DNA methylation (BS-Seq), ChIP H3K9me2 histone methylation, and ChIP H3 histone control. For each of two EMS mutants, and as controls, their respective backgrounds, two batches of single mRNA samples, with the first batch also having a single mRNA sample for a double EMS mutant.

Project description:Homeostatic scaling adjusts synaptic strength in response to persistent changes in neuronal network activity. This compensatory mechanism requires proteome remodeling accomplished via regulation of protein synthesis as well as degradation, but the global patterns of proteome remodeling and the underlying dynamics of individual proteins remain elusive. Here we used dynamic SILAC labeling in cultured hippocampal cells to identify proteins involved in homeostatic up- or down-scaling and to quantify their changes in synthesis and degradation as well as resulting changes in protein abundance or turnover. Our data demonstrate that a large fraction of the neuronal proteome is remodeled during homeostatic scaling. Most proteins were down-regulated by decreased synthesis or up-regulated by decreased degradation. Comparably fewer proteins showed increased synthesis or degradation rates. More than half of the quantified synaptic proteins were regulated, including pre- as well as postsynaptic proteins with diverse molecular functions.
