Transcription profiling of mouse CAD cells transfected with miR-124a-2 reveals the microRNA miR-124 Promotes neuronal differentiation by triggering brain-specific alternative pre-mRNA splicing

ABSTRACT: Both microRNAs and alternative pre-mRNA splicing have been implicated in the development of the nervous system (NS), but functional interactions between these two pathways are poorly understood. We demonstrate that the neuron-specific microRNA miR-124a directly targets PTBP1/PTB/hnRNPI mRNA, which encodes a global repressor of alternative pre-mRNA splicing in non-neuronal cells. Among the targets of PTBP1 is a critical cassette exon in the pre-mRNA of PTBP2/nPTB/brPTB, an NS-enriched PTBP1 homolog. When this exon is skipped, PTBP2 mRNA is subject to nonsense-mediated decay. During neuronal differentiation, miR-124a reduces PTBP1 levels leading to the accumulation of correctly spliced PTBP2 mRNA and a dramatic increase in PTBP2 protein. These events culminate in the transition from non-NS to NS-specific alternative splicing patterns. We also present evidence that miR-124a plays a key role in the differentiation of progenitor cells to mature neurons. Thus, miR-124a promotes NS development at least in part by regulating an intricate network of NS-specific alternative splicing. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression of CAD cells over-expressing miR-124a-2. Experiment Overall Design: Expression data from CAD cells transfected with plasmid expressing miR-124a-2.

Polypyrimidine Tract Binding Proteins PTBP1 and PTBP2 Interact with Distinct Proteins Under Splicing Conditions

Project description:RNA binding proteins play an important role in regulating alternative pre-mRNA splicing and in turn cellular gene expression. Polypyrimidine tract binding proteins, PTBP1 and PTBP2, are paralogous RNA binding proteins that play a critical role in the process of neuronal differentiation and maturation; changes in the concentration of PTBP proteins during neuronal development direct splicing changes in many transcripts that code for proteins critical for neuronal differentiation. How the two related proteins regulate different sets of neuronal exons is unclear. The distinct splicing activities of PTBP1 and PTBP2 can be recapitulated in an in vitro splicing system with the differentially regulated N1 exon of the c-src pre-mRNA. Here, we conducted experiments under these in vitro splicing conditions to identify PTBP1 and PTBP2 interacting partner proteins.

An Alternative Splicing Event Amplifies Evolutionary Differences Between Vertebrates

Project description:Alternative splicing (AS) generates extensive transcriptomic and proteomic complexity. However, the functions of species- and lineage-specific splice variants are largely unknown. Here, we show that mammalian-specific skipping of exon 9 of PTBP1 alters its splicing regulatory activities and affects the inclusion levels of numerous exons. During neurogenesis, skipping of exon 9 reduces PTBP1 repressive activity so as to facilitate activation of a brain-specific AS program. Engineered skipping of the orthologous exon in chicken cells induces a large number of mammalian-like AS changes in PTBP1 target exons. These results thus reveal that a single exon skipping event in an RNA binding regulator directs numerous AS changes between species. The results further suggest that these changes contributed to evolutionary differences in the formation of vertebrate nervous systems. This study contains two sets of samples: (Set 1) mRNA profiling of human 293 cells subjected to four different conditions in two biological replicates: non-targetting control siRNA, PTBP1 and PTBP2 siRNA, PTBP1 and PTBP2 siRNA with overexpression of full-length human PTBP1, PTBP1 and PTBP2 siRNA with overexpression of exon-excluded human PTBP1. (Set 2) mRNA profiling of chicken DT40 cells with 3 genotypes in two bioligcal replicates: wildtype cells, cells with PTBP1 exon 8 (orthologous to human PTBP1 exon 9) deleted in one allele, and cells with PTBP1 exon 8 deleted in both alleles.

Splicing analyses of 46C mNPCs following PTBP depletion

Project description:PTBP1 and PTBP2 control alternative splicing programs during neuronal development, but the cellular functions of most PTBP1/2-regulated isoforms remain unknown. We show that PTBP1 guides developmental gene expression by regulating the transcription factor Pbx1. We identify exons that are differentially spliced when mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) differentiate into neuronal progenitor cells (NPCs) and neurons, and transition from PTBP1 to PTBP2 expression. We define those exons controlled by PTBP1 in ESCs and NPCs by RNA-seq analysis after PTBP1 depletion and PTBP1 crosslinking-immunoprecipitation. We find that PTBP1 represses Pbx1 exon 7 and the expression of its neuronal isoform Pbx1a in ESC. Using CRISPR-Cas9 to delete regulatory elements for exon 7, we induce Pbx1a expression in ESCs, finding that this activates transcription of specific neuronal genes including known Pbx1 targets. Thus PTBP1 controls the activity of Pbx1 and suppresses its neuronal transcriptional program prior to differentiation. 46C mESCs were differentiated in mNPCs. The mNPCs were treated with 10 nM control, Ptbp1, Ptbp2, or Ptbp1 and Ptbp2 siRNAs for 48 hours. The knockdowns were performed using 2 independent sets of siRNAs. Poly-A RNA was isolated for RNA-sequencing and splicing analyses.

Knockdown of PTBP3 in human K562 cells

Project description:PTBP1 is a widely expressed RNA binding protein known to play roles in regulation of alternative pre-mRNA splicing and other post-transcriptional processes. The PTBP2 paralog is expressed in neurons and switching from expression of PTBP1 to PTBP2 regulates a subset of alternative splicing events during neuronal differentiation. The PTBP3 paralog is conserved across vertebrates and is expressed highly in cells of the hematopoietic system. However, the unique non-redundant roles of PTBP3 are currently unclear. We therefore tested the transcriptomic consequences of knocking down PTBP3 in human K562 erythroleukemia cells. K562 cells were treated with two separate siRNAs (Rd5 and Rd9) targeted against all isoforms of PTBP3 or with a control non-specific siRNA (C2). Triplicate samples were used for each of the three experimental conditions. Transcriptome analysis used the Affymetrix HJAY array, allowing detection of changes in alternative splicing and in transcript levels. Despite at least 75% PTBP3 depletion, as monitored by western blot, only modest changes at the transcriptome level were observed.

Coordinated regulation of neuronal mRNA steady-state levels through developmentally controlled intron retention

Project description:Differentiated cells acquire unique structural and functional traits through coordinated expression of lineage-specific genes. An extensive battery of genes encoding components of the synaptic transmission machinery and specialized cytoskeletal proteins is activated during neurogenesis, but the underlying regulation is not well understood. Here we show that genes encoding critical presynaptic proteins are transcribed at a detectable level in both neurons and non-neuronal cells. However, in non-neuronal cells, the splicing of 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal introns within these genes is repressed by polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (Ptbp1). This inhibits the export of incompletely spliced mRNAs to the cytoplasm and triggers their nuclear degradation. Clearance of these intron-containing transcripts occurs independently of the nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) pathway but requires components of the nuclear RNA surveillance machinery including the nuclear pore-associated protein Tpr and components of the exosome complex. When Ptbp1 expression decreases during neuronal differentiation, the regulated introns are spliced out thus allowing the accumulation of translation-competent mRNAs in the cytoplasm. We propose that this mechanism counters ectopic and precocious expression of functionally linked neuron-specific genes and ensures their coherent activation in the appropriate developmental context.
