Project description:This experiment uses iCLIP to identify the binding pattern of the spliceosomal protein PRPF8 on RNA. The data shows that PRPF8 binds strongly and specifically in the region 12 to 14nt upstream of 5' splice sites (5ss). Due to PRPF8's role in the formation of the catalytically active spliceosome, this data can be used as a readout of 5ss selection. Here, we performed iCLIP on HeLa cells treated with control or EIF4A3 siRNA, with 4 replicate samples per condition and eIF4A3 protein levels reduced ~50% in knockdown. We investigated the role of the exon junction complex (EJC) in suppressing 5ss that are reconstituted at the junction of two canonical exons (RS-5ss) - selection of these splice sites would result in recursive splicing of canonical exons. We plotted the crosslink sites of reads that span an exon-exon junction, seperating reads that span RS-5ss from those that do not. We found that reads that span an RS-5ss are enriched at the 12-14nt window associated with 5ss selection, while reads that span other exon-exon junctions are not enriched. This effect is magnified greatly by knockdown of eIF4A3. The results indicate that RS-5ss can be used by the spliceosome, but that this process is usually repressed by the EJC. This data is evidence of recursive splicing of canonical exons and the role of the EJC in repressing recursive splicing.

Project description:The studies of spliceosomal interactions are challenging due to their dynamic nature. Here we developed spliceosome iCLIP, which immunoprecipitates SmB along with snRNPs and auxiliary RNA binding proteins (RBPs) to simultaneously map the spliceosomal binding to human snRNAs and pre-mRNAs. This identified 9 distinct regions on pre-mRNAs, which overlap with position-dependent binding patterns of 15 RBPs. Using spliceosome iCLIP, we additionally identified >50,000 branchpoints (BPs) that have canonical features, unlike those identified by RNA-seq. The iCLIP BPs generally overlap with the computationally predicted BPs, and alternative BPs are associated with extended regions of structurally accessible RNA. We find that the position and strength of BPs defines the binding patterns of SF3 and U2AF complexes, whereas the RNA structure around BPs affects the sensitivity of exons to perturbation of these complexes. Our findings introduce spliceosome iCLIP as a new method for transcriptomic studies of BPs and splicing mechanisms.

Project description:Alternative splicing is a critical determinant of genome complexity and by implication, is assumed to engender proteomic diversity. This notion has not been experimentally tested in a targeted, quantitative manner. Here, we have developed an integrative approach to ask whether dynamic perturbations in mRNA splicing patterns that follow depletion of the core spliceosome factor PRPF8 alter the composition of the proteome. We integrate RNA-sequencing (to comprehensively report intron retention, differential transcript usage and gene expression) with a newly developed data-independent acquisition (DIA) method, SWATH-MS (Sequential Window Acquisition of all THeoretical spectra – mass spectrometry), to capture an unbiased and quantitative snapshot of constitutive and alternative splicing events at the protein level. Whereas intron retention is accompanied by decreased protein abundance, dynamic alterations in differential transcript usage and gene expression alter protein abundance proportionally to transcript levels. Our findings exemplify how RNA splicing exerts a pervasive effect linking isoform expression in the human transcriptome with proteomic diversity, and provide a toolkit for studying its perturbation in human diseases.

Project description:The carboxy-terminus of the spliceosomal protein PRPF8, which regulates the RNA helicase Brr2, is a hotspot for mutations causing retinitis pigmentosa-type 13, with unclear role in human splicing and tissue-specificity mechanism. We used patient induced pluripotent stem cells-derived cells, carrying the heterozygous PRPF8 c.6926A>C (p.H2309P) mutation to demonstrate retinal-specific endophenotypes comprising photoreceptor loss, apical-basal polarity and ciliary defects. Comprehensive molecular, transcriptomic, and proteomic analyses revealed a role of the PRPF8/Brr2 regulation in 5’-splice site (5’SS) selection by spliceosomes, for which disruption impaired alternative splicing and weak/suboptimal 5’SS selection, and enhanced cryptic splicing, predominantly in ciliary and retinal-specific transcripts. Altered splicing efficiency, nuclear speckles organisation, and PRPF8 interaction with U6 snRNA, caused accumulation of active spliceosomes and poly(A)+ mRNAs in unique splicing clusters located at the nuclear periphery of photoreceptors. Collectively these elucidate the role of PRPF8/Brr2 regulatory mechanisms in splicing and the molecular basis of retinal disease, informing therapeutic approaches.

Project description:We identified which mRNAs are dependent on the splicing factors SNW1 or PRPF8. These factors were depleted in HeLa cells by RNAi, and the levels of intronic reads in mRNAs was compared to control RNAi. Intronic reads from polyA containing RNAs from HeLa cells and mSnw1-LAP 'rescued' cells, both depleted for endogenous SNW1, were compared. Furthermore, intronic reads from polyA containing RNAs from HeLa cells depleted for SNW1 or PRPF8 were compared to control depleted HeLa cells.

Project description:Mutations in the carboxy terminal of the core spliceosome factor PRPF8 cause autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (RP) 13. Comprehensive cellular, biochemical, and molecular investigations of iPSC-derived retinal organoids, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and kidney organoids from four patients carrying the pathogenic PRPF8 RP type 13 c.6926A>C (p.H2309P) heterozygous missense mutation, revealed retinal tissue-specific effects including lower splicing specificity, ciliary abnormalities, altered apical-basal polarity, rod degeneration and loss of photoreceptors. The p.H2309P mutation affected the 5’ splice site recognition by PRPF8 of transcripts encoding ciliary proteins, altered spliceosome kinetics and organisation of nuclear speckles as well as PRPF8 binding to spliceosomal U6 snRNAs and snoRNAs, leading to accumulation of unspliced poly A+ mRNAs specifically in RPE cells and retinal organoids. Together these data provide the most comprehensive characterisation of splicing factor causing RP disease, providing molecular insights into the tissue specificity of pathomechanisms and informing future therapeutic approaches.
