H3K36 methylation and the chromodomain protein Eaf3 are required for proper co-transcriptional spliceosome assembly

ABSTRACT: In the eukaryotic cell, spliceosomes assemble onto pre-mRNA cotranscriptionally. The fact that spliceosome assembly takes place in the context of a dynamic chromatin environment suggests that the state of the chromatin may affect splicing. The molecular details and mechanisms through which chromatin regulates RNA splicing, however, are still unclear. Here, we show a widespread role for the histone methyltransferase Set2 and its histone modification, H3K36 methylation, in pre-mRNA splicing through high-throughput sequencing. Moreover, we find that the effect of H3K36 methylation on pre-mRNA splicing is not dependent on changes in RNA polymerase II elongation, but are driven by the chromodomain protein Eaf3. We find that Eaf3 is recruited to intron-containing genes and that Eaf3 physically interacts with the splicing factor Prp45. Eaf3 acts with Prp45 and Prp19 after formation of the pre-catalytic B complex around the time of splicing activation revealing the step in splicing that is regulated by H3K36 methylation. These studies support a model whereby H3K36 facilitates recruitment of an “adapter protein” to support efficient, constitutive splicing.

CDK11 phosphorylates SF3B1 and is essential for constitutive splicing (ChIP-seq)

Project description:Pre-mRNA splicing is a highly regulated process catalyzing intron excision by spliceosome. Spliceosome activation is a major control step requiring dramatic protein and RNA rearrangements leading to a catalytically active complex. Prior research has linked hyperphosphorylation of SF3B1, a subunit of U2 snRNP, with spliceosome activation and catalytically active spliceosome, rendering a relevant kinase a key player for pre-mRNA splicing. Here we use OTS964, the first potent inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 11 (CDK11), to show rapid and selective dephosphorylation of SF3B1 on threonines required for spliceosome activation. CDK11 associates with SF3B1 and its inhibition causes massive intron retention, block in precatalytic spliceosome complex B to activated spliceosome complex Bact transition and accumulation of non-functional spliceosomes on pre-mRNA and chromatin. These studies reveal crucial regulatory role of CDK11 in human pre-mRNA splicing and define the compound OTS964 as a quality chemical biology probe for CDK11.

Proteins that co-purify with tandem affinity-purified PRC5 in Trypanosoma brucei

Project description:The project was to determine the role of a trypanosomatid protein, termed PRC5, in pre-mRNA splicing. PRC5 has no homologs in model organisms but was recurrently co-purified with known splicing factors in Trypanosoma brucei. To determine interacting proteins, PRC5 was C-terminally TAP-tagged (we used the PTP tag) and tandem affinity-purified, and co-purifying proteins identified after separation by SDS-PAGE and in-gel trypsin digest by LC/MS/MS. Many of the enriched proteins were known splicing factors, and sucrose gradient sedimentation identified a complex of five subunits, termed PRP19-related complex or PRC.

Unique and Shared Roles for Histone H3K36 Methylation States in Transcription Regulation Functions

Project description:Set2 co-transcriptionally methylates lysine 36 of histone H3 (H3K36), producing mono-, di-, and trimethylation (H3K36me1/2/3). These modifications recruit or repel chromatin effector proteins important for transcriptional fidelity, mRNA splicing, and DNA repair. However, it was not known whether the different methylation states of H3K36 have distinct biological functions. Here, we use engineered forms of Set2 that produce different lysine methylation states to identify unique and shared functions for H3K36 modifications. Although H3K36me1/2 and H3K36me3 are functionally redundant in many SET2 deletion phenotypes, we found that H3K36me3 has a unique function related to Bur1 kinase activity and FACT (facilitates chromatin transcription) complex function. Further, during nutrient stress, either H3K36me1/2 or H3K36me3 represses high levels of histone acetylation and cryptic transcription that arises from within genes. Our findings uncover the potential for the regulation of diverse chromatin functions by different H3K36 methylation states.

Stalled spliceosomes are a signal for RNAi-mediated genome defense

Project description:Using the yeast Cryptococcus neoformans, we describe a mechanism by which transposons are initially targeted for RNAi-mediated genome defense. We show that intron-containing mRNA precursors template siRNA synthesis. We identify a Spliceosome-Coupled And Nuclear RNAi (SCANR) complex required for siRNA synthesis and demonstrate that it physically associates with the spliceosome. We find that RNAi target transcripts are distinguished by suboptimal introns and abnormally high occupancy on spliceosomes. Functional investigations demonstrate that the stalling of mRNA precursors on spliceosomes is required for siRNA accumulation. Lariat debranching enzyme is also necessary for siRNA production, suggesting a requirement for processing of stalled splicing intermediates. We propose that recognition of mRNA precursors by the SCANR complex is in kinetic competition with splicing, thereby promoting siRNA production from transposon transcripts stalled on spliceosomes. Disparity in the strength of gene expression signals encoded by transposons versus genes offers an avenue for the evolution of genome defense. Small RNA profile of wild-type Cryptococcus neoformans was determined by deep sequencing using the Illumina SBS platform

CDK11 regulates pre-mRNA splicing by phosphorylation of SF3B1

Project description:RNA splicing, the process of intron removal from pre-mRNA, is essential for the regulation of gene expression. It is controlled by the spliceosome, a megadalton RNA-protein complex that assembles de novo on each pre-mRNA intron via an ordered assembly of intermediate complexes. Spliceosome activation is a major control step requiring dramatic protein and RNA rearrangements leading to a catalytically active complex. Splicing factor 3B subunit 1 (SF3B1) protein, a subunit of the U2 snRNP, is phosphorylated during spliceosome activation, but the responsible kinase has not been identified. Here we show that cyclin-dependent kinase 11 (CDK11) associates with SF3B1 and phosphorylates threonine residues at its N-terminus during spliceosome activation. The phosphorylation is important for association of SF3B1 with U5 and U6 snRNAs in spliceosome activated Bact complex and it can be blocked by OTS964, a potent and selective inhibitor of CDK11. CDK11 inhibition prevents spliceosomal transition from the precatalytic complex B to the activated complex Bact and leads to widespread intron retention and accumulation of non-functional spliceosomes on pre-mRNAs and chromatin. We characterize OTS964 as a quality chemical biology probe for CDK11 and demonstrate a central role of CDK11 in spliceosome assembly and splicing regulation.

The faint sausage gene encodes a subunit of the spliceosome-activating Prp19 complex and is required for tracheal branching morphogenesis in Drosophila

Project description:Morphogenesis requires the dynamic regulation of gene expression, including transcription, mRNA maturation and translation. Dysfunction of general components of the splicing machinery can cause surprisingly specific phenotypes, but the basis for these cell-type specific effects is not clear. Here we show that the faint sausage (fas) locus, implicated in epithelial morphogenesis and previously reported to encode a secreted immunoglobulin domain protein, in fact encodes a subunit of the Prp19 complex that is essential for efficient pre-mRNA splicing. Loss of zygotic fas function impairs the efficiency of splicing, associated with widespread retention of introns in mature mRNAs and dramatic changes in gene expression. Surprisingly, despite these general effects, zygotic fas mutants show specific defects in tracheal cell migration. Zygotic fas function becomes essential during late embryogenesis when maternally supplied splicing factors decline. We propose that tracheal branching, which relies on dynamic changes in gene expression, is particularly sensitive for efficient spliceosome function. Our results provide an entry point to study functions of splicing during organogenesis and provide a better understanding of specific disease phenotypes associated with mutations in general splicing factors.

Chromatin immunoprecipitation of wild type, SET2 deletion, Rco1 PHD domain deletion and Eaf3 chromodomain deletion yeast using anti-acetyl-histone H4

Project description:Nucleosomes must be deacetylated behind elongating RNA polymerase II to prevent cryptic initiation of transcription within the coding region. RNA polymerase II signals for deacetylation through methylation of histone H3 lysine 36 (H3K36) which provides the recruitment signal for the Rpd3S deacetylase complex. Recognition of methyl-H3K36 by Rpd3S requires the chromodomain of its Eaf3 subunit. Paradoxically, Eaf3 is also a subunit of the NuA4 acetyltransferase complex yet NuA4 does not recognize methyl H3K36 nucleosomes. We found that methyl H3K36 nucleosome recognition by Rpd3S also requires the PHD domain of its Rco1 subunit. Thus, the coupled chromo and PHD domains of Rpd3S specifies recognition of the methyl H3K36 mark; demonstrating the first combinatorial domain requirement within a protein complex to read a specific histone code.
