Genomic repeats coordinate macroscopic gene function and expression

ABSTRACT: Despite abundant distribution of repetitive elements, the roles they have been coopted in mammalian genomes are insufficiently characterized. Here we reveal a pervasive role for genic repeat in shaping macroscopic gene function and expression in both human and mouse. Specifically, genes enriched in SINE, L1 and simple repeat produce proteins with functions in distinct categories. To maintain/regulate the homeostatic expression of gene with diversified functions, SINE and L1 are targeted by different classes of transcriptional regulators and also show a nonrandom genomic and nuclear distribution, with B1 in the nuclear interior and L1 in the nuclear and nucleolar peripheries. Abnormal expression of L1-enriched gene compromise proliferation of embryonic stem cells. Moreover, L1 transcripts tend to bind L1-enriched genes, transacting L1 DNA information and mainly function as transcriptional repressors. These results demonstrate that genomic repeats have subtly shaped the function of host-gene they embedded in, and provide a paradigm shift in understanding function of genomic “parasites” in their host-genome.

In-cell RNA secondary structure analysis of functional SINE transcripts

Project description:SINEUPs are long non-coding RNAs which contain a functionally crucial SINE repeat element and positively regulate target mRNA translation at post-transcription level. To study secondary (2D) structure of these functional SINE-derived RNAs, various SINEUP-GFP plasmids containing different mouse SINEB2 repeat elements or human SINE FRAM repeat were transfected along with sense EGFP plasmid in HEK293T/17 cells. Total RNA in transfected cells were probed at flexible regions with NAI-N3 reagent and icSHAPE (in-vivo click selective hydroxyl acylation and profiling experiment) libraries were prepared. To further understand the structure dynamics of SINE transcripts in subcellular locations, cells were fractionated in nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions after 24 h of transfection and fraction-specific icSHAPE libraries were constructed.

Cytoplasmic mRNA level upon 4.5SH KD

Project description:We demonstrate that Myodonta-clade-specific 4.5S RNAH (4.5SH), an abundant nuclear noncoding RNA that is highly homologous to the retrotransposon SINE B1, controls the expression of multiple genes containing the antisense insertion of SINE B1 The depletion of endogenous 4.5SH with antisense oligonucleotides changes the subcellular distribution of these target transcripts containing the antisense SINE B1 insertions.

5-Formylcytosine Landscapes of Human Preimplantation Embryos at Single-cell Resolution

Project description:The epigenetic regulation containing DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility have been extensively explored in human preimplantation development. However, the dynamic of demethylation in this crucial process remains largely unknown. In this study, we use CLEVER-seq to quantify the DNA 5-formylcytosine (5fC) level of human early embryos. The distribution of 5fC exhibits genomic region preference and are enriched in L1 and ERVK, subfamily of repeat element. Unlike in mice, the paired pronuclei presents inconsistent 5fC level although the male pronuclei experiences stronger demethylation. And the centre of 5fC shows less accessible genome especially in proximal region. Collectively, our work offers new insight into the understanding of the complex demethylation in early human embryo development.

B2 SINE expression during MHV68 infecton

Project description:Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are retrotransposons evolutionarily derived from endogenous RNA Polymerase III RNAs. Though SINE elements have undergone exaptation into gene regulatory elements, how transcribed SINE RNA impacts transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation is largely unknown. This is partly due to a lack of information regarding which of the loci have transcriptional potential. Here, we present an approach (short interspersed nuclear element sequencing, SINE-seq), which selectively profiles RNA Polymerase III-derived SINE RNA, thereby identifying transcriptionally active SINE loci. Applying SINE-seq to monitor murine B2 SINE expression during a gammaherpesvirus infection revealed transcription from 28,270 SINE loci, with ~50% of active SINE elements residing within annotated RNA Polymerase II loci. Furthermore, B2 RNA can form intermolecular RNA-RNA interactions with complementary mRNAs, leading to nuclear retention of the targeted mRNA via a mechanism involving p54nrb. These findings illuminate a pathway for the selective regulation of mRNA export during stress via retrotransposon activation.

SIRT7 tethering of L1 elements to the nuclear lamina mediates their transcriptional repression

Project description:Long interspersed elements-1 (LINE-1, L1) are retrotransposons that hold the capacity of selfpropagation in the genome with potential mutagenic outcomes. How somatic cells restrict L1 activity and how this process becomes dysfunctional during aging and in cancer cells is poorly understood. L1s are enriched at lamin associated domains, heterochromatic regions of the nuclear periphery. Whether this association is necessary for their repression has been elusive. Here we show that the sirtuin family member SIRT7 participates in the epigenetic transcriptional repression of L1 genome-wide in both mouse and human cells. SIRT7 depletion leads to increased L1 expression and retrotransposition. Mechanistically, we identify a novel interplay between SIRT7 and Lamin A/C in L1 repression. Our results demonstrate that SIRT7-mediated H3K18 deacetylation regulates L1 expression by promoting L1 association with elements of the nuclear lamina. The failure of such activity might contribute to the observed genome instability and compromised viability in SIRT7 knockout mice. Overall, our results reveal a novel function of SIRT7 on chromatin organization by mediating the anchoring of L1 to the nuclear envelope, and a new mechanism by which the nuclear lamina maintains genome integrity.

Persistent accumulation of unrepaired DNA damage in rat cortical neurons: nuclear organization and ChIP-seq analysis of damaged DNA

Project description:We investigated the nuclear topography, organization and genome-wide gH2AX distribution of unrepaired DNA in rat cortical neurons 15 dyas upon X-Ray ionizing adiation (4Gy). Unrepaired DNA is confined in persistent DNA damage foci which would help preserving genome integrity. ChIp-seq analysis revealed a number of genomic regions enriched in gH2AX. Some of these regions are in close proximity to genes encoding essential proteins for neuronal function and human neurodegenerative disorders.

In-cell structure analysis of antisense Gadd45α SINEB2-a deletion mutants

Project description:SINEUPs are SINE repeat element containig long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs)which positively regulate target mRNA translation at post-transcription level. SINE RNA region is crucial for SINEUP function. To analyze the effect of sequence deletion on RNA secondary structure of SINEB2 RNA derived from mouse natural antisense lncRNA to Gadd45α gene, RNA structure of four deletion mutants were chemically probed inside cells. For this, different structure mutants and target EGFP mRNA plasmids were co-transfected in HEK293 cells and icSHAPE libraries were prepared.

The SINEB1 Element in the Long Non-coding RNA Malat1 is Necessary for TDP-43 Proteostasis

Project description:Transposable elements (TEs) comprise a large proportion of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). Here we employed CRISPR to delete a short interspersed nuclear element (SINE) in Malat1, a cancer-associated lncRNA, to investigate its significance in cellular physiology. We show that Malat1 with a SINE deletion forms diffuse nuclear speckles and is frequently translocated to the cytoplasm. SINE-deleted cells exhibit an activated unfolded protein response and PKR and markedly increased DNA damage and apoptosis caused by dysregulation of TDP-43 localization and formation of cytotoxic inclusions. TDP-43 binds stronger to Malat1 without the SINE and is likely ”hijacked” by cytoplasmic Malat1 to the cytoplasm, resulting in the depletion of nuclear TDP-43 and redistribution of TDP-43 binding to repetitive element transcripts and mRNAs encoding mitotic and nuclear-cytoplasmic regulators. The SINE promotes Malat1 nuclear retention by facilitating Malat1 binding to HNRNPK, a protein that drives RNA nuclear retention, potentially through direct interactions of the SINE with KHDRBS1 and TRA2A, which bind to HNRNPK. Losing these RNA-protein interactions due to the SINE deletion likely creates more available TDP-43 binding sites on Malat1 and subsequent TDP-43 aggregation. These results highlight the significance of lncRNA TEs in TDP-43 proteostasis with potential implications in both cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.
