Project description:DNA Double-strand break (DSB) repair is critical for cell survival and genome integrity. Upon recognition of DSBs, repair proteins are transiently upregulated to facilitate repair through homologous recombination (HR) or non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). We present evidence that PRMT5 cooperates with pICln to function as a master epigenetic activator of DNA damage response (DDR) genes involved in HR, NHEJ, and G2 arrest (including RAD51, BRCA1, and BRCA2) to upregulate gene expression upon DNA damage. Contrary to the predominant role of PRMT5 as an epigenetic repressor, our results demonstrate that PRMT5 and pICln can activate gene expression, potentially independent of PRMT5’s obligate cofactor MEP50. Targeting PRMT5 or pICln hinders repair of DSBs in multiple cancer cell lines, and both PRMT5 and pICln expression positively correlates with DDR genes across 32 clinical cancer data sets. Thus, targeting PRMT5 or pICln may be explored in combination with radiation or chemotherapy for cancer treatment.

Project description:PRMT5 is a methyltransferase that catalyzes symmetric dimethylation of arginine residues in histones (H4R3, H3R8, H3R2, and H2AR3) to regulate transcription of target genes. While PRMT5 is generally considered an epigenetic repressor, recent evidence from our lab and others demonstrate that PRMT5 also functions as an epigenetic activator. Although in vitro biochemical studies suggest that the PRMT5 interacting proteins methylosome protein 50 (MEP50) and methylosome subunit pICln enhance PRMT5 enzymatic activity, how these interacting proteins cooperate with PRMT5 to regulate gene transcription in vivo remains to be elucidated. Here we perform RNA-seq analysis of prostate cancer cells 22Rv1 with knockdown of PRMT5, MEP50, and pICln, in order to elucidate how these proteins control transcriptome.

Project description:During the early steps of snRNP biogenesis, the Survival of Motor Neuron (SMN) complex acts together with the methylosome, an entity formed by the pICln protein, WD45 and the PRMT5 methyltransferase. To expand our understanding of pICln and SMN functional relationships in vivo, we performed a genetic analysis of an uncharacterized S. pombe pICLn homologue. Although not essential, the S. pombe ICln protein is important for optimal yeast cell growth. The human pICln gene complements the iclnM-bM-^HM-^F slow growth phenotype demonstrating that the identified SpICln sequence represents the bona fide human homolog. Consistent with the role inferred for human pICln using in vitro experiments, we found that the SpICln protein is required for optimal production of the spliceosomal snRNPs and for efficient splicing in vivo. Genetic interaction approaches demonstrate furthermore that modulation of ICln activity is unable to compensate for defects induced by SMN mutations, and reciprocally. Using a genome-wide approach and RT-PCR validation tests, we show also that splicing is altered differentially in iclnM-bM-^HM-^F cells. Our data are consistent with the emerging view that splice site selection and spliceosome kinetics is highly dependent on the concentration of core spliceosomal components.

Project description:Purpose: A time-course transcriptome study to identify probable GA-responsive genes in soybean embryonic axes during seed germination. Methods: Seeds were germinated in the presence or absence of 200 µM PBZ. Seeds were germinated in 28°C temperature and 12/12h photoperiod (dark/light) and harvested at 12, 24 and 36 hours after imbibition (HAI). Three biological replicates were performed. Results: Identification of GA-responsive genes during germination in Glycine max.

Project description:Protein Arginine Methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) regulates RNA splicing and transcription by symmetric dimethylation of arginine residues (Rme2s/SDMA) in many RNA binding proteins. However, the mechanism by which PRMT5 couples splicing to transcriptional output is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that a major function of PRMT5 activity is to promote chromatin escape of a novel, large class of mRNAs that we term Genomically Retained Incompletely Processed Polyadenylated Transcripts (GRIPPs). Using nascent and total transcriptomics, spike-in controlled fractionated cell transcriptomics, and total and fractionated cell proteomics, we show that PRMT5 inhibition and knockdown of the PRMT5 SNRP (Sm protein) adapter protein pICln (CLNS1A) —but not type I PRMT inhibition—leads to gross detention of mRNA, SNRPB, and SNRPD3 proteins on chromatin. Compared to most transcripts, these chromatin-trapped polyadenylated RNA transcripts have more introns, are spliced slower, and are enriched in detained introns. Using a combination of PRMT5 inhibition and inducible isogenic wildtype and arginine-mutant SNRPB, we show that arginine methylation of these snRNPs is critical for mediating their homeostatic chromatin and RNA interactions. Overall, we conclude that a major role for PRMT5 is in controlling transcript processing and splicing completion to promote chromatin escape and subsequent nuclear export.
