RNA-seq analysis dataset: Hippocampal tissues from Emx1-Cre;Auts2-flox/flox and Auts2-flox/flox mice at P14

ABSTRACT: Previous studies have revealed that AUTS2 regulates cytoskeletal organization as well as gene expression during prenatal brain development. Its involvement in controlling synapses, however, remains unclear. Here, we report the increased dendritic spine formation in Auts2 mutant mice as well as the primary cultured neurons from Auts2 mutant mice. To investigate the involvement of AUTS2 function in the regulation of gene expression, we performed transcriptome analysis. RNA-seq on total RNA from the hippocampal tissues of Emx1Cre/+;Auts2flox/flox homozygous conditional KO mice at P14 reveals changes in gene associated with brain development including synapse formation. These results suggest that AUTS2 regulates the expression of genes that are related to synapse formation/function, and some of which may be involved in spine number restriction. Aberrant expression of such synaptic genes may cause synaptic dysfunction in patients with AUTS2 mutations.

A mouse mutation that dysregulates neighboring Galnt17 and Auts2 genes is associated with phenotypes related to the human AUTS2 syndrome

Project description:AUTS2 was originally discovered as the gene disrupted by a translocation in human twins with Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), intellectual disability, and epilepsy. Since that initial finding, AUTS2-linked mutations and variants have been associated with a very broad array of neuropsychiatric disorders, suggesting that AUTS2 is required for fundamental steps of neurodevelopment. However, genotype-phenotype correlations in this region are complicated, because most mutations could also involve neighboring genes. Of particular interest in this regard is the nearest downstream neighbor of AUTS2, GALNT17, encoding a brain-expressed N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase of unknown brain function. Here we describe a mouse (Mus musculus) mutation, T(5G2;8A1)GSO (abbreviated 16Gso), a reciprocal translocation that breaks between Auts2 and Galnt17 and dysregulates both genes. Despite this complex regulatory effect, 16Gso homozygotes model certain human AUTS2-linked phenotypes very well. In addition to abnormalities in growth, craniofacial structure, learning and memory, and behavior, 16Gso homozygotes display distinct pathologies of the cerebellum and hippocampus that are similar to those associated with ASD and other types of neurological disease associated with this genomic region. Analyzing the mutant cerebellar and hippocampal transcriptomes, we identified disturbances in pathways related to neurite and synapse maturation, neurotransmitter signaling, and cellular stress, suggesting possible cellular mechanisms for 16Gso phenotypes. These pathways, coupled with the translocation’s selective effects on Auts2 isoforms and coordinated dysregulation of Galnt17, suggest novel hypotheses regarding the etiology of the human “AUTS2 syndrome” and the wide array of neurodevelopmental disorders linked to variance in this genomic region.

An Auts2-Containing RNA-Binding Complex Regulates Transcript Expression in Developing Cerebral Cortex

Project description:Molecular functions of the intellectual disability syndrome gene AUTS2 remain uncertain. Two mechanisms of Auts2 function have been proposed. One study found that Auts2 modifies Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) to activate transcription of target neurodevelopmental genes by recruiting EP300, a histone acetyltransferase. A second study found that cytoplasmic AUTS2 regulates cytoskeletal assembly through PREX1 to promote neurite outgrowth and migration. To further investigate Auts2 functions, we screened for AUTS2 interactors in cerebral cortex, and profiled changes of transcript expression in the developing cortex of Auts2 conditional mutant mice. AUTS2 immunoprecipitation experiments identified interactions with proteins involved in pre-mRNA processing, and mRNAs, including those encoding EP300 and PREX1, both bound by AUTS2-containing complexes and dysregulated in Auts2 mutant cortex. We propose that AUTS2 interacts with an RNA-binding complex that directly targets transcripts encoding Auts2 effectors. This mechanism provides a unifying model that accounts for previously disparate hypotheses of AUTS2 functions.

AUTS2 confers transcriptional activation to PRC1 in the CNS (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Naturally occurring variations of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) comprise a core assembly of Polycomb group proteins and additional factors that include, surprisingly, Autism Susceptibility Candidate 2 (AUTS2). While AUTS2 is often disrupted in patients with neuronal disorders, the underlying mechanism is unclear. We investigated the role of AUTS2 as part of a previously identified PRC1 complex (PRC1-AUTS2), and in the context of neurodevelopment. In contrast to the canonical role of PRC1 in gene repression, PRC1-AUTS2 activates transcription. Biochemical studies demonstrate that the CK2 component of PRC1-AUTS2 thwarts PRC1 repressive activity and AUTS2-mediated recruitment of P300 leads to gene activation. ChIP-seq of AUTS2 shows that it regulates neuronal gene expression through promoter association. Conditional CNS targeting of Auts2 in a mouse model leads to various developmental defects. These findings reveal a natural means of subverting PRC1 activity, linking key epigenetic modulators with neuronal functions and diseases.

NRF1 Association with AUTS2-Polycomb Mediates Specific Gene Activation in the Brain

Project description:Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are evolutionarily conserved chromatin-modifying factors that regulate gene expression to control tissue development. We previously discovered an AUTS2?Polycomb complex activates gene expression by recruiting Casein kinase 2 (CK2) and P300. But the mechanisms underlying the recruitment of AUTS2-PRC1 to chromatin and the physiological relevance of AUTS2-P300 interaction during neurodevelopment remain unknown. Here, we report that the transcription factor Nuclear Respiratory Factor 1 (NRF1) physically interacts with AUTS2 and overlaps with AUTS2 on chromatin binding. In a functional study combined with the single cell RNA-seq approach, we demonstrate that NRF1 is required for AUTS2 recruitment to chromatin, ncPRC1 associated active transcription in motor neuron and thereby modulates multipotent progenitors to motor neuron differentiation. Moreover, we discover that mutations within AUTS2 HX repeat region, which associate with RSTS phenotype disrupt AUTS2-P300 interaction and AUTS2 mediated transcriptional activation. Together, these findings reveal the underlying mechanism by which the AUTS2-containing ncPRC1 complex is recruited and activates transcription and mutations in the AUTS2 HX repeat region exert a dominant negative effect on AUTS2-P300 mediated transcriptional activation in RSTS.

MolPsy2024_YZWang_Neuron type-specific proteomics

Project description:Combinatorial expression of postsynaptic proteins underlies synapse diversity within and between neuron types. Thus, characterization of neuron-type-specific postsynaptic proteomes is key to obtaining a deeper understanding of discrete synaptic properties and how selective dysfunction manifests in synaptopathies. To overcome the limitations associated with bulk measures of synaptic protein abundance, we developed a biotin proximity protein tagging probe to characterize neuron-type-specific postsynaptic proteomes in vivo. We found Shank3 protein isoforms are differentially expressed by direct and indirect pathway spiny projection neurons (dSPNs and iSPNs). Investigation of Shank3B-/- mice lacking exons 13-16 within the Shank3 gene, reveal distinct Shank3 protein isoform expression in iSPNs and dSPNs. In Shank3B-/- striatum, Shank3E and Shank3NT are expressed by dSPNs but are undetectable in iSPNs. Proteomic analysis indicates significant and selective alterations in the postsynaptic proteome of Shank3B-/- iSPNs. Correspondingly, the deletion of exons 13-16 diminishes dendritic spine density, reduces spine head diameter, and hampers corticostriatal synaptic transmission in iSPNs. Remarkably, reintroducing Shank3E in adult Shank3B-/- iSPNs significantly rectifies the observed dendritic spine morphological and corticostriatal synaptic transmission deficits. We report unexpected cell-type specific synaptic protein isoform expression which could play a key causal role in specifying synapse diversity and selective synapse dysfunction in synaptopathies.
