Role of the Exon Junction Complex in Danio rerio

ABSTRACT: The exon junction complex (EJC) is composed of three core proteins Rbm8a, Magoh and Eif4a3 and is thought to play a role in several post-transcriptional processes. In this study we focus on understanding the role of EJC in zebrafish development. We identified transcriptome-wide binding sites of EJC in zebrafish via RNA:protein immunoprecipitation followed by deep sequencing (RIP-Seq). We find that, as in human cells, zebrafish EJC is deposited about 24 nts upstream of exon-exon junctions. We also identify transcripts regulated by Rbm8a and Magoh in zebrafish embryos using whole embryo RNA-seq from rbm8a mutant, magoh mutant and wild-type sibling embryos. This study shows that nonsense mediated mRNA decay is dysregulated in zebrafish EJC mutants.

RNA-Seq of control and EJC factor (EIF4A3, RBM8A, MAGOH) knockdowns in part with EIF4A3 rescue in HeLa Tet-Off cells

Project description:The exon junction complex is involved in gene expression regulation on multiple co- and post-transcriptional levels. We aimed to investigate in HeLa Tet-Off cells which gene expression alterations can be observed upon knockdown of core EJC factors (EIF4A3, RBM8A and MAGOH) or upon EIF4A3 knockdown and rescue with EIF4A3 wild type construct by using RNA-Seq analyses. The rescue construct was stably integrated into the genome using the PiggyBac transposon system. As control Luciferase (Luc) siRNA was used.

The Exon Junction Complex Core Represses Cancer-specific Mature mRNA Re-splicing: A Potential Key Role in Terminating Splicing

Project description:Using the TSG101 pre-mRNA, we previously discovered cancer-specific re-splicing of mature mRNA that generates aberrant transcripts/proteins. The fact that mRNA is aberrantly re-spliced in various cancer cells implies there must be an important mechanism to prevent deleterious re-splicing on the spliced mRNA in normal cells. We thus postulated that the mRNA re-splicing is controlled by specific repressors and we searched for repressor candidates by siRNA-based screening for mRNA re-splicing activity. We found that knock-down of EIF4A3, which is a core component of the exon junction complex (EJC), significantly promoted mRNA re-splicing. Remarkably, we could recapitulate cancer-specific mRNA re-splicing in normal cells by knock-down of any of the core EJC proteins, EIF4A3, MAGOH or RBM8A (Y14), implicating the EJC core as the repressor of mRNA re-splicing often observed in cancer cells. We propose that the EJC core is a critical mRNA quality control factor to prevent over-splicing of mature mRNA.

Transcriptome-wide modulation of splicing by the exon junction complex

Project description:We report that knockdown of EJC core proteins, eIF4A3, Y14, Magoh, causes a transcript-wide changes in alternative splicing, as well as some transcriptional changes. These changes are specific to EJC core proteins, and KD of UPF1 protein caused different sets of alterantive splicing changes. These changes are linked to the rate of transcription. Examination of 4 different knockdown, as well as GFP knockdown in HeLa cells, 2 replicates each condition.

eIFA3 - iCLIP

Project description:The exon junction complex is deposited at 24nt upstream of exon-exon junctions, but not at every junction. The core complex is comprosed of 4 proteins, eIF4A3, Magoh, Y14 and MLN51. Here we performed immunoprecipitation of Y14 with subsequent iCLIP of eIF4A3 in HeLa cells to identify the crosslink sites of the exon junction complex, in particular eIF4A3.

Identification of Antiviral Roles for the Exon-Junction Complex and Nonsense-Mediated Decay in Flaviviral Infection

Project description:West Nile virus (WNV) is an emerging mosquito-borne flavivirus, related to dengue virus and Zika virus. To gain insight into host pathways involved in WNV infection, we performed a systematic affinity-tag purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS) study to identify 259 WNV-interacting human proteins. RNAi screening revealed 26 genes that both interact with WNV proteins and influence WNV infection. We found that WNV, dengue and Zika virus capsids interact with a conserved subset of proteins that impact infection. These include the exon-junction complex (EJC) recycling factor, PYM1, which is antiviral against all three viruses. The EJC has roles in nonsense-mediated decay (NMD), and we found that both the EJC and NMD are antiviral. Mechanistically, we found that the EJC protein RBM8A directly binds WNV RNA. To counteract this antiviral defense, flavivirus infection inhibits NMD and the interaction of capsid with PYM1 interferes with EJC protein function and localization. Moreover, depletion of PYM1 attenuates RBM8A binding to viral RNA, suggesting that WNV sequesters PYM1 to protect viral RNA from decay. Together, these data suggest a complex interplay between the virus and host in regulating NMD and the EJC complex.

The protein complex of kinesin motor KIF1C and its hereditary spastic paraplegia associated mutant G102A

Project description:Regulated local translation, RNA transport and protein localization are critical for spatio-temporal gene expression in neurons. The localization of mRNA and subsequent local protein synthesis contribute to neuronal functions like synaptogenesis, synapse pruning, axon guidance, axonal regeneration and synaptic plasticity. Thus, mutations in motor proteins and subsequent cargo transport failure lead to motoneuron diseases. The kinesin family member 1 C has been shown to play a role in different cargo transport alongside the microtubule network, but the pathomechanisms behind KIF1C deficiency mediated motoneuron diseases has not been deciphered yet. Additionally, the exon junction complex has been suggested as a molecular link between splicing and cytoplasmic mRNA localization and local translation. Here we identified KIF1C as a EJC transporter in neuronal cells. We investigated the KIF1C proteome in differentiated SH-SY5Y cells and found an interaction of KIF1C with EJC components and other RNA-binding proteins in KIF1C overexpressing SH-SY5Y cells. The interaction could be validated via immunoprecipitation and an endogenous eIF4A3 co-immunoprecipitation. The co-localization of eIF4A3 and RBM8A with wildtpye KIF1C at protrusions of SH-SY5Ys further confirms the interaction. The mislocalization of eIF4A3 and RMB8A due to KIF1C mutation suggests a transport of the EJC by KIF1C. Furthermore, the interaction of KIF1C with PABPC1 and EJC components is RNA mediated. We additionally demonstrate via complex capture with KIF1C overexpressing HEK293 cells that KIF1C interacts with RNA itself. We therefore suggest the interaction of KIF1C not only with the EJC, but with a complex containing RNA and the EJC. Hence KIF1C is a transporter of mRNA and the EJC.

Magoh, Y14, eIF4AIII interactomes by TurboID proximity labelling provide no evidence for a canonical EJC in (almost) intron-less trypanosomatids

Project description:In metazoans, mRNA quality is tightly monitored from transcription to translation. A key role lies with the exon junction complex (EJC) that is placed upstream of the exon-exon junction after splicing. The EJC inner core is composed of Magoh, Y14, eIF4AIII and BTZ and the outer core of proteins involved in mRNA splicing (CWC22), export (Yra1), translation (PYM) and non-sense mediated decay (NMD, UPF1/2/3). The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei encodes only two genes with introns, but all mRNAs are processed by trans-splicing. The presence of the three core EJC proteins and a potential BTZ homologue (Rbp25) in trypanosomes has been suggested as an adaptation of the EJC function to mark trans-spliced mRNAs. Here we explore the interactome of Magoh, Y14, eIF4AIII in T. brucei by TurboID proximity labelling.
