Project description:Physiologically, MYC levels must be precisely set to faithfully amplify the transcriptome, but in cancer MYC is quantitatively misregulated. Here, we study the variation of MYC amongst single primary cells (B-cells and murine embryonic fibroblasts, MEFs) for the repercussions of variable cellular MYC-levels and setpoints. Because FUBPs have been proposed to be molecular "cruise controls" that constrain MYC expression, their role in determining basal or activated MYC-levels was also examined. Growing cells remember low and high-MYC setpoints through multiple cell divisions and are limited by the same expression ceiling even after modest MYC-activation. High MYC MEFs are enriched for mRNAs regulating inflammation and immunity. After strong stimulation, many cells break through the ceiling and intensify MYC expression. Lacking FUBPs, unstimulated MEFs express levels otherwise attained only with stimulation and sponsor MYC chromatin changes, revealed by chromatin marks. Thus, the FUBPs enforce epigenetic setpoints that restrict MYC expression.

Project description:Splicing is a central process in metazoans and greatly expands their proteome by alternative splicing of pre-mRNA transcripts. An essential regulatory step during early spliceosome assembly is the recognition of cis-regulatory RNA motifs in pre-mRNAs. Here, we identified the RNA binding protein FUBP1 as a novel core splicing factor with a ubiquitous footprint on pre-mRNAs. FUBP1 binds to a previously unknown cis-regulatory motif upstream of the branch point of human introns. We show that FUBP1 binds and stabilises known 3' splice site components such as the essential splicing factor U2AF2. FUBP1 mutant cell lines and patient data indicate that FUBP1 is particularly relevant for efficient splicing of exons flanked by long introns. In addition to its role at the 3’ splice site, FUBP1 shows multiple interactions with U1 snRNP- associated proteins. This demonstrates an important role for FUBP1 in splice site bridging in the context of long introns.

Project description:2′-O-methylation (Nm) is an abundant RNA modification exists on different mammalian RNA species. However, potential Nm recognition by proteins has not been extensively explored. Here, we employed RNA affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry to identify Nm-binding proteins. The candidates exhibit enriched binding at known Nm sites. Interestingly, some candidates display nuclear localization and functions. We focused on the splicing factor FUBP1. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) validated preference of FUBP1 to Nm-modified RNA. As FUBP1 predominantly binds intronic regions, we profiled Nm sites in chromatin-associated RNA (caRNA) and found Nm enrichment within introns. Depletion of Nm led to increased exon skipping, suggesting Nm-dependent splicing regulation. The caRNA Nm sites overlap with FUBP1 binding sites, and Nm depletion reduced FUBP1 occupancy on modified regions. Furthermore, FUBP1 depletion induced exon skipping in Nm-modified genes, supporting its role in mediating Nm-dependent splicing regulation. Overall, our findings identify FUBP1 as an Nm-binding protein and uncover previously unrecognized nuclear functions for RNA Nm modification.

Project description:We examine the oncogenic function of the Far Upstream Element Binding Protein 1 (FUBP1) in leukemia-initiating cells. For this perpose we performed knockdown of Fubp1 in CML cells in our mouse model. Here, we transduce donor bone marrow cell with the oncogene BCR-ABL1 and Fubp1 or scrambled shRNA and transplanted in recipient mice. Lineage- BCR-ABL1+ shRNA+ cells were then sorted from diseased mice and analyzed by RNA sequencing. We compare the gene expression of the Fubp1 shRNA expressing CML cells versus the control (scrambled shRNA expressing) cells in order to identify the relevant Fubp1 target genes.

Project description:Genome binding/occupancy profiling of human Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1), Far Upstream Binding Protein 1 (FUBP1) and histone marks by high throughput sequencing. RUNX1 and FUBP1 are two key transcriptional regulators implicated in hematopoiesis, from the maintenance of HSC to lineage-specific differentiation. We hypothesized that both proteins could play a joint role in transcription regulation of hematologic lineages. Here, we investigated the molecular proximity between RUNX1 and FUBP1 proteins on chromatin and their common target genes in pre-B lymphoblasts and B cell precursor leukemia (BCP-ALL). Altogether, our data show that RUNX1 and a subset of FUBP1 colocalize on chromatin in transcriptionally active/accessible chromatin regions mainly in promoters and enhancers regions.
