The cytoplasmic SYNCRIP mRNA interactome of mammalian neurons

ABSTRACT: SYNCRIP, a member of the cellular heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) family of RNA binding proteins, regulates various aspects of neuronal development and plasticity. Although SYNCRIP has been identified as a component of cytoplasmic RNA granules in dendrites of mammalian neurons, only little is known about the specific SYNCRIP target mRNAs that mediate its effect on neuronal morphogenesis and function. Here, we present a comprehensive characterization of the cytoplasmic SYNCRIP mRNA interactome using iCLIP in primary rat cortical neurons. We identify hundreds of bona fide SYNCRIP target mRNAs, many of which encode for proteins involved in neurogenesis, neuronal migration and neurite outgrowth. From our analysis, the stabilization of mRNAs encoding for components of the microtubule network, such as doublecortin (Dcx), emerges as a novel mechanism of SYNCRIP function in addition to the previously reported control of actin dynamics. Furthermore, we found that SYNCRIP interacts with miRISC and synergizes with pro-neural miRNAs, such as miR-9. Based on our findings, we propose a model whereby SYNCRIP promotes early neuronal differentiation by a two-tier mechanism involving the stabilization of pro-neural mRNAs by direct 3’UTR interaction and the repression of anti-neural mRNAs in a complex with neuronal miRISC. Together, our findings provide a rationale for future studies investigating the function of SYNCRIP in mammalian brain development and disease.

Integrative Single-Cell Transcriptomics Reveals Molecular Networks Defining Neuronal Maturation during Neurogenesis

Project description:Neurogenesis in the adult hippocampus contributes to information processing critical for cognition, adaptation, learning and memory, and is implicated in numerous neurological disorders. New neurons are continuously produced from neural stem cells via a well-controlled developmental process. The immature neuron stage defined by doublecortin (DCX) expression is the most sensitive to regulation by extrinsic factors. However, little is known about the dynamic biology within this critical interval that drives maturation and confers susceptibility to regulating signals. This study aims to test the hypothesis that DCX-expressing immature neurons in adult mouse hippocampus progress through developmental stages via activity of specific transcriptional networks. Using single-cell RNA-seq combined with a novel integrative bioinformatics approach, we discovered that individual immature neuron can be classified into distinct developmental subgroups based on characteristic gene expression profiles and subgroup-specific markers. Comparisons between immature and more mature subgroups revealed novel pathways involved in neuronal maturation. Genes enriched in more immature cells shared significant overlap with genes implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, while genes positively associated with neuronal maturation were enriched for autism-related gene sets. Our study thus discovers molecular signatures of individual adult-born immature neurons and unveils potential novel targets for therapeutic approaches to treat neurodevelopmental and neurological diseases. mRNA sequencing and expression estimation in 64 individual DCX-dsRed+ cells isolated from transgenic DCX-dsRed mice by FACS sorting

Crosslinking-Mass Spectrometry data for structural analysis of Doublecortin-Microtubule interaction

Project description:Doublecortin (DCX) is a microtubule (MT) associated protein that regulates MT structure and function during neuronal development and mutations in DCX lead to a spectrum of neurological disorders. The structural properties of MT-bound DCX remain poorly resolved. Here, we describe the molecular architecture of the DCX-MT complex through an integrative modeling approach that combines data from X-ray crystallography, cryo-EM and a high-fidelity chemical crosslinking method. We demonstrate that DCX interacts with MTs through its N-terminal domain and induces a lattice-dependent self-association involving both the C-terminal structured domain and the C-tails, in a conformation that favors an open, domain-swapped state. The networked state is shown to accommodate multiple different attachment points on the MT lattice, all of which orient the C-tails away from the lattice. As numerous disease mutations cluster in the C-terminus and regulatory phosphorylations cluster in the C-tail, our study shows that lattice-driven self-assembly is an important property of DCX.

Gene expression profiling of neural stem cells and their neuronal progeny reveals IGF2 as a regulator of adult hippocampal neurogenesis

Project description:Neural stem cells (NSCs) generate new neurons throughout life in two distinct areas of the mammalian brain: the subventricular zone (SVZ) lining the lateral ventricles and the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG). How gene expression signatures differ among NSCs and immature neurons within and between these adult neurogenic regions is unknown. We isolated NSCs and their progeny using transgenic mice expressing GFP under the control of the Sox2 promoter (labeling NSCs) and transgenic mice expressing DsRed under the control of the doublecortin (Dcx) promoter (labeling immature neurons). Comparison of the transcriptomes of SOX2+ cells derived from both neurogenic areas revealed that NSCs are highly similar but that functionally significant differences in gene expression exist: IGF2, which is expressed only in SOX2+ cells in the DG but not in the SVZ, is required for proliferation of DG-derived but not SVZ-derived NSCs. Gene expression profiles strongly diverged in immature neurons, and we provide evidence that ephrinB3, which was up-regulated only in the DG but not in the SVZ during neuronal differentiation, regulates the survival of newborn granule cells. Thus, the data provided here show that stem cell populations in the adult DG and SVZ are similar but have unique properties that manifest themselves later during neural differentiation, resulting in distinct neuronal populations Hippocampi and SVZ from 6 week old DCX-DsRed and Sox2-GFP Reporter mice were dissected and cell sorted using FACS. cDNA were generated and analysed using Agilent Platform.

The RNA binding protein SYNCRIP is a component of the hepatocyte exosomal machinery controlling microRNAs sorting

Project description:Despite clear evidence that exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) are able to modulate the cellular microenvironment and that exosomal RNA cargo selection is often deregulated in pathological conditions, the mechanisms controlling specific RNA sorting into extracellular vescicles are still poorly understood. We identified here the RNA binding protein SYNCRIP (Synaptotagmin-binding Cytoplasmic RNA-Interacting Protein, also known as hnRNP-Q or NSAP1) as a component of the hepatocyte exosomal miRNA sorting machinery. SYNCRIP was found to bind directly a subset of miRNAs enriched in exosomes, sharing a common extra-seed sequence that we named hEXO motif. In vivo knock-down of SYNCRIP impaired microRNA sorting in exosomes and the hEXO motif was proven to play a role in the regulation of miRNA localization, as its embedment into a poorly exported miRNA enhanced its loading into exosomes. These results provide a new insight in the mechanisms of miRNA exosomal sorting process, that ca be exploited to further understand the role of these extracellular vescicles in cell-to-cell communications and the control of tissue micoenvironments.

Early born neurons are abnormally positioned in the doublecortin knockout hippocampus

Project description:Human doublecortin (DCX) mutations are associated with severe brain malformations leading to aberrant neuron positioning (heterotopia), intellectual disability and epilepsy. The Dcx protein plays a key role in neuronal migration, and hippocampal pyramidal neurons in Dcx knockout (KO) mice are disorganized. The single CA3 pyramidal cell layer observed in wild type (WT) is present as two abnormal layers in the KO, and CA3 KO pyramidal neurons are more excitable than WT. Dcx KO mice also exhibit spontaneous epileptic activity originating in the hippocampus. It is unknown however, how hyperexcitability arises and why two CA3 layers are observed. Transcriptome analyses were performed to search for perturbed postnatal gene expression, comparing Dcx KO CA3 pyramidal cell layers with WT. Gene expression changes common to both KO layers indicated mitochondria and Golgi apparatus anomalies, as well as increased cell stress. Intriguingly, gene expression analyses also suggested that the KO layers differ significantly from each other, particularly in terms of maturity. Layer-specific molecular markers and BrdU birthdating to mark the final positions of neurons born at distinct timepoints revealed inverted layering of the CA3 region in Dcx KO animals. Notably, many early-born ‘outer boundary’ neurons are located in an inner position in the Dcx KO CA3, superficial to other pyramidal neurons. This abnormal positioning likely affects cell morphology and connectivity, influencing network function. Dissecting this Dcx KO phenotype sheds light on coordinated developmental mechanisms of neuronal subpopulations, as well as gene expression patterns contributing to a bi-layered malformation associated with epilepsy.

Transcriptome of ovarian cancer cells overexpressing SYNCRIP or SNU13

Project description:We showed that in response to chemotherapy, dying cancer cells can secrete spliceosomal components into the extracellular space. These therapy-induced secretomes enriched with spliceosomal components promote the chemoresistance of recipient tumor cells. We demonstrated that spliceosomal proteins SNU13 and SYNCRIP can relocalize from dying tumor cells to recipient tumor cells via extracellular vesicles. To investigate whether the increased abundance of splicing factors could be the reason for the acquisition of a more aggressive phenotype by tumor cells, we got SKOV3 cell lines stably overexpressing SYNCRIP or SNU13. These cell lines were more resistant to cisplatin compared to control cell line expressing empty vector. Next, to investigate how the therapy response is formed in tumor cells with and without overexpression of spliceosomal proteins SNU13 or SYNCRIP, we performed RNAseq analysis of these cells before and 24 hours after cisplatin treatment. Enrichement analyses showed that in response to cisplatin, genes associated with DNA repair and cell cycle regulation were upregulated in cancer cell lines overexpressing SYNCRIP or SNU13 compared with control cells. This study revealed previously unknown signaling molecules in the microenvironment of ovarian cancer that have potential clinical significance.

Neuronal upregulation of Prospero protein is driven by alternative mRNA polyadenylation and Syncrip-mediated mRNA stabilisation

Project description:During Drosophila and vertebrate brain development, the conserved transcription factor Prospero/Prox1 is an important regulator of the transition between proliferation and differentiation. Prospero level is low in neural stem cells and their immediate progeny, but is upregulated in larval neurons and it is unknown how this process is controlled. Here, we use single molecule fluorescent in situ hybridisation to show that larval neurons selectively transcribe a long prospero mRNA isoform containing a 15 kb 3’ untranslated region, which is bound in the brain by the conserved RNA-binding protein Syncrip/hnRNPQ. Syncrip binding increases the mRNA stability of the long prosperoisoform, which allows an upregulation of Prospero protein production. Our findings highlight a regulatory strategy involving alternative polyadenylation followed by differential post-transcriptional regulation.
