Assembly defects of the human tRNA splicing endonuclease contribute to impaired pre-tRNA splicing in pontocerebellar hypoplasia

ABSTRACT: Our work defines the molecular principles of intron excision in humans and provides evidence that destabilized TSEN contributes to a PCH phenotype by impairing tRNA splicing at the intron-excision step.

Assembly defects of the human tRNA splicing endonuclease contribute to impaired pre-tRNA processing in pontocerebellar hypoplasia

Project description:To gain functional insights into human TSEN/CLP1, we designed an expression vector series based on the MultiBac system that allows combinatorial protein complex production in insect and mammalian cells by utilizing a CMV/p10 dual promoter. Using this system, we were able to assemble and purify functional heterotetrameric TSEN and a heteropentameric complex including the RNA kinase CLP1 from infected insect cells. Individual proteins of the complexes were identified using in-gel digestion and LC-MS/MS analysis. To gain atomistic insights into the molecular architecture of the human TSEN complex, we set out to characterize the TSEN15–34 heterodimer by X-ray crystallography. Despite extensive crystallization trials, full-length TSEN15–34 did not yield any crystals. To define a crystallizable core complex, we subjected the full-length complex to limited proteolysis with subsequent size exclusion chromatography. Primarily, we observed two comigrating polypeptide species. The two polypeptide species were identified using in-gel digestion followed by LC-MS/MS analysis. This led to the identification of the polypeptide species corresponding to residues 23 to 170 of TSEN15 and residues 208 to 310 of TSEN34 covering the predicted conserved nuclease domains.

The Clp1 R140H mutation alters tRNA metabolism and mRNA 3’ processing in mouse models of pontocerebellar hypoplasia

Project description:Homozygous mutation of the RNA kinase CLP1 causes pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 10 (PCH10), a pediatric neurodegenerative disease. CLP1 is associated with the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex and the cleavage and polyadenylation machinery, but its function remains unclear. We generated two mouse models of PCH10: one homozygous for the disease-associated Clp1 mutation, R140H, and one heterozygous for this mutation and a null allele. Both models exhibit loss of lower motor neurons and neurons of the deep cerebellar nuclei. To explore whether Clp1 mutation impacts tRNA splicing, we profiled the products of intron-containing tRNA genes. While mature tRNAs were expressed at normal levels in mutant mice, numerous other products of intron-containing tRNA genes were dysregulated, with pre-tRNAs, introns, and certain tRNA fragments upregulated, and other fragments downregulated. However, the spatiotemporal patterns of dysregulation did not support a role in pathogenicity for most altered tRNA products. To elucidate the effect of Clp1 mutation on pre-mRNA cleavage, we analyzed poly(A) site (PAS) usage and gene expression in Clp1R140H/- spinal cord. PAS usage was shifted from proximal to distal sites in the mutant mouse, particularly in short and closely spaced genes. Many such genes also were expressed at lower levels in the Clp1R140H/- mouse, possibly as a result of impaired transcript maturation. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that select genes are particularly dependent upon CLP1 for proper pre-mRNA cleavage, suggesting that the contribution of mRNA 3’ processing to pathogenesis in PCH10 merits further investigation.
