Regulation of PGC-1alpha function by its C-terminal domain [in vitro AP-seq]

ABSTRACT: PGC-1alpha has been proposed to couple gene transcription and RNA processing via SR-rich domains and an RNA recognition motif located at the C-terminal domain (CTD). However, the full extent by which the CTD of PGC-1alpha regulates its function in gene expression and RNA processing remains largely unknown. Here, we used RNA-seq to evaluate the effects of CTD deletion (dCTD) on PGC-1alpha function. We found that deletion of the CTD of PGC-1alpha virtually abolished its effects on transcriptome remodeling and the resulting increase in oxidative capacity in skeletal muscle cells. Moreover, we implemented in vitro affinity purification followed by sequencing (in vitro AP-seq), which revealed more than 700 RNAs bound to the CTD of PGC-1alpha. The majority of these RNAs were transcribed at DNA regulatory elements such as promoters and distal intergenic regions. These results demonstrate that PGC-1alpha function is highly modulated at the CTD via multivalent protein-RNA interactions.

Project description:Title: Total Skeletal Muscle PGC-1 Deficiency Uncouples Mitochondrial Derangements from Fiber Type Determination and Insulin Sensitivity Abstract: Evidence is emerging that the PGC-1 coactivators serve a critical role in skeletal muscle metabolism, function, and disease. Mice with total PGC-1 deficiency in skeletal muscle (PGC-1α-/- βf/f/MLC-Cre mice) were generated and characterized. PGC-1α-/-βf/f/MLC-Cre mice exhibit a dramatic reduction in exercise performance compared to single PGC-1α- or PGC-1β-deficient mice and wild-type controls. The exercise phenotype of the PGC-1α-/-βf/f/MLC-Cre mice was associated with a marked diminution in muscle oxidative capacity and mitochondrial structural derangements consistent with fusion/fission and biogenic defects together with rapid depletion of muscle glycogen stores during exercise. Surprisingly, the skeletal muscle fiber type profile of the PGC-1α-/-βf/f/MLCCre mice was not significantly different than the wild-type mice. Moreover, insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance were also not altered in the PGC-1α-/-βf/f/MLC-Cre mice. Taken together, we conclude that PGC-1 coactivators are necessary for the oxidative and mitochondrial programs of skeletal muscle but are dispensable for fundamental fiber type determination and insulin sensitivity. RNA from PGC-1alpha-/- beta f/f/Mlc1fcre was obtained and gene expression pattern compared with PGC-1alpha -/-, PGC-1beta f/f, and PGC-1beta f/f/Mlc1fCre controls. Results file descriptions: 1.
