SATB2-LEMD2 interaction links nuclear shape plasticity to regulation of cognition-related genes

ABSTRACT: SATB2, encoding a nuclear chromosomal scaffolding protein, is a schizophrenia risk gene and genetically associated with human intelligence. How SATB2 affects cognition at molecular level is currently unknown. Our data suggest that interactions between SATB2 and the inner nuclear membrane protein LEMD2 orchestrate gene expression programs in pyramidal neurons that are linked to cognitive ability and psychiatric disorder etiology. We show that LEMD2, a candidate component of the A-heterochromatin tether, binds to SATB2 and the two proteins exert overlapping cellular functions. SATB2 is essential for neuronal activity-triggered nuclear envelope plasticity, which requires LEMD2 as well as the ESCRT-III/VPS4 complex. LEMD2-depletion in cortical neurons, like SATB2 ablation, affects the expression of multiple neuronal activity-regulated genes. The gene-sets regulated by LEMD2 and SATB2 significantly overlap and the LEMD2 gene-set is enriched for SATB2-bound genes. In human genetic data, LEMD2-regulated genes are enriched for loss-of-function mutations reported in autism, intellectual disability and schizophrenia and are, like SATB2-regulated genes, associated with cognitive function.

SATB2 organizes the 3D genome architecture of cognition in cortical neurons

Project description:The DNA-binding protein SATB2 is genetically linked to human intelligence. We studied its influence on 3D epigenome by mapping chromatin interactions and accessibility in control versus SATB2-deficient cortical neurons. We find that SATB2 affects the chromatin looping between enhancers and promoters of neuronal activity-regulated genes, thus influencing their expression. It also alters A/B compartments, Topologically Associating Domains and Frequently Interacting Regions. Genes linked to SATB2-dependent 3D genome changes are implicated in highly specialized neuronal functions and contribute to cognitive ability and risk for neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. Non-coding DNA regions with SATB2-dependent structure are enriched for common variants associated with educational attainment, intelligence and schizophrenia. Our data establish SATB2 as a cell-type specific 3D genome modulator, which operates both independently and in cooperation with CTCF to set up the chromatin landscape of pyramidal neurons for cognitive processes.

Endogenous brain ARC complexes

Project description:Arc is an activity regulated neuronal protein yet little is known about its protein interactions, assembly into multiprotein complexes, role in human disease and cognition. We applied an integrated proteomic and genetic strategy using targeted tagging of a Tandem Affinity Purification (TAP) tag and Venus fluorescent protein into the endogenous Arc gene in mice, biochemical and proteomic characterization of native complexes in wild type and knockout mice, and human genetic analyses of disease and intelligence. TAP tagging enabled efficient purification of complexes and identification of many novel Arcinteracting proteins, of which PSD95 was the most abundant. PSD95 was essential for Arc assembly into 1.5 MDa complexes and activity-dependent recruitment to excitatory synapses. Integrating human genetic data with proteomic data showed postsynaptic Arc- PSD95 complexes are enriched in schizophrenia, intellectual disability, autism and epilepsy mutations and normal variants in intelligence. Arc-PSD95 postsynaptic complexes are a molecular substrate for the convergence of normal and pathological genetic variants impacting on human cognitive function.

Gene expression analysis of neurons differentiated from iPS cells generated from the fibroblasts of monozygotic twins discordant for schizophrenia

Project description:Schizophrenia is heterogenious and polygenic disorder, and thus obtaining geneticly close control samples are valuable to increase the effect size. We obtained skin biopsies from five identical twin pairs discordant for schizophrenia and reprogrammed the cells to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). They are all Finnish/Caucasians, and the study was approved by ethical commitee in Finland. As schizophrenia affects mostly cognitive functions, we differentiated iPSCs to cortical neurons, moslty excitatory glutamatergic neurons and performed RNA sequencing for transcriptomic changes in neurons from patients with schizophrenia.

Gene expression signatures of SATB2-defficient vs wild-type adult neocortex

Project description:During CNS development, the nuclear protein SATB2 is expressed in superficial cortical layers and determines projection neuron identity. In the adult CNS, SATB2 is expressed in pyramidal neurons of all cortical layers and is a regulator of synaptic plasticity and long-term memory. Common variation in SATB2 locus confers risk of schizophrenia whereas rare, de novo structural and single nucleotide variants cause severe intellectual disability and absent or limited speech. To which extent symptoms in SATB2-related human pathologies depend on developmental or adult functions of the protein remains to be established. To characterize differences in SATB2 molecular function in developing vs adult neocortex, we compared SATB2 protein interactomes and SATB2-driven gene expression programs at the two ontogenetic stages by co-IP mass spectrometry and RNAseq analyses, respectively. Our results demonstrated that 1) SATB2 interacts with different protein networks at the two ontogenetic stages, with a switch from transcriptional repression towards organization of chromatin structure and 2) SATB2 determines differential transcriptional programs in neonatal vs adult cortex.

Gene expression data from cultured cortical neurons.

Project description:We used Affymetrix DNA arrays to investigate the extent to which nuclear HDAC4 accumulation affects neuronal gene expression. Cultured neurons were infected with lentiviruses expressing either wildtype HDAC4 or the constitutuvely nuclear 3SA mutant under the control of neuronal Synapsin promoter. Neurons were infected at 5 days after plating (5DIV) and analyzed at 14 DIV.
