Expression profiling analysis of mouse E10.5 Magoh mutant brain cortices

ABSTRACT: Human brain structure and size requires regulated division of neural stem cells (NSCs). NSCs undergo precise divisions to self-renew and to produce intermediate neural progenitors (INPs) and neurons. The factors that regulate NSC divisions remain poorly understood, as do mechanistic explanations of how aberrant NSC division causes reduced brain size, as seen in microcephaly. Here we demonstrate that Magoh, a component of the core exon junction complex (EJC) that binds spliced RNA, controls cerebral cortical size by regulating NSC division. Magoh haploinsufficiency causes microcephaly due to INP depletion, neuronal apoptosis, and improper mitotic spindle orientation. Defective mitosis underlies these phenotypes as depletion of EJC components disrupts mitotic spindle integrity, chromosome number and genomic stability. We show that an essential function of Magoh is to regulate expression of the human microcephaly protein, LIS1, and that Lis1 addition rescues neurogenesis defects caused by Magoh knockdown, thus providing a genetic explanation for the microcephaly. This study uncovers new requirements for the EJC in brain development, NSC maintenance, mitosis and chromosome stability, thus implicating this complex in the pathogenesis of microcephaly. Mouse embryonic cortices were used for expression analysis

Role of the Exon Junction Complex in Danio rerio

Project description:The exon junction complex (EJC) is composed of three core proteins Rbm8a, Magoh and Eif4a3 and is thought to play a role in several post-transcriptional processes. In this study we focus on understanding the role of EJC in zebrafish development. We identified transcriptome-wide binding sites of EJC in zebrafish via RNA:protein immunoprecipitation followed by deep sequencing (RIP-Seq). We find that, as in human cells, zebrafish EJC is deposited about 24 nts upstream of exon-exon junctions. We also identify transcripts regulated by Rbm8a and Magoh in zebrafish embryos using whole embryo RNA-seq from rbm8a mutant, magoh mutant and wild-type sibling embryos. This study shows that nonsense mediated mRNA decay is dysregulated in zebrafish EJC mutants.

A mechanism for the segregation of age in mammalian neural stem cells

Project description:Across life neural stem cells (NSCs) generate new neurons in the mammalian brain through asymmetric neurogenic and self-renewing cell divisions. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying NSC asymmetry remain unknown. Using fluorescence loss in photobleaching (FLIP) we here show that NSCs in vitro and within the developing forebrain generate a lateral diffusion barrier during cell division resulting in asymmetric segregation of cellular components. The strength of the diffusion barrier is dynamically regulated with age and depends on the proper function of lamin-associated nuclear envelope constituents. Strikingly, age-associated or experimental impairment of the diffusion barrier disrupts asymmetric segregation of damaged proteins, a product of aging. Thus, the data presented here identify a mechanism how age is asymmetrically distributed during somatic stem cell division. For microarray analysis we analysed gene expression in cells derived from the hippocampi of 6 week old (young) or 9 month old (old) male C57BL/6JRj mice. 6 samples were analyzed YoungNSC, 3 replicates OldNSC, 3 replicates

Rack1 is Essential for Corticogenesis by Preventing P21-Dependent Senescence in Neural Stem Cells

Project description:Normal neurodevelopment relies on intricate signaling pathways that balance neural stem cell (NSC) self-renewal, maturation and survival. Disruptions lead to neurodevelopmental disorders including microcephaly. Here, we implicate the inhibition of NSC senescence as a mechanism underlying neurogenesis and corticogenesis. We report that the receptor for activated C kinase (Rack1), a family member of WD40-repeat (WDR) proteins, is highly enriched in NSCs. Deletion of Rack1 in developing cortical progenitors leads to a microcephaly phenotype. Strikingly, the absence of Rack1 decreases neurogenesis and promotes a cellular senescence phenotype in NSCs. Mechanistically, the senescence-related p21 signaling pathway is dramatically activated in Rack1-null NSCs, and removal of p21 significantly rescues the Rack1-knockout phenotype in vivo. Finally, Rack1 directly interacts with Smad3 to suppress the activation of TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway, which plays a critical role in p21-mediated senescence. Our data implicate Rack1-driven inhibition of p21-induced NSC senescence as a critical mechanism behind normal cortical development.

Magoh, Y14, eIF4AIII interactomes by TurboID proximity labelling provide no evidence for a canonical EJC in (almost) intron-less trypanosomatids

Project description:In metazoans, mRNA quality is tightly monitored from transcription to translation. A key role lies with the exon junction complex (EJC) that is placed upstream of the exon-exon junction after splicing. The EJC inner core is composed of Magoh, Y14, eIF4AIII and BTZ and the outer core of proteins involved in mRNA splicing (CWC22), export (Yra1), translation (PYM) and non-sense mediated decay (NMD, UPF1/2/3). The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei encodes only two genes with introns, but all mRNAs are processed by trans-splicing. The presence of the three core EJC proteins and a potential BTZ homologue (Rbp25) in trypanosomes has been suggested as an adaptation of the EJC function to mark trans-spliced mRNAs. Here we explore the interactome of Magoh, Y14, eIF4AIII in T. brucei by TurboID proximity labelling.

Enhanced cortical neural stem cell identity through SMAD/WNT inhibition in human cerebral organoids facilitates emergence of outer radial glial cells

Project description:Cerebral organoids exhibit broad regional heterogeneity accompanied by limited cortical cellular diversity despite the tremendous upsurge in derivation methods, suggesting inadequate patterning of early neural stem cells (NSCs). Here we show that a short and early dual-SMAD/WNT inhibition course is necessary and sufficient for establishing robust and lasting cortical organoid NSC identity, efficiently suppressing of non-cortical NSC fates, while other widely used methods are inconsistent in their cortical NSC specification capacity. Accordingly, this method selectively enriches for outer radial glia (oRG) NSCs, which cytoarchitecturally demarcate well-defined outer sub-ventricular (oSVZ)-like regions propagating from superiorly radially organized, apical cortical rosette NSCs. Finally, this method culminates in the emergence of molecularly distinct deep and upper cortical layer neurons, and reliably uncovers cortex-specific microcephaly defects. Thus, a short SMAD/WNT inhibition is critical for establishing a rich cortical cell repertoire that enables mirroring fundamental molecular and cytoarchitectural features of cortical development and meaningful disease modeling.

Transcriptome-wide modulation of splicing by the exon junction complex

Project description:We report that knockdown of EJC core proteins, eIF4A3, Y14, Magoh, causes a transcript-wide changes in alternative splicing, as well as some transcriptional changes. These changes are specific to EJC core proteins, and KD of UPF1 protein caused different sets of alterantive splicing changes. These changes are linked to the rate of transcription. Examination of 4 different knockdown, as well as GFP knockdown in HeLa cells, 2 replicates each condition.

Declining Lamin B1 expression mediates age-dependent decreases of hippocampal stem cell activity

Project description:Neural stem cells (NSCs) generate neurons throughout life in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG). With advancing age levels of neurogenesis sharply drop, which has been associated with a decline in hippocampal memory function. However, cell-intrinsic mechanisms mediating age-related changes in NSC activity remain largely unknown. Here we show that the nuclear lamina protein Lamin B1 (LB1) is downregulated with age in mouse hippocampal NSCs. LB1 is cross-regulated with Sun-domain containing protein 1 (SUN1), previously implicated in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a disease of premature aging. LB1 and SUN1 govern the strength of a diffusion barrier in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that is associated with the segregation of aging factors during NSC divisions. Balancing the levels of LB1 and SUN1 in aged NSCs restores the ER-diffusion barrier. Virus-based restoration of LB1 expression in aged NSCs enhances stem cell activity in vitro and increases progenitor cell proliferation and neurogenesis in vivo. Thus, we here identify a novel mechanism associated with the age-related decline of neurogenesis in the mammalian hippocampus.
