The novel role of hnRNP UL1 in human cell nucleoli

ABSTRACT: hnRNPUL1 plays an important role in the cell nuclei, where it is recruited to DNA damage sites and is involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Furthermore, this protein is known as a transcriptional repressor of RNA polymerase II genes. In the present study, we have shown that hnRNP UL1 is also localized in the nucleoli. Revealing its function, we figured out that hnRNP UL1 stimulates ribosomal DNA (rDNA) gene transcription. We have performed high-throughput sequencing of libraries prepared from nucleolar and cytoplasmic-nuclear RNA fractions to identify differentially expressed ribosomal RNAs in wild-type and HNRNPUL1 knockout HEK293T cells.

The novel role of hnRNP UL1 in rDNA transcription and rDNA repair in human cell nucleoli

Project description:hnRNP UL1 plays an important function in cell nuclei, where it is recruited to DNA damage sites and is involved in the repair of DNA double strand breaks. Furthermore, this protein is known as a transcriptional repressor of RNA polymerase II genes. In the present study, we have shown that hnRNP UL1 is also localized in the nucleoli. Revealing its function, we figured out that hnRNP UL1 stimulates rDNA gene transcription and may be involved in the transport of the proteins between the nucleolus and the nucleoplasm. Moreover, we observed that cells with hnRNP UL1 silencing are more sensitive to DNA damage, suggesting its role in rDNA repair pathways and nucleolar genome integrity. Indeed, we confirmed that hnRNP UL1 interacts with yH2A.X, RPA32, XRCC1, and Chk1 in cell nucleoli, suggesting its involvement in repairing of DNA damages.

Treacle controls the nucleolar response to rDNA breaks via TOPBP1 recruitment and ATR activation

Project description:Induction of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeats is associated with ATM-dependent repression of ribosomal RNA synthesis and large-scale reorganization of nucleolar architecture, but the signaling events that regulate these responses are largely elusive. Here we show that the nucleolar response to rDNA breaks is dependent on both ATM and ATR activity. We further demonstrate that ATM- and NBS1-dependent recruitment of TOPBP1 in the nucleoli is required for inhibition of ribosomal RNA synthesis and nucleolar segregation in response to rDNA breaks. Mechanistically, TOPBP1 recruitment is mediated by phosphorylation-dependent interactions between three of its BRCT domains and conserved phosphorylated Ser/Thr residues at the C-terminus of the nucleolar phosphoprotein Treacle. Our data thus reveal an important cooperation between TOPBP1 and Treacle in the signaling cascade that triggers transcriptional inhibition and nucleolar segregation in response to rDNA breaks.

Protein UFMylation regulates ribosomal DNA double-stranded break repair

Project description:Ribosomal DNA (rDNA) arrays are highly repetitive regions of the genome which encode essential genes required to produce ribosomes. DNA double-stranded breaks (DSBs) generated within rDNA genes elicit a unique cellular response involving robust transcriptional silencing and nucleolar reorganization into ‘cap’ structures at the nucleolar periphery. This process is coordinated by the nucleolar scaffolding protein TCOF1, which functions to recruit the DNA repair proteins NBS1 and TOPBP1 that activate the ATM and ATR kinases, resulting in ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcriptional silencing and nucleolar segregation. However, the DNA damage and repair response at rDNA arrays remains incompletely understood. Here, we investigate the cellular response to rDNA DSBs using proteomics and genetic CRISPR-Cas9 screening. We show that the protein UFMylation pathway and the HUSH complex are important for cell viability and survival in response to rDNA DSBs, and that the E3 UFM1-ligase UFL1 and its heterodimer DDRGK1 are associated with TCOF1 at nucleolar caps. Loss of UFL1 leads to impaired ATM activation, reduced rRNA transcriptional silencing, and an overall reduction in nucleolar segregation. We identified ATM, UNC45A and SMC6 as UFMylated proteins, in which UFMylation may facilitate ATM activation and segregation of damaged rDNA to the nucleolar periphery. Altogether, our findings provide the first evidence for a role for UFMylation in rDNA DSB repair.

Activation of PARP-1 by snoRNAs Controls Ribosome Biogenesis and Cell Growth via the RNA Helicase DDX21 (RNA-Seq)

Project description:PARP inhibitors (PARPi) prevent cancer cell growth by inducing synthetic lethality with DNA repair defects (e.g., in BRCA1/2 mutant cells). We have identified an alternate pathway for PARPi-mediated growth control in BRCA1/2-intact breast cancer cells involving rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis. PARP-1 binds to snoRNAs, which stimulate PARP-1 catalytic activity in the nucleolus independent of DNA damage. Activated PARP-1 ADP-ribosylates DDX21, an RNA helicase that localizes to nucleoli and promotes rDNA transcription when ADP-ribosylated. Treatment with PARPi or mutation of the ADP-ribosylation sites reduce DDX21 nucleolar localization, rDNA transcription, ribosome biogenesis, protein translation, and cell growth. The salient features of this pathway are evident in xenografts in mice and human breast cancer patient samples. Elevated levels of PARP-1 and nucleolar DDX21 are associated with cancer-related outcomes. Our studies provide a mechanistic rationale for efficacy of PARPi in cancer cells lacking defects in DNA repair whose growth is inhibited by PARPi.

Low dose ribosomal DNA P-loop mutation affects development and enforces autophagy in Arabidopsis

Project description:To investigate the ribosomal RNA subpopulation types in a mutant created by CRISPR-Cas9 editing of rDNA copies in Arabidopsis thaliana / Original Abstract: Arabidopsis contains hundreds of ribosomal DNA copies organised within the nucleolar organising regions (NORs) in chromosomes 2 and 4. There are four major types of variants of rDNA, VAR1-4, based on the polymorphisms of 3' external transcribed sequences. The variants are differentially expressed during plant development. We created a mutant by the CRISPR-Cas9-mediated excision of ~25 nt from only the copies of NOR4 ribosomal DNA, obtaining mosaic mutational events on ~5% of all rDNA copies. The excised region consists of P-loop and Helix-82 segments of 25S rRNA. The mutation led to allelic, dosage-dependent defects marked by lateral root inhibition, reduced size, and pointy leaves, all previously observed for defective ribosomal function. The mutation in NOR4 led to dosage compensation from the NOR2 copies, marked by its associated single-nucleotide variants and, thus, resulted in an altered rRNA sub-population. Furthermore, it caused rRNA maturation defects specifically in the minor pathway characterised by 32S pre-rRNA accumulation. The mutated rRNAs were not incorporated into the translating ribosomes, while it induced an elevated autophagic flux, likely related to ribophagy.

hnRNP C is a key regulator of protein synthesis in mitosis

Project description:Stringent post-transcriptional regulation of mRNA fate is critical for proper cell division. To detect proteins involved in such regulation, we analyzed the composition of intact polysomal complexes from mitotic and interphase cells by quantitative mass-spectrometry. Using this approach, we detected increased association of several mRNA-binding proteins, including heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein C (hnRNP C), with mitotic polysomes. Immunofluorescence analysis, puromycin-sensitivity assays and nascent-chain pulldowns confirmed that hnRNP C interacts with polysome-bound mRNA during mitosis. Using a combination of pulsed SILAC and metabolic labeling, we found that knockdown of hnRNP C has a pervasive effect on both global and transcript-specific translation rates. Furthermore, ribosome profiling revealed that hnRNP C is involved in translation of mRNAs encoding components of the translation machinery and other mRNAs harboring a 5' terminal oligopyrimidine tract (5’ TOP). Taken together, these results suggest that hnRNP C is crucial for ribogenesis during mitosis; in its absence, production of ribosomal proteins and translation factors is impaired and translation rates are reduced during subsequent phases of the cell cycle.
