SETD5 haploinsufficiency affects mitochondrial compartment in neural cells

ABSTRACT: Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are heterogeneous conditions due to alterations of a variety of molecular mechanisms and cell dysfunctions. Epigenetic basis of NDDs have been reported in an increasingly number of cases while mitochondrial dysfunctions are more common within NDD patients than in the general population. Here, we investigated experimental models of Setd5 haploinsufficiency, that leads to NDDs in humans due to chromatin defects, and uncovered that mitochondrial dysfunction participates in the pathogenesis. Mitochondrial impairment is facilitated by transcriptional aberrations that follow the decrease of SETD5 enzyme. Low levels of SETD5 resulted in fragmented mitochondria, less mitochondrial potential and ATP production both in neural precursors and neurons. Mitochondria were miss-localized in mutant neurons, with few organelles within neurites and synapses. Our study explores the epigenetics/mitochondria interplay as an important aspect of NDD pathophysiology and defines the impairments of mitochondrial functionality and dynamics as new therapeutic targets for disorders associated with loss of SETD5.

Setd5 haploinsufficiency alters neuronal network connectivity and leads to autistic-like behaviors in mice [single cell]

Project description:SETD5, a gene linked to intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is a member of the SET-domain family and encodes a putative histone methyltransferase (HMT). To date, the mechanism by which SETD5 haploinsufficiency causes ASD/ID remains an unanswered question. Setd5 is the highly conserved mouse homolog, and although the Setd5 null mouse is embryonic lethal, the heterozygote is viable. Morphological tracing and multi electrode array was used on cultured cortical neurons. MRI was conducted of adult mouse brains and immunohistochemistry of juvenile mouse brains. RNA-Seq was used to investigate gene expression in the developing cortex. Behavioral assays were conducted on adult mice. Setd5+/- cortical neurons displayed significantly reduced synaptic density and neuritic outgrowth in vitro, with corresponding decreases in network activity and synchrony by electrophysiology. A specific subpopulation of fetal Setd5+/- cortical neurons showed altered gene expression of neurodevelopment-related genes. Setd5+/- animals manifested several autism-like behaviors, including hyperactivity, cognitive deficit, and altered social interactions. Anatomical differences were observed in Setd5+/- adult brains, accompanied by a deficit of deep-layer cortical neurons in the developing brain. Our data converge on a picture of abnormal neurodevelopment driven by Setd5 haploinsufficiency, consistent with a highly penetrant risk factor.

Transcriptional profiling of Setd5 heterozygous and knockout mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:SET-domain containing proteins play a vital role in regulating gene expression during development through modifications in chromatin structure. To study molecular function of SET domain containing 5 (Setd5), we assessed global changes in the mouse embryonic stem cell transcriptome when Setd5 gene is knocked out.

Autoinhibition of Trio guanine nucleotide exchange factor activity for Rac1 by its spectrin repeats is disrupted by neurodevelopmental disorder-related genetic variants.

Project description:Function-damaging variants in the TRIO gene are enriched in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). TRIO encodes a cytoskeletal regulatory protein with three catalytic domains – two guanine exchange factor (GEF) domains, GEF1 and GEF2, and a kinase domain, as well as several accessory domains that have not been extensively studied. Disease variants in the GEF1 domain or the nine adjacent spectrin repeats (SRs) are enriched in NDDs, suggesting that dysregulated GEF1 activity is linked to these disorders. We provide evidence here that the Trio SRs interact intramolecularly with the GEF1 domain to inhibit its activity. We demonstrate that SRs 6-9 decrease GEF1 catalytic activity both in vitro and in cells and show that NDD-associated variants in the SR8 and GEF1 domains relieve this autoinhibitory constraint. Our results from chemical cross-linking and BioLayer Interferometry indicate that the SRs primarily contact the PH region of the GEF1 domain, reducing GEF1 binding to Rac1. Together, our findings reveal a key regulatory mechanism that is commonly disrupted in multiple NDDs and may offer a new target for therapeutic intervention for TRIO-associated NDDs.

NSD1 deposits Histone H3 lysine 36 dimethylation to pattern non-CG DNA methylation in neurons [ChIP-seq in vivo]

Project description:During postnatal development the DNA methyltransferase DNMT3A deposits high levels of nonCG cytosine methylation in neurons. This unique methylation is critical for transcriptional regulation in the mature mammalian brain, and loss of this mark is implicated in DNMT3Aassociated neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). The mechanisms determining genomic nonCG methylation profiles are not well defined however, and it is unknown if this pathway is disrupted in additional NDDs. Here we show that genome topology and gene-expression converge to shape Histone H3 lysine 36 dimethylation (H3K36me2) profiles, which in turn recruit DNMT3A and pattern neuronal non-CG methylation. Brain-specific deletion of NSD1, the H3K36 methyltransferase mutated in the NDD Sotos syndrome, disrupts megabase-scale H3K36me2 patterns, causing alterations in non-CG methylation and transcription that overlap models of DNMT3A disorders. Our findings indicate that H3K36me2 deposited by NSD1 is an important determinant of neuronal non-CG DNA methylation and implicates disruption of this methylation in Sotos syndrome.
