Ribosomal dysregulation: A conserved pathophysiological mechanism in human depression and mouse chronic stress

ABSTRACT: The biological underpinnings of major depressive disorder (MDD) heterogeneity are unknown, in part due to the poor association between MDD models and clinical endpoints. We compared transcriptomic profiles of human postmortem MDD brain tissue and chronic variable stress (CVS)-exposed mice to identify orthologous genes. A downregulation of ribosomal protein genes (RPGs) and upregulation of associated RP pseudogenes in the prefrontal cortex of several independent cohorts from both human MDD and mouse CVS tissue prompted a seeded gene co-expression analysis using the RPGs altered in both groups. Downregulated RPGs were found to regulate synaptic changes in human MDD and mouse CVS through a RP pseudogene-driven mechanism. In vitro and in silico analysis further suggested that the inverse RPG/RP pseudogene association was a glucocorticoid-driven response and reversed during MDD remission. Thus, stress-induced alterations in RPGs may contribute to synaptic dysregulation in MDD, providing a mechanism for the variability in depression presentation.

Effect of ribosomal protein intron deletion on gene expression

Project description:Ribosomal proteins are essential to life. While the functions of ribosomal protein-encoding genes (RPGs) are highly conserved, the evolution of their regulatory mechanisms is remarkably dynamic. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, RPGs are unusual in that they are commonly present as two highly similar gene copies and that they are over-represented among intron-containing genes. To investigate the role of introns in the regulation of RPG expression, we constructed 16 S. cerevisiae strains with precise deletions of RPG introns. We found that several yeast introns function to repress rather than to increase steady-state mRNA levels. Among these, the RPS9A and RPS9B introns were required for cross-regulation of the two paralogous gene copies, which is consistent with the duplication of an autoregulatory circuit.

Molecular Evidence for a Dimensional Basis of Depression

Project description:Here we identified a set of genes with frequent expression changes in the postmortem brain of MDD subjectsand show that this gene set is genetically related to brain and organ illnesses frequently associated with MDD. Specifically, we performed a meta-analysis of eight gene array studies in three corticolimbic brain regions and identified ~450 genes frequentlyderegulated in MDD (n=103 subjects, 50.5%MDD). These âMetaA-MDDâ genes includepreviously-implicated neuroplasticity- and stress-related genes (CRH, BDNF, VGF), encompass multiple synaptic and signaling pathways, and suggests complex changes in cell structure and function. MetaA-MDD genes display low connectivity andhubnessin coexpression networks andare evenly distributed throughout the genome. However, MetaA-MDD genesare significantly over-represented in gene sets identified by the genome-wide association studies for brain disorders and organ diseases sharing clinical co-morbidity with MDD (e.g., cardiovascular, metabolic syndrome), but not for other diseases or body functions. Together, this study describes a robustmolecular characterization of altered brain function in MDD, and provides evidence for a shared genetic structure linking MDD andrelated illnesses, together biologically defining abroader dimensional definition ofa depressive-like syndrome. 14 pairs of human postmotem AMY samples of MDD patients and control

Mechanisms Coordinating Ribosomal Protein Gene Transcription in Response to Stress

Project description:In this study, we elucidate the common logic of the RPGs regulatory network by evaluating both the architecture and activity of promoters under conditions of stress or modulation of TF levels, and we identified the proteins regulating the activity of promoters lacking Rap1 binding, thus demonstrating that RPG co-regulation requires the complementary action of two different mechanisms involving both Ifh1 and Sfp1.

Coordinate regulation of ribosomal protein gene transcription mediates embryonic secretory cell growth

Project description:Cell growth is well defined for the late (post-embryonic) stages of development, but evidence for early (embryonic) cell growth during post-mitotic morphogenesis is quite limited. Here, we identify early cell growth as a key characteristic of Drosophila embryonic salivary gland (SG) tubulogenesis. A BTB/POZ domain nuclear factor, Ribbon (Rib), mediates early cell growth without affecting endoreplication. Rib binds the transcription start site of nearly every SG-expressed ribosomal protein gene (RPG), and is required for full expression of all RPGs tested. Rib binding to RPG enhancers is, however, weak and not sequence-specific, suggesting that specificity is achieved through co-factor interactions. We demonstrate Rib’s ability to physically interact with each of the three known activators of RPG transcription. Surprisingly, Rib-dependent early cell growth in another tubular organ—the embryonic trachea—is not mediated by direct RPG transcription. Our results support a model for tissue-specific transcriptional regulation in early cell growth programs.

The DYRK1A protein kinase is recruited to a subset of ribosomal protein gene promoters in human and mouse cells [HeLa RNA-seq]

Project description:Ribosomal protein genes (RPGs) coding sequences are highly conserved along evolution; however, promoter features and the machinery involved in their transcriptional regulation are not. In eukaryotes, the main genomic elements and players involved in RPG transcriptional regulation have been mostly characterized in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, given the lack of evolutionary conservation of the yeast factors, studies in higher eukaryotes have focused on searching for differential enrichment of transcription factor-binding motifs within the RPG promoters. Among them, the palindromic motif TCTCGCGAGA, which is currently acknowledged as a ZBTB33/KAISO motif, also matches the genomic sequence bound by the protein kinase DYRK1A. DYRK1A, a member of the human family of DYRK kinases, fulfills many diverse functions by phosphorylating a broad set of proteins involved in different cellular processes. One of such functions is to be a chromatin-associated kinase capable of regulating gene expression. Here, we analyze in-depth the presence of DYRK1A at the promoters of human and mouse RPGs and explore its functional consequences. Our results indicate that DYRK1A is a positive regulator of RPGs’ expression at the transcriptional level, and further expand the functional spectrum of the kinase as a contributor to the regulation of cell growth in mammalian cells.

Deletion of ribosomal protein genes is a common vulnerability in human cancer, particularly in concert with TP53 mutation

Project description:Heterozygous inactivating mutations in ribosomal protein genes (RPGs) are associated with hematopoietic and developmental abnormalities, activation of p53, and altered risk of cancer in humans and model organisms. As a part of a large-scale study aimed at identifying associations between RPG deletions, p53 activation, and perturbations of rRNA maturation patterns, we analyzed a series of blood and bone marrow samples from children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), as a baseline genomic characterization.

Genome-wide localization of SUMO-modified proteins in untreated or heat-shocked budding yeast

Project description:Most SUMO-modified proteins in budding yeast and human cells are associated with chromatin. To determine specifically where sumoylated proteins are found across the genome, we performed ChIP-seq with a SUMO antibody in budding yeast. We identified 603 loci that each contain a stable SUMO peak. In agreement with a previous study, most of these sites correspond to tRNA genes or genes that encode ribosomal proteins (RPGs). However, 147 of the SUMO peaks in our analysis are found at promoters of protein-coding genes that are not RPGs (non-RPGs), many of which are among the most highly expressed genes. By comparing our data with other ChIP-seq studies, we determined that non-RPG SUMO peaks are situated precisely where general transcription factors (GTFs) assemble, but not where RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) or other promoter-proximal proteins bind. In support of this, we determined that the large subunit of TFIIF is the major SUMO target among GTFs and propose that its sumoylation controls the dynamics of RNAPII gene association. Additionally, we found that exposing yeast to a brief heat shock significantly reduces the intensity of SUMO peaks at most genes of all classes, which likely reflects the vast transcriptional reprogramming that occurs in response to temperature stress.
