Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are crucial factors of post-transcriptional gene regulation and their modes of action are intensely investigated. At the center of attention are RNA motifs that guide where RBPs bind. However, sequence motifs recognized by RBPs are typically a poor predictor of RBP-RNA interactions in vivo. It is hence believed that many RBPs recognize RNAs as complexes, to increase specificity and regulatory potential. To probe the potential for RBP–RBP complex formation, we assembled a library of 978 mammalian RBPs and used rec-Y2H screening to detect direct interactions between RBPs, sampling >1M possible interactions. We discovered 1994 new interactions and demonstrate that our interaction screening discovers RBP pairs that bind RNAs adjacently. We further find that the mRNA binding region preferences of an RBP can deviate, depending on its adjacently binding interaction partner. Finally, we reveal novel RBP–RBP interaction networks among major RNA processing steps and show that RBP mutations observed in cancer rewire spliceosomal interaction networks.

Project description:RNAs are continuously associated with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), and these interactions are necessary for many key cellular processes ranging from splicing to chromatin regulation. Although numerous approaches have been developed to map RNA-binding sites of individual RBPs, few methods exist that allow assessment of global RBP-RNA interactions. Here, we describe a universal, high-throughput, ribonuclease-mediated protein footprint sequencing approach that reveals RNA-protein interaction sites throughout a transcriptome of interest. We apply this method to the HeLa transcriptome and compare RBP binding sites found using different cross-linkers and ribonucleases. From this analysis, we identify numerous putative RBP binding motifs, reveal novel insights into co-binding by RBPs, and uncover a significant enrichment for disease-associated polymorphisms within RBP interaction sites. Protein interaction profile sequencing (PIP-seq) in HeLa cells. Two crosslinkers (formaldehyde and UV) with two RNases (dsRNase and ssRNase) each, as well as a no-crosslink sample. Performed with and without proteins. Three replicates for formaldehyde, two replicates for UV, single replicate for no crosslinker.

Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are multifunctional regulators of gene expression with complex and context-dependent mechanisms of action, yet the regulatory grammar that underlies RBP-mediated functions remains underexplored. Here, we performed a multi-omic data integration to systematically decipher the context-specific functions of RBPs. First, we report a compendium of in vivo proximity-dependent biotinylation (BioID) datasets of 50 human RBPs, which we used to generate a large-scale map of RBP protein neighborhoods. In parallel, we took advantage of CRISPR-interference with single-cell RNA-seq read-out (Perturb-seq) to capture rich transcriptomic phenotypes downstream of each RBP knockdown. By combining these physical and functional interaction readouts, along with the ENCODE transcriptome-wide atlas of RBP binding sites from eCLIP assays, we generated an integrated map of functional RBP interactions. This map not only captures well-studied post-transcriptional processes, but also reveals numerous previously unknown RBP-mediated regulatory functions. For a number of these cases, we have validated their predicted context-specific RBP functions using biochemical and genetic approaches. By deciphering these complex modes of functional interactions between RBPs, we have taken the first step towards a more comprehensive understanding of post-transcriptional regulatory processes and their underlying molecular grammar.

Project description:Quantitative criteria to identify proteins as RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are presently lacking, as are criteria to define RBP “target” RNAs. To address this, an ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking immunoprecipitation (CLIP)-sequencing method, easyCLIP, was developed. easyCLIP, provides absolute cross-link rates, as well as increased simplicity, efficiency, and capacity to visualize unamplified libraries. 213 cross-link measurements were performed and found that RBPs could be distinguished from non-RBPs by RNA cross-link rates and that target RNAs could be defined as those with a complex frequency unlikely for a random protein. easyCLIP was used to study the 33 most recurrent cancer mutations across 28 RBPs. This demonstrated increased RNA binding per RBP molecule for KHDRBS2 and A1CF cancer mutants, and showed that the PCBP1L100P/Q cancer mutation also dramatically increased RNA binding. Quantitating RBP-RNA interactions can thus categorize proteins as RBPs or not and define the impact of specific disease-associated RBP mutations on RNA binding.

Here, we develop an ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking immunoprecipitation (CLIP)-sequencing method, easyCLIP. easyCLIP provides absolute cross-link rates, as well as increased simplicity, efficiency, and capacity to visualize RNA libraries. Measurement of >200 independent cross-link experiments across >35 proteins identifies an RNA cross-link rate threshold that distinguishes RBPs from non-RBPs and defines target RNAs as those with a complex frequency unlikely for a random protein. We apply easyCLIP to the 33 most recurrent cancer mutations across 28 RBPs, finding increased RNA binding per RBP molecule for PCBP1 L100P/Q cancer mutations. Quantitating RBP-RNA interactions can thus nominate proteins as RBPs and define the impact of specific disease-associated RBP mutations on RNA association.

Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are key mediators of RNAbiogenesis and metabolism. An RBP can be dedicated to a specific transcript class (e.g. mRNAs) or function broadly across both coding and non-coding RNAs. Consequently, nuclear RNA homeostasis requires maintenance of bothRBP binding specificity and the proper distribution of RBP activity across multiple transcript classes. In S. cerevisiae, mutation of an RBP that functions in ribosome biogenesis, Enp1, was previously found to have terminal phenotypes similar to exosome or TRAMP mutants that extended beyond ribosomal RNA processing defects. Here, we show through proteomicand RNomic analyses that enp1-1 cells have stabilized polyadenylated pre-rRNAs that bind and sequester RBPs in the nucleolus, including the poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) Nab2. Changes in nucleolar polyadenylated RNA levels and PABP availability are further accompanied by transcriptome-wide changes in RNA biogenesis in enp1-1 cells, including increased levels of pervasive transcripts and snoRNA processing defects. The observed changes in RNA processing can be mitigated if enp1-1 cells are provided excess PABP activity through overexpression of Nab2 or Pab1. Together, these findings indicate that generation of excess nucleolar poly(A)-RNA is toxic to the cell, disrupting nuclear RNA processing homeostasis through sequestering RBPs, including the PABP Nab2.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests that transcriptional control and chromatin activities at large involve regulatory RNAs, which likely enlist specific RNA binding proteins (RBPs). Although multiple RBPs have been implicated in transcriptional control, it has remained unclear how extensively RBPs directly act on chromatin. We embarked on a large-scale RBP ChIP-seq analysis, revealing widespread RBP presence in active chromatin regions in the human genome. Like transcription factors (TFs), RBPs also showed strong preference for hotspots in the genome, particularly gene promoters, where their association is frequently linked to transcriptional output. Unsupervised clustering reveals extensive co-association between TFs and RBPs, as exemplified by YY1, a known RNA-dependent TF, and RBM25, an RBP involved in splicing regulation. Remarkably, RBM25 depletion attenuates all YY1-dependent activities, including chromatin binding, DNA looping and transcription. We propose that various RBPs may enhance network interaction through harnessing regulatory RNAs to control transcription. As part of the ENCODE consortium, we embarked on a large-scale RBP ChIP-seq analysis, revealing broad presence of RBPs in active chromatin regions in the human genome. Like transcription factors (TFs), RBPs also show great preference for hotspots in the genome, particularly gene promoters, where their binding is frequently linked to transcriptional output. Self-organizing map reveals extensive co-binding events between TFs and RBPs, as exemplified by those between YY1, a known RNA-dependent TF, and RBM25, an RBP involved in alternative splicing. Remarkably, RBM25 depletion attenuates all YY1-dependent activities, including chromatin binding, DNA looping and transcription. We propose that various RBPs may bridge specific TF-RNA interactions to control transcription.
