Chromatin targeting of the RNF12/RLIM E3 ubiquitin ligase controls transcriptional responses

ABSTRACT: Protein ubiquitylation regulates key biological processes including transcription. This is exemplified by the E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF12/RLIM, which controls developmental gene expression by ubiquitylating the REX1 transcription factor and is mutated in an X-linked intellectual disability disorder. However, the precise mechanisms by which ubiquitylation drives specific transcriptional responses are not known. Here, we show that RNF12 is recruited to specific genomic locations via a consensus sequence motif, which enables co-localisation with REX1 substrate at gene promoters. Surprisingly, RNF12 chromatin recruitment is achieved via a non-catalytic basic region and comprises a previously unappreciated N-terminal autoinhibitory mechanism. Furthermore, RNF12 chromatin targeting is critical for REX1 ubiquitylation and downstream RNF12-dependent gene regulation. Our results demonstrate a key role for chromatin in regulation of the RNF12-REX1 axis and provide insight into mechanisms by which protein ubiquitylation enables programming of gene expression.

Chromatin targeting of the RNF12/RLIM E3 ubiquitin ligase controls gene-specific transcription

Project description:Protein ubiquitylation regulates key biological processes including transcription. This is exemplified by the E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF12/RLIM, which is mutated in an X-linked intellectual disability disorder and controls developmental gene expression by ubiquitylating the REX1 transcription factor. However, the precise mechanisms by which ubiquitylation patterns specific transcriptional programmes are not known. Here, we show that genomic targeting of RNF12 selectively programmes developmental transcription. RNF12 is recruited to specific genomic locations by recognising a distinct consensus sequence motif, which enables co-localisation with REX1. Surprisingly, RNF12 chromatin recruitment is achieved via the non-catalytic basic region (BR) and comprises a previously unappreciated autoinhibitory mechanism. Furthermore, RNF12 chromatin targeting is critical for REX1 ubiquitylation and downstream RNF12-dependent gene regulation. Our results demonstrate a key role for chromatin in regulation of the RNF12-REX1 axis and provides insight into mechanisms by which spatial control of protein ubiquitylation enables specific programming of gene expression.

The RING E3 Ligase RLIM Drives Oxidative Stress-Induced Stem Cell Dysfunction through MDM2-p53 Signaling

Project description:Chronic diabetic ulcers present a persistent challenge due to delayed wound healing. At the wound site, oxidative stress impairs stem cell survival and differentiation, accelerates senescence, and impairs autophagy. RLIM was identified as a critical regulator in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs), where oxidative stress-induced RLIM upregulation leads to MDM2 degradation and stabilization of p53. Functionally, RLIM upregulation under oxidative stress inhibited autophagy, induced cellular senescence, and significantly impaired angiogenesis, cell migration, and immunomodulatory functions, ultimately hindering diabetic wound healing in vivo. These results highlight the RLIM-MDM2-p53 signaling axis as a pivotal pathway governing stem cell senescence and function under oxidative stress, offering promising therapeutic targets to enhance stem cell-based approaches for diabetic wound repair.

Transcriptome of mouse preimplantation development [Rlim KO]

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to establish a roadmap of XCI and compare the transcriptomes of WT and Rlim KO embryos during X chromosome inactivation. Methods: mRNA profiles of 175 preimplantation embryos WT and KO for Rlim were elucidated by RNA-seq at various stages. Trophoblasts isolated from blastocyst outgrowths were also included. The sequence reads that samples where gender could be determined and that passed quality filters were analyzed at the level of autosomes, X xhromosomes as well as single genes. Results: Using single cell RNA-seq technology on 175 whole preimplantation embryos, we obtained about 2.95 million sequence reads per sample. Reads were normalized to autosomal gene expression. Gender of each embryo was determined by expression of Y-linked genes and Xist. Data analysis showed normal expression profiles of marker genes for epiblast and trophoblast cell types during preimplantation development. Comparing Xist expression profiles in embryos WT and KO shows that Rlim is not required for initiation of Xist transcription but for upregulation of Xist expression. Moreover, our results identify two waves of XCI during preimplantation development: One that occurs at Morula stages that is Rlim-independent and one at blastocyst stages that in dependent on Rlim. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed mouse preimplantation transcriptome. Our results show that Rlim is required for a second wave of imprinted XCI that occurs in female embryos at blastocyst stages.

Identification of the RNF12/RLIM proximal proteome

Project description:RNF12/RLIM is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that plays key developmental roles and is genetically disrupted in the neurodevelopmental disorder Tonne-Kalscheuer syndrome. RNF12/RLIM regulates X-chromosome inactivation and controls the expression of neural and gametogenesis related genes. To better understand how RNF12/RLIM performs these transcription-related functions, we performed a TurboID proximity ligation experiment to identify RNF12/RLIM proximal proteins in mouse embryonic stem cells treated with DMSO or MG132. This knowledge will increase our understanding of how this protein controls developmental gene expression and how disruption of these pathways drives disease.

Rlim-independent XCI in female embryonic stem cells in vitro

Project description:The transcriptomes of differentiated and undifferentiated E14 (male), Pgk12.1 (female; WT) and Pgk12.1 with a KO of Rlim (RlimKO) were elucidated and examined for differences in X chromosome inactivation. No significant differences between wt and RlimKO with respect to Xist expression and global X-silencing was detected. Results confirm that Rlim is not required for XCI in female ESCs.

Critical role of the UBL-domain in stimulating the E3 ubiquitin ligase activity of UHRF1 towards chromatin

Project description:The RING E3 ubiquitin ligase UHRF1 controls DNA methylation through its ability to target the maintenance DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 to newly replicated chromatin. DNMT1 recruitment relies on ubiquitylation of histone H3 by UHRF1, however, how UHRF1 deposits ubiquitin onto the histone is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that the ubiquitin-like domain (UBL) of UHRF1 is essential for RING-mediated H3 ubiquitylation. Using chemical crosslinking and mass spectrometry, biochemical assays and recombinant chromatin substrates we show that the UBL participates in structural rearrangements of UHRF1 upon binding to chromatin and the E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme UbcH5a/UBE2D1. Similar to ubiquitin, the UBL exerts its effects through a hydrophobic patch that contacts a regulatory surface on the “backside” of the E2 to stabilise the E2-E3-chromatin complex. Our analysis of the enzymatic mechanism of UHRF1 uncovers an unexpected function of the UBL-domain and defines a new role for this domain in DNMT1-dependent inheritance of DNA methylation.
