Intrinsically disordered regions of transcription factor encode multiple functions using interwoven sequence grammars (RNA-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are abundant within eukaryotic proteins, but their sequence-function relationship remains poorly understood. IDRs of transcription factors (TFs) can direct promoter selection and recruit coactivators, as exemplified by the budding-yeast TF- Msn2. To examine how low-complexity IDRs encode multiple functions, we compared genomic binding preferences, gene induction, and coactivator recruitment amongst a large set of designed Mns2-IDR mutants. We show that multiple regions across the >500AA IDR contribute to both functions. Yet, transcription activity was readily disrupted by variants having no consequences on Msn2 binding. Our data attribute this differential sensitivity to the integration of relaxed, composition-based code directing binding preferences with a more stringent, motif-based code controlling the recruitment of coactivators and transcription activity. Interwoven sequence grammar may present a general paradigm through which low-complexity IDRs encode multiple functions.

Regulation of zebrafish dorsoventral patterning by phase separation of RNA-binding protein rbm14

Project description:RNA-binding proteins with intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) such as Rbm14 can phase separate in vitro. To what extent the phase separation contributes to their physiological functions is however unclear. Here we show that zebrafish rbm14 regulates embryonic dorsoventral patterning through phase separation. Zebrafish rbm14 morphants displayed dorsalized phenotypes associated with attenuated BMP signaling. Consistently, depletion of mammalian Rbm14 downregulated BMP regulators and effectors Nanog, Smad4/5, and Id1/2, whereas overexpression of the BMP-related proteins in the morphants significantly restored the developmental defects. Importantly, rbm14's IDR demixed into liquid droplets in vitro despite poor sequence conservation with its mammalian counterpart. While its phase separation mutants or IDR failed to rescue the morphants, its chimeric proteins containing an IDR from other phase-separation proteins were effective. Rbm14 complexed with proteins involved in RNA metabolism and phase separated into cellular ribonucleoprotein compartments. Consistently, RNA deep sequencing analysis on the morphant embryos revealed increased alternative splicing events as well as largescale transcriptomic downregulations. Our results suggest that Rbm14 functions in ribonucleoprotein compartments through phase separation to modulate multiple aspects of RNA metabolism. Furthermore, IDRs conserve in phase separation ability but not primary sequence and can be functionally interchangeable.

Hierarchical antagonistic regulatory elements in the TRPV4 intrinsically disordered N-terminus modulate lipid binding and channel activity through transient long-range interactions

Project description:Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are important for the functional regulation of membrane receptors. Among the TRP Vanilloid channels involved in thermo- and osmosensation, TRPV4 features the largest N-terminal IDR of ~150 residues. Here, we elucidate the structural ensemble of the TRPV4 IDR through an integrated structural biology approach. Novel structural and functional properties can be assigned to distinct IDR regions. Along the length of the entire IDR, a hierarchical interaction network of structurally and functionally coupled antagonistic regulatory modules can be mapped. Long-range transient crosstalk between these regulatory elements mediates channel responses to osmotic stimuli. Most notably, a highly conserved regulatory patch in the N-terminal IDR asserts dominant negative control over lipid binding and channel activity by acting on a sensitizing PIP2 binding site in the C-terminal IDR. This work demonstrates the importance of IDRs and “IDR cartography” for understanding TRP channel function and regulation.

Structural dynamics of the chicken TRPV4 N-terminal domain

Project description:Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are essential for membrane receptor regulation but often remain unresolved in structural studies. TRPV4, a member of the TRP vanilloid channel family involved in thermo- and osmosensation, has a large N-terminal IDR of approximately 150 amino acids. With an integrated structural biology approach, we analyze the structural ensemble of the TRPV4 IDR and identify a network of regulatory elements that modulate channel activity in a hierarchical lipid-dependent manner through transient long-range interactions. A highly conserved autoinhibitory patch acts as a master regulator by competing with PIP2 binding to attenuate channel activity. Molecular dynamics simulations show that loss of the interaction between PIP2-binding site and the membrane reduces the force exerted by the IDR on the structured core of TRPV4. This work demonstrates that IDR structural dynamics are coupled to TRPV4 activity and highlights the importance of IDRs for TRP channel function and regulation.

TAF2 condensation in nuclear speckles links basal transcription factor TFIID to RNA splicing [CUT&RUN]

Project description:TFIID is an essential basal transcription factor, crucial for RNA polymerase II (pol II) promoter recognition and transcription initiation. The TFIID complex consists of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and 13 TBP-associated factors (TAFs) that contain intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) with currently unknown functions. Here, we show that a conserved IDR drives TAF2 condensation in nuclear speckles, independently of other TFIID subunits. Quantitative mass spectrometry analyses reveal that the TAF2 IDR specifically interacts with the nuclear speckle and spliceosome-associated protein SRRM2. Consequently, TAF2 recruits SRRM2 to TFIID to form non-canonical TFIID-SRRM2 complexes. Reduced SRRM2 recruitment elicits alternative splicing events in RNAs coding for proteins involved in transcription and transmembrane transport. Further, genome-wide binding analyses suggest TAF2 shuttling between nuclear speckles and pol II promoters. This study identifies an IDR of the basal transcription machinery as a molecular guide for protein partitioning into nuclear compartments, controlling protein complex composition and pre-mRNA splicing.

TAF2 condensation in nuclear speckles links basal transcription factor TFIID to RNA splicing

Project description:TFIID is an essential eukaryotic transcription factor, which is required for RNA polymerase II promoter recognition and activation. As a multiprotein complex, TFIID contains several intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs), but the functions of these IDRs are unknown. Here, we show that a conserved IDR drives the TFIID subunit TAF2 to nuclear speckles, where it forms biomolecular condensates, separate from the TFIID complex. Quantitative mass spectrometry analyses reveal that the TAF2 IDR is required for the interaction with the nuclear speckle and spliceosome-associated protein SRRM2, which is thereby recruited to TFIID. The formation of SRRM2-free TFIID complexes elicits a set of unique alternative splicing events. These include events in RNAs coding for proteins involved in transcription and transmembrane transport. Together, these data identify an IDR of the basal transcription machinery as a molecular switch between nuclear compartments to control protein complex composition and pre-mRNA splicing.

BS3 crosslinking of the Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C)

Project description:In order to investigate the dynamic regulation of the APC/C by intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) upon phosphorylation, we employed cross-linking mass spectrometry (CLMS). Given that the phosphorylation of Apc1-300L (IDR in Apc1) is a key determinant in its release from the co-activator binding site, we compared the interaction profiles of unphosphorylated and hyper-phosphorylated rAPC/C_WT complexes. The CLMS analysis highlights not only known interactions consistently identified within APC/C complexes, regardless of phosphorylation status, but also dynamic IDR-mediated interactions that are lost upon phosphorylation or are phosphorylation-dependent. Additionally, the data indicate that phosphorylation significantly reduces Apc1-300L's interaction with Apc8-L (IDR in Apc8) and Apc6, suggesting Apc1-300L's dislocation from the co-activator Cdc20 binding site, thereby facilitating Cdc20 loading onto the APC/C.

Activation domains and Coactivator direct genomic localization of fused DNA binding domains, defining the subset of activated promoters [RNA-seq]

Project description:Activation domains (ADs) within transcription factors (TFs) induce gene expression by recruiting coactivators to specific regulatory regions. Within the prevailing model, TF-coactivator recruitment is independent of DNA binding, which is consistent with direct AD-coactivator interactions seen outside cells. However, this independence was not yet tested within the genomic context. Here, we targeted two Med15-interacting ADs to hundreds of budding yeast promoters through fusions with multiple DNA binding domains (DBDs), gradually controlling their abundances using libraries of synthetic promoters. Genomic profiling revealed that AD identity influences DNA binding locations and that transcription induction and Med15 recruitment are restricted to a subset of DBD-bound promoters displaying flexible expression, multiple-TFs binding, and fuzzy nucleosome architecture. Further, when fused to a DBD, Med15 redirected binding towards promoters of fuzzy nucleosomes, overcoming DBD-based preferences. Our results demonstrate that ADs and their recruited coactivators posses an inherent preference for genomic localization and, therefore, define the subset of induced promoters.
