Project description:The nucleus is composed of membrane-less subnuclear compartments, containing intrinsically disordered proteins and RNAs that phase separate (PS) and contribute to specific nuclear reactions. However, whether and how different subnuclear compartments can intercommunicate remains elusive. Here we identified nuclear bodies with PS features composed of BAZ2A, a factor associating with active chromatin. BAZ2A-bodies depend on active transcription, RNAs, and the non-disordered BAZ2A RNA-binding TAM domain. Although BAZ2A and H3K27me3 occupancies anticorrelate in the linear genome, in the nuclear space BAZ2A-bodies contact H3K27me3-bodies. Disruption of BAZ2A-bodies promotes BAZ2A invasion into H3K27me3-domains, causing H3K27me3-bodies loss, H3K27me3 decrease, and gene upregulation. BAZ2A-bodies formation is negatively regulated by the nuclear-speckles associated lncRNA Malat1 that interacts with BAZ2A and mediates BAZ2A association to chromatin at nuclear speckles, which do not contact BAZ2A-bodies. The results unravel how active compartments protect repressive compartments using PS mechanisms that are promoted or impaired according to the type of RNA interactions with RNA-binding proteins.

Project description:To investigate the function of p-hTERT in nuclear speckles, we isolated hTERT complex by immunoprecipitation with an anti-hTERT mAb from nuclear speckles purified biochemically and conducted RIP-seq analysis for RNAs associated with hTERT in nuclear speckles.

Project description:The nucleus is highly organized such that factors involved in transcription and processing of distinct classes of RNA are organized within specific nuclear bodies. One example is the nuclear speckle, which is defined by high concentrations of protein and non-coding RNA regulators of pre-mRNA splicing. What functional role, if any, speckles might play in the process of mRNA splicing remains unknown. Here we show that genes localized near nuclear speckles display higher spliceosome concentrations, increased spliceosome binding to their pre-mRNAs, and higher co-transcriptional splicing levels relative to genes that are located farther from nuclear speckles. We show that directed recruitment of a pre-mRNA to nuclear speckles is sufficient to increase mRNA splicing levels. Finally, we show that gene organization around nuclear speckles is highly dynamic with differential localization between cell types corresponding to differences in splicing efficiency. Together, our results integrate the longstanding observations of nuclear speckles with the biochemistry of mRNA splicing and demonstrate a critical role for dynamic 3D spatial organization of genomic DNA in driving spliceosome concentrations and controlling the efficiency of mRNA splicing.

Project description:We describe TSA-Seq, a new mapping method able to estimate mean chromosomal distances from nuclear speckles genome-wide and predict several Mbp chromosome trajectories between nuclear compartments without sophisticated computational modeling. Ensemble-averaged results reveal a clear nuclear lamina to speckle axis correlated with a striking spatial gradient in genome activity. This gradient represents a convolution of multiple, spatially separated nuclear domains, including two types of transcription ?hot-zones?. Transcription hot-zones protruding furthest into the nuclear interior and positioning deterministically very close to nuclear speckles have higher numbers of total genes, the most highly expressed genes, housekeeping genes, genes with low transcriptional pausing, and super-enhancers.

Project description:The nucleus is highly compartmentalized through the formation of distinct classes of membraneless domains, yet the composition and function of many of these structures is not well understood. Using APEX2-mediated proximity labelling and RNA sequencing, we surveyed transcripts associated with nuclear speckles, several additional domains, and the lamina. Remarkably, speckles and lamina are associated with distinct classes of retained introns enriched in genes that function in RNA processing, translation, and the cell cycle. In contrast to the lamina-proximal introns, retained introns associated with speckles are relatively short, GC-rich, and enriched for functional sites of RNA binding proteins that are concentrated in these domains. They are also highly differentially regulated across diverse cellular contexts, including the cell cycle. Our study thus provides a resource of nuclear domain-associated transcripts and further reveals speckles and lamina as hubs of distinct populations of retained introns linked to gene regulation and cell cycle progression.

Project description:MALAT-1 is a long mammalian non-coding transcript of approximately 8500 nucleotides. It is localized to nuclear speckles despite its mRNA-like characteristics, which usually result in the export of transcripts to the cytoplasm. In the present study, we report the identification of several factors that influence the nuclear speckle localization of MALAT-1, and we provide evidence that MALAT-1 is involved in the regulation of gene expression. Heterokaryon assays revealed that MALAT-1 does not shuttle between the nucleus and cytoplasm, but is stably retained within the nucleus. Analysis of MALAT-1 fragments showed that MALAT-1 contains two distinct nuclear speckle-directing elements (between nucleotides 1961 to 3040 and 6008 to 7011 of the MALAT-1 sequence). The knockdown of the nuclear speckle proteins, RNPS1, SRm160 or IBP160, resulted in the diffusion of MALAT-1 to the nucleoplasm. In addition, we have demonstrated that depletion of MALAT-1 represses the expression of several genes. This repression of gene expression also occurs in response to the delocalization of MALAT-1 from the nuclear speckles. These results suggest that RNPS1, SRm160 and IBP160 contribute to the localization of MALAT-1 to nuclear speckles where it is involved in regulating gene expression
