Productive mRNA Chromatin Escape is Promoted by PRMT5 Methylation of SNRPB - mRNA Seq PRMT5 pICln RIOK1 CoPR5 kd

ABSTRACT: Protein Arginine Methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) regulates RNA splicing and transcription by symmetric dimethylation of arginine residues (Rme2s/SDMA) in many RNA binding proteins. However, the mechanism by which PRMT5 couples splicing to transcriptional output is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that a major function of PRMT5 activity is to promote chromatin escape of a novel, large class of mRNAs that we term Genomically Retained Incompletely Processed Polyadenylated Transcripts (GRIPPs). Using nascent and total transcriptomics, spike-in controlled fractionated cell transcriptomics, and total and fractionated cell proteomics, we show that PRMT5 inhibition and knockdown of the PRMT5 SNRP (Sm protein) adapter protein pICln (CLNS1A) —but not type I PRMT inhibition—leads to gross detention of mRNA, SNRPB, and SNRPD3 proteins on chromatin. Compared to most transcripts, these chromatin-trapped polyadenylated RNA transcripts have more introns, are spliced slower, and are enriched in detained introns. Using a combination of PRMT5 inhibition and inducible isogenic wildtype and arginine-mutant SNRPB, we show that arginine methylation of these snRNPs is critical for mediating their homeostatic chromatin and RNA interactions. Overall, we conclude that a major role for PRMT5 is in controlling transcript processing and splicing completion to promote chromatin escape and subsequent nuclear export.

Project description:The protein arginine methyl transferase PRMT5 is an enzyme expressed in oligodendrocyte lineage cells and responsible for the symmetric methylation of arginine residues on histone tails. Previous work from our laboratory identified PRMT5 as critical for myelination, due to its transcriptional regulation of survival and early stages of differentiation. However, besides its nuclear localization, PRMT5 is found at high levels in the cytoplasm of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) and yet, its interacting partners and non-histone substrates in this lineage, remain elusive. By using mass spectrometry on protein eluates from extracts generated from OPC and immunoprecipitated with PRMT5 antibodies, we identified 1116 proteins as PRMT5 interacting partners. These proteins are related to molecular functions such as RNA binding, ribosomal structure, nucleotide binding, cadherin and actin binding, GTP and GTPase activity. We then investigated PRMT5 substrates using iTRAQ-based proteomics on protein samples isolated from CRISPR-PRMT5 knockdown immortalized oligodendrocyte progenitors compared to CRISPR-EGFP controls. This analysis identified 169 peptides with statistically different symmetric methylation of arginine residues in the two groups. Those peptides led to 30 unique non-histone substrates of PRMT5. The majority of these proteins were consistent with PRMT5 substrates, previously identified in distinct cancer cell lines (e.g. the transcription factor ZN326), and were functionally related to RNA processing and transport, splicing, regulation of mRNA stability and transcription. In addition, we detected three substrates as unique to the oligodendrocyte lineage and not identified in cancer cells. They included the proline-rich protein PRC2C, involved in methyl-RNA binding, the RNA binding protein KHDR2, regulating splicing events and the heterogeneous nuclear RNA binding protein HNRPD, involved in regulation of RNA stability. Together, these results highlight a cell-specific role of PRMT5 in regulating, not only transcription, but RNA processing and translation in OPCs. (287 WORDS)
