Dual roles of DEAD-box RNA helicase Brr2 in genome stability

ABSTRACT: R-loop is a common chromatin feature consisting of a displaced single-stranded DNA and an RNA-DNA hybrid, and dysregulation of R-loop surveillance results in genomic and transcriptomic instability. Although the RNA moiety of most R-loops originates from linear transcripts, circular RNAs (circRNAs), outputs from back-splicing, can also hybridize with the complementary strand of a DNA duplex. However, how circRNA-associated R-loops (ciR-loops) are monitored remains elusive. Here, we identified the DEAD-box RNA helicase Brr2 as an evolutionarily-conserved ciR-loop repressor with dual roles in inhibiting circRNA generation and resolving harmful ciR-loops. Accumulation of ciR-loops caused by loss-of-function of this dual-action factor induces antisense transcription and premature transcription termination for many genes and generates significant DNA damage, which further leads to a series of defects in DNA replication, cell division and cell proliferation. We propose that functional integration of multilayered regulation by a single protein can be an efficient double protection against genome instability.

High throughput sequencing for circRNAs and mRNAs in XPO4 knockout NIH/3T3 cell [RNA-seq]

Project description:Numerous RNAs are exported from the nucleus, abnormalities of which lead to cellular complications and diseases. We report the identification of Exportin 4 (XPO4) as a conserved circular RNA (circRNA) exportin. Cellular insufficiency of XPO4 causes nuclear circRNA accumulation, circRNA:DNA (ciR-loop) formation, linear RNA:DNA (liR-loop) buildup, and DNA damage. These results provide insights into the mechanism and biomedical links of circRNA nuclear export.

Structural evidence for consecutive Hel308-like modules in the spliceosomal ATPase Brr2

Project description:Brr2 is a DExD/H-box helicase responsible for U4/U6 unwinding, a critical step in spliceosomal activation. Brr2 contains an N-terminal domain and two tandem sets of a helicase-like domain followed by a Sec63 domain with unknown function. We determined the crystal structure of the second Sec63 domain, which unexpectedly resembles domains 4 and 5 of DNA helicase Hel308. The helicase-like domain upstream of Sec63 has clear sequence similarity with domains 1-3 of Hel308. In addition modeling indicates that Brr2 is composed of an N-terminal domain and two consecutive Hel308-like modules (Hel308-I and II). Together this provides our first glimpse of the overall structure of this large and unique spliceosomal ATPase and helicase. Our structural model and mutagenesis data suggest that Brr2 shares a similar helicase mechanism to Hel308, that differs from many DEAD-box proteins. We demonstrate that Hel308-II interacts with Prp8 and Snu114 in vitro and in vivo, potentially serving as a mediator for the regulation of Brr2â??s activity by Prp8. We further find that the C-terminal region of Prp8 (Prp8-CTR) facilitates the binding of the Brr2/Prp8-CTR complex to U4/U6, suggesting a potential role of Prp8-CTR as an auxiliary substrate binding and specificity domain for Brr2. Splicing specific microarrays were used to assess the genome-wide defects in pre-mRNA splicing that result from a deletion of the second Sec63 domain of yeast Brr2.

ATAD5 regulates R-loop by maintaining RNA helicase level and unloading PCNA at the replication fork

Project description:R-loops are formed when replicative forks collide with the transcriptional machinery and can cause genomic instability. However, it is unclear how R-loops are regulated at transcription-replication conflicts (TRC) sites and how replisome proteins are regulated to prevent R-loop formation or mediate R-loop tolerance. Here, we report that ATAD5, a PCNA unloader, plays dual functions to reduce R-loops both under normal and replication stress conditions. ATAD5 interacts with RNA helicases such as DDX1, DDX5, DDX21 and DHX9 and increases the abundance of these helicases at replication forks to facilitate R-loop resolution. Depletion of ATAD5 or RNA helicases consistently increases R-loops during the S phase and reduces the replication rate, both of which are enhanced by replication stress. In addition to R-loop resolution, ATAD5 prevents the generation of new R-loops behind the replication forks by unloading PCNA which, otherwise, accumulates and persists on DNA, causing a collision with the transcription machinery. Depletion of ATAD5 reduces transcription rates due to PCNA accumulation. Consistent with the role of ATAD5 and RNA helicases in maintaining genomic integrity by regulating R-loops, the corresponding genes were mutated or downregulated in several human tumors.

Regulation of alternative splicing by a novel BRR2 interactor C9ORF78

Project description:The RNA helicase BRR2 (SNRNP200) is one of the key remodeling factors of the spliceosome. Here we show its direct interaction with C9ORF78, a poorly characterized protein predicted to be largely intrinsically disordered. We present cryo-EM structures showing how C9ORF78 and the spliceosomal B-complex protein FBP21 wrap around the C-terminal helicase cassette of BRR2 and that binding of the two proteins is mutually exclusive. C9ORF78 associates with the spliceosome, as we confirm via proteomics and RNA UV-crosslinking. An siRNA mediated C9ORF78 knockdown reveals changes in alternative splicing of specific target pre-mRNAs, which in part depend on its interaction with BRR2. In particular, C9ORF78 regulates a substantial number of alternative 3’ splice sites, which might be facilitated through an additional interaction with human PRP22 (DHX8).

R-loop proximity proteomics identifies a role of DDX41 in transcription-associated genomic instabilityR-loop proximity proteomics identifies a role of DDX41 in transcription-associated genomic instability

Project description:Transcription can pose a threat to genomic stability through the formation of R-loops that obstruct the progression of replication forks. R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures formed by an RNA-DNA hybrid with a displaced non-template DNA strand. We developed RDProx to identify proteins that regulate R-loops in human cells. RDProx relies on the expression of the hybrid-binding domain (HBD) of Ribonuclease H1 (RNaseH1) fused to the ascorbate peroxidase (APEX2), which permits mapping of the R-loop proximal proteome using quantitative mass spectrometry. We associated R-loop regulation with different cellular proteins and identified a role of the tumor suppressor DEAD box protein 41 (DDX41) in opposing R-loop-dependent genomic instability. Depletion of DDX41 resulted in replication stress, double strand breaks and increased inflammatory signaling. Furthermore, DDX41 opposes accumulation of R-loops at gene promoters and its loss leads to upregulated expression of TGFβ and NOTCH signaling genes. Germline loss-of-function mutations in DDX41 lead to predisposition to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in adulthood. We propose that accumulation of co-transcriptional R-loops, associated gene expression changes and inflammatory response contribute to the development of familial AML with mutated DDX41.
