Positioning of sperm tail longitudinal columns depend on Nsun7, an RNA binding protein destabilizing elongated spermatid transcripts (CLIP-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Spermatozoid’s flagella assemble in transcriptionally silent spermatids and thus depends on post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Mutations in Nsun7 gene are known to cause male infertility in human and mice. We identified m5C-specific Nsun7 RNA methyltransferase as a protein present in elongated spermatids and interacting with RNAs specific for this type of spermatozoid’s precursor cells. Inactivation of Nsun7 gene in mice leads to upregulation of its RNA interactors, thus indicating that Nsun7 downregulates a set of RNAs in the elongated spermatids. A physiologic consequence of Nsun7 gene knockout is male infertility, which is mechanistically explained by the observed mispositioning of longitudinal columns relative to the axonemal microtubular doublets leading to motility defect.

Small non-coding RNA expression in mouse elongated spermatids

Project description:In order to discover novel small RNAs expressed in elongated spermatids, we isolated elongated spermatids from mouse testis. The small RNA fraction (18-40nt) was cloned and sequenced from total RNA. RNAs extracted from elongated spermatids were used for high throughput sequencing analysis

Tsga8 is required for spermatid morphogenesis and male fertility in mice

Project description:During spermatogenesis, intricate gene expression is coordinately regulated by epigenetic modifiers, which are required for differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) contained among undifferentiated spermatogonia. We previously found that KMT2B conveys H3K4me3 at bivalent and monovalent promoters in undifferentiated spermatogonia. Because these genes are expressed late in spermatogenesis or during embryogenesis, we expect that many of them are potentially programmed by KMT2B for future expression. Here, we show that one of the genes targeted by KMT2B, Tsga8, plays an essential role in spermatid morphogenesis. Loss of Tsga8 in mice leads to male infertility associated with abnormal chromosomal distribution in round spermatids, malformation of elongating spermatid heads and spermiation failure. Tsga8 depletion leads to dysregulation of thousands of genes, including the X chromosome genes that are reactivated in spermatids, and insufficient nuclear condensation accompanied by reductions of TNP1 and PRM1, key factors for histone-to-protamine transition. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) of spermatids rescued the infertility phenotype, suggesting competency of the spermatid genome for fertilization. Thus, Tsga8 is a KMT2B target that is vitally necessary for spermiogenesis and fertility.

TMT-based proteomics analysis of mouse germ cells

Project description:The proteome changes were quantified in RibosomeRPL39L-/- spermatocytes and elongated spermatids using TMT 6-plex, and in spermatogonia, spermatocytes, round spermatids and elongated spermatids using TMT 10-plex by LC-MS/MS.

ClpP-deletion causes azoospermia, with meiosis-I delay and insufficient biosynthesis of spermatid factors, due to mitochondrial dysfunction with accumulation of Perrault proteins ERAL1, PEO1, and HARS2.

Project description:Human Perrault syndrome (PRLTS) is defined by autosomal recessive inheritance with primary ovarian insufficiency and early hearing loss. Most PRLTS disease proteins modulate mitochondrial transcription or translation. Among the genetic causes are ClpP mutations, which trigger also complete azoospermia, whose cellular and molecular underpinnings are unknown. Here, the ClpP-null mouse model was studied by global transcriptomics, proteomics, RT-qPCR, immunoblots, tissue fractionation, testis histology, and was crossed with STING/IFNAR mutants. Spermatogenesis showed accumulated early spermatocytes, versus deficits of desynapsis and kinetochore factors; excess Dazl/Stra8 and acetylSMC3, versus deficient SHCBP1L, were molecular correlates. Spermiogenesis showed few round spermatids, tsHMG/TFAM in elongated spermatids was absent; transcripts for tail/acrosome factors were downregulated from start. Nuclear anomalies included a failed Rec8 induction, early BRDT deficiency, histone H3 cleavage, and cGAMP increase, as antiviral responses typical of ClpP-mutants. However, deletion of downstream innate immune signals STING/IFNAR failed to reestablish fertility. As mitochondrial triggers, we observed accumulation of ClpX, with PTCD1, POLDIP2, GRSF1, ALKBH7, DNAJA3, AURKAIP1, VWA8, and Perrault proteins ERAL1, PEO1, HARS2, partially showing nuclear redistribution. ClpP-depletion is known to cause extra-mitochondrial release of mispacked mtDNA/mtRNA/protein complexes. Now we define nuclear inflammatory responses and meiotic arrest as consequences, similar to observations in mito-mice and mutator mice.
