RNA binding proteins PCBP1 and PCBP2 regulate pancreatic β cell translation

ABSTRACT: Tight control of β cell mRNA translation plays a central role in regulating glucose homoeostasis and β cell health. RNA binding proteins (RBPs) impact translational dynamics and function in networks to achieve their regulatory outcomes, yet an understanding of the RBPs and nature of their interplay in directing β cell translation remain limited. We recently established that the RBP PCBP2 is a key post-transcriptional regulator of β cell function. Here, we investigate the relationship of PCBP2 and its sister-isoform PCBP1 in shaping β cell homeostasis and translation. Pcbp co-deletion in primary β cells gave rise to a severe diabetic phenotype due to compromised β cell viability. Single-cell RNA sequencing of Pcbp co-deficient β cells revealed downregulation of a network of core translation initiation factors and ribosomal mRNAs. Motif enrichment analysis, mRNA-protein interaction, and mRNA stability studies identified that the PCBPs co-impact these mRNAs in part through binding and stabilization. Accordingly, protein translational monitoring demonstrated a requirement for the PCBPs in sustaining global mRNA translation in β cells. Together, these findings demonstrate a requirement for the PCBPs in sustaining the global rates of mRNA translation critical for β cell control of glucose homeostasis.

The Poly(C) binding protein Pcbp2, and its retrotransposed derivative Pcbp1, are independently essential to mouse development

Project description:RNA-binding proteins participate in a complex array of post-transcriptional controls essential to cell-type specification and somatic development. Despite their detailed biochemical characterizations, the degree to which each RNA-binding protein impacts on mammalian embryonic development remains incompletely defined and the level of functional redundancy among subsets of these proteins remains open to question. The poly-(C) binding proteins, Pcbp's (aCPs, hnRNPEs), are encoded by a highly conserved and broadly expressed gene family. The two major Pcbp isoforms, Pcbp2 and Pcbp1, are robustly expressed in a wide range of tissues and exert both nuclear and cytoplasmic controls over gene expression. Here we report that Pcbp1-null embryos are rendered nonviable in the peri-implantation stage. In contrast, Pcbp2-null embryos survive until mid-gestation at which time they undergo a loss in viability associated with cardiovascular and hematopoietic abnormalities. Adult mice heterozygous for either Pcbp1 or Pcbp2 null alleles display a mild and non-disruptive growth defect. These data reveal that Pcbp1 and Pcbp2 are individually essential for mouse embryonic development and post-natal growth, reveal a non-redundant in vivo role for Pcpb2 in hematopoiesis, and provide direct evidence that Pcbp1, a retrotransposed derivative of Pcpb2, has evolved essential function(s) in the mammalian genome. mRNA-seq on fetal liver tissue from 12.5 days post coitum. 4 replicates of WT and 3 replicates of PCBP2 Knockout

The Poly(C)-binding protein Pcbp2 is essential for CD4+ T cell development and proliferation.

Project description:Defining the molecular mechanisms that impact T cell maturation and function is important because abnormalities in these processes can lead to immunodeficient states or autoimmunity. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have emerged as critical factors in thymopoiesis, immune cell lineage commitment and maintenance, and as modulators of immune responses. The RBP paralogs Pcbp1 and Pcbp2 are widely expressed in the innate and adaptive immune systems and are each essential for mouse development. Pcbp1 has been shown to prevent conversion of CD4+ effector T cells into Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg), with loss of Pcbp1 resulting in increased Treg differentiation. To determine whether Pcbp2 also is required for CD4+ T cell development and function, we derived mice with conditional Pcbp2 deletion in CD4+ T cells and assessed their overall phenotype and proliferative responses to activating stimuli. We found that Pcbp2 is essential for CD4+ T conventional cell (Tconv) proliferation, working through regulation of CD4 receptor co-stimulatory signaling. In addition, our data demonstrate a clear association between Pcbp2 control of Runx1 exon 6 splicing in CD4+ T cells and a specific role for Pcbp2 in the maintenance of peripheral CD4+ lymphocyte population size. Pcbp2 deficiency in the CD4+ lineage did not impact Treg abundance in vivo or function in vitro. Last, we show that Pcbp2 function is required for optimal in vivo Tconv cell activation in a T cell adoptive transfer colitis model system. These data lead us to conclude that Pcbp2 is a critical regulator of T cell signaling and function in the CD4+ lineage.

The RNA-binding protein PCBP2 is a regulator of microRNAs partition between cell and extracellular vesicles.

Project description:While it is accepted that Extracellular Vesicles (EVs)-mediated transfer of microRNAs contributes to intercellular communication, the knowledge about molecular mechanisms controlling the selective and dynamic partition of miRNAs between intracellular and EV compartments is still largely limited. As yet, the interactions between specific RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and short RNA sequences, have been proved causal for the loading of multiple miRNAs in EVs. Conversely, although in silico and mutagenesis analysis demonstrated the presence/function of specific sequence determinants causal to miRNAs intracellular retention, the interacting protein/s remained unknown. Here, the RBP Poly-C-binding protein 2 (PCBP2, also known as hnRNPE2 or αCP2), was identified as a direct interactor of the CELL-motif: RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) after UV cross-linking, coupled to RNA pull down, demonstrated that this protein directly binds to miRNAs embedding this sequence and mutagenesis of the motif proved the specificity of its binding. Functionally, PCBP2 knock-down allows the EV-loading of specific intracellular microRNAs. Furthermore, a second requirement for PCBP2 specific binding was identified in SYNCRIP, a previously characterized miRNA EV-loader. SYNCRIP and PCBP2 may contemporarily bind to miRNAs endowed of both hEXO and CELL motifs, as demonstrated by RIP and EMSA assays. Mechanistically, SYNCRIP knock-down appears to limit PCBP2 recruitment. Overall, this body of evidence i) extends PCBP2 known pleiotropic functions to the role of intracellular determinant of miRNAs retention acting as a dominant inhibitor of SYNCRIP function and ii) highlights that multiple proteins/miRNA interactions govern miRNA compartmentalization.

RNA binding protein PCBP2 regulates pancreatic β cell function and adaptation to glucose

Project description:Glucose plays a key role in shaping pancreatic β cell function. Thus, deciphering the mechanisms by which this nutrient stimulates β cells holds therapeutic promise for combating β cell failure in type 2 diabetes (T2D). β cells respond to hyperglycemia in part by rewiring their mRNA metabolism, yet the factors governing these changes remain poorly understood. Here, we interrogate the transcriptomes of control β cells and mutant β cells lacking the RNA binding protein PCBP incubated with low or high glucose for 72 hours.

A translational regulatory mechanism mediated by hypusinated eukaryotic initiation factor 5A facilitates beta cell identity and function

Project description:As professional secretory cells, beta cells require adaptable mRNA translation to facilitate a rapid synthesis of proteins, including insulin, in response to changing metabolic cues. Specialized mRNA translation programs are essential drivers of cellular development and differentiation. However, in the pancreatic beta cell, the majority of factors identified to promote growth and development function primarily at the level of transcription. Therefore, despite its importance, the regulatory role of mRNA translation in the formation and maintenance of functional beta cells is not well defined. In this study, we have identified a translational regulatory mechanism mediated by the specialized mRNA translation factor eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF5a), which facilitates the maintenance of beta cell identity and function. The mRNA translation function of eIF5A is only active when it is post-translationally modified (hypusinated) by the enzyme deoxyhypusine synthase (DHPS). We have discovered that the absence of beta cell DHPS in mice reduces the synthesis of proteins critical to beta cell identity and function at the stage of beta cell maturation, leading to a rapid and reproducible onset of diabetes. Therefore, our work has revealed a gatekeeper of specialized mRNA translation that permits the beta cell, a metabolically responsive secretory cell, to maintain the integrity of protein synthesis necessary during times of induced or increased demand.

: Hypusine Biosynthesis in β Cells Links Polyamine Metabolism to Facultative Cellular Proliferation to Maintain Glucose Homeostasis

Project description:: Deoxyhypusine synthase (DHPS) utilizes the polyamine spermidine to catalyze the hypusine modification of the mRNA translation factor eIF5A and promotes oncogenesis through poorly-defined mechanisms. Because germline deletion of Dhps is embryonically lethal, its role in normal postnatal cellular function in vivo remains unknown. We generated a mouse model that allows for inducible, postnatal deletion of Dhps specifically in postnatal islet β cells, which function to maintain glucose homeostasis. Removal of Dhps did not have an effect under normal physiologic conditions. However, upon development of insulin resistance, which induces β-cell proliferation, Dhps deletion caused alterations in proteins required for mRNA translation, reduced production of the cell cycle molecule Cyclin D2, impaired β-cell proliferation, and overt diabetes. We found that hypusine biosynthesis was downstream of protein kinase C-ζ and was required for c-Myc-induced proliferation. Our studies reveal a requirement for DHPS in β cells to link polyamines to mRNA translation to effect facultative cellular proliferation and glucose homeostasis.

PCBP1/2 and TDP43 Function As NAT10 Adaptors In ac4C Writer Complex Towards mRNAs in Mammalian Cells [293T_acRIPseq]

Project description:Massive numbers of modified bases in mRNAs sculpt the epitranscriptome and play vital roles in RNA metabolism. The only known acetylated RNA modification, N-4-acetylcytidine (ac4C), is highly conserved across cell types and among species. Although the GCN5-related acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) functions as an ac4C writer, the mechanism underlying the acetylation process is largely unknown. In this study, we identified the NAT10/PCBP/TDP43 complex as an mRNA ac4C writer in mammalian cells. We identified RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) affiliated with two different families, PCBP1/2 (poly(rC)-binding protein 1/2) and TDP43 (TAR DNA binding protein 43), as NAT10 adaptors for mRNA tethering and substrate selection. Knockdown of the adaptors resulted in decreased mRNA acetylation abundance in HEK293T cells, with globally reduced density in 5`-untranslated region (UTR) and coding sequence (CDS) and ablated cytidine-rich ac4C motifs. The adaptors also affect the ac4C sites by recruiting NAT10 to their binding sequences. The presence of the NAT10/PCBP/TDP43 complex in mouse testes highlights its potential physiological functions in vivo. These findings reveal the composition of the mRNA ac4C writer complex in mammalian cells and expand our knowledge of mRNA acetylation and ac4C site preferences.
