Comprehensive Identification and Functional Analysis of Fully Disordered Proteins Essential for Cell Survival

ABSTRACT: Proteins have traditionally been understood through their tertiary structures, with well-defined conformations considered essential for biological function. This classical structure-function paradigm implies that proteins with high intrinsic disorder would be less critical for cellular survival. However, recent discoveries have suggested that some intrinsically disordered proteins or even fully disordered proteins without any apparent tertiary structures are essential. Nevertheless, the biological significance of such disordered proteins is not comprehensively understood. Here, using genome-wide CRISPR screening, we demonstrated that highly or fully disordered proteins show comparable essentiality to well-folded proteins. Although structured proteins are more prevalent among essential genes, we found that the proportion of essential proteins is comparable across proteins of varying disorder levels. Focusing on FAM32A, one of the essential, fully disordered proteins identified in our screen, we show that its depletion leads to increased intron retention and downregulation of many other essential genes. These findings reshape our understanding of the structure-function paradigm, highlighting that fully disordered proteins can be essential for cellular viability.

Multiplexed RNA structure characterization with selective 2'-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension sequencing (SHAPE-Seq)

Project description:New regulatory roles continue to emerge for both natural and engineered noncoding RNAs, many of which have specific secondary and tertiary structures essential to their function. Thus there is a growing need to develop technologies that enable rapid characterization of structural features within complex RNA populations. We have developed a high-throughput technique, SHAPE-Seq, that can simultaneously measure quantitative, single nucleotide-resolution secondary and tertiary structural information for hundreds of RNA molecules of arbitrary sequence. SHAPE-Seq combines selective 2â²-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) chemistry with multiplexed paired-end deep sequencing of primer extension products. This generates millions of sequencing reads, which are then analyzed using a fully automated data analysis pipeline, based on a rigorous maximum likelihood model of the SHAPE-Seq experiment. We demonstrate the ability of SHAPE-Seq to accurately infer secondary and tertiary structural information, detect subtle conformational changes due to single nucleotide point mutations, and simultaneously measure the structures of a complex pool of different RNA molecules. SHAPE-Seq thus represents a powerful step toward making the study of RNA secondary and tertiary structures high throughput and accessible to a wide array of scientific pursuits, from fundamental biological investigations to engineering RNA for synthetic biological systems. We sequenced in-vitro transcribed RNaseP in wild type and barcoded variants and probed them with SHAPE-Seq. Comparison to existing crystalography data and previous SHAPE experiments verified the accuracy of the technique and the absence of bias due to our multiplexiing strategy.

RNA tertiary structure and conformational dynamics revealed by BASH MaP

Project description:The functional effects of an RNA can arise from complex three-dimensional folds known as tertiary structures. However, predicting the tertiary structure of an RNA and whether an RNA adopts distinct tertiary conformations remains challenging. To address this, we developed BASH MaP, a single-molecule dimethyl sulfate (DMS) footprinting method and DAGGER, a computational pipeline, to identify alternative tertiary structures adopted by different molecules of RNA. BASH MaP utilizes potassium borohydride to reveal the chemical accessibility of the N7 position of guanosine, a key mediator of tertiary structures. We used BASH MaP to identify diverse conformational states and dynamics of RNA G-quadruplexes, an important RNA tertiary motif, in vitro and in cells. BASH MaP and DAGGER analysis of the fluorogenic aptamer Spinach reveals that it adopts alternative tertiary conformations which determine its fluorescence states. BASH MaP thus provides an approach for structural analysis of RNA by revealing previously undetectable tertiary structures.

Fingerprinting tertiary structure in complex RNAs using single-molecule correlated chemical probing

Project description:Single-molecule correlated chemical probing (smCCP) is an experimentally concise strategy for characterizing higher-order structural interactions in RNA. smCCP data yield rich, but complex, structural information on base pairing, conformational ensembles, and tertiary interactions. To date, through-space communication specifically measuring RNA tertiary structure has been difficult to isolate from structural communication reflective of other interactions. Here we introduce mutual information as a filtering metric to isolate tertiary structure communication contained within smCCP data and use this strategy to characterize the structural ensemble of the SAM-III riboswitch. We identified a smCCP fingerprint that is selective for states containing tertiary structure that forms concurrently with cognate ligand binding. We then successfully applied mutual information filters to independent RNAs and isolated through-space tertiary interactions in riboswitches and large RNAs with complex structures. smCCP, coupled with mutual information criteria, can now be used as a tertiary structure discovery tool, including to identify specific states in an ensemble that have higher-order structure. These studies pave the way for use of the straightforward smCCP experiment for discovery and characterization of tertiary structure motifs in complex RNAs.

Molecular and spatial analysis unveils the functional basis of tertiary lymphoid structures in Sjogren’s syndrome[scRNA-seq]

Project description:The key role of tertiary lymphoid structures in autoimmune and non-autoimmune conditions has been recently appreciated. While many of the molecular mechanisms involved in tertiary lymphoid structure formation have been identified, their cellular sources and temporal and spatial relationship remain unknown. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing, spatial transcriptomics and proteomics of minor salivary glands of patients with Sjogren’s disease and Sicca Syndrome, ex-vivo and in vivo functional studies, we construct a cellular and spatial map of key components involved in the formation and function of tertiary lymphoid structures. We confirm the presence of a fibroblast cell state and identify an undescribed pericyte/mural cell state with potential immunological functions. The identification of novel cellular properties associated with these structures and the molecular and functional interactions identified by this analysis provide key therapeutic cues for tertiary lymphoid structures associated conditions in autoimmunity and cancer.

Single-Cell and Spatial Transcriptome Analyses Reveal Tertiary Lymphoid Structures Linked to Tumour Progression and Immunotherapy Response in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Project description:Tertiary lymphoid structures are immune cell aggregates linked with cancer outcomes, but their interactions with tumour cell aggregates are unclear. Using nasopharyngeal carcinoma as a model, we analyse single-cell transcriptomes of 343,829 cells from 77 biopsy and blood samples and spatially-resolved transcriptomes of 31,316 spots from 15 tumours to decipher their components and interactions with tumour cell aggregates. We identify essential cell populations in tertiary lymphoid structure, including CXCL13+ cancer-associated fibroblasts, stem-like CXCL13+CD8+ T cells, and B and T follicular helper cells. Our study shows that germinal centre reaction matures plasma cells. These plasma cells intersperse with tumour cell aggregates, promoting apoptosis of EBV-related malignant cells and enhancing immunotherapy response. CXCL13+ cancer-associated fibroblasts promote B cell adhesion and antibody production, activating CXCL13+CD8+ T cells that become exhausted in tumour cell aggregates. Tertiary lymphoid structure-related cell signatures correlate with prognosis and PD-1 blockade response, offering insights for therapeutic strategies in cancers.

Effects of HMGN variants on cellular transcription profile

Project description:HMGN (high mobility group N) is a family of intrinsically disordered nuclear proteins that binds to nucleosomes, alters the structure of chromatin and affects transcription. A major unresolved question is the extent of functional specificity, or redundancy, between the various members of the HMGN protein family. Here we analyze the transcriptional profile of cells in which the expression of various HMGN proteins has been either deleted or doubled. The results reveal an HMGN-variant specific effect on the fidelity of the cellular transcription profile, indicating that functionally, the various HMGN subtypes are not fully redundant. RNA was collected from either primary knock-out MEFs or SV40-transformed MEFs and MIN6 cells over expressing various HMGN proteins and mutants and hybridized to Affymetrix arrays. We obtained a double ammount of HMGN proteins in MEFs and MIN6 cells by retroviral infection and subsequent selection procedure. We collected all infected cells (pools, not clones) in order to eliminate the effect of viral integration in the genome.
