Altered mRNA transport and local translation in i3Neurons with RNA binding protein knockdown

ABSTRACT: Neurons rely on mRNA transport and local translation to facilitate rapid protein synthesis in processes far from the cell body. These processes allow precise spatial and temporal control of translation and are mediated by RNA binding proteins (RBPs), including those associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we use proteomics, transcriptomics, and microscopy to investigate the impact of RBP depletion on mRNA transport and local translation in iPSC-derived neurons. We find thousands of transcripts enriched in neurites and that many of these transcripts are locally translated, possibly due to the shorter length of transcripts in neurites. Loss of frontotemporal dementia/amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD/ALS)-associated RBPs TDP-43 and hnRNPA1 lead to distinct alterations in the neuritic proteome and transcriptome. TDP-43 knockdown (KD) leads to slightly increased neuritic mRNA and translation. In contrast, hnRNPA1 leads to more moderate effects on local mRNA profiles, possibly due to compensation by hnRNPA3. These results highlight the crucial role of FTD/ALS-associated RBPs in mRNA transport and local translation in neurons and the importance of these processes in neuron health and disease.

RNA localization is a key determinant of neurite-enriched proteome - RNAseq

Project description:RNA localization and local translation are important biological processes that underlie establishment of body axis, cell migration and synaptic plasticity. However, it is unclear to which extent mRNA localization contributes toward local proteome and how much of protein localization is achieved via protein transport or local translation of uniformly distributed mRNAs. To address this question, we performed genome-wide analysis of the local proteome, transcriptome, and translation rates in neurites and cell bodies of neurons differentiated from mouse embryonic stem cells.

Muscleblind-like proteins use modular domains to localize RNAs by riding kinesins and docking to membranes

Project description:RNA transport and local translation provide spatial control of gene expression, and RNA binding proteins (RBPs) act as critical adapters in this multi-step process. Muscleblind-like (MBNL) RNA binding proteins, implicated in Myotonic Dystrophy and cancer, localize RNAs to myoblast membranes and distal neurites, through unknown mechanisms. We found that MBNLs form motile and anchored granules in neurons and myoblasts, and selectively associate with kinesins Kif1bα and Kif1c through its zinc finger (ZnF) domains. Other RBPs with similar ZnFs also associate with these kinesins, implicating a motor-RBP specificity code. Live cell imaging and fractionation revealed that membrane anchoring is mediated through the unstructured carboxy-terminal tail of MBNL1. Both kinesin- and membrane-recruitment functions were reconstituted using MBNL-MS2 coat protein fusions; this approach, termed RBP Module Recruitment and Imaging (RBP-MRI), decouples RNA binding, kinesin recruitment, and membrane anchoring functions, while also establishing general strategies for studying multi-functional, modular domains of RBPs.

Growth cone localization of the mRNA encoding a chromatin regulator modulates neurite outgrowth

Project description:Neurons exploit mRNA localization and local translation to spatio-temporally regulate gene expression during development. Local translation and retrograde transport of transcription factors regulate nuclear gene expression in response to signaling events at distal neuronal ends. Whether epigenetic factors could also be involved in such regulation is not known. We report that the mRNA encoding the high mobility group N5 (HMGN5) chromatin binding protein localizes to growth cones of both neuronal-like cells and of hippocampal neurons. We show that Hmgn5 3’UTR drives growth cone localization and translation of a reporter gene, and that HMGN5 can be retrogradely transported into the nucleus along neurites. Loss of HMGN5 function induces transcriptional changes and impairs neurite outgrowth while HMGN5 overexpression induces neurite outgrowth and global chromatin decompaction. Interestingly, control of both neurite outgrowth and chromatin structure is dependent on proper growth cone localization of Hmgn5 mRNA. Our results provide the first evidence that mRNA localization and local translation might serve as a mechanism to couple the dynamic neuronal outgrowth process with chromatin regulation in the nucleus.

TDP-43, an ALS/FTD causal gene, regulates SREBF2-mediated cholesterol metabolism in the CNS

Project description:Maintaining cholesterol homeostasis is essential for health of all animal cells. Because of blood-brain barrier, de novo cholesetrol biosynthesis and intercellular cholesterol transport is thought to maintain cholesterol homeostasis within the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we showed that TDP-43, the pathological signature protein for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), regulates SREBF2-mediated cholesterol metabolism in the central nervous system (CNS). Unbiased transcriptomic analysis of mice with oligodendroglial TDP-43 deletion revealed a progressive and pathway-wide disruption in the cholesterol metabolism correlating with reduced myelination and cholesterol level. Molecularly, TDP-43 binds directly to mRNA of SREBF2, the master transcription regulator for cholesterol metabolism, and multiple mRNAs encoding proteins in the cholesterol biosynthesis and uptake, including HMGCR, HMGCS1, and LDLR. Depletion of TDP-43 leads to reduced SREBF2 and cholesterol level in vitro and in vivo. The cholesterol reduction can be rescued by reintroducing either the nuclear portion of SREBF2 or LDLR, the latter of which is the receptor for cholesterol-containing low-density lipoproteins (LDLs). Furthermore, LDLR are observed to co-aggregate with pathological TDP-43 in oligodendrocytes of FTD patients and motor neurons of sporadic ALS patients. Taken together, our data indicates that TDP-43 is required to maintain SREBF2-dependent cholesterol homeostasis in the CNS, and disturbance of cholesterol metabolism may be involved in ALS, FTD and TDP-43 proteinopathies-related disease.

Transcriptome-wide view of endosomal mRNP transport [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Spatiotemporal protein expression is mediated by active transport and local translation of mRNAs. Key factors of the transport machinery are RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that recognise mRNAs as cargo for motor-based transport. However, a global view of transported mRNAs with cognate RBP binding sites is missing. Here, we cast a transcriptome-wide view on endosomal mRNP transport in Ustilago maydis by studying the newly identified endosomal RBP Grp1 and the key transport RBP Rrm4 in a comparative iCLIP approach. This uncovered thousand of cargo mRNAs bound by both RBPs.
