A point mutation in the nuclear speckle protein and splicing factor SRRM2 is associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and causes dysregulation of synapse-associated genes

ABSTRACT: Multisystem proteinopathy (MSP) is a pleiotropic degenerative disorder which affects the nervous system, muscles, and bones. The identification of risk factors and their molecular contribution to MSP expands our understanding of disease mechanisms. Here, we describe a family with dominantly inherited MSP, in which a mutation in the serine/arginine repetitive matrix protein 2 gene (SRRM2) that co-segregates with disease, is identified. SRRM2 is essential for nuclear speckle formation and a constitutive member of the RNA splicing machinery. To investigate how the mutation in SRRM2 might contribute to MSP pathogenesis, we examined its effect on a model cell line, where the point mutation was introduced in the endogenous gene. Surprisingly, we found that the resulting single amino acid exchange led to the loss of protein-protein interaction between SRRM2 and the splicing factor ACIN1. Transcriptome studies further revealed widespread differential gene expression, which converged on the dysregulation of synapse-associated pathways. Together, our findings identify SRRM2 as a novel MSP risk factor and provide mechanistic insights into how its mutation can be linked to MSP pathology.

SRRM2 Phase Separation Drives Assembly of Nuclear Speckle Subcompartments

Project description:Nuclear speckles (NSs) are nuclear biomolecular condensates that are postulated to arise through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), although the detailed underlying forces driving NS formation remain elusive. SRRM2 and SON are 2 non-redundant scaffold proteins for NSs. How each individual protein governs assembly of NS protein network and the functional relationship between SRRM2 and SON are largely unknown. Here, we uncover immiscible multiphase of SRRM2 and SON within NSs. SRRM2 and SON are functionally independent, specifically regulating alternative splicing of subsets of mRNA targets, respectively. We further uncover that SRRM2 forms multicomponent liquid phase in cells to drive NS subcompartmentalization, which is reliant on homotypic interaction and heterotypic non-selective protein-RNA complex coacervation-driven multicomponent LLPS. SRRM2 RS domains form high-order oligomers, and can be replaced by oligomerizable synthetic modules, the serine residues within the RS domains, however, play an irreplaceable role in fine-tuning the liquidity of NSs.

Alternative splicing analysis of SRRM1 or SRRM2 targets in THP-1 cells

Project description:We reported the joint SRRM1/2 regulation is not the major mechanism of SRRM2-mediated alternative splicing, and that maintenance of splicing condensates by SRRM2 is important for proper alternative splicing. We knocked SRRM1/2 down with three different shRNAs, performed RNA-seq and derived the differential alternative splicing events (DASEs) using rMATS. DASEs of SRRM1/2 were largely different with little overlap, and displayed a different splicing pattern. SRRM2 deficiency induces skipping of cassette exons with short introns and weak 5’ splice. Nearly 25% of the skipped events upon SRRM2 knockdown were unannotated. More than 40% of validated DASEs upon SRRM2 suppression were associated with protein domain change (>50% domain removed by splicing). Domain changes, and especially large region removal by multiple exon skipping is a significant mechanism for protein dysfunction. Thus, alternative splicing is the major mechanism for the maintenance of protein function and cell homeostasis by SRRM2.

VRK1 phosphorylates SRRM2 for the regulation of splicing of DNA damage repair factors

Project description:Vaccinia-related kinase 1 (VRK1) is a nuclear serine/threonine kinase that contributes to genome stability through the phosphorylation of diverse substrates. This study investigated whether VRK1 regulates pre-messenger RNA splicing through serine/arginine repetitive matrix protein 2 (SRRM2), a nuclear speckle-associated splicing scaffold. Messenger RNA sequencing was performed in control HEK293T cells, VRK1-knockout HEK293T cells, and SRRM2-depleted HEK293T cells. Alternative splicing events were analyzed using replicate Multivariate Analysis of Transcript Splicing. Most differential alternative splicing events detected following VRK1 knockout or SRRM2 depletion were skipped-exon events. A subset of skipped-exon events was shared between VRK1-knockout and SRRM2-depleted cells, and the corresponding genes were enriched in DNA repair-related pathways. These data support a role for the VRK1-SRRM2 regulatory axis in maintaining the efficient alternative splicing of DNA damage response-related transcripts.

A germline mutation in SRRM2, a splicing factor gene, is implicated in papillary thyroid carcinoma predisposition

Project description:Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) displays strong but so far largely uncharacterized heritability. Here we studied genetic predisposition in a family with six affected individuals. We genotyped all available family members and conducted whole exome sequencing of blood DNA from two affected individuals. Haplotype analysis and other genetic criteria narrowed our list of candidates to a germline variant in the serine/arginine repetitive matrix 2 gene (SRRM2). This heterozygous variant, c.1037C>T (Ser346Phe or S346F; rs149019598) cosegregated with PTC in the family. It was not found in 138 other PTC families. It was found in 7/1,170 sporadic PTC cases and in 0/1,404 controls (p=0.004). The encoded protein SRRM2 (also called SRm300) is part of the RNA splicing machinery. To evaluate the possibility that the S346F missense mutation affects alternative splicing, we compared RNA-Seq data in leukocytes from three mutation carriers and three controls. Significant differences in alternative splicing were identified for 1,642 exons, of which a subset of 7 exons was verified experimentally. The results confirmed a higher ratio of inclusion of exons in mutation carriers. These data suggest that the S346F mutation in SRRM2 predisposes to PTC by affecting alternative splicing of unidentified downstream target genes.

SRRM2 splicing factor modulates cell fate in early development [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Srrm2 splicing factor is a novel gene implicated in developmental disorders and diseases. However, the role of Srrm2 in early mammalian development remains unexplored. Here, we show that Srrm2 expression dosage is critical for maintaining embryonic stem cell pluripotency and cell identity. Srrm2 heterozygosity promotes loss of stemness characterized by the coexistence of cells expressing naive and formative markers, together with large gene expression shifts, including in serum-response transcription factor targets and differentiation-related genes. Depletion of Srrm2 by RNA interference in embryonic stem cells identified splicing misregulation of specific genes, often linked to exon skipping. These results show that Srrm2 dosage is key in controlling stemness and cell fate decisions. Our findings unveil Srrm2’s molecular and cellular implications in development, shedding light on the involvement of splicing regulators in early embryogenesis, developmental diseases and tumorigenesis.

ArgRS, MetRS, and SRRM2 dependent changes in mRNA splicing and exon usage

Project description:Arginine is involved in inflammation and amino acid signaling, in part through the mTORC1 pathway. In cell-based assays and in the mouse, we found that arginine regulates nuclear levels of arginyl-tRNA synthetase (ArgRS) and that nuclear ArgRS interacts and co-localizes with the Serine/Arginine Repetitive Matrix Protein 2 (SRRM2), a spliceosomal protein crucial for the formation of nuclear speckle condensates. Arginine depletion or ArgRS knock down, both of which decreased nuclear ArgRS levels, mobilized SRRM2 for trafficking from nuclear condensates and altered mRNA processing and splice junction usage while minimally affecting expression of other cellular RNAs. These splice junction changes included a subset that were inversely correlated with SRRM2 knock down induced changes and the affected genes encompassed components of the mTORC1 pathway. This inverse correlation suggests that the nuclear ArgRS-SRRM2 interaction regulates SRRM2 nuclear trafficking and alternative splicing in the physiological response to changed arginine levels resulting from inflammation.

MHCI peptidome of HepG2 with ArgRS or SRRM2 knock down

Project description:Cells need to sense and respond adequately to environmental stimuli. Metabolites provide information on systemic changes, for example during inflammation. We show that depletion of the amino acid arginine during inflammation reduced nuclear levels of its cognate aminoacyl tRNA synthetase, Arginyl-tRNA synthetase (ArgRS). In the nucleus, ArgRS interacted with serine/arginine repetitive matrix protein 2 (SRRM2), a spliceosomal protein and nuclear speckle organizer, in distinct condensate-like structures. ArgRS’ presence in the nucleus impeded SRRM2 mobility. Differences in SRRM2 speckle trafficking were directly reflected in alternative mRNA splicing: splice site usage was regulated in the opposite direction by ArgRS as by SRRM2, suggesting sequestration of SRRM2 by ArgRS as a regulatory mechanism. ArgRS- and SRRM2-dependent mRNA processing changes cumulated in altered metabolism and peptide presentation to immune cells. Our findings indicate a general mechanism in which ArgRS and SRRM2 act together as upstream regulators during the physiological response to inflammatory injury.
