Project description:Defects in ribosome biogenesis can trigger a battery of cellular events to alter gene expression and cell growth. 18S rRNA methyltransferase EMG1 is an important assembly factor in ribosome biogenesis. Here, we report that downregulation of EMG1 non-enzymatically leads to decreased N6-methyladensine (m6A) levels in polyadenylated RNA. We revealed the identities of the messenger RNAs with decreased m6A intensities upon EMG1 deficiency using m6A-IP-seq. This group of mRNAs significantly overlap with the CLIP targets of IGF2BP3, which is an m6A reader protein stabilizing m6A-containing transcripts. Furthermore, both RNA-seq and qRT-PCR results suggest that the expression level of this group of mRNAs significantly decreased upon EMG1 deficiency, possibly through the regulation of IGF2BP3. Gene ontology analysis suggests that this group of mRNAs function in a list of cell signaling pathways important for cell growth. These findings collectively suggest that decreased ribosome assembly may influence gene expression via decreasing m6A levels in mRNAs.

Project description:The cranial neural crest cells are pluripotent cells that provide head skeletogenic mesenchyme and are crucial for craniofacial patterning. Here, we analyzed the in vivo chromatin landscapes of mouse cranial neural crest subpopulations. Early postmigratory neural crest subpopulations contributing to distinct mouse craniofacial structures displayed similar chromatin accessibility patterns, yet differed transcriptionally. Accessible promoters and enhancers of differentially silenced genes carried H3K27me3/H3K4me2 bivalent chromatin marks embedded in large Ezh2-dependent Polycomb domains, indicating transcriptional poising. These postmigratory bivalent regions were already present in neural crest premigratory progenitors. At Polycomb domains, H3K27me3 antagonized H3K4me2 deposition, which was restricted to accessible sites. Thus, bivalent Polycomb domains provide a chromatin template for the regulation of cranial neural crest cell positional identity in vivo contributing novel insights into the epigenetic regulation of face morphogenesis.

Project description:The cytotoxic and antifungal peptolides vioprolide A-D were discovered in 1996, however their mode-of-action has so far been unsolved. Anti-cancer effect of the most potent cytotoxic derivative vioprolide A (VioA) were evaluated, showing a prominent potency against human acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells. In order to decipher the molecular mode-of-action, a VioA-derived photoprobe (VioA-P) was synthesized and utilized for MS-based AfBPP experiments. In addition thermal protein profiling (TPP) experiments with unmodified VioA were conducted for target discovery. TPP experiments revealed a strong thermal stabilization of two proteins after filtering. NOP14, the protein showing the strongest stabilization effect could further be verified as target with continuative biochemical experiments. As various protein-protein interactions with NOP14 are essential in ribosome biogenesis, e.g. with NOC4L and EMG1 for proper maturation of 18S rRNA and 40S assembly and export, the interactome of NOP14 was revealed by MS-based co-Immunoprecipitation. Our findings indicate, that VioA treatment leads to a loss of interaction between NOP14 and EMG1, whereas the NOP14-NOC4L interface remained unperturbed. These findings could be verified independently by western blot, also showing that overall protein expression of NOP14, EMG1 and NOC4L remained unaltered upon VioA treatment. Delocalization of EMG1 from the nucleus into the cytoplasm as consequence of missing interaction with NOP14 could be verified by immunostaining.

Project description:Cell type repertoires have expanded extensively in metazoan animals, with some clade-specific cells being paramount to their evolutionary success. A prime example are the skeletogenic cells of vertebrates that form the basis of their developing endoskeletons. Depending on anatomical location, these cells originate from three different embryonic precursor lineages – the neural crest, the somites, and the lateral plate mesoderm – yet they converge developmentally towards similar cellular phenotypes. Furthermore, these lineages have gained ‘skeletogenic competency’ at distinct timepoints during vertebrate evolution, thus questioning to what extent different parts of the vertebrate skeleton rely on truly homologous cell types. Here, we investigate how lineage-specific molecular properties of the three precursor pools are integrated at the gene regulatory level, to allow for phenotypic convergence towards a skeletogenic cell fate. Using single-cell transcriptomics and chromatin accessibility profiling along the precursor-to-skeletogenic cell continuum, we examine the gene regulatory dynamics associated with this cell fate convergence. We find that distinct transcription factor profiles are inherited from the three precursor states, and that lineage-specific enhancer elements integrate these different inputs at the cis-regulatory level, to execute a core skeletogenic program. We propose a lineage-specific gene regulatory logic for skeletogenic convergence from three embryonic precursor pools. Early skeletal cells in different body parts thus share only a partial ‘deep homology’. This regulatory uncoupling may render them amenable to individualized selection, to help to define distinct morphologies and biomaterial properties in the different parts of the vertebrate skeleton.

Project description:Abstract - 18S nonfunctional rRNA decay (NRD) detects and eliminates translationally nonfunctional 18S rRNA. While this process is critical for ribosome quality control, the mechanisms underlying nonfunctional 18S rRNA turnover remain elusive, particularly in mammals. Here, we show that mammalian 18S NRD initiates through the integrated stress response (ISR) via GCN2. Nonfunctional 18S rRNA induces translational arrest at start sites. Biochemical analyses demonstrate that ISR activation limits translation initiation and attenuates collisions between scanning 43S preinitiation complexes and stalled nonfunctional ribosomes. The ISR promotes 18S NRD and 40S ribosomal protein turnover by RNF10-mediated ubiquitination. Ultimately, RIOK3 binds the resulting ubiquitinated 40S subunits and facilitates 18S rRNA decay. Overall, mammalian 18S NRD acts through GCN2, followed by ubiquitin-dependent 18S rRNA degradation involving the ubiquitin E3 ligase RNF10 and the atypical protein kinase RIOK3. These findings establish a dynamic feedback mechanism by which the GCN2-RNF10-RIOK3 axis surveils ribosome functionality at the translation initiation step.
