Project description:The U2 snRNA is a basal component of the major spliceosome, which is responsible for >90% human pre-mRNA splicing. A 5-nucleotide deletion in one of the mouse U2 snRNA genes (Rnu2-8) causes cerebellar granule cell degeneration in the NMF291 mouse mutant strain. To identify the altered transcripts in the NMF291–/– cerebellum, we interograted Affy. mouse 1.0 ST Exon arrays with total RNAs from three postnatal-30-day (P30) wild type and three NMF291–/– cerebella. Affy. mouse 1.0 ST Exon arrays were hybridized with total RNAs derived from three P30 female wild type and NMF291–/– mice (biological replicates).

Project description:Identification of common mechanisms underlying organ development and primary tumor formation should yield new insights into tumor biology and facilitate the generation of relevant cancer models. We have developed a novel method to project the gene expression profiles of medulloblastomas (MBs)—human cerebellar tumors—onto a mouse cerebellar development sequence: postnatal days 1-60 (P1-P60). Genomically, human medulloblastomas were closest to mouse P1-P10 cerebella, and normal human cerebella were closest to mouse P30-P60 cerebella. Furthermore, metastatic MBs were highly associated with mouse P5 cerebella, suggesting that a clinically distinct subset of tumors is identifiable by molecular similarity to a precise developmental stage. Genewise, down- and up-regulated MB genes segregate to late and early stages of development, respectively. Comparable results for human lung cancer vis-a-vis the developing mouse lung suggest the generalizability of this multiscalar developmental perspective on tumor biology. Our findings indicate both a recapitulation of tissue-specific developmental programs in diverse solid tumors and the utility of tumor characterization on the developmental time axis for identifying novel aspects of clinical and biological behavior. Experiment Overall Design: Time series with technical (split aliquots) replicates.

Project description:Bergmann glial cells of the vertebrate cerebellum play essential roles in the development and maintenance of cerebellar structure and function. During development, Bergmann glia provide structural support to the expanding cerebellar anlage and also serve as guides for migrating neurons (granule cells). As the cerebellum matures, Bergmann glia become important in dendritic arborization, synapse maintenance and synaptic function. The molecular mechanisms underlying these diverse and important functions of Bergmann glia remain largely unknown. We used microarray analysis to examine global gene expression in individual Bergmann glial cells derived at P6 (a time of extensive neuronal migration and cerebellar growth) and at P30 (when cerebellar development is complete and Bergmann glia play important roles at synapses). After gentle dissociation of cerebellar tissue derived from mice expressing GFP under the GFAP gene promoter (GFAP-GFP mice) (Zhuo, L., et al., 1997, Developmental biology), single GFP-positive Bergmann glial cells were aspirated into microcapillary tubes. Amplified cDNAs were prepared from single cells using RT-PCR and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 expression arrays (one array per cell). Five P6 cells and five P30 cells were used to generate the data presented in this study.

Project description:Alternative splicing (AS) can produce multiple transcripts with different exon-intron structures from a single pre-mRNA. Pre-mRNA splicing is catalyzed by a dynamic macromolecular ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex termed the spliceosome. The spliceosome consists of several small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) that bind uridine-rich small nuclear RNA (snRNA). In U1, U2, U4 and U5 snRNPs, snRNA interacts with the conserved Smith antigen (Sm) proteins via a bipartite Sm sequence motif. In eukaryotes, seven Sm proteins (B, D1/2/3, E, F and G) form a heptameric ring-shaped complex surrounding the snRNA. Here, we performed a tandem affinity purification using SMEB as a bait in Arabidopsis cell suspension cultures. At least 45 known/hypothesized and potential novel spliceosome components were identified in Arabidopsis.

Project description:The Integrator Complex (IC) is responsible for the 3'-end processing of the U1/U2 major spliceosome snRNAs. Maturation of these snRNAs is essential for the proper function of the major spliceosome. Also, there is accumulating evidence that the IC is necessary for normal vertebrate development, however no association with human disease has been reported yet. Three siblings presented with severe intellectual disability, cerebellar hypoplasia and periventricular nodular heterotopia (PNH) of unknown cause. Using whole genome sequencing (Complete Genomics), and filtering for recessive inheritance, we discovered co-segregating compound heterozygous mutations in Integrator Complex Subunit 8 (INTS8) in the three sibs. QRT-PCR showed 2-fold decreased INTS8 RNA levels and in patients’ fibroblasts lower levels of the catalytic subunits INTS4, INTS9 and INTS11 were observed on western blots, indicating that the integrity of the complex is disrupted. Northern blots showed significantly misprocessed levels of U1, U2 and U4. Pathway analysis (DAVID) of expression data (Affymetrix Gene Chip 1.0 ST exon arrays) of RNA extracted from patient fibroblasts showed enrichment of deregulated genes involved in mRNA splicing and posttranscriptional modification. Expression data of (developing) human brain structures (Allen Brain Atlas) show that expression of INTS8 peaks prenatally, especially in the ganglionic eminences, (sub)ventricular zone and hindbrain, similar to the developmental expression in mouse embryo (Emage databse). Interestingly, neuronal precursors from these areas migrate to the cortex and are compatible to affected regions in PNH and cerebellar hypoplasia in the patients. We propose that dysfunction of the Integrator Complex, through snRNA misprocessing and spliceosomal defects, leads to severely disrupted brain development in humans. We used RNA isolated from human cultured fibroblasts, cell-lines were obtained from 3 individuals with INTS8 mutations and from 3 unaffected individuals. R,Oegema Six Affymetrix Gene Chip 1.0 ST exon arrays (patients: 04RD83, 83RD247, 04RD84 ; controls: 81RD193, GMO2037C, 86RD677) were rma normalized on transcript level using the R package oligo (http://www.r-project.org). Top down regulated (n=402) or up regulated (n=281) genes with p values <0.02 were analyzed for enriched gene ontology terms (goterms_BP_all) using DAVID (medium stringency)(down: 329 DAVID IDs, up: 225 DAVID IDs).

Project description:There is good evidence for functional interactions between splicing and transcription in eukaryotes, but how and why these processes are coupled remain unknown. Prp5 is an RNA-stimulated ATPase required for pre-spliceosome formation in yeast. We demonstrate through in vivo RNA labelling that, in addition to a splicing defect, the prp5-1 mutation causes a defect in the transcription of intron-containing genes. We present chromatin immunoprecipitation evidence for a transcriptional elongation defect in which RNA polymerase that is phosphorylated at serine 5 of the largest subunit’s heptad repeat accumulates over introns, and that this defect requires the U2 snRNP-associated Cus2p. A similar accumulation of polymerase was observed when pre-spliceosome formation was blocked by a mutation in U2 snRNA. These results indicate the existence of a transcriptional elongation checkpoint that is associated with pre-spliceosome formation during co-transcriptional spliceosome assembly. We propose a role for Cus2p as a potential checkpoint factor in transcription. Examining the Pol II profile in MT strain and WT strain

Project description:We analysed genes upregulated or down regulated by double deletion of Rac1 and Rac3 (Rac1/Rac3-DKO) in cerebellar granule neurons compared with control, using the external granule layer (EGL) dissected from Rac1/Rac3-DKO cerebellum at P6. Rac1-KO mouse is an inducible knockout, in which Rac1 is specifically deleted in cerebellar granule neurons under control of Atoh1 (also called Math1) promoter. In contrast, Rac3-KO mouse is a conventional/simple KO, in which Rac3 is deleted in all cells in the body. Total RNA from the medial portion of the EGL of Rac1/Rac3-DKO and control cerebella at P6 was extracted using TRIzol (Invitrogen). The quality and quantity of RNA were determined using the Agilent 2100 BioAnalyzer.
