Arginine methylation regulates widespread alternative polyadenylation

ABSTRACT: Alternative polyadenylation (APA) has recently been recognized as a universal mechanism for gene regulation, but it remains unclear how APA is controlled. Here we report that the Arabidopsis thaliana Protein Arginine Methyltransferase 10 (AtPRMT10) regulates global APA with its protein partner HLP1, a conserved hnRNP A/B protein. HLP1 binds preferentially to A-rich and U-rich cis-elements around polyadenylation sites, thereby linking AtPRMT10 to the control of APA through protein-protein interactions. AtPRMT10 mutations cause significant proximal-to-distal poly(A) site shifts largely overlapping with those in hlp1-1 mutants. Proximal polyadenylation is maintained by AtPRMT10-directed methylation and is mediated in part by methylation of HLP1 at specific arginine residues. Our findings demonstrate that arginine methylation of an RNA-binding protein adds a novel layer of regulation to widespread alternative polyadenylation.

Integrative genome-wide analysis reveals HLP1, a novel RNA-binding protein? regulates plant flowering by targeted alternative polyadenylation

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is a widespread mechanism for gene regulation and has been implicated in flowering, but the molecular basis governing the choice of a specific poly(A) site during the vegetative-to-reproductive growth transition remains unclear. Here we characterize HLP1, an hnRNP A/B protein as a novel regulator for pre-mRNA 3’ end processing in Arabidopsis. Genetic analysis reveals that HLP1 suppresses Flowering Locus C (FLC), a key repressor of flowering in Arabidopsis. Genome-wide mapping of HLP1-RNA interactions indicates that HLP1 binds preferentially to A-rich and U-rich elements around cleavage and polyadenylation sites, implicating a role in 3’-end formation. We show significantly enriched binding of HLP1 to transcripts involved in RNA metabolism and flowering. Comprehensive profiling of the poly(A) site usage reveals that HLP1 mutations cause thousands of poly(A) site shifts. A distal-to-proximal poly(A) site shift in the flowering regulator FCA, a direct target of HLP1, further leading to up-regulated FLC and delayed flowering. Our results elucidate that HLP1 is a novel factor involved in 3’ end processing and controls reproductive timing via targeted APA.

The transcriptional terminator XRN2 and the RNA binding protein Sam68 link alternative polyadenylation to cell cycle progression in prostate cancer

Project description:Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) of pre-mRNAs yields multiple transcripts differing in their 3' end and its regulation is often aberrant in human cancers, including prostate cancer (PC). In this study, we have uncovered a novel mechanism of APA regulation which impinges on the functional interaction between the 5'-3' exonuclease XRN2 and the A/U-rich motif RNA binding protein Sam68 in PC cells. XRN2 promotes recruitment of Sam68 to its target transcripts, where it competes with the cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF) for the recognition of the AAUAAA core polyadenylation signal (PAS) motif. In particular, the Sam68/XRN2 complex suppresses the usage of strong canonical PASs at distal ends of genes and, consequently, promotes the usage of suboptimal proximal PASs.

Mediator Complex Regulates Alternative mRNA Processing via the Med23 Subunit

Project description:Mediator complex is an integrative hub for transcriptional regulation. Here we show that Mediator regulates alternative mRNA processing via its Med23 subunit. Combining tandem affinity purification and mass spectrometry, we identified a number of mRNA processing factors that bind to a soluble recombinant Mediator subunit MED23 but not to several other Mediator components. One of these factors, hnRNP L, specifically interacts with MED23 in vitro and in vivo. Consistently, Mediator partially colocalizes with hnRNP L and the splicing machinery in the cell. Functionally Med23 regulates a subset of hnRNP L-targeted alternative splicing (AS) and alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) events as shown by minigene reporters and exon array analysis. ChIP-seq analysis revealed that Med23 can regulate hnRNP L occupancy at their co-regulated genes. Taken together, these results demonstrate a crosstalk between Mediator and the splicing machinery, suggesting a novel mechanism for coupling mRNA processing to transcription.

We performed an exon array experiment using HeLa cells expressing Med23, hnRNP L or control siRNAs which were established by a virus-mediated siRNA technology. Each sample was done in three biological replicates. Total RNA of these cell lines was processed and hybridized to the Affymetrix human exon array.

ELAV ChIP-seq in Drosophila melanogaster embryos

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) has been implicated in a variety of developmental and disease processes, such as stem cell differentiation and cancer. A particularly dramatic form of APA has been documented in the developing nervous system of flies and mammals, whereby a variety of neurogenic genes undergo coordinate extension of their 3’ UTRs. In Drosophila, the RNA-binding protein ELAV inhibits RNA processing at proximal polyadenylation (poly(A)) sites, thereby fostering the formation of 3’ extensions that can reach 12 kb in length. Here, we present evidence that paused Pol II plays an important role in the selective recruitment of ELAV to elongated genes. Replacing native promoters of elongated genes with heterologous promoters blocks normal 3’ extension in the nervous system, while native promoters can induce 3’ extension in ectopic tissues expressing ELAV. Computational analyses suggest that the promoter regions of elongated genes tend to contain paused Pol II and associated cis-regulatory elements such as GAGA. ELAV ChIP-Seq assays indicate pervasive binding to the promoter regions of extended genes. Our study provides the first evidence for a regulatory link between promoter-proximal pausing and APA. ELAV ChIP-Seq assays were conducted with nuclei obtained from 6-8 hr and 10-12 hr embryos

UTRseq_human_brain

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) contributes to post-transcriptional regulation, but its role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is largely unknown. Using high-resolution SQUARE multiple 3’ primer-based sequencing, we discovered massive APA differences in temporal gyrus tissues from demented AD patients compared to either healthy controls or non-demented donors with AD neuropathology (NDWP). Advanced statistics, microfluidics RT-PCR and protein measurements validated known and novel APA-modified 3’-intact transcripts. Moreover, APA modifications, more than total transcript counts, distinguished AD patients from both controls and NDWP donors and identified cell type-characteristic, cognition-associated and neuropathology-related changes. AD-enhanced APA variants included known therapeutic targets of brain, vascular and autoimmune disorders, predicting co-involvement of these target genes in AD progression; AD/NDWP increases in 3’-intact proteinopathy-related hnRNP mRNAs were inversely associated with protein decreases, whereas NDWP-potentiated cognition was accompanied by distinct ATP and mitochondrial variants. APA variations thus provide a novel resource of unique value for both basic and translational neuroscience researchers.

Genome-wide profiling of Alternative polyadenylation sites in mouse female germline stem cells

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is an important post-transcriptional modification implicated in development. Female germline stem cell (FGSC) is unipotent and capable of giving rise to oocyte. However, whether alternative polyadenylation plays a role in self-renew and cell fate determination of FGSCs remain elusive. Here, we used 3T-Seq developed in our lab to profile genome-wide 3a termini of transcripts and delineate APA sites in mouse FGSCs and explored the biological significance of APA modulation in FGSC identity.

Phosphorylation of CPSF6 RS-like domain

Project description:Cleavage factor I mammalian (CFIm) complex, composed of cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor CPSF6, regulates alternative polyadenylation (APA). CPSF6 has a RS-like domain which plays role in protein -protein interactions. This interaction might have role in alternative polyadenylation site selection. The phosphorylation of RS- like domain might play role in protein -protein interaction and thus might have a role in alternative polyadenylation site selection. So we did mass specteroanalysis to analyse phosphorylation sites of RS-like domain of CPSF6.
