Conserved functional antagonism between CELF and MBNL proteins regulates stem cell-specific alternative splicing and regeneration in planarians (dataset 1)

ABSTRACT: Understanding gene regulation in stem cells is key to understanding stem cell biology.Contrary to transcriptional regulation the function of alternative splicing (AS) in stem cells is poorly understood. Here we study function and mechanisms of AS in a powerful in vivo model for stem cell biology, the planarian S. mediterranea. Knockdown of AS factors, computational analyses of massive RNA-sequencing data, phenotyping, and biochemical binding assays revealed a stem cell specific AS program comprising hundreds of alternative exons, intron retention events, and microexons. The conserved AS factors CELF/MBNL are main regulators of this program. We show that they antagonize each other by directly promoting or repressing stem cell specific AS events. Knockdown of CELF/MBNL leads to defective regeneration by affecting self-renewal and differentiation, respectively. Thus, AS is of key importance for stem cell regulation in vivo and antagonistic regulation by CELF/MBNL is likely an ancestral feature of animal stem cells.

Project description:Here, we analyze the RNA-binding preferences of the planarian smed-mbnl-like-2, smed-mbnl-1 (isoform X1), smed-bruli, smed-mbnl-1 (isoform Xins), and smed-mbnl-like-1 protein using RNAcompete. In the RNAcompete assay, a purified GST-tagged protein is incubated with an excess of RNA pool and bound RNA from individual pulldown experiments are directly labeled and hybridized to a custom Agilent 244K microarray.

Differentially expressed genes in myotubes derived from MBNL knockouts hiPSCs generated by CRISPR/Cas9.

Project description:Alternative splicing has emerged as a fundamental mechanism not only for the diversification of protein isoforms but also for the spatiotemporal control of development. Therefore, a better understanding of how this mechanism is regulated has the potential not only to elucidate fundamental biological principles, but also to decipher pathological mechanisms implicated in diseases where normal splicing networks are misregulated. Here, we took advantage of human pluripotent stem cells to decipher during human myogenesis the role of MBNL proteins, a family of tissue-specific splicing regulators whose loss of function is associated with Myotonic Dystrophy type 1, an inherited neuromuscular disease. Thanks to the CRISPR/Cas9 technology, we generated human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) depleted in MBNL proteins and evaluated the molecular and functional consequences of this loss on the generation of skeletal muscle cells. Our results indicated that MBNL proteins are specifically required for the late myogenic maturation but not for early myogenic commitment. By a transcriptomic analysis, we further demonstrated that MBNL proteins are not only important for the regulation of alternative splicing but also for the regulation of gene expression. Together, our study reveals the temporal requirement of MBNL proteins in human myogenesis and should facilitate the identification of new therapeutic strategies capable to cope the loss of function of these MBNL proteins.
