SONAR discovers RNA binding proteins from analysis of large-scale protein-protein interactomes.

ABSTRACT: RNA metabolism is controlled by an expanding yet incomplete catalog of RNA binding proteins (RBPs), many of which lack characterized RNA binding domains. Approaches to expand the RBP repertoire to discover non-canonical RBPs are currently needed. Here, HaloTag fusion pull-down of twelve nuclear and cytoplasmic RBPs followed by quantitative mass-spectrometry (MS) demonstrates that proteins interacting with multiple RBPs in an RNA-dependent manner are enriched for RBPs. This motivated SONAR, a computational approach that predicts RNA binding activity by analyzing large-scale affinity precipitation-MS protein-protein interactomes. Without relying on sequence or structure information, SONAR identifies 1923 human, 489 fly and 745 yeast RBPs, including over 100 human candidate RBPs that contain zinc finger domains. Enhanced CLIP confirms RNA binding activity and identifies transcriptome-wide RNA binding sites for SONAR-predicted RBPs, revealing unexpected RNA binding activity for disease-relevant proteins and DNA binding proteins.

Gene expression profile of SoNar-high and SoNar-low fetal liver blood cells

Project description:To dissect the metabolic state of fetal liver HSCs, we have developed a genetically encoded fluorescent sensor (SoNar) for tracking cytosolic NADH and NAD+ redox states and constructed the transgenic mouse. Based on the NADH/NAD+ ratio, we have sorted SoNar-high and SoNar-low fetal liver blood cells to employ whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to regulate fetal liver HSC metabolism.

Quantifying RNA-Protein Interactions Characterizes Recurrent Mutationsin RNA Binding Proteins in Cancer

Project description:Quantitative criteria to identify proteins as RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are presently lacking, as are criteria to define RBP target RNAs. Here, we develop an ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking immunoprecipitation (CLIP)-sequencing method, easyCLIP. easyCLIP provides absolute cross-link rates, as well as increased simplicity, efficiency, and capacity to visualize RNA libraries. Measurement of >200 independent cross-link experiments across >35 proteins identifies an RNA cross-link rate threshold that distinguishes RBPs from non-RBPs and defines target RNAs as those with a complex frequency unlikely for a random protein. We apply easyCLIP to the 33 most recurrent cancer mutations across 28 RBPs, finding increased RNA binding per RBP molecule for PCBP1 L100P/Q cancer mutations. Quantitating RBP-RNA interactions can thus nominate proteins as RBPs and define the impact of specific disease-associated RBP mutations on RNA association.

RNA-Binding Protein targets in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:The vast landscape of RNA-protein interactions at the heart of post-transcriptional regulation remains largely unexplored. Indeed it is likely that, even in yeast, a substantial fraction of the regulatory RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) remain to be discovered. Systematic experimental methods can play a key role in discovering these RBPs - most of the known yeast RBPs lack RNA-binding domains that might enable this activity to be predicted. We describe here a new proteome-wide approach to identify RNA-protein interactions based on in vitro binding of RNA samples to yeast protein microarrays that represent over 80% of the yeast proteome. We used this procedure to screen for novel RBPs and RNA-protein interactions. A complementary mass spectrometry technique also identified proteins that associate with yeast mRNAs. Both the protein microarray and mass spectrometry methods successfully identify previously annotated RBPs, suggesting that other proteins identified in these assays might be novel RBPs. Of 35 putative novel RBPs identified by either or both of these methods, 12, including 75% of the eight most highly-ranked candidates, reproducibly associated with specific cellular RNAs. Surprisingly, most of the 12 newly discovered RBPs were enzymes. Functional characteristics of the RNA targets of some of the novel RBPs suggest coordinated post-transcriptional regulation of subunits of protein complexes and a possible link between mRNA trafficking and vesicle transport. Our results suggest that many more RBPs still remain to be identified and provide a set of candidates for further investigation. Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc.

Nuclear fractionation reveals chromatin-enriched RNA binding proteins and transcriptional regulatory activity of QKI5 during monocytic differentiation

Project description:Background: Cellular RNA binding proteins (RBPs) have multiple roles in post-transcriptional control, and some are shown to bind DNA. However, the global localization and the general chromatin-binding ability of RBPs are not well-characterized and remain undefined in hematopoietic cells. Results: We first provide a full view of RBPs' distribution pattern in the nucleus and screen for chromatin-enriched RBPs (Che-RBPs) in different human cells. Subsequently, by generating ChIP-seq, CLIP-seq and RNA-seq datasets and conducting combined analysis, the transcriptional regulatory potential of certain hematopoietic Che-RBPs are predicted. From this analysis, quaking (QKI5) emerges as a potential transcriptional activator during monocytic differentiation. QKI5 is over-represented in gene promoter regions, independent of RNA or transcription factors. Furthermore, DNA-bound QKI5 activates the transcription of several critical monocytic differentiation-associated genes, including CXCL2, IL16 and PTPN6. Finally, we show that the differentiation promoting activity of QKI5 is largely dependent on CXCL2, irrespective of its RNA binding capacity. Conclusions: Our study indicates that Che-RBPs are versatile factors that orchestrate gene expression in different cellular contexts, and identifies QKI5, a classic RBP regulating RNA processing, as a novel transcriptional activator during monocytic differentiation.

Fast and robust characterization of RNA targets of RNA-binding proteins by RNA-editing strategy coupled with machine learning in human embryonic stem cells

Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) paly critical roles in regulating the maintenance and differentiation of embryonic stem cells. A critical step in understanding the functions of RBPs is the identification of their bound RNA transcripts. Towards this aim, we developed an inducible strategy named as RNA-Editing-Based-RNA-seq (REB-seq) to capture the potential RNA targets bound by the RBPs-of-interest. Fused with the catalytic domain of ADAR or APOBEC1 that mediate the A to I (A to G) or C to U (C to T) editing, respectively, REB-seq identifies the bound RNAs by transcriptome profiling without the necessity of high-performance antibodies for the RBPs. Using REB-seq, we characterized the mRNAs bound by the m6A readers IGF2BP1, IGF2BP2, and IGF2BP3 in human embryonic stem cells. We also incorporated machine learning strategy to the analysis of REB-seq data to improve the accuracy of target RNA characterization. Furthermore, REB-seq identifies associated single nucleotide polymorphisms that may affect the RBP binding and imply the disease pathogenesis. Collectively, REB-seq coupled with machine learning can be applied to capture RNA transcripts bound by RBPs-of-interest easily and robustly.
