Alternative splicing in Col-0 and sc35-scl mutant in Arabidopsis tlianaha

ABSTRACT: Serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins are important splicing factors which play significant roles in spliceosome assembly and splicing regulation. However, little is known regarding their biological functions in plants. Here, we analyzed the phenotypes of mutants upon depleting different subfamilies of Arabidopsis SR proteins. We found that loss of the functions of SC35 and SC35-like (SCL) proteins cause pleiotropic changes in plant morphology and development, including serrated leaves, late flowering, shorter roots and abnormal silique phyllotaxy. Using RNA-seq, we found that SC35 and SCL proteins play roles in the pre-mRNA splicing. Motif analysis revealed that SC35 and SCL proteins preferentially bind to a specific RNA sequence containing the AGAAGA motif. In addition, the transcriptions of a subset of genes are affected by the deletion of SC35 and SCL proteins which interact with NRPB4, a specific subunit of RNA polymerase II. The splicing of FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) intron1 and transcription of FLC were significantly regulated by SC35 and SCL proteins to control Arabidopsis flowering. Therefore, our findings provide mechanistic insight into the functions of plant SC35 and SCL proteins in the regulation of splicing and transcription to maintain the proper expression of genes and development.

mRNA-seq data of 14 days old Arabidopsis seedlings in Col-0 and At rz-1b At rz-1c double mutant

Project description:Nuclear-localized RNA binding proteins are involved in various aspects of RNA metabolism, which in turn modulates gene expression. However, the functions of nuclear-localized RNA binding proteins in plants are poorly understood. Here we report the functions of two proteins containing RNA recognition motifs, At RZ-1B and At RZ-1C, in Arabidopsis. At RZ-1B and At RZ-1C were localized to nuclear speckles and interacted with a spectrum of serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins through their C-termini. At RZ-1C preferentially bound to purine-rich RNA sequences in vitro through its N-terminal RNA recognition motif. Disrupting the RNA-binding activity of At RZ-1C with SR proteins through over-expression of the C-terminus of At RZ-1C conferred defective phenotypes similar to those observed in At rz-1b/At rz-1c double mutants, including delayed seed germination, reduced stature, and serrated leaves. Loss of function of At RZ-1B and At RZ-1C was accompanied by defective splicing of many genes and global perturbation of gene expression. In addition, we found that At RZ-1C directly targeted FLC, promoting efficient splicing of FLC introns and likely also repressing FLC transcription. Our findings highlight the critical role of At RZ-1B/1C in regulating RNA splicing, gene expression, and many key aspects of plant development via interaction with proteins including SR proteins. mRNA-seq to look at the transcriptome and splicing differences between wild type and At rz-1b At rz-1c mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana

VAL1 acts as an assembly platform co-ordinating co-transcriptional repression and chromatin 2 regulation at Arabidopsis FLC

Project description:• Polycomb (PcG) regulation is crucial for development across eukaryotes, but how PcG targets are specified is still incompletely understood. The slow timescale of cold-induced Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 silencing during vernalization at Arabidopsis thaliana FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) provides an excellent system to elucidate the sequence of events. Association of the DNA binding protein VAL1 to an FLC intronic RY motif within the PcG nucleation region is an important step. VAL1 is associated in vivo with APOPTOSIS AND SPLICING ASSOCIATED PROTEIN (ASAP) complex and Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1). Here, we show that ASAP and PRC1 functions are necessary for co-transcriptional repression and chromatin regulation during FLC silencing. ASAP mutants affect FLC transcription in warm conditions, but the rate of FLC silencing in the cold is unaffected. PRC1-mediated H2Aub accumulation increases at the nucleation region upon exposure to cold, but unlike the PRC2-delivered H3K27me3 does not spread across the locus. H2Aub is thus involved in the transition to epigenetic silencing at FLC facilitating H3K27me3 accumulation, which in turn is necessary for long-term epigenetic memory. Overall, our work highlights the importance of the DNA sequence-specific binding protein VAL1 as an assembly platform coordinating the co-transcriptional repression and chromatin regulation necessary for the epigenetic silencing of FLC.

Genome-wide Analysis Reveals SR Protein Cooperation and Competition in Regulated Splicing

Project description:SR proteins are well-characterized RNA binding proteins that promote exon inclusion by binding to exonic splicing enhancers (ESEs). However, it has been unclear whether regulatory rules deduced on model genes apply generally to activities of SR proteins in the cell. Here, we report global analyses of two prototypical SR proteins SRSF1 (SF2/ASF) and SRSF2 (SC35) using splicing-sensitive arrays and CLIP-seq on mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs). Unexpectedly, we find that these SR proteins promote both inclusion and skipping of exons in vivo, but their binding patterns do not explain such opposite responses. Further analyses reveal that loss of one SR protein is accompanied by coordinated loss or compensatory gain in the interaction of other SR proteins at the affected exons. Therefore, specific effects on regulated splicing by one SR protein actually depend on a complex set of relationships with multiple other SR proteins in mammalian genomes. SRSF1 and SRSF2 CLIP-seq

RNA-Seq of Col-0, dek3-2, dek4-2, and dek3-2 dek4-2 (dd-2) 7-day-old seedlings in Arabidopsis

Project description:Evolutionarily conserved DEK domain-containing proteins have been implicated in multiple chromatin-related processes, mRNA splicing, and transcriptional regulation in eukaryotes. Here, we show that two DEK proteins, DEK3 and DEK4, redundantly control the floral transition in Arabidopsis. DEK3 and DEK4 directly associate with chromatin of related flowering repressors, FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC), and its two homologs, MADS AFFECTING FLOWERING4 (MAF4) and MAF5, to promote their expression. The binding of DEK3 and DEK4 to histone octamer in vivo affects histone modifications at FLC, MAF4 and MAF5 loci. In addition, DEK3 and DEK4 interact with RNA polymerase II and promote the association of RNA polymerase II with FLC, MAF4 and MAF5 chromatin to promote their expression. Our results show that DEK3 and DEK4 directly interact with chromatin to facilitate the transcription of key flowering repressors and thus prevent precocious flowering in Arabidopsis.

Antagonistic activities of co-transcriptional regulators within an early developmental window sets quantitative FLC expression

Project description:Quantitative variation in expression of the Arabidopsis floral repressor FLC influences whether plants overwinter before flowering or have a rapid cycling habit, enabling multiple generations a year. Genetic analysis has identified activators and repressors of FLC expression, but how they interact to set expression level is poorly understood. Here, we show that antagonistic functions of the FLC activator FRIGIDA (FRI), and the repressor FCA, at a specific stage of embryo development, determines FLC expression and flowering. FRI antagonizes an FCA-induced proximal polyadenylation to increase FLC expression and delay flowering. Sector analysis shows that FRI activity during the early heart stage of embryo development maximally delays flowering. Opposing functions of co-transcriptional regulators during an early embryonic developmental window thus set FLC expression levels and determine flowering time.

Next Generation Sequencing (m6A-seq) Reveals RNA m6A Methylation Patterns During the floral transition of Arobidopsis

Project description:In this study, we identified METTL16 as an mRNA m6A methyltransferase that plays a vital role in the floral transition in Arabidopsis. Transcriptome-wide analysis of RNA methylome in the mettl16 mutant revealed that m6A modification enriched near the stop codon and within the 3ʹ untranslated region. Deficiency of METTL16 leads to decreases in m6A levels of approximately 471 transcripts, indicating that it is responsible for the methylation of a small group of mRNAs. The mettl16 mutant displayed an early flowering phenotype, and the level of FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) was markedly decreased in the mutant. Importantly, METTL16-mediated m6A methylation affects the splicing of FLC, thereby influencing its transcript level to regulate floral transition. Our study identified METTL16 as a novel m6A methyltransferase and suggests a close molecular link between METTL16-mediated m6A methylation and FLC splicing in flowering time control.
