The RNA-binding protein ROD1/PTBP3 cotranscriptionally defines AID-loading sites to mediate antibody class switch in mammalian genomes

ABSTRACT: Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) mediates class switching by binding to a small fraction of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) to diversify the antibody repertoire. The precise mechanism for highly selective AID targeting in the genome has remained elusive. Here, we report an RNA-binding protein, ROD1 (also known as PTBP3), that is both required and sufficient to define AID-binding sites genome-wide in activated B cells. ROD1 interacts with AID via an ultraconserved loop, which proves to be critical for the recruitment of AID to ssDNA using bi-directionally transcribed nascent RNAs as stepping stones. Strikingly, AID-specific mutations identified in human patients with hyper-IgM syndrome type 2 (HIGM2) completely disrupt the AID interacting surface with ROD1, thereby abolishing the recruitment of AID to immunoglobulin (Ig) loci. Together, our results suggest that bi-directionally transcribed RNA traps the RNA binding protein ROD1, which serves as a guiding system for AID to load onto specific genomic loci to induce DNA rearrangement during immune responses.

MiCEE: a ncRNA-protein complex mediates epigenetic silencing and nucleolus organization

Project description:The majority of the eukaryotic genome is transcribed into non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which are important regulators of different biological processes in the cell nucleus as part of the machinery controlling chromatin structure. However, the full extent of ncRNAs function has remained elusive. Here we deciphered the function of the microRNA Mirlet7d as a key regulator of the expression of bi-directionally transcribed genes. We found that nuclear Mirlet7d binds ncRNAs expressed from these genes. The Mirlet7d-ncRNA duplexes are further bound by C1D, which in turn targets the RNA exosome complex and EZH2 to the bi-directionally active loci. The exosome degrades the ncRNAs, whereas EZH2 induces heterochromatin and transcriptional silencing. Moreover, this multicomponent RNA-protein complex, which we called MiCEE, tethers the regulated genes to the perinucleolar region, thereby being required for proper nucleolus organization. Our study demonstrates that the MiCEE complex mediates epigenetic silencing of bi-directionally expressed genes and global genome organization.

RPA accumulation during class switch recombination represents 5'-3' DNA end resection during the S-G2/M phase of the cell cycle

Project description:AID promotes chromosomal translocations by inducing DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) at immunoglobulin (Ig) genes and oncogenes in G1. RPA is a ssDNA-binding protein that associates with resected DSBs in the S phase and facilitates the assembly of factors involved in homologous repair (HR) such as Rad51. Notably, RPA deposition also marks sites of AID-mediated damage, but its role in Ig gene recombination remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that RPA associates asymmetrically with resected ssDNA in response to lesions created by AID, RAG, or other nucleases. Small amounts of RPA are deposited at AID targets in G1 in an ATM-dependent manner. In contrast, recruitment in S-G2/M is extensive, ATM-independent, and associated with Rad51 accumulation. RPA in S-G2/M increases in NHEJ-deficient lymphocytes, where there is more extensive DNA-end resection. Thus, most RPA recruitment during CSR represents salvage of un-repaired breaks by homology-based pathways during the S-G2/M phases of the cell cycle. Chip-Seq of RPA from mouse activated B cells (n = 40), mouse thymocytes (n = 6), and MEFs (n = 1). Different genotypes and/or inhibitors were used.

Genome wide localization of Activation induced cytidine deaminase (AID), Spt5, and RNA Polymerase II (PolII) in mouse

Project description:Activation induced cytidine deaminase (AID) initiates antibody gene diversification by creating U:G mismatches. However, AID is not specific for antibody genes. Off-target lesions can activate oncogenes or cause chromosome translocations. Despite its importance in these key transactions little is known about how AID finds its target sites. To examine AID regulation we performed an shRNA screen. We found that Spt5, a factor associated with paused RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and single stranded DNA (ssDNA), is required for class switch recombination (CSR). Spt5 interacts with AID, it is required for the association of AID and Pol II, and for AID recruitment to switch regions. ChIP-seq experiments reveal that Spt5 co-localizes with AID and stalled Pol II. Further, Spt5 accumulation at sites of Pol II pausing is predictive of AID-induced mutation. Our data suggest that Spt5 acts as an adaptor, which brings AID to Pol II on target DNA. PolII, AID, and Spt5 were immunoprecipitated from in vitro activated B cells. For Spt5 and AID, two different antibodies were used in separate, biological replicates

Epigenetic targeting of activation-induced cytidine deaminase

Project description:Precisely how AID is recruited to these off-target sites is not entirely understood. To gain further insight into how AID selects its targets we compared AID-mediated translocations in two different cell types, B cells and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). AID targets a distinct set of hotspots in the two cell types. In both cases, hotspots are concentrated in highly transcribed but stalled genes. However, transcription alone is insufficient to recruit AID activity. Comparison of genes similarly transcribed in B cells and MEFs but targeted in only one of the two cell types reveals a common set of epigenetic features associated with AID recruitment in both cell types. AID target genes are enriched in chromatin modifications associated with active enhancers (such as H3K27Ac) and marks of active transcription (such as H3K36me3) in both fibroblasts and B cells, indicating that these features are universal mediators of AID recruitmen Analysis of total mRNA and PolII loading in activated B lymphocytes and Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts (MEFs)
