The thymocyte-specific RNA-binding protein Arpp21 provides TCR repertoire diversity by binding to the 3'-UTR and promoting Rag1 mRNA expression

ABSTRACT: The regulation of thymocyte development by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is largely unexplored. We identified 642 RBPs in the thymus and focused on Arpp21, which shows selective and dynamic expression in early thymocytes. Arpp21 was downregulated in response to T cell receptor (TCR) and Ca2+ signals. Downregulation required Stim1/Stim2 and CaMK4 expression and involved Arpp21 protein phosphorylation, polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Arpp21 directly bound RNA through its R3H domain, with a preference for uridine-rich motifs, promoting the expression of target mRNAs. Analysis of the Arpp21-bound transcriptome revealed strong interactions with the Rag1 3'-UTR. Arpp21-deficient thymocytes showed reduced Rag1 expression, delayed TCR rearrangement and a less diverse TCR repertoire. This phenotype was recapitulated in Rag1 3'-UTR mutant mice harboring a deletion of the Arpp21 response region. These findings show how thymocyte-specific Arpp21 promotes Rag1 expression to enable TCR repertoire diversity until signals from the TCR terminate Arpp21 and Rag1 activities.

Identification of cellular proteins binding to the 3’UTR of Programmed Cell Death 4 mRNA

Project description:The aim of the project is to identify RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that interact with the 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR) of the programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) mRNA. PDCD4 is an inflammatory tumor suppressor gene. The translation of PDCD4 mRNA is regulated by multiple RBPs. The aim is to identify RBPs which are critical for regulating PDCD4 mRNA translation by binding to its 3’UTR. For this purpose, a biotinylated PDCD4 3’UTR RNA was incubated with cytoplasmic lysate from MCF7 human breast carcinoma cells and the RNA-protein complexes pulled down by streptavidin affinity chromatography. The proteins were then eluted and resolved by SDS-PAGE. One particular protein band, migrating close to 55 KDa marker was cut out and submitted for proteomic analysis by in gel digestion and mass spectrometry.

The RNA-binding protein Arpp21 interacts with and promotes Rag1 target mRNA expression to enable TCR rearrangement [RNA-seq]

Project description:Post-transcriptional control by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is an essential layer of gene regulation in lymphocytes. Here, we show how members of the R3hdm RBP family regulate gene expression and promote the development of thymocytes. R3hdm paralogs with an intact R3H/SUZ domain bound mRNAs of other RBPs including Roquin-1, Roquin-2 and Nufip2, and augmented their expression. Arpp21 (R3hdm3) expression was restricted to thymocyte stages when Rag proteins recombine gene segments of the TCR variable region. Crosslinking and immunoprecipitation of Arpp21 in thymocytes revealed prominent binding to the Rag1 mRNA, and Arpp21 increased Rag1 3'-UTR reporter expression. Consequently, Arpp21–deficient mice showed decreased Rag1 expression in thymocytes, delayed TCR rearrangement, reduced frequencies of cells with TCR expression and a partial block of thymocyte development. The Arpp21 protein was regulated by Ca2+–signals that induced phosphorylation, polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. These findings involve general redundant functions of R3hdm RBP family proteins and show how stage-specific upregulation of Arpp21 in thymocytes promotes Rag1 expression preceding recombination while productive TCR rearrangement ceases this function.

System-wide profiling of protein-RNA interactions in sindbis infected cells reveals host regulators of infection

Project description:RNA viruses rely on cellular RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) to infect the host cell. However, the repertoire of the cellular RBPs exploited by viruses is largely unknown. Using the ‘RNA interactome capture’ method, we profiled in a proteome-wide scale the RBP-RNA interactions occurring during sindbis virus (SINV) infection. We discover that SINV affects the activity of hundreds of RBPs, essentially rewiring the host RNA-bound proteome. Such alterations do not relate to changes in protein abundance but are rather due to subcellular redistribution of RBPs and pervasive transcriptome remodelling. Strikingly, RBPs stimulated by SINV accumulate in the cytoplasmic compartments where the virus replicates and interact with viral RNA. Perturbation of these RBPs can restrict or promote infection; for example, GEMIN5 binds to key regulatory regions of SINV RNAs and inhibits viral protein expression. Importantly, we show that drug based RBP intervention may have potential as therapeutic strategy against viruses.

Global analysis of RNA-binding proteins identifies a positive feedback loop between LARP1 and MYC that promotes tumorigenesis

Project description:In addition to genomic alterations, aberrant changes in post-transcriptional regulation can modify gene function and drive cancer development. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are a large class of post-transcriptional regulators that have been increasingly implicated in carcinogenesis. By integrating multi-omics data, we identify LARP1 as one of the most upregulated RBPs in colorectal cancer (CRC), and demonstrate its oncogenic properties. We perform LARP1:RNA interactome profiling and unveil a previously unexplored role for LARP1 in targeting the 3′UTR of oncogenes in CRC. Notably, we identify the proto-oncogenic transcription factor MYC as a key LARP1-regulated target. Our data show that LARP1 positively modulates MYC expression by associating with its 3′UTR. In addition, antisense oligonucleotide-mediated blocking of the interaction between LARP1 and the MYC 3′UTR reduces MYC expression and in vitro CRC growth. Furthermore, a systematic analysis of LARP1:protein interactions reveals IGF2BP3 and YBX1 as LARP1-interacting proteins that also regulate MYC expression and CRC development. Finally, we demonstrate that MYC reciprocally modulates LARP1 expression by targeting its enhancer. In summary, our data reveal a critical, previously uncharacterized role of LARP1 in promoting CRC tumorigenesis, validate its direct regulation of the proto-oncogene MYC, and delineate a model of the positive feedback loop between MYC and LARP1 that promotes CRC growth and development.

The mRNA-binding proteome of proliferating and differentiated muscle cells

Project description:Muscle formation is a coordinated process driven by extensive gene expression changes where single cells fuse together to form multinucleated muscle fibers. Newly synthesized mRNAs are then regulated by RNA binding proteins(RBPs)affecting post-transcriptional transcripts metabolism. We determined how large gene expression changes affect the catalog of RBPs by studying proliferating and differentiated muscle cells in healthy and dystrophic conditions. Transcriptomic analysis showed that the expression of more than 7000 genes was affected during myogenesis. We identified 769 RBPs, of which 294 were muscle specific and 49 were uniquely shared with cardiomyocytes. A subset of 32 RBPs (half of which was muscle specific) showed preferential loading on target mRNAs in either myoblasts or myotubes. A large proportion of catalytic proteins was bound to mRNAs even though they lack classical RNA binding domains. Finally we show how the identification of cell specific RBPs enabled the identification biomarkers that can separate healthy individuals from dystrophic patients. Our data show how interactome data can shed light on new basic RNA biology as well as provide cell specific data that can be used for diagnostic purposes.

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

Project description: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.

Cold induced RNA-binding proteins influence alternative polyadenylation

Project description:We employed PAR-CLIP, a recently developed method based on RNA-protein crosslinking, to identify Cirbp and Rbm3 binding sites at transcriptome-level. Genome-wide RNA-seq analysis indicated that cold temperature leads to extensive 3’UTR lengthening whereas the loss of Cirbp or Rbm3 resulted in 3’UTR shortening. Combining with PAR-CLIP results, we found that these two RBPs repress the polyadenylation adjacent to their binding sites.
