Project description:The spontaneous mutant Bronx waltzer (bv) mouse line is characterized by deafness and balance defect. We located the bv mutation to the Srrm4 gene which encodes a regulator of alternative pre-mRNA splicing. We found that Srrm4 is expressed in balance and hearing organs (i.e. in the vestibular maculas and the cochlea). Srrm4 is also expressed in the central nervous system including the cerebellum. To identify potential splicing defects in bv/bv mice, we analyzed RNA samples from the vestibular maculas and cerebellums of bv/bv mice and control (bv/+) littermates, using mouse exon junction microarrays (MJAY). In this dataset, we include probe-set level data obtained from cerebellar samples. The processed data represent probe-set intensities that have been normalized to gene expression levels. 8 total samples were analyzed in this series: cerebellums from 4 heterozygous (bv/+) and 4 homozygous (bv/bv) mice at P15.

The processed data represent probe-set intensities that have been normalized to gene expression levels (Inorm). Inorm was calculated using batch-corrected data as well as data that were not corrected for a batch effect. 7 total samples were analyzed: vestibular maculas from 4 heterozygous (bv/+) and 3 homozygous (bv/bv) mouse embryos at E16.5.

Project description:The DNA-binding protein REST forms complexes with histone deacetylases (HDACs) to repress neuronal genes in non-neuronal cells. In differentiating neurons, REST is downregulated predominantly by transcriptional silencing. Here we report that post-transcriptional inactivation of REST by alternative splicing is required for hearing in humans and mice. We show that in the mechanosensory hair cells of the mouse ear, regulated alternative splicing of a frameshift-causing exon into the Rest mRNA is essential for the derepression of many neuronal genes. Heterozygous deletion of this alternative exon of mouse Rest causes hair cell degeneration and deafness, and the HDAC inhibitor SAHA (Vorinostat) rescues the hearing of these mice. In humans, inhibition of the frameshifting splicing event by a novel REST variant is associated with dominantly inherited deafness. Our data reveal the necessity for alternative splicing-dependent regulation of REST in hair cells, and identify a potential treatment for a group of hereditary deafness cases.

Project description:The Bronx waltzer mutation in Srrm4, a gene that encodes a neuronal Ser/Arg (SR)-rich splicing factor, disrupts the expression of several alternative exons specifically in the inner ear. Here we show that the expression of SRRM3 in neurons limits the distribution of SRRM4-dependent splicing. In vitro, SRRM3 and SRRM4 regulated the same alternative exons, yet in vivo Srrm3 deficiency caused neuronal splicing alterations and motor dysfunction, indicating that SRRM3 has non-redundant functions. Mice harboring mutations in both Srrm3 and Srrm4 failed to breathe, and their neuromuscular junctions (NMJ) were malformed. Transcriptome-wide analysis revealed a large network of SRRM3/SRRM4-dependent splicing changes, including the skipping of key exons in the NMJ organizer Agrin. Furthermore, SRRM3/SRRM4 regulated gene expression through neuron-specific switches in chromatin regulatory complexes and by altering the reading frame in several mRNAs. Our findings reveal that the SRRM3/SRRM4 subfamily of SR proteins is central to regulation of the neuronal transcriptome. In this dataset, we include probe-set level data obtained from brain cortex samples. The processed data represent probe-set intensities that have been normalized to gene expression levels.
