Purification of Cross-linked RNA-Protein Complexes by Phenol-Toluol Extraction

ABSTRACT: Recent methodological advances allowed the identification of an increasing number of RNAbinding proteins (RBPs) and their RNA-binding sites. RNA interactome capture is, however, limited to proteins interacting with polyadenylated RNAs while RBPs associating with nonadenylate RNA classes cannot be purified. Moreover, the vast majority of species that lack poly-A tails in their mRNAs (including all archea and bacteria) are not amenable to RNA interactome capture studies. To overcome these limitations, we have developed a novel protocol, Phenol Toluol extraction (PTex), that does not rely on a specific RNA sequence or motif for isolation of cross-linked ribonucleoproteins (RNPs), but rather purifies them based entirely on their physicochemical properties. PTex captures RBPs that bind to poly-A RNA, but also proteins associating with non-adenylate RNA species (rRNA, tRNA) as short as 30nt. PTex can be used to simplify complex work ows such as PAR-CLIP and reliably recovers RBPs from tissues and bacteria thus significantly expanding the experimental toolbox to species that could previously not be assessed experimentally.

Recent methodological advances allowed the identification of an increasing number of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and their RNA-binding sites. Most of those methods rely, however, on capturing proteins associated to polyadenylated RNAs which neglects RBPs bound to non-adenylate RNA classes (tRNA, rRNA, pre-mRNA) as well as the vast majority of species that lack poly-A tails in their mRNAs (including all archea and bacteria). We have developed the Phenol Toluol extraction (PTex) protocol that does ...[more]

Project description:Here, we performed RNA-interactome capture (RIC) on nuclear fractions from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). The poly(A)+ RNA-bound proteome was determined by UV light-mediated cross-linking (CL) of RNAs to proteins in living cells, followed by nuclei isolation, oligo(dT) purification of poly(A)-RNA-protein complexes, and mass spectrometry analysis of captured proteins. As a control, we applied a similar strategy to non-cross-linked (non-CL) samples. RIC was performed in four independent biological replicates. This data accompanies the manuscript: "Uncovering the RNA-binding protein landscape in the pluripotency network of human embryonic stem cells". Abstract: "Embryonic stem cell (ESC) self-renewal and cell-fate decisions are driven by a broad array of molecular signals. While transcriptional regulators have been extensively studied in human ESCs (hESCs), the extent to which RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) contribute to human pluripotency remains unclear. Here, we carry out a proteome-wide screen and identify 810 proteins that directly bind RNA in hESCs. We reveal that RBPs are preferentially expressed in hESCs and dynamically regulated during exit from pluripotency and early lineage specification. Moreover, we show that nearly 200 RBPs are affected by knockdown of OCT4, a master regulator of pluripotency, several dozen of which are directly bound by this factor. Intriguingly, over 20 percent of the proteins detected in our study are putative DNA- and RNA-binding proteins (DRBPs), among them key transcription factors (TFs). Using fluorescently labeled RNA and seCLIP (single-end enhanced crosslinking and immunoprecipitation) experiments, we discover that the pluripotency-associated STAT3 and OCT4 TFs interact with RNA in hESCs and confirm the direct binding of STAT3 to the conserved NORAD long-noncoding RNA. Taken together, our findings indicate that RBPs have a more widespread role in human pluripotency than previously appreciated, reinforcing the importance of post-transcriptional regulation in stem cell biology".
