The trypanosome Variant Surface Glycoprotein mRNA is stabilized by an essential unconventional RNA-binding protein

ABSTRACT: Salivarian trypanosomes cause human sleeping sickness and economically important livestock diseases, transmitted by Tsetse flies and replicating extracellularly throughout the life cycle. The surface of "bloodstream forms", which live within mammals, is coated by a monolayer of a Variant Surface Glycoprotein (VSG). Switching of the expressed VSG gene enables the parasites to evade adaptive immunity. Up until now, the mechanism by which VSG mRNA stability is maintained was unknown. To identify proteins specifically interacting with VSG mRNA (and alpha tubulin as control), we performed RNA-antisense purifications (RAP) following instructions published by McHugh et al. 2018 with some modifications.

RNA antisnse puriification of Tau exon 10 pre-mRNA

Project description:In this study, we demonstrated the use of the RNA Antisense Purification by Mass Spectrometry (RAP-MS) method to identify proteins involved in specific alternative splicing events.

The long non-coding RNA HOXB-AS3 regulates ribosomal RNA transcription in NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:In this work we dissect the functional role of the HOXB-AS3 long non coding RNA in patients with NPM1-mutated (NPM1mut) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We show that HOXB-AS3 regulates the proliferative capacity of NPM1mut AML blasts in vitro and in vivo. HOXB-AS3 was found to interact with the ErbB3-binding protein 1 (EBP1) and guide EBP1 to the ribosomal DNA locus. Via this mechanism HOXB-AS3 regulates ribosomal RNA transcription and de novo protein synthesis. We propose that in the context of NPM1 mutations, HOXB-AS3 overexpression acts as a compensatory mechanism, which allows adequate protein production in leukemic blasts.

A conserved long intergenic non-coding RNA containing snoRNA sequences, lncCOBRA1, affects Arabidopsis germination and development

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are an increasingly studied group of non-protein coding transcripts with a wide variety of molecular functions gaining attention for their roles in numerous biological processes. Nearly 6,000 lncRNAs have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana but many have yet to be studied. Here, we examine a class of previously uncharacterized lncRNAs termed CONSERVED IN BRASSICA RAPA (lncCOBRA) transcripts that were previously identified for their high level of sequence conservation in the related crop species Brassica rapa, their nuclear-localization and protein-bound nature. In particular, we focus on lncCOBRA1 and demonstrate that its abundance is highly tissue and developmental specific, with particularly high levels early in germination. lncCOBRA1 contains two snoRNAs domains within it, making it the first sno-lincRNA example in a non-mammalian system. However, we find that it is processed differently than its mammalian counterparts. We further show that plants lacking lncCOBRA1 display patterns of delayed gemination and are overall smaller than wild-type plants. Lastly, we identify the proteins that interact with lncCOBRA1 and propose a novel mechanism of lincRNA action in which it may act as a scaffold with the RACK1A protein to regulate germination and development, possibly through a role in ribosome biogenesis.

Functional and molecular dissection of viral lncRNAs throughout HCMV life cycle

Project description:Small, compact genomes confer a selective advantage to viruses, yet human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) expresses the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) RNA1.2, RNA2.7, RNA4.9, and RNA5.0. These lncRNAs account for majority of the viral transcriptome, but their functions remain largely unknown. Here, we showed that HCMV lncRNAs, except for RNA5.0, are required throughout the entire viral life cycle. Deletion of each lncRNA resulted in a decrease in viral progeny during lytic replication and failing to efficiently establish latent reservoirs and reactivate. Nanopore direct RNA sequencing of native lncRNA molecules revealed that each lncRNA exhibited a dynamic modification landscape, depending on the state of infection. Global analysis of the lncRNA interactome identified 32, 11, and 89 host factors that specifically bind to RNA1.2, RNA2.7, and RNA4.9, respectively. Moreover, 52 proteins commonly bound to the three lncRNAs were identified, including 11 antiviral immunity-related proteins. Our molecular analyses found that three lncRNAs are modified with N⁶-methyladenosine (m6A) and interact with m6A readers in all infection states. In-depth functional analysis revealed that m6A–mediated lncRNA stabilization as the key mechanism by which lncRNAs are maintained at high levels. Our study lays the groundwork for understanding viral lncRNA–mediated regulation of host-virus interaction throughout the HCMV life cycle.

TERRA interactome in human ALT cancer cells identified by iDRiP-MS method

Project description:Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres (ALT) cancer cells are a subset of cancers that depend on the homologous recombination mechanism to extend their telomere length independent of telomerase. ALT cells contain elevated levels of the telomeric-repeat containing long noncoding RNA (TERRA), which is an RNA transcribed by RNA polymerase II and can form RNA:DNA (R-loops) hybrids at telomeres. Lines of evidence have shown that the formation of R-loops at telomeres could be one of the mechanisms to trigger DNA repair to lengthen telomeres. We perform iDRiP-MS, a method to capture specific RNA interacting protein by UV light crosslinking using antisense probe capture (Chu et al., 2017a; Minajigi et al., 2015), to explore the TERRA interactomes in human ALT cancer cell. Our TERRA interactome data reveals that TERRA interacts with an extensive subset of DNA repair proteins in ALT cells including the endonuclease XPF, suggesting that TERRA R-loops activate DDR via XPF to promote homologous recombination and telomere replication to drive ALT.

Ptbp2 modulates axon growth in motoneurons through axonal localization and translation of Hnrnpr

Project description:The neuronal RNA-binding protein Ptbp2 regulates neuronal differentiation by modulating alternative splicing programs in the nucleus. Such programs contribute to axonogenesis by adjusting the levels of protein isoforms involved in axon growth and branching. While its functions in alternative splicing have been described in detail, cytosolic roles of Ptbp2 for axon growth have remained elusive. Here, we show that Ptbp2 is located in the cytosol and in axons of motoneurons, and that depletion of Ptbp2 affects axon growth. We identified Ptbp2 as a major interactor of the 3' UTR of Hnrnpr mRNA. Axonal localization of Hnrnpr mRNA and local synthesis of hnRNP R protein are strongly reduced when Ptbp2 is depleted, leading to defective axon growth. Ptbp2 regulates hnRNP R translation by mediating the association of Hnrnpr with ribosomes in a manner dependent on the translation factor eIF5A2. Our data thus, suggest a mechanism whereby Ptbp2 modulates axon growth by fine-tuning the mRNA transport and local synthesis of an RNA-binding protein.

Proteomic Analysis of RAP (RNA Antisense Purification) isolated RNPs (RiboNucleotide Particles) harboring the novel lncRNA mimi

Project description:In neurons, mRNAs and associated RNA-binding proteins assemble into ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules essential to regulate mRNA trafficking, local translation, and turnover. Dysregulation of RNA-protein condensation can disturb synaptic plasticity. We report that the novel lncRNA mimi is a constitutive and essential component of large cytoplasmic condensates (RNP granules) in fly neurons. In order to identify direct mimi RNA binders we employ RAP assisted purification of mimi RNPs subsequent to UV-crosslinking of adult fly brain tissue (non UV irradiated samples serve as control). Applying relative Max Quant LFQ quantification (Max LFQ) we carry out a differential proteomic analysis of mimi RNP complexes in UV-irradiated versus non irradiated fly brains.
