Project description:Fragile-X Syndrome (FXS) is a multi-organ disease leading to mental retardation, macro-orchidism in males, and premature ovarian insufficiency in female carriers. FXS is also a prominent monogenic disease associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). FXS is typically caused by the loss of FRAGILE X-MENTAL RETARDATION 1 (FMR1) expression, which encodes for the RNA-binding protein (RBP), FMR1 (or FMRP). We report the discovery of the RNA recognition elements (RREs), binding sites, and mRNA targets for wild-type and I304N mutant FMRP isoforms as well as its paralogs, FXR1 and FXR2. RRE frequency, ratio, and distribution determine target mRNA association with FMRP. Among highly-enriched targets, we identified many genes involved in ASD and demonstrate that FMRP can affect their protein levels in cell culture, mice, and human brain. Unexpectedly, we discovered that these targets are also dysregulated in Fmr1-/- mouse ovaries, showing signs of premature follicular overdevelopment. These results indicate that FMRP targets shared signaling pathways across different cellular contexts. As it is become increasingly appreciated that signaling pathways are important to FXS and ASD, our results here provide an invaluable molecular guide towards the pursuit of novel therapeutic targets for these devastating neurological disorders.

Project description:Specific histone modifications play important roles in chromatin functions such as activation or repression of gene transcription. These participation must occur as a dynamic process, however, most of histone modification state maps reported to date only provide static pictures linking certain modification with active or silenced states. This study focused on the global histone modification variation that occurs in response to transcriptional reprogramming produced by a physiological perturbation in yeast. We have performed genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis for eight specific histone modifications before and after of a saline stress. The most striking change is a quick deacetylation of lysines 9 and 14 of H3 and lysine 8 of H4 associated to repression of genes. Genes that are activated increase the acetylation levels at these same sites, but this acetylation process of activated genes seems minor quantitatively to that of the deacetylation of repressed genes. The observed changes in tri-methylation of lysines 4, 36 and 79 of H3 and also di-methylation of lysine 79 of H3 are much more moderate than those of acetylation. Additionally, we have produced new genome-wide maps for six histone modifications at more than five times higher resolution of previous available data and analyzed for the first time in S. cerevisiae genome wide profiles of two more, acetylation of lysine 8 of H4 and di-methylation of lysine 79 of H3. In this research we have shown that dynamic of acetylation state of histones during activation or repression of transcription is a process much quicker than methylation and therefore the changes produced in the acetylation may affect methylation but the reverse path is not possible. The experiments described in this study compare ChIP with a histone modification antibody to a control ChIP with a core histone antibody. Budding yeast samples were analyzed in exponential growing conditions (YPD) or after 10 minutes of 0.4M NaCl stress. For each experiment 1 or 2 biological replicates were performed.

Project description:Cisplatin (CP) is a chemotherapeutic drug that is used to cure different types of cancer. CP induces DNA damage and leads to cell cycle arrest. The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (CDKN1B), also termed p27, plays an important role in the drug response ; and increased levels of p27 correlated with CP resistance. In HEK293 cells, we observed that p27 mRNAs levels increased whereas protein level drastically decreased in cells treated with CP; suggesting post-transcriptional regulatory events. To further understand the underlying mechanisms, we applied a biochemical approach combined with mass-spectrometry to systematically identify the RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that are bound to the 3’UTR of p27 mRNAs in CP-treated versus non-treated cells in vivo. We found that 24 proteins, most of them known RBPs such HuR, hNRNPD, changed their association with p27 mRNA upon CP treatement. Furthermore, knock-down of a subset of the identified RBPs led to the inhibition of the CP-induced increase of p27 mRNA levels. In conclusion, these results highlight substantial rearrangement between RBPs and p27 mRNA upon CP treatment and corroborate the importance of post-transcriptional control in cellular drug response.

Project description:Proteomic analysis of murine stress granule and G3BP1 granulome in infected cells. BV2 GFP-G3BP1 cells were either treated with 0.1 mM arsenite for 1h to induce SG assembly or infected with MNV for 9h. G3BP1 granules were enriched by sequential centrifugation and purified by immunoprecipitation using antibodies to GFP (to trap GFP-G3BP1) or IgG (as a control) followed by pull down with Protein A-conjugated epoxy Dynabeads as previously described. To characterize the identity of G3BP1 partners within these, Mass Spectrometric analysis was performed.

Project description:The MCF7 cell line represents a typical epithelial cell line and corresponds to luminal A breast cancer (estrogen-responsive). Overexpression of HAX1 was demonstrated in MCF7 cell line as well as in breast cancer samples, suggesting a role of HAX1 in breast cancer progression. HAX1 is a 32-kDa protein of unknown structure, involved in the regulation of apoptosis, cell migration and calcium homeostasis. It was also shown to bind mRNA. Scarcity of structural elements and the presence of a disordered region, inferred from HAX1 sequence, suggests that HAX1 is intrinsically disordered, and may have many protein-protein interactions. So far about 40 different proteins were characterized as HAX1 protein partners. In the present work, applying immunoaffinity chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, we identified new candidates for HAX1 binding partners in breast cancer cells. Newly identified proteins may be divided into three, partially overlapping groups: cytoskeleton-associated proteins, GTP-ase associated proteins and RNA-binding proteins. These results imply that HAX1 has more protein partners than hitherto described. Subsequent analysis of these interactions may shed some light into molecular mechanisms of HAX1 functions.

Project description:The CSB-PGBD3 fusion protein arose over 43 million years ago when a 2.5 kb piggyBac 3 (PGBD3) transposon inserted into intron 5 of the Cockayne syndrome Group B (CSB) gene in the common ancestor of all higher primates. The CSB-PGBD3 fusion protein binds internally-deleted PGBD3 elements called MER85s in vitro, and induces a strong interferon-like innate antiviral immune response when expressed in CSB-null UVSS1KO cells. To explore the connection between DNA binding and gene expression changes induced by CSB-PGBD3, we investigated the genome-wide DNA binding profile of the fusion protein. 1 ChIP sample and 1 unenriched input control from the same crosslinked chromatin pool

Project description:In order to gain insight into DNA methylation readout, we have established a controlled strategy for profiling genomic targeting of chromatin-interacting factors in vivo. With this approach we determined binding preferences for the methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) family of proteins, including disease relevant mutants, deletions and isoforms. In vivo binding of MBD proteins occurs as a linear function of local methylation density, and is dependent on functional MBD domain M-bM-^@M-^S methyl-CpG interactions. This directs specificity of MBD proteins to methylated, CpG dense and inactive regulatory regions. In contrast, binding to unmethylated sites is MBD protein specific and mediated via alternative domains or protein-protein interactions. The latter is observed for NuRD complex-mediated MBD2 tethering to a subset of unmethylated, tissue-specific regulatory regions, similar to MBD3. These functional binding maps reveal methylation-dependent and -independent binding modes determined by distinct protein domains and revise current models of DNA methylation readout through MBD proteins. Comparative binding analysis for the MBD family of proteins utilizing recombinase-assisted mapping of biotin-tagged proteins (RAMBiO). This set contains maps for 29 samples including wild type MBD proteins, mutants and domain variants in mouse ES cells, derived neurons (NP and TN) and Dnmt1/3a/3b triple-KO ES cells (TKO).

Project description:Tristetraprolin/ZFP36/TTP and ELAVL1/HuR are two disease-relevant RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that both interact with AU-rich sequences but have antagonistic roles. While ELAVL1 binding has been profiled in several studies, the precise in vivo binding specificity of ZFP36 has not been investigated on a global scale. We determined ZFP36 binding preferences using cross-linking and immunoprecipitation in human embyonic kidney cells and examined combinatorial regulation of AU-rich elements by ZFP36 and ELAVL1. Among the targets ZFP36 binds and negatively regulates the mRNA of genes encoding proteins necessary for immune function and cancer, and other RBPs. Using partial correlation analysis, we were able to quantify the association between ZFP36 binding sites and differential target RNA abundance from ZFP36 overexpression independent of effects from confounding features, such as 3M-bM-^@M-^Y UTR length. We identified thousands of overlapping ZFP36 and ELAVL1 binding sites, in 1,313 genes. ZFP36 preferentially interacts with and regulates AU-rich sequences while ELAVL1 prefers predominantly U- and CU-rich sequences. RNA target specificity identified by global in vivo ZFP36-mRNA interactions were quantitatively similar to previously reported in vitro binding affinities. ZFP36 and ELAVL1 both bind an overlapping spectrum of RNA sequences, yet with differential relative preferences that dictate combinatorial regulatory potential. Our findings and methodology delineate an approach to untangle the in vivo combinatorial regulation by RNA-binding proteins. FLAG-HA ZFP36
