Project description:Arginine is involved in inflammation and amino acid signaling, in part through the mTORC1 pathway. In cell-based assays and in the mouse, we found that arginine regulates nuclear levels of arginyl-tRNA synthetase (ArgRS) and that nuclear ArgRS interacts and co-localizes with the Serine/Arginine Repetitive Matrix Protein 2 (SRRM2), a spliceosomal protein crucial for the formation of nuclear speckle condensates. Arginine depletion or ArgRS knock down, both of which decreased nuclear ArgRS levels, mobilized SRRM2 for trafficking from nuclear condensates and altered mRNA processing and splice junction usage while minimally affecting expression of other cellular RNAs. These splice junction changes included a subset that were inversely correlated with SRRM2 knock down induced changes and the affected genes encompassed components of the mTORC1 pathway. This inverse correlation suggests that the nuclear ArgRS-SRRM2 interaction regulates SRRM2 nuclear trafficking and alternative splicing in the physiological response to changed arginine levels resulting from inflammation.

Project description:Arginine is associated with inflammation, cancer, and amino acid signaling, in part through the mTORC1 pathway. In cell-based assays and in the mouse, we found that arginine regulates nuclear levels of arginyl-tRNA synthetase (ArgRS), and that arginine depletion and inflammation reduced nuclear ArgRS in vivo. In the nucleus, ArgRS interacted and co-localized with the spliceosomal Serine/Arginine Repetitive Matrix Protein 2 (SRRM2) that is crucial for the formation of nuclear speckle condensates. ArgRS mRNA silencing changed specific splice junction usages, and these inversely correlated with SRRM2-induced usage changes of the same junctions. The prominently affected genes encompassed components of the mTORC1 pathway and showed ArgRS, arginine, and SRRM2 are tied together as upstream regulators of nuclear condensate trafficking related to the physiological response to inflammatory injury. This study is the first to demonstrate a regulatory role for an aaRS in shaping nuclear condensate dynamics and RNA splicing.

Project description:Prior work revealed nuclear-localized aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) that checked newly synthesized tRNAs for charging before export to the cytoplasm. To reveal other functions, we sought to identify nuclear proteins that interact with arginyl-tRNA synthetase (ArgRS) in the nucleus. Serine/Arginine Repetitive Matrix Protein 2 (SRRM2), which is stored with RNA splicing apparatus components in nuclear speckle condensates, was found as a consistent interaction partner that co localized with SRRM2 ArgRS in nuclear speckles. Dynamic photo-bleaching experiments showed that, consistent with condensate properties, SRRM2 has a fluctuating appearance in speckles. Knock down of ArgRS impeded SRRM2 speckle trafficking and, coincidently, altered splicing processing of pre-mRNA transcripts. Among the altered spliced variants, those of tRNA synthetase family members were prominent. Thus, nuclear ArgRS shapes the dynamics of a protein in class of nuclear condensates. Also, the work expands the repertoire of nuclear tRNA synthetase roles to include regulation of RNA splicing, including of aaRS family member transcripts.

Project description:HLA-B27 is a class I major histocompatibility (MHC-I) allele that confers susceptibility to the rheumatic disease ankylosing spondylitis (AS) by an unknown mechanism. ERAP1 is an aminopeptidase that trims peptides in the endoplasmic reticulum for binding to MHC-I molecules. ERAP1 shows genetic epistasis with HLA-B27 in conferring susceptibility to AS. Male HLA-B27 transgenic rats develop arthritis and serve as an animal model of AS, whereas female B27 transgenic rats remain healthy. We used large-scale quantitative mass-spectrometry to identify over 15,000 unique HLA-B27 peptide ligands, isolated after immunoaffinity purification of the B27 molecules from the spleens of HLA-B27 transgenic rats. Heterozygous deletion of ERAP1, which reduced ERAP1 level to less than half, had no qualitative or quantitative effects on the B27 peptidome. Homozygous deletion of ERAP1 affected approximately one third of the B27 peptidome, but left most of the B27 peptidome unchanged, suggesting the possibility that some of the HLA-B27 immunopeptidome is not processed in the presence of ERAP1. Deletion on ERAP1 was permissive for the AS-like phenotype. Deletion of ERAP1 increased mean peptide length, and increased the frequency of C-terminal hydrophobic residues and of N-terminal Ala, Ser or Lys. The presence of ERAP1 increased the frequency of C-terminal Lys and Arg, of Glu and Asp at intermediate residues, and of N-terminal Gly. Several peptides of potential interest in AS pathogenesis, previously identified in human cell lines, were isolated. However, rats susceptible to arthritis had B27 peptidomes similar to those of non-susceptible rats, and no peptides were found to be uniquely associated with arthritis. Whether specific B27-bound peptides are required for AS pathogenesis remains to be determined.

Project description:Aims/hypothesis AGEs are considered environmental contributors of type 1 diabetes, but the exact role AGEs play early in pathogenesis of the disease, remains unidentified. We aimed to reduce AGEs with the pharmacotherapy alagebrium chloride in MIN6N8 cells and early in life in NOD mice to determine its impact on beta cell immunogenicity, function, and disease progression. Methods MIN6N8 cells were cultured with AGEs with or without short-term alagebrium therapy to determine the effect on ER stress and beta cell antigen presentation via a reporter assay for protein responses in the unfolded protein response, the enzymatic activity of endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase-1 (ERAP1) and the immunopeptidome. To determine the effect of short-term alagebrium therapy on beta cells in vivo, female NOD mice were treated with alagebrium and insulin secretion, insulitis, and immune cell repertoire were studied. Adoptive transfer studies and diabetes progression studies were used to consider the impact of alagebrium on immune cell function and disease outcome. Results In MIN6N8 cells, alagebrium therapy inhibited the induction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the activity of ERAP1 by AGE-modified proteins. Alagebrium treated-MIN6N8 cells did not change the MHC Class I presentation of known beta cell antigens but did induce proteomic changes related to ER homeostatic pathways. Prior to overt autoimmune diabetes, female NOD mice treated with alagebrium for 30-40 days had improved insulin secretion, reduced insulitis and amplified proportions of pancreatic CD8+ T cells, mature B cells and F4/80+ macrophages. Splenocytes from alagebrium-treated mice adoptively transferred disease to NODscid recipients and maintained interferon production in vitro. While partial protection of islets by alagebrium was seen following the adoptive transfer of activated NOD G9C8 transgenic TCR CD8+ T cells, alagebrium therapy in NOD mice did not reduce diabetes progression. Conclusions/interpretation Our data suggests that in experimental models of diabetes, short-term alagebrium treatment allows for beta cell improvement, and maintenance of immune cell function, which does not fully mitigate diabetes progression.

Project description:Nuclear speckles (NSs) are nuclear biomolecular condensates that are postulated to arise through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), although the detailed underlying forces driving NS formation remain elusive. SRRM2 and SON are 2 non-redundant scaffold proteins for NSs. How each individual protein governs assembly of NS protein network and the functional relationship between SRRM2 and SON are largely unknown. Here, we uncover immiscible multiphase of SRRM2 and SON within NSs. SRRM2 and SON are functionally independent, specifically regulating alternative splicing of subsets of mRNA targets, respectively. We further uncover that SRRM2 forms multicomponent liquid phase in cells to drive NS subcompartmentalization, which is reliant on homotypic interaction and heterotypic non-selective protein-RNA complex coacervation-driven multicomponent LLPS. SRRM2 RS domains form high-order oligomers, and can be replaced by oligomerizable synthetic modules, the serine residues within the RS domains, however, play an irreplaceable role in fine-tuning the liquidity of NSs.

Project description:TFIID is an essential basal transcription factor, crucial for RNA polymerase II (pol II) promoter recognition and transcription initiation. The TFIID complex consists of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and 13 TBP-associated factors (TAFs) that contain intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) with currently unknown functions. Here, we show that a conserved IDR drives TAF2 condensation in nuclear speckles, independently of other TFIID subunits. Quantitative mass spectrometry analyses reveal that the TAF2 IDR specifically interacts with the nuclear speckle and spliceosome-associated protein SRRM2. Consequently, TAF2 recruits SRRM2 to TFIID to form non-canonical TFIID-SRRM2 complexes. Reduced SRRM2 recruitment elicits alternative splicing events in RNAs coding for proteins involved in transcription and transmembrane transport. Further, genome-wide binding analyses suggest TAF2 shuttling between nuclear speckles and pol II promoters. This study identifies an IDR of the basal transcription machinery as a molecular guide for protein partitioning into nuclear compartments, controlling protein complex composition and pre-mRNA splicing.

Project description:The nuclei of eukaryotes contain various higher-order chromatin architectures and nuclear bodies (NBs), which are critical for proper nuclear functions. By using mouse hepatocytes as the model, we knocked-down SRRM2, a core protein component scaffolding NSs, and performed Hi-C experiments to examine genome-wide chromatin interactions. We found that Srrm2 depletion disrupted the NSs and changes expression of about 1,000 genes. The intra-chromosomal interactions were decreased in type A (active) compartments and increased in type B (repressive) compartments. Furthermore, upon Srrm2 knockdown, the insulation of TADs was decreased specifically in active compartments, and the most significant reduction was found in the A1 sub-compartments. We showed that disruption of NSs by Srrm2 knockdown led to a global decrease of chromatin interactions in active compartments, indicating critical functions of NSs in the organization of the 3D genome.
