Project description:SAF-A is conserved throughout vertebrates and has emerged as an important factor regulating a multitude of nuclear functions, including lncRNA localization, gene expression, and splicing. SAF-A has several functional domains, including an N-terminal SAP domain that binds directly to DNA. Phosphorylation of SAP domain serines S14 and S26 are important for SAF-A localization and function during mitosis, however whether these serines are involved in interphase functions of SAF-A is not known. In this study we tested for the role of the SAP domain, and SAP domain serines S14 and S26 in X chromosome inactivation, protein dynamics, gene expression, splicing, and cell proliferation. Here we show that the SAP domain serines S14 and S26 are required to maintain XIST RNA localization and polycomb-dependent histone modifications on the inactive X chromosome in female cells. In addition, we present evidence that an Xi localization signal resides in the SAP domain. We found that that the SAP domain is not required to maintain gene expression and plays only a minor role in mRNA splicing. In contrast, the SAF-A SAP domain, in particular serines S14 and S26, are required for normal protein dynamics, and to maintain normal cell proliferation. We propose a model whereby dynamic phosphorylation of SAF-A serines S14 and S26 mediates rapid turnover of SAF-A interactions with DNA during interphase.

Project description:The nuclear matrix associated hnRNP U/SAF-A protein has been implicated in diverse pathways from transcriptional regulation to telomere length control to X inactivation, but the precise mechanism underlying each of these processes has remained elusive. Here, we report hnRNP U as a regulator of SMN2 splicing from a custom RNAi screen. Genome-wide analysis by CLIP-seq reveals that hnRNP U binds virtually to all classes of regulatory non-coding RNAs, including all snRNAs required for splicing of both major and minor classes of introns, leading to the discovery that hnRNP U regulates U2 snRNP maturation and Cajal body morphology in the nucleus. Global analysis of hnRNP U-dependent splicing by RNA-seq coupled with bioinformatic analysis of associated splicing signals suggests a general rule for splice site selection through modulating the core splicing machinery. These findings exemplify hnRNP U/SAF-A as a potent regulator of nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles in diverse gene expression pathways. Examination of hnRNP U regulated splicing in Hela cells with CLIP-seq (two biological replicates) and paired-end RNA-seq (control and hnRNP U knockdown)

Project description:The non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathway is critical for DNA double-strand break repair and is essential for lymphocyte development and maturation. The Ku70/Ku80 heterodimer (KU) binds to DNA ends, initiating NHEJ and recruiting additional factors, including DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) that caps the ends and pushes KU inward. The C-terminus of Ku70 in higher eukaryotes includes a flexible linker and a SAP domain, whose physiological role remains poorly understood. To investigate this, we generated a mouse model with knock-in deletion of the SAP domain (Ku70DSAP/DSAP). Ku70DSAP supports KU stability and its recruitment to DNA damage sites in vivo. In contrast to the growth retardation and immunodeficiency seen in Ku70-/- mice, Ku70DSAP/DSAP mice show no defects in lymphocyte development and maturation. Structural modeling of KU on long dsDNA, but not dsRNA suggests that the SAP domain can bind to an adjacent major groove, where it can limit KU’s rotation and lateral movement along the dsDNA. Consistent with this model, in the absence of DNA-PKcs that caps the ends, Ku70DSAP fails to support stable DNA damage-induced KU foci. In DNA-PKcs-/- mice, Ku70DSAP abrogates the leaky T cell development and reduces both the qualitative and quantitative aspects of residual V(D)J recombination. Moreover, purified Ku70DSAP also has reduced affinity for DNA ends and dissociates more readily. These findings revealed a physiological role of the SAP domain in NHEJ by restricting KU rotation and lateral movement on DNA that is largely masked by DNA-PKcs.
