Project description:RNA-protein interactions mediate a host of cellular processes, underscoring the need for methods to quantify their occurrence in living cells. RNA interaction frequencies for the average cellular protein are undefined, however, and there is no quantitative threshold to define a protein as an RNA-binding protein (RBP). Ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking immunoprecipitation (CLIP)-sequencing, an effective widely used means of characterizing RNA-protein interactions, would particularly benefit from the capacity to quantitate the number of RNA cross-links per protein per cell. In addition, CLIP-seq methods are difficult, have high experimental failure rates and many ambiguous analytical decisions. To address these issues, the easyCLIP method was developed and used to quantify RNA-protein interactions for a panel of known RBPs as well as a spectrum of random non-RBP proteins. easyCLIP provides the advantages of good efficiency compared to current standards, a simple protocol with a very low failure rate, troubleshooting information that includes direct visualization of prepared libraries without amplification, and a new form of analysis. easyCLIP, which uses sequential on-bead ligation of 5’ and 3’ adaptors tagged with different infrared dyes, classified non-RBPs as those with a per protein RNA cross-link rate of <0.1%, with most RBPs substantially above this threshold, including Rbfox1 (18%), hnRNPC (22%), CELF1 (11%), FBL (2%), and STAU1 (1%). easyCLIP with the PCBP1L100 RBP mutant recurrently seen in cancer quantified increased RNA binding compared to wild-type PCBP1 and suggested a potential mechanism for this RBP mutant in cancer. easyCLIP provides a simple, efficient and robust method to both obtain both traditional CLIP-seq information and to define actual RNA interaction frequencies for a given protein, enabling quantitative cross-RBP comparisons as well as insight into RBP mechanisms.

Project description:Quantitative criteria to identify proteins as RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are presently lacking, as are criteria to define RBP target RNAs. Here, we develop an ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking immunoprecipitation (CLIP)-sequencing method, easyCLIP. easyCLIP provides absolute cross-link rates, as well as increased simplicity, efficiency, and capacity to visualize RNA libraries. Measurement of >200 independent cross-link experiments across >35 proteins identifies an RNA cross-link rate threshold that distinguishes RBPs from non-RBPs and defines target RNAs as those with a complex frequency unlikely for a random protein. We apply easyCLIP to the 33 most recurrent cancer mutations across 28 RBPs, finding increased RNA binding per RBP molecule for PCBP1 L100P/Q cancer mutations. Quantitating RBP-RNA interactions can thus nominate proteins as RBPs and define the impact of specific disease-associated RBP mutations on RNA association.

Project description:Quantitative criteria to identify proteins as RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are presently lacking, as are criteria to define RBP “target” RNAs. To address this, an ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking immunoprecipitation (CLIP)-sequencing method, easyCLIP, was developed. easyCLIP, provides absolute cross-link rates, as well as increased simplicity, efficiency, and capacity to visualize unamplified libraries. 213 cross-link measurements were performed and found that RBPs could be distinguished from non-RBPs by RNA cross-link rates and that target RNAs could be defined as those with a complex frequency unlikely for a random protein. easyCLIP was used to study the 33 most recurrent cancer mutations across 28 RBPs. This demonstrated increased RNA binding per RBP molecule for KHDRBS2 and A1CF cancer mutants, and showed that the PCBP1L100P/Q cancer mutation also dramatically increased RNA binding. Quantitating RBP-RNA interactions can thus categorize proteins as RBPs or not and define the impact of specific disease-associated RBP mutations on RNA binding.

Project description:To investigate the role of PCBP1 in transcription through its ability to bind DNA, we performed a CRISPR knockout of PCBP1 in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells and generated a genome wide map of PCBP1's DNA binding using CUT&RUN. We used RNA-seq of A549 WT cells and two A549 PCBP1 KO cell lines we generated to quantify gene expression changes. We used PCBP1 CUT&RUN to generate a map of PCBP1's DNA binding sites.

Project description:RNA-binding proteins participate in a complex array of post-transcriptional controls essential to cell-type specification and somatic development. Despite their detailed biochemical characterizations, the degree to which each RNA-binding protein impacts on mammalian embryonic development remains incompletely defined and the level of functional redundancy among subsets of these proteins remains open to question. The poly-(C) binding proteins, Pcbp's (aCPs, hnRNPEs), are encoded by a highly conserved and broadly expressed gene family. The two major Pcbp isoforms, Pcbp2 and Pcbp1, are robustly expressed in a wide range of tissues and exert both nuclear and cytoplasmic controls over gene expression. Here we report that Pcbp1-null embryos are rendered nonviable in the peri-implantation stage. In contrast, Pcbp2-null embryos survive until mid-gestation at which time they undergo a loss in viability associated with cardiovascular and hematopoietic abnormalities. Adult mice heterozygous for either Pcbp1 or Pcbp2 null alleles display a mild and non-disruptive growth defect. These data reveal that Pcbp1 and Pcbp2 are individually essential for mouse embryonic development and post-natal growth, reveal a non-redundant in vivo role for Pcpb2 in hematopoiesis, and provide direct evidence that Pcbp1, a retrotransposed derivative of Pcpb2, has evolved essential function(s) in the mammalian genome. mRNA-seq on fetal liver tissue from 12.5 days post coitum. 4 replicates of WT and 3 replicates of PCBP2 Knockout

Project description:To explore potential functional implications of isoform usage shifts, we examined the effect of PCBP1/PCBP2 expression in human AC16 cardiac cells. PCBP1/PCBP2 are KH-domain-containing RNA-binding proteins (RBP) that have been implicated in transcriptional, post-transcriptional and translational regulations. How PCBP1 and PCBP2 are functionally differentiated remains a subject of interest and few reports have outlined their function in cardiac cells. The two paralogs share close homology (~85% identical sequences) and partially overlapping RNA binding targets, suggesting they may form mutually regulatory relationships. Human and mouse PCBP1 sequences share 100.0% identity, whereas human and mouse PCBP2 are identical except in 5 positions; therefore we expressed the human/mouse PCBP1 and human PCBP2 coding sequences in human AC16 cardiac cells. Immunofluorescence imaging confirms broad cytonuclear localization of both paralogs under overexpression. The cells were then subjected to RNA sequencing to determine the effects of PCBP1/2 on gene expression.

Project description:Iron deposition is frequently observed in human autoinflammatory diseases, such as in the brain of patients with multiple sclerosis or in the synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis1-5. Yet, the functional outcome of excessive iron in inflammatory conditions is largely unknown. Granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a proinflammatory cytokine promoting myeloid cell maturation and activation6 and is essential for the pathogenesis of many autoimmune diseases, including autoimmune encephalomyelitis7-10. Post-transcriptional regulation of GM-CSF is mediated primarily through its 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR) via interaction with specific RNA-binding proteins11. Here we show that a RNA-binding protein PCBP1 senses intracellular iron and post-transcriptionally promotes GM-CSF production. In a short hairpin (sh) RNA screening, we found that Poly(rC) binding protein 1 (PCBP1) enhanced GM-CSF 3’UTR activity and its endogenous mRNA stability. PCBP1 deficiency in autoreactive T cells resulted in a compromised production of GM-CSF and other proinflammatory cytokines, abolishing their capacity in inducing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis. Using Crosslinking and Immunoprecipitation (CLIP)12, we demonstrated that PCBP1 promoted mRNA stability by recognizing CU rich elements in the 3’UTRs of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, iron depletion induced rapid caspase-mediated proteolysis of PCBP1 and inhibited the production of GM-CSF and a module of 24 cytokines in primary murine and human T cells. Our study thus demonstrates that PCBP1 is critical for the post-transcriptional regulation of proinflammatory cytokines, and indicates that sensing iron may represent a simple yet effective means to adjust the inflammatory response to tissue homeostatic alterations.
