Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) has been associated with somatic mutations in numerous genes; however, the penetrance of these mutations is low. Here we investigate the contribution of alternative splicing as an additional layer of gene dysregulation in AML. By analyzing splicing variations across two patient datasets, we find a consistent set of splicing events that disrupt the coding potential of a subset of AML-associated genes. Importantly, most of these splicing variations are independent of any currently-identified somatic mutations. We have further validated that for EZH2 and ZRSR2 these splicing events reduce the expression of full-length protein. Together these results highlight the contribution of splicing to gene dysregulation and demonstrate that mutation analysis underestimates the burden of functional gene disruption in patient populations.

Project description:Pathological aggregation of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) has emerged as an important driver of multiple neurodegenerative diseases. Since RBP aggregation may result in a loss of normal RBP function, we examined whether dysregulation of RNA metabolism contributes to tauopathies. We find that the PS19 P301S tau mouse model exhibits a dysregulation of RNA splicing that is also apparent upon analysis of human Alzheimer’s disease brain tissues. Dysregulated splicing particularly affected genes involved in synaptic transmission. We also analyzed alternative splicing in PS19 mice crossed to a heterozygous TIA1 background, which has recently been shown to slow disease progression. TIA1 reduction alleviated several of the most significant alternative splicing events for synaptic mRNA transcripts, suggesting that normalization of RBP functions is associated with the neuroprotection. We then used a systems biology approach termed NetDecoder to identify key upstream biological targets, including MYC and EGFR, underlying the transcriptional and splicing changes in the protected compared to tauopathy mice. Importantly, pharmacological inhibition of MYC and EGFR activity in primary neurons overexpressing tau recapitulated the neuroprotective effects of TIA1 reduction. These results demonstrate that dysfunction of RBPs and RNA splicing processes are major elements of the pathophysiology of tauopathies, and identify new potential therapeutic targets for tauopathies.

Project description:Genetic variation at splice site signals significantly influences alternative splicing, leading to transcriptomic and proteomic diversity that enhances phenotypic plasticity and adaptation. However, novel splice variants can negatively impact gene expression and developmental stability. Canalization—the ability of an organism to maintain a consistent phenotype despite genetic or environmental variations—helps balance the effects of genetic variation on development and evolution. Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is a key splicing regulator in plants and animals. Most splicing changes in prmt5 mutants are linked to weak donor splice sites, suggesting that PRMT5 may buffer splicing against genetic variation. We examined PRMT5's effects on splicing and development in two genetically divergent Arabidopsis thaliana accessions with different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) affecting donor splice sites. We found that PRMT5 inactivation significantly increased splicing and phenotypic differences between the accessions. Our findings suggest that PRMT5 contributes to canalization, mitigating the impact of splice site polymorphisms and facilitating the evolution of adaptive splicing patterns.

Project description:Aims: Loss of nuclear TDP-43 characterises sporadic and most familial forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). TDP-43 (encoded by TARDBP) has multiple roles in RNA processing. We aimed to determine whether 1) RNA splicing dysregulation is present in lower motor neurons in ALS and in a motor neuron-like cell model, and 2) TARDBP mutations (mtTARDBP) are associated with aberrant RNA splicing using patient-derived fibroblasts. Methods: Affymetrix exon arrays were used to study mRNA expression and splicing in lower motor neurons obtained by laser capture microdissection of autopsy tissue from individuals with sporadic ALS and TDP-43 proteinopathy. Findings were confirmed by qRT-PCR and in NSC34 motor neuronal cells following shRNA-mediated TDP-43 depletion. Exon arrays and immunohistochemistry were used to study mRNA splicing and TDP-43 expression in fibroblasts from patients with mtTARDBP-associated, sporadic and mutant SOD1-associated ALS. Results: We found altered expression of spliceosome components in motor neurons and widespread aberrations of mRNA splicing that specifically affected genes involved in ribonucleotide binding. This was confirmed in TDP-43 depleted NSC34 cells. Fibroblasts with mtTARDBP showed loss of nuclear TDP-43 protein and demonstrated similar changes in splicing and gene expression, that were not present in fibroblasts from patients with sporadic or SOD1-related ALS. Conclusion: Loss of nuclear TDP-43 is associated with RNA processing abnormalities in ALS motor neurons, patient-derived cells with mtTARDBP, and following artificial TDP-43 depletion, suggesting that splicing dysregulation directly contributes to disease pathogenesis. Key functional pathways affected include those central to RNA metabolism. RNA was extracted from fibroblasts grown from neurologically healthy controls (n=6) and 3 groups of patients with ALS: 1) sporadic cases (n=6); 2) cases due to mutations of SOD1 (n=4); 3) cases due to mutations of TARDBP (n=3). The three ALS groups were compared to the controls.
