A novel class of alternative 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal exons is involved in cell-cycle regulation by topoisomerase inhibitors

ABSTRACT: Alternative 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal exons, which use intronic polyadenylation sites, are generally unconserved and lowly expressed, while the main gene products end in the last exon of genes. In this study, we discover a class of human genes, where the last exon appeared recently during evolution, and the major gene product uses an alternative 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal exon corresponding to the ancestral last exon of the gene. This novel class of alternative 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal exons are down-regulated on a large scale by doxorubicin, a cytostatic drug targeting topoisomerase II, and play a role in cell cycle regulation, including centromere-kinetochore assembly. The RNA-binding protein, HuR/ELAVL1 is a major regulator of this specific set of alternative 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal exons. HuR binding to the alternative 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal exon in the pre-messenger RNA promotes its splicing, and is reduced by topoisomerase inhibitors. These findings provide new insights into the evolution, function and molecular regulation of alternative 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal exons. 6 samples of MCF7 cells exposed to different treatments were analyzed: 3 x control_6 hours; 3 x doxorubicin_6 hours.

Genome-wide analysis of differentially expressed genes and splicing isoforms in clear cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Project description:In this study we performed a genome wide analysis of the entire complement of mRNAs in clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCC) by means of the Affymetrix Exon Array platform. The analyses were performed both at gene and exon level. Under our parameters over 2,000 genes resulted differentially expressed, and about 250 genes resulted alternative spliced showing differential inclusion of specific cassette exons comparing tumor and non tumoral tissues. 20 total samples were used for exon array analysis: 10 ccRCC tumor sample (T) and their matched non-tumor (NT) kidney tissues samples. All exon array data were analyzed using Partek Genomic Suite 6.4 software (Partek). The robust multi-array average (RMA) algorithm was used for the gene- and exon-level intensity analyses. Data were M-oM-,M-^Altered to consider only those probe sets included in the M-bM-^@M-^\Core Meta-ProbesetM-bM-^@M-^]. Lists of genes and exons with significant variation of the expression levels were generated by using a 0.01 FDR criterion as a significant cutoff. Partek list of significant exon-level probesets (FDR corrected p-value < 0.01) and exon level ANOVA test list were used to create - by an ad hoc Python script - a database of significant probesets from Exon Array experiments. To make more stringent the analysis criteria we excluded from the final exon lists all those cases in which Exon Array revealed a significant change at gene-level. This database we created has been used to explore simple exon skipping events using as reference ASPicDB single exon skipping splicing events after mapping Affymetrix probesets on ASPicDB .gtf files. A single exon from the Partek list was defined significantly skipped only if its adjacent exons were not, by using 0.01 and 0.05 p-value criterions as a significant cutoff for the M-bM-^@M-^\skippedM-bM-^@M-^] and adjacent exons, respectively.

Global regulation of alternative splicing by adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) [expression]

Project description:Alternative mRNA splicing is a major mechanism for gene regulation and transcriptome diversity. Despite the extent of the phenomenon, the regulation and specificity of the splicing machinery are only partially understood. Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing of pre-mRNA by ADAR enzymes has been linked to splicing regulation in several cases. Here we used bioinformatics approaches, RNA-seq and exon-specific microarray of ADAR knockdown cells to globally examine how ADAR and its A-to-I RNA editing activity influence alternative mRNA splicing. Although A-to-I RNA editing only rarely targets canonical splicing acceptor, donor, and branch sites, it was found to affect splicing regulatory elements (SREs) within exons. Cassette exons were found to be significantly enriched with A-to-I RNA editing sites compared with constitutive exons. RNA-seq and exon-specific microarray revealed that ADAR knockdown in hepatocarcinoma and myelogenous leukemia cell lines leads to global changes in gene expression, with hundreds of genes changing their splicing patterns in both cell lines. This global change in splicing pattern cannot be explained by putative editing sites alone. Genes showing significant changes in their splicing pattern are frequently involved in RNA processing and splicing activity. Analysis of recently published RNA-seq data from glioblastoma cell lines showed similar results. Our global analysis reveals that ADAR plays a major role in splicing regulation. Although direct editing of the splicing motifs does occur, we suggest it is not likely to be the primary mechanism for ADAR-mediated regulation of alternative splicing. Rather, this regulation is achieved by modulating trans-acting factors involved in the splicing machinery. HepG2 and K562 cell lines were stably transfected with plasmids containing siRNA designed to specifically knock down ADAR expression (ADAR KD). This in order to examine how ADAR affects alternative splicing globally.

Differentially regulated splice variants and systems biology analysis of Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus-infected lymphatic endothelial cells

Project description:Alternative RNA splicing greatly increases proteome diversity, and the possibility of studying genome-wide alternative splicing (AS) events becomes available with the advent of high-throughput genomics tools devoted to this issue. Kaposi’s sarcoma associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiological agent of KS, a tumor of lymphatic endothelial cell (LEC) lineage, but little is known about the AS variations induced by KSHV. We analyzed KSHV-controlled AS using high-density microarrays capable of detecting all exons in the human genome. Splicing variants and altered exon-intron usage in infected LEC were found, and these correlated with protein domain modification. The different 3’ UTR used in new transcripts also help isoforms to escape microRNA-mediated surveillance. Exome-level analysis further revealed information that cannot be disclosed using classical gene-level profiling: a significant exon usage difference existed between LEC and CD34+ precursor cells, and KSHV infection resulted in LEC-to-precursor, dedifferentiation-like exon level reprogramming. Our results demonstrate the application of exon arrays in systems biology research, and suggest the regulatory effects of AS in endothelial cells are far more complex than previously observed. This extra layer of molecular diversity helps to account for various aspects of endothelial biology, KSHV life cycle and disease pathogenesis that until now have been unexplored. 5 samples were analyzed. 3 were KSHV infected lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), and 2 were non-infected control samples.

Effect of myotonic dystrophy on pre-mRNA alternative splicing in skeletal muscle

Project description:Misregulated alternative splicing appears to be a major factor in the pathogenesis of myotonic dystrophy. The present study was done to further explore alternative splicing in this condition by doing exon-level analysis of mRNA from skeletal muscle of 8 subjects with type 1 myotonic dystrophy, 7 subjects with type 2 myotonic dystrophy, 8 disease controls (subjects with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy), and 8 healthy controls . The ratios of signals from the various exons of a gene provided an index of altered exon inclusion/exclusion that was independent of the overall expression of that gene. There were numerous transcripts for which there was evidence of abnormal alternative splicing in subjects with myotonic dystrophy. For many of these transcripts, the abnormal splicing was confirmed by an independent RT-PCR approach. 31 subjects, one sample per subject, four groups: healthy subjects (n = 8), facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (n = 8), type 1 myotonic dystrophy (n = 8), type 2 myotonic dystrophy (n = 7)

RNA helicases DDX5 and DDX17 dynamically orchestrate transcription, microRNA and splicing programs in cell differentiation

Project description:RNA helicases DDX5 and DDX17 are members of a large family of highly conserved proteins involved in gene expression regulation, although their in vivo targets and activities in biological processes like cell differentiation, that requires reprogramming of gene expression programs at multiple levels, are not well characterized. In this report, we uncovered a new mechanism by which DDX5 and DDX17 cooperate with hnRNP H/F splicing factors to define epithelial- and myoblast-specific splicing subprograms. We next observed that downregulation of DDX5 and DDX17 protein expression during epithelial to mesenchymal transdifferentiation and during myogenesis contributes to switching splicing programs during these processes. Remarkably, this downregulation is mediated by the production of microRNAs induced upon differentiation in a DDX5/DDX17-dependent manner. Since DDX5 and DDX17 also function as coregulators of master transcriptional regulators of differentiation, we propose to name these proteins M-bM-^@M-^\master orchestratorsM-bM-^@M-^] of differentiation, that dynamically orchestrate several layers of gene expression. 6 samples of MCF7 cells exposed to different treatments were analyzed: 3 x siCTRLM-BM- ; 3 x si(DDX5-17) AND 6 samples of MCF10 cells exposed to different treatments were analyzed: 3 x siCTRLM-BM- ; 3 x si(DDX5-17)

Analysis of the implication of the DBIRD complex (DBC1 and ZNF326/ZIRD) in gene expression and alternative splicing

Project description:Alternative mRNA splicing is the main reason vast mammalian proteomic complexity can be achieved with a limited number of genes. Splicing is physically and functionally coupled to transcription and the rate of transcript elongation has a profound effect on splicing. As the nascent pre-mRNA emerges from transcribing RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), it is assembled into a messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) particle that represents its functional form, and the composition of which determines the fate of the mature transcript4. However, factors that connect the transcribing polymerase with the mRNP particle and help integrate transcript elongation with mRNA splicing remain obscure. Here, we characterized the interactome of chromatin-associated mRNP particles and thereby identified Deleted in Breast Cancer 1 (DBC1) and a protein we named ZIRD. These proteins are subunits of a novel protein complex, named DBIRD, which binds directly to RNAPII. DBIRD regulates alternative splicing of a large set of exons embedded in A/T-rich DNA, and is present at the affected exons. RNAi-mediated DBIRD depletion results in region-specific decreases in transcript elongation, particularly across areas encompassing affected exons. These data indicate that DBIRD complex acts at the interface between mRNP particles and RNAPII, integrating transcript elongation with regulation of alternative splicing. HEK 293 cells were transfected with CTR-, DBC1- and ZIRD (ZNF326)- specific stealth siRNAs. Total RNAs from three independent experiments were extracted after 48 hours. All conditions were analyzed in triplicate.

Exon-expression profiling of CD4+ T cells derived from HTLV-1-infected individuals with or without malignancy

Project description:T-cell clones were obtained by limiting dilution culture of PBMC of HTLV-1 carriers. Exon expression profiling was performed using Affymetrix exon array (Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Gene version of CEL files 01 to 12 are presented in GSE46518. The main objectives were to assess whether transcriptional and post-transcriptional modifications associate with HTLV-1 infection in vivo. To this end, T-cell clones, infected or not by HTLV-1, were obtained by limiting dilution culture of PBMC derived from HTLV-1 carriers. Tumor cells derived from patients with an acute form ATLL. Exon expression profiles of cloned T-cells and ATLL cells was analyzed using Affymetrix exon array (Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Given that T-cell activation is known to modify alternative exon usage, microarray analysis was carried-out with unstimulated and PHA-stimulated CD4+ T cell clones.

Expression data from pooled RNA of various ocular tissues

Project description:The normal gene expression profiles of the tissues in the eye are a valuable resource for considering genes likely to be involved with disease processes. This is based on the assumption that transcript abundances in healthy tissue are correlated to the continued health of that tissue. Expression values were compared with publically available EST and RNA-sequencing resources. The estimated gene and exon level abundances are available online on the Ocular Tissue Database. Ten different tissues were obtained from 6 different individuals and RNA was pooled. The tissues included: retina, optic nerve head (ONH), optic nerve (ON), ciliary body (CB), trabecular meshwork (TM), sclera, lens, cornea, choroid/RPE and iris.

Genome wide screening for alternative splicing events in pancreatic cancer

Project description:We used Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. Human Exon 1.0 ST Arrays to identify alternative splicing events in 15 samples of PDAC compared to 6 non-tumor samples. Several commercial and open source software approaches for the analysis of differential splicing were tested and a subset of overlapping results was validated using RT-PCR and sequencing. Splicing variants could be validated in several genes closely related to cancer. Pathway analysis of genes predicted to be alternatively spliced revealed an enrichment of genes in categories closely related to cell-cell interactions and kinase activity. 15 samples of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and 6 non tumor pancreatic samples were analyzed for alternative splicing events
