Mechanisms for U2AF to define 3M-bM-^@M-2 splice sites and regulate alternative splicing in the human genome

ABSTRACT: The U2AF heterodimer has been well studied for its role in defining functional 3M-bM-^@M-^Y splice sites in pre-mRNA splicing, but many fundamental questions still remain unaddressed regarding the function of U2AF in mammalian genomes. Through genome-wide analysis of U2AF-RNA interactions, we report that U2AF has the capacity to directly define ~88% of functional 3M-bM-^@M-^Y splice sites in the human genome, but numerous U2AF binding events also occur in intronic locations. Mechanistic dissection reveals that upstream intronic binding events interfere with the immediate downstream 3M-bM-^@M-^Y splice site associated with either the alternative exon to cause exon skipping or with the competing constitutive exon to induce exon inclusion. We further demonstrate partial functional impairment with mutations in U2AF35, but not U2AF65, in regulated splicing. These findings reveal the genomic function and regulatory mechanism of U2AF in both normal and disease states. Examination of U2AF heterodimer regulated splicing in Hela cells with CLIP-seq (U2AF65), paired-end RNA-seq (si-NC and si-U2AF65) and RASL-seq (respective three biological replicates of WT, si-NC, si-U2AF65, si-U2AF35, si-NC + pcDNA3.0, si-U2AF65 + pcDNA3.0, and si-U2AF65 + Flag-U2AF35)

Mechanisms for U2AF to define 3′ splice sites and regulate alternative splicing in the human genome

Project description:The U2AF heterodimer has been well studied for its role in defining functional 3’ splice sites in pre-mRNA splicing, but many fundamental questions still remain unaddressed regarding the function of U2AF in mammalian genomes.

RNA-Seq of 293T cells depleted of U2AF-related proteins

Project description:Characterization of RNA processing events dependent on U2AF-related proteins PUF60 and RBM39. PUF60 (poly-U-binding factor 60 kDa, also known as FIR, Hfp or Ro-bp1) is a splicing factor homologous to the 65 kD subunit of the auxiliary factor of U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (U2AF65). PUF60 has two central RNA recognition motifs and a C-terminal U2AF homology motif (UHM), but lacks the N terminal arginine/serine-rich (RS) and UHM ligand motif (ULM) domains present in U2AF65. PUF60 activity, in conjunction with U2AF, facilitates the association of U2 snRNP with the pre-mRNA. PUF60 and U2AF65 can bind SF3b155 ULMs simultaneously and noncompetitively. RBM39 (also known as CAPERα, HCC1, FSAP59 or RNPC2) is an RNA processing factor and a hormone-dependent transcriptional coactivator. RBM39 domain structure is similar to PUF60, except for the extra N-terminal RS domain with unknown function. To understand function of the two proteins on a genome-wide scale, each protein was individually depleted from human embryonic kidney cell line 293 using RNAi to systematically characterize the PUF60- and RBM39-dependent exon usage.

Exon arrays from HeLa cells transfected with GFP-ZRANB2 vector

Project description:Human ZRANB2 mRNA is alternatively spliced to give two variants with different 3M-bM-^@M-^Y ends. Both isoforms are present in the nucleus of human cells. ZRANB2 binds to mRNA, as well as the essential splicing factors U170K and U2AF35, and the novel splicing component SFRS17A (formerly known as XE7). It has been shown to alter splicing patterns of Tra2M-NM-21 minigene primary transcripts in a dose-dependent manner. It is still unclear what role ZRANB2 plays in the regulation of alternative splicing. To determine the endogenous transcripts that are targeted by ZRANB2 at the genome wide level, we decided to perform exon microarray studies and analyzed the suitability of this method to examine splicing differences in human cells overexpressing a splicing factor. GFP-ZRANB2 construct containing isoform 2 (short form, SF) of ZRANB2 was used. This construct includes exon 1 through to alternative exon 10. Isoform 2 was chosen since it has been shown previously to affect alternative splicing of a Tra2M-NM-21 minigene. HeLa cells were transfected with GFP-ZRANB2, control vector GFP or were left untransfected. RNA was extracted using a Qiagen RNA extraction kit. Experiments were run in 5 replicates.

Functional splicing network reveals extensive regulatory plasticity of the core Spliceosomal machinery

Project description:Pre-mRNA splicing relies on the still poorly understood dynamic interplay between more than 150 protein components of the Spliceosome, and the steps at which splicing can be regulated remain largely unknown. Here we systematically analyze the effect of knocking down the components of the splicing machinery on alternative splicing events relevant for cell proliferation and apoptosis and use this information to reconstruct a network of functional interactions. The network accurately captures well-established physical and functional associations and identifies new, revealing remarkable regulatory potential of core spliceosomal components, related to the order and duration of their recruitment during Spliceosome assembly. In contrast with standard models of regulation at early events of splice site recognition, factors involved in catalytic activation of the Spliceosome display regulatory properties. The network also sheds light on the antagonism between hnRNP C and U2AF and on targets of anti-tumor drugs, and can be widely used to identify mechanisms of splicing regulation. RNA from 3 biological replicates of 72 hours knockdowns of human IK or SMU1 and a control set were used. Changes between the control and knockdowns were measured based on using a splice-junction array (Affymetrix HJAY).

A global regulatory mechanism for activating an exon network required for neurogenesis

Project description:The vertebrate and neural-specific SR-related protein nSR100/SRRM4 regulates an extensive program of alternative splicing with critical roles in nervous system development. However, the mechanism by which nSR100 controls its target exons is poorly understood. We demonstrate that nSR100-dependent neural exons are associated with a unique configuration of intronic cis-elements that promote rapid switch-like regulation during neurogenesis. A key feature of this configuration is the insertion of specialized intronic enhancers between polypyrimidine tracts and acceptor sites that bind nSR100 to potently activate exon inclusion in neural cells, while weakening 3' splice site recognition and contributing to exon skipping in non-neural cells. nSR100 further operates by forming multiple interactions with early spliceosome components bound proximal to 3' splice sites. These multifaceted interactions achieve dominance over neural exon silencing mediated by the splicing regulator PTBP1. The results thus illuminate a widespread mechanism by which a critical neural exon network is activated during neurogenesis. RNA-Seq was used to obtain mRNA profiles of various N2A and 293T cell lines from human and mouse, respectively, to investigate the roles of nSR100, Ptbp1 and U2af65 in alternative splicing regulation. PAR-iCLIP and iCLIP experiments followed by high throughput sequencing were conducted to obtain RNA binding profiles of nSR100, PTBP1 and U2af65.

PRPF8 iCLIP on HeLa cells in response to eIF4A3 Knockdown

Project description:This experiment uses iCLIP to identify the binding pattern of the spliceosomal protein PRPF8 on RNA. The data shows that PRPF8 binds strongly and specifically in the region 12 to 14nt upstream of 5' splice sites (5ss). Due to PRPF8's role in the formation of the catalytically active spliceosome, this data can be used as a readout of 5ss selection. Here, we performed iCLIP on HeLa cells treated with control or EIF4A3 siRNA, with 4 replicate samples per condition and eIF4A3 protein levels reduced ~50% in knockdown. We investigated the role of the exon junction complex (EJC) in suppressing 5ss that are reconstituted at the junction of two canonical exons (RS-5ss) - selection of these splice sites would result in recursive splicing of canonical exons. We plotted the crosslink sites of reads that span an exon-exon junction, seperating reads that span RS-5ss from those that do not. We found that reads that span an RS-5ss are enriched at the 12-14nt window associated with 5ss selection, while reads that span other exon-exon junctions are not enriched. This effect is magnified greatly by knockdown of eIF4A3. The results indicate that RS-5ss can be used by the spliceosome, but that this process is usually repressed by the EJC. This data is evidence of recursive splicing of canonical exons and the role of the EJC in repressing recursive splicing.
