A conformational rearrangement in the spliceosome sets the stage for Prp22-dependent mRNA release.

ABSTRACT: An essential step in pre-mRNA splicing is the release of the mRNA product from the spliceosome. The DEAH box RNA helicase Prp22 catalyzes mRNA release by remodeling contacts within the spliceosome that involve the U5 snRNP. Spliceosome disassembly requires a segment of more than 13 ribonucleotides downstream of the 3' splice site. I show here by site-specific crosslinking and RNase H protection that Prp22 interacts with the mRNA downstream of the exon-exon junction prior to mRNA release. The findings support a model for Prp22-catalyzed mRNA release from the spliceosome wherein a rearrangement that accompanies the second transesterification step deposits Prp22 on the mRNA downstream of the exon-exon junction. Bound to its target RNA, the 3'-->5' helicase acts to disrupt mRNA/U5 snRNP contacts, thereby liberating the mRNA from the spliceosome.

Immunity protein release from a cell-bound nuclease colicin complex requires global conformational rearrangement.

Project description:Nuclease colicins bind their target receptor BtuB in the outer membrane of sensitive Escherichia coli cells in the form of a high-affinity complex with their cognate immunity proteins. The release of the immunity protein from the colicin complex is a prerequisite for cell entry of the colicin and occurs via a process that is still relatively poorly understood. We have previously shown that an energy input in the form of the cytoplasmic membrane proton motive force is required to promote immunity protein (Im9) release from the colicin E9/Im9 complex and colicin cell entry. We report here that engineering rigidity in the structured part of the colicin translocation domain via the introduction of disulfide bonds prevents immunity protein release from the colicin complex. Reduction of the disulfide bond by the addition of DTT leads to immunity protein release and resumption of activity. Similarly, the introduction of a disulfide bond in the DNase domain previously shown to abolish channel formation in planar bilayers also prevented immunity protein release. Importantly, all disulfide bonds, in the translocation as well as the DNase domain, also abolished the biological activity of the Im9-free colicin E9, the reduction of which led to a resumption of activity. Our results show, for the first time, that conformational flexibility in the structured translocation and DNase domains of a nuclease colicin is essential for immunity protein release, providing further evidence for the hypothesis that global structural rearrangement of the colicin molecule is required for disassembly of this high-affinity toxin-immunity protein complex prior to outer membrane translocation.

Spliceosome-Mediated Pre-mRNA trans-Splicing Can Repair CEP290 mRNA.

Project description:Ocular gene therapy with recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) has shown vector-mediated gene augmentation to be safe and efficacious in the retina in one set of diseases (retinitis pigmentosa and Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) caused by RPE65 deficiency), with excellent safety profiles to date and potential for efficacy in several additional diseases. However, size constraints imposed by the packaging capacity of the AAV genome restrict application to diseases with coding sequence lengths that are less than 5,000 nt. The most prevalent retinal diseases with monogenic inheritance are caused by mutations in genes that exceed this capacity. Here, we designed a spliceosome mediated pre-mRNA trans-splicing strategy to rescue expression of CEP290, which is associated with Leber congenital amaurosis type 10 (LCA10) and several syndromic diseases including Joubert syndrome. We used this reagent to demonstrate editing of CEP290 in cell lines in vitro and in vivo in a mini-gene mouse model. This study is the first to show broad editing of CEP290 transcripts and in vivo proof of concept for editing of CEP290 transcripts in photoreceptors and paves the way for future studies evaluating therapeutic effects.

Regulated IRE1-dependent mRNA decay sets the threshold for dendritic cell survival.

Project description:The IRE1-XBP1 signalling pathway is part of a cellular programme that protects against endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, but also controls development and survival of immune cells. Loss of XBP1 in splenic type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) results in functional alterations without affecting cell survival. However, in mucosal cDC1s, loss of XBP1 impaired survival in a tissue-specific manner-while lung cDC1s die, intestinal cDC1s survive. This was not caused by differential activation of ER stress cell-death regulators CHOP or JNK. Rather, survival of intestinal cDC1s was associated with their ability to shut down protein synthesis through a protective integrated stress response and their marked increase in regulated IRE1-dependent messenger RNA decay. Furthermore, loss of IRE1 endonuclease on top of XBP1 led to cDC1 loss in the intestine. Thus, mucosal DCs differentially mount ATF4- and IRE1-dependent adaptive mechanisms to survive in the face of ER stress.

Structural basis for conformational equilibrium of the catalytic spliceosome.

Project description:The ATPase Prp16 governs equilibrium between the branching (B∗/C) and exon ligation (C∗/P) conformations of the spliceosome. Here, we present the electron cryomicroscopy reconstruction of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae C-complex spliceosome at 2.8 Å resolution and identify a novel C-complex intermediate (Ci) that elucidates the molecular basis for this equilibrium. The exon-ligation factors Prp18 and Slu7 bind to Ci before ATP hydrolysis by Prp16 can destabilize the branching conformation. Biochemical assays suggest that these pre-bound factors prime the C complex for conversion to C∗ by Prp16. A complete model of the Prp19 complex (NTC) reveals how the branching factors Yju2 and Isy1 are recruited by the NTC before branching. Prp16 remodels Yju2 binding after branching, allowing Yju2 to remain tethered to the NTC in the C∗ complex to promote exon ligation. Our results explain how Prp16 action modulates the dynamic binding of step-specific factors to alternatively stabilize the C or C∗ conformation and establish equilibrium of the catalytic spliceosome.

Modulation of SF3B1 in the pre-mRNA spliceosome induces a RIG-I-dependent type I IFN response.

Project description:Nucleic acid-sensing pathways play critical roles in innate immune activation through the production of type I interferon (IFN-I) and proinflammatory cytokines. These factors are required for effective antitumor immune responses. Pharmacological modulators of the pre-mRNA spliceosome splicing factor 3b subunit 1 (SF3B1) are under clinical investigation as cancer cytotoxic agents. However, potential roles of these agents in aberrant RNA generation and subsequent RNA-sensing pathway activation have not been studied. In this study, we observed that SF3B1 pharmacological modulation using pladienolide B (Plad B) induces production of aberrant RNA species and robust IFN-I responses via engagement of the dsRNA sensor retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) and downstream interferon regulatory factor 3. We found that Plad B synergized with canonical RIG-I agonism to induce the IFN-I response. In addition, Plad B induced NF-κB responses and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Finally, we showed that cancer cells bearing the hotspot SF3B1K700E mutation, which leads to global aberrant splicing, had enhanced IFN-I response to canonical RIG-I agonism. Together, these results demonstrate that pharmacological modulation of SF3B1 in cancer cells can induce an enhanced IFN-I response dependent on RIG-I expression. The study suggests that spliceosome modulation may not only induce direct cancer cell cytotoxicity but also initiate an innate immune response via activation of RNA-sensing pathways.

Structure of the human activated spliceosome in three conformational states.

Project description:During each cycle of pre-mRNA splicing, the pre-catalytic spliceosome (B complex) is converted into the activated spliceosome (Bact complex), which has a well-formed active site but cannot proceed to the branching reaction. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of the human Bact complex in three distinct conformational states. The EM map allows atomic modeling of nearly all protein components of the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP), including three of the SF3a complex and seven of the SF3b complex. The structure of the human Bact complex contains 52 proteins, U2, U5, and U6 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), and a pre-mRNA. Three distinct conformations have been captured, representing the early, mature, and late states of the human Bact complex. These complexes differ in the orientation of the Switch loop of Prp8, the splicing factors RNF113A and NY-CO-10, and most components of the NineTeen complex (NTC) and the NTC-related complex. Analysis of these three complexes and comparison with the B and C complexes reveal an ordered flux of components in the B-to-Bact and the Bact-to-B* transitions, which ultimately prime the active site for the branching reaction.

ROS sets the stage for macrophage differentiation.

Project description:While M1 macrophages are highly pro-inflammatory and microbicidal, M2 macrophages and the related tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) regulate tissue remodeling and angiogenesis and can display immunomodulatory activity. In July issue of Cell Research, Zhang et al. show that ROS production, critical for the activation and functions of M1 macrophages, is necessary for the differentiation of M2 macrophages and TAMs, and that antioxidant therapy blocks TAM differentiation and tumorigenesis in mouse models of cancer.

B-factor Analysis and Conformational Rearrangement of Aldose Reductase.

Project description:The NADPH-dependent reduction of glucose reaction that is catalyzed by Aldose Reductase (AR) follows a sequential ordered kinetic mechanism in which the co-factor NADPH binds to the enzyme prior to the aldehyde substrate. The kinetic/structural experiments have found a conformational change involving a hinge-like movement of a surface loop (residues 213-224) which is anticipated to take place upon the binding of the diphosphate moiety of NADPH. The reorientation of this loop, expected to permit the release of NADP+, represents the rate-limiting step of the catalytic mechanism. This study reveals: 1) The Translation/Libration/Screw (TLS) analysis of absolute B-factors of apo AR crystal structures indicates that the 212-224 loop might move as a rigid group. 2) Residues that make the flexible loop slide in the AR binary and ternary complexes. 3) The normalized B-factors separate this segment into three different clusters with fewer residues.
