Long noncoding RNA as modular scaffold of histone modification complexes.

ABSTRACT: Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) regulate chromatin states and epigenetic inheritance. Here, we show that the lincRNA HOTAIR serves as a scaffold for at least two distinct histone modification complexes. A 5' domain of HOTAIR binds polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), whereas a 3' domain of HOTAIR binds the LSD1/CoREST/REST complex. The ability to tether two distinct complexes enables RNA-mediated assembly of PRC2 and LSD1 and coordinates targeting of PRC2 and LSD1 to chromatin for coupled histone H3 lysine 27 methylation and lysine 4 demethylation. Our results suggest that lincRNAs may serve as scaffolds by providing binding surfaces to assemble select histone modification enzymes, thereby specifying the pattern of histone modifications on target genes.

Modular function of long noncoding RNA, COLDAIR, in the vernalization response.

Project description:The long noncoding RNA COLDAIR is necessary for the repression of a floral repressor FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) during vernalization in Arabidopsis thaliana. The repression of FLC is mediated by increased enrichment of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) and subsequent trimethylation of Histone H3 Lysine 27 (H3K27me3) at FLC chromatin. In this study we found that the association of COLDAIR with chromatin occurs only at the FLC locus and that the central region of the COLDAIR transcript is critical for this interaction. A modular motif in COLDAIR is responsible for the association with PRC2 in vitro, and the mutations within the motif that reduced the association of COLDAIR with PRC2 resulted in vernalization insensitivity. The vernalization insensitivity caused by mutant COLDAIR was rescued by the ectopic expression of the wild-type COLDAIR. Our study reveals the molecular framework in which COLDAIR lncRNA mediates the PRC2-mediated repression of FLC during vernalization.

Long noncoding RNA PANDA and scaffold-attachment-factor SAFA control senescence entry and exit.

Project description:Cellular senescence is a stable cell cycle arrest that limits the proliferation of pre-cancerous cells. Here we demonstrate that scaffold-attachment-factor A (SAFA) and the long noncoding RNA PANDA differentially interact with polycomb repressive complexes (PRC1 and PRC2) and the transcription factor NF-YA to either promote or suppress senescence. In proliferating cells, SAFA and PANDA recruit PRC complexes to repress the transcription of senescence-promoting genes. Conversely, the loss of SAFA-PANDA-PRC interactions allows expression of the senescence programme. Accordingly, we find that depleting either SAFA or PANDA in proliferating cells induces senescence. However, in senescent cells where PANDA sequesters transcription factor NF-YA and limits the expression of NF-YA-E2F-coregulated proliferation-promoting genes, PANDA depletion leads to an exit from senescence. Together, our results demonstrate that PANDA confines cells to their existing proliferative state and that modulating its level of expression can cause entry or exit from senescence.

Sensitive and quantitative probing of pseudouridine modification in mRNA and long noncoding RNA.

Project description:Pseudouridine (Ψ) is the most abundant RNA modification in cellular RNA present in tRNA/rRNA/snRNA and also in mRNA and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA). Elucidation of Ψ function in mRNA/lncRNA requires mapping and quantitative assessment of its modification fraction at single-base resolution. The most widely used Ψ mapping method for mRNA/lncRNA relies on its reaction with N-Cyclohexyl-N'-(2-morpholinoethyl)carbodiimide (CMC), forming an adduct with the Ψ base in RNA that is detectable by reverse transcription (RT) stops. However, this method has not produced consistent Ψ maps in mRNAs; furthermore, available protocols do not lend confidence to the estimation of Ψ fraction at specific sites, which is a crucial parameter for investigating the biological relevance of mRNA modifications. Here we develop a quantitative RT-PCR based method that can detect and quantify the modification fraction of target Ψ sites in mRNA/lncRNA, termed CMC-RT and ligation assisted PCR analysis of Ψ modification (CLAP). The method still relies on RT stop at a CMC-Ψ site, but uses site-specific ligation and PCR to generate two distinct PCR products in the same sample, corresponding to the modified and unmodified site, that are visualized by gel electrophoresis. CLAP not only requires a small amount of cellular RNA to validate Ψ sites but also determines the Ψ fraction semiquantitatively at target sites in mRNA/lncRNA. We determined the Ψ status of four mRNA sites and one lncRNA site whose modification fractions range from 30% to 84% in three human cell lines. Our method enables precise mapping and assessment of Ψ modification levels in low abundance cellular RNAs.

Probing N6-methyladenosine RNA modification status at single nucleotide resolution in mRNA and long noncoding RNA.

Project description:N(6)-methyladenosine (m(6)A) is the most abundant modification in mammalian mRNA and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA). Recent discoveries of two m(6)A demethylases and cell-type and cell-state-dependent m(6)A patterns indicate that m(6)A modifications are highly dynamic and likely play important biological roles for RNA akin to DNA methylation or histone modification. Proposed functions for m(6)A modification include mRNA splicing, export, stability, and immune tolerance; but m(6)A studies have been hindered by the lack of methods for its identification at single nucleotide resolution. Here, we develop a method that accurately determines m(6)A status at any site in mRNA/lncRNA, termed site-specific cleavage and radioactive-labeling followed by ligation-assisted extraction and thin-layer chromatography (SCARLET). The method determines the precise location of the m(6)A residue and its modification fraction, which are crucial parameters in probing the cellular dynamics of m(6)A modification. We applied the method to determine the m(6)A status at several sites in two human lncRNAs and three human mRNAs and found that m(6)A fraction varies between 6% and 80% among these sites. We also found that many m(6)A candidate sites in these RNAs are however not modified. The precise determination of m(6)A status in a long noncoding RNA also enables the identification of an m(6)A-containing RNA structural motif.

Exogenously overexpressed intronic long noncoding RNAs activate host gene expression by affecting histone modification in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Involvement of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the regulation of gene expression in cis has been well studied in eukaryotes but relatively little is known whether and how lncRNAs affect gene expression in tans. In Arabidopsis thaliana, COLDAIR, a previously reported lncRNA, is produced from the first intron of FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC), which encodes a repressor of flowering time. Our results indicated that the exogenously overexpressed COLDAIR enhances the expression of FLC in trans, resulting in a late-flowering phenotype. In 35S-COLDAIR lines, the enhanced expression of FLC is correlated with the down-regulation of the repressive histone mark H3K27me3 and with the up-regulation of the active histone mark H3K4me3 at the FLC chromatin. Furthermore, we demonstrated that overexpression of intronic lncRNAs from several other H3K27me3-enriched MADS-box genes also activates the expression of their host genes. This study suggests that the involvement of overexpressed intronic lncRNAs in gene activation may be conserved in H3K27me3-enriched genes in eukaryotes.
