Myoparr-Associated and -Independent Multiple Roles of Heterogeneous Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein K during Skeletal Muscle Cell Differentiation.

ABSTRACT: RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) regulate cell physiology via the formation of ribonucleic-protein complexes with coding and non-coding RNAs. RBPs have multiple functions in the same cells; however, the precise mechanism through which their pleiotropic functions are determined remains unknown. In this study, we revealed the multiple inhibitory functions of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K (hnRNPK) for myogenic differentiation. We first identified hnRNPK as a lncRNA Myoparr binding protein. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments showed that hnRNPK repressed the expression of myogenin at the transcriptional level. The hnRNPK-binding region of Myoparr was required to repress myogenin expression. Moreover, hnRNPK repressed the expression of a set of genes coding for aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases in a Myoparr-independent manner. Mechanistically, hnRNPK regulated the eIF2α/Atf4 pathway, one branch of the intrinsic pathways of the endoplasmic reticulum sensors, in differentiating myoblasts. Thus, our findings demonstrate that hnRNPK plays lncRNA-associated and -independent multiple roles during myogenic differentiation, indicating that the analysis of lncRNA-binding proteins will be useful for elucidating both the physiological functions of lncRNAs and the multiple functions of RBPs.

Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein M associates with mTORC2 and regulates muscle differentiation.

Project description:Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) plays a range of crucial roles in cell survival, growth, proliferation, metabolism, and morphology. However, mTOR forms two distinct complexes, mTOR complex 1 and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC1 and mTORC2), via association with a series of different components; this allows the complexes to execute their wide range of functions. This study explores further the composition of the mTORC2 complex. Utilizing Rictor knock-out cells, immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry, a novel Rictor associated protein, heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein M (hnRNP M), was identified. The association between hnRNP M and Rictor was verified using recombinant and endogenous protein and the binding site was found to be within aa 1~532 of hnRNP M. The presence of hnRNP M significantly affects phosphorylation of SGK1 S422, but not of Akt S473, PKC? S657 and PKC? T560. Furthermore, hnRNP M also plays a critical role in muscle differentiation because knock-down of either hnRNP M or Rictor in C2C12 myoblasts reduced differentiation. This decrease is able to be rescued by overexpression SGK S422D in hnRNP M knockdown C2C12 myoblasts. Taken together, we have identified a novel Rictor/mTOR binding molecule, hnRNP M, that allows mTORC2 signaling to phosphorylate SGK1 thus regulating muscle differentiation.

LncRNAH19 improves insulin resistance in skeletal muscle by regulating heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Skeletal muscle is essential for glucose and lipid metabolism. Growing evidence reveals the importance of long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) in metabolism. This study aimed to investigate the function of LncRNA H19 (H19) in lipid metabolism of skeletal muscle and its potential mechanisms. METHODS:Glucose tolerance, serum insulin and lipid content in serum and skeletal muscle were determined in control and H19-overexpressed db/db mice. Lipid metabolism was evaluated in H19-overexpressed or H19-silencing muscle cells by detecting lipid contents and mitochondria related functions. The underlying mechanisms were explored by RNA pull-down, mass spectrometry and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP). RESULTS:H19 was downregulated in skeletal muscle of db/db mice. H19 overexpression in db/db mice inhibited lipid ectopic deposition in skeletal muscle, meanwhile improved glucose intolerance and insulin resistance as compared with control db/db mice treated with ad-GFP. Furthermore, overexpression of H19 reversed FFA-induced lipid accumulation and increased cellular respiration in muscle cells, while H19 knockdown exhibited opposite effects in muscle cells. Mechanistically, H19 interacted with heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNPA1) which was validated by RNA pulldown and RIP analysis, which increased translation of fatty acid oxidation closely related genes PGC1a and CPT1b. CONCLUSION:Our data suggest that overexpression of H19 ameliorates insulin resistance by reducing ectopic lipid accumulation in skeletal muscle. The possible underlying mechanisms are that overexpression of lncRNAH19 promotes fatty acids oxidation via targeting of hnRNPA1. Video abstract.

Muscle developmental defects in heterogeneous nuclear Ribonucleoprotein A1 knockout mice.

Project description:Heterogeneous ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNP A1) is crucial for regulating alternative splicing. Its integrated function within an organism has not, however, been identified. We generated hnRNP A1 knockout mice to study the role of hnRNP A1 in vivo The knockout mice, hnRNP A1-/-, showed embryonic lethality because of muscle developmental defects. The blood pressure and heart rate of the heterozygous mice were higher than those of the wild-type mice, indicating heart function defects. We performed mouse exon arrays to study the muscle development mechanism. The processes regulated by hnRNP A1 included cell adhesion and muscle contraction. The expression levels of muscle development-related genes in hnRNP A1+/- mice were significantly different from those in wild-type mice, as detected using qRT-PCR. We further confirmed the alternative splicing patterns of muscle development-related genes including mef2c, lrrfip1, usp28 and abcc9 Alternative mRNA isoforms of these genes were increased in hnRNP A1+/- mice compared with wild-type mice. Furthermore, we revealed that the functionally similar hnRNP A2/B1 did not compensate for the expression of hnRNP A1 in organisms. In summary, our study demonstrated that hnRNP A1 plays a critical and irreplaceable role in embryonic muscle development by regulating the expression and alternative splicing of muscle-related genes.

Microtubule motors involved in nuclear movement during skeletal muscle differentiation.

Project description:Nuclear positioning is a determining event in several cellular processes, such as fertilization, cell migration, and cell differentiation. The structure and function of muscle cells, which contain hundreds of nuclei, have been shown to rely in part on proper nuclear positioning. Remarkably, in the course of muscle differentiation, nuclear movements along the myotube axis might represent the event required for the even positioning of nuclei in the mature myofiber. Here we analyze nuclear behavior, time in motion, speed, and alignment during myotube differentiation and temporal interference of cytoskeletal microtubule-related motors. Using specific inhibitors, we find that nuclear movement and alignment are microtubule dependent, with 19 microtubule motor proteins implicated in at least one nuclear behavior. We further focus on Kif1c, Kif5b, kif9, kif21b, and Kif1a, which affect nuclear alignment. These results emphasize the different roles of molecular motors in particular mechanisms.

Functional impact of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 in smooth muscle differentiation from stem cells and embryonic arteriogenesis.

Project description:Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) play various roles in transcriptional and post-transcriptional modulation of gene expression. However, it remains unclear if hnRNPs are associated with smooth muscle cell (SMC) differentiation from stem cells and embryonic arteriogenesis. In this study, mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells were cultivated on collagen IV-coated plates and smooth muscle differentiation medium. We found that hnRNPA2/B1 gene and protein expression was significantly up-regulated following 3-7 days of cell differentiation. hnRNPA2/B1 knockdown resulted in down-regulation of specific smooth muscle markers and transcription factors, whereas enforced expression of hnRNPA2/B1 enhanced the expression of these genes. Moreover, we demonstrated by using luciferase and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays that hnRNPA2/B1 could transcriptionally regulate SMC gene expression through direct binding to promoters of Smαa and Sm22α genes. We further demonstrated that chromobox protein homolog gene 3, a previously identified SMC differentiation regulatory nuclear protein, is required for hnRNPA2/B1-mediated SMC differentiation gene expression. Importantly, specifically designed Hnrnpa2/b1 morpholinos for in vivo knockdown could inhibit the migration and differentiation of neural crest cells into SMCs in chick embryos. This resulted in the maldevelopment of branchial arch arteries and increased embryo lethality at a later developmental stage. Our findings demonstrated that hnRNPA2/B1 plays a functional role in SMC differentiation from stem cells in vitro and embryonic branchial arch artery development. This indicates that hnRNPA2/B1 is a potential modulating target for deriving SMCs from stem cells and cardiovascular regenerative medicine.

Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K promotes cap-independent translation initiation of retroviral mRNAs.

Project description:Translation initiation of the human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) genomic mRNA (vRNA) is cap-dependent or mediated by an internal ribosome entry site (IRES). The HIV-1 IRES requires IRES-transacting factors (ITAFs) for function. In this study, we evaluated the role of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K (hnRNPK) as a potential ITAF for the HIV-1 IRES. In HIV-1-expressing cells, the depletion of hnRNPK reduced HIV-1 vRNA translation. Furthermore, both the depletion and overexpression of hnRNPK modulated HIV-1 IRES activity. Phosphorylations and protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1)-induced asymmetrical dimethylation (aDMA) of hnRNPK strongly impacted the protein's ability to promote the activity of the HIV-1 IRES. We also show that hnRNPK acts as an ITAF for the human T cell lymphotropic virus-type 1 (HTLV-1) IRES, present in the 5'UTR of the viral sense mRNA, but not for the IRES present in the antisense spliced transcript encoding the HTLV-1 basic leucine zipper protein (sHBZ). This study provides evidence for a novel role of the host hnRNPK as an ITAF that stimulates IRES-mediated translation initiation for the retroviruses HIV-1 and HTLV-1.

Muscle Developmental Defects in Heterogeneous Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein A1 Knockout Mice

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of total RNA samples from heart tissue of knockout mice Alternative splicing is the main mechanism to increase protein diversity from an mRNA. Heterogeneous ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) family members are vital regulators of alternative splicing. The hnRNP A1 is the most well-known protein in this family, but its role in embryonic development is not well understood. We generated hnRNP A1 knockout mice to study the function of hnRNP A1 in vivo. The hnRNP A1-depleted mice showed embryonic lethality because of muscle developmental defects. In a previous study, cellular hnRNP A2/B1 was reported to be capable of compensating for the expression of hnRNP A1. However, this phenomenon did not occur in the hnRNP A1 heterozygous mice in vivo. We demonstrated that hnRNP A1 regulated muscle-related genes expression and alternative splicing. In summary, our data demonstrated that hnRNP A1 plays a critical role in embryonic muscle development. Understanding the effects of hnRNP A1 in vivo may help to define the function of hnRNP A1 in alternative splicing.

Canonical Wnt signalling regulates nuclear export of Setdb1 during skeletal muscle terminal differentiation.

Project description:The histone 3 lysine 9 methyltransferase Setdb1 is essential for both stem cell pluripotency and terminal differentiation of different cell types. To shed light on the roles of Setdb1 in these mutually exclusive processes, we used mouse skeletal myoblasts as a model of terminal differentiation. Ex vivo studies on isolated single myofibres showed that Setdb1 is required for adult muscle stem cells expansion following activation. In vitro studies in skeletal myoblasts confirmed that Setdb1 suppresses terminal differentiation. Genomic binding analyses showed a release of Setdb1 from selected target genes upon myoblast terminal differentiation, concomitant to a nuclear export of Setdb1 to the cytoplasm. Both genomic release and cytoplasmic Setdb1 relocalisation during differentiation were dependent on canonical Wnt signalling. Transcriptomic assays in myoblasts unravelled a significant overlap between Setdb1 and Wnt3a regulated genetic programmes. Together, our findings revealed Wnt-dependent subcellular relocalisation of Setdb1 as a novel mechanism regulating Setdb1 functions and myogenesis.

Heterogeneous Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein M Facilitates Enterovirus Infection.

Project description:Picornavirus infection involves a dynamic interplay of host and viral protein interactions that modulates cellular processes to facilitate virus infection and evade host antiviral defenses. Here, using a proteomics-based approach known as TAILS to identify protease-generated neo-N-terminal peptides, we identify a novel target of the poliovirus 3C proteinase, the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteinM(hnRNP M), a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling RNA-binding protein that is primarily known for its role in pre-mRNA splicing. hnRNPMis cleaved in vitro by poliovirus and coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) 3C proteinases and is targeted in poliovirus- and CVB3-infected HeLa cells and in the hearts of CVB3-infected mice. hnRNPMrelocalizes from the nucleus to the cytoplasm during poliovirus infection. Finally, depletion of hnRNPMusing small interfering RNA knockdown approaches decreases poliovirus and CVB3 infections in HeLa cells and does not affect poliovirus internal ribosome entry site translation and viral RNA stability. We propose that cleavage of and subverting the function of hnRNPMis a general strategy utilized by picornaviruses to facilitate viral infection.Enteroviruses, a member of the picornavirus family, are RNA viruses that cause a range of diseases, including respiratory ailments, dilated cardiomyopathy, and paralysis. Although enteroviruses have been studied for several decades, the molecular basis of infection and the pathogenic mechanisms leading to disease are still poorly understood. Here, we identify hnRNPMas a novel target of a viral proteinase. We demonstrate that the virus subverts the function of hnRNPMand redirects it to a step in the viral life cycle. We propose that cleavage of hnRNPMis a general strategy that picornaviruses use to facilitate infection.

TP63 Transcripts Play Opposite Roles in Chicken Skeletal Muscle Differentiation.

Project description:Tumor protein 63 (TP63) comprises multiple isoforms and plays an important role during embryonic development. It has been shown that TP63 knockdown inhibits myogenic differentiation, but which isoform is involved in the underlying myogenic regulation remains uncertain. Here, we found that two transcripts of TP63, namely, TAp63? and ?Np63?, are expressed in chicken skeletal muscle. These two transcripts have distinct expression patterns and opposite functions in skeletal muscle development. TAp63 has higher expression in skeletal muscle than in other tissues, and its expression is gradually upregulated during chicken primary myoblast differentiation. ?Np63 can be expressed in multiple tissues and exhibits stable expression during myoblast differentiation. TAp63? overexpression inhibits myoblast proliferation, induces cell cycle arrest, and enhances myoblast differentiation. However, although ?Np63? has no significant effect on cell proliferation, the overexpression of ?Np63? inhibits myoblast differentiation. Using isoform-specific overexpression assays following RNA-sequencing, we identified potential downstream genes of TAp63? and ?Np63? in myoblast. Bioinformatics analyses and experimental verification results showed that the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the TAp63? and control groups were enriched in the cell cycle pathway, whereas the DEGs between the ?Np63? and control groups were enriched in muscle system process, muscle contraction, and myopathy. These findings provide new insights into the function and expression of TP63 during skeletal muscle development, and indicate that one gene may play two opposite roles during a single cellular process.
