The mRNA export receptor NXF1 coordinates transcriptional dynamics, alternative polyadenylation and mRNA export

ABSTRACT: Alternative polyadenylation (APA) produces mRNA isoforms with different 3’UTR lengths. Previous studied indicated that 3’ end processing and mRNA nuclear export are intertwined in gene regulation. Here, we show that mRNA export factors generally facilitate usage of distal cleavage and polyadenylation sites (PASs), leading to expression of long 3’UTR isoforms. By focusing on the export receptor NXF1, which exhibits the most potent effect on APA in this study, we reveal a number of gene features that impact NXF1-dependent APA, including 3’UTR size, gene size and AT content. Surprisingly, downregulation of NXF1 results in accumulation of RNAP II at the 3’ end of genes, correlating with its role in APA regulation. Moreover, we show that NXF1 cooperates with CFI-68 to facilitate nuclear export of long 3’UTR isoform with UGUA motifs. Together, our work reveals several important roles of NXF1 in coordinating RNAPII distribution, 3’ end processing, and mRNA export of long 3’UTR transcripts, implicating NXF1 as the nexus of gene expression regulation.

Cellular stress alters 3’UTR landscape through alternative polyadenylation and isoform-specific degradation

Project description:Most eukaryotic genes express alternative polyadenylation (APA) isoforms with different lengths of 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR). Here we show arsenic stress elicits global shortening of 3’UTRs through two mechanisms. First, stress leads to immediate shortening of 3’UTR due to preferential usage of proximal cleavage and polyadenylation sites (PASs), as revealed by 3’ end sequencing of newly made RNAs that are metabolically labeled with 4-thiouridine. Second, long 3’UTR isoforms are more rapidly degraded during recovery from stress as compared to short 3’UTR isoforms, further shortening 3’UTR lengths in the cell. Using ribonucleoprotein immunoprecipitation coupled with 3’ end sequencing (3’READS+RIP), we show that the RNA-binding protein T cell-restricted intracellular antigen-1 (Tia1) preferentially interacts with long 3’UTR isoforms via U-rich elements in alternative 3’UTR sequences, and the interaction correlates with stress granule (SG) association during stress and with mRNA decay during recovery from stress, indicating SG-mediated RNA clearance mechanism post stress. Importantly, genes whose 3’UTRs are shortened by APA during stress can evade stress-induced 3’UTR size-based mRNA degradation, leading to higher transcript abundance post stress. Moreover, proliferating and differentiated cells display different extents of 3’UTR shortening after stress, indicating cell type-specific of impact of stress on the 3’UTR landscape. Together, our data indicate that 3’UTR length plays important roles in gene expression in stressed cells, and APA functions as an adaptive stress response mechanism to preserve mRNAs.

A compendium of conserved cleavage and polyadenylation events in mammalian genes

Project description:Cleavage and polyadenylation is essential for 3’ end processing of almost all eukaryotic mRNAs. Recent studies have shown widespread alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) events leading to mRNA isoforms with different 3’UTRs and/or coding sequences. Here we present a compendium of conserved cleavage and polyadenylation sites (PASs) in mammalian genes, based on ~1.2 billion 3’ end sequencing reads from over 360 human, mouse and rat samples. We show that ~80% of mammalian mRNA genes contain at least one conserved PAS, and ~50% have conserved APA events. PAS conservation generally reduces promiscuous 3’ end processing, stabling gene expression levels across species. Conservation of APA correlates with gene age, gene expression features, and gene functions. Genes with certain functions, such as cell morphology, cell proliferation, and mRNA metabolism, are particularly enriched with APA events. While tissue-specific genes typically have a low APA rate, brain-specific genes tend to evolve APA. We show enrichment of mRNA destabilizing motifs in alternative 3’UTR sequences, leading to substantial differences in mRNA stability between 3’UTR APA isoforms. Using conserved PASs, we reveal sequence motifs surrounding APA sites and a preference of adenosine at the cleavage site. Mutations of the U-rich motif around the PAS often accompany APA profile changes between species. Analysis of lncRNA PASs indicates a mechanism of PAS fixation involving evolution of A-rich motifs. Taken together, our results present a comprehensive view of PAS evolution in mammals, and a phylogenic understanding of APA functions.

SRSF7 and SRSF3 affectSRSF7 and SRSF3 affect 3’UTR length in opposite directions by controlling proximal poly(A)-site usage and CFIm levels 3’UTR length in opposite directions by controlling proximal poly(A)-site usage and CFIm levels

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) refers to the regulated selection of polyadenylation sites (PASs) in transcripts, which affects the length of their 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs). APA regulates stage- and tissue-specific gene expression by affecting the stability, subcellular localization or translation rate of transcripts. We have recently shown that SRSF3 and SRSF7, two closely related SR proteins, link APA to mRNA export. However, the underlying mechanism for APA regulation by SRSF3 and SRSF7 remained unknown. Here, we combined iCLIP and 3’-end sequencing to find that both proteins bind upstream of proximal PAS (pPAS), but exert opposing effects on 3’UTR length. We show that SRSF7 enhances pPAS usage in a splicing-independent and concentration-dependent manner by recruiting the cleavage factor FIP1, thereby generating short 3’UTRs. SRSF7-specific domains that are absent in SRSF3 are necessary and sufficient for FIP1 recruitment. SRSF3 promotes long 3’UTRs by maintaining high levels of the cleavage factor Im (CFIm) via alternative splicing. Using iCLIP, we show that CFIm binds before and after the pPASs of SRSF3 targets, which masks them and inhibits polyadenylation. In the absence of SRSF3, CFIm levels are strongly reduced, which exposes the pPASs and leads to shorter 3’UTRs. Conversely, during cellular differentiation, 3’UTRs are massively extended, while the levels of SRSF7 and FIP1 strongly decline. Altogether, our data suggest that SRSF7 acts as a sequence-specific enhancer of pPASs, while SRSF3 inhibits pPAS usage by controlling CFIm levels. Our data shed light on a long-standing puzzle of how one factor (CFIm) can inhibit and enhance PAS usage.

Alternative 3’UTRs play a widespread role in translation-independent mRNA association with endoplasmic reticulum

Project description:Transcripts encoding membrane and secreted proteins are known to undergo translation on endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Translation-independent ER association (TiERA) has been reported for certain mRNAs, but the phenomenon is poorly understood. Here, using cell fractionation, polysome profiling, and 3’ end sequencing, we examine TiERA of poly(A)+ RNAs in mouse C2C12 myoblast cells. We identify transcript features that facilitate TiERA, including transcript size and GG and GC content. Consistent with the feature analysis, alternative polyadenylation (APA) isoforms differ substantially in TiERA, with long 3’UTR isoforms generally having a higher TiERA potential than short 3’UTR isoforms. Importantly, the widespread 3’UTR lengthening taking place in cell differentiation leads to greater transcript association with ER in differentiated myotubes, despite that the TiERA potential being generally maintained. In addition, we show that TiERA correlates negatively with mRNA stability, highlighting 3’UTR-mediated mRNA decay on ER. Together, our data indicate that sequence and size features impact ER association independent of translation, leading to distinct mRNA metabolism for different transcript groups, and APA can alter transcript stability and translation through isoform-specific ER association.

Activation and inhibition of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay control the abundance of alternative polyadenylation products

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) produces transcript 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs) with distinct sequences, lengths, stability, and functions. We show here that APA products include a class of cryptic nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) substrates with extended 3’UTRs that gene- or transcript-level analyses of NMD often fail to detect. Transcriptome-wide, the core NMD factor UPF1 preferentially recognizes long 3’UTR products of APA, leading to their systematic downregulation. Further, we find that many APA events consistently observed in multiple tumor types are controlled by NMD. Additionally, PTBP1, previously implicated in direct modulation of co-transcriptional polyA site choice, regulates the balance of short and long 3’UTR isoforms by inhibiting NMD. Our data suggest that PTBP1 binding near polyA sites can drive production of long 3’UTR APA products in the nucleus and/or protect them from decay in the cytoplasm. Together, our findings reveal a widespread role for NMD in shaping the outcomes of APA.

Selective nuclear export of specific classes of mRNA from mammalian nuclei is promoted by GANP

Project description:The nuclear phase of the gene expression pathway culminates in the export of mature mRNAs to the cytoplasm through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). GANP (Germinal-centre Associated Nuclear Protein) promotes the transfer to NPCs of mRNAs bound to the transport factor NXF1. Here, we demonstrate that GANP, subunit of the TREX-2 mRNA export complex, promotes selective nuclear export of a specific subset of mRNAs whose transport depends on NXF1. Genome-wide gene expression profiling showed that half of the transcripts whose nuclear export was impaired following NXF1 depletion also showed reduced export when GANP was depleted. GANP-dependent transcripts were highly expressed, yet short-lived, and were highly enriched in those encoding central components of the gene expression machinery such as RNA synthesis and processing factors. After injection into Xenopus oocyte nuclei, representative GANP-dependent transcripts showed faster nuclear export kinetics than representative transcripts that were not influenced by GANP depletion. We propose that GANP promotes the nuclear export of specific classes of mRNAs that may facilitate rapid changes in gene expression. We used gene expression profiling to compare the abundance of cytoplasmic RNAs after GANP or NXF1 depletion

Budding yeast mRNA export and processing factor localization

Project description:The yeast mRNA export adaptor Yra1 binds the Pcf11 subunit of cleavage-polyadenylation factor CF1A linking export to 3'-end formation. We found a surprising consequence of this interaction is that Yra1 influences cleavage-polyadenylation. Yra1 competes with the CF1A subunit, Clp1, for binding to Pcf11, and excess Yra1 inhibits 3' processing in vitro. Release of Yra1 at the 3' ends of genes coincides with recruitment of Clp1, and depletion of Yra1 enhances Clp1 recruitment within some genes. These results suggest that CF1A is not necessarily recruited as a complete unit, but instead Clp1 can be incorporated co-transcriptionally in a process regulated by Yra1. Yra1 depletion causes widespread changes in poly(A) site choice particularly at sites where the efficiency element is divergently positioned. We propose that one way Yra1 modulates cleavage-polyadenylation is by influencing co-transcriptional assembly of the CF1A/B 3' processing factor.

Gene architecture and sequence composition underpin selective dependency of long RNAs on components of the nuclear export pathway

Project description:The nuclear export pathway transports long RNAs produced in the nucleus to the cytoplasm. The core components of this pathway are thought to be required for export of virtually all polyadenylated RNAs. Here, we depleted different proteins that act in nuclear export in human cells, and quantified the transcriptome-wide consequences on RNA localization. Different genes exhibited substantially variable sensitivities, with depletion of NXF1 and TREX components causing some transcripts to become strongly retained in the nucleus while others were not affected. Specifically, NXF1 is preferentially required for export of single- or few-exon transcripts with long exons or high A/U-content, whereas depletion of TREX complex components preferentially affects spliced and G/C-rich transcripts. Using massively parallel reporter assays we identified short sequence elements that render transcripts dependent on NXF1 for their export, and identified synergistic effects of splicing and NXF1. These results revise the current model of how nuclear export shapes the distribution of RNA within human cells.

Alternative polyadenylation alters protein dosage by switching between intronic and 3' UTR sites

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) creates distinct transcripts from the same gene by cleaving the pre-mRNA at poly(A) sites that can lie within the 3' UTR, introns, or exons. Most studies focus on APA within the 3' UTR, but here we show that CPSF6 insufficiency alters protein levels and causes a developmental syndrome by deregulating APA throughout the transcript. In neonatal humans and zebrafish larvae, CPSF6 insufficiency shifts poly(A) site usage between the 3'UTR and internal sites in a pathway-specific manner. Genes associated with neuronal function undergo mostly intronic APA, reducing their expression, while genes associated with heart and skeletal function mostly undergo 3' UTR APA and are upregulated. This suggests that, in healthy conditions, cells toggle between internal and 3'UTR APA to modulate protein expression.
