Integrator restrains paraspeckles assembly by promoting isoform switching of the lncRNA NEAT1

ABSTRACT: Alternative RNA 3’-end processing provides an important source of transcriptome diversification, which impacts various biological processes and the etiology of diseases, including cancer. A prime example of this is the transcript isoform switch that leads to the read-through expression of the long non-coding RNA NEAT1_2, at the expense of the shorter polyadenylated transcript NEAT1_1. Expression of NEAT1_2 is required for the formation of paraspeckles (PS), nuclear bodies that protect cancer cells from oncogene-induced replication stress and chemotherapy. Searching for proteins that modulate this isoform switching event we identified factors involved in the 3’-end processing of polyadenylated (pA+) RNA as well as several components of the Integrator complex. Perturbation experiments established that, by promoting the cleavage of NEAT1_2, Integrator forces NEAT1_2 to NEAT1_1 isoform switching and, thereby, restrains PS assembly. Consistently, low expression levels of several Integrator subunits correlated with poorer prognosis of cancer patients exposed to chemotherapeutics. Our study identifies Integrator as a key regulator of PS biogenesis and establish a link between Integrator, cancer biology and chemosensitivity, which may be exploited therapeutically.

Integrator restraints paraspeckles assembly by promoting the 3’-end processing of the polyadenylated lncRNA NEAT1_1

Project description:Alternative 3’-end RNA processing provides an important source of transcriptome diversification, which impacts various biological processes and the etiology of diseases, including cancer. Here, we focused on a transcript isoform switch that leads to the readthrough expression of the long noncoding RNA NEAT1_2, at the expense of the shorter polyadenylated transcript NEAT1_1. Expression of NEAT1_2 is required for the formation of paraspeckles (PS), nuclear bodies that protect cancer cells from oncogene-induced replication stress and chemotherapy. Searching for proteins that interact with endogenous NEAT1 by RNA Affinity Purification coupled to mass spectrometry (RAP-MS), we identified factors involved in the 3’-end processing of polyadenylated (pA+) RNA as well as several components of the Integrator complex, known to process the 3’-ends of RNAs lacking polyadenylation sites. Unexpectedly, genetic perturbation experiments established that Integrator restraints NEAT1_2 expression, and thereby PS assembly, by promoting the 3’-end processing of pA+ NEAT1_1. Consistently, low expression levels of several Integrator subunits correlated with poorer prognosis of cancer patients exposed to chemotherapeutics. Our study identifies Integrator as a key regulator of PS biogenesis and highlights a previously unrecognized ability of the complex to process pA+ RNA. The data also establish a link between Integrator, cancer biology and chemosensitivity, which may be exploited therapeutically.

The lncRNA NEAT1_1 is seemingly dispensable for normal tissue homeostasis and cancer cell growth

Project description:NEAT1 is one of the most studied lncRNAs, in part because its silencing in mice causes defects in mammary gland development and corpus luteum formation and protects them from skin cancer development. Moreover, depleting NEAT1 in established cancer cell lines reduces growth and sensitizes cells to DNA damaging agents. However, NEAT1 produces two isoforms and because the short isoform, NEAT1_1, completely overlaps the 5' part of the long NEAT1_2 isoform, the respective contributions of each of the isoforms to these phenotypes has remained unclear. Whereas NEAT1_1 is highly expressed in most tissues, NEAT1_2 is the central architectural component of paraspeckles, which are nuclear bodies that assemble in specific tissues and cells exposed to various forms of stress. Using dual RNA-FISH to detect both NEAT1_1 outside of paraspeckles and NEAT1_2/NEAT1 inside this nuclear body, we report herein that NEAT1_1 levels are dynamically regulated during the cell cycle and targeted for degradation by the nuclear RNA exosome. Unexpectedly, however, cancer cells engineered to lack NEAT1_1, but not NEAT1_2, do not exhibit cell cycle defects. Moreover, Neat1_1-specific knockout mice do not exhibit the phenotypes observed in Neat1-deficient mice. We propose that NEAT1 functions are mainly, if not exclusively, attributable to NEAT1_2 and, by extension, to paraspeckles.

MUC1-C REGULATES NEAT1 lncRNA EXPRESSION AND PARASPECKLE FORMATION IN CANCER STEM CELLS

Project description:MUC1-C subunit plays an essential role in regulating NEAT1 expression. MUC1-C activates the NEAT1 gene with induction of the NEAT1_1 and NEAT1_2 isoforms by NF-kB- and MYC-mediated mechanisms. MUC1-C/MYC signaling also induces expression of the SFPQ, NONO and FUS RNA binding proteins (RBPs) that associate with NEAT1_2 and are necessary for paraspeckle formation.

The Integrator complex controls the termination of transcription at diverse classes of gene targets

Project description:Complexes containing INTS3 and either NABP1 or NABP2 were initially characterized in DNA damage responses, but their biochemical function remained unknown. Using affinity purifications and HIV Integration Targeting-Sequencing (HIT-Seq), we find that these complexes are part of the Integrator complex, which binds RNA Polymerase II and regulates specific target genes. Integrator cleaves snRNAs as part of their processing to their mature form in a mechanism that is intimately coupled with transcription termination. However, HIT-Seq reveals that Integrator also binds to the 3’ end of replication-dependent histones and promoter proximal regions of genes with polyadenylated transcripts. Depletion of Integrator subunits results in transcription termination failure, disrupting histone mRNA processing, and leading to polyadenylation of snRNAs and histone mRNAs. Furthermore, promoter proximal binding of Integrator negatively regulates expression of genes whose transcripts are normally polyadenylated. Integrator recruitment to all three gene classes is DSIF-dependent, suggesting that Integrator functions as a termination complex at DSIF-dependent RNA Polymerase II pause sites. HITseq was used to interrogate chromatin binding sites of of proteins in the complex (including INIP, INTS3, INTS9, INTS11, NABP1, NABP2, NELFA, NELFB, NELFCD, NELFE, SPT5). These proteins were fused to LEDGF-IBD and expressed in mouse LEDGF-/-MEF cells. The fusion proteins then target HIV integration to the chromatin binding sites. The HIV integration sites were identified using linker-mediated PCR and highthroughput sequencing and serve as surrogate for chromatin binding sites. Mapping was done using mouse genome mm9.

Genome-wide screening of NEAT1 regulators reveals mito-paraspeckle communication

Project description:The long non-coding RNA NEAT1 (nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1) nucleates the formation of paraspeckles, which constitute a type of nuclear body that has multiple roles in gene expression. How the NEAT1 gene itself is regulated and how paraspeckles communicate with other cell compartments remains poorly understood. Here we identify regulators of NEAT1 transcription using an endogenous NEAT1 promoter-driven EGFP reporter in human cells coupled with genome-wide RNAi screens. In addition to transcription factors and chromatin modulators, the screens unexpectedly yielded gene candidates involved in mitochondrial functions as essential regulators of NEAT1 expression and paraspeckle formation. Mitochondrial defects altered NEAT1 transcription via ATF2 and subsequently uncoupled 3’ end processing of NEAT1_1 from its long isoform to favour NEAT1_2 production, which is key for generating elongated paraspeckles that have different features from the regular, globular bodies. Correspondingly, NEAT1 depletion has profound effects on mitochondrial dynamics and function by altering sequestration of mRNAs of mitochondrial genes enriched in paraspeckles. Overall, our data provided a rich resource for understanding NEAT1 and paraspeckle regulation, and revealed an unexpected crosstalk between cytoplasmic organelles and nuclear bodies.

NEAT1 Modulates the TIRR/53BP1 Complex to Maintain Genome Integrity

Project description:Tudor Interacting Repair Regulator (TIRR) is an RNA-binding protein (RBP) that interacts directly with 53BP1, restricting its access to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and its association with p53. We utilized iCLIP to identify RNAs that directly bind to TIRR within cells, identifying NEAT1_1, the short isoform of the long noncoding RNA NEAT1, as the primary RNA partner. The high affinity of TIRR for NEAT1_1 is due to prevalent G-rich motifs in NEAT1_1. This interaction destabilizes the TIRR/53BP1 complex, promoting 53BP1's function. NEAT1_1 is enriched during the G1 phase of the cell cycle, thereby ensuring that TIRR-dependent inhibition of 53BP1’s function is cell cycle-dependent. TDP-43, an RBP that is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, modulates the TIRR/53BP1 complex by promoting NEAT1_1 production. Together, we infer that NEAT1_1, and factors regulating NEAT1_1, may impact 53BP1-dependent DNA repair processes, with implications for a spectrum of diseases.

Virus modified paraspeckles are essential hubs for gene expression and their formation drives genomic instability

Project description:The nucleus is a highly organised yet dynamic environment containing distinct membrane nuclear bodies. This spatial separation enables a subset of components to be concentrated within bimolecular condensates, allowing efficient and discrete processes to occur which regulate cellular function. One such nuclear body, paraspeckles, are comprised of multiple paraspeckle proteins (PSPs) built around the architectural RNA, NEAT1_2. Paraspeckle function is yet to be fully elucidated but has been implicated in a variety of developmental and disease scenarios.  We demonstrate that Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) drives formation of structurally distinct paraspeckles with a dramatically increased size and altered protein composition that are essential for productive lytic replication. We highlight these virus-modified paraspeckles form adjacent to virus replication centres, functioning as RNA processing hubs for both viral and cellular transcripts during infection. Notably, we reveal that PSP sequestration into virus-modified paraspeckles results in increased genome instability during both KSHV and Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infection, implicating their formation in virus-mediated tumorigenesis.
