Project description:Pre-mRNA splicing is a highly regulated process catalyzing intron excision by spliceosome. Spliceosome activation is a major control step requiring dramatic protein and RNA rearrangements leading to a catalytically active complex. Prior research has linked hyperphosphorylation of SF3B1, a subunit of U2 snRNP, with spliceosome activation and catalytically active spliceosome, rendering a relevant kinase a key player for pre-mRNA splicing. Here we use OTS964, the first potent inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 11 (CDK11), to show rapid and selective dephosphorylation of SF3B1 on threonines required for spliceosome activation. CDK11 associates with SF3B1 and its inhibition causes massive intron retention, block in precatalytic spliceosome complex B to activated spliceosome complex Bact transition and accumulation of non-functional spliceosomes on pre-mRNA and chromatin. These studies reveal crucial regulatory role of CDK11 in human pre-mRNA splicing and define the compound OTS964 as a quality chemical biology probe for CDK11.

Project description:Human DIS3 is a nuclear, catalytic subunit of the exosome complex containing exonucleolytic and endonucleolytic active domains. To identify DIS3 targets genome-wide we conducted comprehensive transcriptomic analysis of HEK293 cells producing mutated DIS3 versions and Photoactivatable Ribonucleoside-Enhanced Crosslinking and Immunoprecipitation (PAR-CLIP) experiments. Pervasive transcription products like Promoter Upstream Transcripts (PROMPTs) accumulated robustly in catalytic DIS3 mutants, representing ~8% of PAR-CLIP reads. Importantly, RNAs originating from unannotated genomic regions increased ~2.5 times in double DIS3 mutants, covering ~70% of genome and allowing for discovery of thousands of novel transcripts. The first intron of many pre-mRNAs accumulated in DIS3 mutants indicating a widespread premature RNA polymerase II termination. The short form of NEAT1 lincRNA was overexpressed in DIS3 mutants, leading to increased number of paraspeckles. Moreover, there was a global deregulation of mRNAs in DIS3 double mutant. Finally, snoRNA precursors accumulated, which correlated with a strong PAR-CLIP signal indicating that DIS3 but not RRP6 is a main snoRNA processing enzyme. In aggregate, we demonstrate that DIS3 is a major nucleoplasmic activity responsible for shaping the human transcriptome.

Project description:RNA splicing, the process of intron removal from pre-mRNA, is essential for the regulation of gene expression. It is controlled by the spliceosome, a megadalton RNA-protein complex that assembles de novo on each pre-mRNA intron via an ordered assembly of intermediate complexes. Spliceosome activation is a major control step requiring dramatic protein and RNA rearrangements leading to a catalytically active complex. Splicing factor 3B subunit 1 (SF3B1) protein, a subunit of the U2 snRNP, is phosphorylated during spliceosome activation, but the responsible kinase has not been identified. Here we show that cyclin-dependent kinase 11 (CDK11) associates with SF3B1 and phosphorylates threonine residues at its N-terminus during spliceosome activation. The phosphorylation is important for association of SF3B1 with U5 and U6 snRNAs in spliceosome activated Bact complex and it can be blocked by OTS964, a potent and selective inhibitor of CDK11. CDK11 inhibition prevents spliceosomal transition from the precatalytic complex B to the activated complex Bact and leads to widespread intron retention and accumulation of non-functional spliceosomes on pre-mRNAs and chromatin. We characterize OTS964 as a quality chemical biology probe for CDK11 and demonstrate a central role of CDK11 in spliceosome assembly and splicing regulation.

Project description:Aneuploidy is the leading cause of miscarriage and congenital birth defects, and a hallmark of cancer. Despite this strong association with human disease, the genetic causes of aneuploidy remain largely unknown. Through exome sequencing of patients with constitutional mosaic aneuploidy, we identified biallelic truncating mutations in CENATAC (CCDC84). We show that CENATAC is a novel component of the minor (U12-dependent) spliceosome that promotes splicing of a specific, rare minor intron subtype. This subtype is characterized by AT-AN splice sites and relatively high basal levels of intron retention. CENATAC depletion or expression of disease mutants resulted in excessive retention of AT-AN minor introns in ~100 genes enriched for nucleocytoplasmic transport and cell cycle regulators, and caused chromosome segregation errors. Our findings reveal selectivity in minor intron splicing and suggest a link between minor spliceosome defects and constitutional aneuploidy in humans.

Project description:At human body temperature, the fungal pathogen Candida albicans can transition from yeast to filamentous morphologies in response to host-relevant cues. Additionally, elevated temperatures encountered during febrile episodes can independently induce C. albicans filamentation. However, the underlying genetic pathways governing this developmental transition in response to elevated temperature remain largely unexplored. Here, we conducted a functional genomic screen to unravel the genetic mechanisms orchestrating C. albicans filamentation specifically in response to elevated temperature, implicating 45% of genes associated with the spliceosome or pre-mRNA splicing in this process. Employing RNA-Seq to elucidate the relationship between mRNA splicing and filamentation, we identified greater levels of intron retention in filaments compared to yeast, which correlated with reduced expression of the affected genes. Intriguingly, homozygous deletion of a gene encoding a spliceosome component important for filamentation (PRP19) caused even greater levels of intron retention compared with wild-type and globally dysregulated gene expression. This suggests that intron retention is a mechanism for fine-tuning gene expression during filamentation, with perturbations of the spliceosome exacerbating this process and blocking filamentation. Overall, this study unveils a novel biological process governing C. albicans filamentation, providing new insights into the complex regulation of this key virulence trait.

Project description:Most metazoans contain two distinct pre-mRNA splicing machineries: the major spliceosome, which removes >99% of introns, and the minor spliceosome, which recognizes <1% of introns. Despite their rarity, minor introns are exquisitely conserved amongst species, suggesting important regulatory functions. However, physiologic roles for the minor spliceosome and the relevance of recurrent, leukemia-associated mutations affecting minor spliceosome components are not well understood. Here, we identify that mutational loss of the minor spliceosomal factor ZRSR2 enhances hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal via impaired minor intron splicing that converges on LZTR1, a regulator of Ras-related GTPases. LZTR1 minor intron retention is additionally observed in Noonan syndrome and diverse cancers. These data uncover minor intron recognition as a regulator of hematopoiesis and mechanistic links between ZRSR2 mutations, LZTR1, and leukemia.

Project description:c-MYC (MYC) overexpression or hyperactivation is one of the most common drivers of human cancer. Despite intensive study, the MYC oncogene remains recalcitrant to therapeutic inhibition. Like other classic oncogenes, hyperactivation of MYC leads to collateral stresses onto cancer cells, suggesting that tumors harbor unique vulnerabilities arising from oncogenic activation of MYC. Herein, we discover the spliceosome as a new target of oncogenic stress in MYC-driven cancers. We identify BUD31 as a MYC-synthetic lethal gene, and demonstrate that BUD31 is a splicing factor required for the assembly and catalytic activity of the spliceosome. Core spliceosomal factors (SF3B1, U2AF1, and others) associate with BUD31 and are also required to tolerate oncogenic MYC. Notably, MYC hyperactivation induces an increase in total pre-mRNA synthesis, suggesting an increased burden on the core spliceosome to process pre-mRNA. In contrast to normal cells, partial inhibition of the spliceosome in MYC-hyperactivated cells leads to global intron retention, widespread defects in pre-mRNA maturation, and deregulation of many essential cell processes. Importantly, genetic or pharmacologic inhibition of the spliceosome in vivo impairs survival, tumorigenicity, and metastatic proclivity of MYC-dependent breast cancers. Collectively, these data suggest that oncogenic MYC confers a collateral stress on splicing and that components of the spliceosome may be therapeutic entry points for aggressive MYC-driven cancers.
