Mutant PRPF8 causes widespread splicing changes in spliceosome components in retinitis pigmentosa patient RPE cells

ABSTRACT: Retinitis pigmentosa is a rare, progressive disease which affects photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells with blindness as a final outcome. Despite high medical and social impact, there is currently no therapeutic options to slow down the progression or cure the disease. The development of effective therapies was largely hindered by high genetic heterogeneity, inaccessible disease tissue and unfaithful model organisms. The fact that components of ubiquitously expressed splicing factors lead to the retina-specific disease is an additional intriguing question. Herein, we sought to correlate the retinal cell type-specific disease phenotype with the splicing profile shown by a patient with autosomal recessive RP, caused by a mutation in pre–mRNA splicing factor 8 (PRPF8). In order to get insight into the role of PRPF8 in homeostasis and disease, we capitalize on the ability to generate patient-specific RPE cells and reveal differentially expressed genes unique to RPE cells. We found that spliceosomal complex and ribosomal functions are crucial in determining cell type specificity through differential expression and alternative splicing (AS), and that PRPF8 mutation causes global changes in splice site selection and exon inclusion that particularly affect genes involved in these cellular functions. This finding corroborates the hypothesis that retinal tissue identity is conferred by specific splicing program, and identifies retinal AS events as a framework towards the design of novel therapeutic opportunities.

PRPF8-mediated dysregulation of hBrr2 helicase disrupts human spliceosome kinetics and 5´-splice-site selection causing tissue-specific defects

Project description:Mutations in the carboxy terminal of the core spliceosome factor PRPF8 cause autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (RP) 13. Comprehensive cellular, biochemical, and molecular investigations of iPSC-derived retinal organoids, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and kidney organoids from four patients carrying the pathogenic PRPF8 RP type 13 c.6926A>C (p.H2309P) heterozygous missense mutation, revealed retinal tissue-specific effects including lower splicing specificity, ciliary abnormalities, altered apical-basal polarity, rod degeneration and loss of photoreceptors. The p.H2309P mutation affected the 5’ splice site recognition by PRPF8 of transcripts encoding ciliary proteins, altered spliceosome kinetics and organisation of nuclear speckles as well as PRPF8 binding to spliceosomal U6 snRNAs and snoRNAs, leading to accumulation of unspliced poly A+ mRNAs specifically in RPE cells and retinal organoids. Together these data provide the most comprehensive characterisation of splicing factor causing RP disease, providing molecular insights into the tissue specificity of pathomechanisms and informing future therapeutic approaches.

PRPF8-mediated dysregulation of hBrr2 helicase disrupts human spliceosome kinetics and 5'-splice-site selection causing tissue-specific defects

Project description:The carboxy-terminus of the spliceosomal protein PRPF8, which regulates the RNA helicase Brr2, is a hotspot for mutations causing retinitis pigmentosa-type 13, with unclear role in human splicing and tissue-specificity mechanism. We used patient induced pluripotent stem cells-derived cells, carrying the heterozygous PRPF8 c.6926A>C (p.H2309P) mutation to demonstrate retinal-specific endophenotypes comprising photoreceptor loss, apical-basal polarity and ciliary defects. Comprehensive molecular, transcriptomic, and proteomic analyses revealed a role of the PRPF8/Brr2 regulation in 5’-splice site (5’SS) selection by spliceosomes, for which disruption impaired alternative splicing and weak/suboptimal 5’SS selection, and enhanced cryptic splicing, predominantly in ciliary and retinal-specific transcripts. Altered splicing efficiency, nuclear speckles organisation, and PRPF8 interaction with U6 snRNA, caused accumulation of active spliceosomes and poly(A)+ mRNAs in unique splicing clusters located at the nuclear periphery of photoreceptors. Collectively these elucidate the role of PRPF8/Brr2 regulatory mechanisms in splicing and the molecular basis of retinal disease, informing therapeutic approaches.

Splicing factor PRPF31 retinitis pigmentosa (RP11) is caused by disrupted alternative splicing programmes for genes implicated in pre-mRNA splicing, cellular adhesion and ciliogenesis

Project description:Mutations in pre-mRNA processing factors (PRPFs) cause autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (RP), but it is unclear why mutations in ubiquitously expressed genes cause retinal disease. We have generated transcriptome profiles from RP11 (PRPF31-mutated) patient-derived retinal organoids and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), as well as Prpf31+/- mouse tissues, which revealed that disrupted alternative splicing occurred for specific splicing programmes. Mis-splicing of genes encoding pre-mRNA splicing proteins was limited to patient-specific retinal cells and Prpf31+/- mouse retinae and RPE. Mis-splicing of genes implicated in ciliogenesis and cellular adhesion was associated with severe RPE defects that include disrupted apical-basal polarity, reduced trans-epithelial resistance and phagocytic capacity, and decreased cilia length and incidence. Disrupted cilia morphology also occurred in patient-derived photoreceptors, associated with progressive degeneration and cellular stress. In situ gene-editing of a pathogenic mutation rescued protein expression and key cellular phenotypes in RPE and photoreceptors, providing proof-of-concept for future therapeutic strategies.

PRPF8 iCLIP on HeLa cells in response to eIF4A3 Knockdown

Project description:This experiment uses iCLIP to identify the binding pattern of the spliceosomal protein PRPF8 on RNA. The data shows that PRPF8 binds strongly and specifically in the region 12 to 14nt upstream of 5' splice sites (5ss). Due to PRPF8's role in the formation of the catalytically active spliceosome, this data can be used as a readout of 5ss selection. Here, we performed iCLIP on HeLa cells treated with control or EIF4A3 siRNA, with 4 replicate samples per condition and eIF4A3 protein levels reduced ~50% in knockdown. We investigated the role of the exon junction complex (EJC) in suppressing 5ss that are reconstituted at the junction of two canonical exons (RS-5ss) - selection of these splice sites would result in recursive splicing of canonical exons. We plotted the crosslink sites of reads that span an exon-exon junction, seperating reads that span RS-5ss from those that do not. We found that reads that span an RS-5ss are enriched at the 12-14nt window associated with 5ss selection, while reads that span other exon-exon junctions are not enriched. This effect is magnified greatly by knockdown of eIF4A3. The results indicate that RS-5ss can be used by the spliceosome, but that this process is usually repressed by the EJC. This data is evidence of recursive splicing of canonical exons and the role of the EJC in repressing recursive splicing.

Transcriptome wide identification of retained introns upon depletion of the splicing factors SNW1 or PRPF8

Project description:We identified which mRNAs are dependent on the splicing factors SNW1 or PRPF8. These factors were depleted in HeLa cells by RNAi, and the levels of intronic reads in mRNAs was compared to control RNAi. Intronic reads from polyA containing RNAs from HeLa cells and mSnw1-LAP 'rescued' cells, both depleted for endogenous SNW1, were compared. Furthermore, intronic reads from polyA containing RNAs from HeLa cells depleted for SNW1 or PRPF8 were compared to control depleted HeLa cells.
