A systematic characterization of Cwc21, the yeast ortholog of the human spliceosomal protein SRm300

ABSTRACT: Cwc21 (complexed with CEF1 protein 21) is a 135 amino acid yeast protein that shares homology with the N-terminal domain of human SRm300, a large serine/arginine-repeat protein shown previously to associate with the splicing coactivator SRm160. Proteomic analysis of spliceosomal complexes has suggested a role for Cwc21 and SRm300 at the core of the spliceosome. However, specific functions for these proteins have remained elusive. In this report we employ quantitative genetic interaction mapping, mass-spectrometry of tandem affinity purified complexes and microarray profiling to investigate genetic, physical and functional interactions involving Cwc21. Combined data from these assays support multiple roles for Cwc21 in the formation and function of splicing complexes. Consistent with a role for Cwc21 at the core of the spliceosome, we observe strong genetic, physical and functional interactions with Isy1, a protein previously implicated in the first catalytic step of splicing and splicing fidelity. Together, the results suggest multiple functions for Cwc21/SRm300 in the splicing process, including an important role in the activation of splicing in association with Isy1.

Functional splicing network reveals extensive regulatory plasticity of the core Spliceosomal machinery

Project description:Pre-mRNA splicing relies on the still poorly understood dynamic interplay between more than 150 protein components of the Spliceosome, and the steps at which splicing can be regulated remain largely unknown. Here we systematically analyze the effect of knocking down the components of the splicing machinery on alternative splicing events relevant for cell proliferation and apoptosis and use this information to reconstruct a network of functional interactions. The network accurately captures well-established physical and functional associations and identifies new, revealing remarkable regulatory potential of core spliceosomal components, related to the order and duration of their recruitment during Spliceosome assembly. In contrast with standard models of regulation at early events of splice site recognition, factors involved in catalytic activation of the Spliceosome display regulatory properties. The network also sheds light on the antagonism between hnRNP C and U2AF and on targets of anti-tumor drugs, and can be widely used to identify mechanisms of splicing regulation. RNA from 3 biological replicates of 72 hours knockdowns of human IK or SMU1 and a control set were used. Changes between the control and knockdowns were measured based on using a splice-junction array (Affymetrix HJAY).

Transcript Specificity in Yeast Pre-mRNA Splicing Revealed by Mutations in Core Spliceosomal Components

Project description:Appropriate expression of most eukaryotic genes requires the removal of introns from their pre-messenger RNAs (pre-mRNAs), a process catalyzed by the spliceosome. In higher eukaryotes a large family of auxiliary factors known as SR proteins can improve the splicing efficiency of transcripts containing suboptimal splice sites by interacting with distinct sequences present in those pre-mRNAs. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacks functional equivalents of most of these factors; thus, it has been unclear whether the spliceosome could effectively distinguish among transcripts. To address this question, we have used a microarray-based approach to examine the effects of mutations in 18 highly conserved core components of the spliceosomal machinery. The kinetic profiles reveal clear differences in the splicing defects of particular pre-mRNA substrates. Most notably, the behaviors of ribosomal protein gene transcripts are generally distinct from other intron-containing transcripts in response to several spliceosomal mutations. However, dramatically different behaviors can be seen for some pairs of transcripts encoding ribosomal protein gene paralogs, suggesting that the spliceosome can readily distinguish between otherwise highly similar pre-mRNAs. The ability of the spliceosome to distinguish among its different substrates may therefore offer an important opportunity for yeast to regulate gene expression in a transcript-dependent fashion. Given the high level of conservation of core spliceosomal components across eukaryotes, we expect that these results will significantly impact our understanding of how regulated splicing is controlled in higher eukaryotes as well.

psiCLIP of SmB, Prp16 and Prp22 in C, C* and P spliceosomal complexes

Project description:Despite the major progress made into spliceosome mechanisms through CryoEM, a major obstacle of this approach is its inability to map the positioning of helicases on the RNA substrate. Here we present a method ‘psiCLIP’ which probes protein-RNA interactions in specific spliceosomal states. The method is based on iCLIP, but is different to previous iCLIP studies in that it is performed on step-specific spliceosomes that are prepared from in vitro splicing extracts, similarly to those prepared for CryoEM. We applied psiCLIP to SmB (C complex), Prp16 (C complex) and Prp22 (C* and P complexes), using pre-mRNA substrates based on UBC4 and ACT1. We also used ATPase deficient dominant negative (dn) mutants of Prp16 and Prp22 to determine the contribution of ATPase activity to binding patterns.

Overlapping roles of spliceosomal components SF3B1 and PHF5A in rice splicing regulation

Project description:The SF3B complex, a multiprotein component of the U2 snRNP of the spliceosome, mediates branch point selection and facilitates spliceosome assembly and activation. Several splicing modulators bind the SF3B1 and PHF5A subunits of the SF3B complex and globally inhibit splicing. Engineered mutant variants of SF3B1 and PHF5A conferred tolerance to splicing inhibitors with only minor effects on gene expression and AS.

Oncogenic MYC induces a dependency on the spliceosome in human cancer

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.

Modeling of the U1 snRNP assembly pathway in alternative splicing in human cells using Petri nets

Project description:The investigation of spliceosomal processes is currently a topic of intense research in molecular biology. In the molecular mechanism of alternative splicing, a multi-protein–RNA complex – the spliceosome – plays a crucial role. To understand the biological processes of alternative splicing, it is essential to comprehend the biogenesis of the spliceosome. In this paper, we propose the first abstract model of the regulatory assembly pathway of the human spliceosomal subunit U1. Using Petri nets, we describe its highly ordered assembly that takes place in a stepwise manner.

Mutation of Arabidopsis SME1 improves oxidative stress resilience

Project description:Alternative splicing is an important posttranscriptional gene regulatory process, acting in diverse adaptive and basal plant processes. Splicing of precursor-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) is catalyzed by a dynamic ribonucleoprotein complex, termed the spliceosome. In a suppressor screen, we identified a nonsense mutation in the Sm protein SME1 to alleviate photorespiratory H2O2-dependent cell death in catalase-deficient plants. Furthermore, sme1-2 mutants showed increased tolerance to the superoxide-generating herbicide methyl viologen. mRNA-seq and proteomic analyses indicated a constitutive stress response and pre-mRNA splicing alterations in sme1-2 mutants under control conditions. With a pulldown experiment, using SME1 as a bait, we provide experimental evidence for proteins associated with Arabidopsis thaliana spliceosome complexes, by identifying almost 50 proteins homologous to mammalian spliceosome-associated proteins and propose four novel proteins previously not-reported or hypothesized to be part of plant spliceosome complexes. Mutation of one of these interactors, the Sm core assembly protein ICLN also resulted in a decreased sensitivity to methyl viologen. Taken together, we show that SME1 mutation and impaired snRNP assembly result in enhanced resilience to oxidative stress.

Substoichiometric ribose methylations in spliceosomal snRNAs

Project description:Sequencing-based profiling of ribose methylations is a new approach that allows for experiments adrressing dynamic changes on a large scale. Here, we apply such a method to spliceosomal snRNAs present in human whole cell RNA. Analysis of solid tissue samples confirmed all previously known sites and demonstrated close to full methylation at almost all sites. Methylation changes were revealed in biological experimental settings, using T cell activation as an example, and in the T cell leukemia model, Jurkat cells. Such changes could impact the dynamics of snRNA interactions during the spliceosome cycle and affect mRNA splicing efficiency and splicing patterns.
