Project description:The RNA helicases DDX5 and DDX17 facilitate neural differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells NTERA2

Project description:RNA helicases DDX5 and DDX17 are members of a large family of highly conserved proteins involved in gene expression regulation, although their in vivo targets and activities in biological processes like cell differentiation, that requires reprogramming of gene expression programs at multiple levels, are not well characterized. In this report, we uncovered a new mechanism by which DDX5 and DDX17 cooperate with hnRNP H/F splicing factors to define epithelial- and myoblast-specific splicing subprograms. We next observed that downregulation of DDX5 and DDX17 protein expression during epithelial to mesenchymal transdifferentiation and during myogenesis contributes to switching splicing programs during these processes. Remarkably, this downregulation is mediated by the production of microRNAs induced upon differentiation in a DDX5/DDX17-dependent manner. Since DDX5 and DDX17 also function as coregulators of master transcriptional regulators of differentiation, we propose to name these proteins “master orchestrators” of differentiation, that dynamically orchestrate several layers of gene expression. 6 samples of MCF7 cells exposed to different treatments were analyzed: 3 x siCTRL ; 3 x si(DDX5-17) AND 6 samples of MCF10 cells exposed to different treatments were analyzed: 3 x siCTRL ; 3 x si(DDX5-17)

Project description:Estrogen and androgen receptors (ER and AR) play key roles in breast and prostate cancers, respectively, where they regulate the transcription of large arrays of genes. The activities of ER and AR are controlled by large networks of protein kinases and transcriptional coregulators, including Ddx5 and its highly related paralog Ddx17. The Ddx5 and Ddx17 RNA helicases are also splicing regulators. Here, we report that Ddx5 and Ddx17 are master regulators of the estrogen- and androgen-signaling pathways by controlling transcription and splicing both upstream and downstream of the receptors. First, Ddx5 and Ddx17 are required downstream of ER and AR for the transcriptional and splicing regulation of a large number of steroid hormone target genes. Second, Ddx5 and Ddx17 act upstream of ER and AR by controlling the expression, at the splicing level, of several key regulators of ER and AR activities. Of particular interest, we demonstrate that Ddx5 and Ddx17 control alternative splicing of the GSK3? kinase, which impacts on both ER and AR protein stability. We also provide a freely available online resource which gives information regarding splicing variants of genes involved in the estrogen- and androgen-signaling pathways.

Project description:Background & Aims: Transcription termination fine tunes gene expression and contributes to specify the function of RNAs in eukaryotic cells. Transcription termination of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is subjected to the recognition of the canonical polyadenylation signal (cPAS) common to all viral transcripts. The regulation of the usage of this cPAS and its impact on viral gene expression and replication is currently unknown. Approach & Results: To unravel the regulation of HBV transcript termination, we used a 3’ RACE-PCR assay together with single molecule sequencing both in in vitro infected hepatocytes and in chronically infected patients. The detection of a previously unidentified transcriptional readthrough indicated that the cPAS was not systematically recognized during HBV replication in vitro and in vivo. After gene expression downregulation, followed by RNA and chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments, we showed the role of the RNA helicases DDX5 and DDX17 in promoting viral transcriptional readthrough, which was, furthermore, associated to HBV RNA destabilization. Moreover, downregulation of DDX5 and DDX17 allowed the precise termination of HBV transcripts at cPAS, which was associated with increased viral replication. Conclusions: Our findings identify DDX5 and DDX17 as crucial determinants for HBV transcriptional fidelity and as host restriction factors for HBV replication.

Project description:Efficient and effective methods for converting human induced pluripotent stem cells into differentiated derivatives are critical for performing robust, large-scale studies of development and disease modelling, and for providing a source of cells for regenerative medicine. Here, we describe a 14-day neural differentiation protocol which allows for the scalable, simultaneous differentiation of multiple iPSC lines into cortical neural stem cells We currently employ this protocol to differentiate and compare sets of engineered iPSC lines carrying loss of function alleles in developmental disorder associated genes, alongside isogenic wildtype controls. Using RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq), we can examine the changes in gene expression brought about by each disease gene knockout, to determine its impact on neural development and explore mechanisms of disease. The 10-day Neural Induction period uses the well established dual-SMAD inhibition approach combined with Wnt/β-Catenin inhibition to selectively induce formation of cortical NSCs. This is followed by a 4-day Neural Maintenance period facilitating NSC expansion and rosette formation, and NSC cryopreservation. We also describe methods for thawing and passaging the cryopreserved NSCs, which are useful in confirming their viability for further culture. Routine implementation of immunocytochemistry Quality Control confirms the presence of PAX6-positive and/or FOXG1-positive NSCs and the absence of OCT4-positive iPSCs after differentiation. RNA-Seq, flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry (ICC) and RT-qPCR provide additional confirmation of robust presence of NSC markers in the differentiated cells. The broader utility and application of our protocol is demonstrated by the successful differentiation of wildtype iPSC lines from five additional independent donors. This paper thereby describes an efficient method for the production of large numbers of high purity cortical NSCs, which are widely applicable for downstream research into developmental mechanisms, further differentiation into postmitotic cortical neurons, or other applications such as large-scale drug screening experiments.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNA) play an essential role in the regulation of gene expression and influence signaling networks responsible for several cellular processes like differentiation of pluripotent stem cells. Despite several studies on the neurogenesis process, no global analysis of microRNA expression during differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) to neuronal stem cells (NSC) has been done. Therefore, we compared the profile of microRNA expression in iPSC lines and in NSC lines derived from them, using microarray-based analysis. Two different protocols for NSC formation were used: Direct and two-step via neural rosette formation. We confirmed the new associations of previously described miRNAs in regulation of NSC differentiation from iPSC. We discovered upregulation of miR-10 family, miR-30 family and miR-9 family and downregulation of miR-302 and miR-515 family expression. Moreover, we showed that miR-10 family play a crucial role in the negative regulation of genes expression belonging to signaling pathways involved in neural differentiation: WNT signaling pathway, focal adhesion, and signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells.

Project description:The mammalian DEAD-box RNA helicase DDX5, its paralog DDX17, and their orthologs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Drosophila melanogaster, namely Dbp2 and Rm62, define a subfamily of DEAD-box proteins. Members from this subfamily share highly conserved protein sequences and cellular functions. They are involved in multiple steps of RNA metabolism including mRNA processing, microRNA processing, ribosome biogenesis, RNA decay, and regulation of long noncoding RNA activities. The DDX5/Dbp2 subfamily is also implicated in transcription regulation, cellular signaling pathways, and energy metabolism. One emerging theme underlying the diverse cellular functions is that the DDX5/Dbp2 subfamily of DEAD-box helicases act as chaperones for complexes formed by RNA molecules and proteins (RNP) in vivo. This RNP chaperone activity governs the functions of various RNA species through their lifetime. Importantly, mammalian DDX5 and DDX17 are involved in cancer progression when overexpressed through alteration of transcription and signaling pathways, meaning that they are possible targets for cancer therapy.
