Project description:Circadian rhythms have been implicated in regulating skeletal muscle structure and function, but no mechanisms have connected the molecular clock to sarcomeric proteins. We identified an isoform shift in the sarcomeric ruler, titin, and showed that the skeletal muscle molecular clock regulates titin isoform and subsequently sarcomere length through RBM20, an RNA binding protein that controls titin splicing.

Project description:Titin is a striated muscle-specific giant elastic protein and largely responsible for the generation of the diastolic force in the cardiac myocyte. Cardiac titin undergoes developmental changes in isoform expression during the course of cardiac development. At present, at least five size classes of titin isoforms (N2B and N2BA-A1, A2, N1, N2) have been identified using SDS agarose gel electrophoresis. The larger titin isoform N2BAs gradually decreased with ages, in contrast, the smaller titin isoform N2B increased in normal cardiomyocyte, and cardiac myocytes containing a higher proportion of the smaller titin isoform N2B have stronger passive tension than that with a lower proportion of the larger titin isoform N2BAs. Recently we found an autosomal dominant mutation which caused totally opposite cardiac titin isoform expression as compared to developmental stages. The larger total titin isoform N2BA increased in mutant rat cardiac myocytes with ages instead of the smaller cardiac titin isoform N2B. For the moment, mechanism of titin isoform switch is still unknown, therefore, the mutant rats will give us nevol sight to elucidate the titin splicing mechanism.

Project description:We report the heart RNA-sequencing of control animals (129S6 genetic background, wild type). Animal models comprise of Titin PEVK homozygous deletion of exons 219-225 (PEVK-KO), RBM20 heterozygous deletion of exons 6-7 (RBM20-HET), and double deletion (PEVK-KOxRBM20-HET). RNA from left ventricular tissue was isolated using TRIzol followed by a clean-up with the QIAGEN RNA micro kit, cDNA libraries were generated using the Illumina TruSeq Stranded mRNA Sample Prep Kit 2x101 paired-end sequenced on HiSeq2000 (WT, RBM20-HET) or HiSeq4000 (PEVK-KOxRBM20-HET). Trimming and quality clipping was performed with Flexbar v. 3.03. The remaining reads greater than 18bp were mapped to the murine genome (assembly EnsEMBL 84) with the splice-aware STAR aligner v. 2.5.1b. Transcriptome analyses on differential gene and isoform abundance were carried out with cuffdiff 20 v. 2.2.1.

Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol according to manufacturer instruction and further purified by the RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). Double stranded cDNA was synthesized from total RNA (SuperScript II system; Invitrogen). An in vitro transcription reaction was then performed to obtain biotin-labeled cRNA from the double-stranded cDNA (Enzo BioArray High Yield RNA Transcript Labeling kit; Enzo Diagnostics, Farmingdale, NY). The cRNA was fragmented before hybridization, and then mixed in a hybridization mixture containing probe array controls, BSA, and herring sperm DNA. A cleanup procedure was performed on the hybridization cocktail using an RNeasy spin column (Qiagen), after which it was applied to the Affymetrix Rat 230 2.0 probe array. Total eighteen hybridization experiments were performed in which each stage (1-day, 20-day and 49-day) was represented by three normal and three mutant individual ventricular RNA extracts. Hybridization was allowed to continue for 16 h at 45°C in a GeneChip 640 hybridization oven, after which the arrays were washed and stained with phycoerythrin-conjugated streptavidin (Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR). Images were scanned using a GeneArray scanner (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA) and GeneChip cel files were subsequently processed by the log scale robust multi-array analysis (RMA). The log scale robust multi-array analysis (RMA) estimates are based upon a robust average of log2 (B (PM)), where B (PM) are background corrected perfect match intensities. three replicates were available for these conditions: three wild types and three homozygotes for 1-day, three wild types and three homozygotes for 20-day, and three wild types and three homozygotes for 49-day.

Project description:We report the heart RNA-sequencing of control animals and animals of a mouse model of heart failure treated or not with RBM20 antisense oligonucleotide. This study aims to investigate the therapeutic effect of antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-mediated downregulation of the cardiac splice factor RBM20 in a mouse model of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. 8-week old wild type and titin N2B KO mice with increased wall stiffness were subcutaneously injected with 50 mg/kg/week RBM20 ASO for 8 weeks. RNA from 4 left ventricles per group were isolated using TRIzol followed by a clean-up with the QIAGEN RNA micro kit. The cDNA libraries were generated using the Illumina TruSeq Stranded mRNA LT Sample Prep Kit and 2x150 paired end sequenced on HiSeq4000. The RNA-Sequencing analysis confirms that RBM20 ASO treatment increased the expression of compliant titin isoforms and improved impaired ventricular filling and cardiac function. RNA-seq confirmed RBM20 dependent isoform changes of known targets such as Titin, Ldb3, Camk2d, and Ank3, and served as a sensitive indicator of potential side effects, largely limited to genes related to the immune response.

Project description:Mutations in the sarcomeric protein titin are a major cause of human dilated cardiomyopathy. We have developed a knock-in mouse model that imitated a previously identified titin truncation mutation. The heterotygous Ttn-deficient mice develop features of DCM and therefore recapitulate the human phenotype. To investigate the role of microRNAs in titin-based heart failure, we performed a miRNA screen in heterozygous Ttn-deficient mice and their wildtype littermate controls.

Project description:Purpose: Ribosome profiling and RNA-Seq were used to map the location and abundance of translating ribosomes on mouse heart and skeletal muscle transcripts. Methods: Tissue was rapidly harvested and snap-frozen to minimize bias to the pool of translating ribosomes. RNA was prepared from a single homogenate for each tissue so that starting RNA populations for both libraries were closely matched. Homogenates were not clarified before RNase digestion to avoid loss of ribosomes associated with large molecular weight complexes, and RNA-Seq libraries were prepared after rRNA subtraction to avoid positional loss of 5’ reads. Trimmed reads from 50 cycles of Illumina single-end sequencing were mapped onto a non-redundant set of 18,499 mouse protein-coding RefSeq transcripts from the nuclear genome. Results: Mapped sequence reads to myosin, actin and the giant protein titin together account for ~20% of the total mRNA-derived ribosome protected fragments (RPFs). We observed large-scale uniformity in the distribution of RPFs on the >30,000 codon titin open reading frame, from which we inferred an in vivo ribosome elongation error rate of ≤10-5. Ribosome footprints on Ttn mRNA also uncovered a novel 5’ UTR within a phylogenetically conserved intronic element that would produce ~2.35 mDa titin isoform that corresponds to the titin 'T2' band frequently described as a proteolytic artifact. Local translation efficiency across several >10 kb muscle mRNAs was also uniform, while their global translation efficiencies varied by ~20-fold suggesting initiation rate plays a major role in the translation efficiency of large mRNAs. Evidence for RPFs on 5’ UTRs was widespread with particular enrichment for ribosomes positioned at CUG codons. Comparison of global translation efficiency in cardiac and skeletal muscle revealed novel examples of tissue-specific translational control including synthesis of the myogenic factor Mef2c, and the titin-binding stress response protein Ankrd23. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of translation in an adult mammalian tissue generated by ribosome profiling technology. Current limitations to using ribosomal profiling in tissues include unknown perturbations to the dynamic state of translation despite rapidly harvested and snap-frozen samples. The uniform 5’ to 3’ coverage observed on individual large mRNAs and the ability to observe footprints on the extremely small phospholamban coding sequence, suggests that initiation and elongation were halted on similar time scales. More detailed examination of the positional information within CDS region requires further understanding of the bias introduced during the library preparation steps for both RPF-and RNA-Seq, as well as local biases induced as translation is arrested. Despite these qualifications, this initial view of active translation in muscle tissue highlights the potential for ribosome profiling to monitor the dynamic translation response to exercise, injury or disease pathology in animal models at a level of resolution not easily attainable with other quantitative approaches. Heart and skeletal muscle ribosome-protected fragment and RNA-Seq profiles of 10-week old C57BL/6J male mice were generated by deep sequencing using the Illumina HiSeq 2000.

Project description:The sarcomere is the muscle contractile unit, whose assembly and disassembly are intimately linked to changes in myofiber size and function. Mutations in sarcomeric proteins are common causes of myopathies, ranging from severe neonatal to adult-onset forms. Here, we identify HECTD1 as an E3 ubiquitin ligase necessary for sarcomere maintenance. We show that silencingHectd1 in myotubesreduces the levels of proteins critical for sarcomere integrity including a-actin, titin, troponins, tropomyosins, and several myosin heavy chain isoforms. We further establish that Hectd1 ubiquitylates and stabilizes the molecular chaperones KLHL40/41, that when dysfunctional destabilize nebulin and other sarcomere thin filament proteins (causing nemaline myopathy). Consequently, skeletal muscle-specific Hectd1 knockout mice (Hectd1 mKO) show progressive muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, and unresolved tissue remodeling. Molecular and histological analysis of Hectd1 mKO muscle revealed subsarcolemmal storage of the scaffold protein desmin, mitochondrial abnormalities, and severe sarcomere disorganization. This work uncovers Hectd1 as an E3 ligase critical for sarcomere assembly, and a novel diagnostic gene for myopathy with features of nemaline and desmin myopathy.

Project description:The zebrafish runzel (ruz) carries a mutation in the titin gene resulting in muscle degeneration and embryonic lethality. At the onset of the visible phenotype (3-3.5 days post fertilization), RNA expression of the tail and trunk (primarily skeletal muscle) was compared between ruz mutants and wildtype siblings using the Affymetrix Zebrafish Gene Chip. Mutant RNA was matched with RNA of wildtype siblings from the same clutch. 3 separate clutches were used (n=3). RNA was labeled, sheered, and hybridized as in Shephard et al. (Shepard et al., 2005) and the data analyzed as in Choe et al. and Weber et al. (Choe et al., 2005; Weber et al., 2005). Results suggest a novel mechanism of titin muscular dystrophy pathogenesis including upregulation of heat shock proteins. Experiment Overall Design: At the onset of the visible phenotype (3-3.5 days post fertilization), RNA expression of the tail and trunk (primarily skeletal muscle) was compared between ruz mutants and wildtype siblings using the Affymetrix Zebrafish Gene Chip. RNA of mutants was matched with RNA of wildtype siblings from the same clutch. 3 separate clutches were used (6 arrays total).
