SRSF1 regulates primordial follicle formation and number determination during meiotic prophase I


ABSTRACT: Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 1 (SRSF1; previously SF2/ASF) is a pivotal posttranscriptional regulator of gene expression in various biological processes. However, the physiological roles and mechanism of SRSF1 in mouse early-stage oocytes remain elusive. Here we show that SRSF1 is essential for primordial follicle formation and number determination during meiotic prophase I. The conditional knockout of Srsf1 in mouse oocytes impairs primordial follicle formation and leads to primary ovarian insufficiency (POI). Oocyte-specific genes (e.g., LHX8, NOBOX, SOHLH1, SOHLH2, FIGLA, KIT, JAGGED1, and RAC1) that regulate primordial follicle formation are suppressed in newborn Stra8-GFPCre Srsf1Fl/Fl (cKO) mouse ovaries. However, meiotic defects are the leading cause of abnormal primordial follicle formation. In cKO mouse ovaries, immunofluorescence results suggest that the failure of synapsis and the inability to undergo recombination result in fewer homologous DNA crossovers (COs). Moreover, SRSF1 directly binds and regulates the expression of the POI-related genes Six6os1 and Msh5 via alternative splicing to implement the meiotic prophase I program. Altogether, our data reveal a critical role of the SRSF1-mediated posttranscriptional regulatory mechanism in the mouse oocyte meiotic prophase I program, which provides a framework to elucidate molecular mechanisms of the posttranscriptional network underlying primordial follicle formation.
