Cotranscriptional exon skipping in the genotoxic stress response

ABSTRACT: Pre-mRNA splicing is functionally coupled to transcription, and genotoxic stresses can enhance alternative exon inclusion by affecting elongating RNA polymerase II. We report here that various genotoxic stress inducers, including camptothecin, inhibit the interaction between EWS, an RNA polymerase II-associated factor, and YB-1, a spliceosome-associated factor. This results in the cotranscriptional skipping of several exons of the MDM2 gene encoding the main p53 ubiquitin-ligase. This reversible exon skipping participates in the timely regulation of MDM2 expression, and may contribute to the accumulation of p53 during stress exposure and its rapid shut off when stress is removed. Finally, a splicing-sensitive microarray identified numerous exons that are skipped in response to camptothecin and EWS/YB-1 depletion. These data demonstrate genotoxic stress-induced alteration of the communication between the transcriptional and splicing machineries, resulting in widespread exon skipping and playing a central role in the genotoxic stress response.

SPLICER: A Highly Efficient Base Editing Toolbox That Enables in vivo Exon Skipping For Targeting Alzheimer’s Disease [RNA-seq]

Project description:Exon skipping technologies enable exclusion of targeted exons from mature mRNA transcripts, which has broad applications in molecular and cellular biology, medicine and biotechnology. Existing exon skipping techniques include antisense oligonucleotides, targetable nucleases and base editors, which, while effective for specific applications at some target exons, remain hindered by shortcomings preventing their broader implementation including transient effects in the case of oligonucleotides or limiting PAM motifs, sequence context preferences for deaminases, and undesirable cryptic splicing in the case of gene editing tools. To overcome these limitations, we created SPLICER, a toolbox of next-generation base editors consisting of near-PAMless Cas9 nickase variants fused with different deaminases for simultaneous editing of splice acceptor (SA) and splice donor (SD) sequences. Synchronized SA and SD editing not only improves exon skipping rates but also reduces aberrant outcomes such as cryptic splicing and intron retention. SPLICER enables editing of exon splice sites with high efficiency, including many exons refractory to splicing reprogramming by the native SpCas9 BEs. To demonstrate the therapeutic potential of SPLICER, we targeted APP exon 17, which contains the amino acid residues responsible for the formation of Aβ plaques in Alzheimer’s disease. SPLICER enabled precise and highly efficient exon skipping, which reduced the formation of Aβ42 peptides in vitro while inducing DNA editing and exon skipping in vivo within a humanized mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease. Overall, SPLICER is a widely applicable and highly efficient toolbox for exon skipping with broad therapeutic applications.

An Alternative Splicing Event Amplifies Evolutionary Differences Between Vertebrates

Project description:Alternative splicing (AS) generates extensive transcriptomic and proteomic complexity. However, the functions of species- and lineage-specific splice variants are largely unknown. Here, we show that mammalian-specific skipping of exon 9 of PTBP1 alters its splicing regulatory activities and affects the inclusion levels of numerous exons. During neurogenesis, skipping of exon 9 reduces PTBP1 repressive activity so as to facilitate activation of a brain-specific AS program. Engineered skipping of the orthologous exon in chicken cells induces a large number of mammalian-like AS changes in PTBP1 target exons. These results thus reveal that a single exon skipping event in an RNA binding regulator directs numerous AS changes between species. The results further suggest that these changes contributed to evolutionary differences in the formation of vertebrate nervous systems. This study contains two sets of samples: (Set 1) mRNA profiling of human 293 cells subjected to four different conditions in two biological replicates: non-targetting control siRNA, PTBP1 and PTBP2 siRNA, PTBP1 and PTBP2 siRNA with overexpression of full-length human PTBP1, PTBP1 and PTBP2 siRNA with overexpression of exon-excluded human PTBP1. (Set 2) mRNA profiling of chicken DT40 cells with 3 genotypes in two bioligcal replicates: wildtype cells, cells with PTBP1 exon 8 (orthologous to human PTBP1 exon 9) deleted in one allele, and cells with PTBP1 exon 8 deleted in both alleles.

Gene architecture directs splicing outcome in separate nuclear spatial regions

Project description:How the splicing machinery defines exons or introns as the spliced unit has remained a puzzle for 30 years. Here we demonstrate that peripheral and central regions of the nucleus harbor genes with two distinct exon-intron GC content architectures that differ in the splicing outcome. Genes with low GC content exons, flanked by long introns with lower GC content, are localized in the periphery, and the exons are defined as the spliced unit. Alternative splicing of these genes results in exon skipping. In contrast, the nuclear center contains genes with a high GC content in the exons and short flanking introns. Most splicing of these genes occurs via intron definition, and aberrant splicing leads to intron retention. We demonstrate that the nuclear periphery and center generate different environments for the regulation of alternative splicing, and that two sets of splicing factors form discrete regulatory subnetworks for the two gene architectures. Our study connects 3D genome organization and splicing, thus demonstrating that exon and intron definition modes of splicing occur in different nuclear regions.

Intragenic DNA methylation modulates alternative splicing by recruiting MeCP2 to promote exon recognition [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Although the function of DNA methylation in gene promoter regions is well established in transcriptional repression, the function of the evolutionarily conserved widespread distribution of DNA methylation in gene body regions remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that DNA methylation is enriched in included alternatively spliced exons (ASEs) and inhibiting DNA methylation results in aberrant splicing of ASEs. The methyl-CpG binding protein MeCP2 is enriched in included ASEs, particularly those that are also highly DNA methylated, and inhibition of DNA methylation disrupts specific targeting of MeCP2 to exons. Interestingly, ablation of MeCP2 results in increased nucleosome acetylation and aberrant skipping events of ASEs. We further show that inhibition of histone deacetylases leads to a highly significant overlap of exon skipping events caused by knocking-down MeCP2. Together, our data indicate that intragenic DNA methylation operates in exon definition to modulate alternative splicing and can enhance exon recognition via recruitment of the multifunctional protein MeCP2, which thereby maintains local histone hypoacetylation through its established interaction with HDACs.
