The identification of protein and RNA interactors of the splicing factor Caper in the adult Drosophila nervous system

ABSTRACT: Post-transcriptional gene regulation is a fundamental mechanism that helps regulate the development and healthy aging of the nervous system. Mutations that disrupt the function of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), which regulate post-transcriptional gene regulation, have increasingly been implicated in neurological disorders including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Fragile X Syndrome, and spinal muscular atrophy. Interestingly, although the majority of RBPs are expressed widely within diverse tissue types, the nervous system is often particularly sensitive to their dysfunction. It is therefore critical to elucidate how aberrant RNA regulation that results from the dysfunction of ubiquitously expressed RBPs leads to tissue specific pathologies that underlie neurological diseases. The highly conserved RBP and alternative splicing factor Caper is widely expressed throughout development and is required for the development of Drosophila sensory and motor neurons. Furthermore, caper dysfunction results in larval and adult locomotor deficits. Nonetheless, little is known about which proteins interact with Caper, and which RNAs are regulated by Caper. Here we identify proteins that interact with Caper in both neural and muscle tissue, along with neural specific Caper target RNAs. Furthermore, we show that a subset of these Caper-interacting proteins and RNAs genetically interact with caper to regulate Drosophila gravitaxis behavior.

The long non-coding RNA mimi scaffolds neuronal granules to maintain nervous system maturity

Project description:RNA-binding proteins and messenger RNAs assemble into ribonucleoprotein granules that regulate mRNA trafficking, local translation, and turnover. The dysregulation of RNA-protein condensation disturbs synaptic plasticity and neuron survival, and has been widely associated with human neurological disease. Neuronal granules are thought to condense around particular proteins that dictate the identity and composition of each granule type. Here, we show in Drosophila that a previously uncharacterized long non-coding RNA, mimi, is required to scaffold large neuronal granules in the adult nervous system. Neuronal ELAV-like proteins directly bind mimi and mediate granule assembly, while Staufen maintains condensate integrity. mimi granules contain mRNAs and proteins involved in synaptic processes; granule loss in mimi mutant flies impairs nervous system maturity, neuropeptide-mediated signaling and causes phenotypes of neurodegeneration. Our work reports the first architectural RNA for a neuronal granule and provides a handle to interrogate functions of a condensate independently from those of its constituent proteins.

Global analysis of protein-RNA interactions in SARS-CoV-2 infected cells reveals key regulators of infection

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 relies on cellular RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) to replicate and spread, although which RBPs control SARS-CoV-2 infection remains largely unknown. Here, we employ a multi-omic approach to identify systematically and comprehensively which cellular and viral RBPs are involved in SARS-CoV-2 infection. We reveal that the cellular RNA-bound proteome is remodelled upon SARS-CoV-2 infection, having widespread effects on RNA metabolic pathways, non-canonical RBPs and antiviral factors. Moreover, we apply a new method to identify the proteins that directly interact with viral RNA, uncovering dozens of cellular RBPs and six viral proteins. Amongst them, several components of the tRNA ligase complex, which we show regulate SARS-CoV-2 infection. Furthermore, we discover that available drugs targeting host RBPs that interact with SARS-CoV-2 RNA inhibit infection. Collectively, our results uncover a new universe of host-virus interactions with potential for new antiviral therapies against COVID-19.

LincRNAs involved in DCS-induced fear extinction: Shedding light on the transcriptomic dark matter

Project description:There is a growing appreciation of the role of non-coding RNAs in the regulation of gene and protein expression. Long non-coding RNAs can modulate splicing by hybridizing with precursor messenger RNAs (pre-mRNAs) and influence RNA editing, mRNA stability, translation activation and microRNA-mRNA interactions by binding to mature mRNAs. LncRNAs are highly abundant in the brain and have been implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders. Long intergenic non-coding RNAs are the largest subclass of lncRNAs and play a crucial role in gene regulation. We used RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analyses to identify lincRNAs and their predicted mRNA targets associated with fear extinction that was induced by intra-hippocampally administered D-cycloserine in an animal model investigating the core phenotypes of PTSD. We identified 43 differentially expressed fear extinction related lincRNAs and 190 differentially expressed fear extinction related mRNAs. Eight of these lincRNAs were predicted to interact with and regulate 108 of these mRNAs and seven lincRNAs were predicted to interact with 22 of their pre-mRNA transcripts. On the basis of the functions of their target RNAs, we inferred that these lincRNAs bind to nucleotides, ribonucleotides and proteins and subsequently influence nervous system development, and morphology, immune system functioning, and are associated with nervous system and mental health disorders. Quantitative trait loci that overlapped with fear extinction related lincRNAs, included serum corticosterone level, neuroinflammation, anxiety, stress and despair related responses. This is the first study to identify lincRNAs and their RNA targets with a putative role in transcriptional regulation during fear extinction.

SINEUP long non-coding RNA acts via PTBP1 and HNRNPK to promote translational initiation assembly [eCLIP-seq]

Project description:We found novel functional long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) that contain a SINE element, and which up-regulate the translation of target mRNA, named SINEUPs. To investigate the network of translational regulation, we focused on the sub-cellular distribution of target mRNAs and SINEUP RNAs and SINEUP RNA binding proteins (RBPs). We identified PTBP1 and HNRNPK as essential RBPs. These proteins contributed to SINEUP RNA sub-cellular distribution and to assembly of translational initiation complexes, leading to enhancement of the target mRNA translation. To prove the SINEUP RBPs binding regions on SINEUP-GFP transcripts, we performed seCLIP; single-end enhanced crosslinking and immunoprecipitation assay to determine the specific binding sites of PTBP1 and HNRNPK on SINEUP-GFP RNA. These findings will promote a better understanding of the mechanisms on the fate of regulatory RNAs implicated in efficient protein translation.

rec-Y2H matrix in S. cerevisiae screening reveals a vast potential for direct protein-protein interactions among RNA binding proteins

Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are crucial factors of post-transcriptional gene regulation and their modes of action are intensely investigated. At the center of attention are RNA motifs that guide where RBPs bind. However, sequence motifs recognized by RBPs are typically a poor predictor of RBP-RNA interactions in vivo. It is hence believed that many RBPs recognize RNAs as complexes, to increase specificity and regulatory potential. To probe the potential for RBP–RBP complex formation, we assembled a library of 978 mammalian RBPs and used rec-Y2H screening to detect direct interactions between RBPs, sampling >1M possible interactions. We discovered 1994 new interactions and demonstrate that our interaction screening discovers RBP pairs that bind RNAs adjacently. We further find that the mRNA binding region preferences of an RBP can deviate, depending on its adjacently binding interaction partner. Finally, we reveal novel RBP–RBP interaction networks among major RNA processing steps and show that RBP mutations observed in cancer rewire spliceosomal interaction networks.

Profiling of RNA-binding protein binding sites by in-situ reverse transcription-based sequencing

Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) regulate diverse cellular processes by dynamically interacting with RNA targets. However, effective methods to capture both stable and transient interactions between RBPs and their RNA substrates are still lacking, especially when the interaction is dynamic or materials are limited. Here we present an assay of reverse transcription-based RBP binding sites sequencing (ARTR-seq), which relies on in-situ reverse transcription of RBP-bound RNAs guided by antibodies to identify RBP binding sites. ARTR-seq avoids ultraviolet cross-linking and immunoprecipitation, allowing for efficient and specific identification of RBP binding sites from as few as 20 cells or a tissue section. Taking advantage of rapid formaldehyde fixation, ARTR-seq enables capturing the dynamic binding of RBPs over a short period of time, as demonstrated by the discovery of dynamic RNA binding of G3BP1 during stress granule assembly on a timescale as short as 10 min.
