A phase separated active subnuclear compartment safeguards repressive chromatin domains [iCLIP]

ABSTRACT: The nucleus is composed of membrane-less subnuclear compartments, containing intrinsically disordered proteins and RNAs that phase separate (PS) and contribute to specific nuclear reactions. However, whether and how different subnuclear compartments can intercommunicate remains elusive. Here we identified nuclear bodies with PS features composed of BAZ2A, a factor associating with active chromatin. BAZ2A-bodies depend on active transcription, RNAs, and the non-disordered BAZ2A RNA-binding TAM domain. Although BAZ2A and H3K27me3 occupancies anticorrelate in the linear genome, in the nuclear space BAZ2A-bodies contact H3K27me3-bodies. Disruption of BAZ2A-bodies promotes BAZ2A invasion into H3K27me3-domains, causing H3K27me3-bodies loss, H3K27me3 decrease, and gene upregulation. BAZ2A-bodies formation is negatively regulated by the nuclear-speckles associated lncRNA Malat1 that interacts with BAZ2A and mediates BAZ2A association to chromatin at nuclear speckles, which do not contact BAZ2A-bodies. The results unravel how active compartments protect repressive compartments using PS mechanisms that are promoted or impaired according to the type of RNA interactions with RNA-binding proteins.

An RNA-dependent and phase-separated active subnuclear compartment safeguards repressive chromatin domains

Project description:The nucleus is composed of functionally distinct membraneless compartments that undergo phase separation (PS). However, whether different subnuclear compartments are connected remains elusive. We identified a type of nuclear body with PS features composed of BAZ2A that associates with active chromatin. BAZ2A bodies depend on RNA transcription and BAZ2A non-disordered RNA-binding TAM domain. Although BAZ2A and H3K27me3 occupancies anticorrelate in the linear genome, in the nuclear space, BAZ2A bodies contact H3K27me3 bodies. BAZ2A-body disruption promotes BAZ2A invasion into H3K27me3 domains, causing H3K27me3-body loss and gene upregulation. Weak BAZ2A-RNA interactions, such as with nascent transcripts, promote BAZ2A bodies, whereas the strong binder long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) Malat1 impairs them while mediating BAZ2A association to chromatin at nuclear speckles. In addition to unraveling a direct connection between nuclear active and repressive compartments through PS mechanisms, the results also showed that the strength of RNA-protein interactions regulates this process, contributing to nuclear organization and the regulation of chromatin and gene expression.

BAZ2A safeguards genome architecture of ground-state pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Chromosomes have an intrinsic tendency to segregate into compartments, forming long-distance contacts between loci of similar chromatin states. How genome compartmentalization is regulated remains elusive. Here, comparison of mouse ground-state embryonic stem cells (ESCs) characterized by open and active chromatin, and advanced serum ESCs with a more closed and repressed genome, reveals distinct regulation of their genome organization due to differential dependency on BAZ2A/TIP5, a component of the chromatin remodeling complex NoRC. On ESC chromatin, BAZ2A interacts with SNF2H, DNA topoisomerase 2A (TOP2A) and cohesin. BAZ2A associates with chromatin subdomains within the active A compartment, which intersect through long-range contacts. We found that ground-state chromatin selectively requires BAZ2A to limit the invasion of active domains into repressive compartments. BAZ2A depletion increases chromatin accessibility at B compartments. Furthermore, BAZ2A regulates H3K27me3 genome occupancy in a TOP2A-dependent manner. Finally, ground-state ESCs require BAZ2A for growth, differentiation, and correct expression of developmental genes. Our results uncover the propensity of open chromatin domains to invade repressive domains, which is counteracted by chromatin remodeling to establish genome partitioning and preserve cell identity.

Effect of CLK2 expression in the regulation of intron retention during heat shock [RNA-seq]

Project description:Intron retention (IR) constitutes a less explored form of alternative splicing, wherein introns are retained within mature mRNA transcripts. Our investigation demonstrates that the CDC-like kinase 2 (CLK2) undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) within nuclear speckles in response to heat shock (HS). The formation of CLK2 condensates depends on the intrinsically disordered region (IDR) located within the N-terminal amino acids 1-148. Phosphorylation at residue T343 sustains CLK2 kinase activity and facilitates autophosphorylation, thus inhibiting the LLPS activity of the IDR. These CLK2 condensates initiate the reorganization of nuclear speckles, transforming them into larger, rounded structures. Moreover, these condensates facilitate the recruitment of splicing factors into these compartments, potentially restricting their access to mRNA for intron splicing. Consequently, the formation of CLK2 condensates promotes the IR.

SANS (USH1G) regulates pre-mRNA splicing by mediating the intra-nuclear transfer of tri-snRNP complexes

Project description:Splicing is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a compositionally dynamic complex assembled stepwise on pre-mRNA. We reveal links between splicing machinery components and the intrinsically disordered ciliopathy protein SANS. Pathogenic mutations in SANS/USH1G lead to Usher syndrome––the most common cause of deaf-blindness. Previously, SANS was shown to function only in the cytosol and primary cilia. Here, we have uncovered molecular links between SANS and pre-mRNA splicing catalyzed by the spliceosome in the nucleus. We show that SANS is found in Cajal bodies and nuclear speckles, where it interacts with components of spliceosomal subcomplexes such as SF3B1 and the large splicing cofactor SON but also with PRPFs and snRNAs related to the tri-snRNP complex. SANS is required for the transfer of tri-snRNPs between Cajal bodies and nuclear speckles for spliceosome assembly and may also participate in snRNP recycling back to Cajal bodies. SANS depletion alters the kinetics of spliceosome assembly, leading to accumulation of complex A. SANS deficiency and USH1G pathogenic mutations affects splicing of genes related to cell proliferation and USH. Thus, we provide the first evidence that splicing dysregulation may participate in the pathophysiology of Usher syndrome.

TAF2 condensation in nuclear speckles links basal transcription factor TFIID to RNA splicing [CUT&RUN]

Project description:TFIID is an essential basal transcription factor, crucial for RNA polymerase II (pol II) promoter recognition and transcription initiation. The TFIID complex consists of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and 13 TBP-associated factors (TAFs) that contain intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) with currently unknown functions. Here, we show that a conserved IDR drives TAF2 condensation in nuclear speckles, independently of other TFIID subunits. Quantitative mass spectrometry analyses reveal that the TAF2 IDR specifically interacts with the nuclear speckle and spliceosome-associated protein SRRM2. Consequently, TAF2 recruits SRRM2 to TFIID to form non-canonical TFIID-SRRM2 complexes. Reduced SRRM2 recruitment elicits alternative splicing events in RNAs coding for proteins involved in transcription and transmembrane transport. Further, genome-wide binding analyses suggest TAF2 shuttling between nuclear speckles and pol II promoters. This study identifies an IDR of the basal transcription machinery as a molecular guide for protein partitioning into nuclear compartments, controlling protein complex composition and pre-mRNA splicing.

Trnp1 is a novel regulator of several nuclear membrane-less compartments

Project description:TMF1-regulated nuclear protein 1 (Trnp1) has been shown to exert potent roles in neural development affecting neural stem cell self-renewal and brain folding, but its molecular function in the nucleus is still unknown. Here we show that Trnp1 is a low complexity protein with the capacity to phase separate. Trnp1 interacts with factors located in several nuclear membrane-less organelles, the nucleolus, nuclear speckles and condensed chromatin. Importantly, Trnp1 co-regulates the architecture and function of these nuclear compartments in vitro and in the developing brain in vivo. Deletion of a highly conserved region in the N-terminal intrinsic disordered region abolishes the capacity of Trnp1 to regulate nucleolar size and dynamics, proliferation and M-phase length, decreases the capacity to phase separate and abrogates most of Trnp1 protein interactions. Thus, we identified Trnp1 as a novel regulator of several nuclear membrane-less compartments, a function important to maintain cells in a self-renewing proliferative state.
