Crosstalk between Regnase-1 and -3 shapes mast cell survival and cytokine expression

ABSTRACT: Dysregulation of mast cell activation can lead to allergic and anaphylactic reactions. Post-transcriptional regulation of immune-related transcripts by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is critical in controlling immune cell responses, including mast cell functionality. The Regnase family of RBPs plays a central role in regulating gene expression and controlling immune responses in both lymphoid and myeloid cells. However, what is the functional role of Regnase proteins in mast cells remains to be understood. Using different approaches of Regnase proteins depletion and deletion as well as overexpression by mRNA delivery, we found that Regnase-1 is a powerful negative regulator of mast cell proliferation, survival and ability to produce inflammatory cytokines. On the other hand, Regnase-3 was essential to modulate Regnase-1 expression in mast cells by direct targeting of the 3’-untranslated region of Regnase-1, leading to the destabilization of the Zc3h12a mRNA. Regnase-1 deletion had widespread effect on mast proliferation and survival even in the absence of stimulation and was at least in part linked to specific nuclear functions of Regnase-1 in modulating the ability of mast cells to withstand DNA damage. Overall, we describe the importance of Regnase proteins in modulating mast cell homeostatic and inflammatory responses and we describe the impact of Regnase-1 in the maintenance of genome stability.

Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are intimately involved in all aspects of RNA processing and regulation and are linked to neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Therefore, understanding the relationship between RBPs and their RNA targets is critical for a broader understanding of post-transcriptional regulation in normal and disease processes. The majority of approaches to study RNA-protein interactions focus on single RBPs, however there are many hundreds RBPs encoded in the human genome, and each cell type expresses a different catalog of these regulatory molecules, greatly limiting the ability of these single RBP approaches to capture the global landscape of RNA-protein interactions. We and others have developed approaches to globally catalog regions of mRNAs that are bound by proteins in an unbiased manner. Here we describe a detailed protocol for performing our RNase-mediated protein footprint sequencing approach, termed protein interaction profile sequencing (PIP-seq). In this protocol, RNA-protein interactions are stabilized by cross-linking, and un-bound regions are digested with RNases, leaving only the protein-bound regions intact. To control for RNase insensitive regions, proteins are first denatured and then RNP complexes are subject to RNase treatment. After high-throughput sequencing of remaining fragments, peak calling is performed to identify protein protected sites (PPSs). We describe the application of this protocol to a human embryonic kidney cell line and perform basic quality control, reproducibility and benchmarking analyses. Finally, we describe the landscape of protein-interactions in HEK293T cells, underscoring the value of this approach. Future applications of this method to study the dynamics of RNA-protein interactions in developmental processes will help to uncover the role of RBPs in post-transcriptional regulation.
