RNA-seq analysis of the WT and bcas2-KO zebrafish embryos at 3 dpf

ABSTRACT: The splicing factor Bcas2 is involved in several biological processes including tumorigenesis, gametogenesis, and hematopoiesis. The alternative splicing events and downstream genes regulated by Bcas2 have not yet been investigated at the transcriptome level in zebrafish. In this study, we conducted RNA-sequencing analysis on the WT and bcas2 knockout zebrafish embryos (3 dpf) to identify the global differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differential splicing events (DSEs). 868 DEGs (293 up and 575 down) were identified and genes related to spliceosome, mRNA splicing, and mRNA processing were significantly upregulated, suggesting a negative feedback of the splicing pathway. Besides, 664 DSEs related to 593 genes were identified and sequence signature analysis of these DSEs revealed that the alternatively spliced exons affected by bcas2 knockout have relatively shorter length, longer upstream and downstream introns, and weaker 5’ or 3’ splicing sites, when compared with the control exons. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the exon 5 of ikzf1 gene, a transcription factor related to lymphocyte differentiation, was preferably skipped in the bcas2 knockout embryos, resulting in the deletion of 11 aa between the two conserved zinc finger domains of Ikzf1. Accordingly, several downstream genes, such as rasgrp2 and rgs2, were significantly downregulated and the lymphocyte generation was impaired in the bcas2 knockout embryos. Taken together, our work depicts the global changes of gene expression and alternative splicing caused by bcas2 knockout in zebrafish embryos and reveals an important role of Bcas2-regulated alternative splicing of ikzf1 in lymphoid hematopoiesis.

BCAS2 regulates granulosa cell survival via participating in Flt3l mRNA splicing

Project description:Granulosa cell proliferation and differentiation are essential for follicle development. Breast cancer amplified sequence 2 (BCAS2) is necessary for spermatogenesis, oocyte development, and maintaining the genome integrity of early embryos in mice. However, the function of BCAS2 in granulosa cells is still unknown. We show that conditional disruption of BCAS2 causes follicles development failure; cell proliferation markers PCNA and Ki67 positive cell ratio are unchanged in granulosa cells. However, specific deletion of BCAS2 causes BrdU positive cell ratio to decrease, cell cycle arrest appearance, DNA damage, and cell apoptosis increase in granulosa cells, RPA1 was abnormally stained in granulosa cells. Furthermore, RNA-Seq results reveal that knockout of BCAS2 results in cellular senescence gene unusual expression. BCAS2 participates in the PRP19 complex to mediate alternative splicing (AS) of E2f3 and Flt3l mRNA to inhibit the cell cycle. Knock down of BCAS2 results in a significantly decrease of BrdU positive cell ratio in Human granulosa-like tumor(KGN) cell line. Thus, BCAS2 regulates granulosa cell proliferation, DNA damage repair, and cell apoptosis. BCAS2 is vital for female fertility.

BCAS2 is involved in alternative mRNA splicing in spermatogonia and the transition to meiosis and male fertility

Project description:BCAS2 (Breast cancer amplified sequence 2) is involved in multiple biological processes, including pre-mRNA splicing. However, the physiological roles of BCAS2 are still largely unclear. Here we report that BCAS2 is specifically enriched in spermatogonia of mouse testes. Conditional disruption of Bcas2 in male germ cells impairs spermatogenesis and leads to male mouse infertility. Although the spermatogonia appear grossly normal, spermatocytes in meiosis prophase I and meiosis events (recombination and synapsis) are rarely observed in the BCAS2-depleted testis. In BCAS2 null testis, 245 genes are altered in alternative splicing forms; at least three spermatogenesis-related genes (Dazl, Ehmt2 and Hmga1) can be verified. In addition, disruption of Bcas2 results in a significant decrease of the full-length form and an increase of the short form (lacking exon 8) of DAZL protein. Altogether, our results suggest that BCAS2 regulates alternative splicing in spermatogonia and the transition to meiosis initiation, and male fertility.

Co-regulation of alternative splicing by hnRNPM and ESRP1 during EMT

Project description:The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a fundamental developmental process that is abnormally activated in cancer metastasis. Dynamic changes in alternative splicing occur during EMT. ESRP1 and hnRNPM are splicing regulators that promote an epithelial splicing program and a mesenchymal splicing program, respectively. The functional relationships between these splicing factors in the genome-scale remain elusive. Comparing alternative splicing targets of hnRNPM and ESRP1 revealed that they co-regulate a set of cassette exon events, with the majority showing discordant splicing regulation. hnRNPM discordantly regulated splicing events show a positive correlation with splicing during EMT while concordant splicing events do not, highlighting the antagonistic role of hnRNPM and ESRP1 during EMT. Motif enrichment analysis near co-regulated exons identifies guanine-uridine rich motifs downstream of hnRNPM-repressed and ESRP1-enhanced exons, supporting a model of competitive binding to these cis-elements to antagonize alternative splicing. The set of co-regulated exons are enriched in genes associated with cell-migration and cytoskeletal reorganization, which are pathways associated with EMT. Splicing levels of co-regulated exons are associated with breast cancer patient survival and correlate with gene sets involved in EMT and breast cancer subtypes. In conclusion, hnRNPM and ESRP1 co-regulate antagonistically a set of alternative splicing events that occur during EMT. This regulation is likely mediated through competition for the same intronic binding sites downstream of variable exons. hnRNPM and ESRP1 regulated splicing events are associated with breast cancer survival.

Regulation of Vertebrate Nervous System-Specific Alternative Splicing and Development by an SR-Related Protein

Project description:Alternative splicing is a key process underlying the evolution of increased proteomic and functional complexity and is especially prevalent in the mammalian nervous system. However, the factors and mechanisms governing nervous system-specific alternative splicing are not well understood. Through a genome-wide computational and expression profiling strategy, we have identified a tissue- and vertebrate-restricted Ser/Arg (SR)-repeat splicing factor, the neural-specific SR-related protein of 100 kDa (nSR100). We show that nSR100 regulates an extensive network of brain-specific alternative exons enriched in genes that function in neural cell differentiation. nSR100 acts by increasing the levels of the neural/brain-enriched polypyrimidine tract binding protein and by interacting with its target transcripts. Disruption of nSR100 prevents neural cell differentiation in cell culture and in the developing zebrafish. Our results thus reveal a critical neural-specific alternative splicing regulator, the evolution of which has contributed to increased complexity in the vertebrate nervous system.

Mouse Alt-Splice Tissue Panel (Brain vs Non-Brain)

Project description:22 Normal adult mouse tissues on custom alternative transcript sensitive Affymetrix microarray used to address differeneces in tissue specific alternative splicing. Abstract: Alternative splicing contributes to both gene regulation and protein diversity. To discover broad relationships between regulation of alternative splicing and sequence conservation, we applied a systems approach, using oligonucleotide microarrays designed to capture splicing information across the mouse genome. In a set of 22 adult tissues, we observe expression of RNA containing at least two alternative splice junctions for about a third of the 3200 alternative events we could detect. Statistical comparisons identify 171 cassette exons whose inclusion or skipping is different in brain relative to other tissues, and another 28 exons whose splicing is different in muscle. A subset of these exons is associated with unusual blocks of intron sequence whose conservation in vertebrates rivals that of protein-coding exons. By focusing on sets of exons with similar regulatory patterns, we have identified new sequence motifs implicated in brain and muscle splicing regulation. Of note is a motif strikingly similar to the branchpoint consensus, but which is located downstream of the 5' splice site of exons included in muscle. Analysis of three paralogous membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK) genes reveals that each contains a paralogous tissue regulated exon with a similar tissue inclusion pattern. While the intron sequences flanking these exons remain highly conserved among mammalian orthologs, the paralogous flanking intron sequences have diverged considerably, suggesting unusually complex evolution of the regulation of alternative splicing in multigene families.

BCAS2 and hnRNPH1 orchestrate alternative splicing for DNA double-strand break repair and synapsis in meiotic prophase I [CLIP-seq]

Project description:Understanding the intricacies of homologous recombination during meiosis is crucial for reproductive biology. However, the role of alternative splicing (AS) in DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) repair and synapsis remains elusive. In this study, we investigated the impact of conditional knockout (cKO) of the splicing factor gene Bcas2 in mouse germ cells, revealing impaired DSBs repair and synapsis, resulting in non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). Employing crosslinking immunoprecipitation and sequencing (CLIP-seq), we globally mapped BCAS2 binding sites in the testis, uncovering its predominant association with 5' splice sites (5'SS) of introns and a preference for GA-rich regions. Integrating CLIP-seq with RNA-seq, we identified BCAS2 as a key player in the AS of pre-mRNAs, including Spo11, Six6os1, Sycp1, Msh5, Cdk2, Sun2, Stag3, and Spdya, crucial for DSBs repair and synapsis. Notably, BCAS2 exhibited direct binding and regulatory influence on Trp53bp1 and Six6os1 through AS, unveiling novel insights into DSBs repair and synapsis during meiotic prophase I. Furthermore, the interaction between BCAS2, hnRNPH1, and SRSF3 was discovered to orchestrate Trp53bp1 expression via AS, underscoring its role in meiotic prophase I DSBs repair. In summary, our findings delineate the indispensable role of BCAS2-mediated post-transcriptional regulation in DSBs repair and synapsis during male meiosis. This study provides a comprehensive framework for unraveling the molecular mechanisms governing the post-transcriptional network in male meiosis, contributing to the broader understanding of reproductive biology.

RNA-sequencing analysis of ZsYellow-negative cells and ZsYellow-positive cardiopharyngeal progenitors and cardiomyocytes purified from the same 14-16 somites stage Tg(nkx2.5:ZsYellow) zebrafish embryos

Project description:The identification of novel cardiomyocyte-intrinsic factors that support ventricular function will expand the number of candidate genes and therapeutic options for heart failure, a leading cause of death worldwide. Here, we demonstrate that a conserved RNA-binding protein RBPMS2 is required for ventricular function in zebrafish and for myofibril organization and the regulation of intracellular calcium dynamics in zebrafish and human cardiomyocytes. A differential expression screen uncovered co-expression of rbpms2a and rbpms2b in zebrafish cardiomyocytes. Double knockout embryos suffer from compromised ventricular filling during the relaxation phase of the cardiac cycle, which significantly reduces cardiac output. Evaluating rbpms2-null embryos with splicing-sensitive differential expression analysis, quantitative PCR, and in situ hybridization revealed differential alternative splicing of cardiomyopathy genes including myosin binding protein C3 (mybpc3) and phospholamban (pln). Cardiomyocytes in double mutant ventricles and those derived from RBPMS2-null human induced pluripotent stem cells exhibit myofibril disarray and calcium handling abnormalities. Taken together, our data suggest that RBPMS2 performs a conserved role in regulating alternative splicing in cardiomyocytes, which is required for sarcomere organization, optimal calcium handling, and cardiac function.
