Histone methyltransferase SETDB1 silenced SINE B2 retrotransposons and maintained mitotic cell cycle of neural progenitor cells (WGBS)

ABSTRACT: Short interspersed nuclear element (SINE) B2 are a type of DNA retrotransposon that organize three-dimensional genome during development. Containing binding sites for CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF), SINE_B2 serve as domain boundary elements that control chromatin state and initiate transcription of critical developmental genes. However, it is still unclear how SINE_B2 are regulated during neurodevelopment. Our findings indicate novel mechanisms that modulate critical DNA retrotransposon activity, maintain chromosome conformation and contribute to central nervous system development.

B2 SINE expression during MHV68 infecton

Project description:Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are retrotransposons evolutionarily derived from endogenous RNA Polymerase III RNAs. Though SINE elements have undergone exaptation into gene regulatory elements, how transcribed SINE RNA impacts transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation is largely unknown. This is partly due to a lack of information regarding which of the loci have transcriptional potential. Here, we present an approach (short interspersed nuclear element sequencing, SINE-seq), which selectively profiles RNA Polymerase III-derived SINE RNA, thereby identifying transcriptionally active SINE loci. Applying SINE-seq to monitor murine B2 SINE expression during a gammaherpesvirus infection revealed transcription from 28,270 SINE loci, with ~50% of active SINE elements residing within annotated RNA Polymerase II loci. Furthermore, B2 RNA can form intermolecular RNA-RNA interactions with complementary mRNAs, leading to nuclear retention of the targeted mRNA via a mechanism involving p54nrb. These findings illuminate a pathway for the selective regulation of mRNA export during stress via retrotransposon activation.

SINE RNAs trigger noncanonical NLRC4 inflammasome via DDX17

Project description:Short interspersed element (SINE) RNAs are upregulated by cellular stresses1 (heat shock, DNA damage and viral infection) and accumulate in human diseases (macular degeneration2, lupus3, and Alzheimer’s disease4). These transcripts activate inflammasomes5, a family of cytoplasmic multiprotein complexes that sense danger molecules and initiate innate immune responses by activating caspase-1-dependent cytokine production and inflammatory death6, but the molecular sensor of SINE RNAs is unknown. Here, we identify DDX17, a member of the DEAD box family of RNA helicases7, as a sensor of SINE RNAs requisite for inflammasome activation. Induction of caspase-1 cleavage and release of IL-1 and IL-18 by SINE RNAs requires dual recruitment of NLRP3 and NLRC4 but proceeds independent of NAIPs, immune sensors required for canonical NLRC4 activation by bacterial proteins8,9. Instead, SINE RNAs trigger DDX17–NLRC4 interaction, which licenses inflammasome activation. We also report increased levels of DDX17 protein and association of DDX17 and NLRC4 in the retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) of human eyes with an advanced, untreatable form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Disrupting DDX17–NLRC4 signalling blocks SINE RNA-induced inflammasome activation in human RPE cells and RPE degeneration in an animal model of AMD. Our findings uncover a non-canonical mode of inflammasome activation by endogenous retrotransposon transcripts, and provide new potential targets for macular degeneration and potentially other diseases.

RNA-seq analysis about Lx8-SINE B2 knocked down samples

Project description:We identified a novel long non-coding RNA Lx8-SINE B2, that is a marker of pluripotency. Depletion of Lx8-SINE B2 impacts embryonic stem cell self-renewal. RNA-seq analysis of Lx8-SINE B2 depletion revealed that a number of glycolytic genes with decreased expression. Mechanistically, we found that the Lx8-SINE B2 activates the glycolysis pathway by binding to Eno1. Collectively, our data suggest that Lx8-SINE B2 maintains the self-renewal of mESCs through glycolysis.

SINE transcription by RNA polymerase III is suppressed by histone methylation but not DNA methylation

Project description:Nearly half the human genome is comprised of repetitive DNA, including short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) such as Alu. SINEs spread by retrotransposition, which requires their transcripts to be copied into DNA and then inserted into new chromosomal sites. This can lead to genetic damage through insertional mutagenesis and through chromosomal rearrangements between nonallelic SINEs at distinct loci. SINE DNA is heavily methylated and this is thought to suppress its accessibility and transcription, thereby protecting against retrotransposition. However, we provide several lines of evidence that methylated SINE DNA is occupied genome-wide by RNA polymerase III, including the use of high-throughput bisulphite sequencing of ChIP DNA (ChIP-BS-Seq). Loss of DNA methylation has little effect on expression of SINEs or their accessibility to transcription machinery. We present evidence that methylation of histones rather than DNA plays a dominant role in suppressing SINE expression.

B2 and ALU retrotransposons are self-cleaving RNAs whose activity is enhanced by EZH2

Project description:More than 98% of the mammalian genome is noncoding and approximately half is made up of transposable elements. One of the most abundant is the short interspersed nuclear elements (SINE). Among the million copies of SINEs, B2 accounts for ~350,000 in the mouse genome and have garnered special interest because of emerging roles in gene regulation. Our recent work demonstrated that B2 RNA normally binds stress genes to retard transcription elongation. Though epigenetically silenced, B2s become massively upregulated during thermal stress. Specifically, an interaction between B2 RNA and the Polycomb protein, EZH2, results in cleavage of B2 RNA, release of B2 RNA from RNA Polymerase II, and activation of the stress genes. Although an established RNA-binding protein and histone methyltransferase, EZH2 is not known to be a nuclease. Here, we provide evidence for the surprising conclusion that B2 is a self-cleaving RNA. Contact with EZH2 accelerates cleavage rate by >100-fold, suggesting that EZH2 may assist cleavage as an RNA chaperone. Modification-interference analysis demonstrate that phosphorothioate changes at A and C nucleotides can substitute for EZH2’s function. B2 mutagenesis indicate that nucleotides around positions 45-55 and 100-101 are critical for cleavage reaction. Finally, we demonstrate that another family of SINEs, the ALU elements produce also a self-cleaving RNA. ALUs are intrinsically more auto-reactive than B2s. We propose that the B2/ALU SINEs are a new class of ribozymes whose activity is accelerated by EZH2.

Suv39h-dependent H3K9me3 represses intact retrotransposons in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:Heterochromatin is required to restrict aberrant expression of retrotransposons, but it remains poorly defined due to the underlying repeat-rich sequences. We dissected Suv39h-dependent histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) by genome-wide ChIP-sequencing in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Refined bioinformatic analyses of repeat subfamilies indicated selective accumulation of Suv39h-dependent H3K9me3 at interspersed repetitive elements that cover ~ 5% of the ESC epigenome. The majority of the ~ 8,150 intact long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) and endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), but only a minor fraction of the > 1.8 million degenerate and truncated LINEs/ERVs, are enriched for Suv39h-dependent H3K9me3. Transcriptional repression of these intact LINEs and ERVs is differentially regulated by Suv39h and other chromatin modifiers in ESCs but governed by DNA methylation in committed cells. These data provide a novel function for Suv39h-dependent H3K9me3 chromatin to specifically repress intact retrotransposon elements in the ESC epigenome. ChIP-seq and RNA-seq in mouse ES cells, Neural precursors and MEFs wild type and Suv39h double KO. The input for ES cells is accessioned as GSM1251941. A link to this sample can be found below.
