Effect of MCM8 deficiency on gene expression of mouse embryo fibroblasts

ABSTRACT: MCM8 is essential in the replication stress response to maintain genome stability during mitosis. The deficiency of MCM8 results in impaired proliferation and a prolonged cell cycle, which can decrease cell populations. To investigate the effect of MCM8 deficiency on gene expression, we conducted the RNA-seq in wildtype and Mcm8 knockout mouse embryo fibroblasts. We found that the majority of genes were co-expressed and the gene expression distribution was comparable between WT and KO MEFs, suggesting that the global transcription activity was not obviously affected after MCM8 deficiency. Analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) showed they were enriched in pathways including stem cell differentiation and cell fate commitment. In addition, to determine whether MCM8 is potentially involved in regulating splicing, as strongly suggested by the MCM8 interactome, we also performed alternative splicing (AS) analysis on RNA-seq data. Our data suggested that MCM8 may not function in splicing.

CUT&TAG analysis of R-loops in Mcm8 knockout MEFs and CUT&TAG analysis of R-loops and MCM8-binding sites in HEK293 cells

Project description:To reveal the role of MCM8 in suppressing R-loop accumulation, we performed the CUT&TAG assay using the S9.6 antibody to map genome-wide R-loops in Mcm8 wildtype MEFs and Mcm8 knockout MEFs. We also conducted the CUT&TAG assay to detect genome-wide R-loops in Ddx5 downregulated MEFs by adenovirus infection and in control MEFs. To investigate the underlying molecular mechanism of MCM8 suppressing R-loops, we conducted the DNA sequencing of libraries from CUT&TAG assay using the antibody against FLAG in HEK293 cells transfected with FLAG-MCM8 plasmid and using the S9.6 antibody in HEK293 cells. Besides, an IgG control and control of RNH1 overexpression were included.

MCM8 interacts with DDX5 to promote R-loop resolution in primordial germ cells

Project description:MCM8 has emerged as a core gene in reproductive aging and is crucial for meiotic homologous recombination repair. It also safeguards genome stability by coordinating the replication stress response during mitosis, but its function in mitotic germ cells remains elusive. Here we found that the number of primordial germ cells (PGCs) decreased dramatically after MCM8 deficiency due to proliferation defects. We further demonstrated that MCM8 interacted with two known helicases DDX5 and DHX9 in PGCs, and loss of MCM8 led to R-loop accumulation by reducing the retention of these helicases at R-loops, thus inducing genome instability. Cells expressing premature ovarian insufficiency-causative mutants of MCM8 with decreased interaction with DDX5 displayed increased R-loop levels. These results suggest that MCM8 interacts with R-loop-resolving factors to prevent DNA damage in PGCs, thus maintaining PGC proliferation and establishing the reproductive reserve. Our findings thus reveal a novel role for MCM8 in PGC development and improve our understanding of reproductive aging caused by genome instability in mitotic germ cells.

Human colon cancer HCT116 cell LC/MSMS

Project description:Mitosis deregulation is a key event during carcinogenesis. Alternative splicing spectrum alteration plays a critical role during mitosis shift. However, the molecules responsible for dysregulated alternative splicing driving carcinogenetic mitosis remain poorly defined. Here, we demonstrate that cancer metastasis-associated antigen 1 (MTA1), a well-known oncogenic chromatin modifier, broadly interacts and co-expresses with RBPs across cancers, contributes to cancerous mitosis-related alternative splicing. Using developed fCLIP-seq technology, we show that MTA1 binds abundant transcripts, preferentially at splicing-responsible motifs, influencing both the abundance and alternative splicing (AS) of target transcripts. MTA1 is cytoplasmic and extrachromosomal at mitosis. Through the RNA-association activity, MTA1 regulates the mRNA level and guides the AS of a serious of mitosis regulators to control the mitosis. MTA1 deletion abrogated the dynamic AS switches of variants for ATRX and MYBL2 at mitotic stage, which are relevant to mitosis and tumorigenesis. MTA1 dysfunction causes a defective mitotic arrest, leading to aberrant chromosome segregation, and resultantly chromosomal instability (CIN) in cancer cells and tissues, which eventually contributes to tumorigenesis. Currently, little is known about the RNA splicing during mitosis, here, we present MTA1 as a pivotal RNA-binding protein, functioning to orchestrate the dynamic splicing of mitosis regulators linked to mitosis control in tumorigenesis.

MCM8 mediated mitophagy protects vascular health in response to nitric oxide signaling in a mouse model of Kawasaki disease

Project description:Mitophagy is a major quality control pathway that removes unwanted or dysfunctional mitochondria, and plays an essential role in vascular health. Here we show that MCM8 expression is significantly decreased in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) who developed coronary artery aneurysms. Mechanistically, we discover that nitric oxide (NO) signaling promotes TRIM21 mediated MCM8 ubiquitination, which disrupts its interaction with MCM9 and promotes its cytosolic export. In the cytosol, MCM8 relocates to the mitochondria pore forming proteins and promotes their ubiquitination by TRIM21. In addition, MCM8 directly recruits LC3 via its LIR motif and initiates mitophagy. This suppresses mitochondrial DNA-mediated activation of type I interferon via cGAS and STING. Mice that are deficient in Mcm8, Trim21, Nos2, or reconstituted with the East-Asian specific MCM8-P276 variant develop more severe coronary artery vasculopathy in the Lactobacillus casei extract-induced KD model. Collectively, the data suggest that MCM8 protects vascular health in the KD setting.

The splicing factor Prpf31 is required for hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell expansion during zebrafish embryogenesis

Project description:Pre-mRNA splicing is a precise regulated process, and is crucial for system development and homeostasis maintenance. Mutations in spliceosomal components have been found in various hematopoietic malignancies (HMs), and have been considered as oncogenic derivers of HMs. However, the role of spliceosomal components in normal and malignant hematopoiesis remain largely unknown. Pre-mRNA processing factor 31 (PRPF31) is a constitutive spliceosomal component, which mutations are associated with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. PRPF31 was found to be mutated in several HMs, but the function of PRPF31 in normal hematopoiesis has not been explored. In this study, we generated a prpf31 knockout zebrafish line, and discovered that prpf31 mutants exhibited severe defects in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) expansion and its sequentially differentiated lineages. Immunofluorescence results showed that Prpf31 deficient HSPCs underwent malformed mitosis and M phase arrest during HSPC expansion. Transcriptome analysis and experimental validations revealed that Prpf31 deficiency extensively perturbed the alternative splicing of mitosis-related genes. Collectively, our findings elucidate a previously undescribed role for Prpf31 in HSPC expansion, through regulating the alternative splicing of mitosis-related genes.

Expression analysis of mouse embryo fibrobalsts lacking Tgif1

Project description:Tgif1 is a transcriptional corepressor that limits TGFβ responsive gene expression. TGFβ signaling has antiproliferative effects in several cell types, generally resulting in a G1 arrest. Mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) are primary cells with limited life-span, that senesce after several passages in culture. We compared expression profiles of primary MEFs lacking Tgif1 with wild types at passage three, and with wild type MEFs at passage 5, to identify changes in gene expression due to loss of Tgif1 and due to increasing passage number.

T cell Activation is Regulated by Assembly of an RNA-binding Interactome Centered on the U2AF Heterodimer that Includes ILF2, SRRM2, and SYNCRIP [RNA-seq]

Project description:T cell activation leads to dramatic changes in cellular phenotype. We used CD3/CD28-activated human CD4 T cells to study how RNA binding proteins define the post-transcriptional landscape. Using RIPseq, we identified the RNA interactome of U2AF2 and show at the global level that U2AF2 binds the majority of transcripts that are differentially expressed and/or alternatively spliced during CD4 T cell activation. A unique protein interactome centered on U2AF2 is assembled in response to activation. Knocking down specific U2AF2 interacting partners (U2AF1, SYNCRIP, SRRM2, ILF2) selectively affects cytokine secretion and expression of activation markers. Furthermore, the expression and/or alternative splicing of transcripts important for immune cell function are also affected by knocking down these U2AF2 interacting proteins. U2AF1 and SYNCRIP knockdowns affect the proteins and transcripts bound to U2AF2, altering the transcriptome. Our work highlights the importance of RNA binding protein complexes in regulating the differential expression and alternative splicing that defines T cell activation.
