Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 7 (SRSF7) promotes the type I interferon response by activating Irf7 transcription

ABSTRACT: Tight regulation of macrophage immune gene expression is required to fight infection without risking harmful inflammation. The contribution of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) to shaping the macrophage response to pathogens remains poorly understood. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that a member of the serine/arginine-rich (SR) family of mRNA processing factors, SRSF7, is required for optimal expression of a cohort of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) in macrophages. Using genetic and biochemical assays, we discovered that in addition to its canonical role in regulating alternative splicing, SRSF7 drives transcription of interferon regulatory transcription factor 7 (IRF7) to promote antiviral immunity. At the Irf7 promoter, SRSF7 maximizes STAT1 transcription factor binding and RNA polymerase II elongation via cooperation with the H4K20me1 histone methyltransferase KMT5a (SET8). These studies define an unorthodox role for an SR protein in activating transcription and reveal an unappreciated RNA binding protein-chromatin network that orchestrates macrophage antiviral gene expression.

Microtubules methylation LC-MSMS

Project description:Microtubules are critical for mitosis, cell motility, and protein and organelle transport, and are a validated target for anticancer drugs. However, tubulin regulation and recruitment in these cellular processes is less understood. Post-translational modifications of tubulin are proposed to regulate microtubule functions and dynamics. Although many such modifications have been investigated, tubulin methylations and enzymes responsible for methylation have only recently begun to be described. Here we report that N-lysine methyl transferase KMT5A (SET8/PR‑Set7), which methylates histone H4K20, also methylates α‑tubulin. Furthermore, the transcription factor LSF binds both tubulin and SET8, and enhances α-tubulin methylation in vitro, countered by FQI1, a specific small molecule inhibitor of LSF. Thus, the three SET8, LSF, and tubulin, all essential for mitotic progression, interact with each other. Overall, these results point to dual functions for both SET8 and LSF not only in chromatin regulation, but also for cytoskeletal modification.

The SHAPE-MaP experiment to identify RNA structures of pri-mir-142 variants

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that play essential roles in RNA silencing and gene regulation. The human Microprocessor (MP) is the key factor to initiate miRNA biogenesis by cleaving primary microRNAs (pri-miRNAs). However, the Microprocessor alone cannot precisely and efficiently cleave all pri-miRNAs; thus, it requires cofactors to assist its cleavage. SRSF3 interacts with CNNC in pri-miRNAs, enhancing the MP cleavage. However, it is unknown if SRSF3 can function with other non-CNNC motifs and if secondary structure might influce CNNC function. In addition, function of SRSF7, a paralog of SRSF3, in the SR proteins family, in miRNA biogenesis is largely unknown. In this study, by conducting the high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for the MP with SRSF3 or SRSF7 and randomized pri-miRNAs, we discovered that SRSF7 also stimulate MP clevage. Futhermore, we found that both SRSF3 and SRSF7 can function with some non-CNNC motifs and with CNNC motifs with certain secondary structures. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that SRSF7 and SRSF3 governed the cleavage sites of the Microprocessor in human cells. Our findings disclose the roles SRSF7 in miRNA biogenesis, demonstrate a compresenhive moleucalr mechanism of SFSF3 and SRSF7 in enhancing cleavage of MP and described in more detail the RNA-binding features of SRSF7 and SRSF3.

SRSF7 and SRSF3 affectSRSF7 and SRSF3 affect 3’UTR length in opposite directions by controlling proximal poly(A)-site usage and CFIm levels 3’UTR length in opposite directions by controlling proximal poly(A)-site usage and CFIm levels

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) refers to the regulated selection of polyadenylation sites (PASs) in transcripts, which affects the length of their 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs). APA regulates stage- and tissue-specific gene expression by affecting the stability, subcellular localization or translation rate of transcripts. We have recently shown that SRSF3 and SRSF7, two closely related SR proteins, link APA to mRNA export. However, the underlying mechanism for APA regulation by SRSF3 and SRSF7 remained unknown. Here, we combined iCLIP and 3’-end sequencing to find that both proteins bind upstream of proximal PAS (pPAS), but exert opposing effects on 3’UTR length. We show that SRSF7 enhances pPAS usage in a splicing-independent and concentration-dependent manner by recruiting the cleavage factor FIP1, thereby generating short 3’UTRs. SRSF7-specific domains that are absent in SRSF3 are necessary and sufficient for FIP1 recruitment. SRSF3 promotes long 3’UTRs by maintaining high levels of the cleavage factor Im (CFIm) via alternative splicing. Using iCLIP, we show that CFIm binds before and after the pPASs of SRSF3 targets, which masks them and inhibits polyadenylation. In the absence of SRSF3, CFIm levels are strongly reduced, which exposes the pPASs and leads to shorter 3’UTRs. Conversely, during cellular differentiation, 3’UTRs are massively extended, while the levels of SRSF7 and FIP1 strongly decline. Altogether, our data suggest that SRSF7 acts as a sequence-specific enhancer of pPASs, while SRSF3 inhibits pPAS usage by controlling CFIm levels. Our data shed light on a long-standing puzzle of how one factor (CFIm) can inhibit and enhance PAS usage.

Histone 4 Lys-20 Mono-Methylation by SET8 Mediates Wnt Target Gene Activation

Project description:Histone methylation has an important role in transcriptional regulation. However, unlike H3K4 and H3K9 methylation, the role of H4K20 mono-methylation (H4K20me-1) in transcriptional regulation remains unclear. Here we show that Wnt3a specifically stimulates H4K20 mono-methylation at TBE (TCF-binding element) via the histone methylase SET8. Additionally, SET8 is crucial for activation of the Wnt reporter gene and target genes in both mammalian cells and zebrafish. Furthermore, SET8 interacts with TCF4/LEF1 directly, and this interaction is regulated by Wnt3a. Therefore, we conclude that SET8 is a Wnt signaling mediator and is recruited by LEF1/TCF4 to regulate the transcription of Wnt-activated genes, possibly via H4K20 mono-methylation at the target gene promoters. Our findings also indicate that H4K20me-1 is a marker for gene transcription activation, at least in canonical Wnt signaling. This chip experiment was carried out to find out how many genes would be regulated by SET8 after Wnt3a CM stimulated HEK293 cells. Total RNA was extracted from HEK293 cells after siRNA transfection (control or SET8 shRNA) for about 40 hours and then induced with Control or Wnt3a CM for 7 hours using TRIzol (Invitrogen) and the RNeasy kit (Qiagen). Three pairs of samples: si-control + control CM / si-control + Wnt3a CM 7 h / si-SET8 + Wnt3a CM. Samples were amplified and labeled using a NimbleGen One-Color DNA Labeling Kit.

Identification of a FOXO3/IRF7 circuit that limits inflammatory sequelae of antiviral responses (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:We predict that a member of the forkhead family of transcription factors, FOXO3, is a negative regulator of a subset of antiviral genes. This prediction was validated using macrophages isolated from Foxo3-null mice. Genome-wide location analysis combined with gene deletion studies identified the Irf7 gene as a critical target of FOXO3. FOXO3 was identified as a negative regulator of Irf7 transcription. Our data suggest that the FOXO3-IRF7 regulatory circuit represents a novel mechanism for establishing the requisite set points in the interferon pathway. C57BL/6 mice were obtained from Jackson Laboratories. Foxo3-/- mice in the FVB background were obtained from MMRRC and were backcrossed to C57BL/6 mice at least 5 times to generate congenic mice. C57BL/6 Foxo3+/- heterozygotes were intercrossed to generate Foxo3-/- mice. Mice were maintained at the animal facility of the Institute for Systems Biology and used at 8–12 weeks of age. All animals were housed and handled according to the approved protocols of University of Washington and Institute for Systems Biology's Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees.

MACE-seq of P19 cells after knockdown of Srsf3 and Srsf7

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) refers to the regulated selection of polyadenylation sites (PASs) in transcripts, which determines the length of their 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs). APA regulates stage- and tissue-specific gene expression by affecting the stability, subcellular localization and translation rate of transcripts. We have recently shown that SRSF3 and SRSF7, two closely related SR proteins, connect APA with mRNA export. The mechanism underlying APA regulation by SRSF3 and SRSF7 remained, however, unknown. Here, we combined iCLIP, RNA-Seq and 3’-end sequencing to find that both proteins bind upstream of proximal PASs (pPASs), yet they exert opposite effects on 3’UTR length. We show that SRSF7 enhances pPAS usage in a concentration-dependent but splicing-independent manner by recruiting the cleavage factor FIP1, thereby generating short 3’UTRs. Protein domains unique to SRSF7, which are absent from SRSF3, and hypo-phosphorylation contribute to FIP1 recruitment. In contrast, SRSF3 promotes distal PAS (dPAS) usage and hence long 3’UTRs by maintaining high levels of cleavage factor Im (CFIm) via alternative splicing. Upon reduced expression of SRSF3, CFIm levels strongly decrease and 3’UTRs are globally shortened. In SRSF3-regulated transcripts, CFIm and FIP1 bind upstream of dPASs and promote their usage. Surprisingly, both factors are also recruited to pPASs under conditions where their usage is blocked, suggesting the formation of inactive cleavage complexes. Thus, we identify SRSF3 as a novel regulator of CFIm activity, provide evidence that CFIm inhibits pPAS usage and show that small differences in the domain architecture of SR proteins confer opposite effects on PAS selection.
