SRSF7-mediated Alternative Splicing of USO1 Promotes Hepatocellular Carcinoma by Activating the MAPK/ERK1-ELK1 Pathway

ABSTRACT: We conducted a transcriptome-wide survey to identify novel hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-associated genes that have undergone aberrant alternative splicing. We revealed that the vesicle transport factor (USO1) is a major alternatively spliced target in HCC, mainly composed of a long wild-type isoform (USO1-L) and a short truncated isoform lacking exons 5 and 15 (USO1-S). A markedly increased isoform switching from USO1-L to USO1-S occurs in approximately 80% of HCCs and predicts poor clinical outcomes. USO1-L suppresses HCC cells growth and metastasis through weakening the activation of MAPK/ERK1-ELK1 signaling by interacting with phosphorylated ERK1 and anchoring it onto the Golgi apparatus to reduce its nuclear translocation; while USO1-S confers a loss-of-function effect. The splicing factor SRSF7, which is shown to be hypomethylated and upregulated in HCC, mediates the splicing of USO1-L to produce USO1-S. Notably, the loss of USO1-L in HCC cells induces their resistance to MEK inhibitors; however, restoring USO1-L through antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASO)-mediated blockade of switching from USO1-L to USO1-S can reverse this resistance. In summary, our findings highlight the crucial role of aberrantly alternative splicing of USO1 in HCC, as well as the SRSF7-USO1-MAPK axis as a potential target for this malignancy.

RNA-seq analysis of human TNBC cells overexpressing three splicing factor genes (SRSF2-SRSF3-SRSF7) or MYC

Project description:We profiled gene expression and splicing changes in HCC1806 human TNBC cells overexpressing three splicing factor genes (SRSF2-SRSF3-SRSF7), all three splicing factors (called 3xSR) or MYC. We performed RNA-seq, in triplicate on 3xSR, MYC-OE, triple plasmid control, SRFS2, SRSF3, SRSF7, or single plasmid control HCC1806 cells.

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.

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.

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

Project description: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.

Transcriptome-wide mapping of RNA:protein interactions of SRSF7 variants in P19 cells by iCLIP and piCLIP

Project description:We used P19 cells that overexpress GFP-tagged SRSF7 by 3.4-fold and expression-matched SRSF7 mutants that either lack a functional Zinc-knuckle domain or a part of their RS-domain and compared the extent and pattern of binding to mRNAs. For this we performed iCLIP using anti-GFP antibodies. We also performed iCLIP from monosomal and polysomal fractions. In addition we performed iCLIP using anti-SRSF7 antibodies to compare the binding patterns of SRSF7-GFP, endogenous SRSF7 protein and its truncated SRSF7_RRM variant.
