CLP1 links tRNA metabolism to progressive motor-neuron loss

ABSTRACT: CLP1 was the first mammalian RNA kinase to be identified. However, determining its in vivo function has been elusive. Here we generated kinase-dead Clp1 (Clp1K/K) mice that show a progressive loss of spinal motor neurons associated with axonal degeneration in the peripheral nerves and denervation of neuromuscular junctions, resulting in impaired motor function, muscle weakness, paralysis and fatal respiratory failure. Transgenic rescue experiments show that CLP1 functions in motor neurons. Mechanistically, loss of CLP1 activity results in accumulation of a novel set of small RNA fragments, derived from aberrant processing of tyrosine pre-transfer RNA. These tRNA fragments sensitize cells to oxidative-stress-induced p53 (also known as TRP53) activation and p53-dependent cell death. Genetic inactivation of p53 rescues Clp1K/K mice from the motor neuron loss, muscle denervation and respiratory failure. Our experiments uncover a mechanistic link between tRNA processing, formation of a new RNA species and progressive loss of lower motor neurons regulated by p53.

Our experiments uncover a mechanistic link between tRNA processing, formation of a new RNA species and progressive loss of lower motor neurons regulated by p53. RNA was extracted from spinal cord of 3 Clp1 knock-out mice and 3 wild type mice (15 days old, male, all samples age and sex matched) and submitted to differential splicing analysis using Affymetrix Exon microarrays. Differential splicing analysis was performed between the Clp1 KO and WT samles employing a custom CDF, that was based on a complete re-alignment of oligonucleotide probes to the genome and transcriptome (Ensembl 52, ASTD 1.1; further information on http://bioinfo.i-med.ac.at).

The Clp1 R140H mutation alters tRNA metabolism and mRNA 3’ processing in mouse models of pontocerebellar hypoplasia

Project description:Homozygous mutation of the RNA kinase CLP1 causes pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 10 (PCH10), a pediatric neurodegenerative disease. CLP1 is associated with the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex and the cleavage and polyadenylation machinery, but its function remains unclear. We generated two mouse models of PCH10: one homozygous for the disease-associated Clp1 mutation, R140H, and one heterozygous for this mutation and a null allele. Both models exhibit loss of lower motor neurons and neurons of the deep cerebellar nuclei. To explore whether Clp1 mutation impacts tRNA splicing, we profiled the products of intron-containing tRNA genes. While mature tRNAs were expressed at normal levels in mutant mice, numerous other products of intron-containing tRNA genes were dysregulated, with pre-tRNAs, introns, and certain tRNA fragments upregulated, and other fragments downregulated. However, the spatiotemporal patterns of dysregulation did not support a role in pathogenicity for most altered tRNA products. To elucidate the effect of Clp1 mutation on pre-mRNA cleavage, we analyzed poly(A) site (PAS) usage and gene expression in Clp1R140H/- spinal cord. PAS usage was shifted from proximal to distal sites in the mutant mouse, particularly in short and closely spaced genes. Many such genes also were expressed at lower levels in the Clp1R140H/- mouse, possibly as a result of impaired transcript maturation. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that select genes are particularly dependent upon CLP1 for proper pre-mRNA cleavage, suggesting that the contribution of mRNA 3’ processing to pathogenesis in PCH10 merits further investigation.

Transcription profiling of skeletal muscle from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis sod1(G86R) axotomized mice and control mice to monitor denervation-dependent gene expression in an Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mouse model

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal adult-onset neuromuscular disorder characterized by the selective degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons, progressive muscle wasting and paralysis. To define the full set of alterations in gene expression in skeletal muscle during the course of the disease, we performed high-density oligonucleotide microarray analysis of gene expression in hind limb skeletal muscles of sod1(G86R) mice, one of the existing transgenic models of ALS. To monitor denervation-dependent gene expression, we determined the effects of short-term acute denervation on the muscle transcriptome after sciatic nerve axotomy.

Gammaherpesvirus infection alters transfer RNA splicing and triggers tRNA cleavage

Project description:Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are fundamental for both cellular and viral gene expression during viral infection. Moreover, mounting evidence supports a noncanonical role for tRNA cleavage products in the control of gene expression during diverse conditions of stress and infection. We previously reported that infection with the model murine gammaherpesvirus, MHV68, leads to altered tRNA transcription, suggesting that tRNA regulation may play an important role in mediating viral replication or the host response. To better understand how viral infection alters tRNA expression, we combined Ordered Two Template Relay (OTTR) with tRNA-specific bioinformatic software called tRAX to profile full-length tRNAs and fragmented tRNA-derived RNAs (tDRs) during infection with the model gammaherpesvirus, MHV68. We find that OTTR-tRAX is a powerful sequencing strategy for combined tRNA/tDR profiling, and reveal that MHV68 infection triggers pre-tRNA and mature tRNA cleavage, resulting in the accumulation of specific tDRs. Fragments of virally-encoded tRNAs (virtRNAs), as well as virtRNA base modification signatures are also detectable during infection. We further dissected the biogenesis pathway of an MHV68-induced cleavage product from a pre-tRNA. Our data shows that pre-tDR-Tyr expression is dependent on the tRNA splicing factor, TSEN2, and that pre-tDR-Tyr expression is inhibited by the kinase, CLP1, which regulates tRNA splicing. Significantly, our findings suggest that CLP1 kinase is required for infectious gammaherpesvirus production, offering new insight into the importance of tRNA processing during viral infection.

Intrathecal delivery of AAV-NDNF ameliorates disease progression of ALS mice

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a uniformly lethal neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive deterioration of motor neurons, neuromuscular denervation, leading to severe paralysis and breathe failure. Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated delivery of trophic factors is being considered as a potential disease-modifying therapeutic avenue. Here we show a marked effect of AAV-mediated over-expression of Neuron-derived neurotrophic factor (NDNF) on SOD1G93A ALS model mice. We performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of SOD1G93A mice injected with AAV-GFP or AAV-NDNF at postnatal days 74.
