Identification of qkia/c target genes

ABSTRACT: Quaking are RNA binding proteins, which are known to regulate the expression of different genes at the post-transcriptional level. Genetic interference with quaking a (qkia) and quaking c (qkic) leads to major myofibril defects during zebrafish development, without affecting early muscle differentiation. In order to understand how qkia and qkic jointly regulate myofibril formation, we performed a comparative analysis of the transcriptome of qkia/qkic (qkia mutant injected with qkic morpholino) versus control embryos. We show that Quaking activity is required for accumulation of the muscle-specific tropomyosin 3 transcript, tpm3.1. Whereas interference with tmp3.1 function disrupts myofibril formation, reintroducing tpm3.1 transcripts into embryos with reduced Quaking activity can restore structured myofibrils. Thus, we identify tropomyosin as an essential component in the process of myofibril formation and as a relay downstream of the regulator proteins Quaking.

Systematic transcriptomics reveals a biphasic mode of sarcomere morphogenesis in flight muscles regulated by Spalt

Project description:Muscles organise a pseudo-crystalline array of actin, myosin and titin filaments to build force-producing sarcomeres. To study how sarcomeres are built, we performed mRNA-sequencing of developing Drosophila flight muscles and identified 40 distinct expression profile clusters. Strikingly, two clusters are strongly enriched for sarcomeric components. Temporal gene expression together with detailed morphological analysis enabled us to define two distinct phases of sarcomere development, both of which require the transcriptional regulator Spalt major. During the first sarcomere formation phase, 2.0 µm long immature sarcomeres assemble myofibrils that spontaneously contract. In the second sarcomere maturation phase, sarcomeres grow to their final 3.2 µm length and 1.5 µm diameter and acquire stretch-sensitivity. Interestingly, the final number of myofibrils per flight muscle fiber is determined at the onset of the first phase and remains constant. Together, this defines a biphasic mode of sarcomere and myofibril morphogenesis – a new concept which may also apply to vertebrate muscle or heart development.

Bruno 1 regulates cytoskeleton dynamics and a temporal splicing transition to promote myofibril assembly, growth and maturation in Drosophila flight muscle

Project description:Muscles undergo developmental transitions in gene expression and alternative splicing that are necessary to refine sarcomere structure and contractility. CUG-BP and ETR-3-like (CELF) family RNA binding proteins are important regulators of RNA processing during myogenesis that are misregulated in diseases such as myotonic dystrophy (DM1). In this work we report a function for Bruno 1 (Bru1, Arrest), a CELF1/2 family homolog in Drosophila, during early muscle myogenesis as well as during later stages of sarcomere assembly and myofiber maturation. We identify an imbalance in growth in sarcomere length and width during later stages of development as the mechanism driving abnormal radial growth, myofibril fusion and the formation of hollow myofibrils in bru1 mutant muscle. Molecularly, we characterize a genome-wide transition from immature to mature sarcomere gene isoform expression in flight muscle development that is blocked in bru1 mutants. We performed whole proteome mass spectrometry in control and bru1 mutant muscle to identify changes to the proteome, and correlated these changes to gene expression and exon use gleaned from mRNA-Seq. Our results reveal the conserved nature of CELF function in regulating cytoskeletal dynamics in muscle development, and demonstrate that defective RNA processing due to misexpression of CELF proteins causes wide-reaching structural defects and progressive malfunction of affected muscles that cannot be rescued by late-stage gene replacement.

CHD4 and the NuRD complex directly control cardiac sarcomere formation

Project description:Cardiac development relies on proper cardiomyocyte differentiation including expression and assembly of cell-type specific actomyosin subunits into a functional cardiac sarcomere. Control of this process involves not only promoting expression of cardiac sarcomere subunits but also repressing expression of non-cardiac myofibril paralogs. This level of transcriptional control requires broadly expressed multiprotein machines that modify and remodel the chromatin landscape to restrict transcription machinery access. Prominent among these is the Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase (NuRD) complex, which includes the catalytic core subunit CHD4. Here, we demonstrate that direct CHD4-mediated repression of skeletal and smooth muscle myofibril isoforms is required for normal cardiac sarcomere formation, function, and embryonic survival early in gestation. Through transcriptomic and system genome-wide analyses of CHD4 localization, we identified novel CHD4 binding sites in smooth muscle myosin heavy chain, fast skeletal α-actin, and the fast skeletal troponin complex genes. We further demonstrate that in the absence of CHD4, cardiomyocytes in the developing heart form a hybrid muscle cell that contains cardiac, skeletal and smooth muscle myofibril components. These misexpressed paralogs intercalate into the nascent cardiac sarcomere to disrupt sarcomere formation and cause impaired cardiac function in utero. These results demonstrate the genomic and physiological requirements for CHD4 in mammalian cardiac development.

Total expression profiling of embryonic regions of EHF mouse embryos

Project description:Establishment of left-right (LR) asymmetry occurs shortly after gastrulation and utilizes a cascade of events. In the mouse, LR symmetry is broken at the node, involves signal relay to the lateral plate, and results in asymmetric organ morphogenesis. How information transmits from the node to the lateral plate remains unclear. Noting that embryos lacking Sox17 exhibit defects in both gut endoderm formation and LR patterning, we investigated a connection between these two processes. We noted an endoderm-specific absence of the critical gap junction component, Connexin43, in Sox17 mutants. Dye-coupling experiments revealed planar gap junction coupling across the gut endoderm in wild-type but not mutant embryos. The role for gap junction communication in LR patterning was confirmed by pharmacological inhibition. Collectively, our data demonstrate communication across gap junctions in gut endoderm as a mechanism for information relay between node and lateral plate critical for the establishment of LR asymmetry in mice.

Directionality of developing skeletal muscles is set by mechanical forces

Project description:Formation of oriented myofibrils is a key event in the development of a functional musculoskeletal system. However, the mechanisms that control orientation of myocytes, their fusion and the resulting directionality of adult muscles remain enigmatic. Here, we utilized in vivo and in vitro live imaging, CAS9/CRISPR-mediated mutagenesis in fish, genetic experiments in mice and single cell transcriptomics to demonstrate that individual myocyte polarization and subsequent orientation depend on cell stretch imposed by skeletal expansion. Our data revealed that upon migration, individual facial myocytes form unpolarized clusters corresponding to future muscle groups. These clusters undergo oriented stretch and alignment during embryonic growth. Experimental in vivo perturbations of cartilage shape, size and distribution caused disruptions in directionality and number of myofibrils. Controlled in vitro 2D and 3D experiments applying continuous tension via artificial attachment points demonstrated a sufficiency for mechanical forces to instruct coherent polarization of myocyte populations. Consistently, perturbations of cartilage extension revealed a role of the developing skeleton in the directional outgrowth of non-muscle soft tissues during limb and facial morphogenesis.

CHCHD4-TRIAP1 regulation of innate immune signaling mediates skeletal muscle adaptation to exercise

Project description:Exercise training can stimulate the formation of fatty acid oxidizing slow-twitch skeletal muscle fibers which are inversely correlated with obesity, but the molecular mechanism underlying this transformation requires further elucidation. Here, we report that the downregulation of the mitochondrial disulfide relay carrier CHCHD4 in skeletal muscle by exercise training decreases the import of TP53-regulated inhibitor of apoptosis 1 (TRIAP1) into mitochondria, which reduces cardiolipin levels and promotes VDAC oligomerization. The subsequent release of mtDNA into the cytosol activates innate immune signaling through cGAS and NFKB, downregulating MyoD and promoting the formation of oxidative slow-twitch fibers. In mice, CHCHD4 haploinsufficiency was sufficient to activate this pathway, leading to increased oxidative muscle fibers and decreased fat accumulation with aging. The identification of a specific mediator regulating muscle fiber transformation provides an opportunity to understand further the molecular underpinnings of complex metabolic conditions such as obesity and could have therapeutic implications.

The RNA binding protein Arrest (Aret) regulates myofibril maturation in Drosophila flight muscle

Project description:In Drosophila, fibrillar flight muscles (IFMs) enable flight, while tubular muscles mediate other body movements. Here, we use RNA-sequencing and isoform-specific reporters to show that spalt major (salm) determines fibrillar muscle physiology by regulating transcription and alternative splicing of a large set of sarcomeric proteins. We identify the RNA binding protein Arrest (Aret, Bruno) as downstream of salm. Aret shuttles between cytoplasm and nuclei, and is essential for myofibril maturation and sarcomere growth of IFMs. Molecularly, Aret regulates IFM-specific transcription and splicing of various sarcomeric targets, including Stretchin and wupA (TnI), and thus maintains muscle fiber integrity. As Aret and its sarcomeric targets are evolutionarily conserved, similar principles may regulate mammalian muscle morphogenesis. 9 samples from Drosophila melanogaster were analyzed in duplicate: control dissected wildtype flight muscle at 30h APF, 72h APF and 0 day adult, jump muscle and whole leg from 1d adult and RNAi/mutant conditions for salm (1d flight muscle) and aret (30h, 72h and 1d flight muscle)
