Long non-coding RNA Linc-RAM enhances myogenic differentiation by interacting with MyoD

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs are important regulators of diverse biological prosesses. Here, we report on functional identification and characterization of a novel long intergenic noncoding RNA with MyoD-regulated and skeletal muscle-restricted expression that promotes the activation of the myogenic program, and is therefore termed Linc-RAM (Linc-RNA Activator of Myogenesis). Linc-RAM is transcribed from an intergenic region of myogenic cells and its expression is upregulated during myogenesis. Notably, in vivo functional studies show that Linc-RAM knockout mice display impaired muscle regeneration due to differentiation defect of satellite cells. Mechanistically, Linc-RAM regulates expression of myogenic genes by directly binding MyoD, which in turn promotes the assembly of the MyoD-Baf60c-Brg1 complex on the regulatory elements of target genes. Collectively, our findings reveal the functional role and molecular mechanism of a lineage-specific Linc-RAM as a regulatory lncRNA required for tissues-specific chromatin remodeling and gene expression.

Transcriptome Analysis Identifies Linc-Yy1, A Novel Functional LincRNA During Myogenesis

Project description:Little is known how lincRNAs are involved in skeletal myogenesis. Here we describe the discovery of a novel lincRNA, Linc-YY1 from the promoter of transcription factor (TF) Yin Yang 1 (YY1) gene. We demonstrate that Linc-YY1 is dynamically regulated during myogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Gain or loss of function of Linc-YY1 in C2C12 myoblast cells or satellite cells alters myogenic differentiation and in injured muscles impacts the course of regeneration. Further studies suggest LincYY1 may interact with YY1 through its middle domain to evict YY1

2-hydroxyglutarate inhibits transcription factor mediated differentiation by preventing H3K9 demethylation

Project description:ATAC-seq associates impairment of myogenic differentiation in cells with an IDH2 mutation with differences in chromatin accessibility. Differences are especially apparent in regions flanking binding sites for myogenic regulatory factors and key myogenesis noncoding RNA linc-MD1. Oncogenic IDH1/2 mutations produce 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG), resulting in competitive inhibition of DNA and protein demethylation. IDH-mutant cancer cells show an inability to differentiate but whether 2HG accumulation is sufficient to perturb differentiation directed by lineage-specifying transcription factors is unknown. A MyoD-driven model was used to study the role of IDH mutations in the differentiation of mesenchymal cells. The presence of 2HG produced by oncogenic IDH2 blocks the ability of MyoD to drive differentiation into myotubes. DNA 5mC hypermethylation is dispensable while H3K9 hypermethylation is required for this differentiation block. IDH2-R172K mutation results in H3K9 hypermethylation and impaired accessibility at myogenic chromatin regions but does not result in genome-wide decrease in accessibility. The results demonstrate the ability of the oncometabolite to 2HG block transcription factor-mediated differentiation in a molecularly defined system.

Human Long Intergenic Noncoding RNA Linc-ADAL Knockdown in Mature Adipocytes using Lentiviral ShRNA

Project description:Thousands of human long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been detected in human adipose tissue. Here we characterized the function of one human adipse lincRNA, linc-ADAL (chr5:115292235-115296985) in mature adipcoytes through loss-of-function studies. Our results indicate that knockdown of linc-ADAL in differentiated adipocytes modulated expression of lipid metabolism genes.

Signal-dependent incorporation of MyoD-BAF60c into Brg1-based SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex

Project description:Tissue-specific transcription factors initiate differentiation toward a specialized cell type by inducing transcription-permissive chromatin modifications at target gene promoters, through the recruitment of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex (1, 2). The molecular mechanism that regulates the chromatin re-distribution of SWI/SNF in response to differentiation signals is currently unknown. Here we show that the muscle determination factor MyoD and the SWI/SNF structural sub-unit, BAF60c (SMARCD3), form a complex on the regulatory elements of MyoD-target genes in undifferentiated myoblasts, prior to the activation of gene expression. MyoD-BAF60c complex is devoid of the ATP-dependent enzymatic sub-units Brg1 and Brm, is required for stable MyoD binding to Ebox sequences, and marks the chromatin for signal-dependent recruitment of the SWI/SNF core complex to muscle loci. BAF60c phosphorylation on a conserved threonine by differentiation-activated p38 signalling promotes the incorporation of MyoD-BAF60c into a Brg1-based SWI/SNF complex, which is competent to remodel the chromatin and activates transcription of MyoD-target genes. Our data support an unprecedented two-step model, by which pre-assembled BAF60c-MyoD complex directs the SWI/SNF complex chromatin re-distribution to muscle loci in response to differentiation cues. Differentiation of C2C12 cells individually interfered for BRG1, BAF60B, BAF60C

linc-mipep and linc-wrb encode micropeptides that regulate chromatin accessibility in vertebrate-specific neural cells

Project description:Thousands of long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) are transcribed throughout the vertebrate genome. A subset of lincRNAs enriched in developing brains have recently been found to contain cryptic open reading frames and are speculated to encode micropeptides. However, systematic identification and functional assessment of these transcripts have been hindered by technical challenges caused by their small size. Here we show that two putative lincRNAs (linc-mipep, also called lnc-rps25, and linc-wrb) encode micropeptides with homology to the vertebrate-specific chromatin architectural protein, Hmgn1, and demonstrate that they are required for development of vertebrate-specific brain cell types. Specifically, we show that NMDA receptor-mediated pathways are dysregulated in zebrafish lacking these micropeptides and that their loss preferentially alters the gene regulatory networks that establish cerebellar cells and oligodendrocytes - evolutionarily newer cell types that develop postnatally in humans. These findings reveal a key missing link in the evolution of vertebrate brain cell development and illustrate a genetic basis for how some neural cell types are more susceptible to chromatin disruptions, with implications for neurodevelopmental disorders and disease.

mRNA cap methyltransferase, RNMT-RAM, promotes RNA pol II transcription

Project description:mRNA cap addition occurs early during RNA pol II transcription, facilitating pre-mRNA processing and translation. We report that the mammalian mRNA cap methyltransferase, RNMT-RAM, promotes RNA pol II transcription, independently of mRNA capping and translation. In cells, sub-lethal suppression of RNMT-RAM reduces RNA pol II occupancy, net mRNA synthesis and pre-mRNA levels. Conversely, expression of RNMT-RAM increases transcription independently of cap methyltransferase activity. In isolated nuclei, recombinant RNMT-RAM stimulates transcriptional output; this requires the RAM RNA-binding domain. RNMT-RAM interacts with nascent transcripts along their entire length and with transcription associated factors including RNA pol II subunits, SPT4, SPT6 and PAFc. Suppression of RNMT-RAM inhibits transcriptional markers including histone H2B K120 ubiquitination, H3 K4 and K36 methylation, RNA pol II S5 and S2 phosphorylation and PAFc recruitment. These findings suggest that multiple interactions between RNMT-RAM, RNA pol II factors and RNA along the transcription unit stimulate transcription.

Multileveled reduction of p21 expression by Linc-ASEN represses cellular senescence [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs regulating diverse cellular processes implicate in many diseases. Here, we report the identification of a novel long intergenic noncoding RNA, Linc-ASEN, expressed in prematurely senescent cells, that associates with UPF1 and represses cellular senescence by reducing p21 production transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally. The Linc-ASEN-UPF1 complex suppressed p21 transcription by recruiting Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) and PRC2 to the p21 locus, and thereby preventing binding of the transcriptional activator p53 on the p21 promoter. Moreover, the Linc-ASEN-UPF1 complex repressed p21 expression post-transcriptionally by lowering p21 mRNA stability in association with DCP1A. Accordingly, Linc-ASEN levels were found inversely correlated with p21 mRNA levels in tumor tissues from patient-derived xenograft mice, in various human cancer tissues, and in aged mice tissues. Our studies reveal that Linc-ASEN prevents cellular senescence by reducing the transcription and stability of p21 mRNA in concert with UPF1, and suggest that Linc-ASEN might be a potential therapeutic target in processes influenced by senescence, including cancer.
