Conserved functional antagonism between CELF and MBNL proteins regulates stem cell-specific alternative splicing and regeneration in planarians (dataset 1)

ABSTRACT: Understanding gene regulation in stem cells is key to understanding stem cell biology.Contrary to transcriptional regulation the function of alternative splicing (AS) in stem cells is poorly understood. Here we study function and mechanisms of AS in a powerful in vivo model for stem cell biology, the planarian S. mediterranea. Knockdown of AS factors, computational analyses of massive RNA-sequencing data, phenotyping, and biochemical binding assays revealed a stem cell specific AS program comprising hundreds of alternative exons, intron retention events, and microexons. The conserved AS factors CELF/MBNL are main regulators of this program. We show that they antagonize each other by directly promoting or repressing stem cell specific AS events. Knockdown of CELF/MBNL leads to defective regeneration by affecting self-renewal and differentiation, respectively. Thus, AS is of key importance for stem cell regulation in vivo and antagonistic regulation by CELF/MBNL is likely an ancestral feature of animal stem cells.

Conserved functional antagonism between CELF and MBNL proteins regulates stem cell-specific alternative splicing and regeneration in planarians

Project description:Here, we analyze the RNA-binding preferences of the planarian smed-mbnl-like-2, smed-mbnl-1 (isoform X1), smed-bruli, smed-mbnl-1 (isoform Xins), and smed-mbnl-like-1 protein using RNAcompete. In the RNAcompete assay, a purified GST-tagged protein is incubated with an excess of RNA pool and bound RNA from individual pulldown experiments are directly labeled and hybridized to a custom Agilent 244K microarray.

MBNL splicing factors regulate the microtranscriptome of skeletal muscles (mouse, skeletal muscle, Mbnl-KO panel)

Project description:Muscleblind-like proteins (MBNLs) regulate various RNA-processing steps, including alternative splicing, polyadenylation, RNA stability, and mRNA intracellular localization. In myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common muscular dystrophy in adults, MBNLs are sequestered on toxic RNA containing expanded CUG repeats, which leads to disruption of MBNL-regulated processes and disease features of DM1. Herein, we showed the significance of MBNLs in the regulation of microtranscriptome dynamics during postnatal development of skeletal muscles and in microRNA (miRNA) misregulation observed in mouse models and patients with DM1. We identified multiple miRNAs sensitive to insufficiency of MBNL proteins and revealed that many of them were postnatally regulated, which was correlated with increases in the activity of these proteins during this process. In adult Mbnl1-knockout mice, miRNA expression exhibited an adult-to-newborn shift. We identified two mechanisms through which MBNLs influence miRNA levels. First, MBNL loss induces transcriptional changes in miRNA precursors. Second, MBNLs affect miRNA biogenesis by regulating the alternative splicing of miRNA primary transcripts. We propose that the expression of miR-23b, miR-27b and miR-24-1, produced from the same cluster, depends on the MBNL-sensitive inclusion of alternative exons containing miRNA sequences. Our findings suggest that MBNL sequestration in DM1 is partially responsible for altered miRNA activity. This study provides new insights into the biological roles and functions of MBNL proteins as regulators of miRNA expression in skeletal muscles.

Differentially expressed genes in myotubes derived from MBNL knockouts hiPSCs generated by CRISPR/Cas9.

Project description:Alternative splicing has emerged as a fundamental mechanism not only for the diversification of protein isoforms but also for the spatiotemporal control of development. Therefore, a better understanding of how this mechanism is regulated has the potential not only to elucidate fundamental biological principles, but also to decipher pathological mechanisms implicated in diseases where normal splicing networks are misregulated. Here, we took advantage of human pluripotent stem cells to decipher during human myogenesis the role of MBNL proteins, a family of tissue-specific splicing regulators whose loss of function is associated with Myotonic Dystrophy type 1, an inherited neuromuscular disease. Thanks to the CRISPR/Cas9 technology, we generated human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) depleted in MBNL proteins and evaluated the molecular and functional consequences of this loss on the generation of skeletal muscle cells. Our results indicated that MBNL proteins are specifically required for the late myogenic maturation but not for early myogenic commitment. By a transcriptomic analysis, we further demonstrated that MBNL proteins are not only important for the regulation of alternative splicing but also for the regulation of gene expression. Together, our study reveals the temporal requirement of MBNL proteins in human myogenesis and should facilitate the identification of new therapeutic strategies capable to cope the loss of function of these MBNL proteins.
