Integrator complex subunit 12 is a key regulator of human protein synthesis pathways

ABSTRACT: Genome wide association studies of human lung function have identified a signal on 4q24 but the mechanistic basis for this signal is unclear. This region contains the Integrator Complex subunit 12 gene (INTS12) and nearby polymorphisms associated with lung function correlate with INTS12 expression. We aimed to define INTS12 function in human bronchial epithelial cells. RNAseq pathway analyses of INTS12 depleted cells revealed robust downregulation of several protein synthesis related pathways, including the aminoacyl tRNA synthetases and PERK regulated gene expression. Indeed, INTS12 knockdown using mRNA silencing repressed cellular translation and proliferation. ChIPseq gene-centric analyses revealed INTS12 binding to be near transcriptional start sites. The binding was found to be enriched for differentially expressed loci identifying the genes it regulates, a finding previously unknown for this particular member of Integrator complex. These findings contribute to the biology behind genetic association

Integrator complex subunit 12 knockout overcomes a transcriptional block to HIV latency reversal [CRISPR]

Project description:The latent HIV reservoir is a major barrier to HIV cure. Combining latency reversal agents (LRAs) with differing mechanisms of action such as AZD5582, a non-canonical NF-kB activator, and I-BET151, a bromodomain inhibitor is appealing towards inducing HIV-1 reactivation. However, even this LRA combination needs improvement as it is inefficient at activating proviruses in cells from people living with HIV (PLWH). We performed a CRISPR screen in conjunction with AZD5582 & I-BET151 and identified a member of the Integrator complex as a target to improve this LRA combination, specifically Integrator complex subunit 12 (INTS12). Integrator functions as a genome-wide attenuator of transcription that acts on elongation through its RNA cleavage and phosphatase modules. Knockout of INTS12 improved latency reactivation at the transcriptional level and is more specific to the HIV-1 provirus than AZD5582 & I-BET151 treatment alone. We found that INTS12 is present on chromatin at the promoter of HIV and therefore its effect on HIV may be direct. Additionally, we observed more RNAPII in the gene body of HIV only with the combination of INTS12 knockout with AZD5582 & I-BET151, indicating that INTS12 induces a transcriptional elongation block to viral reactivation. Moreover, knockout of INTS12 increased HIV-1 reactivation in CD4 T cells from virally suppressed PLWH ex vivo. We also detected viral RNA in the supernatant from CD4 T cells of all three virally suppressed PLWH tested upon INTS12 knockout suggesting that INTS12 prevents full-length HIV RNA production in primary T cells.

Integrator Recruits Protein Phosphatase 2A to Prevent Pause Release and Enable Transcription Termination

Project description:Efficient release of promoter-proximally paused Pol II into productive elongation is essential for gene expression. Recently, we reported that the Integrator complex can bind paused Pol II and drive premature transcription termination, potently attenuating the activity of target genes. Premature termination requires RNA cleavage by the endonuclease subunit of Integrator, but the roles of other Integrator subunits in gene regulation have yet to be elucidated. Here, we report that Integrator subunit 8 (IntS8) is critical for transcription repression through its association with Protein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A). We find that Integrator-bound PP2A dephosphorylates the Pol II C-terminal domain and Spt5, and prevents the transition to productive elongation. Blocking PP2A association with Integrator thus stimulates pause release and gene activation. These results reveal a second catalytic function associated with Integrator-mediated transcription termination, and suggest a new model for the control of productive elongation involving active competition between transcriptional kinases and phosphatases.

Effects of cadmium and integrator complex knockdown on gene expression and mRNA splicing

Project description:RNA undergoes numerous processing steps required for gene expression. Little is known about RNA homeostasis during environmental stress in metazoan cells. By studying regulation of a heavy metal-induced gene named numr-1 in C. elegans, we discovered that disruption of RNA processing acts as a signal for environmental stress. We find that NUMR-1 contains motifs common to RNA splicing factors and regulates RNA splicing in vivo. A genome-wide screen reveals that numr-1 is strongly and specifically induced by silencing of genes that function in basal RNA metabolism including subunits of the metazoan integrator complex. Human integrator processes snRNAs for functioning with splicing factors, and we find that silencing of C. elegans integrator subunits disrupts snRNA processing and causes aberrant pre-mRNA splicing. Cadmium, which also strongly induces numr-1, has the same effects on snRNA processing and pre-mRNA splicing. Lastly, we find that heat shock factor-1 is required for numr-1 induction by cadmium. Our results are consistent with a model in which disruption of integrator processing of RNA acts as a molecular damage signal initiating an adaptive stress response mediated by heat shock factor-1.

The Integrator complex controls the termination of transcription at diverse classes of gene targets

Project description:Complexes containing INTS3 and either NABP1 or NABP2 were initially characterized in DNA damage responses, but their biochemical function remained unknown. Using affinity purifications and HIV Integration Targeting-Sequencing (HIT-Seq), we find that these complexes are part of the Integrator complex, which binds RNA Polymerase II and regulates specific target genes. Integrator cleaves snRNAs as part of their processing to their mature form in a mechanism that is intimately coupled with transcription termination. However, HIT-Seq reveals that Integrator also binds to the 3’ end of replication-dependent histones and promoter proximal regions of genes with polyadenylated transcripts. Depletion of Integrator subunits results in transcription termination failure, disrupting histone mRNA processing, and leading to polyadenylation of snRNAs and histone mRNAs. Furthermore, promoter proximal binding of Integrator negatively regulates expression of genes whose transcripts are normally polyadenylated. Integrator recruitment to all three gene classes is DSIF-dependent, suggesting that Integrator functions as a termination complex at DSIF-dependent RNA Polymerase II pause sites. HITseq was used to interrogate chromatin binding sites of of proteins in the complex (including INIP, INTS3, INTS9, INTS11, NABP1, NABP2, NELFA, NELFB, NELFCD, NELFE, SPT5). These proteins were fused to LEDGF-IBD and expressed in mouse LEDGF-/-MEF cells. The fusion proteins then target HIV integration to the chromatin binding sites. The HIV integration sites were identified using linker-mediated PCR and highthroughput sequencing and serve as surrogate for chromatin binding sites. Mapping was done using mouse genome mm9.

BRAT1 Links Integrator and Defective RNA Processing with Neurodegeneration

Project description:Mutations in BRAT1, encoding BRCA1-associated ATM activator 1, have been associated with neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders characterized by heterogeneous phenotypes with varying levels of clinical severity. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of disease pathology remain poorly understood. Here, we show that BRAT1 is a functional component of the RNA processing protein complex, Integrator. BRAT1 interacts with the INTS9/INTS11 heterodimer, the core Integrator cleavage complex that processes the 3’ ends of various non-coding RNAs and pre-mRNAs, and we find that Integrator integrity and function are disrupted by BRAT1 deletion. In particular, defects in BRAT1 impede proper 3’ end processing of UsnRNAs, snoRNAs, and replication-dependent histone mRNAs, and alter expression of protein-coding genes. Importantly, defects in Integrator integrity and function are also evident in patient-derived cells from BRAT1 related neurological disease. Collectively, these data identify BRAT1 as a functional component of Integrator and link defects in this critical endonuclease complex with hereditary neurodegenerative disease.

Transcriptional dysregulation by a nucleus-localized aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase is associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy

Project description:Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a length-dependent peripheral neuropathy. The aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases constitute the largest protein family implicated in CMT. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are predominantly cytoplasmic, but are also present in the nucleus. Here we show that a nuclear function of tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS) is implicated in a Drosophila model of CMT. CMT-causing mutations in TyrRS induce unique conformational changes, which confer capacity for aberrant interactions with transcriptional regulators in the nucleus, leading to transcription factor E2F1 hyperactivation. Using neuronal tissues, we reveal a broad transcriptional regulation network associated with wild-type TyrRS expression, which is disturbed when a CMT-mutant is expressed. Pharmacological inhibition of TyrRS nuclear entry with embelin reduces, whereas genetic nuclear exclusion of mutant TyrRS prevents hallmark phenotypes of CMT in the Drosophila model. These data highlight that this translation factor may contribute to transcriptional regulation in neurons, and suggest a therapeutic target for CMT.
