Project description:The nucleolus is a membraneless organelle responsible for ribosome biogenesis, perinuclear heterochromatin formation, and genome stability regulation. However, how cell fate decision occurs, including early embryonic development, ESC differentiation, and tumorigenesis, remains poorly understood at the nucleolar level. It has been observed that large nucleoli and rDNA hyperactivity are common in pluripotent stem cells and tumor cells, while the nucleolus shrinks and rDNA transcriptional activity decrease during lineage commitment. iPSCs nucleolar size and rDNA transcriptional activity are greater than that before reprogramming. It remains unclear how and when the differentiated cell nucleoli convert to the stem cell nucleoli during iPSC reprogramming.In this study, we found that nucleolar remodeling, manifested as enlarged nucleolus, activation of rDNA transcription, enhanced activity of nucleolar organizing regions (NORs), and conversion of reticular nucleolar ultrastructure into low-granular, is an early and stage-specific event that occurs during iPSCs reprogramming. Our study highlights the importance of rDNA transcriptional activity in the early stages of iPSC reprogramming, which is crucial for nucleolar remodeling and regaining stemness. Interfering rDNA transcription hinders nucleolar remodeling, which has disastrous consequences for chromatin remodeling in early stage of iPSC reprogramming and iPSCs establishment. Moreover, our results revealed a nucleolar regulation on chromatin accessibility during iPSC reprogramming and identified some candidate genes (Mybl2, Bard1 and other chromosome related genes) that might be associated with iPSC reprogramming, which may apply to nucleolar remodeling in other cell fated decision.

Project description:Nucleolar ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeats control ribosome manufacturing. rDNA harbors a ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene and an intergenic spacer (IGS). RNA polymerase (Pol) I transcribes rRNA genes yielding the rRNA components of ribosomes. Pol II at the IGS induces rRNA production by preventing Pol I from excessively synthesizing IGS non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that can disrupt nucleoli. At the IGS, Pol II regulatory processes and whether Pol I function can be beneficial remain unknown. Here, we identify IGS Pol II regulators, uncovering nucleolar optimization via IGS Pol I. Compartment-enriched proximity-dependent biotin identification (compBioID) showed enrichment of the TATA-less promoter-binding TBPL1 and transcription regulator PAF1 with IGS Pol II. TBPL1 localizes to TCT motifs, driving Pol II and Pol I and maintaining its baseline ncRNA levels. PAF1 promotes Pol II elongation, preventing unscheduled R-loops that hyper-restrain IGS Pol I and its ncRNAs. PAF1 or TBPL1 deficiency disrupts nucleolar organization and rRNA biogenesis. In PAF1-deficient cells, repressing unscheduled IGS R-loops rescues nucleolar organization and rRNA production. Depleting IGS Pol I-dependent ncRNAs is sufficient to compromise nucleoli. We present the interactome of nucleolar Pol II and show its control by TBPL1 and PAF1 ensures IGS Pol I ncRNAs maintaining nucleolar structure and operation.

Project description:Induction of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeats is associated with ATM-dependent repression of ribosomal RNA synthesis and large-scale reorganization of nucleolar architecture, but the signaling events that regulate these responses are largely elusive. Here we show that the nucleolar response to rDNA breaks is dependent on both ATM and ATR activity. We further demonstrate that ATM- and NBS1-dependent recruitment of TOPBP1 in the nucleoli is required for inhibition of ribosomal RNA synthesis and nucleolar segregation in response to rDNA breaks. Mechanistically, TOPBP1 recruitment is mediated by phosphorylation-dependent interactions between three of its BRCT domains and conserved phosphorylated Ser/Thr residues at the C-terminus of the nucleolar phosphoprotein Treacle. Our data thus reveal an important cooperation between TOPBP1 and Treacle in the signaling cascade that triggers transcriptional inhibition and nucleolar segregation in response to rDNA breaks.

Project description:Ribonucleotides serve important cellular functions as energy carriers, signaling molecules and building blocks of RNA. In eukaryotes, rRNA and tRNA synthesis in the nucleolus accounts together for over 90% of all RNA molecules. In many cancers, high proliferation rates correlated with elevation of rRNA and tRNA levels4 and nucleolar hypertrophy. However, the metabolic changes that lead to the increased nucleolar transcription and in turn foster tumorigenesis are incompletely understood. Here we show that in the highly lethal brain cancer glioblastoma (GBM), inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase-2 (IMPDH2), the rate-limiting enzyme for de novo guanine nucleotide biosynthesis, is overexpressed. This leads to increased rRNA and tRNA synthesis and stabilization of the oncogenic GTP-binding protein nucleostemin, and enlarged and malformed nucleoli. Pharmacological or genetic inactivation of IMPDH2 reverses these malignant effects and inhibits GBM cell proliferation, whereas untransformed glia cells are unaffected. Impairment of IMPDH2 activity triggers nucleolar stress and growth arrest of GBM cells even in the absence of functional p53. Our results have uncovered upregulation of IMPDH2 as a prerequisite for aberrant nucleolar function and translational capacity in GBM. This GTP metabolic reprogramming constitutes a primary event in gliomagenesis and has implications for GBM treatment and possible malignant transformation in other cancers.

Project description:The histone methyltransferase DOT1L catalyzes methylation of H3K79 and it is highly conserved in mammals. DOT1L plays a functional role in several biological processes including cell cycle regulation, DNA repair, RNA splicing and gene expression, suggesting a complex role in chromatin organization and regulation. Such a remarkable range of functions performed by DOT1l can be the result, at least partially, of its interaction with different proteins and presence in different complexes. Here, we characterized the interaction of DOT1L with the nucleolar protein NPM1 and the impact of the DOT1L/NPM1 complex on nucleoli organization and activity. We show that i) DOT1L interacts preferentially with monomeric NPM1 in the nucleus; ii) DOT1L interaction with NPM1 is key to maintain their protein homeostasis; iii) NPM1 depletion results in H3K79me2 upregulation at chromatin remodeling genes; iv) DOT1L/NPM1 complex preserved peri-nucleolar heterochromatin organization via epigenetic mechanisms. Our findings unravel the molecular mechanisms employed by the DOT1L/NPM1 complex to maintain heterochromatin organization around the nucleoli and shed light on one aspect of the complex role of DOT1L in chromatin dynamics.

Project description:The nucleolus is a subnuclear compartment with a key role in ribosome biogenesis and cellular stress responses. These mechanisms are governed by a complex interaction of proteins, including the NOC1 network. This study reveals a novel relationship between NOC1 and MYC transcription factor, known for its key role in controlling ribosomal biogenesis and cell growth and proliferation. Here, we demonstrate that NOC1 functions as a direct target of MYC, as it is transcriptionally induced through a functional MYC-binding E-box sequence in the NOC1 promoter region. Furthermore, interactome analysis reveals that NOC1-complex includes the nucleolar proteins NOC2 and NOC3 and other nucleolar components such as Nucleostemin1 Ns1 and mainly components for the transport of ribosomal subunits and maturation and with components for rRNA processing. In response to MYC, NOC1 expression and localization within the nucleolus significantly increase, suggesting a direct functional link between MYC activity and NOC1 function. Notably, NOC1 over-expression leads to the formation of large nuclear granules and enlarged nucleoli, which co-localize with nucleolar fibrillarin and Ns1. Additionally, we demonstrate that NOC1 expression is necessary for Ns1 nucleolar localization, suggesting a role for NOC1 in maintaining nucleolar structure. Finally, the co-expression of NOC1 and MYC enhances the formation of abnormal structures formed by NOC1 within the nucleolus, outlining another aspect of NOC1 and MYC cooperation in nucleolar dynamics. This study reveals NOC1's interactions with proteins involved in RNA processing, modification, and splicing, such as Ythdc1, Flacc, and spenito. These proteins play key roles in mediating N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation of mRNAs. NOC1's potential involvement in coordinating RNA splicing and nuclear mRNA export highlights its significance in regulating gene expression. In summary, our study uncovers novel roles for NOC1 in nucleolar homeostasis and establishes its direct connection with MYC in the network governing nucleolar structure and function. These findings also highlight NOC1's interaction with proteins relevant for RNA processing, modification, and splicing, suggesting a broader role in addition to its control of nucleolar homeostasis, providing new insight into NOC1 function that can be further investigated into its function in regulating cellular growth and proliferation.
