SAFB regulates hippocampal stem cell fate by targeting Drosha to destabilize Nfib mRNA
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Neural stem cell regulation is essential for the formation of the central nervous system and homeostatic neurogenesis in the adult mammalian brain. The RNAseIII Drosha, a key component of the miRNA microprocessor, plays a central role in regulating NSC maintenance partially through a miRNA-independent mechanism. Drosha controls mRNA expression levels by targeting and cleaving evolutionary conserved stem-loop hairpins located in the mRNAs of stem cell-related transcription factors. However, it is unknown how the Drosha-mediated endonucleolytic cleavage of mRNA is regulated. Here, we identify novel Drosha and NFIB interactors in hippocampal NSCs by in vitro pull-down assays followed by Mass Spectrometry. We unravel the RNA binding proteins implicated in Drosha-mediated regulation of neurogenesis and we find Scaffold Attachment Factor B1 to play a novel and essential role in NFIB mRNA regulation during neural stem cell differentiation.
