Homeostatic Regulation of Nucleoporins is the Primary Driver of Nuclear Pore Biogenesis

ABSTRACT: Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are the multiprotein channels that control the access to the genome. Because of their critical functions, the number of NPCs that cells assemble is tightly controlled and varies between different cell types, cellular states, and in diseases. However, the mechanisms that regulate NPC formation and numbers in mammalian cells remain largely unclear. Using a genome-wide siRNA screen for modulators of NPC assembly, we identified translation-related factors, proteasome components, and the CCR4-NOT mRNA deadenylase complex as the top regulators of NPC numbers. We found that stabilization of nucleoporin mRNAs by inhibition of the CCR4-NOT stoichiometrically increases nucleoporin protein levels and enhances NPC assembly in normal and cancer cells. Inhibiting protein translation in CCR4-NOT defective cells blocks the increase in NPC numbers, indicating that nucleoporin mRNA levels are rate-limiting for NPC biogenesis. We found that inhibiting proteasome activity also promotes NPC biogenesis, indicating that nucleoporins required for nuclear pore formation are normally produced in excess. Our findings show that nucleoporin mRNA and protein degradation restrict NPC assembly and indicate nucleoporin homeostasis is the main mechanism regulating NPC numbers in mammalian cells.

Maturation kinetics of a multiprotein complex revealed by metabolic labeling

Project description:The project aims at computing in vivo co-assembly kinetics from metabolomic-inspired approaches. In short, we performed reciprocal pull-down experiments from complex cellular components at different time points following pulsed-SILAC metabolic labeling. We applied the method to 320 pairs of yeast nucleoporin (NUP) proteins constituting the ~ 50 MDa Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC). Our analysis reveals a hierarchical principle of the NPC biogenesis where individual subcomplexes form on a minute time-scale, followed by their co-assembly from central to peripheral subunits in a ~ 1 hour long maturation process.

The nucleoporin Nup170p is required for subtelomeric chromatin structure and gene silencing. [MNase-Seq]

Project description:Transcriptionally silent heterochromatin preferentially localizes at the nuclear periphery, but, despite this, certain budding yeast genes relocate to the nuclear periphery following gene activation, implicating the nuclear envelope in both transcriptional activation and silencing. It is unclear how these distinct chromatin domains are established, maintained and distinguished from one another at the nuclear envelope. Here we report that nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) facilitate the transition between chromatin states by providing a platform to which chromatin-remodeling and chromatin-modifying complexes bind. In particular, we show that the RSC chromatin-remodeling complex associates with NPCs and that the nucleoporin Nup170p nucleates heterochromatin formation at telomeres through recruitment of Sir4p. Deletion of NUP170 altered subtelomeric chromatin structure, reduced SIR complex binding at telomeres, impaired telomeric silencing and abated telomere tethering. These results support a model in which telomeric heterochromatin formation occurs through telomere-NPC interactions that both promote Sir4p binding at telomeres and permit chromatin-remodeling complexes to mediate the transition between chromatin states.

Docking a flexible basket onto the core of the nuclear pore complex

Project description:The nuclear basket attaches to the nucleoplasmic side of the nuclear pore complex (NPC), coupling transcription to mRNA quality control and export. The basket expands the functional repertoire of a subset of NPCs in S. cerevisiae by drawing a unique RNA/protein interactome. Yet, how the basket docks onto the NPC core remains unknown. By integrating AlphaFold-powered interaction screens, electron microscopy and membrane-templated reconstitution, we uncovered a membrane-anchored tripartite junction between basket and NPC core. The basket subunit Nup60 harbours three adjacent short linear motifs (SLiMs) which connect Mlp1, a parallel homodimer consisting of coiled-coil segments interrupted by flexible hinges, and the Nup85 subunit of the Y-complex. We reconstituted the Y-complex•Nup60•Mlp1 assembly on a synthetic membrane and validated the protein interfaces in vivo. Our study explains how a SLiM-based protein junction can substantially reshape NPC structure and function, advancing our understanding of compositional and conformational NPC heterogeneity.

Nuclear transport surveillance of p53 by nuclear pores in glioblastoma

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are the central apparatus of nucleocytoplasmic transport. Disease-specific alterations of NPCs contribute to the pathogenesis of many cancers; however, the roles of NPCs in glioblastoma (GBM) are unknown. In this study, we report genomic amplification of NUP107, a component of NPCs, in GBM and show that NUP107 is overexpressed simultaneously with MDM2, a critical E3 ligase that mediates p53 degradation. Depletion of NUP107 inhibits the growth of GBM cell lines through p53 protein stabilization. Mechanistically, NPCs establish a p53 degradation platform via an export pathway coupled with 26S proteasome tethering. NUP107 is the keystone for NPC assembly; the loss of NUP107 affects the integrity of the NPC structure, and thus the proportion of 26S proteasome in the vicinity of nuclear pores significantly decreases. Together, our findings establish roles of NPCs in transport surveillance and provide insights into p53 inactivation in GBM.

Functional interaction of chromatin with nucleoporins in Drosophila

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) mediate transport across the nuclear envelope. In yeast, they have also been proposed to interact with active genes, attracting or retaining them at the nuclear periphery. However, some NPC components (nucleoporins) in higher eukaryotes are also found in the nucleoplasm, with so far unknown function. Therefore, we have functionally distinguished between nucleoporin-chromatin interactions at the NPC and within the nucleoplasm in Drosophila. For this we analyzed genomic interactions of full-length nucleoporins Nup98, Nup50 and Nup62 and nucleoplasmic and NPC-tethered forms of Nup98. We found that nucleoporins predominantly interacted with transcriptionally active genes inside the nucleoplasm. A smaller set of non-active genes interacted with the NPC. We identified a direct role for nucleoplasmic Nup98 in stimulating gene expression, as genes downregulated upon Nup98 depletion were activated upon nucleoplasmic Nup98 overexpression and showed strong nucleoplasmic Nup98 interaction. Thus, nucleoporins stimulate gene expression away from the NPC by interacting with genes inside the nucleoplasm.

The nuclear pore-associated TREX-2 complex employs the Mediator Med31 submodule as a docking site to regulate gene expression

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) influence gene expression besides their established function in nuclear transport. The TREX-2 complex localizes to the NPC basket and affects gene-NPC interactions, transcription and mRNA export. How TREX-2 regulates the gene expression machinery is unknown. Here, we show that TREX-2 interacts with the Mediator complex, an essential regulator of RNA Polymerase (Pol) II. Structural and biochemical studies identify a conserved region on TREX-2, which directly binds the Mediator Med31/Med7N submodule. TREX-2 regulates assembly of Mediator with its Cdk8 kinase and is required for recruitment and site-specific phosphorylation of Pol II. Transcriptome and phenotypic profiling confirm that TREX-2 and Med31 are functionally interdependent. TREX-2 additionally uses its Mediator-interacting surface to regulate mRNA export suggesting a mechanism for coupling transcription initiation and early steps of mRNA processing at the Mediator level. In sum, we provide insight into how NPC-associated adaptor complexes can access the core transcription machinery. RNAseq was performed from WT, sac3∆, cdk8∆ and Sac3 R288D mutant cells. For each strain triplicates were analyzed. WT strain was sac3∆ transformed with pRS315 SAC3 WT

The nucleoporin Nup50 activates the Ran guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor RCC1 to promote NPC assembly at the end of mitosis

Project description:During mitotic exit, thousands of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) assemble concomitant with the nuclear envelope to build a transport-competent nucleus. Here, we show that Nup50 plays a crucial role in NPC assembly independent of its well-established function in nuclear transport. RNAi-mediated downregulation in cells or immunodepletion of Nup50 protein in Xenopus egg extracts interferes with NPC assembly. We define a conserved central region of 46 residues in Nup50 that is crucial for Nup153 and MEL28/ELYS binding, and for NPC interaction. Surprisingly, neither NPC interaction nor binding of Nup50 to importin /, the GTPase Ran, or chromatin is crucial for its function in the assembly process. Instead, an N-terminal fragment of Nup50 can stimulate the Ran GTPase guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor RCC1 and NPC assembly, indicating that Nup50 acts via the Ran system in NPC reformation at the end of mitosis. In support of this conclusion, Nup50 mutants defective in RCC1 binding and stimulation cannot replace the wild-type protein in in vitro NPC assembly assays, while excess RCC1 can compensate the loss of Nup50.

VAPB interacts with phosphorylated ELYS at decondensing chromosomes during mitosis (AP-MS Data)

Project description:ELYS is a nucleoporin that localizes to the nuclear side of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) in interphase cells. In mitosis, it serves as an assembly platform that interacts with chromatin and then with nucleoporin subcomplexes to initiate post-mitotic NPC assembly. Here we identified and characterized ELYS as a major binding partner of the membrane protein VAPB during mitosis. In mitosis, ELYS becomes phosphorylated at many sites, including a predicted FFAT (two phenylalanines in an acidic tract) motif, which is shown to mediate interaction with the MSP (major sperm protein)-domain of VAPB. Phosphorylation-dependent binding of VAPB to ELYS is demonstrated by peptide binding assays and co-immunoprecipitation experiments. In anaphase, the two proteins co-localize to the non-core region of the newly forming nuclear envelope. Depletion of VAPB resulted in prolonged mitosis and slow progression from meta- to anaphase and also to chromosome segregation defects. Together, our results suggest a role of ELYS-VAPB-complexes in recruiting membrane fragments to chromatin.
