Project description:Nuclear speckles are membraneless organelles that associate with active transcription sites and participate in post-transcriptional mRNA processing. During mitosis, nuclear speckles dissolve following phosphorylation of their protein components. Here, we identify PP1 phosphatases as responsible for counteracting kinase-mediated dissolution. Their overexpression increases speckle cohesion and leads to retention of polyadenylated RNA within speckles and the nucleus. By performing APEX2 proximity labeling combined with RNA-sequencing, we characterized the association of specific RNAs with nuclear speckles depending on their cohesion state. We find that many transcripts are preferentially enriched within nuclear speckles compared to the nucleoplasm, particularly chromatin- and nucleus-associated transcripts. While total polyadenylated RNA retention increased with greater nuclear speckle cohesion, the ratios of most mRNA species to each other were constant, indicating non-selective, or proportional, retention. We then explored whether nuclear speckle cohesion changes in response to environmental perturbations associated with changes in kinase or phosphatase activity. We found that cellular responses to heat shock, oxidative stress, and hypoxia include changes to the cohesion of nuclear speckles and mRNA retention. Our results demonstrate that tuning the material properties of nuclear speckles provides a mechanism for the acute control of mRNA localization.

Project description:Dysregulation of RNA processing contributes to neurodegenerative diseases, especially amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Expansion of an intronic (GGGGCC)n repeat within the C9ORF72 gene is the most common cause of both FTD and ALS (C9-FTD/ALS), characterized with aberrant repeat RNA foci in the nucleus and noncanonical translation-produced dipeptide repeat (DPR) protein inclusions in the cytoplasm. Here we elucidate that the (GGGGCC)n repeat RNA co-localizes with nuclear speckles and alters their phase separation properties and granule dynamics. Moreover, the essential nuclear speckle scaffold protein SRRM2 is sequestered into the poly-GR cytoplasmic inclusions in C9-FTD/ALS mouse model and patient postmortem tissues, exacerbating the nuclear speckle dysfunction. Impaired nuclear speckle integrity induces global exon-skipping and intron retention in human iPSC-derived neurons. Similar alternative splicing changes can be found in patient postmortem tissues. This work identified novel molecular mechanism of global RNA splicing defects by impaired nuclear speckle function in C9-FTD/ALS and revealed novel potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets.

Project description:UBL5 is an atypical ubiquitin-like protein, whose function in metazoans remains largely unexplored. We show that UBL5 is required for sister chromatid cohesion maintenance in human cells. UBL5 primarily associates with spliceosomal proteins, and UBL5 depletion decreases pre-mRNA splicing efficiency, leading to globally enhanced intron retention. Defective sister chromatid cohesion is a general consequence of dysfunctional pre-mRNA splicing, resulting from the selective downregulation of the cohesion protection factor Sororin. As the UBL5 yeast orthologue, Hub1, also promotes spliceosome functions, our results show that UBL5 plays an evolutionary conserved role in pre-mRNA splicing, the integrity of which is essential for the fidelity of chromosome segregation.

Project description:Nuclear speckles are prominent nuclear bodies that contain a myriad of factors involved in gene expression. The role of nuclear speckles as activating transcriptional compartments is emerging. However, the extent that the association between speckles and DNA is regulatable, and the mechanisms that govern regulated speckle association are currently unclear. Using DNA- and RNA-FISH, we show that speckle association can be mediated by the p53 transcription factor, finding that p53 activation drives speckle association of specific p53 transcriptional targets. Analysis of a key p53 target, p21, revealed an increase in nascent transcripts at speckle-adjacent transcription sites, supporting a role for speckles in amplifying transcriptional output. Importantly, p53-regulated speckle association of p21 did not depend on transcriptional activation, demonstrating that speckle association is not merely a consequence of gene expression. In contrast, speckle association of p21 did require DNA binding functions of p53, providing a mechanism for the specificity by which speckle association is regulated. Beyond p21, a substantial subset of p53 targets have p53-regulated speckle association, while other p53 targets do not, and we find that genomic context is highly deterministic of which target genes have regulated speckle association. These findings reveal a novel means by which transcription factors may control gene expression and provide a mechanism for the specificity of regulated speckle association.
