Project description:Here, we report that the Greatwall-Endosulfine-PPA/B55 pathway connects the downregulation of TORC1 with the upregulation of TORC2, resulting in the activation of Elongator-dependent tRNA modifications essential for sustaining the translation programme during entry into quiescence. This process promotesU34 and A37 tRNA modifications at the anticodon stem loop, enhancing translation efficiency and fidelity of mRNAs enriched for AAA versus AAG lysine codons. Notably, some of these mRNAs encode inhibitors of TORC1, activators of TORC2, tRNA modifiers, and proteins necessary for telomeric and subtelomeric functions. Therefore, we propose a novel mechanism by which cells respond to nitrogen stress at the level of translation, involving a coordinated interplay between the tRNA epitranscriptome and biased codon usage.

Project description:In fission yeast cell cycle exit, autophagy, G1 arrest and entry into quiescence are coordinated by the activity of the protein phosphatase PP2A/B55 through the Greatwall-Endosulfine switch. In order to study the role of this pathway in the transcriptional changes that occur during entry into quiescence, RNA was extracted from wild-type cells and from four mutant strains at three time points.

Project description:Cellular quiescence is coupled with cellular development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer progression. Both quiescence and cell cycle re-entry are controlled by active and precise regulation of gene expression. However, the roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) during these processes remain to be elucidated. By performing a genome-wide transcriptome analyses, we identify thousands of differentially expressed lncRNAs, including ~30 of the less-characterized class of microRNA-host-gene lncRNAs (lnc-MIRHGs), during cellular quiescence and during serum-stimulation in human diploid cells. We observe that the mature MIR222HG display serum-stimulated induction due to enhanced pre-RNA splicing. Serum-stimulated binding of the pre-mRNA splicing factor SRSF1 to a micro-exon, which partially overlaps with the primary miR-222 precursor, facilitates enhanced MIR222HG splicing. In serum-stimulated cells, SRSF1 negatively regulates the Drosha/DGCR8-catalyzed cleavage of pri-miR-222, thereby increasing the cellular pool of the mature MIR222HG. Further, loss-of-function studies indicate that the mature MIR222HG facilitates the serum-stimulated cell cycle re-entry in a microRNA-independent manner. Mechanistically, MIR222HG, along with ILF3/2 complex, forms RNA:RNA duplex with DNM3OS lncRNA, thereby promoting DNM3OS stability. The current study identifies a mechanism in which the interplay between splicing versus microprocessor complex dictates the serum-induced expression of lnc-MIRHG MIR222HG for efficient cell cycle re-entry.

Project description:Elongator is a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex associated with RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) to facilitate transcription elongation. It consists of subunits Elp1-6, with Elp3 conferring HAT activity. Elongator is conserved in yeast, plants and humans. In humans, mutations in Elp genes cause neuronal diseases. In plants, Elongator is a positive regulator of cell proliferation during leaf and root growth. Consequently, Arabidopsis Elongator mutants (elo) have narrow leaves and short roots; additionally, germination, vegetative growth and reproductive development are also affected. Mutants have altered auxin signaling, and a number of auxin-related genes are among those differentially expressed in the mutant. Only two genes have been confirmed as targeted by Elongator during RNAPII transcription elongation, including the light-regulated auxin response regulator IAA3/SHY2.

Project description:Quiescence is a cellular state characterized by reversible cell-cycle arrest and diminished biosynthetic activity that protects against environmental insults, replicative exhaustion and proliferation-induced mutations. Entry into and exit from this state controls development, maintenance and repair of tissues, plus in the adult central nervous system, generation of new neurons and thus cognition and mood. Cancer stem cells too can undergo quiescence, which confers them resistance to current therapies. Despite clinical relevance, quiescence lacks understanding and is defined functionally given lack of molecular markers. Inhibition of the Target of Rapamycin pathway is a common denominator of quiescence across species and cell types. This pathway integrates diverse signals towards control of metabolism and cytoskeleton, and lowered pathway activity in quiescence ensures decrease of the most resource-¬intensive cellular process of protein synthesis. Here, we combine Drosophila genetics and a mammalian model to show that altered nucleocytoplasmic partitioning and nuclear bias of a fraction of polyadenylated RNAs are novel evolutionarily conserved mechanisms of quiescence regulation. Altogether, these mechanisms contribute a new regulatory layer to inhibition of protein translation in quiescent cells, whilst likely priming them for quick reactivation in response to appropriate cues.

Project description:A collection of stable Drosophila S2 cell lines was established, each one expressing a (His)-PC SNAP tagged version of each of the six Elongator subunits. From these stable lines, the endogenous Elongator complex can be recovered by pulling on the exogenous subunit via the PC tag. This allowed us to test which subunit can be over-expressed and used to recover the full Elongator complex for further in vitro experiments.

Project description:Quiescence is a distinct cell cycle phase, termed G0, in which growth, transcription, translation, and replication are suppressed. Yeast cells enter G0 following glucose exhaustion but remain viable for an extended period and can re-enter the cell cycle when returned to glucose-rich medium. Quiescence is a feature of all organisms and is essential for the maintenance of stem cells and tissue renewal. Quiescence is also related to chronological lifespan (CLS) - or the capacity of post-mitotic quiescent cells to survive over time - and thus contributes to longevity. However, important questions remain to be answered regarding the mechanisms that control entry into quiescence, the maintenance of quiescence, and the re-entry of quiescent cells into the cell cycle. Histone acetylation is lost during the formation of quiescent yeast cells, and chromatin becomes highly condensed. This unique chromatin landscape plays a key role in supporting quiescence-specific transcriptional repression and has been linked to the formation and maintenance of quiescent cells. To ask if other chromatin features regulate quiescence, we conducted a comprehensive screen of histone H3 and H4 mutants. We identified several mutants that show altered quiescence entry and have characterized their chromatin phenotypes. None of these mutants retain histone acetylation, while several have altered chromatin condensation. Additionally, a screen for H3 and H4 mutants with altered chronological lifespan showed that CLS is highly correlated with quiescence entry.

Project description:Phosphatase PP2A expression level is positively correlated to the clinical severity of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and IL17A cytokine overproduction, indicating a potential role of PP2A in controlling TH17 differentiation and inflammation. By generating a mouse strain with the ablation of the catalytic subunit α of PP2A in peripheral mature T cells (PP2A cKO), we provide evidence here that PP2A complex is essential in TH17 differentiation. Hence, PP2A cKO mice exhibited a selective reduction of TH17 cell numbers and an attenuated disease severity in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model. Importantly, PP2A deficiency ablated c-terminal phosphorylation of SMAD2 whereas increased c-terminal phosphorylation of SMAD3. Through direct binding to and regulating the activity of RORγt, the phosphorylational changes of these R-SMADs subsequently reduced Il17a transcription. Finally, PP2A inhibitors recapitulated the phenotype of PP2A cKO mice, i.e., inhibiting TH17 differentiation and protecting mice from EAE. Together, the current study proves that phosphatase PP2A is essential for TH17 differentiation, and inhibition of PP2A could be a possible therapeutic approach for the controlling of TH17-driven autoimmune diseases.

Project description:Background: Although quiescence—reversible cell-cycle arrest—is a key part in the life history and fate of many mammalian cell types, the mechanisms of gene regulation in quiescent cells are poorly understood. We sought to clarify the role of microRNAs as regulators of the cellular functions of quiescent human fibroblasts. Results: Using microarrays, we discovered that the expression of the majority of profiled microRNAs differed between proliferating and quiescent fibroblasts. Fibroblasts induced into quiescence by contact inhibition or serum starvation had similar microRNA profiles, indicating common changes induced by distinct quiescence signals. By analyzing the gene expression patterns of microRNA target genes with quiescence, we discovered a strong regulatory function for miR-29, which is downregulated with quiescence. Using microarrays and immunoblotting, we confirmed that miR-29 targets genes encoding collagen and other extracellular matrix proteins and that those target genes are induced in quiescence. In addition, overexpression of miR-29 resulted in more rapid cell cycle re-entry from quiescence. We also found that let-7 and miR-125 were upregulated in quiescent cells. Overexpression of either one alone resulted in slower cell cycle re-entry from quiescence, while the combination of both together slowed cell cycle re-entry even further. Conclusions: microRNAs regulate key aspects of fibroblast quiescence including the proliferative state of the cells as well as their gene expression profiles, in particular, the induction of extracellular matrix proteins in quiescent fibroblasts. microRNAs in human neonatal dermal fibroblasts in 3 cell cycle conditions (proliferating, 4 days serum starved, 7 days contact inhibited) were analyzed by one color microarray. 3 separate fibroblast cell lines from different human donors were analyzed for each condition, with two separate labeling and hybridization samples for each cell line. In total, 18 samples were hybridized to the microRNA microarray.

One sample was labeled and analyzed in duplicate to ensure consistency in labeling and hybridization technique.
