Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to compare transcriptome profiles of whole blastocysts in the presence or absence of UPF2, via an approach optimized for low-input samples. Methods: Blastocyst mRNA profiles of wild-type (WT) and Upf2 knockout (Upf2−/−) mice were generated by deep sequencing, using Illumina 2500. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with DESeq2 and with IsoformSwitchAnalyzeR. Results: We identified transcripts targeted for decay by UPF2 and the NMD pathway in the blastocyst via multiple methods. We found that NMD regulates a cohort of RNAs involved in cell survival.

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) functions to degrade transcripts bearing premature stop codon (PTC) and is a crucial regulator of gene expression. NMD and the UPF3B gene have been implicated as the cause of various forms of intellectual disability (ID) and other neurological symptoms. Here, we reports three patients with global developmental delay carrying hemizygous deletions of the UPF2 gene, another important member of the NMD pathway and direct interacting partner of UPF3B. Using RNA-SEQ on lymphoblastoid cells from UPF2 deletion patients, we identified 1009 differently expressed genes (DEGs). 38% of these DEGs overlapped with DEGs identified in UPF3B patients. More importantly, 95% of all DEGs in either UPF2 or UPF3B patients share the same trend of de-regulation. This demonstrates that the transcriptome deregulation in these two patient groups is similar and that UPF2 should be considered as a new candidate gene for ID in man. We expanded our inq`uiries and performed a comprehensive search for copy number variations (CNVs) encompassing all NMD genes in cohorts of ID patients and controls. We found that UPF2, UPF3A, Y14, SMG6 and EIF4A3 are frequently deleted and/or duplicated in ID patients. These CNVs are likely to be the root of the problems or to act as predisposing factors. Our results suggest that dosage imbalance of NMD factors is associated with ID and further emphasize the importance of NMD in normal learning and memory processes.

Project description:Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is an evolutionarily conserved surveillance mechanism that targets mRNAs undergoing premature translation termination for rapid degradation as well as normal physiological transcripts. From yeast to humans, NMD requires the function of three conserved Up-frameshift (Upf) factors (Upf1, Upf2, Upf3). Interestingly, in humans, mutations in UPF2 and UPF3B are associated with intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the neurobiological mechanism by which deficient NMD leads to neurodevelopmental disorders remains unknown. Consequently, no treatment is currently available. Here we report that mice lacking Upf2 in the murine forebrain (Upf2 fb-KO mice) show endophenotypes associated with ASD and deficits in learning and memory. In addition, Upf2-mediated deficient NMD leads to abnormal long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus. Like patients with mutations in UPF2, Upf2 fb-KO mice showed neuroanatomical abnormalities including a smaller corpus callosum. Surprisingly, transcriptomic analysis revealed elevated mRNA expression of immune-related genes in the hippocampus of Upf2-fb-KO mice, which was accompanied by increased inflammation and progressive infiltration of peripheral immune cells. More importantly, treatment with an FDA-approved immunosuppressant, cyclophosphamide (CyP), significantly reduces brain inflammation, improves the neuroanatomical defects and the deficits in LTP and memory deficits, and reverses some of the ASD-like behaviors, notably the social deficits. Collectively, our results reveal the biological basis underlying neurodevelopmental disorders associated with dysfunctional NMD. Moreover, these findings suggest that immunosuppressant drugs, like CyP, may provide a new therapeutic approach for the treatment of patients with mutations in core NMD components.

Project description:The RNA helicase UPF1 interacts with mRNAs, mRNA decay machinery, and the terminating ribosome to promote nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). Structural and biochemical data have revealed that UPF1 exists in an enzymatically autoinhibited “closed” state. Upon binding the NMD protein UPF2, UPF1 undergoes an extensive conformational change into a more enzymatically active “open” state, which exhibits enhanced ATPase and helicase activity. However, mechanically deficient UPF1 mutants can support efficient NMD, bringing into question the roles of UPF1 enzymatic autoinhibition and activation in NMD. Here, we identify two additional important features of the activated open state: slower nucleic acid binding kinetics and enhanced ATP-stimulated nucleic acid dissociation kinetics. Computational modeling based on empirical measurements of UPF1, UPF2, and RNA interaction kinetics predicts that the majority of UPF1-RNA binding and dissociation events in cells occur independently of UPF2 binding. We find that UPF1 mutants with either reduced or accelerated dissociation from RNA have NMD defects, whereas UPF1 mutants that are more dependent on UPF2 for catalytic activity remain active on well-established NMD targets. These findings support a model in which the kinetics of UPF1-mRNA interactions are important determinants of cellular NMD efficiency.

Project description:Introgressed variants from other species can be an important source of genetic variation because they may arise rapidly, can include multiple mutations on a single haplotype, and have often been pretested by selection in the species of origin. Although introgressed alleles are generally deleterious, several studies have reported introgression as the source of adaptive alleles-including the rodenticide-resistant variant of Vkorc1 that introgressed from Mus spretus into European populations of Mus musculus domesticus. Here, we conducted bidirectional genome scans to characterize introgressed regions into one wild population of M. spretus from Spain and three wild populations of M. m. domesticus from France, Germany, and Iran. Despite the fact that these species show considerable intrinsic postzygotic reproductive isolation, introgression was observed in all individuals, including in the M. musculus reference genome (GRCm38). Mus spretus individuals had a greater proportion of introgression compared with M. m. domesticus, and within M. m. domesticus, the proportion of introgression decreased with geographic distance from the area of sympatry. Introgression was observed on all autosomes for both species, but not on the X-chromosome in M. m. domesticus, consistent with known X-linked hybrid sterility and inviability genes that have been mapped to the M. spretus X-chromosome. Tract lengths were generally short with a few outliers of up to 2.7 Mb. Interestingly, the longest introgressed tracts were in olfactory receptor regions, and introgressed tracts were significantly enriched for olfactory receptor genes in both species, suggesting that introgression may be a source of functional novelty even between species with high barriers to gene flow.

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a conserved co-translational mRNA surveillance and turnover pathway across eukaryotes. NMD has a central role in degrading defective mRNAs and also regulates the stability of a significant portion of the transcriptome. The pathway is organized around UPF1, an RNA helicase that can interact with several NMD-specific factors. In human cells, degradation of the targeted mRNAs begins with a cleavage event that requires the recruitment of the SMG6 endonuclease to UPF1. Previous studies have identified functional links between SMG6 and UPF1, but the underlying molecular mechanisms have remained elusive. In this work, we used mass spectrometry, structural biology and biochemical approaches to identify and characterize a conserved short linear motif in SMG6 that interacts with the cysteine/histidine-rich (CH) domain of UPF1. Unexpectedly, we found that the UPF1-SMG6 interaction is precluded when the UPF1 CH domain is engaged with another NMD factor, UPF2. Based on cryo-EM data, we propose that the formation of distinct SMG6-containing and UPF2-containing NMD complexes may be dictated by the RNA-binding status of UPF1. Our findings rationalize a key event in the metazoan NMD quality control pathway and progress our understanding of mechanisms regulating activity and guiding substrate recognition by the SMG6 endonuclease.
