Project description:Pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma (PASC) is an aggressive cancer whose mutational origins are poorly understood. An early study reported high-frequency somatic mutations affecting UPF1, a core nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) factor, in PASC, but subsequent studies did not observe these lesions. The corresponding controversy about whether UPF1 mutations are important contributors to PASC has been exacerbated by a paucity of functional studies. Here, we modeled two UPF1 mutations to find no significant effects on pancreatic cancer growth, acquisition of adenosquamous features, UPF1 splicing, UPF1 protein levels, or NMD efficiency. We subsequently discovered that ~40% of UPF1 mutations reportedly present in PASCs are identical to standing genetic variants in the human population, suggesting that they may be non-pathogenic inherited variants rather than pathogenic mutations. Our data suggest that UPF1 is not a common functional driver of PASC and motivate further attempts to identify unique genetic features defining these malignancies.

The corresponding controversy about whether UPF1 mutations are important contributors to PASC has been exacerbated by a paucity of functional studies. Here, we modeled two UPF1 mutations in human and mouse cells to find no significant effects on pancreatic cancer growth, acquisition of adenosquamous features, UPF1 splicing, UPF1 protein, or NMD efficiency. We subsequently discovered that 45% of UPF1 mutations reportedly present in PASCs are identical to standing genetic variants in the human population, suggesting that they may be non-pathogenic inherited variants rather than pathogenic mutations. Our data suggest that UPF1 is not a common functional driver of PASC and motivate further attempts to understand the genetic origins of these malignancies.

Project description:Multiple studies showed that overexpression of UPF1 reduced the growth of HCC. However, it remains unanswered how UPF1 expression retarded HCC proliferation. Thus, this study employed UPF1 variants to evaluate the UPF1 function in HCC growth inhibition. Transcriptome analysis indicated that the level of DUSP1, dual specificity phosphatase 1, was upregulated by UPF1 variants by posttranscriptional regulation. The increase of DUPS1 by UPF1 overexpression repressed the downstream signaling, inhibiting cell growth.

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) controls the quality of eukaryotic gene expression and also degrades physiologic mRNAs. How NMD targets are identified is incompletely understood. A central NMD factor is the ATP-dependent RNA helicase UPF1. Neither the distance in space between the termination codon and the poly(A) tail nor the binding of steady-state, largely hypophosphorylated UPF1 is a discriminating marker of cellular NMD targets, unlike for PTC-containing reporter mRNAs when compared to their PTC-free counterparts. Here, we map phosphorylated UPF1 (p-UPF1) binding sites using transcriptome-wide footprinting or DNA oligonucleotide-directed mRNA cleavage to report that p-UPF1 provides the first reliable cellular NMD-target marker. p-UPF1 is enriched on NMD target 3'UTRs along with SMG5 and SMG7 but not SMG1 or SMG6. Immunoprecipitations of UPF1 variants deficient in various aspects of the NMD process in parallel with FRET experiments reveal that ATPase/helicase-deficient UPF1 manifests high levels of RNA binding and disregulated hyperphosphorylation, whereas wild-type UPF1 releases from nonspecific RNA interactions in an ATP hydrolysis-dependent mechanism until an NMD target is identified. 3'UTR-associated UPF1 undergoes regulated phosphorylation on NMD targets, providing a binding platform for mRNA degradative activities. p-UPF1 binding to NMD target 3'UTRs is stabilized by SMG5 and SMG7. Our results help to explain why steady-state UPF1 binding is not a marker for cellular NMD substrates and how this binding is transformed to induce mRNA decay. RIP-seq experiments for p-UPF1, control IPs using rabbit IgG and additional control sample without IP were performed in duplicates

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne virus that can have dramatic neurodevelopmental consequences when infection occurs in utero. Previous studies demonstrated that ZIKV downregulates the master regulator of nonsense mediated decay, UPF1. To examine whether this process contributes to disruption of neural development, we investigated the effect of ZIKV infection on UPF1 interaction with host RNA in neural progenitor cells. Here, we show that ZIKV-mediated disruption of UPF1 function in neural progenitor cells causes retention of mRNA in the nucleus, resulting in decreased protein levels of specific transcripts involved in neural differentiation.

Project description:To identify high-confidence NMD targets in mouse N2A neuroblastoma cells, we used our established transcriptome-wide RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) methodologies. Through parallel analyses of RNA-seq upon UPF1-knockdown (KD) and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP-seq) footprinting of p-UPF1-bound RNAs, we identified 1027 high-confidence neuronal NMD targets.

Project description:RNA helicases are important regulators of gene expression that act by remodeling RNA secondary structures and as RNA-protein interactions. Here, we demonstrate that MOV10 has an ATP-dependent 5' to 3' in vitro RNA unwinding activity and determine the RNA-binding sites of MOV10 and its helicase mutants using PAR-CLIP. We find that MOV10 predominantly binds to 3' UTRs upstream of regions predicted to form local secondary structures and provide evidence that MOV10 helicase mutants are impaired in their ability to translocate 5' to 3' on their mRNA targets. MOV10 interacts with UPF1, the key component of the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathway. PAR-CLIP of UPF1 reveals that MOV10 and UPF1 bind to RNA in close proximity. Knockdown of MOV10 resulted in increased mRNA half-lives of MOV10-bound as well as UPF1-regulated transcripts, suggesting that MOV10 functions in UPF1-mediated mRNA degradation as an RNA clearance factor to resolve structures and displace proteins from 3' UTRs. Flp-In T-REx HEK293 cells expressing FLAG/HA-tagged MOV10 WT, MOV10 K530A, MOV10 D645N and UPF1 were used to determine the protein-RNA interaction sites of RNA helicases MOV10 and UPF1 as well as MOV10 inactive variants using PAR-CLIP in combination with next generation sequencing. mRNA half-life changes of MOV10-targeted mRNA were determined by measuring mRNA half-lives by mRNA sequencing of mock and MOV10-depleted HEK293 cells.

Project description:DNA/RNA helicase Upf1 seems to interact with axonal transcripts in response to nerve growth factor (NGF, A. Ludanyi, M. Gaspari and A. Riccio, unpublished data). In order to shed light on Upf1 mechanism of action and to identify potential associations with molecules having cleavage activity, we performed an AP-MS experiment comprising Upf1 immunoprecipitation, on-beads digestion, isotopic labelling (18O) and quantitative LC-MS/MS analysis.
