Project description:Nab2 encodes a polyadenosine RNA-binding protein (RBP) with broad roles in post-transcriptional regulation, including in RNA export, poly(A) tail length control, and mRNA splicing, and loss of its human ortholog ZC3H14 gives rise to a form of autosomal recessive intellectual disability. Understanding of Nab2/ZC3H14 function in metazoan nervous systems is limited, in part, because no comprehensive identification of metazoan-Nab2-associated RNA transcripts has yet been conducted. Moreover, many Nab2/ZC3H14 functional protein partnerships likely remain unidentified. Here we present evidence that Drosophila melanogaster Nab2 interacts with the RBP Ataxin-2 (Atx2), a neuronal translational regulator, and implicate these proteins in coordinate regulation of neuronal morphology and adult viability. We then present the first high-throughput identifications of RNAs associating with Nab2 and Atx2 in Drosophila brain neurons using an RNA immunoprecipitation-sequencing (RIP-Seq) approach. Critically, the RNA interactomes of each RBP overlap. The identities of shared associated transcripts (e.g. drk, me31B, stai) and of transcripts specific to Nab2 or Atx2 (e.g. Arpc2, tea, respectively) promise insight into the neuronal functions of and interactions between each RBP. Significantly, we find Nab2 exhibits high specificity in its RNA associations in neurons in vivo, associating with only a fraction of all polyadenylated RNAs. These Nab2-associated RNAs are overrepresented for internal A-rich motifs, suggesting such sequences may partially mediate Nab2 target selection. Taken together, these data demonstrate 1)Nab2 opposingly regulates neuronal morphology and shares associated neuronal RNAs with Atx2 and 2)Drosophila Nab2 associates with a more specific subset of polyadenylated mRNAs than its polyadenosine affinity alone may suggest.

Project description:Nab2 encodes the Drosophila melanogaster member of a conserved family of zinc finger polyadenosine RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) linked to multiple steps in post-transcriptional regulation. Mutation of the Nab2 human ortholog ZC3H14 gives rise to an autosomal recessive intellectual disability but understanding of Nab2/ZC3H14 function in metazoan nervous systems is limited, in part because no comprehensive identification of metazoan Nab2/ZC3H14-associated RNA transcripts has yet been conducted. Moreover, many Nab2/ZC3H14 functional protein partnerships remain unidentified. Here, we present evidence that Nab2 genetically interacts with Ataxin-2 (Atx2), which encodes a neuronal translational regulator, and that these factors coordinately regulate neuronal morphology, circadian behavior, and adult viability. We then present the first high-throughput identifications of Nab2- and Atx2-associated RNAs in Drosophila brain neurons using RNA immunoprecipitation-sequencing (RIP-Seq). Critically, the RNA interactomes of each RBP overlap, and Nab2 exhibits high specificity in its RNA associations in neurons in vivo, associating with a small fraction of all polyadenylated RNAs. The identities of shared associated transcripts (e.g., drk, me31B, stai) and of transcripts specific to Nab2 or Atx2 (e.g., Arpc2 and tea) promise insight into neuronal functions of, and genetic interactions between, each RBP. Consistent with prior biochemical studies, Nab2-associated neuronal RNAs are overrepresented for internal A-rich motifs, suggesting these sequences may partially mediate Nab2 target selection. These data support a model where Nab2 functionally opposes Atx2 in neurons, demonstrate Nab2 shares associated neuronal RNAs with Atx2, and reveal Drosophila Nab2 associates with a more specific subset of polyadenylated mRNAs than its polyadenosine affinity alone may suggest.

Project description:Gene expression in eukaryotes is an essential process that includes transcription, pre-RNA processing and RNA export. All these steps are coupled and normally, any failure in one step affects the other steps and could cause nuclear mRNA retention. One important player in this interface is the poly(A)-RNA binding protein Nab2, which regulates the poly(A)-tail length of mRNAs protecting their 3’-ends from a second round of polyadenylation and facilitating their nucleo-cytoplasmic export. Interestingly, here we show that Nab2 has additional roles in mRNA transcription elongation, tRNA metabolism and rRNA export. We use Genome-wide analysis of expression of a conditional degron nab2 mutant that allows the depletion of the protein in 15 minutes, to demosntrate that the role of Nab2 in RNAPII transcription and RNAPIII metabolism is not the result of a secondary effect. Our results identify primary targets of nab2 revealing novel functions for Nab2 in transcription and metabolism of most types of RNAs, not only poly(A) mRNAs, indicating that Nab2 function is more ubiquitous than previously anticipated, being a central player in the general and coordinated control of gene expression from transcription elongation to translation initiation.

Project description:We recently identified the RNA targets of Ataxin-2 by using PAR-CLIP. To elucidate the functional role of Ataxin-2 on target-binding, we have knocked down or overexpressed Ataxin-2 in HEK293T cells and extracted RNAs 48 hrs after transfection. Then, these total RNAs were subjected to whole transcripts microarray analysis to examine how the perturbation of Ataxin-2 expression affects target gene expression. Ataxin-2 was either knocked down using siRNA or overexpressed using the expression construct of Halo-Ataxin-2.Control siRNA was transfected as a control of knockdown experiment. The expression construct of Halo-tag alone was used as a control of overexpression experiment. Forty-eight hrs after transfection, total RNAs were extracted and subjected to microarray analysis.

Project description:Transcription profiling was performed on the time course of Nab2 protein depletion in THC-Nab2 strain at 0h, 7h, 12h in biological triplicates to access its affect on the composition and structure of mRNA in budding yeast. For the protein depletion experiment THC-NAB2 (THJ collection Y2484, THC-NAB2:KAN tTA:URA, Open Biosystems) strain was used, where expression of the NAB2 gene is under control of a tetracyclin-repressible promoter.

Project description:We exploit the predictable time course of Drosophila brain development to perform a temporally coupled quantitative proteomic analysis of the pupal brain in Nab2 mutant or overexpression models, which reveals that Nab2 is required to regulate the abundance of a number of proteins with critical roles in Drosophila neurons. Pupal brains lacking Nab2 show dysregulation of proteins, such as Futsch, Turtle, Contactin, and Van Gogh, that typically function in brain morphogenesis, neuroblast proliferation, circadian sleep/wake cycle, and other neurodevelopmental processes. Overall, these data define a role for Nab2 during neurodevelopment in regulating protein abundance for a subset of the brain proteome and provide a window into the potential functions of human ZC3H14 protein.
