Project description:Mammalian early embryonic development involves precisely regulated cell differentiation. Discovering new regulators and profiling their crosstalk have been extensively studied and remain open questions. To identify novel developmental repressors, we established the knockout mouse model of Dis3, an RNA exosome associated RNase. Homozygous Dis3 null embryos have morula-to-blastocyst transition arrest and they lack cell differentiation. By single embryo RNA-seq, we identified Pou6f1 accumulation by DIS3 depletion. Sustained POU6F1 binds and represses the transcription of Nanog and Cdx2. In addition, a broader role of POU6F1 in cell fate transition is also revealed from derived mouse embryonic stem cells. We also tested DIS3 mutations and discovered their effects in causing cell transformation. Our findings uncover a new regulatory pathway of DIS3-POU6F1 in regulating pre-implantation cell differentiation in early mammalian embryogenesis.

Project description:Mammalian development is precisely controlled by cell differentiation. Identifying new regulators and investigating their interactions provide insight into genetic networks defining pre-implantation development. We established a knockout mouse model of Dis3, an exosome associated ribonuclease. Homozygous Dis3 null embryos arrest at the morula stage of development. Using single-embryo RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), we observed persistence of Pou6f1 mRNA in homozygous null Dis3 embryos and that the cognate protein represses transcription of Nanog and Cdx2. The resultant defects in cell differentiation disrupt the morula-to-blastocyst transition and are embryonic lethal. Microinjection of Dis3 mRNA into zygotes rescues the phenotype. Point mutations of Dis3 ribonuclease in individual blastomeres prevents their incorporation into embryos. To overcome the paucity of embryos, we derived homozygous Dis3 null mouse embryonic stem cells to identify additional gene targets of POU6F1. Our findings delineate a regulatory pathway of DIS3-POU6F1 in pre-implantation mammalian embryogenesis.

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) self-renewal and differentiation are the foundation for continious spermatognenesis in mice. Here, we investigate the essential role of DIS3 in maintaining SSC homeostasis and facilitating germ cell differentiation to ensure male fertility. Conditional inactivation of DIS3 in male germ cells have severely impaired SSC self-renewal and differentiation, which results in the failure of spermatogenesis associated with a Sertoli cell-only syndrome and adult sterility. RNA-seq analysis reveales that Dis3 deficiency abolishes its nucleolytic activity and causes significant dysregulation of the expression of transcripts in Dis3 mutant testes. We have also found that the pervasive transcription products described previously, such as Promoter Upstream Transcripts (PROMPTs), accumulate robustly upon DIS3 dysfunction in Dis3 cKO testes. In addition, scRNA-seq analysis indicates that DIS3 mutation significantly impairs germline stem cell development that blocks stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Overall, we show that DIS3 ribonuclease plays a critical role in the maintenance of spermatogenic lineage during spermatogenesis in mice.

Project description:Somatic mutations affecting DIS3, the catalytic component of the RNA exosome, have been found in up to 18% of patients affected by the hematological cancer multiple myeloma. Here we show that DIS3 targets and degrades the pluripotency factor LIN28B. In cancer cells, DIS3 inactivation leads to enhanced LIN28B expression, thus disrupting the let-7 miRNAs tumor suppressor network and ultimately increasing protein levels of crucial oncogenes such as MYC and RAS. DIS3 represents the catalytic component of the exosome. The exosome is required for cell viability and targets several RNA species, including pre-mRNAs, pre-tRNAs, pre-rRNAs, snRNAs and snoRNAs. To gain insight on the macular wiring underlying DIS3 activity in mammalian cells, we comprehensively evaluated expression profiles, including miRNAs, in various cell lines, upon DIS3 knockdown.

This series of microarray experiments contains the miRNA expression profiles of independent replicates of RPMI-8226, KMS12-BM multiple myeloma cell lines and HEK-293T cells, knocked-down with a scrambled or hDIS3 sh4 and collected 72 hours after infection. 500 nanograms of total RNA were processed using the FlashTag labeling kit, which uses a tailing reaction followed by ligation of the biotinylated signal molecule to the target RNA sample. The labelled RNA was then hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip® microRNA arrays v1.0, following the Affymetrix manufacturer's instructions.

Project description:Male germ cell meiosis is essential for generating haploid spermatozoa in mice. Here, we investigate the essential role of DIS3 in male germ cell meiosis in mice. Conditional inactivation of DIS3 in spermatocytes with Stra8-cre transgenic mice have severely impaired meiotic progression, which results in defective meiosis and spermatogenesis. RNA-seq analysis reveals that Dis3 deficiency causes significant dysregulation of the expression of transcripts in mutant testes. Meiosis-associated genes are significantly decreased in the absence of DIS3. Therefore, we show that DIS3 ribonuclease plays a critical role in germ cell meiosis during spermatogenesis in mice.

Project description:The recently proposed exozyme hypothesis posits that subunits of the RNA processing exosome assemble into structurally distinct protein complexes that function in disparate cellular compartments and RNA metabolic pathways. Here, in a genetic test of this hypothesis, we examine the role of Dis3 -- an essential polypeptide with endo- and 3' to 5' exo-ribonuclease activity -- in cell cycle progression. We present several lines of evidence that perturbation of DIS3 affects microtubule (MT) localization and structure in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Cells with a DIS3 mutation: (i) accumulate anaphase and pre-anaphase mitotic spindles; (ii) exhibit spindles that are mis-oriented and displaced from the bud neck; (iii) harbor elongated spindle-associated astral MTs; (iv) have an increased G1 astral MT length and number; and (v) are hypersensitive to MT poisons. Mutations in the core exosome genes RRP4 and MTR3 and the exosome cofactor gene MTR4 -- but not other exosome subunit gene mutants -- also elicit MT phenotypes. RNA deep sequencing analysis (RNA-seq) shows broad changes in the levels of cell cycle- and microtubule-related transcripts in mutant strains. Collectively, the different mitotic phenotypes and distinct sets of mRNAs affected by the exosome subunit and cofactor mutants studied here suggest that Dis3 has a core exosome-independent role(s) in cell cycle progression. These observations are consistent with the predictions of the exozyme hypothesis and also suggest an evolutionarily conserved role for Dis3 in linking RNA metabolism, MTs, and mitotic progression. RNA-seq analysis of total RNA harvested from WT, mtr3-1, mtr4-1, and Dis3^mtr (rrp44-1/mtr17-1) Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains after a temperature shift.
