    Prevalence and Significance of Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay Coupled with Alternative Splicing in Diverse Eukaryotic Organisms By Courtney Elizabeth French A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Molecular and Cell Biology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Steven E. Brenner, Co-Chair Professor Donald C. Rio, Co-Chair Professor Britt A. Glaunsinger Professor Sandrine Dudoit Spring 2016 Prevalence and Significance of Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay Coupled with Alternative Splicing in Diverse Eukaryotic Organisms Copyright 2016 by Courtney Elizabeth French Abstract Prevalence and Significance of Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay Coupled with Alternative Splicing in Diverse Eukaryotic Organisms by Courtney Elizabeth French Doctor of Philosophy in Molecular and Cell Biology University of California, Berkeley Professor Steven E. Brenner, Co-Chair Professor Donald C. Rio, Co-Chair Alternative splicing plays a crucial role in increasing the amount of protein diversity and in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. In humans, almost all genes produce more than one mRNA isoform and, while the fraction varies, many other species also have a substantial number of alternatively spliced genes. Alternative splicing is regulated by splicing factors, often in a developmental time- or tissue-specific manner. Mis- regulation of alternative splicing, via mutations in splice sites, splicing regulatory elements, or splicing factors, can lead to disease states, including cancers. Thus, characterizing how alternative splicing shapes the transcriptome will lead to greater insights into the regulation of numerous cellular pathways and many aspects of human health. A critical tool for investigating alternative splicing is high-throughput mRNA sequencing (RNA-seq).

Some of the best-characterized the proteomic and functional diversity of eukaryotes is achieved. splicing regulators include the serine-arginine (SR)-rich family, However, the complex nature of the splicing machinery, its associated heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) proteins, and splicing regulators and the functional implications of alternatively the Nova1 and Nova2, and the PTB and nPTB (also known as spliced transcripts are only poorly understood. Here, we investigated PTBP1 and PTBP2) families (David and Manley, 2008; Gabut et al., the functional role of the splicing regulator rbfox1 in vivo using the 2008; Li et al., 2007; Matlin et al., 2005). The diversity in splicing is zebrafish as a model system. We found that loss of rbfox1 led to further increased by the location and nucleotide sequence of pre- progressive cardiac contractile dysfunction and heart failure. By using mRNA enhancer and silencer motifs that either promote or inhibit deep-transcriptome sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR, we splicing by the different regulators. Adding to this complexity, show that depletion of rbfox1 in zebrafish results in an altered isoform regulating motifs are very common throughout the genome, but are expression of several crucial target genes, such as actn3a and hug.

  • Inhibition of the MID1 Protein Complex
    Matthes et al. Cell Death Discovery (2018) 4:4 DOI 10.1038/s41420-017-0003-8 Cell Death Discovery ARTICLE Open Access Inhibition of the MID1 protein complex: a novel approach targeting APP protein synthesis Frank Matthes1,MoritzM.Hettich1, Judith Schilling1, Diana Flores-Dominguez1, Nelli Blank1, Thomas Wiglenda2, Alexander Buntru2,HannaWolf1, Stephanie Weber1,InaVorberg 1, Alina Dagane2, Gunnar Dittmar2,3,ErichWanker2, Dan Ehninger1 and Sybille Krauss1 Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by two neuropathological hallmarks: senile plaques, which are composed of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides, and neurofibrillary tangles, which are composed of hyperphosphorylated tau protein. Aβ peptides are derived from sequential proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). In this study, we identified a so far unknown mode of regulation of APP protein synthesis involving the MID1 protein complex: MID1 binds to and regulates the translation of APP mRNA. The underlying mode of action of MID1 involves the mTOR pathway. Thus, inhibition of the MID1 complex reduces the APP protein level in cultures of primary neurons. Based on this, we used one compound that we discovered previously to interfere with the MID1 complex, metformin, for in vivo experiments. Indeed, long-term treatment with metformin decreased APP protein expression levels and consequently Aβ in an AD mouse model. Importantly, we have initiated the metformin treatment late in life, at a time-point where mice were in an already progressed state of the disease, and could observe an improved behavioral phenotype. These 1234567890 1234567890 findings together with our previous observation, showing that inhibition of the MID1 complex by metformin also decreases tau phosphorylation, make the MID1 complex a particularly interesting drug target for treating AD.

  • Bioinformatics Tools for the Analysis of Gene-Phenotype Relationships Coupled with a Next Generation Chip-Sequencing Data Processing Pipeline
    Bioinformatics Tools for the Analysis of Gene-Phenotype Relationships Coupled with a Next Generation ChIP-Sequencing Data Processing Pipeline Erinija Pranckeviciene Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in Cellular and Molecular Medicine Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine Faculty of Medicine University of Ottawa c Erinija Pranckeviciene, Ottawa, Canada, 2015 Abstract The rapidly advancing high-throughput and next generation sequencing technologies facilitate deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the expression of phenotypes in living organisms. Experimental data and scientific publications following this technological advance- ment have rapidly accumulated in public databases. Meaningful analysis of currently avail- able data in genomic databases requires sophisticated computational tools and algorithms, and presents considerable challenges to molecular biologists without specialized training in bioinfor- matics. To study their phenotype of interest molecular biologists must prioritize large lists of poorly characterized genes generated in high-throughput experiments. To date, prioritization tools have primarily been designed to work with phenotypes of human diseases as defined by the genes known to be associated with those diseases. There is therefore a need for more prioritiza- tion tools for phenotypes which are not related with diseases generally or diseases with which no genes have yet been associated in particular. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by next generation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) is a method of choice to study the gene regulation processes responsible for the expression of cellular phenotypes. Among publicly available computational pipelines for the processing of ChIP-Seq data, there is a lack of tools for the downstream analysis of composite motifs and preferred binding distances of the DNA binding proteins.

Please note: The pan-cancer molecular signatures disclosed in this article are the results of applying our data mining algorithm to the rich TCGA “pancan12” data sets from twelve different cancer types. These signatures have been identified as patterns, without any indication about their arXiv:1306.2584v2 [q-bio.QM] 11 Jul 2013 role or potential usefulness. We believe that each of them represents an important biomolecular event in cancer. We invite the cancer research community to contact us and help us interpret each of these pan-cancer signatures, and to investigate them for potential applications in diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic products applicable to multiple cancer types. There will be additional versions of this article and we expect that the final version will contain many co-authors. 1 Although cancer is known to be characterized by several unifying biological hallmarks, systems biology has had limited success in identifying molecular signatures present in in all types of cancer.

  • C9orf72-Associated SMCR8 Protein Binds in the Ubiquitin Pathway and with Proteins Linked with Neurological Disease John L
    Goodier et al. Acta Neuropathologica Communications (2020) 8:110 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40478-020-00982-x RESEARCH Open Access C9orf72-associated SMCR8 protein binds in the ubiquitin pathway and with proteins linked with neurological disease John L. Goodier1*, Alisha O. Soares1, Gavin C. Pereira1, Lauren R. DeVine2, Laura Sanchez3, Robert N. Cole2 and Jose Luis García-Pérez3,4 Abstract A pathogenic GGGCCC hexanucleotide expansion in the first intron/promoter region of the C9orf72 gene is the most common mutation associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The C9orf72 gene product forms a complex with SMCR8 (Smith-Magenis Syndrome Chromosome Region, Candidate 8) and WDR41 (WD Repeat domain 41) proteins. Recent studies have indicated roles for the complex in autophagy regulation, vesicle trafficking, and immune response in transgenic mice, however a direct connection with ALS etiology remains unclear. With the aim of increasing understanding of the multi-functional C9orf72-SMCR8-WDR41 complex, we determined by mass spectrometry analysis the proteins that directly associate with SMCR8. SMCR8 protein binds many components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, and we demonstrate its poly-ubiquitination without obvious degradation. Evidence is also presented for localization of endogenous SMCR8 protein to cytoplasmic stress granules. However, in several cell lines we failed to reproduce previous observations that C9orf72 protein enters these granules. SMCR8 protein associates with many products of genes associated with various Mendelian neurological disorders in addition to ALS, implicating SMCR8-containing complexes in a range of neuropathologies. We reinforce previous observations that SMCR8 and C9orf72 protein levels are positively linked, and now show in vivo that SMCR8 protein levels are greatly reduced in brain tissues of C9orf72 gene expansion carrier individuals.

  • LUC7L3/CROP Inhibits Replication of Hepatitis B Virus Via Suppressing Enhancer II/Basal Core Promoter Activity
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN LUC7L3/CROP inhibits replication of hepatitis B virus via suppressing enhancer II/basal core promoter Received: 27 May 2016 Accepted: 20 October 2016 activity Published: 18 NOvember 2016 Yuan Li, Masahiko Ito, Suofeng Sun, Takeshi Chida, Kenji Nakashima & Tetsuro Suzuki The core promoter of hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome is a critical region for transcriptional initiation of 3.5 kb, pregenome and precore RNAs and for the viral replication. Although a number of host-cell factors that potentially regulate the viral promoter activities have been identified, the molecular mechanisms of the viral gene expression, in particular, regulatory mechanisms of the transcriptional repression remain elusive. In this study, we identified LUC7 like 3 pre-mRNA splicing factor (LUC7L3, also known as hLuc7A or CROP) as a novel interacting partner of HBV enhancer II and basal core promoter (ENII/BCP), key elements within the core promoter, through the proteomic screening and found that LUC7L3 functions as a negative regulator of ENII/BCP. Gene silencing of LUC7L3 significantly increased expression of the viral genes and antigens as well as the activities of ENII/BCP and core promoter. In contrast, overexpression of LUC7L3 inhibited their activities and HBV replication. In addition, LUC7L3 possibly contributes to promotion of the splicing of 3.5 kb RNA, which may also be involved in negative regulation of the pregenome RNA level. This is the first to demonstrate the involvement of LUC7L3 in regulation of gene transcription and in viral replication. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major cause of acute and chronic hepatitis and is closely associated with development of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) worldwide.

  • Changes in the Gene Expression Profile During Spontaneous Migraine Attacks
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Changes in the gene expression profle during spontaneous migraine attacks Lisette J. A. Kogelman1,7*, Katrine Falkenberg1,7, Alfonso Buil2, Pau Erola3, Julie Courraud4, Susan Svane Laursen4, Tom Michoel5, Jes Olesen1 & Thomas F. Hansen1,2,6* Migraine attacks are delimited, allowing investigation of changes during and outside attack. Gene expression fuctuates according to environmental and endogenous events and therefore, we hypothesized that changes in RNA expression during and outside a spontaneous migraine attack exist which are specifc to migraine. Twenty-seven migraine patients were assessed during a spontaneous migraine attack, including headache characteristics and treatment efect. Blood samples were taken during attack, two hours after treatment, on a headache-free day and after a cold pressor test. RNA- Sequencing, genotyping, and steroid profling were performed. RNA-Sequences were analyzed at gene level (diferential expression analysis) and at network level, and genomic and transcriptomic data were integrated. We found 29 diferentially expressed genes between ‘attack’ and ‘after treatment’, after subtracting non-migraine specifc genes, that were functioning in fatty acid oxidation, signaling pathways and immune-related pathways. Network analysis revealed mechanisms afected by changes in gene interactions, e.g. ‘ion transmembrane transport’. Integration of genomic and transcriptomic data revealed pathways related to sumatriptan treatment, i.e. ‘5HT1 type receptor mediated signaling pathway’. In conclusion, we uniquely investigated intra-individual changes in gene expression during a migraine attack. We revealed both genes and pathways potentially involved in the pathophysiology of migraine and/or migraine treatment. With a world-wide prevalence of 14.4% and global estimates of 5.6 years lost to disability, migraine is placed as the 2nd most disabling disease by the World Health Organization 1.
