Cytoplasmic Poly(A) Binding Protein-1 Binds to Genomically Encoded Sequences Within Mammalian mRNAs Abstract The functions of the major mammalian cytoplasmic poly(A) binding protein, PABPC1, have been characterized predominantly in the context of its binding to the 3′ poly(A) tails of mRNAs. These interactions play important roles in post-transcriptional gene regulation by enhancing translation and mRNA stability. Here, we performed transcriptome-wide CLIP-seq analysis to identify additional PABPC1 binding sites within genomically encoded mRNA sequences that may impact on gene regulation. From this analysis, we found that PABPC1 binds directly to the canonical polyadenylation signal in thousands of mRNAs in the mouse transcriptome. PABPC1 binding also maps to translation initiation and termination sites bracketing open reading frames, exemplified most dramatically in replication-dependent histone mRNAs. Additionally, a more restricted subset of PABPC1 interaction sites comprised A-rich sequences within the 5′ UTRs of mRNAs, including Pabpc1 mRNA itself. Functional analyses revealed that these PABPC1 interactions in the 5′ UTR mediate both auto- and trans-regulatory translational control. In total, these findings reveal a repertoire of PABPC1 binding that is substantially broader than previously recognized with a corresponding potential to impact and coordinate post-transcriptional controls critical to a broad array of cellular functions.

However, the role of this process in human disease, and particularly in cancer, is only starting to be unveiled. We system- atically analyzed mutation, copy number, and gene expression patterns of 1348 RNA-binding protein (RBP) genes in 11 solid tumor types, together with alternative splicing changes in these tumors and the enrichment of binding motifs in the alter- natively spliced sequences. Our comprehensive study reveals widespread alterations in the expression of RBP genes, as well as novel mutations and copy number variations in association with multiple alternative splicing changes in cancer drivers and oncogenic pathways. Remarkably, the altered splicing patterns in several tumor types recapitulate those of undifferen- tiated cells. These patterns are predicted to be mainly controlled by MBNL1 and involve multiple cancer drivers, including the mitotic gene NUMA1. We show that NUMA1 alternative splicing induces enhanced cell proliferation and centrosome am- plification in nontumorigenic mammary epithelial cells.

At first, it was thought that the regulation of gene expression particularly occurs at the level of transcription By various transcription factors. Recent discoveries have shown the vital role of gene regulation at the level of RNA also known as post-transcriptional gene regulation (PTGR). Apart from non-coding RNAs e.g. micro RNAs, various RNA Binding proteins (RBPs) play essential role in PTGR. RBPs have been implicated in different stages of mRNA life cycle ranging from splicing, processing, transport, localization and decay. In last 20 years studies have shown the presence of hundreds of RBPs across eukaryotic systems many of which are widely conserved. Given the rising numBer of RBPs and their link to human diseases it is quite evident that RBPs have major role in cellular processes and their regulation.

  • A SARS-Cov-2-Human Protein-Protein Interaction Map Reveals Drug Targets and Potential Drug-Repurposing
    A SARS-CoV-2-Human Protein-Protein Interaction Map Reveals Drug Targets and Potential Drug-Repurposing Supplementary Information Supplementary Discussion All SARS-CoV-2 protein and gene functions described in the subnetwork appendices, including the text below and the text found in the individual bait subnetworks, are based on the functions of homologous genes from other coronavirus species. These are mainly from SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, but when available and applicable other related viruses were used to provide insight into function. The SARS-CoV-2 proteins and genes listed here were designed and researched based on the gene alignments provided by Chan et. al. 1 2020 .​ Though we are reasonably sure the genes here are well annotated, we want to note that not every ​ protein has been verified to be expressed or functional during SARS-CoV-2 infections, either in vitro or in vivo. ​ ​ In an effort to be as comprehensive and transparent as possible, we are reporting the sub-networks of these functionally unverified proteins along with the other SARS-CoV-2 proteins. In such cases, we have made notes within the text below, and on the corresponding subnetwork figures, and would advise that more caution be taken when examining these proteins and their molecular interactions. Due to practical limits in our sample preparation and data collection process, we were unable to generate data for proteins corresponding to Nsp3, Orf7b, and Nsp16. Therefore these three genes have been left out of the following literature review of the SARS-CoV-2 proteins and the protein-protein interactions (PPIs) identified in this study.

Expression and subcellular localisation of poly(A)-binding proteins Hannah Burgess PhD The University of Edinburgh 2010 Abstract Poly(A)-binding proteins (PABPs) are important regulators of mRNA translation and stability. In mammals four cytoplasmic PABPs with a similar domain structure have been described - PABP1, tPABP, PABP4 and ePABP. The vast majority of research on PABP mechanism, function and sub-cellular localisation is however limited to PABP1 and little published work has explored the expression of PABP proteins. Here, I examine the tissue distribution of PABP1 and PABP4 in mouse and show that both proteins differ markedly in their expression at both the tissue and cellular level, contradicting the widespread perception that PABP1 is ubiquitously expressed. PABP4 is shown to be widely expressed though with an expression pattern distinct from PABP1, and thus may have a biological function in many tissues.

  • Investigation of RNA Binding Proteins Regulated by Mtor
    Investigation of RNA binding proteins regulated by mTOR Thesis submitted to the University of Leicester for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Katherine Morris BSc (University of Leicester) March 2017 1 Investigation of RNA binding proteins regulated by mTOR Katherine Morris, MRC Toxicology Unit, University of Leicester, Leicester, LE1 9HN The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine protein kinase which plays a key role in the transduction of cellular energy signals, in order to coordinate and regulate a wide number of processes including cell growth and proliferation via control of protein synthesis and protein degradation. For a number of human diseases where mTOR signalling is dysregulated, including cancer, the clinical relevance of mTOR inhibitors is clear. However, understanding of the mechanisms by which mTOR controls gene expression is incomplete, with implications for adverse toxicological effects of mTOR inhibitors on clinical outcomes. mTOR has been shown to regulate 5’ TOP mRNA expression, though the exact mechanism remains unclear. It has been postulated that this may involve an intermediary factor such as an RNA binding protein, which acts downstream of mTOR signalling to bind and regulate translation or stability of specific messages. This thesis aimed to address this question through the use of whole cell RNA binding protein capture using oligo‐d(T) affinity isolation and subsequent proteomic analysis, and identify RNA binding proteins with differential binding activity following mTOR inhibition. Following validation of 4 identified mTOR‐dependent RNA binding proteins, characterisation of their specific functions with respect to growth and survival was conducted through depletion studies, identifying a promising candidate for further work; LARP1.

Many case studies detected EBOV in the CSF, suggesting that the neurologic sequelae in survivors is related to viral presence. In the periphery, EBOV infects endothelial cells and triggers a “cytokine stormâ€. However, it is unclear whether a similar process occurs in the brain, with secondary neuroinflammation, neuronal loss and blood-brain barrier (BBB) compromise, eventually leading to lasting neurological damage. We have used in vivo imaging and post-necropsy immunostaining to elucidate the CNS pathophysiology in Rhesus macaques infected with EBOV (Makona). Whole brain MRI with T1 relaxometry (pre- and post-contrast) and FDG-PET were performed to monitor the progression of disease in two cohorts of EBOV infected macaques from baseline to terminal endpoint (day 5-6). Post-necropsy, multiplex fluorescence immunohistochemical (MF-IHC) staining for various cellular markers in the thalamus and brainstem was performed. Serial blood and CSF samples were collected to assess disease progression. The linear mixed effect model was used for statistical analysis. Post-infection, we first detected EBOV in the serum (day 3) and CSF (day 4) with dramatic increases until euthanasia. The standard uptake values of FDG-PET relative to whole brain uptake (SUVr) in the midbrain, pons, and thalamus increased significantly over time (p<0.01) and positively correlated with blood viremia (p≤0.01).
