Abstract
mRNAs interact with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) throughout their processing and maturation. While efforts have assigned RBPs to RNA substrates, less exploration has leveraged protein-protein interactions (PPIs) to study proteins in mRNA life-cycle stages. We generated an RNA-aware, RBP-centric PPI map across the mRNA life cycle in human cells by immunopurification-mass spectrometry (IP-MS) of ∼100 endogenous RBPs with and without RNase, augmented by size exclusion chromatography-mass spectrometry (SEC-MS). We identify 8,742 known and 20,802 unreported interactions between 1,125 proteins and determine that 73% of the IP-MS-identified interactions are RNA regulated. Our interactome links many proteins, some with unknown functions, to specific mRNA life-cycle stages, with nearly half associated with multiple stages. We demonstrate the value of this resource by characterizing the splicing and export functions of enhancer of rudimentary homolog (ERH), and by showing that small nuclear ribonucleoprotein U5 subunit 200 (SNRNP200) interacts with stress granule proteins and binds cytoplasmic RNA differently during stress.

Abstract
Targeted protein degradation and induced proximity refer to strategies that leverage the recruitment of proteins to facilitate their modification, regulation or degradation. As prospective design of glues remains challenging, unbiased discovery methods are needed to unveil hidden chemical targets. Here we establish a high throughput affinity purification mass spectrometry workflow in cell lysates for the unbiased identification of molecular glue targets. By mapping the targets of 20 CRBN-binding molecular glues, we identify 298 protein targets and demonstrate the utility of enrichment methods for identifying novel targets overlooked using established methods. We use a computational workflow to estimate target confidence and perform a biochemical screen to identify a lead compound for the new non-ZF target PPIL4. Our study provides a comprehensive inventory of targets chemically recruited to CRBN and delivers a robust and scalable workflow for identifying new drug-induced protein interactions in cell lysates.

Abstract
Structured RNAs often contain long-range tertiary contacts that are critical to their function. Despite the importance of tertiary contacts, methods to measure their thermodynamics are low throughput or require specialized instruments. Here, we introduce a new quantitative chemical mapping method (qMaPseq) to measure Mg2+-induced formation of tertiary contact thermodynamics in a high-throughput manner using standard biochemistry equipment. With qMaPseq, we measured the ΔG of 98 unique tetraloop/tetraloop receptor (TL/TLR) variants in a one-pot reaction. These results agree well with measurements from specialized instruments (R2= 0.64). Furthermore, the DMS reactivity of the TL directly correlates to the stability of the contact (R2= 0.68), the first direct evidence that a single DMS reactivity measurement reports on thermodynamics. Combined with structure prediction, DMS reactivity allowed the development of experimentally accurate 3D models of TLR mutants. These results demonstrate that qMaPseq is broadly accessible, high-throughput and directly links DMS reactivity to thermodynamics.

Abstract
The ability of a cell to properly express its genes depends on optimal transcription and splicing. RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcribes protein-coding genes and produces pre-mRNAs, which undergo, largely co-transcriptionally, intron excision by the spliceosome complex. Spliceosome activation is a major control step, leading to a catalytically active complex. Recent work has showed that cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)11 regulates spliceosome activation via the phosphorylation of SF3B1, a core spliceosome component. Thus, CDK11 arises as a major coordinator of gene expression in metazoans due to its role in the rate-limiting step of pre-mRNA splicing. This review outlines the evolution of CDK11 and SF3B1 and their emerging roles in splicing regulation. It also discusses how CDK11 and its inhibition affect transcription and cell cycle progression.

Abstract
Alternative mRNA splicing enables the diversification of the proteome from a static genome and confers plasticity and adaptiveness on cells. Although this is often explored in development, where hard-wired programs drive the differentiation and specialization, alternative mRNA splicing also offers a way for cells to react to sudden changes in outside stimuli such as small-molecule metabolites. Fluctuations in metabolite levels and availability in particular convey crucial information to which cells react and adapt. We summarize and highlight findings surrounding the metabolic regulation of mRNA splicing. We discuss the principles underlying the biochemistry and biophysical properties of mRNA splicing, and propose how these could intersect with metabolite levels. Further, we present examples in which metabolites directly influence RNA-binding proteins and splicing factors. We also discuss the interplay between alternative mRNA splicing and metabolite-responsive signaling pathways. We hope to inspire future research to obtain a holistic picture of alternative mRNA splicing in response to metabolic cues.

Abstract
The spliceosome executes pre-mRNA splicing through four sequential stages: assembly, activation, catalysis, and disassembly. Activation of the spliceosome, namely remodeling of the pre-catalytic spliceosome (B complex) into the activated spliceosome (Bact complex) and the catalytically activated spliceosome (B* complex), involves major flux of protein components and structural rearrangements. Relying on a splicing inhibitor, we have captured six intermediate states between the B and B* complexes: pre-Bact, Bact-I, Bact-II, Bact-III, Bact-IV, and post-Bact. Their cryo-EM structures, together with an improved structure of the catalytic step I spliceosome (C complex), reveal how the catalytic center matures around the internal stem loop of U6 snRNA, how the branch site approaches 5'-splice site, how the RNA helicase PRP2 rearranges to bind pre-mRNA, and how U2 snRNP undergoes remarkable movement to facilitate activation. We identify a previously unrecognized key role of PRP2 in spliceosome activation. Our study recapitulates a molecular choreography of the human spliceosome during its catalytic activation.

Abstract
Pre-mRNA splicing, the removal of introns and ligation of flanking exons, is a crucial step in eukaryotic gene expression. The spliceosome, a macromolecular complex made up of five small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) and dozens of proteins, assembles on introns via a complex pathway before catalyzing the two transesterification reactions necessary for splicing. All of these steps have the potential to be highly regulated to ensure correct mRNA isoform production for proper cellular function. While Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) has a limited set of intron-containing genes, many of these genes are highly expressed, resulting in a large number of transcripts in a cell being spliced. As a result, splicing regulation is of critical importance for yeast. Just as in humans, yeast splicing can be influenced by protein components of the splicing machinery, structures and properties of the pre-mRNA itself, or by the action of trans-acting factors. It is likely that further analysis of the mechanisms and pathways of splicing regulation in yeast can reveal general principles applicable to other eukaryotes. This article is categorized under: RNA Processing > Splicing Mechanisms RNA Processing > Splicing Regulation/Alternative Splicing.

Abstract
The spliceosome catalyzes the splicing of pre-mRNAs. Although the spliceosome evolved from a prokaryotic self-splicing intron and an associated protein, it is a vastly more complex and dynamic ribonucleoprotein (RNP) whose function requires at least eight ATPases and multiple RNA rearrangements. These features afford stepwise opportunities for multiple inspections of the intron substrate, coupled with spliceosome disassembly for substrates that fail inspection. Early work using splicing-defective pre-mRNAs or small nuclear (sn)RNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae demonstrated that such checks could occur in catalytically active spliceosomes. We review recent results on pre-mRNA splicing in various systems, including humans, suggesting that earlier steps in spliceosome assembly are also subject to such quality control. The inspection-rejection framework helps explain the dynamic nature of the spliceosome.

Abstract
Precise control of protein ubiquitination is essential for brain development, and hence, disruption of ubiquitin signaling networks can lead to neurological disorders. Mutations of the deubiquitinase USP7 cause the Hao-Fountain syndrome (HAFOUS), characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, autism, and aggressive behavior. Here, we report that conditional deletion of USP7 in excitatory neurons in the mouse forebrain triggers diverse phenotypes including sensorimotor deficits, learning and memory impairment, and aggressive behavior, resembling clinical features of HAFOUS. USP7 deletion induces neuronal apoptosis in a manner dependent of the tumor suppressor p53. However, most behavioral abnormalities in USP7 conditional mice persist despite p53 loss. Strikingly, USP7 deletion in the brain perturbs the synaptic proteome and dendritic spine morphogenesis independently of p53. Integrated proteomics analysis reveals that the neuronal USP7 interactome is enriched for proteins implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders and specifically identifies the RNA splicing factor Ppil4 as a novel neuronal substrate of USP7. Knockdown of Ppil4 in cortical neurons impairs dendritic spine morphogenesis, phenocopying the effect of USP7 loss on dendritic spines. These findings reveal a novel USP7-Ppil4 ubiquitin signaling link that regulates neuronal connectivity in the developing brain, with implications for our understanding of the pathogenesis of HAFOUS and other neurodevelopmental disorders.

Abstract
The Prp19 complex (Prp19C), also named NineTeen Complex (NTC), is conserved from yeast to human and functions in many different processes such as genome stability, splicing, and transcription elongation. In the latter, Prp19C ensures TREX occupancy at transcribed genes. TREX, in turn, couples transcription to nuclear mRNA export by recruiting the mRNA exporter to transcribed genes and consequently to nascent mRNAs. Here, we assess the function of the nonessential Prp19C subunit Syf2 and the nonessential Prp19C-associated protein Cwc15 in the interaction of Prp19C and TREX with the transcription machinery, Prp19C and TREX occupancy, and transcription elongation. Whereas both proteins are important for Prp19C-TREX interaction, Syf2 is needed for full Prp19C occupancy, and Cwc15 is important for the interaction of Prp19C with RNA polymerase II and TREX occupancy. These partially overlapping functions are corroborated by a genetic interaction between Δcwc15 and Δsyf2 Finally, Cwc15 also interacts genetically with the transcription elongation factor Dst1 and functions in transcription elongation. In summary, we uncover novel roles of the Prp19C component Syf2 and the Prp19C-associated protein Cwc15 in Prp19C's function in transcription elongation.

RNA (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2024; 30:404-417.

Abstract
RNA helicases drive necessary rearrangements and ensure fidelity during the pre-mRNA splicing cycle. DEAD-box helicase DDX41 has been linked to human disease and has recently been shown to interact with DEAH-box helicase PRP22 in the spliceosomal C* complex, yet its function in splicing remains unknown. Depletion of DDX41 homolog SACY-1 from somatic cells has been previously shown to lead to changes in alternative 3' splice site (3'ss) usage. Here, we show by transcriptomic analysis of published and novel data sets that SACY-1 perturbation causes a previously unreported pattern in alternative 3' splicing in introns with pairs of 3' splice sites ≤18 nt away from each other. We find that both SACY-1 depletion and the allele sacy-1(G533R) lead to a striking unidirectional increase in the usage of the proximal (upstream) 3'ss. We previously discovered a similar alternative splicing pattern between germline tissue and somatic tissue, in which there is a unidirectional increase in proximal 3'ss usage in the germline for ∼200 events; many of the somatic SACY-1 alternative 3' splicing events overlap with these developmentally regulated events. We generated targeted mutant alleles of the Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of PRP22, mog-5, in the region of MOG-5 that is predicted to interact with SACY-1 based on the human C* structure. These viable alleles, and a mimic of the myelodysplastic syndrome-associated allele DDX41(R525H), all promote the usage of proximal alternative adjacent 3' splice sites. We show that PRP22/MOG-5 and DDX41/SACY-1 have overlapping roles in proofreading the 3'ss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute hepatitis is a progressive inflammatory disorder that can lead to liver failure. Endothelial permeability is the vital pathophysiological change involved in infiltrating inflammatory factors. DDX24 has been implicated in immune signaling. However, the precise role of DDX24 in immune-mediated hepatitis remains unclear. Here, we investigate the phenotype of endothelium-targeted Ddx24 conditional knockout mice with Concanavalin A (ConA)-induced hepatitis. METHODS Mice with homozygous endothelium-targeted Ddx24 conditional knockout (Ddx24flox/flox; Cdh5-Cre+) were established using the CRISPR/Cas9 mediated Cre-loxP system. We investigated the biological functions of endothelial cells derived from transgenic mice and explored the effects of Ddx24 in mice with ConA-induced hepatitis in vivo. The mass spectrometry was performed to identify the differentially expressed proteins in liver tissues of transgenic mice. RESULT We successfully established mice with endothelium-targeted Ddx24 conditional knockout. The results showed migration and tube formation potentials of murine aortic endothelial cells with DDX24 silencing were significantly promoted. No differences were observed between Ddx24flox/flox; Cdh5-Cre+ and control regarding body weight and length, pathological tissue change and embryogenesis. We demonstrated Ddx24flox/flox; Cdh5-Cre+ exhibited exacerbation of ConA-induced hepatitis by up-regulating TNF-α and IFN-γ. Furthermore, endothelium-targeted Ddx24 conditional knockout caused vascular hyper-permeability in ConA-injected mice by down-regulating vascular integrity-associated proteins. Mechanistically, we identified Ddx24 might regulate immune-mediated hepatitis by inflammation-related permeable barrier pathways. CONCLUSION These findings prove that endothelium-targeted Ddx24 conditional knockout exacerbates ConA-induced hepatitis in mice because of vascular hyper-permeability. The findings indicate a crucial role of DDX24 in regulating immune-mediated hepatitis, suggesting DDX24 as a potential therapeutic target in the disorder.

EMBO J 2024; 43:1065-1088. [PMID: 38383864 PMCID: PMC10943123 DOI: 10.1038/s44318-024-00052-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024] Open
Abstract
The B complex is a key intermediate stage of spliceosome assembly. To improve the structural resolution of monomeric, human spliceosomal B (hB) complexes and thereby generate a more comprehensive hB molecular model, we determined the cryo-EM structure of B complex dimers formed in the presence of ATP γ S. The enhanced resolution of these complexes allows a finer molecular dissection of how the 5' splice site (5'ss) is recognized in hB, and new insights into molecular interactions of FBP21, SNU23 and PRP38 with the U6/5'ss helix and with each other. It also reveals that SMU1 and RED are present as a heterotetrameric complex and are located at the interface of the B dimer protomers. We further show that MFAP1 and UBL5 form a 5' exon binding channel in hB, and elucidate the molecular contacts stabilizing the 5' exon at this stage. Our studies thus yield more accurate models of protein and RNA components of hB complexes. They further allow the localization of additional proteins and protein domains (such as SF3B6, BUD31 and TCERG1) whose position was not previously known, thereby uncovering new functions for B-specific and other hB proteins during pre-mRNA splicing.

Abstract
Pre-mRNA splicing is surveilled at different stages by quality control (QC) mechanisms. The leukemia-associated DExH-box family helicase hDHX15/scPrp43 is known to disassemble spliceosomes after splicing. Here, using rapid protein depletion and analysis of nascent and mature RNA to enrich for direct effects, we identify a widespread splicing QC function for DHX15 in human cells, consistent with recent in vitro studies. We find that suboptimal introns with weak splice sites, multiple branch points, and cryptic introns are repressed by DHX15, suggesting a general role in promoting splicing fidelity. We identify SUGP1 as a G-patch factor that activates DHX15's splicing QC function. This interaction is dependent on both DHX15's ATPase activity and on SUGP1's U2AF ligand motif (ULM) domain. Together, our results support a model in which DHX15 plays a major role in splicing QC when recruited and activated by SUGP1.

Abstract
Splicing of precursor mRNAs is a hallmark of eukaryotic cells, performed by a huge macromolecular machine, the spliceosome. Four DEAH-box ATPases are essential components of the spliceosome, which play an important role in the spliceosome activation, the splicing reaction, the release of the spliced mRNA and intron lariat, and the disassembly of the spliceosome. An integrative approach comprising X-ray crystallography, single particle cryo electron microscopy, single molecule FRET, and molecular dynamics simulations provided deep insights into the structure, dynamics and function of the spliceosomal DEAH-box ATPases.

Abstract
Messenger RNAs (mRNAs) interact with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) in diverse ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) during distinct life-cycle stages for their processing and maturation. While substantial attention has focused on understanding RNA regulation by assigning proteins, particularly RBPs, to specific RNA substrates, there has been considerably less exploration leveraging protein-protein interaction (PPI) methodologies to identify and study the role of proteins in mRNA life-cycle stages. To address this gap, we generated an RNA-aware RBP-centric PPI map across the mRNA life-cycle by immunopurification (IP-MS) of ~100 endogenous RBPs across the life-cycle in the presence or absence of RNase, augmented by size exclusion chromatography (SEC-MS). Aside from confirming 8,700 known and discovering 20,359 novel interactions between 1125 proteins, we determined that 73% of our IP interactions are regulated by the presence of RNA. Our PPI data enables us to link proteins to life-cycle stage functions, highlighting that nearly half of the proteins participate in at least two distinct stages. We show that one of the most highly interconnected proteins, ERH, engages in multiple RNA processes, including via interactions with nuclear speckles and the mRNA export machinery. We also demonstrate that the spliceosomal protein SNRNP200 participates in distinct stress granule-associated RNPs and occupies different RNA target regions in the cytoplasm during stress. Our comprehensive RBP-focused PPI network is a novel resource for identifying multi-stage RBPs and exploring RBP complexes in RNA maturation.

Abstract
Small Nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are an abundant group of non-coding RNAs with well-defined roles in ribosomal RNA processing, folding and chemical modification. Besides their classic roles in ribosome biogenesis, snoRNAs are also implicated in several other cellular activities including regulation of splicing, transcription, RNA editing, cellular trafficking, and miRNA-like functions. Mature snoRNAs must undergo a series of processing steps tightly regulated by transiently associating factors and coordinated with other cellular processes including transcription and splicing. In addition to their mature forms, snoRNAs can contribute to gene expression regulation through their derivatives and degradation products. Here, we review the current knowledge on mechanisms of snoRNA maturation, including the different pathways of processing, and the regulatory mechanisms that control snoRNA levels and complex assembly. We also discuss the significance of studying snoRNA maturation, highlight the gaps in the current knowledge and suggest directions for future research in this area.

Abstract
Precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) splicing is an essential step in human gene expression and is carried out by a large macromolecular machine called the spliceosome. Given the spliceosome's role in shaping the cellular transcriptome, it is not surprising that mutations in the splicing machinery can result in a range of human diseases and disorders (spliceosomopathies). This review serves as an introduction into the main features of the pre-mRNA splicing machinery in humans and how changes in the function of its components can lead to diseases ranging from blindness to cancers. Recently, several drugs have been developed that interact directly with this machinery to change splicing outcomes at either the single gene or transcriptome-scale. We discuss the mechanism of action of several drugs that perturb splicing in unique ways. Finally, we speculate on what the future may hold in the emerging area of spliceosomopathies and spliceosome-targeted treatments.
