项目摘要
Project Summary
In eukaryotic organisms, transcribed RNA is processed from precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) into
mature RNA in a process known as splicing. During this RNA processing mechanism, the non-coding regions of
pre-mRNA are removed, and the flanking regions are joined by a large molecular machine known as the
spliceosome. Spliceosomes do not exist pre-assembled into splicing active conformations. Instead, splice sites
(SS) are specifically chosen through the stepwise assembly of five small nuclear ribonuclear protein complexes
consisting of a small nuclear RNA and a large number of associated proteins. These spliceosome assemblies
are charged with correctly identifying and juxtaposing splice sites that are not explicitly sequence encoded in the
pre-mRNA. Adding to the complexity of splice site selection, >90-95% of human pre-mRNAs are alternatively
spliced by varying the configuration of which regions are joined and which are removed from multi-exon
containing genes. Splicing errors associated with alternative usage of splice sites are implicated in a large
number of human diseases such as Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (alternative 5'SS), dilated
cardiomyopathies (alternative 3'SS), Myelodysplastic syndromes (altered 3'SS preference) and early-onset
Parkinson Disease (cryptic splice site usage). Despite decades of research to characterize splicing mechanisms,
the mechanisms that control splice site usage are incompletely understood. To fill this knowledge gap, the long-
term goal of the candidate is to characterize the mechanisms that control splice site selection and the splicing
factors involved. In this project, I propose to investigate protein-driven RNA rearrangements during splicing
catalysis using single-molecule fluorescence microscopy methods through three specific aims. In aim 1, I will
implement a single molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) approach to characterize a conserved
spliceosome rearrangement driven by the Prp22 helicase that leads to displacement of ligated mRNA from a
conserved region in the spliceosome catalytic core, U5 snRNA loop 1. A Prp22 variant will be used to stall
spliceosomes onto a surface immobilized pre-mRNA just after exon ligation but prior to release from the
spliceosome. Prp22-driven displacement of the ligated mRNA will subsequently be monitored using fluorescent
reporters installed on U5 snRNA loop 1 and the RNA substrate, respectively. Specific Aims 2 and 3 propose the
investigation of a human-specific protein, FAM32A, hypothesized to stabilize the interaction between the 5' exon
and U5 loop 1 in order to facilitate ligation to the 3' SS. Together, this work will answer questions about conserved
and metazoan-specific mechanisms involved in the late stages of pre-mRNA splicing catalysis. This project will
advance the applicant's career goal of running an independent laboratory at an academic institution in a way
that combines her graduate training in mechanistic enzymology with her ongoing postdoctoral training in RNA
molecular biology and biophysics to characterize the mechanisms and assembly of complex macromolecular
machines whose proper functions are vital to human health.
项目摘要
在真核生物中,转录的RNA从前体信使RNA(pre-mRNA)加工成
成熟RNA的剪接过程。在这种RNA加工机制中,
前体mRNA被去除,侧翼区域由一个大的分子机器连接起来,
剪接体剪接体不存在预先组装成剪接活性构象。相反,剪接位点
(SS)是通过五个小的核核糖核蛋白复合物的逐步组装而特别选择的
由一个小的核RNA和大量的相关蛋白质组成。这些剪接体组装体
负责正确识别和并列剪接位点,这些剪接位点不是在细胞中明确编码的序列。
