英文摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the proposed research is to
delineate the functions in vivo of proteins that participate in splicing
regulation. Using the example of sex-specific splicing regulation of the
Drosophila binary switch gene Sex-lethal (Sxl), studies have shown that
SANS-FILLE (SNF), the counterpart of the human U1 snRNP-U1A and U2 snRNP-U2B"
proteins, plays a key role in Sxl splicing autoregulation. While it is clear
that SNF and the female-specific SXL protein physically interact and are found
in the same multi-component complex, the identity of the other members of this
complex and how they are assembled to inhibit splicing of the male-specific
exon remains to be determined.
To address these issues, three specific aims are proposed. In Aim 1, the
hypothesis, based on data from genetic and protein-protein interaction studies,
that SPP-87B and SIN play integral roles in Sxl splicing autoregulation will be
tested by a combined approach that will include protein localization studies,
protein-protein interaction studies, and genetic analysis of loss-of-function
mutations. In Aim 2, additional proteins that function in Sxl splicing
autoregulation will be identified by exploiting information from studies in
yeast and mammalian cells to create mutations in orthologous splicing factors
and testing them for both genetic interactions and failure to consistently skip
the Sxl male-exon. Candidate loci that have not yet been connected to splicing
will be identified in a genome-wide genetic screen coupled with biochemical
verification. In Aim 3, the biochemical properties of SNF and its partner
proteins important for female-specific Sxl splicing will be identified using
protein-protein and protein-RNA interaction assays. In addition, the molecular
pathway that controls male-exon utilization will be elucidated by identifying
which interactions are dependent on the presence of SXL and/or the association
between SXL and SNF using extracts from mutant animals.
The combined data from these three aims will provide new insight into how SXL,
SNF and their protein partners are assembled into a blocking complex and
function together to promote male-exon skipping. More importantly, because of
the remarkable conservation of known splicing factors between Drosophila and
humans, the information gained from these studies will significantly advance
our understanding of regulated splicing in vertebrates.
