Intragenic 5‐methylcytosine and CTCF mediate opposing effects on pre‐mRNA splicing: CTCF promotes inclusion of weak upstream exons through RNA polymerase II pausing, whereas 5‐methylcytosine evicts CTCF, leading to exon exclusion. However, the mechanisms governing dynamic DNA methylation at CTCF‐binding sites were unclear. Here, we reveal the methylcytosine dioxygenases TET1 and TET2 as active regulators of CTCF‐mediated alternative splicing through conversion of 5‐methylcytosine to its oxidation derivatives. 5‐hydroxymethylcytosine and 5‐carboxylcytosine are enriched at an intragenic CTCF‐binding sites in the CD45 model gene and are associated with alternative exon inclusion. Reduced TET levels culminate in increased 5‐methylcytosine, resulting in CTCF eviction and exon exclusion. In vitro analyses establish the oxidation derivatives are not sufficient to stimulate splicing, but efficiently promote CTCF association. We further show genomewide that reciprocal exchange of 5‐hydroxymethylcytosine and 5‐methylcytosine at downstream CTCF‐binding sites is a general feature of alternative splicing in naïve and activated CD4+ T cells. These findings significantly expand our current concept of the pre‐mRNA “splicing code” to include dynamic intragenic DNA methylation catalyzed by the TET proteins. 相似文献

Model for tissue specific Calcitonin/CGRP-I RNA processing from in vitro experiments. 总被引:6,自引:4,他引:2
The Calcitonin/CGRP-I (CALC-I) gene is known to be expressed in a tissue specific fashion resulting in the production of Calcitonin mRNA in thyroid C-cells and CGRP-I mRNA in particular nerve cells. The alternative RNA processing reactions include splicing of exons 1, 2 and 3 to exon 4 and poly (A) addition at exon 4 (Calcitonin mRNA) or splicing of exons 1, 2 and 3 to exons 5 and 6 and poly (A) addition at exon 6 (CGRP-I mRNA). Using a model precursor RNA containing the exon 3 to exon 5 region of the human CALC-I gene we have investigated the Calcitonin- and CGRP-I mRNA-specific processing reactions in vitro, in nuclear extracts of Hela, PC12 and Ewing-1B cells, respectively. Extracts of PC12- and Ewing-1B cells were expected to perform CGRP mRNA-specific splicing, whereas Calcitonin mRNA specific processing was expected to occur in Hela cell extracts. Surprisingly, CGRP mRNA-specific splicing of exon 3 to exon 5 was the predominant reaction in all three extracts. Significant Calcitonin mRNA-specific splicing of exon 3 to exon 4 only took place upon elimination of the dominant downstream 3' splice site used in CGRP mRNA-specific splicing. This elimination occurs most definitively by cleavage at the Calcitonin mRNA specific poly (A) site at exon 4 which may then be the major regulatory mechanism for tissue-specific expression of the CALC-I gene. 相似文献
