Title RiboMeth-Seq analysis of purified U6 and U2 snRNAs
Organism Homo sapiens
Experiment type Other
Summary The La-related protein LARP7 has been mainly described as a component of the 7SK small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) complex, which negatively regulates RNA polymerase II by sequestering the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb). In our studies, we discovered a novel, 7SK snRNP-independent function of LARP7. We show that LARP7 interacts with the U6 spliceosomal RNA as well as with the small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) directing the 2'-O-methylations of U6. To investigate the relevance of this interaction, U6 or U2 snRNAs were purified from total RNA by pulldown of biotinylated antisense oligonucleotides and the occurence of 2’-O-methylations was investigated by RiboMeth-seq analysis. A comparison between U6 and U2 snRNA isolated from HEK293 wildtype or LARP7 knockout cell lines revealed that 2’-O-methylations of the U6 snRNA are specifically lost in the absence of LARP7. Alazami syndrome is a form of primary dwarfism associated with mutations in the LARP7 gene. RiboMeth-seq analyses performed with RNA isolated from blood samples of two Alazami patients or healthy parents as well as from B-lymphoblastoid cell lines (B-LCLs) derived from an Alazami patient and from a healthy parent confirmed the impact of mutant LARP7 protein variants on the 2’-O-methylation profile of the U6 snRNA.
 
Overall design Three biological replicates were performed with the U6 snRNA purified from wildtype HEK293 cell and two biological replicates each from two independent HEK293 LARP7 knockout clones generated with the CRISPR/Cas9 system. 2’-O-methylations of the U2 snRNAs were analyzed from one sample derived from wildtype HEK293 cells and from two independent HEK293 LARP7 knockout clones (one sample each). HEK293 T-Rex LARP7 ko cell lines stably overexpressing FLAG/HA-tagged LARP7 wildtype or F44A mutants were assayed in two biological replicates each for U6 2’-O-methylations. U6 2’-O-methylations were also analyzed from material purified from human blood samples. Therefore, U6-snRNA originating from two siblings carrying homozygous loss-of-function mutations in the LARP7 gene and from both heterozygous parents was used for RiboMeth-Seq experiments. RiboMeth-Seq analyses of purified U6 snRNAs were also performed from total RNA extracted from two B-LCL cell lines originating either from a boy affected by the Alazami syndrome or from his non-affected father (two replicates each).
