RNA-binding proteins typically change the fate of RNA, such as stability, translation or processing. Conversely, we recently uncovered that the small non-coding vault RNA 1-1 (vtRNA1-1) directly binds to the autophagic receptor p62/SQSTM1 and changes the protein's function. We refer to this process as ‘riboregulation'. Here, we discuss this newly uncovered vault RNA function against the background of three decades of vault RNA research. We highlight the vtRNA1-1-p62 interaction as an example of riboregulation of a key cellular process.

AbstractSox2 is a master transcriptional regulator of embryonic development. In this study, we determined the protein interactome of Sox2 in the chromatin and nucleoplasm of mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells. Apart from canonical interactions with pluripotency-regulating transcription factors, we identified interactions with several chromatin modulators, including members of the heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) family, suggesting a role of Sox2 in chromatin-mediated transcriptional repression. Sox2 was also found to interact with RNA binding proteins (RBPs), including proteins involved in RNA processing. RNA immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing revealed that Sox2 associates with different messenger RNAs, as well as small nucleolar RNA Snord34 and the non-coding RNA 7SK. 7SK has been shown to regulate transcription at regulatory regions, which could suggest a functional interaction with Sox2 for chromatin recruitment. Nevertheless, we found no evidence of Sox2 modulating recruitment of 7SK to chromatin when examining 7SK chromatin occupancy by Chromatin Isolation by RNA Purification (ChIRP) in Sox2 depleted mES cells. In addition, knockdown of 7SK in mES cells did not lead to any change in Sox2 occupancy at 7SK-regulated genes. Thus, our results show that Sox2 extensively interact with RBPs, and suggest that Sox2 and 7SK co-exist in a ribonucleoprotein complex whose function is not to regulate chromatin recruitment, but might rather regulate other processes in the nucleoplasm.Summary blurbSox2 interacts with RNA-binding proteins and diverse RNAs

Shed Light

The long non-coding RNA Malat1 has been implicated in several human cancers, while the mechanism of action is not completely understood. As RNAs in cells function together with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), the composition of their RBP complex can shed light on their functionality. We here performed quantitative interactomics of 14 non-overlapping fragments covering the full length of Malat1 to identify possible nuclear interacting proteins. Overall, we identified 35 candidates including 14 already known binders, which are able to interact with Malat1 in the nucleus. Furthermore, the use of fragments along the full-length RNA allowed us to reveal two hotspots for protein binding, one in the 5′-region and one in the 3′-region of Malat1. Our results provide confirmation on previous RNA-protein interaction studies and suggest new candidates for functional investigations.

Atherosclerosis is a complex disease closely related to the function of endothelial cells (ECs), monocytes/macrophages, and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Despite a good understanding of the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, the underlying molecular mechanisms are still only poorly understood. Therefore, atherosclerosis continues to be an important clinical issue worthy of further research. Recent evidence has shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) can serve as important regulators of cellular function in atherosclerosis. Besides, several studies have shown that lncRNAs are partly dependent on the specific interaction with RBPs to exert their function. This review summarizes the important contributions of lncRNAs and RBPs in atherosclerosis and provides novel and comprehensible interaction models of lncRNAs and RBPs.
