Alternative Splicing of G9a Regulates Neuronal Differentiation.
Chromatin modifications are critical for the establishment and maintenance of differentiation programs. G9a, the enzyme responsible for histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation in mammalian euchromatin, exists as two isoforms with differential inclusion of exon 10 (E10) through alternative splicing. We find that the G9a methyltransferase is required for differentiation of the mouse neuronal cell line ...
متن کاملSAM68 Regulates Neuronal Activity-Dependent Alternative Splicing of Neurexin-1
The assembly of synapses and neuronal circuits relies on an array of molecular recognition events and their modification by neuronal activity. Neurexins are a highly polymorphic family of synaptic receptors diversified by extensive alternative splicing. Neurexin variants exhibit distinct isoform-specific biochemical interactions and synapse assembly functions, but the mechanisms governing splic...
متن کاملAlternative splicing of neuroligin regulates the rate of presynaptic differentiation.
Neuroligins (NLGs) and Neurexins (NRXs) are important adhesion molecules that promote synapse formation. Multiple splice variants of NLG and NRX exist, but their specific functions are unclear. Here we report that a surrogate postsynaptic cell expressing full-length NLG-1 triggers slow presynaptic differentiation in a contacting axon. In contrast, a version of NLG-1, which lacks insert B (NLG-1...
متن کاملAlternative splicing regulates the expression of G9A and SUV39H2 methyltransferases, and dramatically changes SUV39H2 functions
Alternative splicing is the main source of proteome diversity. Here, we have investigated how alternative splicing affects the function of two human histone methyltransferases (HMTase): G9A and SUV39H2. We show that exon 10 in G9A and exon 3 in SUV39H2 are alternatively included in a variety of tissues and cell lines, as well as in a different species. The production of these variants is likely...
متن کاملIntragenic epigenetic changes modulate NCAM alternative splicing in neuronal differentiation.
Alternative splicing contributes to cell type-specific transcriptomes. Here, we show that changes in intragenic chromatin marks affect NCAM (neural cell adhesion molecule) exon 18 (E18) alternative splicing during neuronal differentiation. An increase in the repressive marks H3K9me2 and H3K27me3 along the gene body correlated with inhibition of polymerase II elongation in the E18 region, but wi...
