Introduction

Component of the Integrator (INT) complex, a complex involved in the small nuclear RNAs (snRNA) U1 and U2 transcription and in their 3'-box-dependent processing. The Integrator complex is associated with the C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II largest subunit (POLR2A) and is recruited to the U1 and U2 snRNAs genes (Probable). Mediates recruitment of cytoplasmic dynein to the nuclear envelope, probably as component of the INT complex (PubMed:23904267).

INTS11 and CPSF73 are metal-dependent endonucleases for Integrator and pre-mRNA 3'-end processing, respectively. Here, we show that the INTS11 binding partner BRAT1/CG7044, a factor important for neuronal fitness, stabilizes INTS11 in the cytoplasm and is required for Integrator function in the nucleus. Loss of BRAT1 in neural organoids leads to transcriptomic disruption and precocious expression of neurogenesis-driving transcription factors. The structures of the human INTS9-INTS11-BRAT1 and Drosophila dIntS11-CG7044 complexes reveal that the conserved C terminus of BRAT1/CG7044 is captured in the active site of INTS11, with a cysteine residue directly coordinating the metal ions. Inspired by these observations, we find that UBE3D is a binding partner for CPSF73, and UBE3D likely also uses a conserved cysteine residue to directly coordinate the active site metal ions. Our studies have revealed binding partners for INTS11 and CPSF73 that behave like cytoplasmic chaperones with a conserved impact on the nuclear functions of these enzymes.

Repressor element-1 silencing transcription factor (REST) is required for the formation of mature neurons. REST dysregulation underlies a key mechanism of neurodegeneration associated with neurological disorders. However, the mechanisms leading to alterations of REST-mediated silencing of key neurogenesis genes are not known. Here, we show that BRCA1 Associated ATM Activator 1 (BRAT1), a gene linked to neurodegenerative diseases, is required for the activation of REST-responsive genes during neuronal differentiation. We find that INTS11 and INTS9 subunits of Integrator complex interact with BRAT1 as a distinct trimeric complex to activate critical neuronal genes during differentiation.BRAT1depletion results in persistence of REST residence on critical neuronal genes disrupting the differentiation of NT2 cells into astrocytes and neuronal cells. We identified BRAT1 and INTS11 co-occupying the promoter region of these genes and pinpoint a role for BRAT1 in recruiting INTS11 to their promoters. Disease-causing mutations inBRAT1diminish its association with INTS11/INTS9, linking the manifestation of disease phenotypes with a defect in transcriptional activation of key neuronal genes by BRAT1/INTS11/INTS9 complex. Finally, loss ofBrat1in mouse embryonic stem cells leads to a defect in neuronal differentiation assay. Importantly, while reconstitution with wild-type BRAT1 restores neuronal differentiation, the addition of a BRAT1 mutant is unable to associate with INTS11/INTS9 and fails to rescue the neuronal phenotype. Taken together, our study highlights the importance of BRAT1 association with INTS11 and INTS9 in the development of the nervous system.

Finding the 3D structure of large, multi-subunit complexes is difficult, despite recent advances in cryo-EM technology, due to remaining challenges to expressing and purifying subunits. Computational approaches that predict protein-protein interactions, including Direct Coupling Analysis (DCA), represent an attractive alternative for dissecting interactions within protein complexes. However, they are readily applicable only to small proteins due to high computational complexity and a high number of false positives. To solve this problem, we proposed a modified DCA approach, a powerful tool to predict the most likely interfaces of protein complexes. Since our modified approach cannot provide structural and mechanistic details of interacting peptides, we combine it with Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. To illustrate this novel approach, we predict interacting domains and structural details of interactions of two Integrator complex subunits, INTS9 and INTS11. Our predictions of interacting residues of INTS9/INTS11 are highly consistent with crystallographic structure. We then expand our procedure to two complexes whose structures are not well-studied: 1) The heterodimer formed by the Cleavage and Polyadenylation Specificity Factor 100-kD (CPSF100) and 73-kD (CPSF73); 2) The heterotrimer formed by INTS4/INTS9/INTS11. Experimental data supports our predictions of interactions within these two complexes, demonstrating that combining DCA and MD simulations is a powerful approach to revealing structural insights of large protein complexes.
