| Abstract |
The Integrator is a multi-subunit protein complex that catalyzes the maturation of snRNA transcripts via 3' cleavage, a step required for snRNA incorporation with snRNP for spliceosome biogenesis. Here we developed a GFP based in vivo snRNA misprocessing reporter as a readout of Integrator function and performed a genome-wide RNAi screen for Integrator regulators. We found that loss of the Argonaute encoding csr-1 gene resulted in widespread 3' misprocessing of snRNA transcripts that is accompanied by a significant increase in alternative splicing. Loss of the csr-1 gene down-regulates the germline expression of Integrator subunits 4 and 6 and is accompanied by a reduced protein translation efficiency of multiple Integrator catalytic and non-catalytic subunits. Through isoform and motif mutant analysis, we determined that CSR-1's effect on snRNA processing is dependent on its catalytic slicer activity but does not involve the CSR-1a isoform. Moreover, mRNA-sequencing revealed high similarity in the transcriptome profile between csr-1 and Integrator subunit knockdown via RNAi. Together, our findings reveal CSR-1 as a new regulator of the Integrator complex and implicate a novel role of this Argonaute protein in snRNA 3' processing. |
