Definitions
- the present invention relates to a spliceosome protein which is associated with the U11 / U12 snRNP complex of the AT-AC spliceosome and is specific for this spliceosome.
- the invention further relates to the use of this protein and the DNA sequences coding therefor in the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases and diseases which are based on defects in the splicer.
- Organism It is known that a point mutation in an intron of the ß-globin can lead to a ß + thalemia. The point mutation creates an incorrect splice location, which leads to a changed reading frame and an early one Termination of the peptide chain leads (Weatherall, D. & Clegg, JB (1982) Cell, 29, 7; Fukumaki, Y. et al. (1982) Cell, 28, 585).
- Arabidopsis thaiiana mutants z. B. a point mutation at the 5 ' splice of the phytochrome B gene to an incorrect expression of the gene. This change does not remove an intron that contains a stop codon in its sequence. The development of the plants is disturbed because the gene is involved in phytomorphogenesis (Bradley, JM et al. (1995) Plant Mol. Biol, 27, 1133).
- RNA-coding genes are composed like a mosaic, with individual ones for sub-areas of the
- the primary transcripts of such mosaic genes therefore contain both the sequences of the coding exons and of the non-coding introns in their RNA chain and still have to be processed for correct gene expression.
- splicing takes place in the cell nucleus.
- intron-RNA sequences are cut out from longer-chain primary transcripts, the so-called pre-mRNA, with the formation of mature mRNA, and exon-RNA sequences are linked to one another.
- the splicing process is catalyzed by a so-called spliceosome, a large ribonucleoprotein complex, which is gradually made up of several small nuclear ribonuclein protein particles (small nucleic RNPs, snRNPs), which in turn consist of uridine-rich RNAs (small nucleic RNAs, snRNAs) and specifically consist of these binding proteins, and are composed of proteins which are not firmly bound to these snRNPs, the so-called ⁇ icht-snRNP splice factors.
- Splicing is generally a two-step mechanism, with a transesterification step involved in each step.
- a free 5'-exon and a so-called lariat structure of the intron are generated after binding the spliceosome to the 5'-splice point and the so-called branching point in the intron, the intron still being connected to the 3'-exon .
- the two exons are ligated and the intron released.
- the majority of introns of pre-mRNA in metazoa have invariable GU and AG dinucleotides at the ends. These introns are cut out by the so-called independent spliceosome (or major spliceosome), which recognizes these dinucleotides.
- the spliceosome contains the U1, U2, U5 and U4 / U6 snRNPs, which are composed of one (U1, U2, U5) or two (U4 / U6) RNAs and numerous proteins, for example proteins of the Sm class.
- the splice and branching point of the so-called U2-dependent introns is recognized by the spliceosome by means of interactions in which both RNA and proteins are involved.
- the duplex formation between the U1 snRNA and the 5 'splice site is caused by various polypeptides, such as the 70K and the C protein of the
- U1 snRNPs and proteins of the family of Ser and Arg-rich SR proteins relieved.
- the base pairing between U2-snRNA and the branching point likewise requires numerous U2-snRNP proteins, in particular the subunits of the heteromeric splice factors SF3a and SF3b [R. Reed, Curr. Opin. Genet. Dev. 6, 215 (1996); C.L Will and R. Lriggmann, Curr. Opin. Cell Biol. 9,
- AT-AC spliceosome an alternative spliceosome, the so-called AT-AC spliceosome, has been identified, which is composed of the U11, U12, U5 and U4atac / U6atac snRNPs and spliced a rare class of pre-mRNA introns that attach to theirs
- Termini have AU and AC dinucleotides or GT and AG dinucleotides [C.B. Bürge et al. In: The RNA World II, R.F. Gesteland and J.F. Atkins, ed., Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 1999, p. 525].
- These independent introns which are therefore called, are found only with a low frequency in comparison with the U2-dependent introns and contain highly conserved sequence elements at the 5 'splice point and the branching point, which differ from the weakly conserved sequences of the U2-dependent pre-mRNA introns [CB Bürge et al. In: The RNA World II, R.F. Gesteland and J.F.
- the U11-snRNP binds to the 5'-splice site by base pairing and the U12-snRNP to the branching site [SL Hall and RAPadgett, Science 271: 1716 (1996); W.-Y. Tarn and JA Steife, Cell 84: 801 (1996); W.-Y. Tarn and JA Steitz, Proc. Natl. Acad. Be. USA 94: 6030 (1997); I Kolossova and RA Padgett, RNA 3: 227 (1997)].
- the mature spliceosome is then formed by association of the U5 and U4atac / U6atac snRNPs [W.-Y. Tarn and JA Steitz, Science 273: 1824 (1996)].
- the U11 and U12 snRNPs lie in core extracts as highly stable 18S
- the identification and characterization of the proteins characteristic of the U12-dependent spliceosome could therefore not only provide information about the exact mechanism of the splicing processes taking place in this spliceosome, but at the same time enable diagnosis and therapy of diseases which are due to disorders in the splice mechanism of this spliceosome.
- the provision of specific proteins also enables them to be found and
- the object of the present invention was therefore to provide one for the U12
- the subject of the present invention is therefore a spliceosome protein with the function of the 35kD protein associated with the U11 / U12 snRNP complex of the U12-dependent spliceosome, which by a nucleic acid (hereinafter nucleic acid according to the invention) which is selected from the group consisting of
- DNA sequences which hybridize with the sequences complementary to the sequences under a) and are capable of coding a protein with the function of the 35 kD protein of the U11 / U12 snRNP complex;
- “Spliceosome protein with the function of the 35 kD protein associated with the U11 / U12 snRNP complex of the U12-dependent spliceosome (hereinafter the spliceosome protein according to the invention)” is to be understood here to mean any polypeptide which essentially has the properties of the naturally occurring, preferably human, Has 35kD protein of the U11 / U12 snRNP complex, i.e. in the spliceosome complex, it ensures the correct function of the spliceosome mentioned.
- hybridization means hybridization under customary hybridization conditions, in particular under stringent hybridization conditions as are known to the person skilled in the art [cf. Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 2nd ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, NN. (1989)].
- the spliceosome protein preferably has the amino acid sequence according to SEQ ID ⁇ o. 18. However, the protein can also contain one or more amino acid deletions,
- the spliceosome protein can also contain foreign protein sequences (eg as a fusion protein).
- the recombinant DNA molecules can either be directly inserted into the desired one
- the invention also relates to host organisms which contain the recombinant DNA molecules or vectors according to the invention.
- RNA is radiolabelled, so that later Separation on a denaturing urea-polyacrylic amide gel based on the characteristic band pattern can be used to assess whether a splicing reaction has taken place.
- samples from patient tissue are tested with and without the addition of the 35 kD protein according to the invention. Complementation then detects the defect in said protein.
- the protein according to the invention can also be used as a therapeutic agent in diseases based on splice defects.
- the spliceosome protein according to the invention can advantageously be used to find or develop splice modulators, e.g. Use splice inhibitors, which are then suitable for the treatment of other diseases.
- a U12-dependent intron was recently identified in the mutant genes that are responsible for the autosomal recessive Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS). It is to be expected that such introns will also be found in other genes in the future, which can be ascribed a role in genetically caused diseases. A targeted inhibition of the splicing of the introns present in such genes and thus the expression of the harmful mutated genes therefore represents a possible route to the therapy of the diseases mentioned. Because of the rare occurrence of the U12-dependent introns, such splice inhibitors can also be therapeutic in the case of U12-dependent spliceosomes are used more effectively than with U2-dependent spliceosomes.
- the U1 binding site overlaps with a U11 binding site which is identical to a sequence at the NRS in the 5 'splice site of the U12-dependent spliceosome.
- the U11 snRNP binding to the NRS promotes splicing, thus reducing NRS activity.
- the competition between U1 and U1 snRNPs helps to establish the balance between spliced and unspliced viral RNAs for the purpose of optimal viral replication.
- the invention further relates to a method for producing a medicament for the treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, in particular Grave's disease, spinal muscular atrophy, ⁇ '-thalassemia, cancer related to the c-erb oncogene, hepatitis C infection, herpes simplex virus infection, systemic lupus erythematosus, Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, wherein a nucleic acid according to the invention or a spliceosome protein according to the invention is formulated.
