Abstract


Mutations in the splicing machinery have been implicated in a number of human diseases. Most notably, the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) component SF3b1 has been found to be frequently mutated in blood cancers such as myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). SF3b1 is a highly conserved HEAT repeat (HR)-containing protein and most of these blood cancer mutations cluster in a hot spot located in HR4-8. Recently, a second mutational hotspot has been identified in SF3b1 located in HR9-12 and is associated with acute myeloid leukemias, bladder urothelial carcinomas, and uterine corpus endometrial carcinomas. The consequences of these mutations on SF3b1 functions during splicing have not yet been tested. We incorporated the corresponding mutations into the yeast homolog of SF3b1 and tested their impact on splicing. We find that all of these HR9-12 mutations can support splicing in yeast, and this suggests that none of them are loss of function alleles in humans. The Hsh155V502F mutation alters splicing of several pre-mRNA reporters containing weak branch sites as well as a genetic interaction with Prp2 and physical interactions with Prp5 and Prp3. The ability of a single allele of Hsh155 to perturb interactions with multiple factors functioning at different stages of the splicing reaction suggests that some SF3b1-mutant disease phenotypes may have a complex origin on the spliceosome.
