Deletion of RBMX RGG/RG motif in Shashi-XLID syndrome leads to aberrant p53 activation and neuronal differentiation defects.

Cell reports | 2021

RNA-binding proteins play important roles in X-linked intellectual disability (XLID). In this study, we investigate the contribution of the XLID-associated RBMX in neuronal differentiation. We show that RBMX-depleted cells exhibit aberrant activation of the p53 pathway. Moreover, we identify that the RBMX RGG/RG motif is methylated by protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), and this regulates assembly with the SRSF1 splicing factor into higher-order complexes. Depletion of RBMX or disruption of the RBMX/SRSF1 complex in PRMT5-depleted cells reduces SRSF1 binding to the MDM4 precursor (pre-)mRNA, leading to exon 6 exclusion and lower MDM4 protein levels. Transcriptomic analysis of isogenic Shashi-XLID human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) generated using CRISPR-Cas9 reveals a dysregulation of MDM4 splicing and aberrant p53 upregulation. Shashi-XLID neural progenitor cells (NPCs) display differentiation and morphological abnormalities accompanied with excessive apoptosis. Our findings identify RBMX as a regulator of SRSF1 and the p53 pathway, suggesting that the loss of function of the RBMX RGG/RG motif is the cause of Shashi-XLID syndrome.
