The most frequently mutated RNA splicing factors in cancer impact intronic branch site and 3′ splice site recognition. These include mutations in the core RNA splicing factor SF3B1 as well as mutations in the U2AF1/2 heterodimeric complex, which recruits the SF3b complex to the 3′ splice site. Additionally, mutations in splicing regulatory proteins SRSF2 and RBM10 are frequent in cancer, and there has been a recent suggestion that variant forms of small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) may contribute to splicing dysregulation in cancer. Here, we describe molecular mechanisms by which mutations in these factors alter splice site recognition and how studies of this process have yielded new insights into cancer pathogenesis and the molecular regulation of splicing. We also discuss data linking mutant RNA splicing factors to RNA metabolism beyond splicing.</p>","PeriodicalId":18950,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":16.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141981010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subcellular organelles play pivotal roles in the regulation of ferroptosis, but the mechanisms underlying the contributions of the mitochondria remain poorly defined. Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) is a mitochondrial dynamin-like GTPase that controls mitochondrial morphogenesis, fusion, and energetics. Here, we report that human and mouse cells lacking OPA1 are markedly resistant to ferroptosis. Reconstitution with OPA1 mutants demonstrates that ferroptosis sensitization requires the GTPase activity but is independent of OPA1-mediated mitochondrial fusion. Mechanistically, OPA1 confers susceptibility to ferroptosis by maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis and function, which contributes both to the generation of mitochondrial lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) and suppression of an ATF4-mediated integrated stress response. Together, these results identify an OPA1-controlled mitochondrial axis of ferroptosis regulation and provide mechanistic insights for therapeutically manipulating this form of cell death in diseases.</p>","PeriodicalId":18950,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":16.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141974187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their deregulation can challenge DNA replication fork progression and threaten genome stability. Here, we demonstrate an unexpected role for the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) translocase helicase-like transcription factor (HLTF) in responding to G4s. We show that HLTF, which is enriched at G4s in the human genome, can directly unfold G4s <em>in vitro</em> and uses this ATP-dependent translocase function to suppress G4 accumulation throughout the cell cycle. Additionally, MSH2 (a component of MutS heterodimers that bind G4s) and HLTF act synergistically to suppress G4 accumulation, restrict alternative lengthening of telomeres, and promote resistance to G4-stabilizing drugs. In a discrete but complementary role, HLTF restrains DNA synthesis when G4s are stabilized by suppressing primase-polymerase (PrimPol)-dependent repriming. Together, the distinct roles of HLTF in the G4 response prevent DNA damage and potentially mutagenic replication to safeguard genome stability.</p>","PeriodicalId":18950,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":16.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141974202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
