研究领域

(1)阐析转录组RNA可变剪接的柔性调控以及由反向剪接生成的环状RNA功能:①从随机序列中系统性鉴定新的内含子剪接增强子ISE及与之特异结合的新剪接因子,发现ISE的活力受其在pre-mRNA上相对位置影响(Nat Struct Mol Biol 2012, 通讯作者);②系统性鉴定新的内含子剪接沉默子ISS及与之特异结合的新剪接因子,提出RNA-蛋白网络对剪接柔性调控的新模型(Nat Struct Mol Biol 2013, 共同通讯作者);③创建用于研究RNA剪接调控的新报告系统(Methods 2014,共同通讯作者);④发现剪接因子中的RNA识别结构域在进化中被大量复制(RNA 2014,通讯作者);⑤发现环形RNA的反式剪接成熟机制并证实其所含ORF能被翻译成蛋白质(RNA 2015,通讯作者);⑥揭示了环状RNA可作为编码蛋白的信使RNA新功能,并发现其翻译可由RNA的碱基编辑驱动(Cell Research 2017,通讯作者)。本结果被Science和Nature Review做了亮点评论。 (2)揭示癌细胞中可变剪接异化的专一性调控及其生物学功能:①发现选择性剪接在细胞周期中有着时序性调控,并影响着癌细胞的生长(eLife 2016, Cell Research 2016, 通讯作者);②发现剪接因子RBM4的抑癌机理并在全转录组鉴定出RBM4的靶点基因(Cancer Cell 2014,共同通讯作者),被评为2014年研究亮点;③发现细胞增值过程DAZAP1响应MEK/ERK信号转导通路对RNA剪接进行调控的机制(Nat Commun 2014,通讯作者);④利用癌症的致病基因组图谱(The Cancer Genome Atlas, TCGA),鉴定出癌症细胞中可变剪接发生异化的163个基因(Oncotargets 2015,共同通讯作者)。 (3)利用模块化合成系统设计构建特异性调控RNA剪接加工的人工蛋白质:①用PUF结构域和调控剪接的功能域来构建人工剪接因子,并成功矫正了癌细胞中的病理性剪接异化(Nat Methods 2009,通讯作者),被F1000评论推荐,并被Nature属下Science-Business Exchange (SciBX)专文评论为“This is a very elegant, imaginative and novel approach to build an artificial splicing factor from scratch”;②将PUF结构域和RNA内切酶组装成为人工RNA内切酶,从而特异性识别并降解线粒体编码的mRNA(Nat Commun 2013,通讯作者);③构建人工RNA内切酶,特异性降解强直性肌营养不良症中的毒性RNA,从而研发了此遗传疾病的一种新疗法(Mol Ther 2014,通讯作者);④整合PUF结构域特异识别所有RNA碱基的完善规则,使得PUF对RNA的特异结合,扩展到任意RNA序列(J Biol Chem 2011,通讯作者;FESBS J,共同通讯作者),其中J Biol Chem论文被评为当周最佳论文(Paper of the week);⑤设计构建了基于CRISPR-cas体系的mRNA翻译操纵系统(ACS Synth Biol 2015,共同通讯作者)。
