BioID proximity mapping reveals novel SAP18 interactions in the prespliceosomal complex.

SAP18 protein was originally discovered in association with the SIN3 transcriptional repressor complex. Subsequent biochemical fractionation studies identified SAP18 as a component of another distinct trimeric complex termed as the apoptosis- and splicing-associated protein (ASAP) complex. The existence of SAP18 in distinct complexes highlights its dual role in transcriptional and ...
splicing regulation. In our study, we aim to define the in vivo interactome of SAP18 using proximity-dependent biotin identification (BioID). Mass spectrometry analysis of streptavidin-purified biotinylated proteins revealed new SIN3-associated interactors, including RBBP4 and SAP30BP. Notably, we identified 72 spliceosomal proteins as highly enriched interactors. Additionally, a complementary immunoprecipitation assay validated novel interactions of SAP18 with the prespliceosomal components SNRNP70, SNRPA, SF3B1, U2AF1, and the SR protein SRSF1. Mutational analysis using a C-terminal SAP18 double point mutant, which is known to be deficient in ASAP-interaction, demonstrated a debilitated interaction with the prespliceosomal proteins. Altogether, our results present a refined understanding of the SAP18 interactome, uncovering its association with the prespliceosome in conjugation with ASAP components.
