📝 英文原版摘要
Muscle LIM Protein (MLP) is a key component of the cardiomyocyte Z disc that is essential for sarcomere integrity and cardiac homeostasis. Accordingly, loss of MLP function results in (cardio-)myopathy phenotypes in animal models and human patients. In this study, we present the first RNA-binding proteome (RBPome) of human cardiomyocytes using enhanced RNA interactome capture (eRIC). Data integration with existing RBPome datasets identified MLP as an evolutionary conserved and previously unrecognized non-canonical RNA-binding protein (RBP) in cardiomyocytes. Using complementary biochemical approaches, we confirmed direct RNA association of MLP. Moreover, RNA integrity was required for MLP interactions with cytoskeletal proteins and for the formation of higher-order MLP-containing assemblies, revealed by co-immunoprecipitation and RNA-dependent sedimentation profiling. Subcellular fractionation and imaging analyses indicated that MLP resides in both cytosolic and cytoskeleton-associated pools. Domain mapping identified two glycine-rich regions within MLP as RNA contact sites, and RNA-binding-deficient MLP mutants showed impaired association with cytoskeletal complexes. Together, our findings establish/suggest RNA binding as a regulated property of MLP and uncover an RNA-dependent layer of cytoskeletal organization in cardiomyocytes.
