Tdrd3-null mice show post-transcriptional and behavioral impairments associated with neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity
The Topoisomerase 3B (Top3b) - Tudor domain containing 3 (Tdrd3) protein complex is the only dual-activity topoisomerase complex that can alter both DNA and RNA topology in animals. TOP3B mutations in humans are associated with schizophrenia, autism and cognitive disorders; and Top3b-null mice exhibit several phenotypes observed in animal models of psychiatric and cognitive disorders, including impaired cognitive and emotional behaviors, aberrant neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity, and transcriptional defects. Similarly, human TDRD3 genomic variants have been associated with schizophrenia, verbal short-term memory and educational attainment. However, the importance of Tdrd3 in normal brain function has not been examined in animal models. Here we generated a Tdrd3-null mouse strain and demonstrate that these mice display both shared and unique defects when compared to Top3b-null mice. Shared defects were observed in cognitive behaviors, synaptic plasticity, adult neurogenesis, newborn neuron morphology, and neuronal activity-dependent transcription; whereas defects unique to Tdrd3-deficient mice include hyperactivity, changes in anxiety-like behaviors, olfaction, increased new neuron complexity, and reduced myelination. Interestingly, multiple genes critical for neurodevelopment and cognitive function exhibit reduced levels in mature but not nascent transcripts. We infer that the entire Top3b-Tdrd3 complex is essential for normal brain function, and that defective post-transcriptional regulation could contribute to cognitive and psychiatric disorders.
