Skeletal muscle differentiation is a highly orchestrated process where muscle progenitors fuse to give mature contractile muscle. Ubiquitous to muscle-specific isoform switching helps muscle cells to adapt to various physiological needs. However, how they decipher differentiation signals into myogenic transcription remains unexplored. Metavinculin, a muscle-specific isoform of ubiquitous cytoskeletal scaffold protein vinculin, is involved in actin remodeling and force transduction along with vinculin in muscle cells. Although it is exclusively expressed in muscle cells, its muscle-specific role has yet to be identified. Here, we report the novel function of metavinculin in switching canonical to non-canonical Wnt-signaling to execute skeletal muscle differentiation. Specifically, we have found that metavinculin expression is absent in proliferating myoblasts and is expressed during skeletal muscle differentiation and in vivo regeneration. Splicing factor Rbfox1 is responsible for the metavinculin-specific exon retention by direct binding to its downstream intron during muscle differentiation. Further, metavinculin depletion dampens the skeletal muscle differentiation program while its ectopic expression induces differentiation-associated genes even in growth-promoting conditions. Additionally, metavinculin-depletion downregulates muscle development and upregulates stress-responsive genes with deregulated Wnt-pathway. Subsequent experiments showed that pharmacological canonical Wnt-activation impedes muscle differentiation program, whereas its inhibition stimulates differentiation in growth conditions. Canonical Wnt-inhibition or non-canonical Wnt7b ectopic expression can restore muscle differentiation programs in metavinculin-depleted cells. Overall, these evidences reveal the dynamic interplay of Rbfox1-generated metavinculin in switching canonical to non-canonical Wnt-signaling through Wnt7b to establish skeletal muscle differentiation.
