Project description:Much of posttranscriptional mRNA regulation occurs through cis-acting sequences in mRNA 3´ untranslated regions (UTRs), which interact with specific proteins and ribonucleoprotein complexes that modulate translation, mRNA stability and subcellular localization. Studies in Caenorhabditis elegans have revealed indispensable roles for 3´UTR-mediated gene regulation, yet most C. elegans genes have lacked annotated 3´UTRs. Here we describe a high-throughput method to reliably identify 3´ ends of polyadenylated RNAs. This method, called poly(A)-position profiling by sequencing (3P-Seq), was used to determine the UTRs of C. elegans. Compared to standard methods also recently applied to C. elegans UTRs, 3P-Seq identified 8775 additional UTRs while excluding thousands of shorter UTR isoforms that do not appear to be authentic. Analysis of this expanded and corrected dataset indicated that the high A/U content of C. elegans 3´UTRs facilitated genome compaction, since the elements specifying cleavage and polyadenylation, which are A/U-rich, can more readily emerge in A/U rich regions. Indeed, 30% of the protein-coding genes have mRNAs with alternative, partially overlapping end regions that generate another 10,000 cleavage and polyadenylation sites that had gone largely unnoticed and represent potential evolutionary intermediates of progressive UTR shortening. Moreover, a third of the convergently transcribed genes utilize palindromic arrangements of bidirectional elements to specify UTRs with convergent overlap, which also contributes to genome compaction by eliminating regions between genes. Although nematode 3´UTRs have median length only one-sixth that of mammalian 3´UTRs, they have twice the density of conserved microRNA sites, in part because additional types of seed-complementary sites are preferentially conserved. These findings reveal the influence of cleavage and polyadenylation on the evolution of genome architecture and provide resources for studying posttranscriptional gene regulation.

Project description:Thousands of large intervening non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been identified in mammals. To better understand the evolution and functions of these enigmatic RNAs, we used chromatin marks, poly(A)-site mapping and RNA-Seq data, to identify more than 550 distinct lincRNAs in zebrafish. Although these shared many characteristics with mammalian lincRNAs, only 29 had detectable sequence similarity with putative mammalian orthologs, typically restricted to a single short region of high conservation. Other lincRNAs had conserved genomic locations without detectable sequence conservation. Antisense reagents targeting conserved regions of two zebrafish lincRNAs caused developmental defects. Reagents targeting splice sites caused the same defects and were rescued by adding either the mature lincRNA or its human or mouse ortholog. Our study provides a roadmap for identification and analysis of lincRNAs in model organisms and shows that lincRNAs play crucial biological roles during embryonic development with functionality conserved despite limited sequence conservation. H3K4me3, H3K36me3 chromatin maps, 3P-Seq and RNA-Seq were used to identify lincRNAs in the zebrafish genome

Project description:The post-transcriptional fate of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) is largely dictated by their 3' untranslated regions (3'UTRs), which are defined by cleavage and polyadenylation (CPA) of pre-mRNAs. We used poly(A)-position profiling by sequencing (3P-Seq) to map poly(A) sites at eight developmental stages and tissues in the zebrafish. Analysis of over 60 million 3P-Seq reads substantially increased and improved existing 3'UTR annotations, resulting in confidently identified 3'UTRs for more than 78.79% of the annotated protein-coding genes in zebrafish. Most zebrafish genes undergo alternative CPA with more than a thousand genes using different dominant 3'UTRs at different stages. 3'UTRs tend to be shortest in the ovaries and longest in the brain. Isoforms with some of the shortest 3'UTRs are highly expressed in the ovary yet absent in the maternally contributed RNAs of the embryo, perhaps because their 3'UTRs are too short to accommodate a uridine-rich motif required for stability of the maternal mRNA. At two hours post-fertilization, thousands of unique poly(A) sites appear at locations lacking a typical polyadenylation signal, which suggests a wave of widespread cytoplasmic polyadenylation of mRNA degradation intermediates. Our insights into the identities, formation, and evolution of zebrafish 3'UTRs provide a resource for studying gene regulation during vertebrate development. 3P-Seq was used to map the 3' ends of protein-coding genes in the zebrafish genome

Project description:To gain insight into the functions of salt-regulated miRNAs, target genes were identified through degradome sequencing approach. Three cotton RNA libraries were constructed and sequenced under normal consideration, osmotic and ionic stress. A total of 73,988,644 reads represented by 3,254,054 unique reads from the 5â ends of uncapped and poly-adenylated RNAs were obtained. The PairFinder software was used to identify the sliced targets for the known miRNAs and novel miRNAs. These sequences were further compared with transcriptome sequencing data of G. arboretum and G. raimondii. We obtained the data from (Cotton Genome Project, http://cgp.genomics.org.cn/page/species/index.jsp).Based on degradome sequencing, 31 target genes were identified for 20 cotton miRNA families. The abundance of transcripts was plotted for each transcript. Conserved miRNAs target conserved homologous genes in diverse plant species. Three cDNA libraries were constructed using total RNA obtained from control samples (CK), the 4 h and 5 d salt-treated samples. A total of 74,351,180 sequence reads were obtained from three libraries. After removing the 3p and 5p adapter sequences and filtering out low quality âânââ sequences, 864,720, 1,217,757 and 1,171,577 clean reads remained in the CK, 4 h and 5 d samples, respectively.

Project description:The tumorigenesis of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) is poorly understood. Recent studies have associated alternative polyadenylation with proliferation, cell transformation and cancer. Polyadenylation is the process in which the pre-mRNA is cleaved at a polyA site and a polyA tail is added. Genes with two or more polyA sites can undergo alternative polyadenylation. This produces two or more distinct mRNA isoforms with different 3M-bM-^@M-^Y untranslated regions. Additionally, alternative polyadenylation can also produce mRNAs containing different 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal coding regions. Therefore, alternative polyadenylation alters both the repertoire and the expression level of proteins. Here we used high-throughput sequencing data to map polyA sites and characterize polyadenylation genome-wide in three small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors and a reference sample. In the tumors sixteen genes showed significant changes of alternative polyadenylation pattern, which lead to either the 3M-bM-^@M-^Y truncation of mRNA coding regions or 3M-bM-^@M-^Y untranslated regions. Among these, 11 genes had been previously associated with cancer, with 4 genes being known tumor suppressors: DCC, PDZD2, MAGI1 and DACT2. We validated the alternative polyadenylation in 3 out of 3 cases with Q-RT-PCR. Our findings suggest that changes of alternative polyadenylation pattern in these 16 genes could be involved in the tumorigenesis of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors. Furthermore, they also point to alternative polyadenylation as a new target for both diagnostic and treatment of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors. The identified genes with alternative polyadenylation specific to the small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors could be further tested as diagnostic markers and drug targets for disease prevention and treatment.

Project description:Male sterility is an important trait in hybrid crop breeding. Thermo-sensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) lines, which are male-sterile at restrictive (high) temperatures but convert to male-fertile at permissive (low) temperatures, have been widely utilized in two-line hybrid rice breeding. However, the molecular mechanism underlying TGMS remains unclear. Here we show that the rice (Oryza sativa L.) thermo-sensitive genic male sterile gene 5 (tms5) locus, which in 2010 was present in cultivars occupying more than 80% (2.6 million hectares) of two-line hybrid rice-growing land in China, confers the TGMS trait through a loss-of-function mutation of RNase ZS1, resulting in failure to mediate mRNA decay of three temperature-responsive ubiquitin fusion ribosomal protein L40 genes (UbL40) genes. RNase ZS1, a member of the evolutionarily conserved endonuclease, processed tRNAs in vitro, but does not do so in vivo due to its localization in the cytoplasm. Defective RNase ZS1 in tms5 plants leads to over-accumulation of UbL401, UbL402 and UbL404 mRNAs at restrictive but not permissive temperatures. Over-expression of UbL401 and UbL404 in wild-type plants caused male sterility, whereas knockdown of UbL401 and UbL404 in tms5 plants partially restored the male fertility at restrictive temperatures. Our results uncover a novel mechanism of RNase ZS1-mediated UbL40 mRNA decay which controls TGMS in rice and has potential applications not only of rice but also of other crops. To address whether RNase ZS1 involves in mRNA metabolism, degradome sequencing was performed using RNA from young panicles of wild type (ZH11) and tms5 (Os02g12290iL1) plants grown at restrictive temperatures.
