RNAi knock down of GW182 in Drososphila cells compared to cells with knock down of AGO1, a key effector of miRNA-mediated gene silencing


ABSTRACT: RNA silencing pathways are conserved gene regulation mechanisms that lead to degradation, translational repression or transcriptional silencing of target-transcripts selected based on complementarity with small RNA molecules. Using firefly luciferase reporters, we previously were able show that the RNA binding protein GW182 plays a role in microRNA-mediated gene silencing (Rehwinkel, J. et al., RNA J. 2005). In this study, we provide further evidence for the role GW182 in the miRNA pathway by determining targets regulated by this protein at the genomic level. We examined expression profiles in Drosophila cells depleted of GW182 and compared these profiles to data obtained from cells depleted of AGO1, a key effector of miRNA-mediated gene silencing.

mRNA degradation by miRNAs and GW182 requires both CCR4:NOT deadenylase and DCP1:DCP2 decapping complexes.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) silence the expression of target genes post-transcriptionally. Their function is mediated by the Argonaute proteins (AGOs), which colocalize to P-bodies with mRNA degradation enzymes. Mammalian P-bodies are also marked by the GW182 protein, which interacts with the AGOs and is required for miRNA function. We show that depletion of GW182 leads to changes in mRNA expression profiles strikingly similar to those observed in cells depleted of the essential Drosophila miRNA effector  ...[more]
