A snoRNA-tRNA modification network governs codon-biased cellular states.

ABSTRACT: The dynamic balance between tRNA supply and codon usage demand is a fundamental principle in the cellular translation economy. However, the regulation and functional consequences of this balance remain unclear. Here, we use PARIS2 interactome capture, structure modeling, conservation analysis, RNA-protein interaction analysis, and modification mapping to reveal the targets of hundreds of snoRNAs, many of which were previously considered orphans. We identify a snoRNA-tRNA interaction network that is required for global tRNA modifications, including 2'-O-methylation and others. Loss of Fibrillarin, the snoRNA-guided 2'-O-methyltransferase, induces global upregulation of tRNA fragments, a large group of regulatory RNAs. In particular, the snoRNAs D97/D133 guide the 2'-O-methylation of multipl
