5CAPture-seq: a method for enriching full-length cDNA and identifying 5′ capped nucleotides

ABSTRACT: Current transcriptomic methods for mapping 5′-ends of eukaryotic RNA employ only 5′-end enriched samples. The absence of a matched unenriched control limits the ability to distinguish genuine 5′ ends from incomplete cDNAs. We developed a transcriptomic method based on sequencing of cDNA enriched for full-length fragments and an unenriched control. From the mapped sequence reads, enrichment scores are calculated for all transcribed nucleotides and a statistical model of the enrichment constructed. We tested the method in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Data were obtained from ring, trophozoite and schizont stages of the parasite intra-erythrocytic development cycle. Two groups of 5′ capped nucleotides were assigned by unsupervised clustering. The first group contains sites located mostly outside of annotated protein-coding exons in regions of high local nucleosomal occupancy, but low occupancies of ribosome and elongating RNA polymerase II. The majority of sites in the second group are intra-exonic and show different patterns, most notably a peak of ribosome occupancy centered on the 5′ end position and a biased representation among codons possibly prone to ribosome stalling. Our method can be used to annotate 5′ capped nucleotides, including intra-exonic nucleotides that can be distinguished from incomplete cDNA artifacts.

Ribothrypsis, a novel process of canonical mRNA decay, mediates ribosome-phased mRNA endonucleolysis.

Project description:By developing Akron-Seq, a novel approach that captures native 3' and 5' ends of capped and polyadenylated RNAs respectively, we show that canonical human mRNAs are subject to repeated, cotranslational, ribosome-phased, endonucleolytic cuts in a process that we term ribothrypsis.

Full-length RNA profiling of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with SEnd-seq

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a bacterial pathogen that causes tuberculosis (TB), an infectious disease that inflicts major health and economic costs around the world. Mtb encounters diverse environments during its lifecycle and responds to these changes by reprogramming its transcriptional output. However, the mechanisms and regulation of Mtb transcription remains poorly understood. In this work, we simultaneously determine the 5' and 3' ends of individual RNA molecules in Mtb cells using the SEnd-seq method, which enables us to profile the Mtb transcriptome at high resolution. Unexpectedly, we find that most Mtb transcripts are incomplete, with their 5' ends aligned at transcription start sites and 3' ends located 200-500 nucleotides downstream. Using native elongating transcript sequencing, we show that these short RNAs are mainly associated with paused RNA polymerases (RNAPs) rather than products of premature termination. We further show that the high propensity of Mtb RNAP to pause early in transcription is dependent on the binding of the sigma factor. Finally, we show that a translating ribosome promotes transcription elongation, suggesting a role for transcription-translation coupling in Mtb gene expression. In sum, our findings depict a mycobacterial transcriptome that prominently features incomplete transcripts resulting from RNAP pausing. We propose that the pausing phase constitutes an important transcriptional checkpoint in Mtb that allows the bacterium to adapt to new environments and could be exploited for TB therapeutics.

Sequencing the cap-snatching repertoire of H1N1 influenza provides insight into the mechanism of viral transcription initiation

Project description:The influenza polymerase cleaves host RNAs ~10–13 nucleotides downstream of their 5′ ends and uses this capped fragment to prime viral mRNA synthesis. To better understand this process of cap snatching, we used high-throughput sequencing to determine the 5′ ends of A/WSN/33 (H1N1) influenza mRNAs. The sequences provided clear evidence for nascent-chain realignment during transcription initiation and revealed a strong influence of the viral template on the frequency of realignment. After accounting for the extra nucleotides inserted through realignment, analysis of the capped fragments indicated that the different viral mRNAs were each prepended with a common set of sequences and that the polymerase often cleaved host RNAs after a purine and often primed transcription on a single base pair to either the terminal or penultimate residue of the viral template. We also developed a bioinformatic approach to identify the targeted host transcripts despite limited information content within snatched fragments and found that small nuclear RNAs and small nucleolar RNAs contributed the most abundant capped leaders. These results provide insight into the mechanism of viral transcription initiation and reveal the diversity of the cap-snatched repertoire, showing that noncoding transcripts as well as mRNAs are used to make influenza mRNAs.

Characterization of human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum eIF4E homologue and mRNA 5â² cap status

Project description:The mRNA 5â² cap is normally essential for eukaryotic mRNA translation, stabilization and transport and both the cap and eIF4E are important elements of post-transcriptional gene regulation. To further our understanding of mRNA translation in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, we have investigated the parasite translation initiation factor eIF4E and its interaction with 5â² capped mRNA. We have purified P. falciparum eIF4E as a recombinant protein and demonstrated that it has canonical mRNA 5â² cap binding activity. We used this protein to purify P. falciparum full-length 5â² capped mRNAs from total parasite RNA. Microarray analysis comparing total and eIF4E-purified 5â² capped mRNAs shows that a subset of 34 features were more than two-fold under-represented in the purified RNA sample, including 19 features representative of nuclear transcripts. The uncapped nuclear transcripts may represent a class of mRNAs targeted for storage and cap removal. Keywords: total RNA vs purified capped mRNA The microarray data were obtained from four hybridizations using RNA from two independent GST-PfeIF4E purifications from separate malaria cultures.

FFPEcap-seq: a method for sequencing capped RNAs in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples

Project description:The majority of clinical cancer specimens are preserved as formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples. In order for clinical molecular tests to have wide reaching impact, they must be applicable to FFPE material. Accurate quantitative measurements of RNA derived from FFPE specimens is challenging due to low yields and high amounts of degradation. Here we present FFPEcap-seq, a method specifically designed for sequencing capped 5’ ends of RNA derived from FFPE samples. FFPEcap-seq combines enzymatic enrichment of 5’ capped RNAs with template switching to create sequencing libraries. We find that FFPEcap-seq can faithfully capture mRNA expression levels in FFPE specimens while also detecting enhancer RNAs that arise from distal regulatory regions. FFPEcap-seq is a fast and straightforward method for making high quality 5’ end RNA-seq libraries from FFPE-derived RNA.

Genome-wide mapping of transcription initiation in the asexual stages of Toxoplasma gondii

Project description:The lack of a comprehensive map of transcription start sites in Toxoplasma gondii has impeded advances in decrypting the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of gene expression. Genome-wide approaches for mapping transcription initiation have been instrumental in defining the determinants of transcription initiation in a range of model eukaryotes. We used a protocol for 5′-end RNA sequencing, called RAMPAGE, to sequence the 5′-ends of capped mRNA from ME49 and RH tachyzoites, as well as from ME49 bradyzoites. This allowed us to generate maps of transcription initiation events at single-nucleotide resolution across the asexual stages of the parasite.
