A nuclear export block triggers the decay of newly synthesized polyadenylated RNA

ABSTRACT: Genomes are promiscuously transcribed, necessitating mechanisms that facilitate the sorting of RNA for function or destruction. The polyA (pA) tail is one such distinguishing feature, which in the S. cerevisiae nucleus is bound by the Nab2p protein, yielding transcript protection. As Nab2p also contacts the main nuclear export factor Mex67p, we asked whether transport kinetics contributes to RNA sorting. Indeed, 3’end sequencing of newly transcribed pA+ RNAs demonstrates that nuclear depletion of Mex67p elicits their instant and global decay. A similar phenotype is evident upon inactivation of other export factors and proportional to the amount of nuclear pA+ RNA. Since RNA production is partially rescued by Nab2p over-expression, we propose that an export-block out-titrates Nab2p onto nuclear retained pA+ RNA, reducing the pool of Nab2p free to protect new transcripts. More generally, we suggest that nuclear RNA decay, negotiated by Nab2p availability, aids in balancing cellular transcript supply with demand.

The RNA exosome adaptor protein ZFC3H1 functionally competes with nuclear export activity to retain target transcripts

Project description:Mammalian genomes are promiscuously transcribed, yielding protein-coding and non-coding products. Many transcripts are short-lived due to their nuclear degradation by the ribonucleolytic RNA exosome. Here, we show that abolished nuclear exosome function causes the formation of distinct nuclear foci, containing polyadenylated (pA+) RNA secluded from nucleocytoplasmic export. We asked whether exosome co-factors could serve such nuclear retention. Co-localization studies revealed the enrichment of pA+ RNA foci with ‘pA-tail exosome targeting (PAXT) connection’ components MTR4, ZFC3H1 and PABPN1, but no overlap with known nuclear structures, such as Cajal bodies, speckles, paraspeckles or nucleoli. Interestingly, ZFC3H1 is required for foci formation, and in its absence selected pA+ RNAs, including coding and non-coding transcripts, are exported to the cytoplasm in a process dependent on the mRNA export factor AlyREF. Our results establish ZFC3H1 as a central nuclear RNA retention factor, counteracting nuclear export activity.

An extended PAXT connection is required for turnover of nuclear polyadenylated RNA in human cells

Project description:Recruitment of the human ribonucleolytic RNA exosome to nuclear polyadenylated (pA+) RNA is facilitated by the Poly(A) Tail eXosome Targeting (PAXT) connection. Besides its core dimer, formed by the exosome co-factor MTR4 and the ZFC3H1 protein, the PAXT connection remains poorly defined. By characterizing nuclear pA+-RNA bound proteomes as well as MTR4-ZFC3H1 containing complexes in conditions favoring PAXT assembly, we here uncover three additional proteins required for PAXT function: ZC3H3, RBM26/RBM27 and the known PAXT-associated protein, PABPN1. The zinc-finger protein ZC3H3 interacts directly with MTR4-ZFC3H1 and loss of either identified PAXT component results in the accumulation of PAXT substrates. Collectively, our results establish new factors involved in the turnover of nuclear pA+ RNA and suggest that these are limiting for PAXT activity.

Integrator restraints paraspeckles assembly by promoting the 3’-end processing of the polyadenylated lncRNA NEAT1_1

Project description:Alternative 3’-end RNA processing provides an important source of transcriptome diversification, which impacts various biological processes and the etiology of diseases, including cancer. Here, we focused on a transcript isoform switch that leads to the readthrough expression of the long noncoding RNA NEAT1_2, at the expense of the shorter polyadenylated transcript NEAT1_1. Expression of NEAT1_2 is required for the formation of paraspeckles (PS), nuclear bodies that protect cancer cells from oncogene-induced replication stress and chemotherapy. Searching for proteins that interact with endogenous NEAT1 by RNA Affinity Purification coupled to mass spectrometry (RAP-MS), we identified factors involved in the 3’-end processing of polyadenylated (pA+) RNA as well as several components of the Integrator complex, known to process the 3’-ends of RNAs lacking polyadenylation sites. Unexpectedly, genetic perturbation experiments established that Integrator restraints NEAT1_2 expression, and thereby PS assembly, by promoting the 3’-end processing of pA+ NEAT1_1. Consistently, low expression levels of several Integrator subunits correlated with poorer prognosis of cancer patients exposed to chemotherapeutics. Our study identifies Integrator as a key regulator of PS biogenesis and highlights a previously unrecognized ability of the complex to process pA+ RNA. The data also establish a link between Integrator, cancer biology and chemosensitivity, which may be exploited therapeutically.

Trypanosomes can initiate nuclear export co-transcriptionally

Project description:The nuclear envelope serves as important mRNA surveillance system. In yeast and human, several control systems act in parallel to prevent nuclear export of unprocessed mRNAs. Trypanosomes lack homologues to most of the involved proteins and their nuclear mRNA metabolism is non-conventional exemplified by polycistronic transcription and mRNA processing by trans-splicing. We here visualised nuclear export in trypanosomes by probing large, endogenous mRNA by intramolecular multi-colour single molecule FISH (smFISH). In addition, unspliced mRNAs were visualised by co-probing two adjacent introns or intergenic regions. We found that the initation of nuclear export requires neither the completion of transcription nor trans-splicing. Nevertheless, the inhibition of trans-splicing blocked cytoplasmic transport of the of unspliced mRNAs and only a small fraction reached the nucleus-distant cytoplasm. Most of the unspliced transcripts remained at the nuclear periphery, within transport and in nuclear periphery granules (NPGs) localised at the cytoplasmic site of nuclear pores that resemble stress granules in composition. Our work shows that, in striking contrast to other eukaryotes, trypanosomes can start nuclear export while the mRNA is still transcribed, but unspliced transcripts remain ‘stuck’ in nuclear pores, probably awaiting processing or decay. Our data indicate that trypanosomes regulate the completion of nuclear export rather than the start.

Comprehensive Analysis of Nucleocytoplasmic Dynamics of mRNA in Drosophila cells

Project description:Eukaryotic mRNAs undergo a cycle of transcription, nuclear export, and degradation. A major challenge is to obtain a global, quantitative view of these processes. Here we measured the genome-wide nucleocytoplasmic dynamics of mRNA in Drosophila cells by metabolic labeling in combination with cellular fractionation. By mathematical modeling of these data we determined rates of transcription, export and cytoplasmic decay for >5,000 genes. We characterized these kinetic rates and investigated links with mRNA features, RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and chromatin states. We found prominent correlations between mRNA decay rate and transcript size, while nuclear export rates are linked to the size of the 3'UTR. Transcription, export and decay rates are each associated with distinct spectra of RBPs. Specific classes of genes, such as those encoding cytoplasmic ribosomal proteins, exhibit characteristic combinations of rate constants, suggesting modular control. Overall, transcription and decay rates have a major impact on transcript abundance, while nuclear export is of minor importance. Finally, correlations between rate constants suggest global coordination between the three processes. Our approach should be generally applicable to other cell systems and provides insights into the genome-wide nucleocytoplasmic kinetics of mRNA.

The Deubiquitylase Ubp15 Couples Transcription to mRNA Export

Project description:The nuclear export of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) is intimately coupled to their synthesis. pre-mRNAs assemble into dynamic ribonucleoparticles as they are being transcribed, processed and exported. The role of ubiquitylation in this process is increasingly recognized as the ubiquitylation of many key players have been shown to affect mRNA nuclear export. While a few E3 ligases have been shown to regulate nuclear export, evidence for deubiquitylases is currently lacking. Here, we identified the deubiquitylase Ubp15 as a regulator of nuclear export in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Ubp15 interacts both with RNA polymerase II and with the nuclear pore complex, and its deletion reverts the nuclear export defect of mutants of the E3 ligase Rsp5. The deletion of UBP15 leads to hyper-ubiquitylation of the main nuclear export receptor Mex67 and affects its association with THO, a complex coupling transcription to mRNA processing and involved in the recruitment of mRNA export factors to nascent transcripts. Collectively, our data support a role for Ubp15 in coupling transcription to mRNA export.

Distinct and redundant roles of nuclear RNA exosome targeting complexes

Project description:Degradation of transcripts in mammalian nuclei is primarily facilitated by the RNA exosome. To obtain substrate specificity, the exosome is aided by adaptors; in the nucleoplasm, the Nuclear EXosome Targeting (NEXT) complex and the PolyA (pA) eXsome Targeting (PAXT) connection. However, how exact targeting is achieved remains enigmatic. Employing high-resolution 3’end sequencing of both steady state and newly produced pA+ and pA- RNA, we demonstrate that NEXT substrates arise from heterogenous and predominantly pA- 3’ends often covering kb-wide genomic regions. In contrast, PAXT targets harbor well-defined pA+ 3’ends defined by canonical pA site usage. Irrespective this clear division, NEXT and PAXT act redundantly in two ways: i) Regional redundancy: The majority of exosome-targeted transcription units produce both NEXT- and PAXT-sensitive RNA isoforms; and ii) Isoform redundancy: The PAXT connection ensures the fail-safe decay of post-transcriptionally polyadenylated NEXT targets. In conjunction, this provides for the efficient nuclear removal of superfluous RNA.

Specialization of the Drosophila nuclear export family protein, Nxf3, for piRNA precursor export

Project description:The piRNA pathway is a conserved small RNA-based immune system that protects animal germ cell genomes from the harmful effects of transposon mobilisation. In Drosophila ovaries, most piRNAs originate from dual-strand clusters, which generate piRNAs from both genomic strands. Dual-strand clusters use non-canonical transcription mechanisms. Although transcribed by RNA polymerase II, cluster transcripts lack splicing signatures and polyA tails. mRNA processing is important for general mRNA export mediated by Nuclear export factor 1. Although UAP56, a component of the transcription and export complex, has been implicated in piRNA precursor export, it remains unknown how dual-strand cluster transcripts are specifically targeted for piRNA biogenesis by export from the nucleus to cytoplasmic processing centers. Here we report that dual-strand cluster transcript export requires CG13741/Bootlegger and the Drosophila Nuclear export factor family protein, Nxf3. Bootlegger is specifically recruited to piRNA clusters and in turn brings Nxf3. We find that Nxf3 specifically binds to piRNA precursors and is essential for their export to piRNA biogenesis sites, a process that is critical for germline transposon silencing. Our data shed light on how dual-strand clusters bypass canonical mRNA features to be specifically exported via Nxf3, ensuring proper piRNA production

Canonical poly(A) polymerase activity promotes the decay of a wide variety of mammalian nuclear RNAs

Project description:The human nuclear poly(A)-binding protein PABPN1 has been implicated in the decay of nuclear noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). In addition, PABPN1 stimulates hyperadenylation by poly(A) polymerase, and this activity is thought to be required for decay. Here, we inactivated hyperadenylation by two distinct mechanisms and examined changes in gene expression in HEK293 cells by RNAseq. We observed the upregulation of various ncRNAs, including snoRNA host genes, primary miRNA transcripts, and upstream antisense RNAs, confirming that hyperadenylation is broadly required for the degradation of PABPN1-targets. In addition, we found that mRNAs with retained introns are susceptible to PABPN1 and PAPα/γ-mediated decay (PPD). Transcripts are targeted for degradation due to inefficient export, which is a consequence of reduced intron number or incomplete splicing. We conclude that PPD is an important mammalian nuclear RNA decay pathway for the removal of poorly spliced and nuclear-retained transcripts.
